How to create a Bible culture in the church

In this podcast with Aleise Elsenboss and Renea Kren, we talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly of The Chosen. 

We give a review of season four. What were our favorite scenes and what are the challenges?

We also talk about some of the hard things like flags on set and problems with the Latter-Day Saints (LDS/Mormons).

We delve into Christian movies and the whole scene.

I have been in a busy dry season in some ways.

How do we negotiate those seasons of life and move forward?

The secret sauce is that we have inside help.

God lives in us. Faith in Christ (Gal. 2:20) ignites the fire of God in us.

Welcome to the Stoke it up! podcast. This podcast exists to encourage you in your journey with God. 

I am Alan Stoddard and I am your host. Today, I have James Walker on the podcast. He’s the executive director of Watchmen Fellowship. Today the topic is, “the Bible, atheists, and culture.“ Today we talk about why someone should believe the Bible and light of other scriptures in the world. We also talk about the Need to talk with atheists. But there’s a unique twist to this part. Take a listen and you’ll find it. We don’t want to just be conversing with atheists, but we want to…

We no longer live in a culture with home turf for the gospel. We have to know why we believe what we believe.  

Increase your ability to share the gospel within our context today, not yesterday. To do that we’re going to have to talk with the atheists, agnostics, and those who are hostile to Christianity. 

I would be interested in your feedback, of course. Share this in the media circles where you think it can do some good.

Welcome to the Stoke it up! podcast. A podcast encouraging you and your journey with God. I’m Alan Stoddard and I am your Stoke Coast. Today we have Pastor Josh Black with us. Josh is the lead pastor of Victory Calvary Chapel in Menifee California.

I met Josh at the Expositors Collective in Temecula California last August. We just happened to run into each other in the latte line. I jumped ahead of them kind of so I thought, “You should buy his latte.“ And the rest is history. He preached part of the Expositors' experience. He did the talk on Christ Center preaching and I was enamored with it. I knew I loved this dude.

Well, the next day, I got to teach the Bible at his church. And I noticed something unique about this church. It was very stoked. 

Let’s jump in and get some questions going and see what it might look like to lead a normal, but vibrant local church into 2024. As you listen, let’s listen to increase our leadership skillset.

Lonnie Short is the Executive Pastor of Granbury Baptist Church, Granbury, Texas. Recently I was in a staff meeting with the team while Lonnie taught on setting goals. The outline is below. I recommend you copy and paste them into a note on your phone for you to review.

Welcome to the Stoke It Up! podcast.

A podcast encouraging you in your journey with God.

In this week's episode, Dr. Dan Crawford discusses how to partner prayer with evangelism. As the days get late, churches would serve the Lord and themselves well to stoke the fires of evangelism and prayer.

What does the Great Commission look like for you in 2024?

In this week's podcast, Elijah Abraham (not his real name. We must keep his identity protected) reveals what is happening in a hard part of the world. As you listen, consider how the gospel influences the Great Commission in your journey with God.

You can check out www.livingoasis.org to connect further with Elijah. He would love that. He is not on social media. If you want to get even more connected than his website, contact me. I'll get you with him.
