Aloha and welcome to Amen Podcast where we preach the good news of Jesus Christ and how it

applies to everyday life. I am Loco on a year host and I'm joined by my husband who is preaching

about thinking Christianity is the only religion where we are called to actually really use our

brain every other religion just wants you to blindly trust and fall into whatever cult like

practices and teaching that is being put forth Christianity says before you do anything just

think about it. If you've seen the movie Sandlot it's my favorite movie of all time and there's

a part where Smalls is trying to really get in with this group of friends these cool kids and so

they lose their baseball they have no money to buy a new baseball and then Small says I've a ball

and he runs home and he goes into his stepdad special room and grabs his special baseball

from a special case with some special writing on it and he takes out to the Sandlot and they play

ball and he knocks it over the fence right over the fence into the mouth of a big giant beast and then

they realize what was so special about that ball was there was the name baby roof on the side of it

they say in the movie baby roofs handwriting it was a signature ball and ham and and small says

well I wasn't I wasn't think I don't know I thought that I thought this and ham the catcher he says

if you were thinking you wouldn't have thunk that Smalls wasn't thinking he was blindly jumping

into a decision because you really wanted people to like him he wanted people's acceptance and how

often do we do that Christianity calls you to think so we're going to talk about the need to think

the problem with thinking and the solution to how to think like a Christian how to think like

Christ let's get into it Matthew chapter 8 5 through 13 living Bible translation

when Jesus arrived in Kaepernam a Roman army came and pled to him to come to his home and

heal his servant boy who was in bed paralyzed and racked with pain yes Jesus said I will come

and heal him then the officer said sir I am not worthy to have you in my home
