Romans 3:23 says "we all sin and fall short of the glory of God", this is very well known no matter how long one has been a christian. There is something else that can come from the realization of the fact that all have sinned. Adam and Eve experienced it in the garden, shame. Once sin has happened, there are a lot of people who experience shame and guilt. The questions that are often asked are, "How can I move on past sin?" "Should I feel guilt and shame?" " How can I be forgiven?". These questions are at the forefront of many people's thoughts. So what do we do with all of this? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller discuss what the Bible says about sin, guilt, shame, and how to move past all of this in a biblical manner. Tune in for this important conversation that you don't want to miss.

"I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, Born of the Virgin Mary, Suffered under Pontius Pilate, Was crucified, dead, and buried. He descended into hell". This is the opening line of the Apostles Creed, but what do they mean by "He descended into hell"?Did he go down to hell? Is "hell" in that statement the same hell that we think of? Where did Jesus go when he died? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller discuss this creed that has been past down for almost 2,000 years and what do they mean by Jesus descended into hell. Is that really where He went when He died? Is hell what we think it is? What does the Bible say about all of this? Grab your Bible on this one and bring out your theology cap as we dive into this episode.

If you are a Christian, then you probably have been baptized at the beginning of your Christian walk. This being the first step in obedience to Christ, is an important step as it shows not only our loyalty to Jesus, but also symbolizes us being burried with Christ and raised into newness of life with Him. So that brings us to our question today, we see why baptism is important for us, but why was Jesus Baptized? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller take a closer look at these passages from the Gospels, looking also into the culture of the time, and dive into the reasons that Jesus allowed Himself to be baptized and what it means. Tune in for this exciting conversation.
