Unapologetic Hot Takes: Christians Should be Allowed to Fail

What do we do when Christian leaders fall, or even closer to home, when our Christian friends or family leave the faith? On this first episode in our new summer series—Unapologetic Hot Takes—Julia asks Dr. Robert Jeffress these questions and more! Their hot take? Christians should be allowed to fail!

From the Hillsong exposè to the documentary on the Duggar family, stories of ministries falling from grace are undoubtedly popular right now. As Julia and Dr. Jeffress dive into how to respond when Christians fall and how to heal, they challenge listeners to check their hearts when consuming media that exposes unfortunate circumstances for entertainment. Together they also talk through how to keep from becoming jaded towards our fellow Christians, guarding your life against temptation, and overcoming spiritual regrets. Towards the end of the episode, Julia shares part of her own prodigal story—encouraging listeners to remember that no one is ever too far gone to run back to Jesus. This is an honest and uplifting discussion you’re not going to want to skip!
