Well Said

We all do it, but why is it so important? How do we overcome feelings like our job is pointless? Or maybe to see what we are doing as worship and mission? How do you prevent work from becoming an idol? How do you work hard and serve the church well? Should you stay in the marketplace or work in ministry? Join Tory, Mary, Krys, Yusuf, and Jenna as they discuss work.

In this episode, Tory and Mary explore the influence media has on our lives and the idea that we all have varying sensitivities—or “allergies”—to it. How can you recognize and assess your own “media allergy,” and what are the risks of letting it go unchecked—and the joys of managing it wisely? How is media shaping your relationship with Christ, and what boundaries can help you use it in faith (Romans 14:23)?

As a church, we’ve covered 1 Corinthians 11:33b-40 and 14:2-16 and see that neither passage addresses women in leadership. So where in Scripture is this topic addressed? Why is it often difficult to understand and therefore apply? Why is this truly something to debate about? How can we pray and press in as we seek to submit to Scripture? Join Tory and Mary as they discuss.

How do we learn and grow in using our spiritual gifts individually and corporately? When we engage in discovering, identifying, and humbly submitting the operation of the gifts to the Lord we have greater intimacy with Him. We receive more of Jesus and we rightly employ these gifts in serving one another as good stewards of the multifaceted grace of God (1 Peter 4:10).

How do we go about understanding and applying passages about parapets in Deuteronomy and women being ceremonially unclean due to menstrual cycles in Leviticus 15? Do these still apply to us today?
