    How Christians Gathered in the 1st Century, and Why We Should Care with Dr. Tom Wadsworth

    The episode features a conversation with Dr. Tom Wadsworth on the historical understanding of early Christian gatherings and worship practices. The discussion explores how the Lord's Supper evolved from the representation of Jesus' sacrifice to being viewed as a sacrifice offered by Christians to God, reflecting broader cultural influences from Judaism and paganism. The podcast delves into the structure of early assemblies, the significance of household gatherings, and the development of church liturgy and leadership over the centuries. It also tackles contentious issues such as the descriptive versus prescriptive debate in interpreting New Testament practices and the challenges of transitioning from structured worship services to more informal, participatory gatherings in homes. In this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 2:44 Why is Early Church Gathering Such a Controversial Topic? 04:39 Prescriptive vs. Descriptive Debate 07:14 Exploring Early Christian Assemblies 10:22 The Evolution of Christian Liturgy 21:22 1st Century House Churches and Informal Gatherings 29:15 Is Modern Worship Too Professional? 33:08 What Were They Actually Doing in 1st Century Church Gatherings? 36:26 Prophecy and Edification in Early Gatherings 39:02 Leadership and Order in Early Churches 42:27 Understanding 'Ecclesia' and Church Dynamics 44:38 Family and Household Impact on the Early Church 48:05 Head Coverings and Women's Roles in Church Resources: tomwadsworth.com Tom Wadsworth on Youtube --- 🏠 LEARN HOW TO MAKE DISCIPLES FOR JESUS, IN AND THROUGH YOUR HOME: 1kh.org --- Hi, welcome to the 1000 Houses Podcast!

    How Christian Dads Can "Build An Ark" To Prep For Emergencies (Even While They Trust In God)

    Should every father be a prepper? Or should we just trust in God and "not care"? Jeremy Pryor and his wife April discuss this topic, which he writes about in his new book, The Ruling Household. Jeremy reads a section from one of the book's chapters, then discusses how to actually balance this tension that we have to hold as Christians, between being wise and preparing (even for generosity's sake) and trusting in God. There are a few steps, that if you break them down over the next 3, 5, or even 10+ years, will set your family up not only to survive a cataclysmic event, but to thrive and be generous with your neighbours. In this episode, we talk about: 1:24 Every father, a prepper (from Jeremy's new book) 5:11 How to "build an ark" to prep for contingencies 14:15 The tension between preparing and trusting God 20:35 Assumption of stability has undermined the multigenerational family 23:36 The point is generosity 26:04 Turn it into an annual project with the kids Resources: The Ruling Household: Every Father A Prepper? --- 🏠 LEARN HOW TO MAKE DISCIPLES FOR JESUS, IN AND THROUGH YOUR HOME: 1kh.org --- Hi, welcome to the 1000 Houses Podcast!

    Why Every Father Must Be The CEO of His Family

    Jeremy Pryor is joined by Blake Smith to discuss a chapter from Blake's upcoming book, Unicorn Family. Using real-world, startup-based experiences from business, Blake argues that fathers should be the "CEO" of the family. In today's social climate, this is a conversation people want to stop us from having...but lack of clarity and understanding in family leadership is destroying families! With so much at risk, it's worth getting uncomfortable to talk about leadership roles in a family and why a father is uniquely situated to be the one assuming the responsibility for the blessing of everyone involved. In this episode, we talk about: 1:10 Building a "Unicorn Family" with Blake Smith 5:37 Who is the Leader? Discussing a chapter from Blake's upcoming book 13:07 Are you a misogynist if you believe fathers should be the "family CEO"? 21:27 Relational tension when there's no clear leader 32:18 Why defining "family" is so important to organizational and leadership structure in the home 36:27 Why one person must feel more responsible than the rest 40:26 Are males inherently designed to be the leader of the family? 47:11 Gender is a family construct, not a social construct Resources Mentioned: Blake Smith on LinkedIn Blake's Newsletter --- 🏠 LEARN HOW TO MAKE DISCIPLES FOR JESUS, IN AND THROUGH YOUR HOME: 1kh.org --- Hi, welcome to the 1000 Houses Podcast!
