Holy Wit

In this episode Cam and Stephanie Harris talk about whether or not we are to judge.  

Looking at the scripture 1 Corinthians 5 about the man who was sleeping with his fathers wife and the response of the fellowship.  The apostle Paul's taught about how to deal with someone who is in your spiritual community and being unrepentant.   He talks about not being present and passing judgement on it.

We delve into the improper teaching that is in many churches that we are not to judge.  We in fact are to judge the actions of others in spiritual community but are not to judge those outside of our spiritual community.

We finish off with talking about why we tend to avoid those conversations with those individuals and how it may reveal something in us that God needs to deal with.

In this episode Stephanie makes the statement that "the everybody wins ideology has no ground". 

We talk about this quote from Dr Stuart Anderson that is found in the End of Churchianity film.

"The church has adjusted our theological stances to follow after the changes in society. The church wanted to be included and so we have constantly incrementally changed our stance on a whole range of social values and issues. 

But the end result of that has been that well we might be socially included we are now spiritually excluded. That we are socially relevant but spiritually irrelevant."

God has set the standard that we are to live by and our responsibility is to maintain that standard.  Learn what it means to practice our gifts in community so that we have support and encouragement to learn and grow.

In this episode Cam and Stephanie discuss pseudo community and talk about what concessions are usually made to have pseudo community? 

When we live in denial and put a mask on to be accepted then we believe that we have to continually live in a false identity to be accepted. To truly live as an authentic person we need to risk being truly known by others in a safe community. When each person lives this way it will lead to authentic community. 

Looking at the 12 disciples we consider their relationships with each other. If Peter was part of a modern day small group he would probably have to go to sensitivity training and conflict resolution. As we wrap up we ask the question, what can we apply to our lives and relationships?

In this episode we discuss how to deal with divisive people in community based on what we learn out of Titus 3:9-11

9But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless. 10Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them. 11You may be sure that such people are warped and sinful; they are self-condemned.

Proverbs 19:11
A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.

We discuss which is more offensive, unloving and unkind; to point out to a person something that is offensive to God or staying silent because we don't know how to bring it up?

Boundaries are healthy but if we are not careful it can become a tool for creating divisiveness in relationships.

In this episode we talk about what is is to be a safe person. We look at what it means to be unsafe and how we are all unsafe at one level or another.

What does it look like to remove your mask and become and authentic person with yourself and others? Do you present yourself as perfect like we see on social media?

We can walk with others and with God and learn to hear from God for ourselves and others and allow Him to heal and restore those areas in our lives that make us unsafe.

This episode is part 2 of Hindsight is 20/20. We answer the question of "God why did you allow this?" with better questions based on where we are at and what we have gone through recently. We also answer the question of "how do we live differently after the great disruption that our world has experienced this past year?".

John 1:14 in the MSG says "The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood. We saw the glory with our own eyes, the one-of-a-kind glory, like Father, like Son, Generous inside and out, true from start to finish."

Cam and Stephanie talk about what would it look like for Jesus to move into your neighborhood. Cam makes the uncomfortable statement that you are not a Christian if you are not first being discipled and second are not discipling another person.

Stephanie issues the challenge "how are you thinking about 2021 in terms of faith?

In this episode we look back at 2020 and how hindsight is 20/20. Stephanie asks the question of what happened to our defense in 2020 with the pandemic we are told is around us? If our defense is faith then did your faith grow or was it weakened this past year?

Cam and Stephanie talk about our loss of gathering in large groups and what unbelief has been revealed through this. They discuss how the scattering of the current church is a great and beautiful thing and the opportunity that it now opens up for churches everywhere in 2021.

In this episode of HOLY WIT Stephanie gets on a call with Marci Muncey and they have a conversation about the wildness of God and how that was reflected in the way of life of John the Baptist and Jesus. 

Stephanie asks what do we do now that our Christian comforts are gone and how do we reclaim our joy in the midst of this disruption?

Can a domesticated church be broken and get that wild instinct back?

Living wild from our instincts is really about trusting God in all that He is doing in our lives and times.  God's love is wild and reckless for us and wants is to reflect this part of His nature and character. How can we bring the wildness into our current times of quarantine and scattering?

In this episode of HOLY WIT Cam and Stephanie continue to talk about John the Baptist. We answer the question "what does it look like to live in the desert like John the Baptist in our modern day world?"

We talk about how John called for them to repent and what does repent really mean?

Stephanie asks the question "why did John say he didn't know Jesus even though scripture tells us they were related?"

We need more John the Baptist type individuals to correct the course of the modern day church and Christian organizations. Even to the point that your church or Christian organization needs to have a John the Baptist on staff.

We wrap up with the example of how to call others up into their identity instead of calling them out.

 In this episode Stephanie compares Moses to Tiger Woods.

Cam and Stephanie discuss how in the church today we have John the Baptist type individuals rising up and speaking out. Reading out of Luke 1 they talk about what was going on in the days before John the Baptist and the interesting experience of Zachariah when he is told he is going to have a son, John who would prepare the way. 

They wrap up with what it looks like to ask God for something in faith, how it is never too late for God to answer and how we should respond when He answers our prayers.
