In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan Rittenhouse sits down in Kona, Hawaii with Lindsey from the YWAM Countercultural School of Apologetics to unpack one of the biggest questions facing the modern church: how should Christians navigate influencer culture, online discipleship, and the tension between digital convenience and real spiritual formation? Lindsey and Nathan explore the rise of untrained “Christian influencers,” the responsibility of discernment, the longing for embodied community, the need for multi-generational mentorship, and the subtle dangers of intellectual shortcuts in the age of AI and endless content. Their conversation invites believers into deeper thinking, meaningful connection, and a return to slow, faithful discipleship rooted in the local church. Perfect for Christians hungry for thoughtful apologetics, theology, and wisdom for following Jesus in a digital world.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

Welcome to Simple Christmas with Rusty George!The Purpose of Waiting: Discovering Hope in the Waiting RoomIn this episode, Pastor Rusty George explores the discomfort and frustration commonly associated with waiting. Drawing parallels from everyday life and biblical examples, he delves into how waiting is a crucial part of our faith journey. He illustrates how figures like Abraham, Joseph, and David underwent prolonged periods of waiting that ultimately deepened their trust, refined their character, and redirected their futures. Pastor George emphasizes that waiting is not wasted time but a period of divine preparation. He offers practical advice on maintaining hope through trust in God, staying connected to community, and serving others. The episode ties in the significance of the Advent season, highlighting the 'candle of hope' as a symbol of confident expectation based on God's proven track record. As we navigate our own periods of waiting, Pastor George reassures us that we are not alone; God is with us, filling us with joy and peace.00:00 Introduction: The Agony of Waiting00:27 The Biblical Perspective on Waiting01:18 Modern Culture's Impatience01:45 Personal Struggles and Lessons Learned02:29 Biblical Examples of Waiting03:32 God's Purpose in the Waiting05:56 Practical Steps to Embrace Waiting08:36 Conclusion: Hope in the Waiting

SEND US A MESSAGE! We'd Love to Chat With you and Hear your thoughts! We'll read them on the next episode. I am joined by fellow believer, author and former President of International Christian Concern (ICC), Jeff King. In this episode we peel back the layers of Islam, a religion that seems to evade the harsh criticisms ostensibly reserved only for Christianity. If you want to understand the heart of any movement, look to its leader. That is what we did in this episode. Jeff brings his expertise in persecutions around the world along with the wisdom he gained from compiling his work Islam Uncensored and brings you the movement unmasked. This episode is not meant to slander nor to mock but to serve as an invitation to Jesus to all who desire true freedom, rest and peace. Support the showHosts: Brandon and Daren Smith Learn of Brandon's Church Planting CallPatreon: www.patreon.com/blackandblurredPaypal: https://paypal.me/blackandblurredYouTube: Black and Blurred PodcastIG: @BlackandBlurredPodcastX: @Blurred_Podcast

Why is identity such a crisis in our culture right now? We’re constantly told to “live your truth,” “follow your feelings,” and “be whoever you want to be.” But what if our feelings aren’t always telling us the truth and what if real freedom is actually found somewhere else? Today, I have Dr. JP Foster, senior pastor at Faithful Central Bible Church and co-author (with Dr. Matt Williams) of the new book Finding Freedom in Jesus to discuss these "problematic" statements. The book walks through 21 key identity terms (created in Christ, restored in Christ, confident in Christ), paired with real testimonies and practical reflection questions to help truth move from head to heart.

Most of the content one will find on the internet or in book stores on the topic of spiritual gifts is predominantly from a Christian perspective. It is almost as though spiritual gifts, or at least the therm, belongs exclusively to one religion. In this teaching I explain why that is not true, and i Strip away misconceptions created by modern Christian perspectives on the topic. I hope you enjoy it.

Join the show with a TEXT here!There's no better time than Thanksgiving to pause and reflect on the gospel's enduring truths. In this episode, we dive into a recent debate on the nature of justification between a Protestant and a Roman Catholic. This conversation opens up rich insights into Scripture, tradition, and the ongoing call to evangelize—not only among Roman Catholics but also the Eastern Orthodox who share similar perspectives in this area of theology. Along the way, I'll also share of what first sparked my passion for creating this content—my journey into apologetics and the conviction that the church must be equipped to stand firm against false teaching while boldly proclaiming the truth.So grab your Bible (and maybe a snack), settle in, and let's explore together!

What does it really mean to be Protestant? Is it simply “not Catholic,” or does it stand for a positive, historic, and biblically-rooted vision of Christianity? Today, I'm speaking with my Biola University colleague Dr. Fred Sanders. We discuss the meaning, history, and theological distinctives of Protestantism. Sanders explains why the term “Protestant” is often misunderstood, how the Reformation connects to the entire Christian tradition, and what Protestants believe about Scripture, grace, justification and good works.

Today, science has uncovered many wonders about the cosmos and about life within it, but science has also "reduced" most everything in the universe to virtually nothing. In our attempt to understand the universe and ourselves down to a quantified, subatomic constituency we have not only emptied the universe, but also virtually emptied ourselves. C.S. Lewis well understood that scientific quantification of the physical universe and scientific empiricism in general, cannot be the foundational paradigm for how we understand the cosmos and our place within it. Lewis was not criticizing science per se, however. Rather, he was highly critical of the belief that the scientific quantification of reality was the only way to understand reality. In such a universe, the essential facets of what make us human, morality, virtue, truth, beauty, and goodness all become mere emotive sentiments. This week on the Profile we continue our conversation with C.S. Lewis scholar Dr. Michael Ward about Lewis's prescient work The Abolition of Man and how it remains relevant for us today. From michaelward.netMichael Ward is an English literary critic and theologian. He works at the University of Oxford where he is an associate member of the Faculty of Theology and Religion. He is the author of the award-winning and best-selling Planet Narnia: The Seven Heavens in the Imagination of C.S. Lewis (Oxford University Press) and of After Humanity: A Guide to C.S. Lewis's The Abolition of Man (Word on Fire Academic); he is the co-editor of The Cambridge Companion to C.S. Lewis (Cambridge University Press). Though based at Oxford in his native England, Dr Ward is also employed as Professor of Apologetics at Houston Christian University, Texas, teaching one course per semester as part of the online MA program in Christian Apologetics.Free Four-Page Articles From Watchman FellowshipCharles Darwin Carl Sagan's CosmosNaturalism Deconstruction FREE: We are also offering a subscription to our 4-page bimonthly Profiles here: www.watchman.org/Free.PROFILE NOTEBOOK: Order the complete collection of Watchman Fellowship Profiles (over 600 pages -- from Astrology to Zen Buddhism) in either printed or PDF formats here: www.watchman.org/notebook.

Pilgrim in the Algorithm: How Digital Echo Chambers Poison Your Faith What would Pilgrim's Progress look like in the digital Age? How do we manage the unique threats Christian must overcome when walking not through the Slough of Despond, but the feed-driven maze of modern algorithms? Our attachment to social media brings with it risks. In an age of outrage, tribalism, provokers, and digital distractions, believers face new versions of Bunyan's ancient dangers—each more subtle and seductive than the last. This talk exposes the poisonous characters hiding in your timeline, reveals how Romans 16 warns us against them, and equips you to walk wisely, innocently, and faithfully toward the Celestial City.

It's probably the most significant of all church history's debates: Was Jesus fully human, fully divine, or a hybrid of some sort?1700 years ago, bishops from across the Christian world gathered in the city of Nicaea to settle this once and for all.The outcome was three paragraphs which went on to represent the core of Christianity, and spell out who Jesus is - and who he isn't.(00:00) - - Jesus: Man or something else?

Today on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of overcoming hurdles in the Christian faith. Understanding Jesus' message and example of servitude and humility was our topic. The scripture reference was Moody Bible Institute professor, Dr. Sanjay Merchant. He teaches Apologetics, Philosophy, Theology, and Trinitarian Theology. Dr. Merchant expressed that Christian humility and servitude are freedom, and what it looks like in his life. Dr. Kevin Leman also joined us to talk about his new book, "The Way of the Teacher: 40 Principles for Success in the Classroom and Life". He is an internationally known psychologist, award-winning author, teacher, radio and television personality, humorist, and speaker.
