Summary

Back by popular demand, my pastor, Rick Witmer (whom I call Wit), is on the podcast today to tackle some of your most pressing questions.

We start with one that’s relevant for this time of year: “Is it biblical to celebrate Christmas?”

And then, we move on to a biblical examination of why Christians worship on Sundays (instead of Saturdays) and what role Sabbath plays in the modern-day believer’s life.

As you can see from the long list of Scripture references below, Wit infuses all of his answers with ample support from God’s Word. Whether or not you arrive at the same conclusions, I know you’ll be edified by his careful and thorough examination of your questions with the Bible as his guide.

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the MS for Mama podcast. I'm your host, Abby Halberstadt, happy wife,
0:09.6	mama to 10, Bible Believing Christian. And on today's show, I have such a treat for you. Back by
0:15.4	popular demand, my pastor Rick Whitmer is going to be here to answer a handful of the questions that you guys submitted
0:23.1	after he did a theology chat with us.
0:26.4	Oh, six weeks ago or somewhere around there.
0:28.8	And you guys did not hold back.
0:30.7	You definitely submitted some doozies.
0:32.3	And we're going to tackle those in this episode and next week's episode as well.
0:36.0	Before we dive into that, I want to highlight
0:37.9	our December podcast sponsor, Votebird Music Academy. This Christmas, you can give the gift of
0:43.1	music lessons to someone you love. It could be your own children or you could give it as a gift
0:47.0	card using the code MS for Mama 20 for 20% off each month that your student is enrolled. You can
0:53.3	share lessons between siblings for as
0:55.0	little as $30 a month, which is an amazing savings from the many hundreds of dollars per child.
0:59.9	Some people spend each month on music lessons. And you can do so in mandolin, ukulele, guitar,
1:07.2	piano, or fiddle. So you have all kinds of options. Check it out at Votebergmusicacademy.com and don't forget to use the code MS for Mama 20. All right, friends, we are back with my pastor Rick Whitmer, whom I affectionately call Witt, and we are going to do a what do you want to know, Witt's Day. He came up with that and I love it. I'm telling you it works. That's right.
1:29.0	It works. We talked about that last time. We did talk about that last time. So if you have not met Rick
1:33.6	before, you can go back and listen to our theology podcast that we split into two where we talked
1:38.5	about reform theology, a little bit Calvinism, some other stuff in between. But I floated the idea
1:44.1	of you're being able to submit questions
1:47.0	for him. And you guys did not disappoint, aka, you came through with, as Rick put it when I
1:53.9	texted them to him, oh, good, lightweight questions. That's right. So, yeah, so you, the opposite of, and being quite sarcastic, quite facetious.
