Gifts of the Holy Spirit - Prophecy Bonus Episode

Building Bridges Not Walls

In Episode 28 of the Holy WIT Podcast we tackle the idea that the church needs to repent about how they see and respond to those in the LTGBQ community. We continue with the conversation with Wilna van Beek who is the author of When Gay Comes Home - Learning To Build Bridges. [https://www.amazon.ca/When-Gay-Comes-Home-Learning-ebook/dp/B077NL879Y] Do we trust Holy Spirit to do the work in the background while we simply love others? If we don't trust Holy Spirit then we are trying to be in control and be our own little god. If we are to really love others we first need to allow God to deal with what is in our own heart. Jesus hung out with people and in doing so those people were changed. If we represent Jesus then how do we learn to hang out with others and represent Jesus so that others are changed.

The Reality of Satan In The Past and Present

This episode is a response to the Heaven Bent Podcast - The Devil Himself [https://frequencypodcastnetwork.com/2021/04/12/s2e7-the-devil-himself/] and we talk about the reality of satan and the demonic in the here and now. Satan is not a metaphorical being but is a created being, a fallen angel.  We discuss how we know that the demonic is real as we see throughout scripture and what power satan has in our world today. Where we see the oppression of the demonic is in the lives of individuals, over groups and organizations.  We learn how deliverance is for every follower of Jesus, is a process and how freedom is lived out and maintained in community.
