What I’m getting coming off of this video is that true believers are few to none. I didn’t realize how many of the US states (or globally) lacked biblical Churches. I live in a state where there are many churches; however, many of them lend themselves to heretical teaching of CRT, Progressive Christianity, or the prosperity gospel. I can only imagine Arizona is no different. Redeemer's staff must be working hard. Thanks, Pastor Jon and Redeemer Staff, for allowing for some of the content to be on the internet. It’s greatly encouraged my family and me.
The east coast is TOUGH. Born and raised here. It is incredibly difficult to find a bible believing church. Large infiltration of new age, false teachers and false prophecy. People are tired and allow wolves to come in. On our third church in two years due to it. Little to no discernment. Large acceptance and celebration of sin. Focus on loving like the world. It’s super hard to find church community and likeminded Christians. I can count them on two hands. Thank you for putting up these podcasts. They provide help and direction when there has been little. Its a fight but one we won’t give up on. ❤
You close and make a great point with Josiah - WHEN WE LIVE by the DESIGN of the DESIGNER, things CHANGE for the good. Wicked and Evil disappear with the godlessness that was with it, to godliness, and Good, Healing, and repairs being made. This is the Revival we all need. It starts with one, in the word, committed, and then another, and another. Keep up the good work, we will be praying for you, and thank you, Kyle and Jon, we are blessed that you keep expanding the ministry so we can all grab a handle and grow. Wisely you also know how to feed as good shepherds, not the entire cake or pie at once, but a slice at a time, like the elephant, one bite at a time. Anything that seems insurmountable is doable step by step, day by day, so as the Lord tarries, we pray for this change here at RBC, and to all who are watching to affect their areas. So do not complain there are no good churches where you are at, take courage, and start one.
I'm so glad pastor Nate is only about 2 hours away from me. I've been following him on Twitter for a while and didn't even know!! I live in Massachusetts. Great episode!
Never a dull moment ~ a refreshing and different podcast for sure. Thank you for coming on and sharing with us all Nick, great word, great passion, great presentation, and enthusiasm. If PASTORS are ON FIRE - their PEOPLE will also BE ON FIRE. If Pastors are PASSIONATE holding a SACRED VALUE to the WORD of GOD, in time its people will be also. God bless you and your ministry there.
Definitely a book I will be getting as well. Thank you for sharing this as I’m having strong convictions and heard pastor say his sermons are structured to just give us the tid bits which I have been struggling with. Thank you for this interview. I pray that the full word of God continues to be preached and the Gospel of Jesus Christ continues to be proclaimed. God bless
This is a great message. I brought my 2 young adult sons to Easter service a week ago and I think one was very uncomfortable and the other enjoyed the service. Although I gave them Bibles, I think the one son struggles to go into his Bible. I will buy this book for sure! Thank you!
I too do not agree with w the baseball cap, growing up in NY I have always been a Mets fan, and yes, I do have a fond appreciation for snowballs and remember salting down driveways for .50 cents and shoveling 5 and 6 feet of snow, by hand. You are right, Kyle lives in AZ, as does Dale, and Curtis and they follow the Dodgers. Tim follows the Cubs, so maybe your next book could be to get your baseball team right, lol.
People are attracted to what is beautiful, holy, and vibrant (alive). I have never seen like at a football game the same excitement at a morgue, cemetery, or funeral parlor. If the word of God is not relevant as Josh McDowell once said, then it is really hard to get people to be passionate about it. Jon made a good point alluding to Amos 8, specifically verse 11 - does it not seem there has been a FAMINE in the land for the Word, and it will only be intensifying as it becomes taboo under persecution from an evil and lawless government that puts its own rule and ideas above God's. If there was ever a need for people to Turn, Turn, Turn to repent, it is NOW!!!!
In the early days, Temple goers and Judeo-Christian church met daily. The Bereans were in the word daily (Acts 17:11) to make sure what was being said, was actually so. The most important thing in our life should not be our idols and distractions that lead us to a busy life where time escapes and nothing of significance is done. The Lord Jesus should always take 1st place. The wonder and fascination of God and all He has created and the way He has created it should keep us continually fascinated and occupied so much so, that we can not help share what we know and learn with others still seeking to know.
When a young man has an interest in a young lady, or a sport, hobby, what have you, they don't ask the girl for her hand, and then never see her again for the next 40 years. They develop a curiosity to learn more and more about that interest like you did with Titus, and IMMERSE themselves until they could SMILE what they learned and what they were coming to know. So it should be with our study, growth, and relationship with God and His Word. Oswald Chambers & Charles Spurgeon - held the Highest and utmost respect, reverence, and honor for the Word of God. Today, the Word of God is not like the American Express card posted in windows, "accepted here, don't leave home without it". In fact, in most places the sticker on the church window as you say has been replaced, with opinion and suggestion, that is not what God is about, nor how He operates.
If we say we don't LOVE reading the BIBLE >>> we need to tap the breaks, back up and reflect, or as you say, Slow Down, and re-assess. Not to guilt anyone out there but THE BIBLE as John chapter 1 says, was with God, the Word was with God, and the WORD was God. So if we say, not for me, we are saying God I'm too busy, my will be done, not for me. We are right off the bat then, rejecting God, and that may "offend" some, but that is ok, better to be told the Truth and not like it - repent and change, be saved and spared from hell, than to not be challenged, and go along with - and say that's ok, and wind up with their blood on our hands when they cry out in Hell, why didn't you tell us? I used to teach kids in elementary school years ago, (one of the many hats I wore) and they would say, Mr. G - I can't read when what I found they were saying was they won't try, or they won't or don't want to read. By the end of the year we took a 4th-grade class illiterate since kindergarten to superior reading word and vocabulary skills, and math too, one of the best in the district. Parents needed to challenge them, often and sadly the kids won, and got off easy. We have a Pastor here on Tuesday, for the 55+ group, Pastor Darryl teaching us Solomon's Journal, Wisdom from the Word, he makes the Bible come alive. In less than 6 months, that group has gone from zero to hundreds and most cannot wait to be there front and center. You are correct, there is a HUNGER for the WORD of GOD because it has not been preached enough over the last few decades or more.
