Campbell's Soup or Progresso Soup...which soup, I mean church, I mean soup, I mean church do you prefer?

Halloween and the ghosts and goblins in the bible!

Today is my special Halloween broadcast! It's October 31st, 2020. You know, we find Evil characters all throughout the bible, even witches! Did God create evil? What about dualism-here's a topic some may not be familiar with?

The Kingdom of God- A hidden Gem

Today I mention an old friend who I used to work with many years ago when I delivered pizzas who would come in and say, "I found a hidden gem!" I use this statement to reference the Kingdom of God since Christ refers to the Kingdom as treasure hidden in a field.  Questions today are, "Is the church and the church only the kingdom, or is there more to it?" Luke definitely says, "The kingdom of God is within you." What does that infer? What are we supposed to look for and in us if we are to truly have "a hidden gem in our lives?"

Campbell's Soup or Progresso Soup...which soup, I mean church, I mean soup, I mean church do you prefer?

I use a funny analogy today regarding the choice of soups to discuss whether we should be progressing or rather remembering Alexander Campbell ideals? Really, are either of them right? Yes, Jesus is the Way, but can we restore the movement of God, or are we where we need to be today? What about great movements in the past? I mention the Boston/Crossroads/ICOC/ICC/sold-out as well as Praise and worship movements. I think I'm asking more questions than giving answers today.

The Dark Night of the Soul (DNS) - When we are SPIRITUALLY depressed and wonder where God is-will he ever abandon us?

I address a topic in this podcast I was first introduced to in the early 90's, the "dark night of the soul (DNS)." Can, does, or will God ever abandon us? Why at times do we feel as though God has left us. Are there biblical examples of God withdrawing from his people?

We choose to go to the moon!

Today's podcast is a shortened version from a sermon I delivered this morning at my local church. It's based off of Kennedy's moon speech, September 12, 1962.
