  • Why does God Allow Evil

    Although I agree it with what you are saying here, in the context of our current culture where so many Christians remain silent on the evils happening in Gaza, would have been more intellectually relevant to use at least one current example. By only using holocaust examples you don’t challenge current professing Christians who refuse to acknowledge and accept the genocide happening there. It’s because we are Christians that we acknowledge this evil by whoever and wherever it occurs.

  • John 7:17

    Not a podcast of YHWH/the Father/God, beware of the bread you are consuming especially in these last times when the false prophets are in the world.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Gospel Hope for Gen Z Ministry
Q: How do you communicate to young people involved in parachurch ministries that they need the church?
Derek Rishmawy says leaders should explain from the beginning that campus ministries do not replace the church, pointing to the sacraments, intergenerational fellowship, and the wider body of Christ. He also recommends discussing church connection with partner parachurch ministries.
Gospel Hope for Gen Z Ministry
Q: How do you invite Gen Z to discipleship in a way that targets fear, anxiety, and isolation?
The panel recommends meeting young people where they are while bringing them into local church community through repeated invitations, follow-up, hospitality, and peer-to-peer invitations. Churches should be prepared to disciple new believers who may have little biblical or theological background.
The Impact of Influencers on the Church
Q: How would somebody know that it's time to close down their social media accounts and turn off the podcasts?
The panel suggests noticing whether social media encourages foolish behavior, undermines boundaries, feeds distraction, or harms relationships and responsibilities. Wifler recommends taking a 30-day break and evaluating how mood, sleep, anxiety, and conversations change.
The Impact of Influencers on the Church
Q: I can't figure out why Christians have such a default trust in podcasters as authorities in comparison to pastors.
The panel says online voices are easy to choose and leave, and sharing personal stories can create a sense of intimacy. That connection can feel compelling, but it is not the same as the costly commitment and mutual care of a local church.
Hope and Help for the Doubting and Deconstructing
Q: What is disenculturation and why is it important for believers today?
Disenculturation is the process of distinguishing essential biblical truths from cultural expressions, and learning to evaluate personal and communal practices through Scripture, church history, and the global church to avoid deconstructing faith due to cultural baggage.
