Mission Briefing 41: The Truth About Judgment & Discernment - Most Misinterpreted Topic in The Bible

Goose challenges the common misconception that Christians should never judge. Instead, he argues that Matthew 7:1-5 teaches the importance of fair and self-reflective judgment. He emphasizes the need for discernment as Christians, referencing scriptures like Hebrews 5:14, Philippians 1:9-10, and Hebrews 4:12. Discernment is the ability to judge well, and he encourages viewers to use it to distinguish good from evil and test the spirits. Christians are called to judge others by the same standard they want to be judged by, and Goose emphasizes the importance of avoiding hypocritical judgment. Overall, he encourages the use of discernment and good judgment in interpreting scripture and leading spiritually.

Ep 175: How Great Men Grieve

Video
Men’s Alliance

Johanna Stamps, a licensed grief counselor, talks about how we have to acknowledge grief and mourn in order to continue to move towards God’s vision for our life.  Many items can be lost such as a job, pets, friendships, and marriages.  As men, we need to take time and space to let our brain catch up to the event that has happened. Johanna shares her 7 steps included below and talks about the power of writing a closure letter on the grief you are going through. How to connect with Johanna:johannastamps.com804 944 [email protected] Men’s Alliance | How Great Men Grieve “If you loved it, and lost it, then grieve it” Grief is like an epic hike through a desolate land. 7 Steps of the Journey: 1. TRAILHEAD: AT THE BEGINNING OF THE JOURNEY a. Set the intention to heal, to integrate b. Look for a sign you are grieving: Cognitive, Affective, Physical, Spiritual c. You ONLY work where grief is coming up, that’s the beginning d. Feel the pain (No pain, No gain)... It brings healing 2. LOOK AT THE MAP (Pssst... it’s a magical map) a. The magical map only appears as you walk forward in your grief b. It’s completely unique to you (circumstance, personality, etc.) c. Dispel misconceptions (don’t look for stages) 3. BEGIN WALKING a. Small doses as it comes up b. One thing at a time c. We cannot grieve all at one time. We wouldn’t be able to take it! d. Be creative... example: recognizing important dates (or your body will tell you) 4. GATHER WITH OTHERS - DON’T GRIEVE IN ISOLATION a. Grieving is internal - Mourning is your external or public experience of grief b. ESSENTIAL - speak about the experience of the loss, memories, etc. c. Moves from the head to the heart (READ THIS AGAIN!!!) d. Look for the 1⁄3 who are good with grief (most likely someone who has dealt with their own grief) 5. STOP FOR REST a. Sustenance for your epic journey b. Maybe learn to rest for the first time 6. EXERCISE JOY AND PAIN MUSCLE a. Like any normal ruck or hike there is joy with the pain b. Practice this often when you are grieving 7. GET TO THE LOOKOUT a. Reflect on how far you have come (when you look at the loss with less pain) b. See parts of yourself that are becoming whole again - integrating the loss c. This is OFTEN understanding who you are (e.g. identity) Sponsor: Tom 'Doc' Love CFP®, CRPC®, CRPS® [email protected] Craig Heah.

Ep 48: Don't Fear Death

Video
Men’s Alliance

In 1948 C.S. Lewis warned against being afraid of an atomic bomb, because we were all certain to die anyways, and there is always a disease, accident, or war in every period of history.  Today, these words are just as true.  We can't allow our fears to keep us on the sideline.  When death finds us, let it find us living boldly as barbarian ambassadors for Christ!

Ep 14: Equip Your Kids

Video
Men’s Alliance

Our kids are a lot smarter than most churches think.  And we should teach them the deep answers to tough questions.  Set them up to know what they believe and why.  Demand more from your youth group than just games and pizza.  If you want your kid to have a foundation that cannot be shaken by their atheists college professors than give them the apologetics they crave now.  Trust me, they can handle it.  Recommended Books: I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be An Atheist - Frank Turek Cold Case Christianity - J.
