1. Is there a difference between the Old Covenant law and the Law of Christ?

2. Did Jesus literally go to hell after he was crucified?

3. How do I talk to a loved one who is marrying someone who is not a Christian?

4. Can Christians experience demon possession?

5. I recently have heard a lot of Christian leaders and writers warn against empathizing with other people. They warn that empathizing, feeling another person's pain, leaves you open to being manipulated emotionally. I don't really understand this, is empathy really a sin and should Christians be concerned about this?

6. Why was Jacob blessed instead of Esau?

POWER WITH EMPATHY: THE BEAUTY OF JESUS


In a world filled with complex and often unsettling questions, Core Christianity offers a grounded space for thoughtful exploration. Hosted by Pastor Adriel Sanchez, this podcast directly engages with the difficult inquiries people are actually asking about faith, life, and scripture. Each episode is built on the conviction that honest questions deserve thoughtful, biblical answers. Sanchez doesn’t just aim to demonstrate the truth of Christian teaching; he delves into why these ancient beliefs remain profoundly good and beautiful for modern life. Listening feels like having a compassionate and knowledgeable guide, one who helps untangle theological knots with clarity and grace. This isn't about superficial platitudes, but about rediscovering the foundational, historic truths that have sustained believers for centuries. Through these conversations, the Core Christianity podcast seeks to provide more than just information-it aims to impart a genuine sense of comfort from the gospel message, fostering both confidence and practical wisdom for everyday living. It’s for anyone, whether long-time believer or curious skeptic, who wants to understand the heart of Christian faith beyond the cultural noise.
