This episode is a replay from something we recorded early on in the history of this podcast.  We take a trip each year to visit our friends in Maryland.  We decided to sit down and record a casual conversation about what God has done in our lives.  At the time Kyle and Hannah had recently had a baby that you will hear in the background.  Jhoi was single and Karen and I didn’t have our foster children yet.  We will be heading to Maryland again so stay tuned for the followup episode.  Much has changed in a year but God has been faithful through it all.  He always is!

On this episode we go over Lord’s Day 2 of the Heidelberg Catechism.  This begins the section on our sin and misery.  We discuss the catechism and some of the Scripture references that the answers are drawn from. If you have a family or not we suggest going through a historic Christian catechism.

Lord’s Day 2

Q & A 3

Q. How do you come to know your misery?

A. The law of God tells me.1

1 Rom. 3:20; 7:7-25

Q & A 4

Q. What does God’s law require of us?

A. Christ teaches us this in summary in Matthew 22:37-40:

“‘You shall love the Lord your God

with all your heart,

and with all your soul,

and with all your mind.’1

This is the greatest and first commandment.

“And a second is like it:

‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’2

“On these two commandments hang

all the law and the prophets.”

1 Deut. 6:5

2 Lev. 19:18

Q & A 5

Q. Can you live up to all this perfectly?

A. No.1

I have a natural tendency

to hate God and my neighbor.2

1 Rom. 3:9-20, 23; 1 John 1:8, 10

2 Gen. 6:5; Jer. 17:9; Rom. 7:23-24; 8:7; Eph. 2:1-3; Titus 3:3

On this episode we have a special guest.  James White came on to discuss worship.  NO! NOT THAT James White!!! James D White, one of the hosts of The Everyday Ministry Podcast, talked with us about how he formats his church’s worship as lead pastor.  We go through their liturgy, song selection, and talk some about the Lord’s Supper.  James is a great brother in Christ and we were honored to have him on.  Please check out his podcast (link is below) as we have been edified and encouraged by him and all the hosts on the program.  We hope this episode edifies and encourages you to think about how we worship God corporately on the Lord’s Day.

On this episode we got to have Andrew Rappaport over to discuss what the Bible says about women in ministry roles.  Some of his comments caused a stir on social media a bit ago and we wanted to see what he had to say.  More importantly we wanted to see what the Word of God has to say.  I know not all agree on this but as Christians we need to believe what God says.  We also discuss some of what happens to some pastors when they achieve celebrity status.  Enjoy and if you want to give feedback please do so in a Christian way.

We decided that each month we will have an episode where we start to discuss a catechism.  A catechism is a tool used to teach the what we believe as Christians.  This is done in a question and answer form.  There is a link below to the catechism we have decided to start with.  You can find the history behind it as well as the biblical texts the questions and answers are drawn from.  We hope to get through this entire catechism then move on to another one.  It is important for Christians to know what we believe.  It is also important to teach our children as well.  We hope these episode benefit you in your walk with Christ.

On this episode we hope to answer what we are even doing at the abortion mill.  Thousands of unborn babies are murdered everyday.  Should Christians be going to where this is happening and providing a solution?   Should Christians be going to where this is happening and preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ?  Many say this isn’t the way to address this problem.  Give a listen to what we think and what the Bible says.  https://endabortionnow.com

In this episode we look to the Bible to help us answer the question, “What happens to people who never hear the gospel?” We also try to tackle what happens to babies if they die before they can make a confession of saving faith.  God has the answers and we can only tell you what we see in the Scriptures.  If you have any insight on these issues please let us know.  Let us preach the gospel to everyone we can and may “whosoever will” come to Jesus Christ.  Please partner with us on Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/whatareweevendoinghere
