About this episode
Are you a superstitious Christian? Be honest. Do you know someone who is? In fact, what is a “superstitious Christian” anyway? In this final episode of the Just Thinking podcast for 2019, Darrell and “Omaha” (Virgil) discuss a practice that many people who profess to be Christian engage in every day–superstitions–and
why such beliefs are antithetical to what it truly means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

- 5EP # 005 | Colin Kaepernick & Civil RightsColin Kaepernick continues to be lauded for his stance on social justice, but is he set to follow in the shadows of such noted – and often venerated – civil rights icons as Muhammad Ali and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.?

- 7JUST THINKING PODCAST #007Is a church for ‘black men only’ the solution to the perceived suffrage of black people in America? Is white evangelicalism to blame for the current socio-political climate in our nation? And what about black evangelicalism? On this episode of Just Thinking, Darrell Harrison and Virgil Walker speak candidly but biblically, as usual, about these questions and how the gospel provides us with a Christ-centered response.

- 8EP # 007 | Black and Pro-LifeIs the term ‘pro-life black person’ an oxymoron? A mirage? A thing of the past? In this episode of Just Thinking, Darrell and Virgil discuss the growing black pro-life movement, a concept which, given how infrequently the terms “black” and “pro-life” are used together, would have many believe it is a contradiction in terms. Additionally, D and V take some time to pay their respects to the late Dr. R.C. Sproul, founder of Ligonier Ministries, who passed away on Thursday, December 14, 2017, who had an immense spiritual impact on both their lives.

- 9EP # 008 | Why We Need PoliceWe are all familiar with the adage, “What goes around, comes around.” That seems to be the case in Baltimore, where many black residents and social activists who, subsequent to the death of Freddie Gray in 2015, were demanding the removal of police from their communities, are now pleading for the return of police to those same neighborhoods in response the skyrocketing murder rate in that city. On this episode of Just Thinking, Darrell and Virgil discuss this topic through the lens of the gospel, including the fundamental question of why we need police in the first place. Also, Virgil lamens the loss of his beloved Oklahoma Sooners to Darrell’s Georgia Bulldogs in the Rose Bowl and the fact that his Sooners will have to wait another year to contend for a national championship.

Martin Luther King, Jr., Darrell and Virgil, at the risk of incurring the wrath of many who admire Dr. King, delve into the theology of the man and his views concerning the deity of Jesus Christ, and how fundamentally crucial it is that professing Christians have a proper Christology of Jesus.

- 12EP # 011 | A Desire for JusticeThis episode of the Just Thinking podcast marks a ‘dirty dozen’ shows that Darrell and Virgil have recorded. In this episode, D and V take listeners on an expository journey through the Old and New Testament as it relates to the topic of “social justice”, and discuss in great detail how our desire for justice, as society, is inextricably rooted in the imago Dei and, conversely, how the heart-transforming gospel of Jesus Christ is both antecedent and fundamental to any social change that is to occur.
