SpearCast

Part 4 in our series on 'Responsibility'. We move on from personal, and gendered responsibilities and attempt to speak truth in to family relations. There are a lot of thoughts out there on family structure and many of them are damaging to the health of the family, even the 'the man works, and the woman keeps house' traditional belief leaves the whole family wanting. Join us as we unravel this apparently complicated topic.

In the last episode, we discussed the damage that luciferian (worldly) thinking has done to gender. We dissected the current movements in our society and pointed out the damage being done by them. In this episode we will workout the second and vital part to the question of gender. How were we made? Did God put thought in to the genders or are they essentially the same? If we live in the truth that God built into gender, will we find ourselves being fulfilled?

Is there a difference between men and women? Did God give us different purposes. The world has a lot of opinions about the roles of men and women. In this episode of the Round Table we discuss the direction the world has taken sex and gender and the consequences of that.

NOW IN VIDEO! Responsibility is a word thrown around all the time. We are inundated with people's opinions on what we ought to be responsible for. We take responsibility for things we shouldn't, but so often, we fail to be responsible for ourselves. In this episode of "Round Table" The Spear Panel will discuss being responsible for ourselves and what that actually means. Simple things like eating, and grooming before trying to take on bigger things.

What is Truth? Is is the same thing as 'fact'? When God created the universe, he set things up as a reflection of himself. He instilled truths into the universe that were based on who he is. These truths are unchangeable. They are the building blocks upon which everything is seated. In this episode, we discuss truth in its various forms. Finding truth in the world around us. Seeking truth on a deeper level. How to base our lives on truth, and the cost of pursuing truth. The panel today consists of Damion, Bethany, Jared, and Kathy.

Masculinity is under fire in our world today. The question is often asked, "what does it mean to be a man?". There are endless definitions supplied by the world around us. Today we discuss Yeshua's definition.

Today, we have a shorter podcast for you. After watching the 'He gets us' Super Bowl ad, Bethany felt inspired to share some thoughts on the priorities of the modern church. Having fought tooth and nail to start a humanitarian effort of her own (KaphBet International), Bethany knows first hand how much Christians are generally willing to give.  In this 30 minute rant, Bethany provides a scathing review of recent events and implores us to consider what we are funding and supporting.

What is the Gospel? On this episode of SpearCast, the four usual suspects explore that simple but all encompassing question. We will address how the Gospel in generally presented today, and why it amounts to Cheap Grace. We will dive in to what message the Acts Church were going around telling people, and why it was radical enough to get them killed.  The term "Cheap Grace" was first brought to our attention by a book called "The Cost of Discipleship" by Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Our table today consists of:  Bethany Jensen, an author in Virginia. Kathy Ylostalo, a private tutor and business owner in Texas. Jared McCurrin, craftsman, business owner, and podcaster.

Today's episode is about hearing the voice of God. We discuss several questions in today's episode: 1. Why is it important to learn the truth about how God speaks to and leads his people? 2. Is there a simple answer to "how does God talk to people"? 3. What if God tells you something that seems to contradict the Bible? 4. How can you be sure that you are hearing from God? 5. What if a Pastor, leader, or authority figure tells you that you are not hearing from God and you need to 'listen to counsel'? Our table includes four people today.
