1. Does the gospel impact my life in any practical way, or is it just about me getting to heaven?

2. When God was giving Cain his punishment after he murdered his brother Abel, who were the people he was afraid would kill him?

3. What is the origin of demons?

4. My husband died a year ago and I have met someone whose spouse also died not so long ago. Is it wrong or insensitive to think about remarriage this soon?

5. How do you explain what it means to be made in the image of God?

6. When we refer to God or pray to him, how should we address him? Should we refer to him as God or the Father only, or can you name the other persons of the trinity?

7. I have been to churches that dance and clap during the worship service. What is your opinion on these kinds of postures in worship?

Core Christianity: Finding Yourself in God's Story by Michael Horton

8 THINGS EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT CHURCH


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.
