Podcasts about Denomination

In episode 4 of our series on the Cartography of the Christian religion we discuss the root causes that have led to what we see looking at the current map. To do this requires starting at the beginning or genesis of the Narrative.  The story begins with Adam and progresses to Jesus who is called the last Adam. That sounds like a seamless story that defines a problem from its very start and then, over centuries of time, evolves into an entire paradigm identified as death. And whatever was the cause of death was removed by actions surrounding the role and function of Jesus the Christological individual and modeled by the Christological collective known as the body.  We now discuss questions raised by our interpretation of this evolutionary story. Did Jesus “kind of” defeat death? Was death defeated for a small percentage of the human race? What was the root cause of death to begin with?  And why does the story outline 2 possible identities starting with Adam and Abraham and evolve into a first century conflict between those identities that resulted in the coming of a new world paradigm? Why is universal God identity the outcome of the story? It's all about Christology.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend author, podcaster, and former Episcopalian priest Andrew Petiprin to talk unpack one of the biggest misconceptions about the Catholic Church: that Catholicism is simply another Christian denomination. With aplomb, charity, and with Scripture and the history books in hand, Andrew explains exactly what's wrong with thinking of Catholicism as just another denomination, why that matters, and why it's abundantly  clear from history and Scripture that the Catholic Church is unique in a sea of Christian choices.Plus, we unpack the danger of thinking of the Church as an institution, the notion of the "rules" of Catholicism, and so much more. For more from Andrew listen to his complete conversion story way back on Episode 69 of the podcast.You can find Andrew's book, Faith Unboxed at Catholic Answers or any fine bookseller.

The new pope is chosen by cardinals in a secret election held in the Sistine Chapel. The Holy See organizes the process to make sure it follows Church rules. Here is a slow English lesson about it.

Sunday, April 27, 2025 – Today, we are beginning a short series discussing the Fellowship of the Assemblies of God. This will be more of a teaching series than a preaching series, just so you are aware if you are interested in watching. I begin today by giving a short overview of the Assemblies of God’s national, international, and local organization. The reason is that it’s important for those who choose to call this their home church to understand whom they are worshipping under and submitting to. We are very transparent and open to any questions you may have regarding who we are and what we believe. After this, I will begin a study on the 16 Fundamental Truths or Tenets of our Faith. It’s essential for us to have a solid foundation of our faith, beginning with a sincere and unwavering belief as we discuss the first three tenets: The Bible is the inspired Word of God, secondly, The One True God, and then finally, for today, The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. You are strongly encouraged to worship and study along with us online or come be with us on Sundays at 10:30.

What's wrong with the current approach to discipleship? Lutheran pastor and author Zach Zehnder talks about what's wrong with the current approach to discipleship and what it's like to plant a church in a mainline denomination. Plus, Carey and Zach discuss the challenges of being an entrepreneurial pastor and how these innovative church leaders know when it's time to leave their clergy positions.

It is difficult times in the Church of England.Having previously publicly betrayed his ordination and consecration vows - the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby - has now resigned over his handling of a safeguarding matter, following the release of the Makin report.The Church of England is tearing itself apart over sexuality.There are more apostate bishops than faithful bishops in the English House of Bishops.And there is now a massive group within the Church of England called The Alliance,  representing 42% of the denomination's attendance,  basically pleading to the house of bishops to repent.William Taylor has served since 1998 as the senior pastor of St Helen's London.

What is a denomination? What is the origin of denominations? Is the idea of different church denominations biblical?

In an era where many denominations are known for their controversies and in-fighting, here is a story of a denomination that quietly and methodically demonstrates obedience to the gospel in a positive light for the world to see. Thom and Jess interview Dr. Eddie Moody, the Executive Director of The National Association of Free Will Baptists. Heed his words carefully. We can learn a lot about leadership and denominations that can make a difference. The post The Quiet Denomination: Why You Need to Know More about Free Will Baptists appeared first on Church Answers.

Did you know there are over 45,000 Christian denominations in the world? No? I didn't either, and I don't really care.But some people do. A student asked me about this last week.

Jews have been living on an emotional roller coaster. In recent weeks, we experienced a welcome "high." Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro was under serious consideration for vice president on the Democratic ticket. Then, in recent days, for many Jews, a "low" when Josh Shapiro was passed over in favor of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. Jews have a right to be disappointed. But along with that disappointment, let us realize the Shapiro possibility contains two serious lessons for American Jews. First, the purpose of an election is not to make Jews (or any other ethnic group) proud. The purpose of an election is to win.

As most things that have been created in Northern Mexico, Bacanora tends to create more questions than answers. It may have and active Denomination of Origin and there are some really awesome brands out there bringing some delicious juice, but many of the stories linked to its origins are still obscure.  In this conversation with Javier Oroz (mastermind behind @bastardosdelbacanora and @santocuviso) we tried to briefly explore Bacanora's extremely convoluted history. We hope you enjoy it!

Specifically, we're avoiding talking about "the Christ," instead focusing on the ideas of Jesus' humanity. Speculations include: as a devout Jewish man, he was likely married; he was likely born in Nazareth and not Bethlehem; and he was almost surely a stonemason and not a woodworker.Mentioned in the episode:codyumc.comSupport us:Join our Patreon community and buy us a drink at patreon.com/ravelpod for as little as $3/mo!Submit a voice memo or comment to the inbox at theravelpod@gmail.com! Take a minute to drop us a 5-star rating and a 1-2 sentence review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify!Credits:Theme Song: In Full Color by Louie Zong on Spotify and BandcampArtwork: Yarn and Ravel by Dixie Lee Henning @dixieleedrawsProduced by Stephen Henning, Josh Lieuallen, and Emily RettinghouseEditing/Audio Engineering by Stephen HenningCertified Organic benediction by Reverend Emily Rettinghouse, MDiv ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

It's Tuesday, June 4th, A.D. 2024,. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson What did Malaysian government do with Pastor Raymond Koh? The American Center for Law and Justice has issued a petition on the social media site X demanding answers from the Malaysian government on Pastor Raymond Koh's whereabouts. The petition has almost 30,000 signatures.   The petition states that “Pastor Raymond Koh has been missing for [seven] years in Malaysia [and] the Malaysian government refuses to provide answers.”  Koh ran a non-profit group working with HIV/AIDS patients, people with an addiction, and other individuals in need of help.  75-year-old pro-lifer given 2-year prison sentence Paulette Harlow is 75 years old and she is the ninth and final pro-life advocate to be sentenced for violating the Freedom of Access to Abortion Clinics Entrances Act at the Washington Surgi-Clinic in 2020.   A grandmother, and mother of six -- including four adopted children, Harlow received a 24-month sentence on May 31st from Judge Colleen Kotelly.  However, in the final analysis, God will be the Judge. Proverbs 18:5 reminds us that “It is not good to show partiality to the wicked or to overthrow the righteous in judgment.” Mexico's new pro-abortion, pro-homosexual secular president Mexico has elected its first female president. Claudia Sheinbaum won the election with 59% of the vote. Raised as a secular Jew, Sheinbaum is outspoken about her pro-abortion and pro-homosexual positions.  Mexico's Supreme Court legalized abortion last September. Since 1990, over 60 nations have liberalized their abortion laws. Only the United States, Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Poland have slowed the legalization of abortion in recent years. Sheinbaum's election makes for the 54th election of a female head of state over the last 10 years. There were nine female heads of state elected during the 1980s, and five in the 1970s.  Abortion rates are up worldwide Abortion rates are up in the U.S. and other nations around the world.    Scotland, for, example reports the number of abortions up 53% over the last decade. This is largely due to the increase access to the Kill Pill program. Abortions by the abortion pill have increased from 9,600 per year to 17,900 per year over the last decade. And home-based abortions in Scotland have doubled from 5,100 to 10,500 per year since 2020. Meanwhile, surgical abortions have decreased from 2,300 to 350 per year over the last decade. Let us all remember that “there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.” (Hebrews 4:13) India's national elections unlikely to help Christians India is conducting national elections today. As they face rising persecution at the hands of fundamentalist Hindus, India's Christians throughout the country are hoping for some respite or help from the national government.  However, current polls point to another win for the Bharatiya Janata Party. One million African Methodists walk away from denomination The Côte d'Ivoire Conference of the United Methodists, based in West Africa, has voted to leave the United Methodist Church — after the U.S.-based denomination voted to approve the ordination of pastors who live out sinful, homosexual lifestyles. The “Ivory Coast” Methodists make up about one million members, one of the largest regional church bodies in the world. Korean pastors eager to sever ties with U.S. Methodists Also, an assembly of Korean Methodist pastors have met in mid-May to discuss a severance of relationships with the U.S. United Methodist Church.  The Korean General Assembly of Methodist Churches has already announced plans to ”solidify our traditional position and Bible-centered faith for its own ministry and mission direction.” In 3 days, Americans gave $200 million to Trump's campaign Americans responded to former President Donald Trump's guilty verdict with massive fund raising for the Trump for President campaign. Eric Trump, his son, told Fox News Sunday, the campaign has raised $200 million within three days, $70 million of which came from small donors. Listen. ERIC TRUMP: “They're coming out of the woodwork and they want to support a guy that they just believe is getting bamboozled by a system. We saw it with Impeachment One. We saw it with Impeachment Two. “We see it where they weaponized every liberal [District Attorney] and [Attorney General] across the country with one intent: to take him down, to slander him, to ruin his reputation, to try and divide his family, to try and bankrupt him, to throw him in jail. And America sees through it. They know exactly what's going on.” Meanwhile, by comparison, the Biden campaign has reportedly raised $104 million since the beginning of the year. Thailand officials eager to pass homosexual faux-marriage bill Thailand's prime minister attended the Pride Festivities in celebration of sexual perversions over the weekend in Bangkok. Srettha Thavisin  pledged his government's support for the “homosexual faux-marriage” bill which was passed through the legislature by a vote of 400 to 10 back in March.   Sadly, Thailand legalized abortion in 2019, and extended the legalization of abortion to the 20th week of the child's life in 2022.   Plus, Thailand has long been known as the “global capital” of prostitution and the child sex trade. Thailand will join Taiwan as the only two Asian nations embracing homosexual faux-marriage. China landed spacecraft on far side of moon In the beginning, God created the Heaven and the Earth.   Six thousand years later, China has landed a spacecraft on the far side of the moon — the only nation to have accomplished the feat so far. The Chinese space program hopes to collect rocks for analysis on the lunar south pole.  Worldview listeners in Ohio and Pennsylvania weigh in In response to my invitation for listeners to write me at Adam@TheWorldview.com about what our newscast means to them, Connie in Blanchester, Ohio wrote, “I depend on your broadcast to supply me with truthful news.

When does honest and earnest transparency tip into oversharing and misplaced attention seeking? (the podcasters ask, fully acknowledging what irony this invites...) What is gossip actually? How can information shared amongst a community be helpful for reinforcing good boundaries and expectations without tipping into harmful rumor-mongering? Mentioned in the episode:Stephen's GoodreadsNothing much happens: bedtime stories to help you sleep PodcastRaging with Compassion by John SwintonSupport us:Join our Patreon community and buy us a drink at patreon.com/ravelpod for as little as $3/mo!Submit a voice memo or comment to the inbox at theravelpod@gmail.com! Take a minute to drop us a 5-star rating and a 1-2 sentence review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify!Credits:Theme Song: In Full Color by Louie Zong on Spotify and BandcampArtwork: Yarn and Ravel by Dixie Lee Henning @dixieleedrawsProduced by Stephen Henning, Josh Lieuallen, and Emily RettinghouseEditing/Audio Engineering by Stephen HenningCertified Organic benediction by Reverend Emily Rettinghouse, MDiv ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

In this episode, season 4 continues with the series on Denominations. This episode goes into the Adventist movement. We summarize its history, sources of authority, structure, and position on the sacraments/ordinances and conclude with its distinctive emphasis and divergences. See the landing page for sources/further reading. NOTE: The section on the SDA is not exhaustive by any stretch of the imagination on doctrines and practices of concern. Instead, it is a broad sweep. Other resources should be considered, remembering that this Denomination series is not focused on full exposés on individual groups. Nor does this episode reflect all of my personal thoughts and concerns about the group in question, as I have tried to keep the series neutral.    Landing page: https://christisthecure.org/2024/01/25/denominations-9-adventists/    Christ is the Cure is Subscriber Supported.
