  1. The Gospel According to Job 3

    The Gospel According to Job 3

    The Gospel According to Job 3  Welcome to Gospel Rant! Dr. Bill is going to suggest that we have misunderstood  how we are to ‘win’ in our Christian walk. It is not about the Retributive Principle at all. In fact, the clue is found all the way back in Genesis. Here’s one very provocative quote in this show. “Faith says that God’s wisdom is such that there is a possibility that going through hell could be part of an elaborate loving gift of God to one he wants to reward.” Both wildly troubling and comforting at the same time. It just may answer a few of your many questions to God. Or…It may give you a few more.

    The Gospel According to Job 1

    The Gospel According to Job 1 Welcome to Gospel Rant! The book of job has unnerved, frightened and confused Christians for millennia. I wonder, maybe, just maybe, if we get the core message? You just may be surprised. We’ll talk about it. Welcome to Gospel Rant Podcast and DrBillSenyard YouTube channel. I am your host, Dr. Bill Senyard. We are free wherever you get good podcasts.

Here's a couple of teasers that you may find interesting—and maybe never heard before. So many of us think that Job is about the dangers of challenging and questioning God. And when you do, you need to repent very quickly. While that’s a clean morality message, it is not the message of Job. Job never officially repents—that is he does not use the Hebrew word for repent. Instead, he says, “I revoke (??) and I find comfort in ashes and dust.” Interesting and not what is usually taught. Second, God said at the end (Job 42:7) that Job had spoken what is right. So what did Job have to repent of? Maybe, in spite of what we’ve all been told, the book isn’t about ‘repentance.’ Curious. Third, Chapter 28 appears to have been shoved right into the middle of one of Job’s long tirades, but it does not appear to belong there. What’s going on? Curious? Welcome to our program.

  4. The Church the Holy Spirit Built! #7

    The Church the Holy Spirit Built! #7

    This is Part 7 of our series: The Church the Holy Spirit Built. Luke continues to highlight the powerful themes shaping this early movement—based on legitimate eyewitness accounts. There was a surprising unity, a deep sense of shared purpose, radical generosity, and undeniable power. So what was going on? If I had to sum it up for Theophilus, I’d simply say: “…and much grace was upon them all.” (Acts 4:33, NIV) In context, charis refers to the experienced favor of God—poured out over the gathered believers. This wasn’t just about agreeing with a confession of faith. They felt it. They knew it. God was irrationally for them. He actually liked them—as they were. Imagine that. Imagine what it would feel like to live in the confidence of God's unearned, unstoppable favor. It was visible. It was powerful. It was megale—great. Something unmistakably special. Something enviable. And honestly... Don’t we need that today? 👉 Like 👉 Share 👉 Comment 👉 Subscribe Your engagement helps spread this message.

    The Church the Holy Spirit Built! #6

    Remember how this whole series began?Luke is writing to Theophilus—likely to explain what got into those original disciples of Jesus… and what kept driving the movement over the next 30 years, transforming it into an international phenomenon unlike anything the world had ever seen. And now, Luke turns up the volume even more. 👉 Like👉 Share👉 Comment👉 Subscribe Your interaction helps this message reach more people!

    The Church the Holy Spirit Built! #5

    This is Part 5 of our series: The Church the Holy Spirit Built. I’m continually amazed by the transformation of Peter. Who told him he could heal a crippled man?What if it hadn’t worked?What if he became a public joke?Wouldn’t it have been safer—and more practical—to just start a GoFundMe for the guy? And yet, there he is. Bold. Unfiltered. Taking a wild, Spirit-led risk.Honestly, don’t you imagine Peter was just as shocked as everyone else?I can almost see John turning to him, eyebrows raised, thinking:“What just happened?! Peter… what are you doing?” So why now? Why this place? Why this man? Because Jesus was scripting something far bigger.The physical healing was incredible, yes—but it was just the setup.The real miracle—the one that changes everything—was still to come.And with everyone’s attention locked in, Jesus speaks... through Peter. 👉 Like👉 Share👉 Comment👉 Subscribe Your interaction helps this message reach more people.

    The Church the Holy Spirit Built! #4

    This is Part 4 of our series: The Church the Holy Spirit Built. What we see here is the visible DNA of Jesus and His Spirit—actively moving through and motivating ordinary people. Because of His presence, these regular folks—people just like us—began to show signs of something radically new: A deep and undeniable devotion to the gospel (proskateresis)—a prioritization that hadn’t been there before. A surprising unity of thought, intention, purpose, and vision (homothumadon)—in stark contrast to the divisiveness so common in any group. A bold, sometimes messy, but genuine other-oriented compassion that led them to meet the needs of others above their own (diamerizo). Sure, people can show some of this on their own—plenty of non-believers do. But Luke is pointing to something more. This movement was unmistakable, public, noticed. It wasn’t perfect, but it was powerful. Ask any pastor today—they’d agree: This was special. So here’s the question:Church—why don’t we expect this today? 👉 Like👉 Share👉 Comment👉 Subscribe Your interaction helps this message reach more people.

    Before the Couch PODCAST 3

    This episode features Chapter 4 of my new book, Before the Couch—specifically Tip #3: “You Can’t Do It!” Before the Couch is now available on Amazon, Kindle, and Audible. It’s not another “try harder” marriage book—the kind you’ve probably already read if your marriage has been struggling. And honestly, how’s that worked out so far? This book takes a different approach—one that has already helped many Christian couples who were on the brink of calling a divorce lawyer. You might be wondering, “Why another marriage book?” Fair question. The truth is, most of us have been asking the wrong question about marriage. In Before the Couch, I help couples wrestle with a better one—an approach that opens doors where nothing else has worked. This week’s episode features the chapter titled “Your Relationship Is Only Mostly Dead.” (Yes, think Princess Bride.) You can listen right now on both the podcast and YouTube. 👉 Like👉 Share👉 Comment👉 Subscribe Your engagement helps spread this message further!I’d love to hear your feedback—email me anytime at Bill@gospel-app.com.
