    Episode 82: 2024 Advent Is Here!

    "The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call Him Immanuel" (which means "God with us") --Matthew 1:23 This is one of the best seasons of the year! A time to focus on the meaning and purpose of Christ’s birth. With the onset of the Advent season (December 1- 24, 2024), as our typical focus during this time of the year, we are providing this resource for all our brothers and sisters embarking on Advent for the first time! This brings us great joy that you will discover Emmanuel in a personal way as you journey through this Advent season. From a time of consecration to an increased time spent in God’s Word, prayer and worship, Advent gives us the avenue to renew our minds and allow our minds to dwell on the incredible gift of salvation through Jesus Christ- who is the source of life and all eternal gifts now and everlasting. In this episode, Drs. Johnson and Feyi Obamehinti discuss the importance of Advent and its essence for Christ's followers. Advent is a great time for renewal, rejuvenation, recalibration, restoration and revival. We are blessed and honored to serve you and love hearing from you! Our last episode indicate Minority Homeschoolers of Texas is still active through the help of one of our homeschool leaders. If you are a homeschooling family that need information and support, take a listen for how you can connect with fellow homeschooling families. As followers of Christ, this is not the time to coast, but a time to press into the heart of God for our nation and leaders. As it is in heaven, is exactly what we want in our nation- "Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD" (Psalm 33:12a). Prayer is what will accomplish this as we pray God's will for our nation and leaders. The body of Christ has a high calling that is like no other. Despite the state of the church as a whole (body of Christ), let us keep at the forefront of our hearts that we are Christ's ambassadors- 1 Peter 2:9 is a guidepost to see where we are and how we are living to glorify God. "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, that ye should shew forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvelous light."

    Episode 81: Mysteries of God's Kingdom

    This cycle of the American election is over. Now what's next? What does the wave all mean? These are the last days and God's people have a work to accomplish in this era for His kingdom. As followers of Christ, everything we live for flows from the lenses of eternity and God's infallible Word.  Right now, followers of Christ have one of the greatest calls to live out for God's glory sake. It will require a commitment and unshakable faith in God.  In this episode 81, Drs. Johnson and Feyi Obamehinti answer questions and discuss the mysteries of God's Kingdom as it relates to the elections and what's next. God has demonstrated His mercy and grace to a nation as a template for His people- the Body of Christ.  Our understanding of His mercy and grace lived out will be the vehicle God uses for a world that needs a Savior-Jesus Christ. From growing up as Jesus hands and feet, to living in our identities as the ambassadors of Christ- God is calling His people to arise, be light and be salt. As God's people, will we heed His call or choose the ways of the world? We have a choice. "Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever; wisdom and power are His. He changes times and seasons; He deposes kings and raises up others. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning. He reveals deep and hidden things; He knows what lies in darkness, and light dwells with Him." (Daniel 2: 20-22). --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/oasisofhopedrsobamehinti/support

    Episode 80: The Solid Ground

    This year's State of the Bible shows scripture (Bible) disengagement at its lowest in 14 years! The Word of God presents Christians with a solid ground to stand on in a time of "sinking sand" in our culture. From this year's annual state of the Bible by the American Bible Society, we see a decline in scripture engagement but see an increasing transformation for young adults- the polls from young adults states that the Bible has had a transformative effect on their lives. That is a testament to the power of transformation that comes from God's infallible Word. The scriptures are alive in its potency to change and transform people. As followers of Christ, everything we do is through the lenses of eternity, and the Bible provides us with answers, guidance and wisdom in navigating life- from election decisions to parenting decisions. To kick off Season 5 of Oasis of Hope Podcast, Drs. Johnson and Feyi Obamehinti answer three of your questions from election decisions to family decisions for parents. In this episode, they encourage Christians to study the Word of God for yourselves. The times we live in, calls for Christians to be Bereans (Acts 17:11), search the Bible for those truth gems that will anchor you against the winds of culture. The Word of God is our solid ground!

It cuts all the way through, to where soul and spirit meet, to where joints and marrow come together. It judges the desires and thoughts of the heart" (Hebrews 4:12). --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/oasisofhopedrsobamehinti/support

    Episode 79: The Table of Communion

    Commemorating the Last Supper Jesus Christ had with His twelve disciples is a holy observation by millions of Christians around the world. As scriptures instruct, commemorating this special  time is done with carefulness and intentionality. In 2 Corinthians 13:5 (Examine your selves to see whether you are in the faith; test your selves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?), there are elements of self-reflection, self-awareness and self- regulation to ensure the Lord’s Supper is taken with deep reverence by followers of Christ. Some Christians, also know this special time as the Eucharist, the Lord’s Table, Table of Communion or Holy Communion. The Table of Communion symbolizes Jesus ultimate sacrifice    on the cross to redeem humanity from eternal separation from God. Communion is a two-way street-our communion with God and communion with each other. Before taking a listen to this podcast, we encourage you to gather your communion elements (crackers and juice) and join into take communion at the end of the podcast. As followers of Christ, everything we do is through the lenses of eternity, and elections are not different. In this episode, Drs. Johnson and Feyi Obamehinti encourage Christians to approach these upcoming elections with carefulness and do their homework. Some things for Christians to think about as they prepare themselves are: (1) Pray for everyone (2 Chronicles 7:14, Proverb 14:34, 1 Timothy 2:1-2). (2) Respect for each other – no matter if a person is red, blue, in-between or none. (3) Refuse to hop on the hatred wagon no matter who the instigating leader is. (4) Study the candidates and determine your values, belief, conscience etc. (5) Above all else, remember we are Christ’s ambassadors foremost (salt and light). “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land” – 2 Chronicle 7:14 --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/oasisofhopedrsobamehinti/support

    Episode 78: Lessons From Olympics

    The 2024 Summer Olympics was highly watched around the world. With one sport or the other as a favorite, the Olympics is a source of inspiration for young and old alike. Congratulations to all teams from around the world, representing their countries.The USA team came back with a total of 126 medals- 40 Gold, 44 Silver and 42 Bronze! For followers of Christ, there are some lessons to glean from the Olympics. In fact, the Bible uses sports as an analogy of how Christians are to live their lives. 1 Corinthians 9:24-25, states, "Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receives the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.And every man that strive for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible." In this episode, Drs. Johnson and Feyi Obamehinti encourage followers of Christ with three key lessons from the Olympics. Walking with God requires discipline to stay deeply committed to Christ, so we can represent Christ well. It's time for followers of Christ to stand up and be counted for the Kingdom of God!

    Episode 77: State of the Church

    The last few weeks have had many heads turning about the state of the church - aka the Body of Christ. The secular world took a dive into the credibility of the church as a whole. In this episode 77 of Oasis of Hope focused on the state of the church, Drs. Johnson and Feyi Obamehinti, answer some of the key questions asked in the wake of the recent unravelings in the church. The credibility of the gospel stands and is unshaken because of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world. From a Biblical perspective, they discuss and answer the questions on abuse, culture and NDAs in the Body of Christ. Their hope and prayer is that this episode will spur more followers of Christ to stand in the gap of prayer for our communities, churches and families.  "Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil" (Matthew 6:9-13). --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/oasisofhopedrsobamehinti/support

And they offer ways for Christians to be empowered and equipped against these toxic tides with the help of the Holy Spirit. This is one episode you want to share with everyone in your network. Together the life of God in each Christian dispels these toxic tides. The kingdom of God is at hand; time for Christians to arise!
