You listened to our first episode on Christian podcasting, and you got offended . . . How can we tell Christians to reconsider podcasting? You may not have started yet, or you may have more experience than we do. But are we arguing from our technical expertise? No. It's ...

Should you, oh Christian, start a podcast? Similar to asking, "should every Christian start a Bible study?"" Christian podcasting is booming in the Philippines. There's some encouragement that if you are a Christian, you should start your own podcast. What c...

1PointPreacher Ep. 4 - Choosing a Book to Preach
Odysee: https://odysee.com/@1PointPreacher:8/Choosing-a-Book-to-Preach:b Telegram: https://t.me/c/1239255816/19 1 Point Preacher Episode 4 Show Notes: Time to talk about text selection. You need to think through the process of deciding "what" to preach. Having the biblical conviction of preaching consecutive expository sermons, preaching through books of the Bible, there's the choice of what book to preach from beginning to end. What book am I going to preach next? We'll go through the v...

Is everyone using the same definition? What is a "parachurch"? And who needs it? Are parachurch organizations necessary for Christians? Para-church: with/alongside, church.

1PointPreacher Ep. 3 - Easy to Listen to
Odysee: https://odysee.com/@1PointPreacher:8/Easy-to-Listen-to:6 Telegram: https://t.me/c/1239255816/15 1 Point Preacher Episode 3 Show Notes: If you have listend to our preaching critiques, we'll say (if it was good) that the sermon was "easy to listen to." We don't ask "did you like it." So what do we mean by "easy to listen to"? Isn't that subjective? Mortimer J. Adler was saying that it's not fair for someone to disagree with you if they don't know what you meant. And listening is much...

C&CW Ep. 10 - Activity ≠ Maturity, pt. 3: Parachurch Organizations

But what about parachurch organizations? For over 20, I have seen parachurch activities prioritized, even by churches. "It's for the Lord." Many times these people are not in a local church. Parachurch = w...

At the last minute, I was “asked” to fill a slot in a pastor’s conference. Each preacher was preaching a segment from the same biblical book. The pastor in charge gave me his notes to preach from. Plagiarism, with permission. I didn’t use them. I did my own study. As I listened to the rest of the pas...

More attention to the expositional preaching of the word, for a balanced diet. A historical example: Convinced that the core of the Kirk should be worship, prayer and the preaching of the Word, [William Still] sought the simplification of church s...

There are many good podcasts devoted to the discipline of preaching. Why would we have our own podcast on preaching? How often do people talk about preaching? Even pastors, talking about how to improve in preaching? How much help is there for preaching the one point of the text? We have been talking about preaching for nearly a d...

"It's activity without accomplishment." —D...

Odysee: https://odysee.com/@CoffeeChristianWorldview:a/Fellowship:4 Telegram: https://t.me/c/1331568347/27 Coffee & Christian Worldview Episode 7 Show Notes: "Fellowship" is a word used and abused by Christians. What does it mean according to God's Word? Why are you using it, instead of another word? Rarely does anyone define the word according to the Scriptures. Most often, "fellowship" is used for "socializing." What is the difference between "socializing" and "fellowship"? "Use b...

Should there be such a thing as "Christian heroes"? Can we have "Christian heroes" without "hero-worship"? It's also a reminder to me not to make heroes of mortal men with feet of clay. The best of men are men at best. Far bet...

Why? Is it appropriate? Is there any place for celebrity in the Christian church? Where does a celebrity’s fame come from? Is it the renown of Hebrews 11? Is “Christian” celebrity even Christian?

You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit.
