The Russell Moore Show

Your Questions on Doubt, Social Issues, and Spiritual Abuse

Russell Moore and producer Ashley Hales respond to listeners.

What do parenting, responding to cultural waves, and healing from church hurt have in common? The answer might just be found in Russell Moore’s response to a listener question on this episode of The Russell Moore Show: "The Spirit is going to be walking with you and working within you,” says Moore. “Be patient and let the Spirit work." The topics in this episode range from marriage and family to church leadership to trauma. But what binds these inquiries and responses together is the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit, who provides guidance and comfort in every confusing and painful area of life. Tune in as Russell and producer Ashley Hales respond to listener questions, including:

  • How should a Christian mother raise her children when her husband says he no longer believes in Jesus?
  • How should congregants engage with church leaders who aren't addressing specific cultural issues?
  • What is the difference between a pastor providing proper leadership and becoming overly authoritative?
  • How can Christians heal from spiritual abuse?
