What's Holding You Back From Bold Christian Witness? This Woman's Story Will Shock You! Ever wonder why some Christians boldly share their faith while others stay silent? In this powerful sermon from John 4:27-34, Pastor Fortunato reveals the shocking truth about the woman at the well that will transform how you view Christian witness and evangelism. Discover why Jesus chose a woman with five failed marriages and a broken past to be one of His most effective witnesses. This isn't your typical Sunday school lesson - it's a raw, honest look at how God uses imperfect people to reach lost souls. You'll learn why the disciples were uncomfortable with Jesus' approach and how their reaction mirrors many Christians today. This biblical exposition tackles tough questions about Christian witness, women in ministry, and overcoming shame from your past. Pastor Fortunato doesn't hold back as he challenges modern church culture and explains why Jesus violated religious traditions to reach the lost. The sermon includes practical application for Christian living, biblical submission, and finding your purpose in God's will. Key takeaways include understanding how to leave your "water pot" behind, why perfect theology isn't required for effective witnessing, and how to see people as Jesus sees them - as thirsty souls needing salvation. This message will inspire you to step out of your comfort zone and share the gospel with confidence, regardless of your past mistakes or imperfect knowledge. Whether you're struggling with shame, afraid to witness, or wondering how God can use your broken past, this sermon provides biblical answers and practical encouragement.

The culture wants to silence biblical discussion, but God's Word still stands when we study it honestly.

On occasion we address Covenant Church family questions during the Sunday morning message. We want to engage our folks where they are, and these questions help our pastors be more effective, by understanding where they struggle.There are many decisions Covenant makes, positions we take et al that do not make the difference between heaven and hell, and on which other churches sometimes take a different approach.

In this conversation, Sara Nielsen and Tony Vis discuss the topic of women in ministry leadership, exploring its biblical foundations, personal experiences, and the importance of community and disagreement within the church. They reflect on their journeys, the role of scripture, and the need for both men and women to lead together in order to represent the fullness of God.

In this episode, we're joined by the wise and wonderful Lisa Harper — author, Bible teacher, and one of the most joy-filled voices in the Church today. With her trademark humor and heartfelt honesty, Lisa shares a powerful conversation with Shelley Giglio about theology, friendship, and the beauty of living in a deep community connection. Lisa opens up about her early struggles with inadequacy and how, for a time, theology became a mask she wore rather than a lens through which she could truly see Jesus. But as God gently reshaped her heart, Lisa began to understand that real theology is deeply relational, all about knowing Christ and letting that knowledge transform our lives. In this conversation, Lisa lets us into how that revelation has impacted her view on community, and challenges us to do the same. She also gives us a glimpse into what God is doing through her Kerygma Conference and her new book, “A Jesus Shaped Life.” In true Lisa Harper fashion, this episode is filled with both deep belly laughs and powerful theological truths, serving as a reminder to us that theology isn't just for classrooms or scholars, but for every woman longing to know Jesus and walk with Him more closely.The Grove is an extension of all God is doing here at Passion City Church in Atlanta, Georgia, to serve and care for women everywhere.

Send us a text In this episode of the Bare Marriage Podcast, I am talking with Biblical Greek scholar Marg Mowczko about the true meaning of "headship" in the Bible. Marg reveals that the Greek word "kephale" (head) doesn't typically mean "leader" or "authority" in ancient literature, and that no verse actually commands men to lead their wives. Instead,  head-body metaphors are used in Scripture to describe unity and mutual care and as a picture of growing into the likeness of Christ for ALL Christians.  Together, Marg and I talk about the Biblical evidence of Paul's support for women in ministry roles. We also take a moment to discuss the best Bible versions for more accurate translation in key passages about submission and hierarchy. TO SUPPORT US: Join our Patreon for as little as $5 a month to support our workFor tax deductible donations in the U.S., support Good Fruit Faith Initiative through the Bosko FoundationAnd check out our Merch, or any of our courses!Join our email list!THINGS MENTIONEDMarg's websiteMarg's patreonMarg's blog post on the best Bible versionEverything on 1 Corinthians 11Everything on Ephesians 5Support the showJoin Sheila at Bare Marriage.com!Check out her books: The Great Sex Rescue She Deserves Better The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex and The Good Guy's Guide to Great Sex And she has an Orgasm Course and a Libido course too!Check out all her courses, FREE resources, social media, books, and so much more at Sheila's LinkTree.

In this episode of The Grove Podcast, Shelley Giglio sits down with the legendary CeCe Winans — the best-selling female gospel artist of all time — for a heartfelt conversation about legacy, surrender, and what it really means to live a life marked by Jesus.CeCe's voice and influence have shaped generations of worshippers, but it's her deep love for Jesus and her desire to reflect Him clearly that shines most.

Joe Rigney's recent work, The Sin of Empathy, explores how abuse can occur when we neglect the reality of objective truth in our efforts to sympathize with others. I enjoyed this conversation with Joe and appreciate the way he challenges us to think more deeply about how words like empathy are used in our culture. Toward the end of the podcast, Joe and I have a frank discussion about women in ministry—a conversation I believe was mutually beneficial.Youtube - https://youtu.be/JA-Jlc4nbFoAudio - https://andymilleriii.com/media/podcastApple -  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-to-the-story-with-dr-andy-miller/id1569988895?uo=4The Sin of Empathy: How Morality Fell Apart – Joe RigneyIf you are interested in learning more about my two video-accompanied courses, Contender: Going Deeper in the Book of Jude andHeaven and Other Destinations: A Biblical Journey Beyond this World , visit courses.andymilleriii.comAnd don't forget about my most recent book, Contender, which is available on Amazon! Five Steps to Deeper Teaching and Preaching - Recently, I updated this PDF document and added a 45-minute teaching video with slides, explaining this tool.

In this honest and heartfelt conversation, Pastor Josh hosts his wife Lauren and staff member Cynthia to discuss a topic that often sparks debate in the church: women in ministry. Drawing from their own church backgrounds, personal experiences, and deep respect for scripture, they explore the biblical roles of women in leadership, the importance of God's order, and how Church on the Rock navigates the tension between empowerment and alignment with the Word. With vulnerability and conviction, they unpack scriptures, historical context, and real-life examples—affirming that while women at COTR teach, lead, and communicate the gospel, the office of pastor is reserved for men. This is part one of a two-part conversation intended to both clarify their church's stance and encourage the wider body of Christ.

In this breakout session from TGCW24, Michael Kruger makes a compelling case for the essential role of women in ministry—not as optional or merely permitted, but as vital by God's design. Drawing from theological, biblical, and historical perspectives, he highlights women's significant contributions throughout Scripture and early Christianity, urging the church to embrace both spiritual fathers and mothers and encouraging women to step into their ministry callings.
