In this conversation, Scot McKnight explores the deconstruction movement happening in the church today. Scot argues that this deconstruction is a prophetic work of the Spirit, calling the church back to a more faithful following of Jesus. Scot shares his own personal journey of shedding aspects of his fundamentalist upbringing to find a more Jesus-centered faith. He unpacks how the "I Am" statements of Jesus in the Gospel of John are key for deconstructors who are seeking to rediscover the true center of Christianity. We also discuss the surprising research showing that the majority of those going through deconstruction are not abandoning their faith, but rather searching for a church that better reflects the teachings and person of Jesus. Scot offers wisdom on navigating disagreements and maintaining unity amidst this transformative movement. If you or someone you know is wrestling with doubts and disillusionment with the institutional church, this conversation offers hope and guidance for finding your way back to the heart of the gospel. Scot McKnight (PhD, University of Nottingham) is a world-renowned speaker, writer, professor, and equipper of the Church. He is a recognized authority on the historical Jesus, early Christianity, and the New Testament. His books have been translated into Chinese, Korean, Russian, and Portuguese. He is the author of The Jesus Creed, The Blue Parakeet, The King Jesus Gospel, Revelation for the Rest of Us, numerous commentaries, and is now writing a sixteen-volume series of reflections called The Everyday Bible Study.Scot and Tommy's Book:Invisible JesusJoin Our Patreon for Early Access and More: PatreonConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@allnations.usGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

Episode 276: Quick Chat: The Power of "I AM" Statements - How to Shift EverythingWelcome to the LYS podcast. Today is a Quick Chat - 1 inspirational idea in 15 minutes or less. We are talking about I AM Statements and being creators. (insert applause reel)The other day I was listening to Oprah's Super Soul podcast and her interview with pastor Joel Osteen a pastor from Houston, TX that is a very popular up and coming pastor. It aired on Sept 20 2022 if you want to catch it.They were talking about how you become what you believe. And, what we believe is what we tell ourselves - so the whole show was about the power of the statement “I AM” And of course, this is the same thing as…..what story am I telling myself about myself. Today we're talking about I AM statements, stay tuned and let's reprogram any mean lingering voices.People - IT COMES DOWN TO THE SIMPLE THINGS.My son and I think about the world differently. He tries to unwind the mysteries of the universe. The other day he was incredibly excited because he found a scientific video showing how eternal life could happen scientifically. He showed it to all of us - thrilled to have found something that made sense to him, but it wasn't striking home for me. I thought about our different approaches to life. As we've discussed things over the past year, I've realized that complication drives him, but for me when I am trying to learn or comprehend or progress, I love simple. I have found that in my religion, in my way of being, in my growth patterns I love simple tools or simple concepts to focus on..For example. Instead of looking at the entire doctrinal cannon of my church and feeling frustrated that I'm not good at all of it. I love just working on love. Sometimes I'm good at it and sometimes I'm not, but I know if I get that down or even make progress on it, that it's one of the things God tells us is most important. And, love really bleeds into everything, forgiveness, healthy self-love, charity, service, etc. So there is plenty to do, but instead of living in overwhelm I work on love.So, I mention this because the “I AM” statements are such a simple way to realize how you are setting the tone for your life.It starts when you wake up in the morning. Start with gratitude - I am grateful for…..there is always something - hot water, a warm bed, health, a good friend, my dog, a great sweater, my kids…… Train yourself. Open your eyes and say thank you or I've got this, or I AM confident, I am creative, I am disciplined, I am focused.What is the difference in the start of your day if you start with: I'm fat, I'm not attractive, I'm unlucky, I'm a bad parent, I'm not enough, I'm so tired, I'm not worthy….vs. I'm grateful, I'm all over this, I'm excited to see what happens today, I'm making this a great day, I am going to have some great interactions today. I'm getting healthier everyday.For me - those two create completely different days! Completely different.Paster Joel say, “Whatever follows “I Am” will come looking for you.” - What do you think of that idea? If you get to choose what chases you down in the world - well, then I'm inspired to put some good things out there because that's what I want chasing me. Your life is how you see it - that is a fact. So talk a second and thing about what follows “I AM” for you?If you want to know where you'll be in 5 years, stop and pay attention to what follows “I AM” in your own mind….So let's talk about how we shift these….You don't have to go to the extreme when changing these. Oprah shared an example of a day she was really tired. As she...

I'd love to hear from you! When Courtney was in her early twenties, she was in a church membership class, where the gospel was being explained and she kept raising her hand, saying, "I chose God.

Megan Donahue grew up in a Mormon family whose roots reach all the way back to the founding of Mormonism. Though she sincerely believed as a child, she was discouraged from thoroughly investigating what she had been taught. Eventually, Megan's beliefs unraveled as she grappled with long-held questions and the burden of works-based religion. Through the mess of doubt, she stepped away from everything she had ever known and asked God to show her the truth. She joins us this week to tell her story of leaving Mormonism and learning to trust Christ.    Who Is Jesus?: A Bible Study on the “I AM” Statements of Christ LifeChange Bible Study Series by The Navigators  Strong Women Podcast Episode 19.

Without a mind that's shaped by God's Word, we'll struggle to champion the truth, beauty, and goodness of God's Kingdom in this time and place. To address this problem, Michael Craven, Vice President of Equipping and Mobilization at the Colson Center has written a brand-new, free e-book called The Christian Mind: Its Necessity to Christian Relevance and Renewal. It's a primer on developing a thoroughly Christian mind for the sake of the Kingdom. If you want a more robust faith that actually shapes how you live in the world today, or if you're wondering why cultivating a Christian mind really matters, you should read this book.

At this event, Alisa Childers and Tim Barrnett will help us understand what deconstruction really is, why it's influencing so many, and how the Church can help those who are wrestling with their faith. You'll be equipped with practical tools to counter the influence of deconstruction and pursue those who are veering toward it.

Welcome back to Leading and Loving Life with Jesus! Today, we're diving into Day 18 of the empowering devotional series, "100 Days of Believing Bigger" by Marshawn Evans Daniels, shared by McCall Dwyer. Join us as we explore the theme of "Authorized to Impact" and the profound truth of the authority we have been given as followers of Christ.Day 18 reminds us of the authority that Jesus taught with, a divine authority given to Him by God. As His followers, we have also been granted this same authority to impact the world around us. To effectively wield this authority, we must spend time with God, listen to the Holy Spirit, and live boldly as representatives of Christ's kingdom.Take a moment to reflect on the authority you have been given as a follower of Christ. Consider how you can use this authority to make a positive impact in your sphere of influence. How does prioritizing God's approval over man's approval shift your perspective and priorities? As we conclude Day 18 of "100 Days of Believing Bigger," let's remember that our authority comes from God and our primary focus should be on advancing His kingdom. May we boldly step into the calling and purpose God has placed on our lives, knowing that His approval is all we need. Remember, you are here on purpose because you have a purpose, and God has something amazing in store for you.Thank you for joining us today on Leading and Loving Life with Jesus. Stay tuned for more empowering episodes as we continue to journey together in faith and purpose.

When it comes to control, we often tend to fell like we have it all under control or like everything is spinning out of control. Our verse this month tells us neither is true. Jesus is the one who is in control. On todays episode our guest, Joanna Kimbrel, shares just how easy it is for us to live under the illusion of our self control, asking Natalie if she's been reading her journal. And she also shares specific times when she felt like everything feels out of control. Joanna tells us why we would want to give Jesus the reigns of our lives and she gives us practical advice for how we can make that happen. This month's memory verse: "He is before all things, and in him all things hold together" — Colossians 1:17Today's Dwell guest: Joanna Kimbrel is a Bible teacher, a writer, and the coordinator of women's initiatives for The Gospel Coalition.
