From choosing a Bible translation and navigating unanswered prayer to biblical marriage, divorce, raising kids in church, cremation, and the resurrection, Pastor Grant shares practical wisdom rooted in Scripture.

What Should Christians Believe About Culture & Politics? | You Asked For It In this episode of the It’s Life Podcast, Pastor Grant is answering your questions about some of the most important and challenging issues facing Christians today. How should followers of Jesus respond to a changing culture? What role should our faith play in politics? How do we stand firmly on biblical truth while still loving people well? Pastor Grant tackles questions surrounding faith, culture, politics, marriage, sexuality, Islam, and more, helping us think biblically about issues that can often feel complicated or controversial. Our goal isn’t to follow a political party or simply go along with culture. It’s to look to God’s Word and ask, “What does the Bible say?” If you’ve ever wondered how Christians should navigate today’s cultural and political conversations with both truth and grace, this episode is for you.

We’re joined by AJ Stevens (Next Gen Pastor), Pastor Z Hall (Fairview Heights Campus Pastor), and Zachary Ethridge (Smithfield Campus Pastor) for a powerful conversation on why we can still believe that Jesus rose from the dead in 2026. In a world full of questions and skepticism, we lean into the truth of the resurrection and what it means for our lives today. This conversation is all about building confidence in our faith, understanding the reality of the resurrection, and being reminded that our hope is not built on tradition, but on truth. Together, we unpack why the resurrection still matters, how it impacts the way we live right now, and why it continues to change lives today. Whether you’ve followed Jesus for years or you’re just beginning to ask questions, this conversation is for you. Our prayer is that this episode stirs your heart with fresh expectation and excitement for Easter—and helps you clearly see the miracle of Jesus rising from the dead. Because of the resurrection, we don’t just have a story—we have a reason to celebrate.  Subscribe, share with a friend, and join us as we discover how real love is lived out every day!
