In this episode, we’re diving into a tough but necessary conversation. With Pride Month in full swing, we’re talking honestly about how the church has treated the LGBTQ+ community. Have we focused too much on their faults while turning a blind eye to our own? Have we pushed people away from Jesus by holding up a mirror to their sin, but never looking into it ourselves?

We’re not here to compromise the gospel — but we are here to ask hard questions, extend real grace, and call the church back to Christ’s example.

Called or Just Captivating? How to Spot the Difference Between Preachers and Performers

In this episode of The Black Table Podcast, we dive into a conversation the Church desperately needs: Are all preachers really called by God—or are some just charismatic entertainers with a mic and a platform? We explore the difference between a divine calling and a polished performance, discussing the marks of spiritual authority versus the signs of mere stage presence.

🔥 We talk about:

• How to discern spiritual depth from emotional hype
• Red flags that someone may be performing, not pastoring
• Why gifting isn’t the same as anointing
• How to protect your heart (and your ears) from being led astray by “feel good” messages with no spiritual weight

This one is honest, eye-opening, and necessary.

We started off talking about the legacy and power of the Black church... but somewhere along the way, we took a turn and ended up in a convo about the prosperity gospel—what it is, what it isn't, and why it stirs up so much controversy.

From spiritual manipulation to genuine faith for provision, we're unpacking all of it at The Black Table. This one was fun
