With the quick tap of the finger, we can access an endless stream of addictive information. Accessing information has never been easier—but acquiring wisdom is increasingly difficult. In an effort to help us consume a more balanced, healthy diet of information, Brett has created the “Wisdom Pyramid,” challenging us to increase our intake of enduring, trustworthy sources (like the Bible) while moderating our consumption of less reliable sources (like the Internet and social media). Brett helps us with a healthier approach at a time when so much of our daily media diet is toxic and making us spiritually sick. You’ll walk away from this conversation uplifted and encouraged.

He attended Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas. After graduating from Austin College in Texas, Becket moved to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of writing and acting, finding success in both. He eventually went on to become a production designer working with the top photographers and directors in the world on fashion shoots for magazines such as Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, and for ad campaigns such as Gap, L'Oréal Paris, and Nike. Finding a new sense of freedom in L.A., Becket also fully engaged in his new life as a gay man. He had a series of many relationships with men throughout the next fifteen years. In September of 2009, Becket met a stranger at a coffee shop in Silver Lake who invited him to his church in Hollywood called Reality L.A. Becket reluctantly agreed to attend the service. After hearing the sermon that Sunday, Becket was utterly transformed by the gospel and gave his life to Christ. He also knew on that day when God revealed Himself to him that homosexuality was a sin and that he could no longer live that life. Becket was more than happy to count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus his Lord. Becket spends much of his time in ministry speaking at churches, universities, and conferences helping believers (and non-believers) understand this issue biblically, theologically, culturally, and personally. Balancing grace and truth when teaching on this subject is of primary importance. His goal is to challenge the current cultural narrative about sexuality in general and homosexuality in particular by demonstrating through his personal testimony and biblical truths that, yes, homosexuality is still a sin, and that following Christ is infinitely more satisfying and joyous. He has lived all over the world in major cities such as Rome, Vienna, and Tokyo. Becket graduated from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University in 2017 with a Master of Arts in Theology. Becket’s book, A Change of Affection: A Gay Man’s Incredible Story of Redemption, with a foreword by Francis Chan, published by Thomas Nelson, released July 30, 2019.

We take a look at the hostility toward the body and biology on cultural issues such as transgenderism, homosexuality, abortion, euthanasia, gay marriage, and hookup culture. In her book, Nancy Pearcey goes beyond politically correct slogans with a riveting exposé of the dehumanizing worldview that shapes current watershed moral issues, arguing that a holistic Christian view sustains the dignity of the body and biology.

These strategies have been very effective. You will be surprised at how cunning and intentional these guys were in advancing their cause. All of their secret plans have come to pass in today’s culture. They knew what they were doing and did it well.

We see how this so-called “gender-affirming care,” promoted by much of society including the President of the United States himself, is really child abuse. Becket reminds us that in the 90s, Hillary Clinton was on a campaign to end genital mutilation in African countries. But she is silent on this current twist of genital mutilation on American teens sucked into a deeply wicked gender ideology.

Her compelling arguments help refute the illogical, immoral, and philosophical arguments used by the pro-choice camp. What makes our life valuable? Why do we have dignity?

He attended Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas. After graduating from Austin College in Texas, Becket moved to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of writing and acting, finding success in both. He eventually went on to become a production designer working with the top photographers and directors in the world on fashion shoots for magazines such as Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, and for ad campaigns such as Gap, L'Oréal Paris, and Nike. Finding a new sense of freedom in L.A., Becket also fully engaged in his new life as a gay man. He had a series of many relationships with men throughout the next fifteen years. In September of 2009, Becket met a stranger at a coffee shop in Silver Lake who invited him to his church in Hollywood called Reality L.A. Becket reluctantly agreed to attend the service. After hearing the sermon that Sunday, Becket was utterly transformed by the gospel and gave his life to Christ. He also knew on that day when God revealed Himself to him that homosexuality was a sin and that he could no longer live that life. Becket was more than happy to count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus his Lord. Becket spends much of his time in ministry speaking at churches, universities, and conferences helping believers (and non-believers) understand this issue biblically, theologically, culturally, and personally. Balancing grace and truth when teaching on this subject is of primary importance. His goal is to challenge the current cultural narrative about sexuality in general and homosexuality in particular by demonstrating through his personal testimony and biblical truths that, yes, homosexuality is still a sin, and that following Christ is infinitely more satisfying and joyous. He has lived all over the world in major cities such as Rome, Vienna, and Tokyo. Becket graduated from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University in 2017 with a Master of Arts in Theology. Becket’s book, A Change of Affection: A Gay Man’s Incredible Story of Redemption, with a foreword by Francis Chan, published by Thomas Nelson, released July 30, 2019.

Alan lays out various strategies, including the "Columbo" and the "Taking the Roof Off" tactics. You will be surprised, edified, and encouraged by this episode. We also learn the difference between an "argument" and a "burden of proof." Alan gives great illustrations of how these tactics work in real life. We even do a role play where I pretend to be a skeptic and he uses the tactics on me. The goal of these tactics is to "put a stone in the skeptic's shoe."

Every Christmas and Easter, the New York Times and other media try to undermine the veracity of The Gospel, The Resurrection, God and the Christian Faith. Becket points out the flaws in the article and reveals the biblical truth. Sowing doubt is a favorite past-time of the media, but as Christians we can have confidence in The Gospel and the person and work of Jesus Christ.

We discover through these key historical figures how our modern world was shaped and the dramatic effects their ideas have had on our culture today including the previously incoherent phrase, "I am a woman trapped in a man's body," and how this phrase came to be known as coherent and meaningful in our world. You will be surprised how far-reaching these ideas are and how they are in the social imaginary whether we realize it or not. This episode will help you understand how we got to the chaos and confusion of our culture in the 21st century. Carl R.

Becket spends much of his time in ministry speaking at churches, universities, and conferences helping believers (and non-believers) understand this issue biblically, theologically, culturally, and personally. Balancing grace and truth when teaching on this subject is of primary importance. His goal is to challenge the current cultural narrative about sexuality in general and homosexuality in particular by demonstrating through his personal testimony and biblical truths that, yes, homosexuality is still a sin, and that following Christ is infinitely more satisfying and joyous. He has lived all over the world in major cities such as Rome, Vienna, and Tokyo. Becket graduated from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University in 2017 with a Master of Arts in Theology.

We learn how context and history play an important role in our understanding, and how modern Christians tend to overlook literary themes when reading scripture. It is important for us in the modern church to respect the history, culture and true meanings behind the biblical text. Applying this discipline is crucial to understanding the Bible correctly, and will help you avoid falling into the common mistakes among Bible readers. Our culture would have us interpret the Bible in whatever way feels best to us, but we need to study the Word of God and its original intended meaning rather than bend it to our own cultural whims. We also discuss commonly misunderstood passages in the Bible. Some of these may shock you.

They address many issues facing modern Christians like deconstruction, socialism, cancel culture, marxism and prominent Christians leaving the faith. The culture is diametrically opposed to Christianity's message and more often than not seeks to undermine and misinterpret the teachings of Jesus. We as Christians need to seek refuge in the Word and not pick and choose what works for us based on a secular worldview.

Becket’s book, A Change of Affection: A Gay Man’s Incredible Story of Redemption, with a foreword by Francis Chan, published by Thomas Nelson, released July 30, 2019. #TheBecketCookShow #SideA #SideB
