The Heidi St. John Podcast

The Spirit of the Lord is doing a mighty work — right now! It’s an exciting time to be a follower of Jesus.

It’s also a time in which we must learn to discern the voice of right teaching from those who would lead God’s people away from the truth. God Himself reminds His people to “test the spirits,” because He knew there would be “teachers” who would divide and scatter the flock. Have you been in your Bible lately? Join us for some encouragement to do just that.

Fool’s Gold?: Discerning Truth in an Age of Error edited by Dr. John MacArthur

In an age of open-mindedness, many believers accept too much with too little discernment, resulting in great confusion and compromise. But God’s Word makes it clear that not everything that glitters is gold. False teaching is at every turn, and the temptation to embrace it is great. As God’s people we are called to sift through the overwhelming number of traditions and trends and use the truth of Scripture to determine which are the true treasures-and which are “fool’s gold.”

General editor John MacArthur and the contributors of this uncompromising book define the principles of biblical discernment and use them to address several contemporary Christian issues. They provide straightforward, biblical critiques of some popular but unfortunate Christian trends, such as watered-down preaching and doctrinally questionable best-selling books. Dr. MacArthur ends with a practical plan for cultivating discernment in the Christian life.

It is the duty of every Christian-not just pastors and elders-to follow the biblical command to cling to what is good and to reject what is not. This book will equip you with a foundation for biblical discernment that will enable you to make careful distinctions in your thinking about truth.

Are you looking for hope? It can be easy for us to feel overwhelmed by the things that seem out of control around us: illness, the loss of a child, crushed dreams, disillusionment with elected leaders—but the Bible tells us that whenever we try to find hope in the world, we will be disappointed. Join Heidi today as she talks with Durenda about why our hope in God is never misplaced.

Get Out of That Pit by Beth Moore

Beth’s journey out of the pit has been heart-rending. But from this and the poetic expressions of Psalm 40 has come the reward: a new song for her soul, given by her Savior and offered to you in Get Out of That Pit―friend to friend. This is Beth’s most stirring message yet of the sheer hope, utter deliverance, and complete and glorious freedom of God:

I waited patiently for the Lord

He turned to me and heard my cry

He lifted me out of the slimy pit

He set my feet on a rock

He put a new song in my mouth

It is a story, a song―a salvation―that you can know too.

Scriptures to pray and meditate on:

II Corin. 9:8, II Corin. 1:4, Romans 8:28, Hebrews 6:19,20, Psalm 42:5, Romans 15:13

Follow Me: A Call to Die. A Call to Live. by David Platt and Francis Chan

Soul Detox: Clean Living in a Contaminated World by Craig Groeschel

As standards of conduct continue to erode in our shock-proof world, we must fight the soul pollution threatening our health, our faith, and our witness to others. Without even knowing it, people willingly inhale second-hand toxins poisoning their relationship with God and stunting their spiritual growth.

Soul Detox examines the toxins that assault us daily including: toxic influences, toxic emotions, and toxic behaviors.

By examining the toxins that assault us daily, this book offers the ultimate spiritual intervention with ways to remain clean, pure, and focused on the standard of God’s holiness.

The Christian Atheist: Believing in God but Living As If He Doesn’t Exist   Craig Groeschel

“The more I looked, the more I found Christian Atheists everywhere.” Former Christian Atheist Craig Groeschel knows his subject all too well. After over a decade of successful ministry, he had to make a painful self admission: although he believed in God, he was leading his church like God didn’t exist. To Christians and non-Christians alike, to the churched and the unchurched, the journey leading up to Groeschel’s admission and the journey that follows—from his family and his upbringing to the lackluster and even diametrically opposed expressions of faith he encountered—will look and sound like the story of their own lives.
