Salty Dogs Christian Podcast

This episode serves a dual purpose. We are 1) updating our very first episode with this recording so that up front people get a taste of what the podcast becomes, and 2) publishing this as Season 3 Episode 7. We've grown over time, and are going into our 3rd year of podcasting. Things have changed a little bit! Hopefully this gives you a little more insight into who we are and where we're at in our walk currently. The truth is, none of us are 100% totally satisfied with the current state of evangelicalism. We've got some beef to resolve, and this is where we are in this season. We hash some of it out in this episode.Co-Host - Chris Cerna is a former youth pastor turned co-church planter turned house church leader. Of course he loves Jesus! He brings another flavor the conversation and some saltiness of his own. His desire to connect with the listeners is a major strength.Co-Host – Jason teaches and leads at the Source Wichita in Wichita, KS. His ability to direct conversations by asking questions that really make you think shift and guide the trajectory and depth of the Salty Dog podcasts. Having planted within an "attractional church" model, his theologies and philosophy of ministry has evolved over time.Co-Host – Casey has true grit. His raw view of life pours edge into the conversations as he seeks to share his true love for others. He wrestles with human nature and prevails in the grace shown to him. You can hear it in him, if you hear him.Watch the Facebook replay: http://bit.ly/sdp-s3-e8-liveThank you for your continued support of the Salty Dogs Podcast!

Have you ever considered that when you sit down for a meal that something died for you to eat? Whether a plant or an animal, death is a part of our meal. So that we might have life, things have died. How should this notion affect us as we come to the table, altar if you will, at each meal? Learn how food and faith tie into one another, and how when your relationship with food changes, the Lord can redeem relationships at the table.Jeff Jewett's notes: http://bit.ly/food-faith-notesJeff Jewett's book recommendations: • Norman Wirzba Food & Faith https://amzn.to/2PiX4hj• James Smith You Are What You Love : https://amzn.to/2IJQI9wWatch the Facebook replay: http://bit.ly/sdp-s3e6-live•Thank you for your continued support of the Salty Dogs Podcast!

Toxic masculinity has become a buzzword in our nation as of late. NY times says this: "Researchers have defined it, in part, as a set of behaviors and beliefs that include the following:Suppressing emotions or masking distressMaintaining an appearance of hardnessViolence as an indicator of power (think: “tough-guy” behavior)So, as men and believers in Christ, how should we conduct ourselves in light of toxic masculinity being a thing? Derek Shore comes back on to help us navigate the situation. Spoiler alert, we end on Jesus.Watch the live stream replay (two parts, we lost connection at one point) Part 1 - http://bit.ly/sdp-live-s3e5_pt1Part 2 - http://bit.ly/sdp-live-s3e5-pt2Thank you for your continued support of the Salty Dogs Podcast!

There's no doubt that many Christians are discontent in their contexts and with the expressions of "church" they're experiencing. It can be difficult to navigate the thoughts and feelings that come along with this. Having experienced some of our own discontentment in the past, the Salty Dogs bring experience, maybe some wisdom and an honest conversation about how to deal with the current state of "church".Watch the live stream replay: http://bit.ly/SDP-S3E3-liveThank you for your continued support of the Salty Dogs Podcast!
