The Word and the Glass — Fiction
The Word and the Glass

Join us each week as we present real world topics through the lens of Doctrine, Theology, and the inerrant Word of God. “See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.” – Colossians 2:8.We must address every decision, every action, every choice through the lens of scripture. Each week we will address a given topic in written oration, round-tables, and Q&As. This podcast is a Strasburg Baptist Church ministry that is wholly dedicated to a biblical world view. If you are curious or interested in what the Word of God has to say about today’s culture, today’s ideology, and today’s message, I promise you that this is a podcast that you’ll want to follow. How do we navigate a society that is becoming more and more at odds with scripture? The Word and The Glass is a round table discussion that looks at this question and finds answers from the inerrant, infallible, inspired and sole authority of the Bible. Topics have included: The pandemic, what our identity is in Christ, the church and your children, the power of truth and tongue, speaking truth in love, and the SBC 2021 meeting. We have a new studio and have upgraded and improved the audio quality immensely. We have also found a rhythm at the table that is genuine and easy to listen to and really comes across to the listenership as authentic. If you need encouragement, if you need answers, if you need direction, if you need truth, join us as we dive deep into the word of God and seek for these things. New episodes are uploaded every Monday morning at 6am CST.

Responding to Lies Aug 16, 2021

Show notes

This week we are responding to an article titled "8 Things Christians say that just ain't true".

This article is a provocative hit-piece at best... at worst it is full of deception and aimed to lead readers away from God and His word.

Normally, I wouldn't give an article like this the time of day, but seeing that these lies are permeating rapidly throughout our culture, I thought it might be a good idea to present it to the table and discuss.

The 8 points that we dive into today are:

1. Masturbation is not a divine crime

2. No, Jeremiah doesn't say everyone is "wicked"

3. No, God doesn't hate women

4. No, God is not all-male

5. Women can be "clergy" if they want

6. No, divorces aren't some spiritual crime

7. No, God doesn't hate prostitutes

8. No, God doesn't hate LGBT people

Join us as we read from scripture to determine what God truly says about these 8 points

Sodom and Gomorrah II - The Word and The Glass - From the Pulpit to the Podcast Aug 09, 2021

Show notes

You’ll remember from last time that God had appeared to Abraham along with two angels.

He then shared his plan to protect His covenant with Abraham… by destroying the morally depraved people in Sodom and Gomorrah.

From there God sent two angels to observe the state of the city first hand. Upon arrival, they met Abraham’s nephew, Lot, and went to his home for the night.

But after they had prepared for bed, a mob, consisting of every man in the city came demanding that they be permitted to ‘lay with’ the angelic beings.

After chastisement from Lot, the crowd was struck with blindness by the angels of the Lord.

And this is where we pick up the story.

What is our Hope Aug 02, 2021

Show notes

The Psalmist asks in Psalm 2:

Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain?

The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together,

against the Lord and against his Anointed, saying,

“Let us burst their bonds apart and cast away their cords from us.”

Join us this week as we discuss hope!

Sodom and Gomorrah - The Word & The Glass - From the Pulpit to the Podcast Ep. 2 Jul 26, 2021

Show notes

This week Stephan looks at Genesis 18 and 19. This is a very difficult message to hear and, I'm sure, doubly difficult to speak. Difficult only in the fact that so much of it stands in direct opposition to the current culture.

Even so, 1 Corinthians 1:18 tells us: "For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God."

And Peter exhorts us in 1 Peter 2, saying: "So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe, “The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,” and “A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do."

Join us for Episode 2 of The Word and The Glass "From the Pulpit to the Podcast" series.

Biblical Manhood Jul 19, 2021

Show notes

“Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” - 1 Corinthians 16:13-14

In a day and age when masculinity is considered toxic and effeminacy is a celebrated virtue, how are Christian men supposed to conduct themselves?

What are we charged with biblically?

How are we to conduct ourselves according to the Bible, especially knowing we struggle not against flesh and blood?

It seems to me that if the apostles thought it necessary to tell the church to “be on the alert”, or to “be on guard”, or to be “prepare… for action”, then we mustn’t be complacent. We must consider our calling. We must be men of God. Follow Jesus, regardless of the consequences.

I’m thinking of all the calls to be alert, be on guard, hold fast, stand firm. All calls for action.

It is no exaggeration to say that “how we conduct ourselves now will have eternal implications.”

If WE don’t stand firm, who else will? ...But If we don’t prepare ourselves, how will we be able to stand firm?

“Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed that he does not fall.”

- 1 Corinthians 10:12

The Word & The Glass Ep 6 Sex and the Assault on Our Families Jul 05, 2021

Show notes

Satan wants our Children
Children under the age of 10 now represent 22% of online pornography consumption in the UNDER 18 age bracket. Let that sink in.

And this is not late night “skin-i-max” or “playboy”. This is not “softcore”. The #1 site visited by children in this age bracket is Pornhub. Pornhub receives 42 BILLION visits a year and releases its top searches in a “safe for work” report that shows violent, degrading, exploitative and rape scenarios as being the most viewed. This is not a discussion on porn or the sick, demented, purely evil ways that these girls (and boys) are coerced, drugged and forced into these scenes... but the REALITY of what is out there plays a pivotal role in our discussion for today.

The Word & The Glass Ep. 5 Is "Good Enough" Good Enough? Who Then Can Be Saved? Jun 26, 2021

Show notes

Please join us as we look to what the Bible says about the idea of "Good Enough" and then the question: Who then can be saved.
This was a heavy time at the table. There were tears, not to mention unrelenting thunderstorms and trains.
But, the outcome was a blessing.
Praise God!
Be encouraged, Christian. God is at work even now.
