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 139 Colossians 3:10-17 Paul’s Haberdashery Feb 06, 2020

Show notes

Now that you’ve cast off your old self (Col. 3:9), what are you going to wear? If clothes make the man, what outward trappings reflect an inner spiritual light. We look at Paul’s specific list and his challenge that we fit them to our lifestyle. Also, we begin our podcast with a closer look at how millennial males are “manning up” and offer some thoughts about the cultural contradiction that was the Super Bowl halftime show. 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 138 – Colossians 3:1-9 Weeds of the Spirit Jan 30, 2020

Show notes

How is Christian living like good lawn care? Paul advises the Colossians keep the mind and heart on things above and put to earthly sin to death. We look at Holy Spirit-guided discipline as the Ortho sprayer for the soul. Also, Bill mans up and defeats the temptation of cynicism after being scammed by a spoofed email.

Podcast 137 – Colossians 2:16-23 Wear Your Rainbow Sweater to Church Jan 23, 2020

Show notes

Paul calls out legalism and other forms spiritual intimidation. Bill recalls a time he was written off as only a “14-carat Christian” because he lacked a charismatic experience. Steve asks if it’s still really a “sacrifice” to give up meat on Friday. It’s amazing how soon these false doctrines of “Christ-Plus” rules and practices seeped into the early church and continue in various forms today, from prohibitions on dancing, rock music and, as we learned this week, rainbow sweaters. Every denomination does its own form of bullying. We talk about how Paul brooked none of it. With us this week: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”) Steve Titch ("The Gambler") and host Bill Cox (“The Director”). Visit us at www.man-upspiritualoasis.com.

Podcast 136 -- Colossians 2:9-15 Paul's Run-on Sentence Jan 16, 2020

Show notes

100% Christ is sufficient--no additives--is the basic message of our faith. Yet it seems to be human nature to pile on extra stuff to attain salvation, be it circumcision in Paul's day, or necessary works, special rules and spiritual mysticism in ours. We dive into this wordy passage, reading translations from the NIV and "The Message." With us this week: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Robert Cocheu ("The Professor) and Kyle Trahan ("The Deacon"), injuries mended and back with us. Steve Titch ("The Gambler") hosts.

Podcast 135 -- Colossians 1:24-2:1-7 Fullness in Christ as Individuals and as a Church Jan 09, 2020

Show notes

We start the new year with a double lesson, looking at the mystery of the spirit-directed life and how we as men can express that through our participation in the genuine, living church. Mike Cropper (“The Judge”) and Robert Cocheu discuss with host Steve Titch ("The Gambler") host. Visit us at www.man-upspiritualoasis.com.

Podcast 134 – Colossians 1:20-23 Reconciliation and Hope Dec 19, 2019

Show notes

We talk about how the Cross of Christ reconciles each of us to God and God to creation. Bill is moved by Paul’s imagery of our reborn selves. Mike talks about the believer’s job to assist in building the new Kingdom. And is Col 1:20 a case for Universalism? Or does salvation depend on individual acceptance of grace? And in this Christmas season, we all address the idea of staying open to Spirit-led hope in a world filled with negativity.

Podcast 133 - Colossians 1:15:19 A Mystery Inside a Paradox Inside a Contradiction Dec 12, 2019

Show notes

Who is Jesus? Fully God and fully man, writes Paul, creator, sustainer and redeemer. We explore the primary theological idea behind Christianity—Jesus Christ as God-made-flesh in a conversation along the way touches on the image of God, the Son of God’s pre-incarnate appearances in the Old Testament, and Big Bang and quantum physics. With us this week: Robert Cocheau (“The Professor”) Mike Cropper (“The Judge”) and Steve Titch ("The Gambler"). Bill Cox (“The Director”) hosts. Visit us at www.man-upspiritualoasis.com.

Podcast 132 Colossians 1:1-14 The Fullness of Christ Dec 05, 2019

Show notes

We’re back after a break for Thanksgiving with the start of a study on Paul’s letter to the Colossian church. After looking at some of the overall themes of the letter, we talk about the encouragement Paul offers in words and prayers at the outset of his letter, and our own approaches to prayer, including Robert’s ACTS formula. With us this week: Robert Cocheau (“The Professor”) Mike Cropper (“The Judge”) and Steve Titch ("The Gambler"). Bill Cox (“The Director”) hosts. Visit us at www.man-upspiritualoasis.com.

Podcast 131 -- Matthew 28:18-20 Working on Commission Nov 21, 2019

Show notes

In our last installment on the Ten Commandments (plus two) we discuss the Great Commission, Jesus’ instruction to make disciples of all people. As men, we wonder if its best to witnessing with actions and attitudes, and leave the words to the preachers. Above all, the importance of love and human connection to any discipling endeavor. We also speak to the emergency at the Houston Food Bank (www.houstonfoodbank.org), which lost 2 million lbs. of food last week due to a refrigeration system failure and needs your help. With us this week: Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Steve Titch ("The Gambler") and host Bill Cox (“The Director”). Visit us at www.man-upspiritualoasis.com.

Podcast 130 – Matthew 23:35-39 The Greatest Commandment Nov 14, 2019

Show notes

Loving God is easy, Loving your neighbor is hard. We step our game and do an actual studio taping, and talk about who our neighbors really are—particularly the “invisible” souls around us who might simply need human contact and the acknowledgment that they, too, matter. It’s more than suspending judgment. Sometimes it means testing whether our own ingrained values truly reflect those of God. With us this week: Robert Cocheau (“The Professor”) Mike Cropper (“The Judge”), Steve Titch ("The Gambler") and Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”). Bill Cox (“The Director”) hosts.
