The Postscript Show

Evangelism holds a significant place in the life and mission of the Christian, but the truth is very few of us are doing it. Throughout Scripture, we see Jesus and the apostles engaging people in a way that reflects boldness and urgency — so what makes us so afraid of confronting people with that same degree of urgency. 

On todays show, we are going to be speaking with Pastor Dylan Novak, who is a man on a mission to bring the gospel to one of the least reached people groups — celebrities. God is using Dylan to lovingly confront movie stars and musicians with the gospel. Since the start of his ministry, God has given him the opportunity to share the gospel with over 1,000 celebrities. 

Dylan’s view of confrontational evangelism and his heart to “redeem the time” makes him an ensample to all of us who desire to have a more active and personal evangelism ministry.

In today’s episode, we’re tackling a topic that challenges cultural norms and theological assumptions: polygamy. What was once considered a fringe practice in the U.S. is now gaining more visibility, prompting questions about marriage, ethics, and faith.

What does the Bible say and how should Christians understand this subject? In the Old Testament we see polygamy in practice among patriarchs and kings who had multiple wives –but how did God perceive that? Are there instances in which God condones the practice?

To help us navigate this topic, we’re joined by missiology professor James Fyffe, a missionary himself, who spent time ministering in cultures where polygamy is a longstanding tradition. Today we will look to God’s word to find out not only what the Bible says about polygamy, but how this question may impact people in ministry and on the mission field. James, welcome to the show.

In this episode of the Ps+ we join Pastor Blade Sbisa to discuss what it means to be human according to the Bible. Our world often pressures us to define ourselves by temporary external categories, but the Bible challenges us to look deeper and ground our identity in Christ. 

The Old Testament tabernacle was meticulously crafted according to divine instruction and served as the central place of worship and communion between God and His people during Israel’s wilderness journey. Far more than a portable sanctuary, the tabernacle was the tangible manifestation of God’s presence dwelling among His covenant people. Its detailed construction, from the outer court to the Most Holy Place, was imbued with theological significance, providing the nation of Israel with rich symbolism in their worship. 

The alter of incense was a sacred piece of furniture in the tabernacle used for burning incense as a daily offering to the Lord. It was located just outside the Holy of Holies. For the New Testament believer, the altar of incense has tons of typological significance, with layers of prophetic meaning, holding truths that find their fullest expression in Christ. 

The tabernacle wasn’t just for Israel but it testifies to the divine design that culminates in Christ’s redemptive mission and relationship with mankind. To discuss the typology behind the altar of incense specifically, we have invited Brian Hedges, pastor at Heartland Baptist Fellowship in Harrisonville, MO and president of Word First Publishing.

For many, church is a sanctuary, a place of healing, guidance, and community. But for others, church can represent pain, betrayal, and confusion. Whether it’s due to witnessing a leadership failure, experiencing cultures of legalism, exclusion, or spiritual abuse - church hurt can leave lasting scars that challenge not only a person's trust in others, but also their relationship with God.

How do people who have experienced these things overcome their feelings? How do we grieve the failures of people we respected and loved? How do we confront bitterness and what in some cases may be justification for personal
sin? How do we find the strength to forgive and move on in our pursuit of Christ?

In this episode, we're joined by Jonathan Kindler, professor of Biblical Counseling at the Living Faith Bible Institute, who has both experienced “church hurt” firsthand and dedicated much of his work to helping others navigate it. Together, we explore why these painful experiences happen in places meant for love and acceptance, and what people can do to overcome them. We also look at how leaders should respond when people in our congregations have experienced a trial or hardship within the church setting.

In this episode of the Ps+ we join Pastor Blade Sbisa in a conversation about human thoughts. The world teaches people to evaluate and respond to the circumstances of life with self at the center, while the Bible charges people to view themselves in relation to the Lord. 

Jeff Grasher, Student Affairs & Bridge Program Director of Living Faith Bible Institute, invites student of LFBI, Gary Huntley, to share his testimony of salvation and how LFBI is equipping him for ministry at Main Street Christian Church. Gary tells us of the impact of LFBI courses and how they are building his doctrinal understanding of God's Word as a disciple of Jesus Christ.

Tithing has long been a fundamental practice among Christians as an act of faith and obedience. Many churches today continue to emphasize tithing as a means of supporting ministry, aiding the needy, and demonstrating trust in God’s provision.

No doubt about it though, when money is involved, there will be bad actors. With the rise of televangelism and the seed-faith gospel, many Christians have grown cynical about giving. Even in local churches, there is a growing sentiment that the Christian is not responsible for the tithe, but that it is an Old Testament practice, done away with in the New Testament. Is that true? What does scripture reveal about the practice of the tithe? Is it relevant today?

Brandon Briscoe, Provost of Living Faith Bible Institute, has invited Pastor Chris Best, Missiology instructor at the Living Faith Bible Institute onto the show to address this subject from a biblical perspective.
