Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | RSS This week, we're talking about income inequality. Many people see this as a problem, and will sometimes even use the Bible to argue for governments to enact laws that would confiscate the wealth of the rich and redistribute it to the poor. Does the Bible call for something like […]

Do you want to pray for missionaries but don't know where to start — or wonder if it even makes a difference? In this episode of Fuel for the Harvest, Nathan sits down with fellow Forge speaker Santiago Fuentes, joining all the way from Mexico City, for one of the most theologically rich and practically helpful conversations the podcast has ever had on the topic of prayer.From a deep dive into Colossians 4 to a list of real ministries you can follow today, this episode will challenge you to stop treating prayer like a spiritual band-aid — and start treating it like the powerful act of devotion it actually is.In this episode, Nathan and Santiago Fuentes cover:Why God answers prayer — and what we miss when we don't prayThe difference between God being limited and us limiting our own experience of GodA powerful breakdown of Colossians 4:2-4 and what it means to truly "devote yourself to prayer"What the Apostle Paul asked for from prison — and why it wasn't what you'd expectThree specific categories of people to pray for: unreached people groups, persecuted believers, and missionaries themselvesTrusted ministries to follow for fresh, specific prayer requests: Open Doors, Voice of the Martyrs, and the Joshua ProjectWhy Billy Graham's answer to "how can I help your ministry?" was always the same one wordSantiago Fuentes is a bilingual Forge speaker available to speak at your event.

Discover how tithing, generosity, and biblical stewardship break the grip of fear and scarcity, teaching us to trust God with everything He has placed in our hands.

True biblical manhood isn't defined by career success — it's forged in the Word of God. On today's edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson talks with David Jeffers, a retired Army Master Sergeant, and author of Man Up! What the Bible Says About Being a Man. Jeffers shares his remarkable journey through divorce, military service, and the loss of his son in combat. He also reflects on how Scripture recalibrated his understanding of godly manhood.

Replacement theology states that God's promises in the Bible are no longer for the Jewish people but only for Christians. There is so much deception and propaganda spreading in our time. We are truly in a spiritual war, and we must be fighting for truth to prevail. Narratives are growing in popular culture that the current Jewish people in Israel are not Abraham's Biblical descendants, but before you follow the loudest voice, what does the Bible have to say? 

(This podcast was previously published on July 30, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   Jesus is coming to gather the elect of God and take them off this earth to that new heaven and new earth which is created by God for the elect of God.   Jesus says:  Matthew 24:29-31  Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:  And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.  And HE (Jesus) shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.   The elect of God are those persons chosen by God for salvation.  Those persons to whom God reveals HIMSELF.  Those persons who are instantly changed by God into new creatures, not by their own will or by their own works, but by God's will.   This is explained in Romans 9 and Ephesians 1.

(This podcast was previously published on April 17, 2022)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   The world:   1 John 2:15  Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.   16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.   17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.  

In 2008, Jordan Rubin was the CEO of one of the largest natural health companies in the world when he was diagnosed with a fast-growing, metastatic cancer and given just 90 days to live. Instead of accepting a death sentence, he fired his oncologist, locked himself away for 40 days, and developed one of the most comprehensive spiritual and physical healing protocols ever documented. In this episode, we dive into the untold secrets of ancient medicine. We explore why unhealed emotional trauma and unforgiveness act as severe cellular toxins, and why repenting is just as crucial as detoxing your liver. We also decode the forgotten science of "healing leaves"—explaining how the specific tannins found in blackberry, raspberry, and oak leaves can physically tighten leaky gut and reverse chronic digestive disease.

Luke 15:11-31

Is it okay for Christians to choose to only “go to church” online? To answer this question, we welcome Tim Hawman, the lead pastor at Emmanuel Baptist Church, onto the podcast. Tim lays out the biblical principles that will help answer the question of whether or not it is necessary to physically attend church.

Why do we fill our lives with so much noise? Why does slowing down feel uncomfortable or even unproductive?   Madi dives into the story of Martha and Mary in Luke 10 and calls out something most of us don't want to admit… we're busy doing FOR Jesus, but not actually being WITH Him.   This episode gets honest about distraction, performance, busyness, and the pressure to "do more," and how it can pull us away from what actually matters most.   My prayer is that you would slow down, refocus your heart, and choose what matters most… being with Jesus over doing for Him. New episodes every Thursday at 7am EST

Luke 10:25-37

In this episode, I review a debate between Gavin Ortlund (Reformed Baptist), Ruslan KD (Evangelical), and Trent Horn (Catholic) on the issue of confession. I talk about all the verses in the Bible that I can find that talk about confession and highlight the power God has designed confession to have for believers. To access the sources for this episode, visit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5UG90KTs-UTo become a subscriber of this podcast, visit:⁠⁠https://anchor.fm/seth-hensley/subscribe⁠

Can I be honest with you? A lot of us are completely worn out by our own minds and we don't even realize why. We've been taught that "taking every thought captive" means catching every bad thought, fixing it, and never letting it happen again. So we monitor, we analyze, we panic, and then we feel shame when it doesn't work. In this episode, I'm going back to 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 and talking about what this scripture is actually inviting us into, because it's so much less exhausting than what most of us have been doing. Also, don't forget!

The real question isn't "Can a Christian drink?"—it's "What's controlling you?" Summary This message confronts the modern confusion surrounding alcohol, freedom, and spiritual maturity by shifting the focus from permission to mastery. Scripture does not condemn alcohol itself, but it consistently warns against drunkenness, addiction, loss of self-control, and being mastered by anything other than Christ. The deeper issue is dependence—whether believers are looking to substances for escape, peace, identity, or relief instead of the Holy Spirit. Mature Christianity stops asking, "What can I get away with?" and starts asking, "What best reflects Christ and builds others up?" Reflection & Small Group Discussion Questions 1. Why do you think many Christians ask, "How much can I get away with?" instead of "What honors Christ?" 2. How does 1 Corinthians 6:12 help frame the issue of alcohol and personal freedom? 3. Why is the Bible's concern more about mastery and dependence than the substance itself? 4. What is the difference between freedom in Christ and freedom to sin? 5. How does modern intoxication culture differ from the biblical context of wine and celebration? 6. Why is self-control such an important fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23)? 7. How can a believer unintentionally damage their witness or influence weaker believers through their choices? 8. What are some modern "escape mechanisms" people use besides alcohol? 9. Why is the "cool pastor" drinking culture potentially harmful to recovering addicts and struggling believers? 10. What would it look like practically to live "fully alive" without dependence on substances?

Luke 1:5-20; 26-38; 39-45

Why is the Bible constantly in the crosshairs of the secular world?

When you understand how biblical rest and health stewardship reshape your mindset, your body, and your spirit, you can turn burnout, overwhelm, anxiety, and striving into clarity, strength, peace, and purpose.In this episode of The OWN IT Show, Justin Roethlingshoefer sits down with Pastor Keion Henderson (The Lighthouse Church, Houston) to break down why pastors and leaders burn out—and what Scripture teaches about rest, rhythms, and stewarding your body as worship (not performance).In this episode, you'll learn:✅ Keion's origin story: growing up in Gary, Indiana, and how God redeemed his identity and calling  ✅ Why leaders burn out: rewarded for output, undertrained on processing (“the body keeps score”)  ✅ Discipline vs integration: why most leaders don't lack discipline—they lack alignment (mind, body, soul)  ✅ Rest isn't laziness: how Sabbath + margin become obedience and longevity, not guilt  ✅ The “Shift” moment: when everything changed—and what it taught him about purpose over platform  ✅ Why your health is worship: building capacity to carry your calling for the long haul  ==============================================================================About Pastor Keion HendersonPastor Keion Henderson is the Founder and Senior Pastor of The Lighthouse Church and Ministries in Houston, Texas, and a bestselling author known for helping people pursue purpose, progress, and spiritual alignment.Connect with Pastor Keion:➡︎ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pastorkeion/➡︎ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KeionHendersonTV➡︎ The Lighthouse Church: https://tlhc.org/➡︎ Pastor Keion site: https://www.pastorkeion.com/Books by Pastor Keion:➡︎ The Shift: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/keion-henderson/the-shift/9781546014911/➡︎ Lazy Love: https://www.faithwords.com/titles/keion-henderson/lazy-love/9781546006831/Support the show

Most of us grew up thinking Christian community meant having people over to a perfectly clean home with a home-cooked meal and a curated playlist. And because that feels impossible we just… don't do it. But what if that's not what biblical hospitality is at all?In this episode, we break down the difference between entertaining and true biblical hospitality and why that difference changes everything. Entertaining is about impressing people. Hospitality is about serving them. One is performance. The other is presence. And the Bible is pretty clear about which one God is calling us to.We dig into 1 Peter 4:9, the story of Martha and Mary in Luke 10, and Romans 15:7 and pull out a definition of hospitality that actually fits the Christian lifestyle we're all trying to live. Spoiler: it has nothing to do with your home, your cooking, or whether your couch is Instagram-worthy.In this episode: • The real difference between entertaining and biblical hospitality • Why God's command to be hospitable has nothing to do with perfection • What the Greek word for hospitality actually means (hint: it's about strangers) • How Martha and Mary show us presence always wins over preparation • 4 simple ways to start practicing real hospitality this weekYou don't have to be perfect. You just have to be present."I'm not going to see the dust on your mantelpiece if I'm looking you eye to eye and you're showing me how much you care about me."SUBSCRIBE to our channel / @binmin_org JOIN the NEWSLETTER at https://binmin.org/newsletter/SUPPORT Binmin with a tax-deductible gift HERE - https://binmin.org/donate0:50 - ENTERTAINING VS.

Many believers wrestle with the tension between what Scripture says about God's nearness and what they actually experience in moments of silence, pain, or emotional heaviness. There are seasons where God feels distant, not because faith is gone, but because something inside doesn't register His presence the way it once did. If you've ever wondered why you can believe God is close and still feel far from Him, or why prayer can feel like it's going unanswered in the middle of real struggle, this episode is for you. Today, we slow down that disconnect and look at what may be shaping your experience of distance so you can begin to understand it with more honesty and less self-blame.

In this message from 1 Timothy 1:12–16, Pastor Zach Ginn looks at the Apostle Paul's testimony and the overflowing grace of Jesus Christ. Paul had a painful past as a blasphemer, persecutor, and enemy of the church, yet Jesus showed him mercy and appointed him to ministry.At River Oak Church, we are a welcoming family of imperfect people who share a passion for God, a passion for others, and a passion for graciously sharing the good news of Jesus Christ.  We enjoy an informal environment and Christ-exalting modern worship, and we are committed to following the truth of God's Word.  We welcome you to come as you are, from wherever you've been, and join us!To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world click here: https://riveroakchurch.org/give/Support the show

In this thought-provoking episode, Family Engagement Pastor Bradley Hamilton dives deep into the importance of asking questions and investigating faith, especially for the next generation. He shares his personal journey and the significance of creating a safe space for doubts and inquiries within the church community. Bradley discusses the challenges faced by students today as they grapple with their beliefs and the need for adult answers to adult questions. He emphasizes that Christianity was never meant to be a "check your brain at the door" religion, but rather an invitation to explore and understand the evidence behind faith. Join us as we explore the story of the Bible, starting with the Gospel of Luke, and uncover the extraordinary events that led to the formation of Christianity. Discover how the early followers of Jesus documented their experiences and how their convictions transformed the world, long before the Bible was compiled. Whether you're new to faith or have been on this journey for a while, this episode encourages you to consider what it means to take Jesus seriously and how His message can impact your life today. Don't forget to check out the resources mentioned in the episode to help you navigate your own questions about faith! Read along with our chosen scripture: Luke 3:1–2 The Main Idea: Christianity does not hang by the thread of “The Bible tells me so.” Modern version. The original version is the defensible, endurable, persecute-able, fearless, compassionate, compelling version. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We are an alternative to church as usual. Our Sunday worship service is approximately a 75-minute experience designed to introduce people to the message of Jesus and equip believers to live their lives in response to the Gospel while their kids enjoy one of our safe children's environments. Centerpoint is designed to meet you wherever you are on the journey whether you are just checking out the "church thing" or you are a committed Christ follower. Centerpoint is a casual environment that combines today's music with creative media and relevant teaching. We hope you will visit us at Centerpoint Church regardless of what your past church experience has looked like.

Have you ever felt stuck in that tension between what you want… and what you know you should do? You wake up determined—today's the day I'm going to be good. But then the cravings hit.

Deacon Zach McCulloch speaks on the relationship between employers and employees from 1 Peter 2:13.bfc4u.org, facebook.com/bfc4u

Hot takes are everywhere, and in a culture driven by TikTok clips and instant opinions, it's getting harder to tell the difference between confident voices and actual truth. Jase, Al, and Zach push back on the growing trend of soundbite theology, where complex biblical ideas are reduced to quick, oversimplified answers that often miss the bigger picture. Using current debates around Israel and broader theological disagreements, the guys highlight how easily people can present personal interpretations as absolute biblical truth.

Is education about information—or formation? Kevin and Danny return to a conversation on Greek vs biblical education and the aberrant views of knowledge that have led to apostasy in the West. What shapes a child more: Aristotle or the Word of God? Should schooling aim at intellectual excellence, or at discipleship that engages the head, heart, and hands? And in the end, what are the biblical principles and standards for raising well-educated children?

In this episode, Grant gets real about ANXIETY… what it looks like, how it shows up in our everyday lives, and why it's something so many of us quietly carry. Anxiety isn't just about what's happening around us… it's often rooted in what we believe about God. Is He near? Does He actually care? The truth is, God is not distant in heaven, removed from your situation. He is present, personal, and fully aware of what you need, even before you ask. And the way we fight anxiety isn't by trying to control every outcome… it's by learning to worship in the middle of uncertainty.   In this conversation, Grant talks about: -How anxiety can reveal misplaced trust -What Jesus meant when He said "do not worry about your life" -Why God's nearness changes everything -How worship becomes a weapon against anxiety   My prayer is that you would be reminded of God's closeness and begin to experience the kind of peace that only comes from trusting Him.   New episodes every Thursday at 7am EST

Are most, if not all, unbelievers demonized? It sounds extreme. But Scripture might be less ambiguous about this than the modern church wants to admit.Most Christians default to one picture when they hear the word "demonized" - the Gadarene demoniac from Mark 5, a naked man in the tombs, chains broken, screaming at Jesus. That's a level 10. But the Bible describes demonic influence across a spectrum, and the passages we tend to skip suggest that every person outside of Christ is somewhere on it.Paul says the "god of this age" has blinded the minds of unbelievers (2 Corinthians 4:4). He describes Satan as the spirit actively at work in "the sons of disobedience" (Ephesians 2:2). John writes that "the whole world lies in the power of the evil one" (1 John 5:19). And in 1 Corinthians 10, Paul makes the explicit connection between idol worship and demon worship, which means that since everyone worships something before coming to Christ, no one gets a pass.This isn't a fringe charismatic idea. It's the Bible's own framework for understanding the spiritual condition of the lost. And if it's true, it changes everything: how we pray, how we evangelize, and what it means to walk someone out of darkness and into the kingdom.In this episode, we examine the biblical case and ask the most important follow-up question: what should believers actually be doing about it?0:00 – Introduction4:50 – Defining Demonization8:46 – Possession vs. Oppression Spectrum15:17 – Satan's Biblical Dominion22:41 – Kingdom Transfer Scriptures37:26 – Moral Responsibility Question42:44 – Fear vs. Engagement55:01 – Deliverance at Conversion?INTRO TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY:

In this deeply honest and theologically rich episode, Heather Creekmore welcomes Jen Oshman—author, missionary, and mom of four daughters—to tackle a question many women silently struggle with: Is it good that I was born a woman? Together, they candidly explore how issues of body image, shame, and the cultural pressures of womanhood can lead to deep-seated doubts and frustration. Drawing from global and biblical perspectives, Jen Oshman shares insights gathered from years of cross-cultural ministry and studying God’s word. She addresses the vulnerabilities women face, both physically and socially, and how Western and global cultures shape our understanding of femininity. Jen Oshman unpacks what the Bible says about being female, highlighting the unique and powerful stories of women in Scripture that often get overlooked, and discusses why God’s design for women is not only intentional but also very good. Key Topics Covered Why the question, “Is it good that I was born a woman?” is more common than we realize The impact of shame, fear, and the lived realities of being female in our culture How body image struggles can be rooted in deeper frustrations about being a woman A biblical look at femininity—separating culture’s checklist from God’s truth The meaning of “helper” (Ezer) in Genesis and its empowering implications Why diversity among women in Scripture matters—and what we can learn from their stories Studying tough Old Testament laws (like menstruation) in context and seeing God’s heart of care for women Practical encouragement for women who wrestle with their purpose and God’s plan for their gender How to dig deeper into biblical womanhood with Jen’s new Lifeway Bible study, “Very Good” Connect with Jen here: https://www.jenoshman.com Grab a copy of Jen's new Bible study: "Very Good" on Amazon here.** Amazon affiliate link.

Get personalized root-cause care with Empower Functional Health.Learn more at empowerfunctionalhealth.com_____Is eating a limited diet, such as a Carnivore diet, or avoiding certain foods because they harm you unbiblical? This episode explores what Scripture actually says about food, freedom, and caring for the body. The Bible does not treat medically necessary or health-based food avoidance as sin. Instead, it emphasizes stewardship, wisdom, self-control, and honoring God with your body. While the New Testament removes ceremonial food restrictions, it does not require people to eat everything indiscriminately. Rather than condemning dietary limits, Scripture consistently calls for honoring God with your body and recognizing that something may be permitted yet still not be beneficial to you personally.IntroductionIs Plant-Based the Ideal Diet Based on Biblical Doctrine?Body as a Temple and You as a StewardBiblical Mentions of Food, Drunkards, Glutton and SinPaul and the Need of Discipline, Self-Control and the Fruit of the SpiritThoughts on CommunionRomans 14, The Weak and the StrongReal Talk: What Really Matters with Faith_____EPISODE RESOURCES - Is Plant-Based the Ideal Christian Diet- My Faith Journey - Jesus and Wellness Article - Did Jesus Eat Meat Article - Stewarding the Body as God's Temple (1 Corinthians 6:19–20, 1 Corinthians 3:16–17) - Not Everything Is Beneficial (1 Corinthians 6:12, 1 Corinthians 10:23)- What Enters the Body (Proverbs 23:20–21, Proverbs 25:16, Philippians 3:19- Acting According to Conscience (Romans 14:14–23, Romans 14:2–3 1 Corinthians 8)- Self-Control as a Spiritual Virtue (Galatians 5:22–23, 1 Corinthians 9:27- Biblical Principle of Prudence (Proverbs 27:12, Ephesians 5:29)- The Garden of Eden Diet (Genesis 1–2) - The Daniel Diet (Daniel 1 and 10) - Old Testament Dietary Laws (Leviticus 11; Deuteronomy 14)- Jesus and the Food Laws (Matthew 5:17; Mark 7:18–19, Matthew 15:11)_____WEEKLY NEWSLETTER
