  • Interview with Laren Eells Pt. 1

    Do you believe lightning can strike twice? We interview Laren Eells about his experience of the revival in the Idaho Followers of Christ Church about the same time it happened in Oregon City.

    This is part one of a two-part interview. Laren shares some of the unique things about his branch of Followers, along with some similarities and differences from Oregon City.

    Laren is a wonderful storyteller. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did. Come back next week to hear his personal testimony.

  • Misunderstanding the Bible!

    In this episode, we talk about how to understand the Bible. What are you trying to do when you read the Bible? What are some common mistakes people make when they go to the Bible?

    Here are a couple of ways we misunderstand the Bible:

    • Mistake descriptions for prescriptions.
    • Import your own meaning into the text.
    • Proof-texting: Finding proof for your idea from a verse out of context.

      • Here are a couple of safe-guards when you read your Bible:

      • Treat it as normal communication. Try to understand the simple meaning the writer intended.
      • Location, Location, Location. Context makes all the difference.
      • Come ready to submit to what the text says, not what you want it to say.

      • It’s Who You Know!

        It's not what you know; it's who you know! Knowing people who can help or hurt you is one thing. It is another thing to know Jesus. This episode is about who you know!

      • How Do You Relate to Authority?

        We all struggle to submit to authority. Yet, the use of authority sets the One Right Church apart from others. So, in this episode we discuss what it means to have and submit to proper authority.

      • Dark Lines

        Where do you draw the lines about who is in and who is out? That is a very important question and one that most people don't think about even though they do it. In this episode, we discuss where that line is drawn and where it should be drawn.

      • Followers of Christ History

        Nothing shapes the present like the past. This week we interview Marshall Phillips about the History of the Followers of Christ. History has a way of orienting us because we didn't get here from nowhere!

      • Who is My Neighbor?

        The parable of the Good Samaritan always hits close to home. This week Mark compares what it means to him now with what it would have meant before. We hope it helps you love your neighbor.

      • Look Back at Our First Year

        2023 was our first year of podcasting. We took a pause to reflect on what God has done and what has been encouraging to us because of the podcast.

        We are going to take next week off. But we will be back with more interviews and episodes. May your Christmas and New Year be blessed by God!

      • Don’t Be a Worldly Person!

        This whole time Mark has been talking about worldliness, being a worldly person, being "of the world" in a way that has perplexed Scott. In this episode, he explains. What did he used to mean by "worldly" and how is that different from what he thinks now?
