A Word Fitly Spoken

Winter Is Coming! Are You Prepped?

It's just a few weeks away! No matter where you live, these upcoming winter months remind us that preparing for whatever comes our way in the freezing months ahead is a good thing.  Sometimes we can get so wrapped up in preparedness that it can become an idol. We have a God whose plans, whose providence, whose will is not going to be thwarted. Enjoy this throwback episode from a winter past...

Exposing John and Lisa Bevere

In this episode we are covering a very important discernment discussion on a popular couple who is deceiving so many people around the world. Their names are John and Lisa Bevere, and my co-host Michelle Lesley recently sat down with our good friend Dave Jenkins on his podcast called Contending for the Word to talk about why you shouldn’t be following these false teachers. Dave has graciously allowed us to bring this episode to our audience because many women follow the Beveres.

What You’ll Hear on This Episode

• Concerns about John’s understanding of biblical repentance
• What biblical repentance entails and means for the non-Christian and the Christian.
• The dangers of deliverance ministry and why this teaching is so concerning.
• The dangers of “legal rights” and the security the Christian has because of Christ.

Elections and the Freedom to Choose

If thought we were going to be talking about the Doctrines of Grace, we’re sorry to disappoint you, but that’s not the kind of election and choosing we’re going to be discussing today. With the 2024 Presidential election just days away, we’re going to talk about the freedom we have in America to choose our President and other governmental leaders. We’ll talk about voting, the election, the candidates, and a Christian response no matter who wins on November 5.

Welcome to the final episode of our 3 part series on Dying, Death, and Funerals.

Dying, Death and Funerals, Part 2

Welcome to part 2 of our 3 part series on Dying, Death, and Funerals. Death can be a scary, painful thing, but it’s our desire that this series will remind you of the hope we have in Christ. Today, we’re going to talk about how to handle some of the practicalities of death and funerals, plus some thoughts on ministering to the bereaved. And, of course, as Christians, the Bible will also inform how we handle those practical details.

Dying, Death, and Funerals- Part 1

Today, we’re embarking on a 3 episode series talking about a subject a lot of people don’t like to talk about: death. It’s sad, it can be scary and physically painful, and it’s permanent, but it’s important for Christians to have a biblical perspective on death. In part 1, we’re going to look at what the Bible says about death, what we should believe about death, and how to biblically navigate some issues surrounding death that the Bible doesn’t talk about.
