Text us here! Hershall, we ended with a tough conversation about waiting on God. It was a needful talk... Before we got there, we heard some good OLD songs and relived the past in a song. We had some feedback about whether or not we should pray over our pets and Deacon Dustin quoted another song wrong and Brooks pounced on that mistake faster than Trump with a Tariff (that was for all the people who faithfully read these descriptions and got jolted by my overtly political reference)(Just making sure you're still awake and still reading these valuable episode descriptions cause I have written a many of them now...) We also heard an elk hunting story and Brooks got some valuable marriage advice... Enjoy!

Pastor Appreciation Month is coming soon, and Jared and Ross want to get you in the right mindset to make a difference in your pastors' hearts and minds.

Pastor Cameron delivers today's message titled "Peace in Christ".Support the show
Brother Nick looks at Christian's speech from Colossians chapter four.
The sermon emphasizes the importance of proactive measures to prevent toxicity within a church community, drawing from Proverbs 22:3. It highlights the need to address toxic behavior promptly, recognizing that fostering a supportive environment, encouraging personal and spiritual growth, and resolving conflicts with wisdom and kindness are essential for maintaining a healthy congregation. The message underscores that true strength lies not in self-reliance but in acknowledging dependence on God's grace, discerning the difference between ideals and human limitations, and cultivating a culture of open communication and mutual respect, ultimately striving for a church that is 'hot' and aflame with the Holy Spirit rather than 'cold' and complacent.
The sermon explores the multifaceted nature of suffering, moving beyond its origins in sin and Satan to examine its potential for positive transformation. Drawing from Scripture, particularly Luke 10:25-37 (the Good Samaritan), the message emphasizes service to others as a direct response to suffering, highlighting the opportunity to embody Christ's compassion and demonstrate love for one's neighbor. The speaker underscores the importance of physical, spiritual, and material acts of service, ultimately asserting that a selfless life dedicated to serving others aligns with God's will and reflects the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
Bro Vincent Waltz - Wounded Spirit Ministries The sermon explores the transformative power of faith in navigating trauma, emphasizing that vulnerability and reliance on God's grace, rather than external solutions like medication or ministry involvement, are essential for healing. Drawing from personal experience with PTSD, the speaker recounts a journey from despair and resentment to finding solace and purpose through biblical counseling and a deeper understanding of the gospel as the foundation for strength and victory. Ultimately, the message encourages listeners to surrender their pain to God, trusting that He can redeem their suffering and use it to display His glory, ultimately leading to a life of purpose and enduring hope.

Today, Pastor Al Dagel shares some refreshing reminders of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
In this conversation, Pastor Joel Webbon and Dr. Stephen Wolfe discuss the historical context of Baptist persecution in early America, exploring the dynamics of religious liberty, the role of key figures like Roger Williams and Cotton Mather, and the evolution of Christian Nationalism within the American context. The dialogue emphasizes the complexities of church-state relations and the misunderstandings surrounding the First Amendment, ultimately advocating for a clear vision of America as a distinctly Christian nation
On today's program, David E. Taylor—the self-appointed apostle of Kingdom of God Global Church and head of Joshua Media Ministries—was arrested this week for forced labor and money laundering. If convicted, he could face more than 20 years in prison. We'll have details. And, a Kentucky church has encouraged their members to check books out of their local library, and not return them—ever. The books, many of them geared toward children, promote LGBTQ lifestyles, and the church is framing the thefts as an act of civil disobedience. We'll take a look. Plus, Dauphin Way Baptist Church used to be the largest Baptist church in Alabama. Now, it is selling its property and plans to downsize. But first, a PCA church in Newport Beach, California, is reeling after one of its elders was arrested for sexual assault. Redeemer Church of Orange County in Newport Beach, California, a 325-member congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), informed its congregation last week that one of its elders, Michael Maxwell, had been arrested by Irvine police for sexual crimes against a minor. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth. Writers who contributed to today's program include Kim Roberts, Daniel Ritchie, Yonat Shimron, Mark Wingfield, and Christina Darnell. A special thanks to Baptist News Global for contributing material for this week's podcast. Until next time, may God bless you.

In years past, many of God’s children understood what election was, as it is taught in God’s word. Sadly, today if you ask someone about election, they probably think about November. In this message, I examine the simple truth of God’s electing love and mercy. In order to comprehend why we had to be elected, …

Sam is joined by Todd Brown and Isaac Brown of Brown Church Development Group, who are “The Church Facility Experts.” In this second episode, they discuss how the Baptist T design still affects churches decades later–often in ways leaders don't realize. Here are five ways this design limits ministry today and what can be done to use your facility as a tool for mission, not as a monument to the past. The post How Your Building Shapes Your Ministry: Five Ways the Baptist T Still Shapes (and Limits) Your Ministry appeared first on Church Answers.
Sam is joined by Todd Brown and Isaac Brown of Brown Church Development Group, who are “The Church Facility Experts.” The design of your church might be shaping your culture more than you think. Building styles reflect ministry priorities–but if the building doesn't adapt, those priorities can become limitations. In this first episode, they explore the ‘Baptist T' (a common church layout from the 1960s to 1980s) and how it was built for a ministry model that no longer fits.

In “We Sure Eat Good When Someone Dies,” Gravy producer Caleb Johnson takes listeners back to August 2024, when his extended family gathered inside a Baptist church in Arley, Alabama, to mourn the loss of their matriarch—his grandmother, Celia Sampley. Before the funeral service, the church served lunch for the family, including chicken and dumplings, green-bean casserole, and plenty of desserts. A particular cake caught Caleb's eye that day, called a pea picking cake. In this episode, Caleb steps into the kitchen of the woman who baked that memorable cake and explores how eating something sweet helps us process grief. The cook's name is Sandra Stewart, and she was a good friend of Caleb's grandmother. They attended Bethel Baptist Church together for many years. When it came time to bake something for the funeral wake, Sandra looked through her large recipe book. She chose a pea picking cake because all the ingredients she needed were already in her pantry. Her choice was mainly for convenience. Traditionally, recipes for pea picking cake call for using a box cake mix. The first box cake mix was created in the 1930s, but it didn't become popular until after World War II. Caleb talks with food historian KC Hysmith about the mysterious origins of the pea picking cake and how it fits into a tradition of fancy box cakes that grew popular in the second half of the twentieth century, a time when home cooks started using more store-bought, convenience ingredients. Caleb also speaks with Dr. Candi K. Cann, a professor of religion at Baylor University and a self-described death scholar, about funeral traditions involving food around the world. She explains that these traditions help mourners revisit meaningful relationships. However, despite the close link between funerals and foodways, Dr. Cann says Americans aren't taught how to navigate grief, partly because individualism is a key part of the Protestant faith. She believes this has led to less emphasis on communal meals like the one served at Caleb's grandmother's wake. *** This episode was reported by Caleb Johnson. Johnson is the author of the novel Treeborne, and a frequent contributor to the Gravy podcast and magazine. He teaches creative writing at Appalachian State University.

Text us here! Hershall, Dustin is WHAT?? I hope all is well with you if you still listen to us... Maybe if you don;t you will start again afresh today. We had a rather significant happening today. I made the executive decision to ban a certain entertainer from this podcast... to cleanse the cast I had to use several songs and I think it worked. We talked about some important stuff along the way though. Things like: hobo's Shammah and his bean patch, unpaid electric bills, How to pack a vehicle for a trip. We ended by talking about how we can hear God's voice. Enjoy if possible!

Patrick tackles tough faith questions with honest, unscripted candor, from wrestling with Gospel passages on salvation to offering comfort for grief after a beloved pet’s loss. He fields calls about business ethics in old church buildings, kids’ biblical curiosities, salvation debates in marriage, and the sometimes-painful mysteries we all face. Listeners hear hard truths, genuine compassion, and the constant thread of hope rooted in Catholic wisdom. Michelle - Why would God create people if most of them are going to Hell? It almost seems like the devil wins because he gets most of God's children. (00:40) Terry - My friend is asking me to run a coffee shop in his Protestant Church. Can I do that? (12:22) Emily (8-years-old) - In 2 Kings it mentions that Elijah went up in a chariot of fire. Did he actually go to heaven or was it just a 'place of waiting?' (19:13) Cindy - I am struggling. I lost my pet last Thursday. Can you give me some words of comfort and advice? (22:57) Nancy - My husband is a Baptist.

Jeremy Beller's father, the late James Beller, is the author of America in Crimson Red, a study in early American Baptist History The interview explores the enduring legacy of Baptist Christians who, throughout history, prioritized faith over personal safety and comfort, exemplified by figures like Patrick of Ireland and Shubal Starnes. It emphasizes that persecution and sacrifice are inherent aspects of a life devoted to Christ, and that these individuals, rather than seeking recognition, lived out their faith, leaving behind a powerful testimony of resilience and commitment. The narrative underscores the importance of defending biblical doctrine, championing the right model for the church, and upholding principles of religious liberty, ultimately revealing that Baptist history is a story of unwavering devotion to Christ and a courageous defense of faith in the face of adversity.

Please enjoy this encore of Career Notes. Senior Vice President and Executive in Residence with Rapid7 and Chairman for Cyversity, Julian Waits, grew up in the era of the Justice League and Superman and it shaped his career. Julian always wanted to do something where he could find a way to help society to basically help others. Starting out as a Baptist minister with aspirations of being a professional musician, Julian found it more practical to take some technology classes and practice his saxophone when he had time. His first tech job was at Texaco where he worked on early networks and moved into systems engineering at Compaq. Julian notes his ADD made coding less attractive than talking with others to solve problems and Compaq provided him with opportunities to pivot. Searching out diversity, Julian moved to DC, and had his first taste of startups. He now describes himself as a serial entrepreneur. We thank Julian for sharing his story with us.
