Is truth that which works? What do many say that Christianity is not practical? How prevalent is pragmatism in contemporary Christianity?

Dr. R.C. Sproul once said, “Modern man wastes little time thinking about ultimate or religious questions. The pragmatist is basicalkly skeptical or agnostic about man’s ability to discover ultimate truth…” On this special repeat broadcast, Mike and Pastor Scott Reiber discuss the philospohy of pragmatism, or ‘the end justify the means’, contrasting how Christianity and its competitors influence various aspects of our culture: economics, science, art, literature, and government.

In this repeat broadcast, Mike shares an article by Dr. Thomas Ascol of Founder Ministries in which he writes,” I hope I live long enough to see the day when the common caricatures of the doctrines of sovereign grace have been so widely exposed that any self-respecting preacher will be ashamed to keep serving them up as if they were irrefutable critiques of what John Broadus called “that exalted system of Pauline truth which is technically called Calvinism.” On todays program, Mike examines the gross misrepresentation what he calls “the true exposition of Scripture.”

In this repeat broadcast, we share our experience of being at Lakeshore Baptist Church recently and seeing firsthand the ministry that is ongoing there for victims of Hurricane Katrina that devastated the area in 2005. On today’s program, we let you hear the voices, the testimonies and the sounds from Lakeshore, including conversations with Ruth Boyd and Elaine Gillam, whose homes are being rebuilt, and we hear from Greg London, project coordinator for the ministry.
(Todays program is a repeat broadcast as Mike is away due to the illness of his mother. He earnestly desires your prayers.)
Listen to almost any Christian television or radio broadcast and you will see or hear a lot of emphasis on the person; claims such as “So-and-so’s dynamic preaching….Brother So-and-so led the church to the greatest period of growth in history” are common. But are we supposed to promote ourselves in such a manner, especially when the Apostle Paul said he counted all of his accomplishments and abilities as “loss”. On this program Mike examines that we are not called to puff ourselves, but we are called to die to ourselves.
In this repeat broadcast…….How can so many who claim to be Christians and not have a proper, scriptural understanding of salvation? As Dr. John MacArthur states in the teaching series Salvation Survey: Saved or Self Deceived?, “I am convinced that in the name of Christianity there are many places that call themselves churches and they’re not churches. And they have men leading them who call themselves pastors and they’re not pastors.” On this program, Mike asks the question are many saved or deceived?
