As you know, I took some time away from the Acts during the Christmas season to reflect on some Christmas texts.  I really enjoyed that.  But, now that we are into the new year, I wanted to jump back into the book of Acts for these Bible Talks episodes here on Coffee with Keith.  In this episode, we turn our attention to Acts 9 and the conversion of Saul (later to become Paul).  There are so many things we could talk about from this story but I wanted to focus on the actions of Ananias.   In his honesty and actions I see example for all of us who want to follow Jesus. 

So, grab that coffee, have a seat at my table, and let's chat on this Bible Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast.

Welcome to a Table Talks episode on the Coffee with Keith podcast.  Today, my guest is Cody Lee Aulidge who was born and raised in a small town just outside of Nashville, TN. He was raised in a lil ole southern Baptist church where Gospel music and “ole time religion” played an integral part in his
 upbringing. Being a “Mama’s Boy”, he spent a lot of time around women. His best friends in grade school were always the girls, nurturing a feminine persona in him, causing a lot of bullying and them questioning his sexuality. He came out as gay early on in high school. But after he began attending a fundamentalist evangelical Pentecostal church, he ran back into the closet. He went on to travel and lead worship all over the southeast, California, and the British Virgin Islands with his Pentecostal Christian University’s worship choir for seven semesters, traveling, leading worship, singing with various worship teams, interning at churches, and working in ministry in various capacities for 11 years. After making a big move across the country to help start a church, it was then time for Cody to come to terms with who God made him to be and now identifies as Pansexual. Cody lives in Wilmington, NC. He is working in real estate marketing and as a freelance health coach. He is involved in his community and has created an incredible group of affirming friends! He is pushing himself daily to learn more about theology and growing in his relationship with God. He is happy and knows tha

In today's Bible Talks, we jump into Isaiah 63:7-9.  If one simply rips these few verses out and runs with them, you would think they are from the mouths of happy people and someone would make a contemporary worship song with them.  But, if we take a look at the context, we see that they are very much part of a Lament section of the prophesy.  In the chapter, the prophet seems to sometimes lament on behalf of the people of Israel and sometimes he seems to lament on behalf of God.  Yeah...God.  Even God gets kinda bummed by what is happening.  But, in the midst of it all, we find these words.  Let's talk about it on this episode.

So, grab that coffee, have a seat at my table, and let's chat on this Bible Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast.

I had planned to take this week off from podcast episodes but I felt I needed to drop in and just remind you to look out for your mental wellbeing after the Christmas holiday.  Although we hope it will be a festive and joyous celebration in peoples' lives, we are also aware that it can be a very difficult time for many within the LGBTQ+ community.  So, listen to this short word of encouragement and take me up on the suggestion I offer.  I truly want you to be okay. 

So, grab that coffee, have a seat at my table, and let's chat on this Table Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast.

The "church" of Jesus's day, much like the church of today, thought they were the ones with it "all together."  In this podcast episode, I share a couple of historical orthodox beliefs regarding Jesus that are demonstrated in John 1: 1-13 but more importantly, I share with you some personal thoughts on what the text seems to show us about the condition of the world then...and now.  Who received Jesus?  Who rejected Jesus?  Let's talk about it on today's podcast.

This is a big one.  On  today's Table Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast, I speak directly to those parents who have now learned that their child is LGBTQIA+.  Having grown up in that world, having been formally educated in that world, and having served as a teacher/pastor in that world, I understand what a shock this is to them.  But, as a man who believes that their child is okay with God, and more importantly, as a parent, they have a responsibility and privilege to love their child, I want to offer some advice and encouragement to them.

If you are such a parent or you know someone who is, then this is a perfect episode.

Last week, if you listened to the Bi Talks, you heard about "the second closet."  Well, this week, I want to push that idea a little further and talk about what I believe is "third closet" for the male bisexual.  Even with all the advancements within the queer world, this particular group of folks is often still shunned, judged, and often alienated.  Let's talk about it.

So, grab that coffee, have a seat at my table, and let's chat on this Bible Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast.

Today, on this Bible Talks episode of Coffee with Keith, I turn our attention to Matthew 1:18-25 and the story of Jesus' birth found there.  Unlike the birth of Jesus found in the Gospel of Luke, this account is rather short.  It does tie it back to Old Testament fulfillment when it connect to Isaiah but the story itself is rather quick.  So, after I set the context a little, and make the connection to the Old Testament obviously, I dive into the lesson that this text gave me.  The lesson comes from the actions and heart of Joseph in relation to Mary, the mother of Jesus.  I share with you the thought, the timing, and the "to do" if we truly want to be a good follower of Jesus.  That lesson in my opinion here is: Do like Joseph.

So, grab that coffee, have a seat at my table, and let's chat on this Bible Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast.

It is possible that you have heard these terms or will hear these terms if you listen to any trauma series teaching or even work with a counselor or coach who works with Trauma clients.  So, in this podcast, I spend a few minutes trying to give a simple explanation of each, but more importantly, use that information as a springboard into two points I want to make when it comes to LGBTQ+ Church Trauma. 

So, grab that coffee, have a seat at my table, and let's chat on this Bible Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast.

In this episode, I want to mention an expression that was coined by Ethan Mereish, psychologist and associate professor at American University in Washington, DC.  He described this experience as "the double closet."  What is that?  Well, I can assure you that it is something many bisexuals experience when it comes to being in the closet or coming out.  I'll share that with you in this episode.
