Top Ten from 2024: #8 Intentional Parenting in All Stages with Dr. Rob Rienow Matthew 18:3 (NIV) "And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." **Transcription of original episode** 230. Intentional Parenting in All Stages with Dr. Rob Rienow Questions and Topics We Discuss: As our children grow up, what wisdom can you share for both participating in and refraining from sports in childhood? Do you have any counsel for us as we navigate the teen years, especially as it relates to technology and friendships or relationships? If we do find ourselves in a child-centered family today, what are a few practical steps to move us in the direction of God's actual vision for our family and our marriage? Dr. Rob Rienow married Amy in 1994 and they have been blessed with 7 children. His most important ministry is loving his wife and leading his children to know God and love Him. Rob's mom came to Christ shortly after he was born so he was blessed to be introduced to Jesus at an early age. His parents divorced when he was in high school and God used that painful time in his life to give him a heart for young people and families going through dark times. He attended Wheaton College, then completed an MA in theology at Wheaton College Graduate School, an MDiv from Trinity International Divinity School, and a Doctor of Ministry in Christian Leadership from Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. Rob's life dramatically changed in 2004. God brought him to a place of deep repentance over the fact that he was disciplining other people's children, but not his own. He was a spiritual leader at church, but passive with his family. Through that time of repentance, God turned his heart to the ministry of his children and his wife. God then led He and Amy to launch Visionary Family Ministries, a ministry designed to inspire parents and grandparents to disciple their children, to help couples create mission driven-marriages, and equip churches to build Bible-driven ministries. Their mission is to build the church through a global reformation of family discipleship. He shares the biblical message of family discipleship at national and international conferences for parents, couples, and church leaders. He partners and consults with numerous churches, encouraging them to accelerate evangelism and discipleship through families.

Gospel Scripture: (all NIV) Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” Romans 3:24 “and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.” Romans 3:25 (a) “God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood.” Hebrews 9:22 (b) “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.” Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:11 “Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Luke 15:10 says “In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Romans 8:1 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” Ephesians 1:13–14 “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.” Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“ Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“ Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”
Dr. French graduated with his Ph.D. from one of the leading European universities, the University of Birmingham in England, in December 2011. His Doctoral Thesis is the first of its kind, researching the foundations of the Oneness Movement at a major university under the supervision of well-known and well-published college administrator, educator, and author Dr. Allan Anderson, Director of the Graduate Institute at the University of Birmingham.The 140,000-word Thesis is entitled “Early Oneness Pentecostalism, G. T. Haywood, and the Interracial Pentecostal Assemblies of the World (1906-1931)” and uncovers a wealth of historical treasures and important bits of missing data regarding the early growth, development, and leadership of Oneness Pentecostalism. The core of the research documents the fascinating and important primary sources regarding Haywood's role in the interracial success of the early movement, especially the PAW, the forerunner organization of the UPCI. The Thesis demonstrates the trajectory of the emerging movement from inception to a movement of more than 30 million today.Dr. French has also earned degrees from and/or studied at the Apostolic Bible Institute (St. Paul), Crighton College (Memphis), Wheaton College and Wheaton College Graduate School, and the University of Indiana (Bloomington). In addition to the Ph.D., he holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Ancient Language (Greek), a Master of Arts degree in New Testament Theology, and a four-year degree in Pentecostal Studies. His earlier Master of Arts Thesis at Wheaton College Graduate School on the history of the Oneness Pentecostal movement gained national recognition when published in 1999 under the title Our God Is One: The Story of the Oneness Pentecostals. It is a landmark study, and now a best-seller, regarding the history and expansion of the Oneness movement into a worldwide phenomenon.After the publication of Our God Is One, he also developed for publication a laminated doctrinal booklet series, “Steadfast in the Apostles' Doctrine,” in a fold-out pamphlet format. The series includes two full-color titles, The Oneness and Jesus' Name Baptism.Talmadge and Rebecca French have been married for forty-five years and have three sons. Talmadge L. French began preaching ministry in 1976 and evangelized for four years. He served three years as an assistant pastor in West Memphis, Arkansas, with Rev. Bobby McCool, then went to the Chicago area to establish a new church in Wheaton, Illinois, beginning in 1983. He served for a time on the UPCI Illinois District Board.In 1994, he began commuting to Indianapolis as an Instructor of Bible, Theology, and Biblical Languages at Indiana Bible College of Calvary Tabernacle, Paul Mooney, President. In 2000, the French family moved to Indianapolis to become the full-time Dean of the Department of Biblical Studies, continuing as a full-time Instructor. In 2005, he became the Executive Vice President of Indiana Bible College, a position he held from 2005-2007.After leaving IBC in May 2007, he became Provost of the Apostolic School of Theology, Sacramento, California, and instructor of theology and biblical languages, developing extensive course work for online accredited Apostolic studies, including online courses in Greek and Hebrew. These courses, including Greek and Hebrew, Theology and Doctrine, Philosophy, Ethics, Evangelism, and more, are now being prepared for online availability through the Oneness Studies Institute.The Frenches moved to Durham, North Carolina, in 2009, serving as a minister with the First Pentecostal Church, after which, in 2010, they established their family in the Raleigh Temple of Pentecost to begin a temporary period of full-time itinerant ministry as they entered the final year of PhD studies with the University of Birmingham, UK, which was completed in 2011. Talmadge and Rebecca became the pastor here at Apostolic Tabernacle in July of 2011.

The God on the Move podcast is back with regular episodes, sharing inspiring God stories from the global church, with the global church. At least, almost. During our break, we've been working on expanding God on the Move to a whole new content category dedicated to sharing testimonies of God's work across the world. Designed for every believer, this new category of content highlights inspirational God stories from the global church through articles, videos, podcasts, as well as non-English content. God on the Move invites you to witness and participate in God's mission across cultures and generations. On top of that, you can now join the God on the Move community on the Lausanne Action Hub to be part of the conversation, see exclusive content and share your own testimony. Join the God on the Move Community here. With this new approach, we will also be switching to a new rhythm of releasing God on the Move podcast episodes only every other week, while the Lausanne Movement podcast episodes will be published in the weeks between. We hope that this new rhythm will allow you to get to enjoy both of the podcasts. And so, with this new Bonus Episode, We're doing something slightly different to what we normally do and bringing you the latest Lausanne Movement Podcast episode before returning to our God on the Move stories next Monday.

Have you heard these statements about a woman with leadership gifts? 1. That woman is less capable of leadership due to the way she talks/smiles/laughs/doesn't smile. 2.

Questions and Topics We Discuss: As our children grow up, what wisdom can you share for both participating in and refraining from sports in childhood?

Dr. Rob Rienow married Amy in 1994 and they have been blessed with 7 children. His most important ministry is loving his wife and leading his children to know God and love Him. Rob's mom came to Christ shortly after he was born so he was blessed to be introduced to Jesus at an early age. His parents divorced when he was in high school and God used that painful time in his life to give him a heart for young people and families going through dark times. He attended Wheaton College, then completed an MA in theology at Wheaton College Graduate School, an MDiv from Trinity International Divinity School, and a Doctor of Ministry in Christian Leadership from Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. Rob's life dramatically changed in 2004. God brought him to a place of deep repentance over the fact that he was disciplining other people's children, but not his own. He was a spiritual leader at church, but passive with his family. Through that time of repentance, God turned his heart to the ministry of his children and his wife. God then led He and Amy to launch Visionary Family Ministries, a ministry designed to inspire parents and grandparents to disciple their children, to help couples create mission driven-marriages, and equip churches to build Bible-driven ministries. Their mission is to build the church through a global reformation of family discipleship. He shares the biblical message of family discipleship at national and international conferences for parents, couples, and church leaders. He partners and consults with numerous churches, encouraging them to accelerate evangelism and discipleship through families.

Gospel Scripture: (all NIV) Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” Romans 3:24 “and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.” Romans 3:25 (a) “God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood.” Hebrews 9:22 (b) “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.” Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:11 “Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Luke 15:10 says “In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Romans 8:1 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” Ephesians 1:13–14 “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.” Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“ Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“ Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

Dr. Douglas Moo is Kenneth T. Wessner Professor of New Testament in Wheaton College Graduate School and has led the Committee on Bible Translation (the group of scholars charged with revising the text of the NIV). While it is obvious that a translation must substitute one vocabulary (e.g., English) for another (e.g., Hebrew), it is not always understood that a translation must also substitute one grammar (sentence structure, or syntax) for another. It is this aspect that helps to illustrate how among English translations the ESV, NIV, and NLT represent points on a spectrum from more “formal” to more “dynamic” theoretical approaches.

“The greatest act of worship is to become who God says you are.” - Rev. Dr. Brenda Salter McNeilOn this episode of Restoring the Soul, Michael welcomes authors Rev. Dr. Brenda Salter McNeil and Rick Richardson to discuss their latest book, “The Heart of Racial Justice: How Soul Change Leads to Social Change.” In it, they recognize that racial and ethnic hostility is one of the most pervasive problems the church faces. In large part, because it is a spiritual battle. In this book and in conversation with Michael, Brenda and Rick provide a model of racial reconciliation, social justice, and spiritual healing that creates both individual and community transformation.Rick Richardson is director of the Billy Graham Center Institute and its Church Evangelism Initiative, and professor of evangelism and leadership at Wheaton College Graduate School. Rev. Dr. Brenda Salter McNeil is a dynamic speaker, an author, and a trailblazer with over thirty years of experience in the ministry of racial, ethnic, and gender reconciliation.

Growing up in St. Louis, Vince Bantu clearly recognized the racialized nature of the city as being predominantly Black and poor on the north side where he lived and predominantly white and wealthy on the south side where he attended church. As he continued into his college years at a largely-white, evangelical school, he began to think that being a "good Christian" meant that he had to deny his own unique biracial and Black heritage and assimilate into the dominant culture. So discovering that his ethnic identity was in fact a gift from God and that Christianity did not, in fact, originate from Europe were life-changing realizations and ultimately led to his scholarship and writing A Multitude of All Peoples: Engaging Ancient Christianity's Global Identity. In this riveting interview, Vince upends the misconception that Christianity is becoming a global religion and explains how it in fact has always been so. He also explains in no uncertain terms why he is is targeting people of color and those who are on the margins in the church with his teaching and his message. If you are someone who similarly cares about learning from marginalized voices, or if you want to learn more about what that means, then this compelling conversation is not one you should miss.About the Guest: Vince L.

Dorena Williamson's journey to becoming a writer was an unexpected one and began when she as a mom noticed a dearth of literature that offered the representation for her Black children. And if she did find books that featured characters of color, the faith element was missing. So she began praying, "God, how can you use me to have an impact in this area of addressing race and colorblindness?" The answer to this prayer was that Dorena became a children's author, starting with her 2018 book ColorFull: Celebrating the Colors God Gave Us. She is now one of the featured authors in the inaugural year of IVP Kids with her newest book The Celebration Place which offers a captivating vision of the church as God intended. You will love hearing from this delightful, faithful writer who has had to push against everything from imposter syndrome to apathy about racial issues in the industry, and in so doing has created books that both children and adults can treasure. About the Guest:Dorena Williamson has a passion for all children to hear the message of God's diverse kingdom. She writes children's books that adults also enjoy and is the author of ColorFull, ThoughtFull, and GraceFull.

Years ago, Terry Wildman had encountered a version of the New Testament in Hopi, but he could not find anyone who could read it. For so many Natives, understanding their own languages is a skill that has been lost due to the effects of colonization, yet reading the Bible in modern-day translations still leaves something to be desired. That experience planted a seed in Terry that eventually became The First Nations Version of the New Testament that reflects the oral storytelling of Native cultures. In this conversation with Every Voice Now co-host Maila Kim and guest co-host Al Hsu (who served as the editor of The First Nations Version), you'll learn about the incredible collaboration between representatives from multiple Native tribes and better understand why certain words resonate more strongly for Native readers (or can even potentially cause trauma and need to be avoided). If you have a love for the God ("Creator") and Scripture (or "the Good Story"), and you want to see how Creator worked through Terry to bring this version to life, then you won't want to miss this episode.About the Guest:Terry Wildman (Ojibwe and Yaqui) is the lead translator, general editor, and project manager of the First Nations Version. He serves as the director of spiritual growth and leadership development for Native InterVarsity. He is also the founder of Rain Ministries and has previously served as a pastor and worship leader.

Writing can be a challenge for anyone, whether you are an experienced writer or not. But then layer on top of that working full-time outside the home.

Liuan Huska was only in her twenties when she began experiencing pain, first in her ankle but then to her knee, her lower back, and throughout other areas in her body. It was the beginning of a years-long journey with a chronic illness that raised many questions for her about what it means to be human, and what faith looks like when daily pain is a part of one's discipleship journey. Writing became the means through which Liuan was able to discern answers and understand that her value in God's eyes came not from the things that she was able to do, but because her full being was made in God's image. Liuan also shares about the intersection between the struggles of the immigrant experience and the propensity Asian Americans have to deny or push past areas of pain, and how she came to learn healthier and new ways to respond. You will be touched by Liuan's thoughtful, vulnerable reflections in this honest and revealing conversation.About the Guest:Liuan Huska is a freelance writer and speaker focusing on topics of embodiment and spirituality. Her writing, on everything from chronic pain to evangelical fertility trends, has appeared in Christianity Today, The Christian Century, In Touch Magazine, Hyphen, Sojourners, and Church Health Reader. She lives with her husband and their three little boys in the Chicago area.

Juanita Rasmus was the co-pastor of a flourishing ministry alongside her husband Rudy, doing good work for the kingdom of God in and around Houston. But then one day she came face to face with a depressive episode that began a season of nearly three years' worth of dark nights of the soul. As she realized that her experience with depression was not merely a hardship to overcome, but an invitation to a new way of living, she began writing as a way to process what she was learning to become. In this engaging and honest conversation, Juanita shares her desire to help lessen the stigma of mental health issues and unpacks the years-long journey she took to bring her words to life. She also shares how it is that Beyoncé's mother, Tina Knowles Lawson, wrote the foreword to her book and why it is important to find publishers who value her voice.About the Guest:Juanita Campbell Rasmus is a speaker, writer, spiritual director, and contemplative.

If you had told Antipas Harris when he was a child that he would grow up to write a book, he would likely have doubted you. As a boy in the deep South who grew up in a poor family and struggled with learning disabilities, he could not have imagined the paths down which God would take him. Despite the personal and structural barriers he faced, he was ultimately faithful to the tasks put before him, resulting in his writing Is Christianity the White Man's Religion? The question came from a disenchanted millennial in his classroom, and the more Antipas engaged with students from this generation, the more he understood what was at the heart of the question, and the more he was motivated to tackle it in his book. A Billboard hit also makes a cameo in this episode, from Antipas's former life as part of a hit musical group.About the Guest:Antipas L. Harris is the president and dean of Jakes Divinity School and serves on the pastoral staff at The Potter's House in Dallas, Texas. He is an ordained minister, a theological educator, and a musician with degrees from LaGrange College, Candler School of Theology (Emory University), Yale Divinity School, Boston University, and St. Thomas University. Before being appointed to his current role by Bishop T. D. Jakes, Harris founded the Urban Renewal Center in Norfolk, Virginia, where he led initiatives that addressed the intersections of faith, justice, and community development. His objective is to help people overcome distress, reinforce faith, impart comfort through the arts, and provide stability through education.

Dick Foth is an author and public speaker who has spent 25 years working with his wife Ruth to encourage and support business leaders to be the best they can be in their personal lives too.

He holds a master's degree from Wheaton College Graduate School and a doctorate from Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. He is on the education teams of four congregations, including the National Community Church in Washington, D. C. Dick joins me today to highlight the importance of authenticity in a great leader; he explains why leaders shouldn't concentrate on their career at the expense of their personal life and why having good friends is integral to your wellbeing. We discuss his experience in Washington D.C and why it can be hard for professionals at the top of their game in any arena to trust new people and why his gift for making authentic personal connections helped him help them. Dick also shares his wisdom on why you shouldn't be afraid to show your vulnerability and share your lows as well as your successes and why ‘leading with a limp' can build deep friendships. “A leader is somebody who is secure and is both authentic and vulnerable. They're true to themselves and can see the best course to take, but they also realize their own limitations.” - Dick Foth This week on The Wow Factor: How childhood health challenges led to inspiring moments for Dick The wisdom that a graduate school teacher passed on that has followed him through his whole life Dick's experience as a college president and why he left that role to take on a new challenge Why Dick is passionate about being a trustworthy friend to people in places of leadership Dick's experience of being close to the Pentagon on 9/11 Why walking alongside the country's leaders taught Dick how to spot a leader with a good heart How leaders can build a network of true friends and why it is so important to have a rich personal life Dick's approach to his interview with George W. Bush and why he was surprised by their talk Dick Foth's Words of Wisdom: It isn't that you have a story; you are a story.
