CO-llege Talk Podcast

This week on COllege talk Schyler, Kris and Coley discuss the benefits and costs of social media's effect on society and how as Christians we can navigate social media in a way the glorifies Christ.

In the wake of the recent news on Ravi Zacharias; Kris, Coley, Schyler and Kyle discuss how to process "hereos" or "leaders" falling into deeply grievous sin. How to we as followers of Christ handle the news of people we look up to in the faith being exposed for hidden sin? How does God's word speak directly into this sad reality? In the midst of the hurt, where is hope found? We hope you find it helpful, enjoy!

Kris, Schyler, and Coley are joined by Dr. Beau Hughes, pastor at the Village Church Denton, to talk about the holy trinity. All throughout scripture, God reveals himself as one in essence yet three in persons, which has brought about much beauty and mystery for the Christian. What are the primary roles of the Trinity? Why is the Trinity so significant to knowing God? What are the potential dangers of not believing in the Trinity? All this and so much more, we hope you enjoy!

Kris, Schyler, and Kyle are joined by Brad Welker, Pastor at the Village Church Denton, to discuss how understanding literary genres is helpful to reading and understanding the word of God in its proper context. There is large opportunity to misunderstand a rap song if you tried to read it as country lyrics, similar could be said about reading the book of Romans the same way we read the Psalms. Brad along with the staff help us to navigate that truth. We hope you enjoy!

Kris, Mike, Coley and Schyler have a much needed discussion about what it means to embrace failure. Society defines failure in a myriad of different ways which produce a wide variety of responses when it comes to failure. How does the bible define failure? How does failure produce good or how can we embrace it well in its proper context? We hope this is helpful, enjoy!

Kris, Coley, Schyler and Kyle help give biblical context for what it means to be a part of the local church. Many christians today, especially young christians, are frankly not a part of the local church beyond gathering on Sunday. Even then, most are not convinced of its importance, value, and function mapped out by the word of God. In this podcast you'll learn how to choose a healthy local church, why it is so vital, the benefits of having one vs. the dangers of not, and much more. Enjoy, share, like, subscribe!

Kris, Coley, and Schyler are joined by the newest member of Campus Outreach Dallas/FW, Kyle Aaron, to talk about what true repentance is. What exactly is repentance and how does the bible define it? What role does confession have in repentance? How does worldly guilt differ from godly sorrow? What are practical ways to walk in repentance? We hope you enjoy!

Kris, Coley, Mike and Schyler have a much-needed discussion about the cultures perception of New Year's resolutions. What are we really looking for in New Year's resolutions? How competent are we in setting/striving towards goals? Is there a danger for us to look toward the New Year for salvation? All this and so much more, we hope you enjoy!

Kris, Coley and Schyler are joined by Chad Farmer, pastor and church planter of Mustard Seed Christian Church in Tokyo, Japan to discuss the call for all Christ followers to make disciples. In Japan, under 1% of the population would identify as a Christian or let alone even know a Christ follower. What does it look like to know Jesus and make Him known in a context so different from one that is culturally Christian? What would compel someone to move to an unreached nation to make disciples there? How can I use my years in college to prepare myself for lifelong disciple-making no matter where I land post-grad?
