    How important is baptism?

    Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie It’s a question people have debated for centuries—but what happens when we set aside traditions and simply follow the biblical evidence?  Scripture connects baptism with forgiveness, salvation, entering Christ, receiving new life, and becoming part of His body.  In this episode, we examine five passages that directly connect baptism with salvation and ask a challenging question: Can we find a single passage where salvation comes before baptism?  The answer may cause you to look at baptism—and your own response to Jesus—very differently.

    Fleecy Clouds, Chapter 3, Steenson Hollow

    Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie Sometimes we don’t realize we’re living a precious moment until it becomes a memory.  A little girl, a family picnic, a lake, a quilt on the grass, baloney sandwiches, and a daddy holding his daughter’s hand—nothing extraordinary, yet everything extraordinary.  It was the first and last time they ever saw the other side of the lake.  What if some of the moments you’re living right now are more precious than you realize?  As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

    Blameless: why good repenters make great leaders

    Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie What if “blameless” doesn’t mean perfect—and the real qualification for spiritual leadership (and every follower of Jesus) is something far more uncomfortable?  In a world where everyone sins, how can elders, deacons, and ordinary Christians be called to live above reproach?  This episode digs into the biblical meaning of blamelessness, the power of honest confession, and why a good repenter may be the most trustworthy person in the room.

    When to search for a new preacher

    Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie Could your congregation hurt its next preacher by starting the search too soon? What if the most important part of choosing a new preacher isn't finding him—but saying goodbye to the old one? Why do so many churches struggle with a new preacher, even when they've chosen an excellent man? What does the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus teach us about changing preachers?

    How should members leave a church?

    Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie Leaving a church is one of the most emotional transitions Christians face, yet few of us have ever been taught how to do it well.  In this episode, I share painful examples of departures that damaged congregations, biblical principles that point to a better way, and practical ideas for leaving with grace, gratitude, and peace.  Whether you're moving across the country, changing congregations, or helping someone through a transition, this conversation may change the way you think about saying goodbye.  After all, often the best way to begin well somewhere new is to end well where you are.

    A new preacher won't fix it

    Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie Are you aware that many Christians think the next preacher will be the answer to fixing all the problems in the church?  He begins. The sermons are inspiring, enthusiasm is high, and expectations soar.  But before long, disappointment often sets in.  Why does that happen so consistently?  In this episode, we explore a biblical principle that's both challenging and liberating: Jesus never intended one person to carry the church.  Discover why healthy churches grow when every member embraces their God-given role—and how that single mustard seed of truth can transform the way you view your congregation.

    Special time with grandchildren

    Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie A conversation in 1988 planted a mustard seed that blessed our family.  As a result of a story told by Grover Hastings, Gail and I’ve taken each grandchild on a special trip when they turned twelve years old.  Every destination, every restaurant choice, every adventure revealed something unique about that grandchild—and taught us lessons we never expected to learn.  In this episode, I'll tell the story of these unforgettable trips, the rule inspired by a request to visit Jerusalem, and why some of our family's most treasured memories began with one simple idea from a friend.
