Amos: Justice over empty religion

Haggai: Putting God first

In this episode of DoorWays Ministry Podcast, we step into the book of Haggai and wrestle with a timeless tension: how easily spiritual priorities drift while life stays busy. Pastor Brad McAtee joins the conversation to explore what happens when God’s people rebuild their own lives while neglecting what God asked them to build first. Through themes of obedience, leadership, nostalgia, and correction, this conversation uncovers a sobering truth—God isn’t opposed to blessing us, but He is deeply committed to being first. And often, the breakthrough we’re waiting for begins not with more effort, but with reordered priorities.

Obadiah: Pride leads to downfall

In this episode of the DoorWays Ministry Podcast, Ric Shields sits down with Dr. Phil Pattillo to unpack the powerful message of Obadiah—the shortest book in the Old Testament and one of its sharpest prophetic warnings. Together, they explore Edom’s pride, betrayal of Judah, and the danger of standing by while others suffer. From the “law of no zero” to the connection between idolatry and adultery, this conversation challenges believers to move beyond passive faith and fully surrender to God’s kingdom. Obadiah reminds us that every earthly kingdom fades, but “the kingdom shall be the Lord’s.”

Habakkuk: Living by faith in confusing times

In this episode of the DoorWays Ministry Podcast, Ric Shields sits down with Pastor Stephen Harmon to explore the powerful and deeply honest book of Habakkuk. Together, they unpack what it means to wrestle with God when life feels unfair, prayers seem unanswered, and evil appears unchecked. Through Habakkuk’s journey from complaint to worship, this conversation examines God’s sovereignty, the purpose of waiting seasons, and how faith is often formed in hardship rather than comfort. Pastor Stephen shares practical wisdom about trusting God’s timing, allowing our understanding of God to mature, and learning to worship even before circumstances change. If you’ve ever questioned God, struggled with waiting, or wondered how to trust Him in difficult seasons, this episode offers encouragement, honesty, and hope.

Nahum: God’s justice against cruelty

The book of Nahum is one of the most uncomfortable in the Bible—and maybe one of the most necessary. In this episode of the DoorWays Ministry Podcast, Ric Shields sits down with Taylor Drake to explore what happens when God’s patience gives way to justice. Together, they wrestle with difficult questions: What does it mean that God is both merciful and just? Why does Nahum offer no call to repentance? And how should we respond when evil refuses to change? This conversation doesn’t offer easy answers—but it invites us into a deeper trust in God’s character. Because the same God who judges evil is also a refuge for those who trust in Him.

Zephaniah: Judgment that leads to joy

What happens when faith becomes familiar—but no longer transformational? In this episode, Ric Shields sits down with Dr. Linda Pattillo to explore the often-overlooked book of Zephaniah. Together, they unpack a message that confronts spiritual complacency, challenges false security, and calls God’s people back to humility and active pursuit of Him. This isn’t a comfortable conversation—but it’s a necessary one. Zephaniah reminds us that God’s warnings are not rooted in anger, but in love. His desire is not to condemn, but to restore. If you’ve ever wondered whether your faith has drifted into routine, this episode invites you to listen closely, seek deeply, and rediscover what it means to truly trust God.
