Waiting Is a Normal Part of the Christian Life
Friday, 13 February, 2026
Greg explains that waiting is a normal part of the Christian life, then he answers questions about prophetic words, having a peace about prodigal family members, what makes marriage legitimate, attending baptisms at liberal churches, training for door-to-door evangelism, and a Trinity analogy. Topics: Commentary: Waiting is a normal part of the Christian life. (00:00) Is it a biblical practice for someone to have a “prophetic word” for others and seem to know things they couldn’t know, or is this fortune-telling? (08:00) Is it wrong to have a peace about the fact that prodigal family members might not come back to the Lord? (24:00) Is marriage legitimate if it’s not done through the government, and what’s the biblical outline for what makes a marriage legitimate? (30:00) If we shouldn’t attend an LDS baptism because they believe in different core doctrines, couldn’t the same apply to some liberal churches? (39:00) Do you have any advice on training a group to do door-to-door evangelism? (45:00) What are your thoughts on using the analogy of Neapolitan ice cream for the Trinity? (52:00) Mentioned on the Show: House of David series Tactics: A Game Plan for Discussing Your Christian Convictions by Greg Koukl A Simple Survey to Help Initiate Spiritual Conversations by Greg Koukl Related Links: Privatize Marriage? by Amy Hall (quoting Jennifer Roback Morse)
