    (50) Jeff Frazee, Doing The Hard Things, Family Growth, Sawmilling, Fishing, Salvation (SPECIAL 50th EDITION

    CELEBRATE WITH ME MY 50TH EPISODE I cannot think of an episode I have been more excited about than this Telegram Audio conversation with Jeff Frazee. It is the kind of conversations I want to have, and he is the hero of this episode because of his thoughtfulness, wisdom, and experience. He pushes me to care about the things that mater most.  This is an episode where you get a rare inside glimpse, like a fly on the wall, into our lives like never before.  This podcast is a peak into conversation I have with a few other Christ centered men, with incredible faith, and families. This was not recorded for a podcast. Its conversations we have several times a week over telegram audio messages (not live calls) and I simply asked Jeff if we could share the last three audio files we sent to each other. Thankfully he agreed! As you will be blessed to hear Jeff. Please listen to hear him.  Skip me if you will.  Jeff works in Mali, West Africa, where we met.   Jeff and Heidi have 11 children. And they are ministering in Mail, and navigating, culture, heat, Coups, homeschooling, Boarding Schools. What does it mean to be a believer in this day and age?  What does that look like?  What does that sound like? You will hear how how Jeff and Heidi minister to others across several languages, and how they raise a family in the hopes that their own children still build their own living faith in these challenging days.  Andy talks about fishing, What a mouse means to fishing gear, sawmill setup, cutting logs for his own lobster trap building etc. We also get into Salvation..... what does it mean to "be saved". the meaning of the Greek word "SOZO" It is more than being rescued at the end of life. It includes a healing and wholeness of life RIGHT NOW. CONTACT ME Will you drop me a note for my 50th Episode Anniversary? Id love to hear what these conversations make you think.  I always appreciate hearing from you.  Share, Like the podcast, it helps.  ------------------------------------------------------------------ Podcast https://anchor.fm/s/108d03c8/podcast/rss Visit www.theinvisiblehumanitarian.wordpress.com  Twitter: @InvisibleNGO Instagram: TheInvisibleHumanitarian Wordpress: www.theinvisiblehumanitarian.wordpress.com Facebook Page  https://m.facebook.com/theinvisiblehumanitarianpodcast/ Two Bird Dogs Podcast intro and exit music, with Tom Marshall,  provided by Tide & Timber, From Nova Scotia, Canada, "Light It Up And Run" Introduction and exit music for this podcast used under creative commons license and created by  Scott Holmes And BensSound

    (49) Ministry's New Struggle - How Commitment To Kingdom Things Has Changed

    What if Christianity ISNT a RELIGION, but a space we live all of life though.  Commitment....is a dirty word today. How do you build a church, a community, a fellowship when participation in so easily set aside according to the daily moods of the people we are working with?  Commitment seems to mean - saying Yes to something, until some better offer comes along that tickles our fancy more. That more interesting thing may arise two hours before, but then the Gospel things get dropped, without an apology.  It gets frustrating...But that is the life of ministry today. We have to be resilient as as kingdom workers. Not so easily burst by events and happenings. Because, THIS IS MINISTRY, always has been.  AWESOME NEWS! It Is possible that the Invisible Humanitarian Is more Global in reach, than "The Last Days Prophet" who broadcasts on Shortwave Radio 24\7 internationally.  We have some new statistics blowing our mind.    -----------------------------------  Please share this podcast.  Drop us a note, as we always enjoy hearing from you.

    (48) Ross Morisson How A Tree Stump In Cape Breton Became An Alter For Christ

    From a Tree Stump, in the highlands of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada, Ross Morrison, came out of the forests of the Highlands where he worked in forestry and silviculture, because he found Christ in the Middle of creation, while siting on a tree Stump. Blaming everyone else for his problems for years, as he suffered, wasn't happy, had many broken relationships. Then Christ made it clear to him n that tree stump, you are the problem. He wept on that stump for the next five hours.  It lead him to find Christ, His Kingdom, His Church, and a Jesus follower who is now his wife, she is names Wendy.  Walking together they grew in Christ, then considered Ministry. That was it.... They landed in Toronto, for biblical studies for 5 years. Ministering to a small mission church for five years while attending Ministry training, and soon after came to my stomping grounds, in Alberton Prince Edward Island. We meet around 2000-2001.  Ross is the Minister at Alberton Baptist Church, a thriving gospel centered church in the heart of the town. A beacon of hope and light in the region.    Appreciate Ross very much, as he is is laser focused on Christ. Has an incessant, and a never fading love for the Gospel of Christ, the Church of Jesus, and shepherding people.  He has been an encouragement to me, and i know to you also. This was Ross's first ever time on any podcast, a new experience. So If you hear this, and know Ross, reach out and give him some encouragement.   Enjoy! ----------------- ------------------ Please share this podcast.

    (47) Gordon Weatherby - Can We Even Pass On Our Faith Anymore?

    The secret studio..... at an undisclosed location, has Gordon Weatherby back In The Cockpit again.  Gordon has been on the podcast before.... in Episode (31) Gordon Weatherby - The Twice Baptized Double Dipped Preacher-man  Go back and check out that episode, as it has turned out to be one of our top listened to podcasts.  My 6.4 tall, Twice Baptized, double dipped friend and I met At Maritime Christian College, where we were both students training and earning degrees in Ministry.  Gordon sits down with us and speaks candidly, and from the heart about his struggle with where the Church is going these days.  With Coved, declining attendance in many churches, and a seeming lack of hunger for Spiritual Growth, Spiritual Practices, and the word, worship, prayer...... Where are we headed? Its a wakeup call. This problem is larger, deeper, than tinkering with methods. There is a battle for the hearts and minds of Christians.  We need to get our eyes back on the pages of scripture, and fill our minds with those truths, so it fills our thoughts and informs our hearts and actions. Tinkering with how we do a church service isn't going to fix the soul with, or without, thirst for Chrsit.  We talk about sanctification, growing into Christ likeness. etc. Sanctification is the work of the Spirit first, but also the hard work of the Christian, to follow His direction This work of progressive sanctification demonstrates how far in, our out, we are in the spiritual and Kingdom growth process and progression.   We discuss These two sermons A MUST LISTEN. Basically, they both really explain how we began the slide into such trivial depts. of faith and practice.  1. Martyn Lloyd-Jones - The Battle for the Mind (1 Peter) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQB3rqcr7dc 2. Martyn Lloyd-Jones - The Way of Sanctification (Romans) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAu0ubfB7iU&t=1514s Gordon Weatherby has been a friend for 35 years. Gordon is from a tiny fishing Island in New Brunswick. Deer Island. A 9 Mile by 3 Mile island.  Gordon and I served in churches near to each other at times, and he is now Minister of the church I grew up in.  This was recorded during the CoV19 quarantine on March 24, 2020. We were all having communication  and social interaction withdrawal. Gordon Skype in and we sat down and he told his story.  Gordon is a life long faithful Shepherd and friend. A heart as big as the world. We love you Gordon. It is a joy and privilege to call you a friend and to have you serve in our community. The challenges of ministry, and passing on the gospel.  Don't miss this conversation.  ------------------------------------ Drop us a note, as we always enjoy hearing from you.
