Can I Actually Ask This? | Q&A with Pastor Mike & Jared
Welcome back to Light Talks, where we’re kicking off Season 2 by bringing the tough, messy, and sometimes taboo questions of faith into the light. Whether you are a lifelong Christian or completely new to your faith journey, our host, Ali, a fellow “question asker”, is joined by Pastors Mike Novotny and Jared Oldenburg to dive into the real-life questions you’ve been asking. In this episode, the team avoids "black and white" legalistic traps to focus on rooting practical life choices in Scripture. From the lighthearted debates over church dress codes to deep-dives into overcoming shame and addiction, no topic is off-limits as we navigate what it means to follow Jesus in the real world. If you’ve ever thought, “Can I ask this?” — this episode is for you.
This episode will give you Biblical answers to the following questions:
- What should (or shouldn’t) you wear to church—and does God actually care?
- How can teenagers and young adults grow in their faith without feeling forced or fake?
- With so many Christian voices online, how do you know who to trust?
- Is it ever okay for Christians to swear, or does faith mean filtering every word?
- How do biblical teachings on discipline fit with modern ideas like gentle parenting?
- If Jesus teaches contentment, is it still okay to have ambition, goals, or career dreams?
- What’s the deal with speaking in tongues—is it real, biblical, or misunderstood?
- Where did evil and the devil come from if God created everything good?
