Have you ever thought about the Popular Evangelical Women’s Ministry in America today? Do you read books by popular authors, attend their "bible" studies, and sold-out conferences? Do you ever wonder if these produce the maturity they claim to encourage?
In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Rhenn Cherry joins us to examine the theology within the Enneagram. Drawing from Scripture and years of theological study, Dr. Cherry discusses why the Enneagram is fundamentally unbiblical and how it conflicts with core Christian doctrine.

Explore the intersection of automatic writing, idolatry, and the Enneagram with renowned spiritual teacher Doreen Virtue. In this insightful discussion, Doreen shares her expertise on the spiritual risks of New Age tools, the Enneagram, and how the Ennea-types were developed through automatic writing. Is the Enneagram "just a personality test"? And should Christians "redeem" pagan spiritual tools to "gospel-center" them in hopes of making us more like Christ? Can we just "eat the meat and spit out the bones" of tools like these?May this episode expose the false teaching entering the church and bring glory to God.

In this episode, we critically examine the Gospel-centered Enneagram and its conflict with the sufficiency of Scripture to disciple others. Is using the Enneagram in a Christian context truly in line with biblical teachings? We explore how the Enneagram, even when framed through a Gospel lens, may undermine the all-sufficient Word of God. Join me as I discuss the dangers of integrating this “personality test” with Scripture and why it's crucial to rely solely on the Bible for guidance in life and faith.

Is the way we have seen, trained, and determined someone to be spiritual derived from Scripture or from mysticism? A lot of the popular examples of someone being spirit filled points us to people who have extraordinary experiences and witness supernatural signs and wonders. These are a sign that one has a deep relationship with God. And that relationship developed with continued personal supernatural experiences. These are the starting points to the relationship and are continually sought after to maintain or develop that relationship. These personal experiences are how people gauge they are intimate with God or, as people also say spiritual/spirit filled and led (aka are spiritual).But what does Scripture say about spirituality? What does the Spirit lead one to do when they are filled by Him? What does the Spirit filled/led person look like according to Scripture?Video Resources:Jim Osman on the spiritual gift of tongues:Part 1: https://youtu.be/7iSm-RKqzf8?si=LCpkH04CeYMgfAzqPart 2: https://youtu.be/WhRAXW5xPrQ?si=wTnncaqaHnwzVlktMay this episode expose the false teaching entering the church and bring glory to God.

How are these teachings entering the local churches and who are the Spiritual directors that are seen as the Masters of "spiritual" formation?

Teachers of Spiritual Formation inform Christians that implementing certain disciplines will help know God, experience Him, and hear His voice. They teach that these practices will help us grow spiritually because we become more intimate with God through them; that by them we "restore" our relationship with God.But is this all true? Does Scripture teach that we need these disciplines to become intimate with God and do we grow spiritually by practicing them?And what might happen to a woman's faith in Christ and His word if she decides to trust that these will bring her to into a deeper relationship with God and "enjoy Jesus"?May this episode expose the false teaching entering the church and bring glory to God.

At the 2020 IF:Gathering Conference Sadie Robertson Huff was assigned to give a message on Romans 8:39. In the message she urges women to keep themselves from getting distracted by "turning" to observe what God is doing in other people's lives. That, instead, they should be focusing on what God is doing in their lives. Why? Because God is building their testimony, and their testimony has the power to change hearts. Is this true? Do our testimonies have power? Is John 21 informing us that "turning" to ask Jesus what He is doing in other people's lives will cause us to "miss out" on "the reckless love God is chasing us" with? Does Scripture warn us against this? Is even what Romans 8:39 is about?May this episode expose the false teaching entering the church and bring glory to God.

While "sensual" is often used in a sexual context, it is not exclusively sexual in meaning. Sensual has to do with the 5 senses, and means "physically pleasing". Messages within women's ministry has become more and more sensual to spark the emotions of women. Feeling loved is more important than knowing truth. And Ann Voskamp's message at the IF:Gathering 2020 conference was a perfect example of making use of the eyes, ears, and emotions to concoct a message meant to entice the senses and tickle the ears.But how did Ann Voskamp handle Romans 8:32 in her message?May this episode expose the false teaching entering the church and bring glory to God.

The first question is: Is she in rebellion to Christ's authority?But how do we determine if she is rebelling against the authority of Christ? In this episode we look at just how submissive a female teacher is to the Headship of Christ over His church by looking at if she teaches or exercises authority over men in the Church.Resources used in video:Michelle Lesley Blog Post "Women Preaching: It's Not a Secondary Doctrinal Issue" https://michellelesley.com/2018/08/03/women-preaching-its-not-a-secondary-doctrinal-issue/Grace to You: Does the Bible Permit a Woman to Preach?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8ncOf82ZJ0&t=793sShould Women Preach in Our Lord's Day Worship Services?

Thoroughly Equipped Season 3 Episode 4 Since we have been diving into the IF:Ministry, listeners have asked how they can speak to their sisters who love the IF:Gathering and other teachers promoted there. In this episode, I want to help those who want to edify others by calling them to discernment. But how do we do this lovingly? Typically, we go straight to pointing out the problems we see with the teacher. We need to get to the heart of the issue; their heart and ours. May this episode bless you and glorify God!

Thoroughly Equipped Season 3 Episode 3 At the 10 year anniversary of the IF:Gathering back in February, Jennie Allen announced a new calling from God to assemble the global church on March 1st 2025. There are some questions and concerns I have with this “new calling” ranging from how this vision began to what Jennie is insinuating about Christ’s rule over the church to what it means for the IF:Ministry to assemble the global church. Let’s talk about Gather25.

Thoroughly Equipped Season 3 Episode 2 An interesting spat occurred on X about a month ago over a post by Samuel Sey who stated that he had to discipline his 4 month old son. The majority of responses accused Mr. Sey of mistreatment of his son. This made me wonder about what Christians have been taught over the last couple of decades about what discipline is. And so I thought I would talk about it. For an in depth study on a biblical worldview of discipline and the work of our Father’s hand in chastising his children I strongly suggest you listen to Jim Osman’s exegetical preaching on Hebrews 12. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLS1_5YJxqu71pLS_m2aIVnbRRa7GRVZbi Thoroughly Equipped Website & Blog: ttew.org Follow me on Facebook & Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/TEWMelbaToast https://www.instagram.com/thoroughlyequipped316/ Christian Podcast Community: Christianpodcastcommunity.org
Thoroughly Equipped Season 3 Episode 1 T.E. is back for a 3rd season! For episode one of this season I interview Doreen Virtue on her conversion from the New Age religion to Jesus Christ. Doreen Virtue was a top-selling new age author with heretical publications in 38 languages by various publishers, appearances on Oprah, and sold-out international workshops before God graciously saved her in 2017. Now she is a whistleblower exposing new age deception, and warning the church of false teachings on her YouTube channel, social media pages including Facebook, and in frequent interviews. Doreen has been featured on American Gospel 3, American Gospel TV, Daily Wire, Moody Radio, Spillover, Christianity Today, Cultish, and other Christian media. Doreen graduated with a Masters Degree in Biblical and Theological Studies (56 units with highest honors) from Western Seminary in 2021, and she holds a BA and MA in Counseling Psychology from Chapman University. On this episode we talk about certain beliefs within the New Age and it's similarities with the progressive, NAR, and deliverance ministries within the "evangelical" church. May this episode bless you and bring glory to God!

Thoroughly Equipped Season 2 Episode 38 Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion has been a hot topic in the economic sphere, but it's actually not limited there. This anti-racist infiltration has made a huge mark in the education realm and now has for the last couple of years gained access to Christian institutions and organizations. Under the last step given to white bridge builders in the Be the Bridge 101 guide, Be the Bridge exposes their desire to fundamentally change the church by defeating the white supremacy within it. How do they believe this work is done? Through Diversity, Equity and Inclusion training But not merely diversifying the leadership, but working toward equity and inclusion of, not only race, but theological views. How might diversity, equity, and inclusion come into your church? Let's dive in… Topics include: How Be the Bridge uses a false historical narrative to urge it's readers to become "Accomplices" within the American Church. How Anti-Racist presuppositions can influence how one sees the Church's role in the Abolitionist Movement The difference between diversity, equity, and inclusion and how they are being used to challenge Headship and Authority in the Church How D.E.I. is ultimately a rebellion against God and Christ's institution of Authority in the Church.

The Be The Bridge 101 Guide: Foundational Principals Every White Bridge Builder Needs to Know helps gives white people 4 steps to addressing their whiteness; White Identity, White Privilege, White Fragility, and White Supremacy.

What cultural ideas ignite white fragility in white people? Are they ideas worth being challenged and cast aside? What are the presuppositions behind white fragility? Is teaching white people to over come white fragility a good or bad thing? Does overcoming it, as we are instructed in Be The Bridge 101, actually bring unity to God's people?

Thoroughly Equipped Season 2 Episode 36 Latasha Morrison made the New York Times Best Seller list for her book Be The Bridge. While the book informs Christians of the importance of racial reconciliation, it's also the gateway into her training program/ministry of the same name. To become a Bridge Builder, we are told to follow the Be the Bridge Face Book group. In signing up for the group ALL members are required to silently observe the conversation in the group and do the REQUIRED reading of the guides before commenting and entering into the conversation. Today I will present to you their first required reading for white people titled Be the Bridge 101: Foundational Principals Every White Bridge Builder Needs to Know and the first 2 tenants of Whiteness, white people must learn about so they can start leveraging their whiteness; identify their white heritage, divest themselves of their pride, privilege, & fragility, and fight against white supremacy as ani-racists. Topics include: What is the Be the Bridge Ministry? Should white Christians identify with their white heritage to reconcile and unify with POC? Is privilege a sin? What is oppression and how do we fight it according to Scripture? We look at some of the privileges Be the Bridge says white people have. Are they actual privileges based on race?

Exposing how Be The Bridge's trains Christians to become Ant-Racists.

Thoroughly Equipped Season 2 Episode 33 Exposing how the American Christian Church is accepting the tenants of Critical Race Theory through Be the Bridge's ministry on racial reconciliation. This "ministry" trains people to believe that racism is systemic and white people are complicit and/or are racist by perpetuating the system because they do not act against it through leveraging their privilege and working toward equity.

Thoroughly Equipped S.2 Ep.32 What is Critical Race Theory? What does it teach? Should Critical Race Theory be used as an analytical tool? And is this theory something you should worry about? In this episode I interview Andrew Rappaport from the Rapp Report to tackle these questions. Before we dive into the Be the Bridge ministry and other racial reconciliation ministries promoted at the IF:Gathering, we need to lay the ground work and look at the presuppositions that come with Critical Race Theory. This way when we look at these ministries and what they claim and teach, we will see how they incorporate CRT as an analytical tool and assume certain things in regards to racism and white superiority. If we get the problem wrong, the solution will be wrong. If we misdiagnose the problem there will be no reconciliation. So will incorporating Critical Race Theory as an analytical tool help the church with racial reconciliation? Does it accurately diagnose the problem?

On this episode, I present to you my discussion with Jon Harris from The Conversations That Matter YT Channel, where we discuss the Social Gospel and the infiltration of Social Justice ideology in the church today. Jon Harris is the author of Christianity and Social Justice and Social Justice Goes to Church, both which were incredibly informative on the Social Gospel and Social Justice. I've been a subscriber to his channel for awhile and it's been a great resource in helping me identify how both are entering the evangelical church today. So I wanted to bring him into TE to look more at what the Social Gospel is, where it stems from, and how it connects Social Justice. If you want to dive into this issue as well, I suggest you pick up his book and check out his channel. It was such an honor to meet Jon Harris and discuss this topic.

What does IF:Equip's Arise teach about Jesus and Social Justice? IF:Equip's Arise, claims that Jesus' ministry was mostly focused on the marginalized, oppressed, and poor in society. His purpose was to always set free, and heal and that these acts of mercy and compassion were Jesus fighting for justice. In this episode we will look at how IF:Equip's Arise presents Jesus. We will look at what they claim His mission and ministry was. Both Social Gospel and IF:Equip's Arise teach that Jesus set about to uproot social norms, and to bring temporal comforts to social groups. They claim that Jesus was stating that His this was His mission by quoting Isaiah 61:1-2 to make this claim in Luke 4:16-18. But is this true? What did Jesus mean by quoting Isaiah 61:1-2? IF:Equip's Arise also makes the claim that Jesus was always quick to heal, feed, and rescue the oppressed; that Jesus always did these things when presenting the Gospel and was even willing to "break a rule" to love His neighbor through social acts of restoration. I wanted to look at Scripture and see if that was true. Bottom line: what is the problem with presenting Jesus as a Social Justice warrior? Where might this lead an unbeliever or a new convert? What might this do to the faith, assurance, and sanctification of a wife and a mother?

Thoroughly Equipped Season 2 Episode 29 IF:Equip's Arise, claims that the church is the light of the world whose mission is to bring restoration to it by "fighting against the darkness". Today we will look at the other 2 foundations IF:Equip's Arise presents for why Christian (specifically Christian women) are to fight for justice…that, as followers of Christ, we are the light of the world and must “push back the darkness of injustice” and that we were restored to restore the world through reconciliation. In essence the mission of the church is to bring justice to this world. All of this at first glance sounds biblical, sounds true. The statement that Christ followers are the light of the world and are to push back against the darkness is a true statement. Where we start to see problems is when we begin to understand what Arise means by being lights, and what Arise teaches about how we are to push back against the darkness. Arise has a specific teaching in this study about what it means to be a light. What does IF:Equip's Arise teach the darkness is? What does IF:Equip's Arise teach about what it means to be the light and walk in the light? How is a Christian to bring restoration? What does the church need to do to bring reconciliation? Does IF: Equip's Arise teach what Scripture teaches about what it means to be a light in the world, what it means to fight the darkness, and how a Christian woman is to bring reconciliation and restoration? Let's compare it to Scripture.

Thoroughly Equipped Season 2 Episode 28 Is justice a Gospel issue? Justice is an important issue that is at the foundation of the Gospel. It has been a highly charged topic in our society today. God is just therefore justice should be important to the Christian. But to exercise justice it must be rightly defined, depend on who God is, and should be guided by God's word. We can claim God is just but we must first ask what does it mean to be "just". Does IF:Equip's women's discipleship study Arise: A Study on God's Heart for Justice lay a solid foundation that will produce true justice? Let's dive in and look at what IF:Equip's Arise teaches about justice. Topics include: Why is justice important according to IF:Arise? What is justice and what does it have to do with righteousness? The image of God a good place to start with when we want to study justice? Is justice a Gospel work? Does IF:Arise sow Social Gospel seeds?
