Leaving Churchianity Podcast

Episode #57 What does "total depravity" actually mean?

A quick look into our natural state which informs our love for God and the praise that He truly deserves.

Episode #56 What does it mean to "Worship" God?

What does it really mean to worship God? Is worship just singing songs on Sunday, or is it something far deeper—and far more demanding? In this episode, we strip away modern assumptions and return to the biblical meaning of worship. We explore how Scripture defines worship not as a style, atmosphere, or emotion, but as a posture of the heart expressed through obedience, submission, and allegiance. You’ll learn why worship is inseparable from truth, why sincerity alone is not enough, and how it’s possible to sing to God while actually worshiping something else. We also confront uncomfortable questions: What qualifies as worshiping a false god? How does self-worship sneak into modern spirituality and even church culture? And how can we tell the difference between honoring God and subtly reshaping Him to fit our preferences? If you’ve ever wondered whether your life truly reflects worship—or whether worship has been reduced to a moment instead of a way of living—this episode will challenge, clarify, and call you back to a biblical understanding of what it means to worship God in spirit and in truth.

Episode #54 Should Christians Celebrate Christmas? A Biblical Rebuttal

Is Christmas truly a harmless celebration of Christ—or have modern Christians adopted traditions Scripture never authorized? In this episode, I respond directly to the five most common arguments used to defend Christmas observance within Christianity. With an open Bible  we examine whether appeals to Christian liberty, the New Covenant, “redeemed pagan symbols,” and accusations of legalism actually hold up under biblical scrutiny. This is not a rant, and it’s not tradition-bashing. It’s a careful, Scripture-driven challenge to assumptions many believers have never questioned—asking whether sincerity alone is enough, or whether God still cares how He is worshiped. If you’ve ever wondered: * Does “Christian liberty” justify practices God never commanded? * Did the New Covenant abolish God’s appointed times—or redefine obedience? * Can pagan origins truly be redeemed for holy worship? * Are we honoring Christ… or simply continuing tradition? This episode is for you. Whether you celebrate Christmas, question it, or have never heard the other side of the discussion, this conversation is meant to clarify, sharpen, and call believers back to biblical discernment. 📖 Test everything. Hold fast to what is good. (1 Thessalonians 5:21)

Episode #53 How are we to "Worship" God?

Modern Christianity has drifted far from the worship God Himself established. In this episode, we go back to the Scriptures to uncover how God commands His people to worship — through His Sabbaths, Feasts, and appointed times — and why these rhythms of worship reveal His character, His covenant, and His calendar of redemption. Today's episode exposes how “Churchianity” replaced God’s appointed times with man-made traditions, and how this shift has caused believers to miss the fullness of what it means to worship “in spirit and in truth.” 🔍 In this episode, we’ll explore: * What true worship looks like according to Scripture * The prophetic purpose of the Sabbath and God’s Feasts * How Yeshua (Jesus) honored and fulfilled these holy days * The difference between Biblical worship and religious routine * Why returning to God’s appointed times revives intimacy with Him 📖 Scriptures referenced: Genesis 2:3, Leviticus 23, Isaiah 58, Matthew 5:17–19, John 4:23–24, Colossians 2:16–17 🔥 It’s time to return to the pattern God gave — not the one man invented. Let’s rediscover the beauty and rhythm of worship that aligns with the heart of the Father. #BiblicalWorship #Sabbath #FeastsOfTheLord #BackToBiblical #MessianicFaith #TruthOverTradition
