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 149 – Matthew 12:9-13 Is It Lawful to Podcast on the Sabbath? Apr 16, 2020

Show notes

Jesus heals a paralytic on the Sabbath and the Pharisees' first reaction on witnessing this miracle is to debate whether the healing was in line with religious law. With the passage in mind, we talk about our various past experiences in farming, retailing, legal prep, training and news reporting that required each of us to work on Sundays. In a 24/7 world, even a social distanced one, how do we respect the Sabbath? We also talk about we spent our unique 2020 Easter. Podcasting now, resting later: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”), Steve Titch (“The Gambler) and Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”) and host Bill Cox (“The Director”).

Podcast 148 -- Holy Week, Wholly Unusual (Plus Matthew 9:20-22) Apr 09, 2020

Show notes

Covid-19 stay-at-home orders will mean Christians will hunker down inside this Easter, just like the apostles did on the very first Resurrection Sunday. Our group talks about how much of departure from tradition 2020 Holy Week and Easter will be for them personally. Our scripture study looks at Jesus’s healing of the hemorrhaging woman, and how God sees past social stigmas to the real value of each human life. Our virtual panel, virtually unstoppable: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”), Steve Titch (“The Gambler), Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”) and host Bill Cox (“The Director”).

Jesus raises the deceased daughter of Jairus, a synagogue official. We look at Jairus’s faith and the way Jesus works in his own time.

Podcast 146 Matthew 8:23-27 The Perfect Storm Mar 26, 2020

Show notes

The disciples, in a panic, wake Jesus during a storm on the Sea of Galilee. He quiets the tempest, but still rebukes his followers. Why? We apply the lessons of this miracle to the storm Covid-19 is wreaking in our lives. Also, we mark three years of podcasting by looking back at the personal storms each of us has weathered over the course of that time. In our gallery on Zoom: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”), Steve Titch (“The Gambler) and Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”) and host Bill Cox (“The Director”).

Podcast 145 – Matthew 8:14-17 Even Mothers-in-Law Need Healing. Mar 19, 2020

Show notes

Man Up goes virtual! In the spirit of social distancing we recorded our podcast via teleconference. We continue our look at Jesus’ healing miracles and juxtapose it with the current pandemic that is indeed touching everyone’s lives. We talk about the people we know who are afflicted with illness and disabilities and the ways they have responded. We try to get past the clichés of “the Lord will provide” and go deeper into what it means to hold onto faith in difficult times. Together but separate: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”), Steve Titch (“The Gambler) and Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”) and host Bill Cox (“The Director”).

Podcast 144 Matthew 8:1-4 The Touch That Heals Mar 12, 2020

Show notes

In the middle of the coronavirus epidemic, the irony of discussing the story of Jesus healing the leper is not lost on us. What must the crowd have thought when Jesus touched someone who was, according to religious law, unclean? And aside from its lesson in compassion, how does this story stand as an allegory to our sinful condition? Also, host Bill Cox (“The Director”) introduces Man Up Media’s Men Matters program. On the panel: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”) and Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”). Visit us at www.man-upspiritualoasis.com.

Podcast 143 – Matthew 4:1-11 When Temptation Comes Your Way Mar 05, 2020

Show notes

We begin a new study series on the miracles of Jesus with an unusual choice—the temptation in the wilderness. Should this even be considered a miracle, considering that Jesus was, um, God, and pretty much knew all creation Lucifer was offering was his to begin with? Or, after 40 days of fasting, did Jesus require all his divine essence to resist? And what’s the difference between being tempted and being tested? And how can faith and scripture serve us as weapons as we face struggles in our own physical and psychological wildernesses? Our “No Church Answers” panel: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Steve Titch ("The Gambler") and Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”). Bill Cox (“The Director”) hosts. Visit us at www.man-upspiritualoasis.com.

Podcast 142 – Colossians 4:8-17 Roll the Credits Feb 27, 2020

Show notes

Paul wraps up his letter to the church at Colossae with “shout-outs” to friends and associates who have served, traveled and sustained him over the course of his missionary journeys through his imprisonment in Rome. This inspires use to talk about the figures who have brought us to Christ and shaped our Christians lives. Our panel: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”), Steve Titch ("The Gambler") and Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”). Bill Cox (“The Director”) hosts.

Podcast 141 – Colossians 4:2-6 A Pinch of Salt Does Wonders Feb 20, 2020

Show notes

We look at Paul’s interesting mix of advice on prayer and approaching non-believers in the world. Do we underestimate the power of prayer? And what’s the best way to tell our stories of faith? Our panel: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”) Steve Titch ("The Gambler"). Bill Cox (“The Director”) hosts. Visit us at www.man-upspiritualoasis.com.

Podcast 140 – Colossians 3:18-4:1 Husbands, Love Your Wives (and Do the Dishes) Feb 13, 2020

Show notes

Man Up marks Valentine’s Day by ambling into the scriptural minefield that is Paul’s call for wives to “submit” to their husbands. Fortunately we have help from our first-time woman guest, cancer surgeon Dr. Sandy Templeton, who adds her perspective on 21st century marriage roles for Christian men and women. Along with Colossians 3, we look at other writings of Paul and other parts of scripture (like Proverbs 31:10-31) that raise the question whether Christianity is as rigidly patriarchal as some critics—and some believers—insist. Dr. Sandy joins our regular crew: Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”), Steve Titch (“The Gambler”), Mike Cropper (“The Judge”) and Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”) and host Bill Cox (“The Director”).
