Pastor Thad answered follow-up questions related to Sunday’s. He began by providing a detailed explanation of the Greek grammatical term "present active command," using "do not be anxious" from Philippians 4:6 as an example. He emphasized that such commands are meant for ongoing obedience and are not mere suggestions. He then assessed the health of his church, West Hills, in terms of members praying for one another and bearing each other's burdens, describing it as "growing." He identified pride and discomfort as barriers to deeper vulnerability and offered practical steps for the congregation to improve, such as making prayer a habit, praying for others in the moment, and being more open in small groups.

This conversation was a question-and-answer session from the "After the Sermon" podcast, hosted by Brian with lead pastor Will. Pastor Will addressed follow-up questions from the congregation regarding his recent sermon, "God's Truth Cures the World's Lies," the first in a series titled "The Antidote." He elaborated on how scripture provides joyful fulfillment, recommended resources for biblical apologetics, and clarified theological concepts such as eternal security (being "kept"), the specific nature of Jesus's prayers for believers versus the world, the existence of false churches, and the ongoing intercessory work of Christ in heaven. The session concluded with an exploration of the sermon series' central metaphor of the gospel as an "antidote" for sin rather than a preventative "vaccine."
