Preach Impediments

Jared Saltz and I continue our discussion of intertextuality, finding more clues for connections between the Old and New Testament.

Jared Saltz joins me as we discuss intertexuality, or better methods at finding clues in the Scriptures so we can better understand the message of God.

Adam continues the discussion of relativism and looks at the truths the Colossian brethren were fighting as he considers the way we give ourselves to truths other than God's truth.

Nathan Ward joins us to explain the danger and importance of relativism, the reality of its creeping into the church, and what we can do to combat such a dangerous notion.

Another way we struggle with offending others is by fixing it once it becomes a problem. There are two ways to fix offenses, and we discuss them both on this episode.

Our world love to be offended. Or at least it seems that way. Today, Glenn Blankenship joins me as we discuss why this is and what we should do about it.

Today, we explore the ways that God can "breathe" a message through various men or instruments.

Cloyce Sutton joins me on today's episode to discuss the idea of inspiration, and we dig deep into how it works when some scriptures seem so personal, not as if they come from God. Inspiration is important because it is part of the basis of our faith.

We spend some time looking at Psalm 62 to see if there is more we can learn about hope. It's the foundation of every good things we have as Christians.

Mark Roberts shares with us that media and constant bad news is a drain on our hope, and that if we'd choose instead to look in the Scriptures, we would find ourselves finding hope again. He also explains the PATH method for getting more out of your daily bible readings.

Mark Roberts takes us through the Bible's overwhelming teachings on "hope," and does so in a way that instills hope in us who belong to Christ.

Trying to wrap your brain around over 30,000+ verses in the Bible can be daunting. It's a lot of information. But having a system that will help you organize the Bible can be incredibly helpful. Discover with Colby Junkin the Seventeen Time Periods of the Bible as you seek to dig deeper into God's Word and understand it better than ever.

I spend some time talking about my own experience with denominations, especially marveling at how many there are. Do you know how many Christians denominations are out there? I think you'll be surprised.

Micah Rice discusses the issues surrounding denominationalism.

We look at the difference between a pastor and a cowboy, and then examine the work of Jesus as the Chief Shepherd and how it relates to the role of pastors in the church.

In today's episode, I interview Ralph Walker about the word "pastor." As both an evangelist and a pastor, he has a fantastic understanding of the difference between the two roles and what the word pastor should mean for us today.

Being all things to all people means learning how to treat them in an influential way. Gaining influence is easy as following a few steps. Listen for some practical instructions on gaining friends and influencing people.

Being "all things to all people" is a daunting task, and often a misunderstood task. Once we examine the purpose of Paul's words, it becomes clear what we are supposed to do.
