E65 – Thoughts on Disciple-making when you are overwhelmed with life

10/2/2021
Busy is the word for the day. I can keep up with anyone in the busy-race. I can out-busy just about anyone.... not that I'm proud of it. The thing with disciple-making is it works even when you get overwhelmed for a bit. Here is a short recording I made back in MARCH!!!! It only took my 6 months to move it from my phone to my computer to you.

1/20/2020
Many prepare for the initial sacrifice, but few think about the costs the rest of their lives. Its been a while since we posted anything. After I posted this episode I thought of a dozen different things I wish I had said or added, so maybe I'll make a part 2 down the road.

E52 – Which sin would you rather commit?

4/2/2019
Have you ever found yourself facing a decision and not knowing which way is right and which way is wrong? Each choice has the potential for obedience and each choice has the potential for sin. I recently was faced with a similar problem. For me, the final thing that helped me make my decision was the question in the title of this post. Which sin would I rather commit... or rather which sin would I want to avoid the most?

E51 – Flunking Matthew twenty-five 101

3/26/2019
Have you ever flunked Matthew twenty-five 101? I'm not even talking about the advanced class. I'm talking about 101. Dave and I have flunked it a few times. I actually don't think you can really pass it until you have flunked it a few times. In this episode we discuss some of the challenges of living out this scripture is intentionally. One of those challenges is escaping our middle class insulation from the poor. Last week, Kris talked about how he takes people from his church down to minister to the homeless in Oklahoma City in order to help them grow and disciple them. Today's podcast ties in perfectly to what Kris shared.

E47 – Memorize Scripture better

2/26/2019
Towards better scripture memory. In this podcast we will talk about a simple system for sustainable scripture memory. Then we will talk about a neuro-scientific method that helps you commit scripture to memory faster and better. For the system you will need some some kind of card. I use the ones from the Navigators. You can buy them on Amazon or from www.navpress.com. Here is a sample of the neuro-scientific method explained in the podcast. This example would be for memorizing Romans 14:1-4. "Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters. One person’s faith allows them to eat anything, but another, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables. The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall. And they will stand, for the Lord is able to make them stand." To help memorize this I would write out the road map letters like this. "A t o w f i w, w q o d m. O p f a t t e a, b a, w f i w, e o v. T o w e e m n t w c t o w d n, a t o w d n e e m n j t o w d, f G h a t. W a y t j s e s? T t o m, s s o f. A t w s, f t L i a t m t s."
