OD Talk

Today I speak with my wife Rebecca about her role as a pastor’s wife. We discuss what she thought it’d be like before we got into the ministry, how it’s different since doing it for about a decade, ways people can be a blessing to any pastor’s wife and how to encourage them, and much more! My wife is such an amazing, fun loving woman who loves Jesus and coffee :) --------------- About Open Door Baptist Church: We are a Free Grace, dispensational, pre-trib, pre-mil church located in the heart of Alabama.

John Poti and his wife Stacey have been a member of Open Door for quite a while now and today, I chat with John about doctrine. Specifically, what is "sound" doctrine and what is it important for the health of a church and the health of a believer. As a lawyer, he has some great insights into this discussion.--------------- About Open Door Baptist Church: We are a Free Grace, dispensational, pre-trib, pre-mil church located in the heart of Alabama.

Today I sit down with...myself, and go over a reddit post that brings the idea that the Bible is irrelevant in our culture today due to it being an ancient collection of writings. I consider the arguments, provide rebuttals, and explain how the Bible is transcendent and universal, and even still relevant for our day today.--------------- About Open Door Baptist Church: We are a Free Grace, dispensational, pre-trib, pre-mil church located in the heart of Alabama.

Today I am by myself and take this opportunity to discuss a soteriological acronym I had developed a few years ago. LOTUS was developed as a counter to the Calvinist’s TULIP, as I seek to explain a more biblical approach to how God’s salvation is offered to whosoever, and that all have the ability to volitionally believe or reject the Gospel message. If you’ve never heard of the LOTUS acronym, I encourage you to check out my YouTube video playlist below for more in-depth details, or get the free pdf manuscript of the book. If you want to purchase the LOTUS book, you may do so at Amazon.LOTUS YouTube Playlist:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeOcdkxTcWJuRlng7GsykcIFRJTQlt00FRequest the LOTUS Free Book:https://odbaptist.com/pages/free-grace-matters--35Purchase LOTUS: A Free Grace Response to TULIP:https://a.co/d/duH3UgoEmail me:[email protected] Open Door Baptist Church:We are a Free Grace, dispensational, pre-trib, pre-mil church located in the heart of Alabama.

In today’s episode, I interview Aaron Wright regarding the doctrines of TULIP. Aaron walks through each of the five points of TULIP, explaining what they mean from a Reformed perspective and then shows how the Bible does not support this Calvinistic framework. In counter of TULIP, Aaron champions our LOTUS acronym as a true biblical soteriological framework. If you want a free pdf copy of the LOTUS book, visit the link below, and scroll down the page. https://odbaptist.com/pages/free-grace-matters--35--------------- About Open Door Baptist Church: We are a Free Grace, dispensational, pre-trib, pre-mil church located in the heart of Alabama.
