Removing Barriers

Episode 28

In this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast DW joined us as we recalled encounters we've had evangelizing door-to-door. DW shared an encounter with a pastor who did not believe in the deity of Christ. MCG shared an encounter with a woman who burst into tears as his message of repentance reminded her of her grandma’s message of repentance. Jay recounts an adult man whose mother prevented him from hearing the gospel.

The crowning encounter was that of Andrew, who made a decision to trust Jesus Christ as his Lord and personal savior right at his front door.

Give this episode a listen and enjoy as we taken you down memory lane with Stories from the Door.

Episode 27

BLM - 4

Patrisse Cullors, a founder of Black Lives Matter made it clear in an interview that she and Alicia Garza, another founder of the movement, are trained Marxists. Who was Karl Marx? What exactly is Marxism? Are Communism and Marxism the same thing? What does modern day cultural Marxism look like when compared to classical Marxism? Alex and DW join us in this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast as we explore answers to all these questions and more.

We also discussed whether Marxism is biblical, and if it can work perfectly in a sin-torn world. We end the the episode with a comparison between Marx's teaching and that of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ — a clear presentation of the gospel was given.

Episode 26

Could the shooting of Jacob Blake have been prevented if the officers had disengaged? On the other hand, would the situation have played out differently had Jacob complied? In this episode of the Removing Barriers, we discuss the circumstances surrounding the shooting of Jacob Blake and the values that compliance can buy a person when dealing with the police.

We also looked at other officer shooting incidents and discuss whether compliance would have changed the outcome.

Is compliance to law enforcement officers a bad thing? Does it change the outcome of the situation? Listen to this episode as we discuss Jacob Blake and the Value of Compliance. We ended the episode with the inevitable submission and compliance to Jesus Christ. You can either submit to him to as savior today or submit and comply to his lordship as a judge later. Which will it be?

Episode 25

Series: How Were Your Barriers Removed - 4

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 declares “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.”

If there was ever a person who epitomized the phrase “And such were some of you” it would be DW. DW was a fornicator and an enemy of God before he was “washed” and “justified” when he came to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.

DW is a former Marine, a father, and a husband. He has a desire to serve the Lord and evangelize the lost. He regularly shares the gospel of Jesus Christ, the same gospel that change his life, and seeks opportunities to do so.

Listen as DW shares his barriers to salvation, how he was confronted with the deity of Christ, and how his barriers were finally removed.

Series: Sin and Personal Responsibility - 3 of 3

The concept of the age of accountability has been a source of contention in Christendom for a long time. What is its meaning, and where did the term even come from? Is the concept of the age of accountability important? Is it biblical? At what point do we become personally responsible for our sins? In this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast titled the Age of Accountability, we set out to answer those questions. This is the third and final part of the series we are calling Sin and Personal Responsibility.

DW continues with us in this episode to offer his insight.

We concluded the episode with a clear presentation of the saving gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Episode 21

The United States of America is in the middle of the aftermath of drastic cultural change. I believe 2020 was the climax that encapsulated this cultural change. In this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast, we look back at 2020 and look at some of the major happenings and put them in perspective of scripture.

We discussed the death of NBA great, Kobe Bryant, the impeachment of President Donald Trump, COVID-19, Black Lives Matter, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Policing. We further discussed the presidential election, the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and the political divide in the country.

We ended the episode with call to be prepared come what may by trusting Jesus as Lord and personal saviour.

Episode 19

The subject of “interracial” marriage has been a sore thumb in Christendom for many years now. Is the Bible silent in this area? Is it unbiblical or sinful for people of different ethnicities to marry? We sat down with Sam and Allissa to discuss their unique perspectives on the issue. 

Colloquially, Sam is black and Allissa is white. They have been married for a number of years now and have 3 children. Learn more about their “interracial” marriage, their views on Loving v.s. Virginia, and their opinion on the past BJU rule against interracial dating. 

We ended the episode both with a plea for the church to be at the forefront of these issues and with the a presentation of the gospel — the same gospel that removes all racial issues and places us all united at the foot of the cross.

**There are some audio quality issues in this episode, but the content is good so I wanted to put it out there anyway.
