Five Minute Bible Study Podcast

Greg Gay has done a lot of marriage counseling during his life in the church. He is also an evangelist of the gospel that has traveled far and wide and has seen how sin affects marriages across cultures. It's the same sin. In this episode, Greg talks about the harmful effects of porn on marriages and how to combat it.

We discuss difficult scenarios towards the end. If you are a woman married to a man who is looking at porn and is not willing to quit, you will want to listen to this segment.

In 2018 I almost drowned. I came seconds from dying, but I had two rescuers who acted quickly and saved me in the nick of time. Did God act in a supernatural way to provide my salvation that day? What can we learn from the Bible to answer this question? That's the aim of this brief podcast episode.

This is the THIRD and final part of this conversation with Noah Wall about transgenderism. Here we discuss the 6th and 7th objections that are commonly brought up in defense of transgenderism. Make yourself equipped and ready to understand and defend the truth by finishing this series. We hope that the ending also inspires you the spirit of love that this message is packaged with. Noah and Aaron affirm that they have a sincere love for the truth and trans people, but that doesn't mean rewriting the truth or telling people lies because it might make them feel better momentarily.

In PART 2 Noah and Aaron get into actual objections commonly brought up by the transgender community in defense of this ideology and lifestyle. Noah and Aaron respond to these objections systematically and thoroughly, using the scriptures where appropriate. Objections 1-5 are covered in PART 2.

Noah Wall, a close friend of the podcast, comes on to have an honest conversation about the issue of transgenderism. This is a conversation grounded in truth and reason. These are qualities most lacking in the transgender philosophy. Noah recently presented a talk "What Is Male & Female?" He takes some of the truths from this talk, and we converse about them in a more relaxed engagement of minds.

In this episode, I give three benefits to Bible reading (4:47), 15 Bible reading tips (12:25), and one Bible reading fallacy many people express (40:45).

This is the third and final podcast that is part of "The Truth About Porn" newsletter, and today’s featured episode is a guest interview with Kelan Owen of Oklahoma. I believe Kelan is 22 yrs. old. He has personal history with pornography that he speaks about openly in the first part of our conversation, but he is also involved in a very important work focused on a support group with men battling with porn.

This podcast episode is part of the 30 Days of the Truth About Porn newsletter by FMBS. Jonathan graciously agreed to come on the podcast and talk candidly about the subject as it relates to the church and how we, as a church, respond to and think about this issue when it comes to real Christians who sit next to us. Perhaps we are the very ones who struggle with this sin.

Here are five questions that I (Aaron) ask Jonathan during our podcast discussion:

1. Question: Generally, what are your first thoughts about the issue of porn and Christians in the church?

2. Question: How would you sum up the history of how we (as a brotherhood) have handled this subject?

3. Question: What is your take on the issue of porn among women in the church? Is there a need to even address women in this discussion?

4. Question: What do you think we need the most or more of (as a church) as we go about fighting Satan for sexual integrity and freedom from porn?

5. Question: If someone comes to you and confesses they have a porn problem, what do you recommend to them and what would you recommend others do?

This is a continuation of the conversation with Chance Dyer about the parallels between spiritual and physical fitness. Go back and catch PART 1 which was a discussion about what the Bible has to say in regards to physical exercise.

Chance Dyer rejoins the podcast after a long drought. We talk about exercising our bodies and how this practice teaches us so much about spiritual discipline as Paul alludes to several places in scripture (1 Tim. 4:7-8). And maybe you haven't considered how many times Paul alludes to athletics and exercise in his epistles. In this PART 1, we go through all the passages that discuss or allude physical exercise, before we start drawing practical parallels to spiritual discipline in the follow-up episode.
