Should churches preach about hell more often? In this thought-provoking episode of The Steve Marston Show, Steve tackles a listener's question about why many churches avoid one of the Bible's most sobering topics. He explains why understanding the reality of sin and eternal separation from God makes the Gospel's message of grace through Jesus Christ even more powerful.

Steve also shares a deeply personal story about the sudden passing of a longtime friend—a reminder that life is fragile and tomorrow is never guaranteed. It's an encouraging challenge to tell the people you love how much they mean to you while you still have the opportunity.

Later, Steve welcomes his son, Tyler, creator of the 1189 YouTube channel, for an in-depth conversation about studying Scripture chapter by chapter. Tyler explains the vision behind creating a free Bible commentary covering all 1,189 chapters of the Bible, why the Torah is essential for understanding Jesus, what makes John's Gospel unique, and why every believer can confidently study God's Word.

Plus:
A free copy of Steve Gregg's book Why Hell
How to get Steve's free "Five Tips for Bible Study" PDF
The inspiring testimony of actor Alan Ritchson's bold witness for Christ
Updates on Christian artist Franni Cash and the band We The Kingdom
A Scripture memory challenge from Ephesians 3:20-21
A heartwarming closing video that celebrates the joy of praising God—even as a toddler
And, of course... one classic dad joke!

If you're ready to deepen your faith, value every day God gives you, and grow in your understanding of Scripture, this episode will encourage and challenge you.
