    Episode 253: Prayer Intercession with Rev. Dr. Carolyn Poteet

    Join us for the first episode in our three-part series, "The Power of Prayer," featuring Rev. Dr. Carolyn Poteet, senior pastor of Mount Lebanon Evangelical Presbyterian Church and National Leadership Team member. In this conversation, Carolyn shares her journey into a life of prayer—from her early work with World Vision traveling to war zones in Africa, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East, to her calling to ministry in the American church context. Carolyn recently completed her doctoral dissertation, "Pandemic Pruning," which focused on mid-sized EPC churches during the pandemic and the essential role of abiding in Christ. As we approach the holiday season, this series offers a timely reminder that healthy churches are praying churches, and healthy leaders are anchored to the Father in prayer. Reach out to Carolyn for her dissertation or the lament prayer exercise resource at cpoteet@mlepc.org

    Episode 252: Art for God’s Glory with Dave Strunk

    Join guest host Gianna Lazzaro and Dave Strunk, 45th General Assembly moderator and current chairman of the NLT, for the fourth and final episode of their art series. In this conversation, they explore how we can encounter God through art created by flawed human beings and discuss the biblical story arc of creation, fall, redemption, and consummation as a framework for understanding art's role in our faith.   The conversation touches on cultural versus Christian standards, Romans 14 considerations for stronger and weaker believers, and how different kinds of art can help us engage both our heads and our hearts in the Christian life.   Resources:   Wendell Berry poems: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/wendell-berry   Mozart's Clarinet Concerto: https://youtu.be/YT_63UntRJE?si=0sdhtKvrHDJmALHw   "The Altar" by George Herbert: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/44358/the-altar

    Episode 249: Art and God with Dave Strunk

    Join podcast producer Gianna Lazzaro as guest host alongside Dave Strunk, Moderator of the 45th General Assembly, for the first episode of a special four-week series exploring God and art. In this conversation, Gianna and Dave dive into foundational questions about the nature of art and beauty, defining art as a gratuitous human creation of beauty and an intrinsic act that flows from being made in God's image. The discussion explores how art has been present throughout human civilization—from cave paintings to poetry—and examines beauty as a reflection of God's perfection and nature. Future episodes will explore art and the Bible, art in the Christian life, and art for God's glory. See the list below for some of the resources Gianna and Dave mentioned in this episode!

    Episode 248: Digital Discipleship with Holly Lazzaro

    Join us for a timely conversation with Holly Lazzaro, chair of the newly formed Ad-Interim Committee on Digital Discipleship in the Age of Artificial Intelligence. In this episode, we explore what it means to be a faithful follower of Jesus in an increasingly digital world. Holly shares how the Presbytery of the East brought an overture to the 46th General Assembly that led to the creation of this important committee, tasked with developing a position paper to help the EPC think biblically about discipleship in the digital age.   The conversation tackles the polarized reactions people often have to artificial intelligence, and why the church needs a more nuanced, theologically grounded approach. Holly outlines seven ethical categories the church should consider, but also highlights positive ways churches can leverage technology—when it points people toward people, removes administrative friction from ministry, and becomes a subject of discipleship itself.   Resources:   Holly's Substack: https://formednotfed.substack.com/

    Episode 246: Children’s Theology with Andy Koesters

    In this episode of the "Christians Beyond the Classroom" series, Dean sits down with Andy Koesters, pastor to churches and families at FamiliesAlive and missional director for New River Presbytery, to discuss discipling the next generation. Andy shares the heart behind his book Let the Children Come, which he wrote primarily for elders and church leaders to equip them with a biblical vision for next-generation discipleship.   The discussion highlights practical ways churches can unleash believers into discipleship through common interests rather than traditional program volunteering, the importance of elders truly shepherding and knowing their flock, and how parents can create environments where children feel safe to express doubts and questions from the earliest age. Andy challenges listeners to become students of what it means to be a discipler like Jesus—sharing the gospel and their own selves with affectionate desire for those around them.   Resources:   Families Alive: https://familiesalive.org/   Andy's book Let the Children Come: https://familiesalive.org/product/let-the-children-come/   DIY Biblical Parenting podcast: Available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify   EPC Church Health: https://epconnect.org/cpch/churchhealth/
