We talk through 12 common things Christians assume the Bible says, but it actually doesn’t. Not because those ideas are always “bad,” but because confusing Christian culture with Scripture can create unnecessary guilt, fear, and pressure.

Former police officer and pastor Dale Sutherland is joined by Pastor Nate for a grounded conversation covering:

1. The Bible does not say every Christian will feel a “calling” for every decision.

2. The Bible does not say you will have total peace in all circumstances.

3. The Bible does not say your words or thoughts mystically create reality.

4. The Bible does not say every Christian’s destiny is big or public.

5. The Bible does not say you will always enjoy reading the Bible more than everything else.

6. The Bible does not say everything in the world is evil.

7. The Bible does not say all Christians will experience God the same way.

8. The Bible does not say Scripture verses alone cure all anxiety or mental-health struggles.

9. The Bible does not say godly people with faith never get sick.

10. The Bible does not say suffering automatically means God is displeased with you.

11. The Bible does not say faithful believers won’t experience emotional distress.

12. The Bible does not say it’s selfish to pray for your own needs.

If you’ve ever felt like you were “failing” at Christianity because your experience didn’t match what you heard from others — this one is for you.

We wrestle with deadly force from the street to Scripture, weighing policy shifts, gritty case stories, and the tension between justice and mercy. We look at how a holy God judges sin, why any of us still live, and what true accountability should require.

• defining deadly force beyond firearms
• shift from fleeing felon doctrine to imminent threat
• why “unarmed” does not always mean safe
• two DC cases and missing context in headlines
• human reactions after shootings and moral weight
• sin, holiness, and divine judgment in Scripture
• Korah’s rebellion and Acts 5 as warnings
• the cross as perfect justice and perfect mercy
• reframing the question toward grace and accountability
