Matt Slick Live: March 12, 2026

·48 min·1 clip

Truth rests in God's nature, not the speaker. But practically, we can't trust judgment from those in moral failure.

Matt opens plainly. The Truth Network setup gives way to the regular live-call rhythm: phone numbers, ministry contact info, and a small stumble over the email address. The format feels familiar because it is. A caller caught in a church situation gets the long answer. Matt weighs moral compromise, a spouse's responsibility, and the slow work of obedience without pretending there is a neat ruling waiting at the end. He leaves space for prayer. His counsel does not come with a stamped permission slip, since he keeps saying he is neither telling her to go nor telling her not to go. The mood loosens for a minute. The squirt gun and water balloons joke gives the caller a breather, but the concern is still doctrinal error in a Bible study setting. Marriage changes the pace. Matt says a single person could leave faster, while a spouse calls for patience, shared consideration, and attention to what God may be doing over time. The caller seems to feel the weight of it. She says she needs prayer and discernment, and he asks her to call back once she decides. Then Scott calls from Spokane, Washington. He has been reading Exodus with his wife and brings up what sounds like an apparent inconsistency, which steers the hour back into direct Bible-question territory. Matt stays in answer mode. Near the end, another exchange moves into verification, basic claims, and how quickly a conversation can stall when foundational points get pressed. The clock wins. Matt points the caller to 2 Corinthians 11, says the issue is addressed there, and asks him to call back tomorrow. The finish is warm but abrupt. He blesses the listeners by grace and closes with the usual sense that the conversation will pick up again on the next broadcast.

As heard by us

A call-in apologetics hour that keeps turning practical dilemmas back toward Scripture and careful discernment.

Matt Slick Live starts with calls on Bible doctrine and then shifts into a more practical question: whether a married caller should attend a church.
