Four Preachers and a Podcast

Our culture can very well be characterized by atmosphere of reaction and reactivity. It is hasty and hostile, fast and furious. Is this new? What does the Bible say about this?

What does it mean to create a "culture" of unity? Is that even a thing the New Testament expects of Christians? The guys discuss this and so much more on a very special episode of Four Preachers and a Podcast, recorded in front of a live audience at The Light Network's Conference in Henderson, TN!

Our world appears to be constantly suffering from tragedies. Every time we turn on the news it’s something new. When tragedy strikes, how do we balance having a heavenly hope without having a seemingly nonchalant attitude toward the suffering of others? How can we minister to those who are experiencing tragedy near us? What are some do’s and what are some don'ts?

The guys discuss all of this and more on this episode of Four Preachers and a Podcast.

Why is it important for Christians to have a healthy understanding of God? On this episode, the guys explore four passages of Scripture — Exodus 3, 33, John 1, and 2 Corinthians 1 — passages in which God reveals himself to us.

On this episode, the guys answer a question from a listener about worship. What makes an action worship? How do we distinguish between worship and any other activity? Can someone accidentally worship?

Programming note: this is the final episode for season 1 of Four Preachers and a Podcast. After a brief break in the summer, we will return in August, the Lord willing, for season 2! Do you have episode ideas or questions for future "Can You Help?" episodes? Let us know! We would love to hear from you.

Jesus says that his disciples are to be salt and light to the world, but thinking through this reveals several principles in tension. For example, we must connect with the world in order to save it, but we must separate from the world to remain pure. How do we balance these thoughts? After discussing the tensions, the guys dive deeper into the pictures themselves (salt and light), then ask some tough questions by way of application.

How can social media be misused? How can be it used for good? The guys dive into biblical principles that should be considered (along with the principle of Christian liberty) when it comes to social media.

Encouragement isn't just fluff; it's vital to every Christian! On this episode of Four Preachers and a Podcast, the guys discuss why encouragement can be difficult and how we can create a culture of encouragement among our brothers and sisters in Christ.

The guys seek to offer a compassionate, biblically balanced answer to this week's question.

The guys enter the Challenging Sayings portion of their episodic cycle, turning their attention to the Beatitudes of Matthew 5:3-12. What does Jesus mean when he uses the term translated "blessed"? Why is it important that we understand it? Find out on season 1, episode 10 of Four Preachers and a Podcast.
