    E334 - Enneagram or Excuse? When Personality Typing and Tests Replace Sanctification

    The Enneagram and personality tests are everywhere—even in churches. But has it become a shortcut for spiritual laziness? Are personality tools helping Christians grow—or giving them excuses to stay the same? In this episode, I discuss: - What is the "enneagram"? - Is there a differences between the enneagram and the Myers-Briggs (MBTI) personality system? - The occultic origins of the enneagram. - Should a Christian use and take personality tests like "16 Personalities"/MBTI based tests? - The potential dangers and pitfalls of using tests such as these. AND MUCH MORE!

    E333 - The Problem with Theological Triage

    Years ago, a well-known theologian and Christian author introduced the idea of "Theological Triage". While it sounds good, the premise behind this now popular thought has many deficiencies and errors. In today's episode, I walk you through the author's article and expose some of the issues. My ultimate goal for this episode is to help Christians learn how to think deeply when navigating opinions, advice, and articles that sound good to the ears but have underlying foundational issues.

    E332 - Perilous Times

    Paul, at the end of his life, gives Timothy some warnings concerning the last days. He calls these days "Perilous Times". They are filled and fraught with danger. In this message, you can hear the Concern, Confidence, and Continuing for perilous times. I pray and hope that it will be a blessing to you!

    E331 - Finding God's Man: A Biblical Approach to Pastoral Succession (Part 2)

    When a church finds itself without a pastor, it enters one of the most vulnerable seasons of its existence. Without clear Biblical guidance, churches often turn to worldly methods, corporate models, or emotional decisions to find their next pastor — and sadly, the results are, too often: division, discouragement, and decline. This podcast episode was born from a burden — a burden to see local churches follow the Spirit of God, not the wisdom of man, in finding God’s man to lead them. I pray that the episode to follow will encourage churches to trust the Scriptures fully, honor the Lord faithfully, and experience the unity and blessing that come when we follow God’s way instead of our own. This episode is all about PRACTICALITY - how to implement the Scriptural principles we discussed last week. Walk with me through 3 steps a church/pastor can take for Spirit-led succession!

    E328 - A Call To The Field Of Study

    In this two part series, I deep dive into the subject of studying God's Word. In this first part - "A Call To The Field Of Study", I want to bring attention to two darkened corners of the topic of study. There are two main issues I see when people approach the field of study that are grave errors. These mindsets/philosophies must be changed before we can ever expect our studies to be illuminated by God. Before we get to the practicality and tools of study, we must first build a solid foundation!
