Sermons / Should Christians PRAY to Saints!? (Pastors REACT To Viral Video) | Live Free with Josh Howerton

In Episode 90 of the LIVE FREE Podcast, Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, and Paul Cunningham uncover surprising lessons hidden inside some of the Bible passages we usually skim—including the stories of Mark, Demas, Rufus, and Quartus. Their lives reveal powerful truths about failure, restoration, friendship, legacy, and lifelong faithfulness. The conversation also gets intensely practical: Who are the people carrying your mat when you're struggling? Is it biblical to pray for God's judgment on someone? And why does Scripture teach that Christians can approach God directly through Jesus? In this episode, you'll learn: Why seemingly insignificant names in Scripture actually matter What Mark and Demas teach us about failure and finishing well How to intentionally build a band of brothers or sisters Why Christian friendship requires encouragement and confrontation How Christians can pray for enemies while still asking God for justice Why Jesus alone is our mediator before God How to keep your eyes centered on Christ throughout your life Don't simply start the race—finish faithfully. Stand firm. Think biblically. Live free. 💬 This week’s giveaway: Name the Bear Skull in the Comments! 🧢 Want a Live Free hat of your own? Visit LiveFree.shop 📲 Looking to grow deeper in your faith?
