February 09, 2026Tell it to the church
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
What does Jesus mean by “tell it to the church,” and how can a congregation obey this command without turning discipline into public shaming or gossip?
How does involving the whole church—rather than only elders or preachers—change both the spirit and the effectiveness of church discipline?
What’s lost when a congregation avoids discipline out of fear of conflict, division, or losing members?
How can a church pursue discipline in a way that clearly communicates love, grief, and hope for restoration—even when repentance never comes?

February 02, 2026 When you fast . . .
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
Many Christians can quote what Jesus said about fasting, but far fewer have actually practiced it.
In this episode, we explore what happens when biblical teaching meets real-life experience.
From Jesus’ words in the Sermon on the Mount to the early church’s use of fasting in mission, leadership, and spiritual struggle, this conversation takes you inside the lessons learned—not just from Scripture, but from the journey of fasting itself.
If you’ve ever wondered why Jesus said when you fast—not if—or what spiritual benefits you might be missing, this episode invites you to listen, reflect, and perhaps take your own step toward becoming the “wise man” Jesus describes.

January 26, 2026 Why and how do you appoint deacons?
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
In this episode, we dig beneath the traditions and assumptions surrounding deacon selection and go back to the New Testament pattern.
Why were deacons appointed in the first place?
Who actually chose them? And how does Acts 6 reshape common practices like “rewarding faithfulness,” filling vacancies, or appointing men to keep families from leaving the congregation?
You’ll discover a simple, biblical framework: identify the real need, teach the qualifications, let the congregation select, and let the leaders appoint.
If your congregation is confused and frustrated with how deacons are chosen—or not chosen—this episode offers clarity, challenge, and a roadmap back to the model that worked in the first century.

January 19, 2026 Elder appreciation parties. Why and how?
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
Elders pour out time, prayer, energy, and emotional strength to shepherd God’s people—yet many serve for decades without ever hearing a heartfelt “thank you.”
In this episode, we explore why elder appreciation isn’t just polite—it’s biblical, healthy, and vital for the unity and future of the church.
You’ll hear real stories, practical ideas, and three powerful reasons every congregation should intentionally honor its shepherds.
If you want stronger leaders, a stronger church, and a spirit of peace among God’s people, this conversation will show why appreciation matters and how your church can start showing it today.

January 12, 2026 Should we start a new church?
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
Are you thinking about starting a new church?
Before taking that step, the Bible gives us sobering guidelines and surprising examples—from the chaos of Corinth to the warnings in Revelation.
In this episode, we explore the questions every Christian should ask before planting a new congregation: What’s motivating the move?
Is it prayerfully planned—or emotionally driven? And how do we know when a church is truly “meaner than Corinth or deader than Sardis”?
This conversation will challenge assumptions, sharpen discernment, and help believers make decisions rooted in Scripture rather than reaction.

January 05, 2026 Suicide Questions
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
What do you say when someone looks you in the eye—or calls you on the phone—and tells you they’re thinking of ending their life?

In this episode, I share three life-saving questions I learned decades ago, real conversations I've had with people on the edge, and biblical insights about those who died by suicide—including one hero of faith.

We’ll talk about how to respond, how to comfort the grieving, and why Jesus—not us—holds the final word about judgment.

December 29, 2025Kirby Walker and conflict management
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
What happens when a workplace conflict gets so intense that the boss finally brings in a psychologist—and why does that psychologist’s plan begin with something as simple as buying lunch?
How can a $2,000 conversation solve a problem that months of tension and frustration couldn’t fix?
And what if the key to restoring peace in an office—or a family, or a church—is hidden in one courageous step that most of us never take?
In today’s episode, you’ll hear why the employees in a Mississippi dental office burst into tears when they finally heard the path forward… and how their story reveals a leadership principle so practical—and so powerful—that it mirrors the steps Jesus outlined 2,000 years ago.
This is the story Dr. Kirby Walker told me more than a decade ago, and I’ve repeated it many times because it continues to teach, challenge, and remind us what genuine conflict resolution really requires.

Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
This is the second in a series of two episodes on gossip and conflict. If you haven't heard episode 76, start there.

Have you ever wondered why gossip spreads so easily—and why it’s so hard to stop once it starts?

What if the key to ending conflict in your church, family, or workplace is as simple as refusing to add one more stick of wood to the fire?

Imagine what could happen if every believer took a personal stand to be vaccinated against the gossip virus—starting with you and me.

Should every Christian and every church get vaccinated for the conflict virus?

The virus I’m talking about doesn’t attack the body—it infects relationships.

It spreads quietly, destroys trust, and divides churches.

Its name? Gossip.
