  • Origins of Halloween: Kenneth Mack
    Does it ever seem odd to you that Christians celebrate Halloween? Join me in this episode with guest speaker Kenneth Mack of Provocatively Pure as he discusses the origins of Halloween, and gives insight on why as a Christian you may think twice about celebrating this national holiday. 
    1 Corinthians 10:21 - You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons.
    Ephesians 5:11 - Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.
    3 John 1:11 - Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God.
    2 Corinthians 6:14-18 - Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever? What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, “I will make my dwelling among them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing; then I will welcome you, and I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.”
    Romans 12:2 - Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

  • People are going to be PEOPLE

    In today's world we constantly hear phrases like "keep your circle small," "you can't trust anyone" and "people are my problem." This episode explores the reason behind those phrases and how to handle "people" in your life. 


    10 verses on how to deal with PEOPLE

    1. Proverbs 10:12. "Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses."
    2. Proverbs 15:1. "A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."
    3. Proverbs 28:13. "Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy."
    4. Matthew 7:3-4. "Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye?"
    5. Matthew 5:44-45. "But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust."
    6. Luke 6:27-29. "But I say to you who hear, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you. To one who strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also, and from one who takes away your cloak do not withhold"
    7. Romans 14:13. " Therefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother."

      Versus to remember during a crisis.

      1: Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Deuteronomy 31:6 | NIV

      declares the Lord. Isaiah 54:17 | NIV

    12. The Abused Child

      This podcast was a bit difficult for me. If you know a child who is being abused, or you yourself are being abused, GET HELP! 

      NATIONAL CHILD ABUSE HOTLINE: 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4453). Crisis Counselors are available 24/7

      What to report

      Explain, as well as you can, what happened or is happening to the child.  Describe the nature of the abuse or neglect.  Be as specific as possible.

      It is helpful to have as much of the following information as you can when you call:

      • Name of birth parents or guardian
      • Date of birth for parents and children
      • Address of parents and children
      • School in which the children attend
      • Articulate the safety issue (What is the parent or guardian doing or not doing that is causing the child harm?)
      • When the safety issued occurred and how often
      • Name, date of birth, and location if possible, of the person who caused the hurt or harm.

      Even if you do not know all of this information, report what you do know. Tell all you know about the situation.

      Getting help

      Children who have been abused need caring adults to help them recognize that they are not responsible for the violence in their homes and to help them find ways to grow past their present trauma into healthy adults. Caring adults must help abused children avoid a cycle of learned abusive patterns by teaching and modeling nonviolent methods of conflict resolution and helping them express their feelings in healthy ways.

      Your community has victim assistance programs and counselors who are trained to work with child abuse victims. These advocates can provide information and a full range of victim support services. The services are available to all child victims even if no one is charged with a crime.
