No Church Answers! — Religion & Spirituality
No Church Answers!

The No Church Answers! podcast began as Man Up a Spiritual Oasis for Men in 2017, launched by Bill Cox, actor and DJ, and four regulars, Steven Titch, Robert Cocheu, Michael Cropper and Earl Lloyd–all from different Christian backgrounds. Our focus is on ways men could use their Christian faith to drive their goals, leadership and action. We feel the faith muscle needs regular exercise. The body is like a barrel. The outside is your education, money and health. The inside is your faith and soul. We bring different points of view to a scripture lesson and hash them out in a panel discussion. We strive for authenticity in representing what Christian men are thinking.

Contact us at www.nochurchanswers.com. We’re not pastors, just regular guys. Engaging, deep and often humorous looks at faith in today’s world by our panel.

Podcast 186 -- Diversity & Inclusion Philippians 1:1-11 Jan 12, 2021

Show notes

We start the new year with a study of Paul's letter to the Philippians. Paul saw joy from the Philippian church--whose members varied from wealthy cloth merchants to common jailers--as they looked past their differences to partner to spread the Gospel. As secular culture reduces the virtue of diversity into the latest fad, we look at the Christian ideal of purposeful community.

Podcast 184 -- No Ordinary Joe -- Matthew 1:18-25, Luke 2:1-6, Matthew 2:13-15,19-23 Dec 22, 2020

Show notes

For our Christmas 2020 podcast, we take a look at Joseph, one of the most important figures in the Christmas story yet one who rarely gets any attention. God delegates the care and protection of Mary and the child Jesus to Joseph, who remains humble and obedient to the Lord, while decisive and purposeful in accomplishing the difficult and stressful tasks he faces. As men confront the challenges and pressures of the holiday season, we look at the lessons we can learn from the example Joseph sets.

Podcast 183 -- Galatians 5:22-25 Spiritual Fruit-of-the-Month Club Dec 15, 2020

Show notes

Our panel discusses the traits Paul says will emerge when one truly lives by the Holy Spirit. We contrast that with his indictment of worldly practices that purport to offer the same benefits, but invariably fall short. Everyone strives for greater love, peace, joy, patience, kindness and these other examples of spiritual fruit, but how much comes from our work and how much comes from surrender to the Spirit?

Podcast 182 -- 1 Thessalonians 1:1-10 Faith, Love and Hope Dec 08, 2020

Show notes

The guys discuss Paul's "triad" of traits that emerge when the Gospel and the Holy Spirit combine to spark transformation in a believer. We look at faith vs. works, love vs. duty and finding joy despite hardship and endurance.

Podcast 181 -- Ephesians 5:15-20 Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs Dec 01, 2020

Show notes

Instead of getting drunk on wine, Paul calls on us to be "filled with the Holy Spirit" and specifically cites singing as a way to do so. That's our cue to talk about the types of worship music we grew up with and how it contributes the overall celebration we should find in our faith.

Podcast 180 -- Ephesians 4:25-32 Paul vs. Major Reisman Nov 24, 2020

Show notes

We dissect Paul's command to be kind, compassionate and forgiving with the reality that men, as leaders, often need to use "tough love" in our parental and managerial relationships. Even Christ saw virtue in directness: "Let your 'yes' be yes and your 'no,' no." (Matt. 5:37) How do Christian leaders set high expectations yet do so with love and kindness? Also, the fellows talk about the Boy Scouts and whether the program is still relevant in 2020.

Podcast 179 -- Ephesians 1:13-14 Is Salvation Guaranteed? Nov 17, 2020

Show notes

Paul seems to say so, but others disagree. This week we explore the meaning of be "sealed" by the Holy Spirit. Can we lose our salvation by failing to walk with the Spirit? What about those who, like Hawk Nelson frontman Jon Steingard, openly renounce their faith? Also, Bill Cox, our director, reflects on Veterans Day.

Podcast 178 -- Romans 14:17-19 A Righteous Podcast Nov 10, 2020

Show notes

Our panel takes up the concept of joy and how it might differ from happiness or contentment. Paul says joy comes through righteousness, and righteousness comes through the Holy Spirit, but what is righteousness, anyway? And does claiming your righteous automatically negate it?

Podcast 177 -- Romans 8:26-27 Prayer: A Never Ending Shopping List? Oct 30, 2020

Show notes

The fellows look at prayer from perspectives that range from Richard J. Foster to Lulu Roman. Prayer might be the primary means of accessing the Holy Spirit, yet most of us find it difficult. In Romans, Paul says the Spirit will find the words when we can't. We discuss the importance a prayer life and ways to cultivate it.
