We are living in the middle of the largest religious shift in American history - and it's away from the Church. In this episode, Andrew talks with Ian Harber about deconstruction. More specifically, how to walk with someone who is going through deconstruction. Ian, who has gone through a deconstruction process himself, makes the point that at the end of deconstruction, there is always reconstruction. Reconstruction can look like a closer walk with Jesus, or it can look like leaving the faith altogether - or anywhere in between. Ian is author of the new book, Walking Through Deconstruction. He serves as Director of Communications and Marketing for Mere Orthodoxy. He also writes regularly about faith and life in a post-Christian age at his Substack, Back Again. His articles have been featured at The Gospel Coalition and Mere Orthodoxy. He and his family live in Denton, Texas and are members at The Village Church Denton.

Jesus called all believers to make disciples (check Matthew 28:18-20). In the United States in 2025, it is easy to feel like we don't have time to do ministry, or our schedules are too full to give ourselves away to others. In this episode, we discuss two big shifts that can help you make disciples for the rest of your life.

The post #228 – My Raw and Real Church Experience That Changed Everything appeared first on Into the Harvest

Our western Church culture has a habit of going a mile wide and an inch deep. This causes big problems - on a lot of levels - but especially when behavior modification and church attendance do nothing to help our deeper issues. In this episode, John talks with Dr. Marcus Warner about how to bring freedom to the Body of Christ, and how to work toward spiritual and emotional maturity.

Dr. Marcus Warner has served as president of Deeper Walk International since 2006. Marcus earned three degrees from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School – M.Div., Th.M. Old Testament, and D.Min. He has written 16 books on topics ranging from brain science to spiritual warfare including Rare Leadership, The 4 Habits of Joy-Filled Marriages, and Understanding the Wounded Heart. Marcus is a conference speaker and who works with both ministry and corporate groups around the world. A Bible teacher at heart, Marcus has taught Old Testament and Theology as well as serving as a senior pastor for seven years. His passion is taking complex topics and making them practical and accessible for everyone.

We have a new theme on the show for 2025—the Church! In this episode, Andrew and John dive into the book of Acts to find out what biblical church is, if Acts is descriptive or prescriptive, and why it matters for us in modern times.

The post #226 – Should the Church Today Look Like It Did in Acts? appeared first on Into the Harvest

Happy New Year! We can't believe 2025 is here, and we are so excited to share where Into The Harvest is going this year. We spent December highlighting some of our most popular episodes of 2024, and we thought we'd take this time to introduce some of our plans for 2025. One thing we will remain focused on is keeping the main thing the main thing. Spoiler alert: the main thing is Jesus. We're looking forward to 2025, and can't wait to keep walking alongside you as you make disciples of our King.
