    LTWT 008: How Should I Feel about My Feelings?

    “As part of demonstrating God’s compassion to people, it’s going to be necessary to be able to express emotions and not suppress them.”
    Enjoy this conversation with Sierra Bergman and Dr. Angela Priester, a clinical psychologist and a Christian minister, as they discuss how we should feel about our feelings from the Word’s perspective. Are certain emotions good or bad? How should we approach mental health issues as believers? Is there help in the Word if we’re feeling overwhelmed by our emotions? Delve into this episode to find answers to all of these questions and more.

    LTWT 007: Mental Health

    LTWT 007: Mental Health

    “We talk about people having physical ailments all the time, and we don’t judge people for that. We expect that they’ll get the help that they need. So when it comes to mental health, why is that different from physical health in the way that we approach it?” 
    Join Sierra Bergman as she interviews Priscilla McKie about her background as a social worker, her decision to train as a minister, and what the Word of God has to say about the topic of mental health. In this interview, Priscilla also shows the importance of addressing some of the misconceptions about mental health in the Christian community, and how we, as believers, can support one another and grow in this category of life. Do you want to see how to approach mental health from a Biblical perspective? Tune in!

    LTWT 006: Trusting God

    LTWT 006: Trusting God

    “Throughout the Word, God talks about Who He is and what He wants people to know about Him. In Jeremiah, He says I want you to know and understand that I am the Lord, that I exercise lovingkindness and judgment and righteousness. That’s what He wants us to know about Him, that it’s the goodness of God that leadeth men to repentance. In Exodus, it talks about how He is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in love and faithfulness and forgives iniquities and transgression. Those are things that He reveals about Himself that we can know about Him.”
    Join podcast interviewer Hunter Mullins and Rev. Tom Mullins as they discuss why we can completely trust in God as His children. Rev. Mullins expounds on many of the qualities of our heavenly Father, quoting straight from the Scriptures. He explains how these attributes, along with God’s promises to us in His Word, show that God is a trustworthy heavenly Father.

    LTWT 005: God Wants the Best for You

    LTWT 005: God Wants the Best for You

    “If you want to help somebody, if you want to inspire somebody, if you want to reach somebody and lift them up to God’s way of life...you have to give them the Word. You have to know the Word, and as you write [music], just keep that in mind, that God is your sufficiency. God is the One that’s helping you. He will not hide anything good from you when you’re writing a song because He wants people to be reached even more than you do.”
    Enjoy this conversation with Christian musician Bob Stanley and Lauren Boner as Bob expands on his background and inspiration for writing godly music. Also in this episode, Bob gives several special performances, singing some of his classic songs, as well as a new song entitled “Abiding in the Truth of God’s Word.”

    LTWT 004: Reaching Others Where They’re At

    LTWT 004: Reaching Others Where They’re At

    “It’s so important to approach people with an earnest desire to understand them, where they’re coming from, to be able to set our beliefs aside—maybe not cast them away—but set them aside for a moment and genuinely listen, to invest in people without expecting something back. We’re getting at the heart of the love of God.”
    Join Adam Barlow and Hunter Mullins as they discuss practically what it means to reach people right where they are in order to help them with the Word of God. They also discuss records from the Bible where this concept is shown, specifically in the life of Jesus Christ. How can Christians like us be more understanding and be more loving toward people? Listen to this episode to find out.

    LTWT 003: Overcoming Evil with Good

    LTWT 003: Overcoming Evil with Good

    “We have to realize that light does dispel darkness and that we do make a difference. Your life does make a difference. Sometimes it doesn’t seem that way, that you don’t get awards for living the Word. You go home after a hard day of work, and you’ve got to take care of your family, and it can sometimes seem a little bit thankless. And it’s like, ‘What is the difference? Is this really making a difference?’ Absolutely, yes, it is making a huge, spiritual difference in the whole climate.”
    Rev. Bryan Mittler, Rev. Chandler Greene, and podcast interviewer Edgar Mendoza talk about many facets of the subject “overcoming evil with good.” This interview covers the importance of understanding God’s goodness and bringing it into life’s situations. We invite you to spend time with these men in this special roundtable episode as they share the Word and their perspectives on the subject.
