The Jesus You Want vs. The Jesus You Need | Kirk Cameron Ep 62

Maybe today you want the personal defense attorney Jesus—the one who argues your case and makes sure everyone who’s wronged you finally gets what’s coming. But the truth is, you don’t need a lawyer in heaven’s courtroom… you already have a perfect Judge. In this episode, Kirk unpacks what it really means to “leave vengeance to God,” why justice belongs to Him alone, and how choosing peace over payback is actually a sign of true spiritual strength. Plus—Kirk and James answer your questions about secular entertainment, the Shroud of Turin, capital punishment, and more!

A ceasefire in the Middle East. Hostages released. Families reunited. For the first time in years, peace — even if temporary — has returned. But will it last? In this week's wrap-up, Kirk reflects on this historic moment, President Trump’s unexpected role in brokering peace, and the deeper truth from Scripture: that no peace between nations can endure until there is peace within the human heart. Plus, we look at breaking headlines — from Trump’s massive legal victories against Big Tech and the media, to rising Bible sales across America, and even a fresh debate on Halloween and faith.

Is consent the ultimate standard for morality? Our culture says, “If two adults agree, it must be okay.” But the Bible shows us a higher standard—God’s. In this episode, we explore why human consent alone isn’t enough, how sin is often “taking what isn’t yours,” and why real freedom comes from aligning with God’s will, not just our desires. #TheKirkCameronShow #ConsentCulture #BiblicalTruth #ChristianPodcast #MoralityMatters #GodsWord #ChristianLiving #FaithAndCulture #ChristianPerspective #KirkCameron #ChristianPodcastClips #ChristianRelationships #ChristianFaith #TruthOverCulture #ChristianMen Learn more about your ad choices.
