In this week's episode, Pastor Jared celebrates the record-breaking Easter weekend, noting the high attendance and many coming to faith. He distinguishes between believing in Jesus and believing on Him, which requires deeper trust and reliance for salvation. All while highlighting the upcoming baptism weekend as a crucial next step for new believers and stresses the importance of viewing the church as an active movement rather than just a gathering.-----------------------------RESOURCES:More Than A Carpenter by Josh McDowell - https://a.co/d/ck0qPdz-----------------------------STAY CONNECTED:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/onelifeaz.church/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/onelifeaz.church/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@onelifeaz.church

I've been studying the four Gospels as of late and have found it incredulous that the Jews would not accept Jesus as the Messiah. I just finished Josh McDowell's book, More than a Carpenter. If you have not read it, you are truly missing out. It is a must read! Josh was an agonistic/atheist and was one of those of us who tried to disprove the Bible. He went the extra mile and after extensive research including going abroad to study ended up devoting his life to Christ . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2025/04/texas-awash-in-silver-dollars-2/

Today, we sit down with Dr. Sean McDowell, professor, apologist, and author, to discuss all things Holy Week. We talk about the proof of the existence of Jesus but also refute the claim that Jesus wasn't crucified. We also talk about whether or not Christians should be celebrating Passover and other Jewish holidays as well as the ongoing debate over whether Easter is actually pagan in nature. Dr. McDowell also answers some apologetics questions for us and gives some advice on how to look for our own spiritual blind spots in our walks with God.

There is no other religion that claims to have a risen savior; Jesus is the only qualified Savior because he conquered death. We worship a risen Savior who gives us victory over death. I wonder if you could articulate why you believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Josh McDowell's book, Evidence for the Resurrection[1], goes into this in great detail. Here are some of the facts that prove the resurrection: #1: The broken Roman seal Because the religious leaders were afraid the disciples would steal the body and claim Jesus was risen, they asked Pilate to put the seal of the Roman Empire on the tomb. The consequences of breaking that seal would give pause to anyone who might try to steal the body, because that would have been a crime punishable by death. The disciples were not a courageous body of men at this time. They were hiding from authorities after fleeing from the Garden of Gethsemane. There's no way they would have tried to steal Jesus' body, and they certainly would have been too frightened to break the Roman seal. #2: The large stone was moved All the Gospel writers mention the huge stone in front of the tomb had been moved. John said it was removed from the entrance. Luke and Mark say it was rolled away from the tomb; Matthew records an angel from heaven came down and rolled back the stone. This stone weighed one and a half to two tons, so it would take several very strong men to roll it even a few inches. McDowell writes, “Now, I ask you, if the disciples had wanted to come in, tiptoe around the sleeping guards, and then roll the stone over and steal Jesus' body, how could they have done that without the guards' awareness?” #3: The behavior of the disciples Consider once the disciples knew Jesus was raised from the dead, and they were empowered by the Holy Spirit, they didn't go to some faraway place to preach the gospel. They went right back to Jerusalem, where, if what they were teaching was false, it would be most evident. That would be the last place they'd want to go if they had not seen the risen Christ and knew the tomb was empty. They preached the gospel of the resurrected Christ in Jerusalem, and there was no doubt Jesus had risen. I encourage you to meditate on the resurrection of Jesus Christ, see that empty tomb, and celebrate the risen Savior. --- [1] Mcdowell, J., & Mcdowell, S. (2008).

Lisa and I continue our series on the sins of the tongue, looking today at excessive words. I consider the limits of war and the value of human life. We examine how Joseph is a type of Christ, how Abraham should have asked God before making a treaty with the Philistines. Finally, the folly of our hunger for fame.

Teacher: Adam BarnettThe elder, To my dear friend Gaius, whom I love in the truth.Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. It gave me great joy when some believers came and testified about your faithfulness to the truth, telling how you continue to walk in it. I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers and sisters, even though they are strangers to you. They have told the church about your love. Please send them on their way in a manner that honors God. It was for the sake of the Name that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans. We ought therefore to show hospitality to such people so that we may work together for the truth.I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us. So when I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, spreading malicious nonsense about us. Not satisfied with that, he even refuses to welcome other believers. He also stops those who want to do so and puts them out of the church. Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God. Demetrius is well spoken of by everyone—and even by the truth itself. We also speak well of him, and you know that our testimony is true.I have much to write you, but I do not want to do so with pen and ink. I hope to see you soon, and we will talk face to face. Peace to you. The friends here send their greetings. Greet the friends there by name. – 3 John 1:1-15 “3 John is a treasure that provides a glimpse into early church dynamics, provides a much-needed exhortation to Christians today, and makes a significant theological claim about where the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ is to be found.” – Karen Jobes1 - Walk in the truth.“If we were on trial for being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict us?” - Josh McDowell 2 - Practice hospitality.When we extend hospitality, we make our faith visible. 3 - Imitate good.Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God. – 3 John 1:11Who has influence in my life, and is their example one I should imitate?

Let's talk sharing faith, allowing kids to question theirs, and learn about website Karl runs that you've never heard of! When Karl was in junior high, his dad pulled him out of school to attend a life-changing Josh McDowell conference.

In this episode, Karl reflects on that powerful experience and shares how we, as ministry leaders, can encourage kids to explore their faith, ask hard questions, and make their faith their own.Plus, Karl shares a poem from his high school Philosophy class that earned him a big fat "F" — a grade he's still proud of today!And finally, Yosemite Summit 2025 is live!

Best of Priority Talk from 2012 with guests Josh McDowell and Andy Andrews.

In this conversation, Cindy shares her transformative journey from a childhood marked by trauma to becoming the founder of Village of Hope, a ministry dedicated to helping orphans in Africa. She discusses the importance of integrity in leadership, her deep connection to Africa, and the challenges she faced, including a brain tumor. Cindy emphasizes the impact of her work on the lives of children and the importance of trusting others in ministry. Cindy Cunningham's (Director and Founder of Village of Hope Uganda) life today can be summed up in one statement, “For such a time as this”.  Growing up in a dysfunctional, alcoholic and physical abusive family, she found the Lord at the age of 16. At the age of 18 Cindy gave her life to God's calling to do whatever and go wherever He wanted her to serve.  Immediately after attending Welch Christian College, she spent nearly 40 years ministering to men, women & children through Youth For Christ, Josh McDowell ministries, ALARM (African Leadership and Reconciliation Ministries.    Her heart has always been drawn to children and youth, especially those who have come from broken and wounded families. But her real passion was to one day minister in Africa. God made that dream come true in 2006 when she was working for African Leadership And Reconciliation Ministry. She had the opportunity to see the real life and heart ache of people in Kenya, Congo, Rwanda, Sudan and Uganda.

Perhaps two of the biggest objections you hear against God's existence are slavery and hell. Why would God, a loving God, allow such things? This week we continue our conversation with apologist with Josh McDowell Ministries, Matthew Tingblad, co-author with Josh McDowell of Why Did God Do That? Discovering God's Goodness in the Hard Passages of Scripture. Matthew will share with us his insights about these difficult objections and encourage us to focus on God's holiness and goodness toward us in Christ Jesus. Matthew Tingblad is a writer and speaker holding a Master of Divinity from Talbot School of Theology. Matthew has a passion to grow and strengthen the church with a firm grounding for the Christian faith. With wisdom and sensitivity, he offers a unique approach to tough biblical questions and the deeply felt needs of teenagers, college students, and young professionals today by integrating theology and philosophy into apologetics.  Matthew has led thousands of individuals to grow in a rock-solid conviction that God is real, God is good, and God is worth it.Related Links: Access additional Watchman Fellowship resources related to this week's podcast: Watchman Fellowship 4-page Profile on Annihilationism by Daniel Ray: www.watchman.org/Annihilationism Watchman Fellowship 4-page Profile on Atheism by Dr. Robert M.

Why? We often have many "Why?" questions when it comes to God and our relationship with Him. Why would God allow evil or why would God flood the earth? God does not tell us everything we would like to know, but He has revealed to us everything we need to know, including the fact that we can trust Him with our lives and that He is ultimately good. That is the premise for the book, Why Would God Do That? Discovering God's Goodness in the Hard Passages of Scripture, written by our guest this week and next on the profile, apologist with Josh McDowell Ministries, Matthew Tingblad. Matthew Tingblad is a writer and speaker holding a Master of Divinity from Talbot School of Theology.

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1=======================================================================DECIDETE HOYDevoción Matutina para Jóvenes 2024Narrado por: Daniel RamosDesde: Connecticut, Estados Unidos===================|| www.drministries.org ||===================07 DE OCTUBRE«¡Dígame que hay algo más!»«Por eso el hombre dejará a su padre y a su madre, y se unirá a su mujer, y serán un solo ser» (Génesis 2: 24, RVC). Una joven universitaria contactó al psicólogo Josh McDowell por teléfono y le confesó: «Durante las últimas cinco noches, he ido a la cama con cinco hombres diferentes. Me he preguntado: "¿Es esto todo lo que hay? ¿Se reduce simplemente al sexo?"». Luego, entre sollozos, se tomó un momento para recuperar la calma y la compostura, y añadió: «Señor McDowell, por favor, dígame que existe algo más». El psicólogo respondió: «De hecho, hay algo más: se llama intimidad». La intimidad es una relación personal cercana, familiar y afectuosa con otra persona. Se trata de un estado de conexión y cercanía, tanto emocional como física. La intimidad se manifiesta de diversas formas, como el contacto físico, las experiencias compartidas y la comunicación abierta. Es un aspecto fundamental en las relaciones humanas, ya que nos permite sentirnos conectados con los demás, compartir nuestros pensamientos y sentimientos más profundos, y experimentar amor y apoyo. La intimidad puede proporcionar una inmensa alegría y satisfacción, al tiempo que nos ayuda a experimentar una sensación de plenitud en la vida. Dios creó al hombre y a la mujer para que se complementaran y se amaran mutuamente en el sagrado vínculo del matrimonio. El sexo es una expresión de esa intimidad, pero no es lo único ni lo más importante. La intimidad también implica respeto, confianza, fidelidad y compromiso, y requiere tiempo, esfuerzo y comunicación. No se trata solo de satisfacer nuestros deseos, sino de honrar a Dios y a nuestra pareja. Si quieres experimentar la verdadera intimidad, debes seguir el plan de Dios para tu vida. Respeta tu cuerpo y el de los demás como templos del Espíritu Santo y espera el momento adecuado para entregar tu sexualidad a la persona que Dios te ayudó a escoger. Así podrás disfrutar de la intimidad plena bajo la bendición del Cielo. Dios tiene un propósito para tu vida y para tus relaciones, no te conformes con menos de lo que él te ofrece. ¿Cómo puedes seguir el plan de Dios para tu vida y tus relaciones? ¿Qué desafíos o tentaciones enfrentas en este sentido? Ora a Dios y pídele que te guíe y te ayude a vivir la intimidad según su voluntad y su diseño.
