Pastor Bob's Coffee Break

Dear Pastor Bob: As a fellow pastor, I know at different times the Lord will direct us to new works and new ministries. Also, we find that not every church that we accept to pastor is always a good fit. Regardless, we try to serve the best we can and pray that God does mighty works in the congregations where we are. I am currently pastoring a small church with a lot of older people who are not able to do much. I have some that are younger that just don't help. That leaves me and my wife to have to be pastor, secretary, cleaning crew, handyman, yardman, and so many other hats. Despite sermons asking and showing people that we are supposed to serve, those that are able still just don't.The people keep reminding us that they want things the way they were under the last pastor who quit suddenly because he and his family were overworked.This has become a major thorn in our flesh and is starting to cause us to feel resentful towards the people. It is also causing me to be angry with God for putting me there. So how do you know when it's time to just move on from a particular work? We all say that we don't want to leave until God releases us, but I fear that if we continue to stay that our feelings of resentment will grow until it harms this church more than helps.

Dear Pastor Bob: I love your YouTube channel which I just discovered last week. Thank you for the work you’re doing. I have a question for you that I’ve been struggling with for most of my life. Although I’ve been a believer in Jesus since I was a young child, I’ve always had great difficulty believing in God’s goodness. I know God has blessed me in many ways throughout my life but I can’t seem to stop this belief that God is somewhat cruel since He allowed sin and suffering into His creation. I always wonder why He wrote so much evil into His story since He’s so opposed to it and could have prevented it. I also can’t let go of the belief that Hell is unjust and cruel. The punishment of eternal torment for temporal sins doesn’t seem fair no matter how hard I try to rationalize it. These beliefs which I can’t seem to change cause me to doubt my salvation because I wonder if they mean I’ve not fully repented. But can any human ever FULLY repent 100%? I always have and continue to confess my sins every day, and I always acknowledge that Jesus died for my sins yet I still harbor a strong resentment towards God deep down in a dark corner my sinful heart. I’ve prayed for years for God to remove these beliefs but they have only grown stronger over time. I’ve received much pastoral counseling for this over decades yet I can’t seem to defeat these beliefs. The past five years have been extraordinarily difficult for me and my family which have caused me to become extremely angry with God, and His prolonged silence makes me feel abandoned by Him. Most of my life I’ve battled a crippling depression that has wreaked havoc on myself and also on my family. I can honestly say that I don’t know one believer who shares these dark feelings with me, and that makes me feel completely hopeless and isolated. I feel buried under a million heavy boulders and have lost sight of God. My faith has hit rock bottom. Today's Scripture: Isaiah 55:8-9 WHO IS PASTOR BOB? Heavy Metal Pastor. Homeless Advocate.

Dear Pastor Bob: If a husband is the breadwinner of his family, should he have to do stuff when he gets home from his job? I work between 50-65 hours per week. Sometimes a little more. I work a hard job both mentally and physically in the health care business. When I come home from work, my wife often has a to-do list for me. Some pastors I have talked to said that I shouldn’t be expected to lift a finger with house chores since I work a lot at my job. Also, I want to lay down shortly after I get home because work makes me tired. My wife doesn’t need to work outside the home because I make enough. Thatis what some would consider a traditional wife. So because of this, some say that if my wife doesn’t work outside of the home, that she is expected to do everything in the house before I get home from work. What are your thoughts on that? What advice would you have for me from a Biblical perspective? Today's Scripture: Ephesians 5:25 WHO IS PASTOR BOB? Heavy Metal Pastor. Homeless Advocate. Author. Speaker. Media Influencer.

Hello Pastor Bob! First – I, as well as many others, enjoy the Pastor Bob Coffee Breaks and look forward to them on a daily basis – Thank you!! What is your opinion on AI (Artificial Intelligence)? So much is being done with it – in various forms of Art & Music – that it won’t be long before it is more commonplace.ChatGPTis a natural language processing tool driven by AI technology that allows you to have human-like conversations and much more with the chatbot. The language model can answer questions and assist you with tasks, such as composing emails, essays, and code. I’m sure you have heard about the AI educational uses students have been taking advantage of with term papers and other assignments. The latest trend sweeping TikTok is to run code on an A.I. painting bot and “ask it” to draw various things based on the parameters you read it.Depending on the coding, the machine will create a digital painting predicated on a particular artists style. There’s also been music based on different artist’s styles using AI. The question is: how do you foresee this impacting Christianity? Some think AI could be a Pandora’s Box into the occult world…I’d appreciate hearing your take on this subject. I asked AIChatbot ... "Write a 3-point Bible Study on the dangers of AI." This Bible study aims to explore three key points that highlight the dangers of AI and how we can navigate them in light of biblical principles. Point 1: The Limitations of Human Wisdom Proverbs 3:5-6 - AI is designed to mimic human intelligence, but it lacks the wisdom and discernment that comes from a relationship with God. - Relying solely on AI for decision-making can lead to a dangerous dependence on human inventions rather than seeking God's guidance. - As Christians, we must remember that true wisdom comes from God, and we should always seek His counsel above any artificial intelligence. Point 2: Ethical Concerns and Human Dignity Genesis 1:27 - AI possesses the potential to infringe upon human dignity and ethical boundaries. - The use of AI in surveillance, warfare, or other areas can compromise privacy, autonomy, and justice. - Scripture teaches us that every human being is created in the image of God, and we must be cautious not to allow AI to undermine this fundamental truth. Point 3: Spiritual Deception and Idolatry Exodus 20:3-5 - AI can tempt us to place our trust in human creations rather than in God alone. - The increasing integration of AI in our lives may lead to a subtle form of idolatry, where we attribute divine-like qualities to AI systems. - We are called to worship and serve God alone, guarding our hearts against any form of idolatry, including the undue veneration of AI. Conclusion: While AI brings numerous advancements and benefits, it is essential to be aware of the potential dangers it poses. As Christians, we should approach AI with discernment, recognizing its limitations and potential ethical concerns. By seeking God's wisdom, upholding human dignity, and guarding against spiritual deception, we can navigate the dangers of AI and ensure that our faith remains rooted in God's truth. † WE ARE METAL \m/ WE ARE FAMILY † WHO IS PASTOR BOB?

Dear Pastor Bob: I am struggling with frustration and disappointment with God. There are so many things in my life that have gone wrong. It seems like I can't get a break.

Dear Pastor Bob: There are some pastors who preach a lot of fire and brimstone in order to persuade sinners to come to Christ. It oftenseems like pitchforks from the pulpitthe way the pastorsscream their way through their sermons on hell. Is this a good way to win souls into the Kingdom? Some pastors will defend their hardcorepreaching by saying that Jesus spoke more about hell than He did aboutHeaven. This scares a lot of people away from the Church.

Dear Pastor Bob: Do you ever feel like before and after photos for testimonies are un necessary? Often times I see people post them and I actually think that they may be a stumbling block to some - especially if the photo is promiscuous. For me, I was a metalhead before I was a Christian and I am a Christian metalhead now! If I were to show you a picture of me back then, it would look like ...well …. ME!!

Dear Pastor Bob: I’m sure there are many opinions and variations regarding an answer to the following question, but I was hoping for it to be answered in a public forum, such as your platforms, because I know I’m not the only Christian to have trouble wrapping my head around it. Being that the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit form the trinity, and Jesus was God in human form here on the Earth, why did Jesus pray to the Father in the Garden of Gethsemane to take away the burden of the impending crucifixion from Him?

Hi Pastor Bob, I saw a coffee break you did, and you were talking about how God was calling you to be celibate. I was wondering the same thing, I've been single for three years and it wasn't for lack of trying. If this is the case, I can accept it completely. I just wanted to ask how you knew for sure.

Dear Pastor Bob: I was the victim of sexual abuse by my cousin. I went through secrecy being brought up as a nice and modest person, being used in all walks of life until now, as I turned 39 this year. I ran away from the pain to alcohol, drugs (mainly cannabis) and gambling. I became an addict the first time I took a sip of beer and was drinking strong alcohol that same night at around 13 years old. After God releasing me of that at age 25 I remained a junkie for almost 14 years on and off. The pain went into a constant chronic physical one I´ve carried for 20 years after I broke my back at 19. I also missed most of my daughters life after my spouse cheated on me and took my daughter to another city 200 miles away and me to court twice to get sole custody. God has released me of most addictions starting this year, yet pornography remains after my abuser showed me some as early as 4-5 year old and assaulted me several times. How do I rid myself of the pain of my immediate family also not believing me and ending up in mental asylums several times and having a demonic voice still in my head? How do I start to forgive when I fantasize of cutting off his manly parts and the voice telling me "you´re gay?"

Dear Pastor Bob: The Bible tells us to obey the law of the land. How far should we take that?It is technically against the law of the land to drive 5mph over the speed limit, but most of us do it. In most cities, they have a limit as to how many pets you can legally own. We have manymore pets than what is legally allowed. Mostly cats and a couple of dogs. Is that violating the Bible’s command to obey the law of the land? I personally do not think it is wrong, immoral, or even a sin to own many pets. But if we have to violate the law of the land to do it, what would God think about that? In my opinion, a house isn’t the place for excess pets. There are barns for that. The reason we have so many cats is because we want to be a sanctuary for them, and provide them a safe place off the streets. Does God honor that? Do you have any thoughts or advice on this?

Dear Pastor Bob: I am a big fan of the Chosen, and even donated money to the show since it is 100% crowd funded. Recently, there was a controversy, where in one of their promotional videos a camera man was shown flying a small pride flag. When fans objected, the creator of the show refused to edit it out and instead defended his camera man. I feel like Christians are fighting a battle against an evil and depraved culture these days, and when a "Christian show" allows something like that in, it sends the wrong message to the world.

Dear Pastor Bob: What does the Bible say about tithing 10% toChristian charities such as feeding hungry children, Salvation Army, Homeless Ministries,OperationChristmas, etc.? Some pastors in the Christian Church say that our offerings cango those things, but that our tithe should go to a local Church for it tocount as a Biblical tithe. They argue that we need to tithe to a local Church because of building expenses and maintenance. They teach that Godblesses those who tithe in this way. They sayits Kingdom Business.

Dear Pastor Bob: This may sound silly, but should we as Christians thump the Bible? I ask because whenever we try and share our faith with people, they often accuse of us of being nothing but a bunchBible thumpers. How do we overcome this? How do we share our faith without cramming it down people’s throats? How do we get them to want to hear what we have to say?Some say we should preach with our actions because they speak louder.But aren’t words necessary too?

Dear Pastor Bob: One of my daughters is thinking herself as a healer and is into the 11:11 Awaking Code. I don't know how to explain what I don't understand. Do you know what she is doing? In my heart I think it is wrong. What do you have to say about it? 1. The word of God is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path (Psalm 119:105) 2. I can see where I’m going because I have Jesus with me (Psalm 119:105) 3. I have the mind of Christ (Romans 12:2) 4. I am a new creation, the old has gone (2 Corinthians 5:17) 5. God has good plans for me (Jeremiah 29:11) 6. I am safe from harm because God protects me (Psalm 91:1) 7. God is my rock and my shield (Psalm 18:2) 8. I am alive and awake to what God is doing in me and through me (John 4:23) † WE ARE METAL \m/ WE ARE FAMILY † WHO IS PASTOR BOB? Heavy Metal Pastor. Homeless Advocate. Author. Speaker.

Dear Pastor Bob: I suffer from severe depression and anxiety disorder. As is stereotypical, I am on a large amount of medication. It has taken many years for that medication regiment to get worked out to where it is most effective. But, in the process, I was told by several Christians that if I had enough faith I would not need to take all that medication. I disagree, as I believe doctors were put on this planet by God as well. Their purpose is to heal Christians and non-christians alike. We all suffer from various problems, and we all need healing. Depression is just another problem like so many other problems. My question is: what is your opinion on having to take medication? I know how I am without medication, and I also know how I am on proper medication, and I function far better with the medication than I do without it.

Dear Pastor Bob: Yesterday my friend who has anxiety & depression was told from a fellow Christian that depression is an evil spirit and can be prayed for and be free from it all together. I believe in the Bible. We have the power through Jesus to do that but is it really an evil spirit? In these uncertain days with all kinds of anxiety, panic disorders and depression, we should be hard at work as Christians I think? So what is your take on this?

Dear Pastor Bob:Why does God care about some people and then seem to forget and not care about others?I have asked God from my heart countless times to deliver me from sexual sin. He just doesn't do it. I need God to take away the desire completely in order to be successful. I can't do it! I feel like God wants me to go to hell instead of delivering me so I can go to heaven. It's very frustrating. I'm on the brink of just giving up and living life.Romans 9:18 comes to mind. Seems very unloving of God to love some people and then Harden the hearts of others so they go to hell. I find that ridiculous and unloving!

Dear Pastor Bob: Please pray that God would help me break an addiction I have had since I was a teenager - the addiction of pornography. Sadly, It effects a lot of my generation. It has a deep stronghold on me. I was such a fool and fell for it, not thinking it was that big of a deal.I can tell you now that it is absolutely a big deal.I went through a severe mental issue recently, which I believe was brought on by the Lord to chasten me back to him.The only thing that would comfort me and keep me sane was reading the Bible.I never want to get out of fellowship with him again, and I know that I have to rid this addiction from my life.So I ask you to please put me on your prayer list.I know the only thing that can help me overcome this intense sin is help through the Holy Spirit. And I know there is power in prayer. Today's Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 † WE ARE METAL \m/ WE ARE FAMILY † WHO IS PASTOR BOB? Heavy Metal Pastor. Homeless Advocate. Author. Speaker.

Dear Paster Bob: I faithfully watch all of the podcasts on Sanctuary International Matrix. I look forward to each one. I have a lot of respect for all of you. Recently, one of the podcasts talked about something that seems contrary to your teaching. It has bothered me a lot. I don't know who to believe now, since I have a lot of respect for all of you.
