In this thought-provoking episode of the Supernatural Junkies podcast, join Dr. Dozier, Dr. Kevin, Dr. Dennis, and Dr. O alongside special guest Dr. Daniel Bernard as they dive deep into the pressing concerns facing the American Church today. The conversation jolts the worrisome trend of faith being reduced to religious spectatorship and the failure to cultivate disciples as commanded by Jesus himself. Dr. Bernard shares compelling stories from his 26-year long ministry journey and his book "The Proven Plan". The conversation also includes his personal testament to the power of faith and prayer, demonstrating how discipleship and its true essence can lead to miracles, personal growth, and societal transformations. The episode revolves around critical flaws and shortcomings in the modern American Church, particularly how discipleship is often sidelined. It underscores the urgent need for a drastic shift in focus, from a commercially-driven model to returning to the discipleship-based model of faith rooted in the teachings of Jesus. In this enlightening conversation, emphasis is laid upon the importance of disciples embracing God's teachings and applying them in their lives, instead of simply being church members. The narrative concludes with a plea for the Church to regain its primary role as a spiritual mentor, thereby effectuating profound change within itself and the world. Join us for an intriguing and profound discussion on the significance of true discipleship, the need for a preferential shift within the church, the power of faith, and an adoptive model designed to positively impact society. Let's explore how we can make Christianity 'tasty' again! About our Guest Dr. Daniel Bernard: Daniel  Bernard was born in Clearwater, Florida, on July 4, 1956.

When I heard Jeff's story and saw what he was doing to build the Kingdom of God, I knew I had to get him on the show. You'll also be inspired by Jeff's story and boldness to share your testimony and the good news of Jesus Christ as you're going about their business.Jeff Jerina is a Christian author, speaker, evangelist, entrepreneur, and founder of MenUnplugged.net, a ministry focused on discipling men and their families. As host of the Men Unplugged podcast and the author of several books, including Cut Through the Noise and Faith Without Fear, he's helping thousands around the world IGNITE their FAITH and RECHARGE their LIFE.He has worked in upper management in the corporate sector and served as president of a non-profit sports ministry until he launched an entrepreneurial career as a small business owner. With an undergraduate degree in business and a Master's from Liberty Theological Seminary, Jeff has a passion for helping others come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ and helping live God's ultimate purpose for their life.GOLD NUGGETS:Obsessing over “I don't look good enough” – body dysmorphic disorderTrying to get the physical fix for a spiritual problemIt doesn't matter if your testimony is a radical story or not. It's still important and you still need to share it.You have a magnetic force that will either attract or repel people based on what you act and talk.The hazards of misdirecting shame and guilt, condemnation and unforgiveness on others and even on God…and on yourself. See Romans 8:1 instead: NO condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.Sleep paralysis and breakthroughExposing the lies you have been believing is part of your testimony, part of your healing, and part of sharing the glory of God.Focus on the Lord and remove distractions, but fill the gap with more of the Lord…not another distraction.Be still and know that He is God – when Jeff stopped striving is when his business and life began to turn around.Being in rest, or taking a time out, gives you more clarity and a better game plan to go forward.Overcoming the initial fear of starting a business that you have no idea how to start.The path in your mind may not be clear, but once you get past the rough bits you'll realize the path isn't as bad as you imagined it to be.LINKS:– Check out Jeff's books and resources: http://Jeffjerina.com– Listen to the Men Unplugged podcast: https://www.menunplugged.net/podcastTake our FREE Business Assessment:SpiritCenteredBusiness.com– Join the Activation Ekklesia for Business: http://SpiritCenteredBusiness.com/activation– Spiritual Business Coaching: https://SpiritCenteredBusiness.com/coaching– Join the SCB Tribe: http://facebook.com/groups/scbtribeBe sure to answer the membership questions so we know you're legit!

Some call me Dr. Ashley Goad, but most simply know me as Ashley. Raised in High Point, North Carolina, I grew up attending Springfield Friends Meeting, the Quaker church my great-great-great-great grandparents planted in 1773. If you spend more than 5 minutes with me, I'll likely work three things into the conversation: Jesus, Mission, and Quakers!I graduated from Appalachian State University in 2001 with a BS in Political Science, and then went on to Liberty Theological Seminary to earn a Masters of Divinity. In 2016, with a dissertation entitled, “Mind the Gap: Navigating the Pitfalls of Cross-Cultural Partnership,” I completed a Doctor of Ministry in Leadership and Global Perspective at George Fox Evangelical Seminary. While I was recorded (“ordained”) as a Quaker pastor in North Carolina, I am now officially “on loan” to the Louisiana Conference of the United Methodist Church. In church lingo, this designation is “Other Fellowship. My theology is sometimes very confused, though, as I have served at Pine Hill Friends Meeting (NC), ChristChurch Presbyterian (TX), and Herndon UMC (VA)!Haiti is my second home, and mission is where my heart is. Since 2009, I have logged over 40 trips to Haiti, most in service with Living Waters for the World and Solar Under the Sun, partnering ministries who seek to bring solar-powered clean water systems to communities in need. While in the Port-Au-Prince, Haiti airport in 2013, I met the team from First United Methodist Church in Shreveport. The church had begun to vision what a global mission ministry would look like, and for me, this was a dream job. I joined the FUMC staff on August 1, 2013, and have not stopped traveling the world since. With guidance and prayer from the Global Mission ministry leadership team, First UMC has created partnerships in Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Romania, Czech Republic, Uganda, and Costa Rica, while continuing their work in my beloved Haiti.The biggest celebration in my life came on January 31, 2020, when I married Christopher Harbuck! We have a sweet black lab named Molly. I am also “mom” to Mackenson, who lives in Haiti, and Chris has two children, Palmer & Kit.Music by: Irene & the SleepersLogo by: Jill EllisWebsite: brokenbanquetpodcast.comContact Us: brokenbanquetpodcast@gmail.com

Today we have a special show for you. Christmas is in a few days, and we thought what a great way to celebrate by bringing someone on who specializes in Israel and leads trips or pilgrimages through the Holy Land and talk about the little town of Bethlehem. I invited my friend Brain Haynes on the show today to help me unpack some of the really neat aspects of Bethlehem and the importance of why God chose this location for the Prince of Peace, God's One and Only Son, to be born here. Brian Haynes serves as lead pastor of Bay Area Church and Christian School in League City, Texas. He graduated from Baylor University, Southwestern Seminary, and Liberty Theological Seminary, where he earned a D.Min for his work in discipleship and family ministry. Pastor Brian is an author and influencer having written Relentless Parenting: The Crucial Pursuit of Your Teen's Heart (co-authored by his wife Angela), Shift: What it Takes to Finally Reach Families Today, and The Legacy Path: Discover Intentional Spiritual Parenting. He is a contributing author for Recalibrate: A New Measure for Family Ministry and Family Ministry and the Church. His newest book, War in the Wilderness: Fight for Your Family When Life Isn't as it Should Be, is set to release in the spring of 2023.

Welcome back everyone! Today on the Thriving Beyond Belief podcast is our guest, Jarrett Stephens! A message of hope for an anxious day: God never changes. He is still here and ready to transform our lives. What we must ask is if we are ready to respond to him. In these turbulent times, many wonder where God is…and why he doesn’t seem to be intervening. Sure, he performed miracles in the Bible, but what about now? What about us? In The Always God: He Hasn’t Changed and You Are Not Forgotten (Jun 1, 2021, Multnomah), Pastor Jarrett Stephens reveals how God is always present, always working, and always faithful. In The Always God, Jarrett, pastor of Champion Forest Baptist Church in Houston, Texas, gives hope to those who think God has given up on us. It invites us to quiet ourselves and listen to the God who does not change or forget us. Not ever. And that changes everything. Jarrett asks readers: Do you wonder if God has forgotten you? He responds, “I wrote this book for you because I’ve been where you are. As a pastor, I walk with people who are where you are: in the midst of a trial, needing to be reminded that our God is always God and needing to be invited to journey with him to a place of greater assurance and intimacy. Regardless of how things may seem, he is always the same and can always be trusted.” Jarrett shares moments of his wild and sometimes painful journey, including: As a boy, when he was a victim of sex abuse from a little league coach for four years When he and his wife lost a child to miscarriage The years he prayed for a prodigal brother The suffering of a dear friend with cancer Bringing sound biblical teaching along with comforting guidance, he can help your audience answer such questions as: Is God listening and does he see me? Can I have an unwavering confidence that God is always here and always working? Can I get to a place where, no mat­ter what happens, doubt won’t overtake me?   Jarrett’s prayer is that every reader will discover in a very personal and powerful way just how faithful the always God really is. Jarrett Stephens is the senior pastor of Champion Forest Baptist Church, in Houston, Texas, one of the largest and most diverse churches in America, and he is the author of The Mountains Are Calling.Previously, he served as a teaching pastor at Prestonwood Baptist Church alongside Dr. Jack Graham. He has a bachelor of arts in biblical studies and psychology from Ouachita Baptist University, a master of divinity from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and a doctorate of ministry from Liberty Theological Seminary. Jarrett has been featured on The 700 Club, I Am Second and dozens of radio and podcast shows. “In these pages, you’ll find empathy, wisdom, encouragement, and a thoroughly biblical perspective for times when God seems distant or disinterested. Jarrett Stephens doesn’t flinch as he courageously confronts some of the most nettlesome issues that vex so many followers of Jesus. Whatever you do, don’t miss this journey toward wholeness. Let Jarrett lead you to a place of genuine hope and faith!” —Lee Strobel, bestselling author of The Case for Christ and The Case for Miracles
