EP 194: One Reason People Are Not Returning To Church After COVID Apr 26, 2021

Show notes

Barna reported that up to 50% of certain age populations never intend to return to church once all restrictions are lifted after COVID 19. Why? Many excuses are listed, but none seem to address the underlying issue: Christian foundations. Many leaders have unwittingly taught their people that pulpit ministry is the central reason to gather. Now that the internet has made it possible to watch from the comfort of their homes, tens of thousands of Christians see no reason to go to church! During today's podcast, I discuss a resource to help change your church into a discipling center rather than an online alternative to meeting in person.

EP 189: How Not To Throw The Baby Out With The Bath Water (Part Three) Mar 22, 2021

Show notes

When most of us hear the word, "prophet" we think of Old Testament figures like Isaiah or Jeremiah. Anyone considering themselves a prophet today is typically viewed as people with behavioral or mental problems. Paul taught that Christ gave this gift to His Church to equip people to do ministry work. Further, he commented that God's ultimate plans for His people will not come to fruition unless prophets, apostles, pastors, teachers, and evangelists work together as a team. Most pastors want nothing to do with prophets or prophetic ministry due largely to the misuse of this God-initiated ministry. Is that a valid excuse for rejecting the life-changing resource? Today, I complete a three-part series on prophecy, the prophetic, and prophets. Join me!

EP 188: How Not To Throw The Baby Out With The Bath Water (Part Two) Mar 15, 2021

Show notes

In this second of a three-part series, we delve more deeply into this mysterious yet biblical gift of prophecy. What is the "life" gift of prophecy, and how does it differ from a gift of the Holy Spirit? How can we know if a person possesses the life gift of prophecy? Why is misunderstanding this gift potentially dangerous to a local church? Some important questions I answer during today's show.

EP 187: How Not To Throw The Baby Out With The Bath Water (Part One) Mar 08, 2021

Show notes

The hot topic in the church these days is prophecy. Some believe it only belongs to the first century. Others use it as a mechanism to make a name for themselves or create a following. Today's podcast is the first of three, speaking about prophecy's biblical gift and proper use. There are three levels of prophecy in the New Testament. Today, we will briefly discuss the first.

EP 185: Are You Investing Into One Of Your Most Valuable Assets? Feb 23, 2021

You and I carry around a treasure (II Corinthians 4:7). Is this treasure confined to a weekly sermon alone? I have shared about publishing in episode 53.
