Ep 127: Confusing Bible Verses

This week Chris "Knuckles" Luck rejoins the show to discuss confusing bible verses. Listen to Knuckles previous podcast episode War Stories 2: Hells Angels. Greg Koukl says "Never read a bible verse. Instead always read a paragraph at least". The Bible contains many different styles of writing such as: biography, poetry, letters, and history. We have to avoid taking verses out of context from the Bible and applying verses to our life if they were written for others. Always continue to learn more about the context of the verses, we do this by talking with other trusted Christians and reading commentaries such as the ones listed below. Suggested Bible Commentaries: Warren Wiersbe Matthew Henry John MacArthur Wayne Grudem --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Mission Briefing 45: 2 Things You Need, 1 Thing You Don't

Video
Men’s Alliance

You signed up for a cool manly weekend doing burpees and getting yelled at by an ex-Seal? Cool! Love that for you. Will that help you be a spiritual leader and godly example for your family? Not necessarily. There is a short list of things that men need to understand their purpose in this world while getting the support they need from a tribe of God-fearing brothers so they can lead their families in the right direction, and in this Mission Briefing, Goose shares exactly what those things are. Here are the main points: - Every Christian man needs a tribe for support. - Training is essential, not just reading. - Virtual communities are not sufficient. - Practical training is crucial for spiritual leadership. - Weekend experiences do not equate to real growth. - You need to practice to share your faith effectively. - Isolation can lead to crises without support. - Building a tribe should happen before storms hit. - Men's Alliance focuses on real-life applications of faith.

Ambassador Training 1: Relativism, Pluralism & Scientism

Video
Men’s Alliance

We're called to be Ambassador's for Christ (2 Cor 5:20) but how can we do that well if we don't know how to respond to the most common objections that the world has? In Round #1 of Ambassador Training, we'll look at each of the following objections to Christianity: Relativism - "There is no such thing as absolute truth. You have yours and I have mine." Pluralism - "All paths lead to God, there is more than one correct way." Scientism - "Only science yields truth; religion is merely a matter of opinion."

Our Response to Tragedy

Video
Men’s Alliance

An absolute tragedy in America as Charlie Kirk has gone to be with the Lord. A godly father, husband, and leader that consistently spoke the truth of Jesus to a truth-hating world. Thank you for all the seeds you’ve planted and may God be glorified even in the darkest of times.
