Sam and Ryan Burge take a deep dive into the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), unpacking the denomination's unique growth patterns, size distribution, and robust recordkeeping. They explore surprising statistics on membership trends, baptisms, and church finances—revealing why some PCA congregations thrive while others remain stagnant. The co-hosts highlight key takeaways for understanding both the strengths and challenges of one of America's most data-rich evangelical denominations. The post The Burge Report: The Biggest Little Denomination: The Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) appeared first on Church Answers.
Blake sits down with JJ and Tim to discuss what it means that we are a ‘christian church' and where we come from. We dive into the roots of our local church history try to give a broad overview of the Stone-Campbell Restoration Movement.

Despite their differences, which are mainly academic, the mainstream churches share more than a common set of core doctrines. They all in practice represent a model of church which all deny represents the true meaning of church. Every mainstream church has buildings where people sit in pews or chairs listening to a career pastor or priest. Dominion Rights Church is not a church in the conventional sense, we are not what the mainstream churches mean by “church”. We are a church in the sense modelled by Jesus. Our church is ministry and missions. Think of us as a church for the mature Christian, a Christian that has graduated from the academy of the conventional faiths.
In a new memoir, Yusuf Islam, also known as the singer-songwriter Cat Stevens, writes about how converted his faith after a near-death experience. Listeners call in to share what has prompted them to change their faith.
BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW Week 1 – The Foundation of Truth A True Story: In 1999, NASA lost a $125 million Mars Climate Orbiter. Why? One team used the metric system, another used English measurements. The spacecraft was perfectly built, but it was operating on the wrong standard. A tiny difference in “what seemed right” to one team ended in destruction and destroyed the mission. The lesson? Without the right standard, even the smartest people end up in failure. What is a worldview? (Lens → shapes beliefs, decisions, priorities). A WORLDVIEW is the LENS YOU SEE LIFE THROUGH Here's how it works: Beliefs → Decisions → Outcomes If you don't like your outcomes, look at your decisions. If you don't like your decisions, examine your beliefs. If your beliefs are not anchored in God's truth, they will mislead you. Christian vs. Biblical Worldview (tradition vs. Scripture). Definition: CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW: A set of beliefs held by those who profess to be Christian—sometimes shaped by culture, tradition, politics, or personal preference rather than God's Word. BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW: Seeing and interpreting all of life—morality, relationships, purpose, money, politics, work, suffering, eternity—through the lens of Scripture. God's Word defines truth, not opinion, not society, not feelings. A CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW may be SHAPED BY TRADITION, DENOMINATION, OR CULTURE. A BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW is ROOTED IN GOD'S WORD. [JESUS PRAYS…] John 17:17 (NLT) Make them holy by your truth; teach them your word, which is truth. BIG IDEA: Everyone has a worldview—it's the lens you see life through. But only a BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW is built on God's unchanging truth. Why it matters (Proverbs 14:12 — “seems right” leads to destruction). Foundational Text: Proverbs 14:12 (NLT) – “There is a path before each person that seems right, but it ends in death.” Proverbs 14:12 warns: What “SEEMS RIGHT” can STILL LEAD TO DEATH. Psalm 18:30 “This God—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.” Psalm 18:30 says God's Word is PERFECT and PROVES TRUE. God's Word is perfect, trustworthy, proven. God's Word is the perfect “flight manual” for life. 2 Timothy 3:16–17 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. 17 God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work. ACTION STEPS: Believe God's Word is FINAL AUTHORITY. Commit to DAILY BIBLE READING. Test EVERY DECISION AGAINST SCRIPTURE. Ask: “AM I LIVING BY TRUTH, or BY WHAT SEEMS RIGHT?” Invitation (Romans 10:9–10): Build your life on Jesus—the Living Word.

In this episode of Mere Fidelity, Derek Rishmawy, Alastair Roberts, Brad East, and James Wood engage in a deep conversation about the complexities of inhabiting and leaving religious traditions. They explore the implications of a recent theological shift by Matthew Barrett from Baptist to Anglican, discussing the personal and theological dimensions of such transitions. The conversation delves into the nature of tradition, the challenges of maintaining ecclesial identity, and the virtues of leaving a tradition with grace and gratitude. The hosts emphasize the importance of honoring those who have shaped their faith journeys while navigating the intricacies of theological retrieval and the fragility of denominational identities in contemporary Christianity.

This podcast is recorded live on Tuesday nights. Pastor Keith Foskey and his wife Jennifer answer bible questions sent in to http://www.keithfoskey.com Questions and TimestampsIs the belief in Mary's sinlessness from conception heretical, given that it's not taught in Scripture? 26:43Is belief in angels necessary for salvation, or can someone be saved while rejecting their existence? 31:50How should we respond when someone says, “What denomination was Jesus?” and rejects theology/doctrine altogether? 37:55Can we justify singing songs from Bethel, Hillsong, or Elevation in church if the lyrics are sound, even if the source is questionable—similar to how we sing older hymns with theological baggage? 48:02What are your thoughts on Christian music in genres like rock, metal, and hip-hop, as long as the content is sound and glorifies God? 53:47Should women have Bible studies apart from men, and is it wrong for them to discuss theology (e.g., millennial views)? 58:07Should women in the congregation be allowed to vote? Would this violate their husband's headship? 1:03:10What are your thoughts on churches that ordain women as pastors, especially if the teaching is otherwise sound and the community is strong?

Do they need to be baptized again? 1:19:48What advice would you give to someone struggling with intrusive thoughts, sensitive conscience, and lack of joy in the Christian walk? 1:22:29How do you forgive a family member who continues in sin? Is it biblical to set boundaries in such relationships? 1:25:00Is it ever okay to lie to protect life, such as giving false info in warfare? 1:31:31Should para-church ministries (like recovery groups) call themselves a “church” if they function like one with services and teaching but deny being a church? 1:36:00How should we answer concerns that modern manuscripts undermine the doctrine of preservation, especially from TR-only advocates? 1:41:00What do you think of the ongoing Epstein situation from a Christian perspective, especially when justice seems ignored? 1:48:00SEC football allegiance: What team do you root for, and how do you justify it biblically if it's the Gators?

So the ebike is a brick in the back of my Rav4, but it still works like a normal bike, so let's keep going! But a sudden realization may provide the solution to unlock all the battery goodness, just as another stunning discovery makes me realize, this trip's Plan B was all meant to be. Lake Ontario 2025 - Part 3 Hotel pack-up & quick diagnosis Morning in Oswego, NY. Realizes the motor cut-off is just a loose brake-lever magnet. Simple electrical/duct-tape fix brings the e-bike back to life. Route planning & launch Scraps the closed Cape Vincent ferry idea decides to drive the east shore of Lake Ontario, scouting state parks and quieter wildlife areas instead of sticking to busy parks. Lake-side stops Quick visit to Black Pond Wildlife Management Area (too restricted for bikes). Heads north to Westcott Beach State Park for a short beach walk, photos, and a quick battery test run. Drive to Canada Long detour to the Thousand Islands bridge (the only open crossing) because the south-end Wolf Island ferry is closed. Smooth Canadian customs stop; grabs ice cream and activates a Canadian eSIM for data. Kingston → Wolf Island ferry Misses the boat by two cars; 80-minute wait becomes a snack-and-people-watch session. Free ferry ride over; hotel is literally a block from the dock. Marysville check-in Rustic ground-floor room, lake view, no A/C needed. Drops bags, scopes dinner options (hotel café). Evening e-bike shake-down 14-mile out-and-back along Route 95 to the shuttered U.S. ferry dock on the south tip. Cruises at ~20 mph, marvels at wind turbines, farmland scenery, and micro-climates. Confirms minimal battery draw and re-affirms “twice the speed, half the effort” mantra. Wrap-up reflections Happy the brake glitch happened early—it forced a car assist and avoided being stranded. Wolf Island deemed a stellar, low-traffic cycling spot; sets intentions for next day's ride and keeps an eye on looming Toronto weather. Statistics Miles biked 15 Closed ferry terminals visited 2 Open ferry terminals visited 2 Missed ferries 1 Denomination of Canadian currency that may or may not smell like maple syrup unless the bartender was trolling me 50 Flats 0
In today's episode of the Center for Baptist Leadership podcast, William Wolfe sits down with Pastor Michael Clary to discuss the four groups within the SBC: the Platform, which controls the agenda; the Reformers, advocating for transparency and reform; the Loyalists, aspiring to join the Platform; and the Normies, ordinary pastors unaware of internal issues. Michael Clary is the Lead Pastor of Christ the King Church in Cincinnati, OH, co-founder of King's Domain ministries, and author of God's Good Design: A Biblical, Theological, and Practical Guide to Human Sexuality. He graduated from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in 2008 with a Master of Divinity.

Welcome to the Inverted Orthodoxy Podcast! We're Blake, Kyle, and Doug the pastors from Living Springs, here to take you on a weekly adventure through the twists and turns of faith. Got questions? We've got answers, and sometimes more questions! This week the pastors answered the following questions: 1. Last week you spoke about the 44003 denominations of Christianity, how many are from the line of Catholics?2.What are your guys's favourite worship song that we used to do or still do today? And why is it your favourite?3.In addition to trying to live my life faithfully and praying and reading the Bible with my son, how can I better encourage his faith? He is still not even a teenager yet and claims he doesn't believe in God. I encourage his questions and don't force my faith on him but it still hurts my heart to hear him have such blatant disregard for God and faith in general. Any additional suggestions on how to better reveal Christ to him? I pray that his heart will be soft and open to God but I still wish there were more tangible things I could do.4. In relation to Blake's sermon on greed in February and his references to tithing, it made me wonder - if someone is tithing the traditional 10% whether it should be on gross or net income? I would imagine most people would do it on net income, but wouldn't that mean that our "first fruits" are going to the government and not God? Or, does that not matter since that is not money we have any control over and "first fruits" would be more in relation to what we do with the funds we actually receive or control? Not looking to be dogmatic on it, just curious about what you guys would have to say about it.Do you have a question you've been wanting answered? Head on over to our website www.invertedorthodoxy.com to submit a question. You can find us on Wednesdays on Youtube, or wherever you subscribe to podcasts.

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.

The Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast: Lead Like Never Before
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.
In this episode, let's discuss how we should approach the different sects and denominations of Christianity. Is one of them right? Are any of them right? How should approach Christianity based on there being so many denominations?

WHO'S YOUR DADDY??? Ravel is back from the unplanned break and ready to gooooo! We're bringing you an episode that was, admittedly, recorded months ago, but it is no less fun. We're getting into the reading of the Hebrew word "ABBA" as we try to figure out where the heck this whole "daddy" business started as it's used to refer to God.(FACT CHECK: Stephen goes the entire episode talking about the "ABBA, Father" verse as if Jesus was the one teaching it, while it was in fact, Paul in Romans 8:15.)Mentioned in the episode:Breath by James NestorRomans 8:15 - Abba, FatherMatthew 6:9-13 - The Lords PrayerMatthew 6:6 - Pray in your closet Matthew 7:9-12 - Who would give their child a serpent?JELLY B Drinkable Konjac snackAdam's Return by Richard RohrSupport 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!

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.
