Ever wondered how growing up between worlds can actually make you see your own culture more clearly? This conversation with Dr. Holly Berkley Fletcher flips the script on what it means to be a missionary kid—not just as someone with wild stories or an identity crisis, but as a kind of secret decoder for understanding white evangelicalism's grip on American politics. There's a moment here where a single high school banquet in Kenya, complete with a Confederate flag, opens up a whole hidden history most of us never learned in Sunday school. What if the very things you thought were just “normal” missionary experiences are actually the missing puzzle pieces for understanding the rise of Christian nationalism today? Stick around, because the connections Holly draws between global childhoods and the current culture wars in the U.S. will surprise you—and might even change how you see your own story. In this episode, you will be able to: Explore how white evangelicalism shapes political landscapes and influences key decisions that affect society. Discover the unique role missionary kids play in decoding the complexities of evangelical culture worldwide. Understand the challenges third culture kids face as they navigate identity, belonging, and faith across different worlds. Trace the historical roots of Christian nationalism to see how it impacts modern cultural and political conversations. My special guest is Dr. Holly Berkley Fletcher Holly Berkley Fletcher is an author and historian who really knows what it means to live between worlds. Raised in Kenya as the daughter of Southern Baptist missionaries, Holly attended Rift Valley Academy and grew up balancing both her American roots and the culture around her. Her background extends far beyond childhood, though—she earned a PhD in American Studies, taught at the university level, and later worked as a CIA analyst specializing in Africa. Holly's life as a third culture kid gives her a distinctive lens on white evangelicalism and Christian nationalism, while her research dives into how missionary kids navigate the complicated push and pull of belonging and identity. She brings a clear-eyed, honest perspective that connects personal experience with bigger questions about faith, power, and the impact of evangelical culture around the globe.

BIG IDEA: The Holy Spirit Makes Straight the Way to the Lord 1. Look to the Holy Spirit to Send 2. Look to the Holy Spirit to Speak   Discussion Questions  1. How should we make  significant ministry or life decisions today? How might we be tempted to skip this step? 2. What are some practical signs that apathy has set into our walk with God? How can fasting, prayer, and community help revive our zeal for Him? 3. What are some ways we can train ourselves to recognize and obey the “voice” of the Holy Spirit through Scripture and godly counsel, especially when the path ahead is confusing? 4. What are some modern “Elymas”-like influences that oppose the gospel today, and how should the church respond to such deception? 5. How does this passage challenge our tendency to elevate a few “superstars” in ministry rather than value the role of the whole body?

On today's episode of The Evangelism Podcast, Evangelist Daniel King and Pastor Phumiwanet Methiakrakul of Thailand about the "Everyone Thailand" vision to reach 7 million people in Thailand with the gospel, which would be 10% of the country's 70 million population. They discuss the strategic location of the city of Pitsanulok (where Daniel King is doing a crusade) as a crossroads of Indochina, with China building infrastructure like roads and railways connecting the region. We are targeting a strategic location for our upcoming crusade in the middle of Southeast Asia.

The apostles were missionaries because they too were sent by our Lord Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19; Acts 1:8). The word “apostles” means “sent.” They went, carried, and died carrying the message of Christ to all the world.This means that, if you are a believer, he has sent you to be a witness, to share the […]

Anyone who has been serving as a missionary for very long knows that missionaries disagree on many issues from time to time! We even find disagreements in the pages of the book of Acts. Listen in as we share 4 biblical principles to apply when we disagree with coworkers, and some practical tips we have learned over the years as well. 

We often think of missionaries as those sent overseas—but Jesus calls all of us to make disciples right where we are. In this episode, we explore Matthew 28:18–20 and talk about how to live on mission through everyday steps: pray, invite, and share.

In this first of two episodes on Christian missionaries, Nate and Pastor Joseph dig into the passion, pitfalls, and awkward realities of bringing the Gospel across borders.

Grab a beer tonight as we wrap up our series on the Wendigo! First up: Swift Runner, the six-foot-three Cree trapper who led his wife, six kids, and elderly mother-in-law into the bush for the winter of 1879 and walked out alone. We're talking starvation nightmares, marrow-boiled bones, and that gallows scene where he sang a Cree death song, cracked a joke about “Swift Runner's stew,” and kicked the trapdoor himself. Then we jump over to Sucker Lake for Jack Fiddler, the legendary shaman, fourteen-time Wendigo slayer, and the guy locals begged to “fix” possessed relatives before they went full cannibal. You'll hear how two mercy killings put him on a collision course with the Mounties, why he ended up cooking rabbit for his captors while still in leg irons, and how he slipped those irons, walked into the spruce, and hanged himself with the same snare line he'd used on suspected Wendigos. We wrap with the culture clash that followed. Missionaries, headline-hungry reporters, and a jury stuck between Cree tradition and Canadian law, and why modern psychiatry finally kicked “Wendigo psychosis” out of the textbooks. https://www.necronomipod.com https://www.patreon.com/necronomipod Sponsored by BetterHelp: https://www.betterhelp.com/necro Learn more about your ad choices.

It's a story of joyful mission service with two LCMS Lutheran Lady Missionaries! In this delightful conversation (recorded in person at the LWML Convention in Omaha), the Ladies welcome Deaconess Carol Halter, the LCMS's longest-serving missionary, and Chelsea Irwin, one of the youngest LCMS missionaries, to share their stories of serving as international missionaries.   Did they always want to serve overseas? What do they actually *do* as a missionary? How have they seen Jesus at work in the lives of the people they serve? Did Carol's story *really* influence Chelsea in her vocational path?  Deaconess Carol Lee Halter has served as an evangelistic missionary among the Chinese people in Hong Kong since 1981. From 1969 to 1981, Carol served as a missionary with the Chinese Lutheran Church of the Holy Spirit in San Francisco. For three and a half years before that, she was a volunteer missionary in Hong Kong. Carol does humanitarian, evangelistic and educational work among Chinese people of all ages who live in Hong Kong. Her prayer is that all Chinese people will hear the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ — especially from each other.  Chelsea Irwin serves the Lord through The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) in the Eurasia region as missionary coordinator for volunteer opportunities. Based out of Český Těšín, Czech Republic, she works with LCMS missionaries and local church partners to place and send volunteers to serve in Eurasia. These individuals or groups engage in projects such as English Bible Camps, theological education and mission education, to name a few. Chelsea seeks to challenge volunteers to live out the Great Commission by viewing each day as a mission trip. She encourages them to support and stay connected to the Eurasia region, as well as serving in their own churches and communities.    To learn more, check out the following links:    Deaconess Carol Halter – The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod  Chelsea Irwin – The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod  International Mission – The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod   LCMS International Mission Facebook Page  How you can serve: Missionary Service – The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod   Erin's *other* podcast: 5 Minutes with a Missionary Archives – KFUO Radio   Connect with the Lutheran Ladies on social media in The Lutheran Ladies' Lounge Facebook discussion group (facebook.com/groups/LutheranLadiesLounge) and on Instagram @lutheranladieslounge.

SummaryIn this episode of the Bible and Theology Matters podcast, Dr. Paul Weaver discusses the Book of Galatians with Dr. Michael Burer. They explore the historical context, the occasion for Paul's passionate letter, and the theological implications of the crisis faced by the early church. The conversation delves into the identity of the Jewish Christian missionaries who challenged Paul's teachings and the significance of justification by faith. The episode emphasizes the importance of understanding the early church's struggles with the law and faith, and how these issues remain relevant today.Takeaways-Every New Testament epistle was written for a reason.-Paul's letter to the Galatians addresses specific needs of the early church.-Jewish Christian missionaries challenged Paul's teachings on faith and law.-The crisis in Galatia was a theological and communal departure from the gospel.-Paul's strong tone was a response to confusion among the churches.-Understanding the historical context helps clarify the message of Galatians.-The debate over North and South Galatia impacts the interpretation of the letter.-Paul's argument emphasizes justification by faith alone.-The law served as a tutor to lead us to Christ.-The early church wrestled with the relationship between faith and the law.

I wish I knew that I was truly a son of God. You can figure out who you are by gaining a relationship with your Father in Heaven. It's real. It's almost tangible. There's times where I say prayers and I feel the spirit so strongly that I'm speechless, you know? I think if we really try to get close to Heavenly Father, He's not going to hold back."September 5th & 6th Provo COME BACK TO CHRIST EVENT Tickets can be purchased at https://www.comebackpodcast.org/come-back-to-christ-event-september-5-6-utah-valley-convention-center-provo-ut-2/Cozy Earth code COMEBACK for 40% off https://cozyearth.com/Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% offhttps://serveclothing.com/00:00 Struggles with Church and Addiction06:12 Will's Early Childhood and Family Background07:43 Impact of Missionaries and Church Activities19:23 Realization and Return to Faith35:31 A Pivotal Bishop Interview45:41 Mission Challenges and Growth56:09 Advice for Those Who Feel They Don't Belong01:01:02 Closing Thoughts and GratitudeIf you have a story to share please contact ashly.comebackpodcast@gmail.comFor business inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.comCome Back Team:Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly StoneEditor: Cara ReedOutreach Manager: Jenna CarlsonAssistant Editor: Michelle BergerAssistant Editor: Britt SmallzeArt Director: Jeremy GarciaProduction Director: Trent Wardwell

In the midst of the Three Weeks, we bring to you this amazing episode where we got to sit down with Rabbi Tovia Singer to discuss his mission of bringing back wayward Jews, as well as wayward non-Jews. Rabbi Singer is the leading voice in Orthodoxy who is almost single handedly taking on the Christian missionaries who are spending time and money attempting to lure Jews into converting to Christianity. Rabbi Singer has a large following which is eclipsed by his breadth of knowledge of not just Nach, but even of the New Testament.   You can check out more about Rabbi Singer and his work at: https://www.outreachjudaism.org ________ ** Town Appliance - For All Of Your Appliance Needs! ** No matter the budget, Town Appliance will get you the right appliance for your needs and give you the most value for your money. https://www.townappliance.com/ Call/Text/Whatsapp: 732-364-5195 ________ ** BONUS CONTENT AVAILABLE NOW BY PHONE! ** Subscribe At: 605-417-0303 If you're having an issue connecting to our call-in number: Alternate number: 605-562-3525 To Call In From Israel: +053-243-3287 ________ Get official KC swag and show your support to the world! https://kiddushclubmerch.com ________ Subscribe now to keep us going and access bonus content! https://buymeacoffee.com/kiddushclub/membership ________ Follow us: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kiddushclubpodcast/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/kiddushclubcast Join our WhatsApp chat: https://2ly.link/27DRp Send us you thoughts comments and suggestions via email: hock@kiddushclubpodcast.com  

E.Z., Mark, and Oscar retrace Ray's evangelism journey across Tahiti, Fiji, Australia, New Zealand, and Hawaii, experiencing both challenges and powerful encounters as they shared the gospel. From late-night partiers in Tahiti to a weeping man in Fiji, they saw firsthand how the message of Christ can reach hearts in unexpected ways. Along the way, they used creativity, cultural connections, and boldness to open doors for conversation. Visiting places significant to Ray's faith journey made the experience even more meaningful. In a concluding Q&A, the guys offered practical evangelism advice, encouraged using downtime for spiritual growth, affirmed the role of women in sharing the gospel, and reminded listeners that God's grace makes us worthy, not our past. Send us a textThanks for listening!
