    Well worth your time!
    JD provides a balanced approach, supported by deep understanding scripture in today’s context! He hits on many topics that are not regularly discussed in the church.

    A Great way to start the day
    Appreciate the pastoral perspective on tough questions

    Biblical and True!
    JD Greear‘s answers to life’s toughest questions are founded in Biblical truth that will bring the aroma of life to those following it and the aroma of death to those against it (2 Corinthians 2:15-16). It’s no surprise that the ones leaving negative reviews are the ones smelling the aroma of death and rejecting what JD has been empowered by the Holy Spirit to say. The answers are meant to be convicting, because they go against our sinful choices, so some people won’t like what he has to say. Stop doing AND supporting what is right in your own eyes, and turn your eyes and hearts to what God says is right (Judges 21:25).

    My question:
    My favorite podcast! Wish it was longer or had more episodes throughout the week. Here is my question for JD: How does God view non-essential plastic surgery? It has become so normalized nowadays, and I just don’t know what to think.

    👍👍👍👍👍
    I won’t go a day and not listen to his podcast or YouTube videos. To hear him preach his service, keeps me thoroughly encouraged to stand firm in my faith!! Thank you for what you have done for me in prison and after my release ! I have remained a child of God because I can totally understand what I didn’t before! Bless you Mr Greear for all that you do!!

    Pretty great...
    I think it’s great! I love the solid teaching however I wish there wouldn’t be so much on cultural issues it seems like there are several episodes that focus on differences and I don’t like that, it seems like sometimes it just goes one way
  • elvdefsky3
    So beneficial!
    This podcast has been so encouraging! I started listening to the oldest episodes available, and I have been working my way forward ever sense. I’m in the second season now and every episode brings a new blessing. The most encouraging part has been hearing Pastor J.D. give answers that align with how I would want to answer the questions though he is far more articulate than I am. This podcast is very beneficial to any believer who listens to it whether they are a Southern Baptist or not.
  • Cdub_510
    Love this Podcast!
    This podcast has been so helpful to me. I appreciate how Pastor J.D. explains each answer and has a scripture or story from the Bible to back it up. It makes it easier for me to study for myself.

    Solid!
    Great questions, concise yet substantive answers...and J.D, just come out of the Calvinist closet! Embrace it!
  • Rinawoods
    Informative, but old ones deleted?
    I’ve enjoyed listening to these podcasts since the beginning as they are informative relevant and biblical, but it seems many old ones have been deleted. Anyone know where they can be found, and why they were removed?
  • madsrog123
    Listen!
    You always know that JD’s talks are backed by scripture, and he always says things with humility- sometimes claiming he doesn’t know it all, but gives the wisdom he does have! I highly recommend!
  • Dan Mays

    Love Pastor JD! I appreciate that he does not hide from a hard question, and always uses scripture to back up everything he says.

    How to deal w the protests?
    The best way to deal w the protests is yes, the practical items of empathy and loving neighbor. More importantly on a foundational level we must call out men like Francis Collins and Tim Keller and Josh Swamidass who all remain, at the very least, accepting of the idea that natural evolutionary processes caused humankind to develop from a humanoid type of creature over millions of years. Theistic evolution is essentially the atheistic mainstream version of darwinian survival of the fittest evolutionism in Christian garb. The implications of believing this will be first of all this differs from the Genesis creation account. God is not with those who put His Word out for trusting mainstream science. Additionally, an implication related to these protests is that people are still in a process of natural evolution which suggests that some races may not be quite as evolved as others. Evolution is most definitely survival of the fittest where some are not quite as fit-the opposite of Gods economy where He says that He cares for the weak. We are sinners. Give a human an inch and they will take a mile. If we believe that we are evolved creatures instead of humans special created in the image of God, then this adds fuel to the potential for the mass protest on race. There is no doubt in my mind. Men like Dr Keller seem to want to avoid appearing unintelligent by appealing to the legitimacy of groups like Biologos. But Scripture calls us to lay aside trusting our intelligence and trust God at His word and i believe in the possibility that until those who's voices are prominent influencers towards our churches repent from a theistic evolution stance, God will allow protests to persist w passion.

    Dope Content!
    It’s also well produced and the music is fly! Continue to be awesome in all things.
  • JRoy7196
    Great Podcast
    Phenomenal content. One of my favorite podcasts to listen to regularly. However, the intro music is obnoxious and would make the podcast WAY better if it were something more subtle.

    Highly recommend
    This is a great series of short episodes of JD Greear responding to questions I’ve always wondered about but never have heard anyone talk about. He answers questions with scripture and without rambling and of course with humor. Great way to pass time in the car!
  • jonas_larkin

    Discovered this podcast just a few weeks ago and can’t stop listening. Full of biblically sound and well articulated wisdom and advice. Check it out!
  • Taylor - Texas
    LOVE this podcast!
    J.D. is one of my favorite pastors in the world and to have a podcast where he directly answers difficult questions regarding the church or our personal faith journey, it really is a treat. The short format is also awesome because so much information is packed in a nice bite sized time slot! Keep up the incredible podcast!

    I have really both enjoyed and benefited from Ask me anything with JD. His wisdom and council are insightful and always lined with biblical truth. The time frame makes it perfect for our busy culture. I believe this is a gift to believers everywhere.
  • Underdog97
    Informative
    I love hearing our SBC president address issues for the church, for leaders, as well as apologetic and theological questions. Answers biblically, but in a way that we can all take it home and use it.
  • JustMicahAndrew
    Quick Content Consistently Helpful
    Love hearing insights from JD on many very very practical topics regarding the church at large. This is been one of the greatest resources I’ve found this year!
  • KYVOLFAN
    Great application for difficult topics
    Love the short format and great biblical application. This podcast really helps me as a pastor to stoke the fire for sermons, bible study’s and just a good general reminder of resources within the SBC.
  • J.G. Faulk
    Love this podcast
    Pastor J.D. is incredibly down to earth and practical in his answers, giving sound biblical advice in a way that is not overly academic. Short and sweet with a variety of topics. I highly recommend this podcast.
  • b*rod
    Great thoughts on the Christian life and ministry.
    Pastor JD Greear brings his decades of wisdom from serving The Summit Church in Raleigh-Durham, NC to this podcast. It’s short enough to listen to on a commute or during a break. That helps make the podcast compelling.
  • SHEPAPAH
    Wisdom!
    I love the quick wisdom on these short, important and topical podcasts. Add this to your work commute!
  • Benny G 2.0
    Awesome
    This podcast answers relevant questions in practical ways. Every time I listen, I can walk away with some knowledge that I can apply in every day Christian living. I would recommend this to anyone who is passionate about Christian leadership.
  • Kilby42
    Short and to the point
    I appreciate the quick question and answer format of the podcast. While I probably don’t line up exactly like JD on some secondary issues I appreciate his Gospel above all mentality. The podcast about attending a homosexual wedding has continued to stick with me the most as a realization that we do affirm things by our inaction sometimes as much as our actions. Keep it up.
  • mrjewell88
    A Valuable Resource Indeed
    Incredibly thankful for the wisdom and practical insight of Pastor JD on a wide-range of topics. This podcast helps me to think deeply and Biblically about current issues, tough questions, and challenges me to apply what I’ve learned in the context of my local church. Well worth your time!!
  • JasonGrant
    JD is the best!
    I love this podcast. It gives me a reason to look forward to Mondays! It doesn’t matter if you have a ministry role, or you are a layperson. JD offers advice on a wide spectrum of issues facing believers today.
  • KevvyKevlar
    A podcast that is worth your time, Christian or not.
    JD Greear answers tough questions that I myself would fear taking on. He does so out of conviction from the Holy Spirit and from the Word of God. He does not hold back but is gentle and loving when he approaches these tough topics. I look forward to this podcast every week. This most recent podcast touched me tremendously as a survivor of sexual abuse that came from a leader in my former church. JD I thank you for your insight and courage to take this on.
  • Logan M Barker
    Great podcast!
    I listen to all of JD’s Sunday sermons and this is definitely some content that is just as good! Each podcast is an easy length to listen to and super easy to follow. JD breaks down a variety of topics that a lot of believers ponder and JD lays out some good information on them. Highly recommend!
  • why we cant have nice things
    Favorite podcast
    This podcast is so helpful. JD is very engaging and everything he brings it straight from the Scriptures. Some really tough questions are answered on this podcast, questions that we all have!
  • Zachary Verbracken
    Great podcast and super helpful content!
    I love that JD is open to going just about anywhere, and that he gives clear biblical answers to difficult topics!
  • kdfreema
    Equipping you for everyday interactions
    This podcast has been an amazing resource to me in daily conversations. I find myself more comfortable engaging with questions from nonbelievers than I ever was before. It is nice to feel I have thorough yet simple answers to some of the most hot topics people want to ask Christians about. JD and his wisdom is a blessing to our church and to my life!
