This week's episode is the last of 2024. With Christmas and a church lock-in both falling on Wednesdays, this was the last time for Townsend and Preacher Man to get together before the ringing in of 2025. So, they sat down and mused in the most literal sense of the word. No card, no topic prompt this week - just two folks reflecting on the year, th…

Predigt mit Matthäus 3,1-8 Advent ist die Zeit der Vorbereitung – aber anders, als es die meisten sich vorstellen. Es geht nicht darum, sich auf Weihnachten vorzubereiten, sondern auf das zweite Kommen von Jesus. Wenn dir noch viel schwieriger vorkommt, als die üblichen Weihnachtsplanungen, dann bist du hier richtig. Was uns ein abgedrehter Wüstenb…

Some conversations are easier to have than others. And sometimes, a conversation might have to do with things you don't know how to respond to. Today's episode looks at how Townsend and Preacher Man think someone should respond when a conversation that turns to God gets hit with the "I just don't believe that" bomb. Do you smack 'em with a Bible an…

Predigt mit Jesaja 61,1-5 Jedes Jahr das gleiche Spiel: Die Adventszeit ist so hektisch, dass gar keine Zeit bleibt, sich auf das Eigentliche vorzubereiten. Aber was ist nochmal „das Eigentliche“? Wieso fast alle die Adventszeit falsch verstehen, warum es gar nicht schlimm ist, wenn du dich noch nicht „weihnachtlich“ fühlst und worauf du dich in di…

"If you could go back and change your past, would you do it?" Sort of the plot to "Back to the Future" and definitely the plot to the movie "The Family Man" from 2000. Not a new question at all, maybe even one you've considered a time or two. Would you do it - go back and change things if you had the chance? Got a question you want answered or a to…

Predigt mit Psalm 126 Wenn du schon mal einen lieben Menschen verloren hast weißt du, wie grausam der Tod ist. Die Bibel nennt ihn sogar unseren schlimmsten Feind. Was du tun kannst, wenn dich der Gedanken an den Tod gefangen nimmt, wie dir eine Wüste in Israel dann helfen kann und welcher Traum viel realer ist, als die brutale Wirklichkeit, hörst …

This week's episode is a response to the question: "Does all of the Bible still apply to us today?" Some might say no and refer to themselves as "New Testament Christians." Others might say yes, and find themselves seeking to follow Christ and feel an obligation to uphold every law and "rule" given in the Old Testament. Who is right? Is there a rig…

WAIT! Don't let the "churchy" word in the topic make you skip this episode. Sure, it's not a word you use all the time, but what it means and what it's referring to is EXTREMELY important. So, just relax and muse with us as we take a look at what some of the ideas are around Jesus and what He accomplished on the cross. Got a question you want answe…

At some point in your life someone called you a "liar, liar, pants on fire." We all hated it - even if it was true at the time. But, what about as an adult? Are we out here still living with our pants burning, or have we come to understanding that lying really isn't all that acceptable. For that matter - is it ever acceptable to lie? This week's mu…

In most school across the country, kids stand up every morning and voice their pledge to the United States. Grownups... well, you might not make a pledge every morning, but does the Bible instruct you to maintain allegiance to your country as part of your faith? Just how "pledged" should your allegiance be? Glad you asked - cause this week we 're m…

Yes - it's the topic that lots of folks love to hate. Only time someone brings up giving money to the church is when the preacher needs a new car, am I right? No. You're not right. But what is right? Should a believer still recognize their expectation to support their church financially or is that an Old Testament sort of thing that doesn't apply t…

Predigt mit Philipper 1,27-2,18 Als Christ will ich mein Leben so leben, dass es Gott ehrt. Aber wie mache ich das? Es gibt genau einen, der dafür als Vorbild taugt – und das ist Jesus.

Predigt mit Galater 2,11-21 „Das hat der aber nicht verdient!“ – ständig denken wir in Kategorien von Verdienst und Leistung. Das ist geradezu ein Markenzeichen unserer Kultur.

Predigt mit Matthäus 16,13-19 Eine der wichtigsten Fragen für jeden Menschen heißt: „Wer bin ich?“ Und es ist heute schwerer denn je, darauf eine Antwort zu finden.

This week's card got Preacher Man in his "talking fast" personality - but that's only cause there's SO MUCH to know and share about why we can trust the Bible today is the Bible that was originally written.

Predigt zum 90. Jahrestag der Barmer Theologischen Erklärung (mit Apostelgeschichte 5,29) Das Verhältnis von Christen zum Staat war schon immer komplex. Manchmal waren Christen eine verfolgte Minderheit. Manchmal waren sie die dominante Mehrheit, die ihre Interessen mit staatlicher Gewalt durchsetzte. Aber welches Verhältnis zu politischer Macht is…

Predigt zum 90. Jahrestag der Barmer Theologischen Erklärung (mit Johannes 10,1-10) Christen wollen anders sein. Wir wollen uns vom Geist Gottes prägen und bestimmen lassen. Aber manchmal ist es gar nicht so leicht zu unterscheiden, welchen Gedanken wir aufnehmen und welche Ideologien wir ablehen sollten. Vor 90 Jahren war die Kirche herausgeforder…

Are you a spiritual person? Are we? This week's episode is all about musing on what it means to be spiritual and how that impacts us as individuals and our involvement in the world.

Predigt mit Hesekiel 37,1-14 Als am ersten Pfingsttag die christliche Gemeinde entstand, sprühte sie vor Leben. Aber warum ist die Kirche dann heute so kraftlos?

Predigt mit 2. Mose 32,1-14 „Anbetung“ ist eines der großen Themen der Bibel. In unserer Gesellschaft dagegen spricht man kaum darüber. Dafür tut man es umso mehr!

Predigt mit Lukas 19,37-40 Musik hat unglaubliche Kraft! Sie kann uns fröhlich stimmen oder betrübt werden lassen. Sie kann gleichermaßen Jubel und tiefen Schmerz ausdrücken. Und sie kann das Evangelium verkündigen. Warum manche Leute das lieber unterdrücken würden, wie du die Verkündigungskraft der Musik für dich nutzen kannst und welche Lieder mi…

Predigt mit Johannes 17,13-26 Alle Welt sehnt sich nach heilen Beziehungen und Gemeinschaft. Leider sieht die Wirklichkeit oft völlig anders aus. Wie es sich anfühlt, zu den „Herausgerufenen“ zu gehören, warum Jesus schon für die Markusgemeinde Minden gebetet hat und wie Einheit immer nur im Kleinen anfangen kann, hörst du in dieser Predigt. Predig…

Do you believe in miracles? Have you ever thought about what counts as miraculous or if simple things are the same sort of miracle as those big, amazing, shocking examples that some people can share?
