In this long-form edition of the Postscript, we join Seth Keenum from Decatur Baptist Church in a comprehensive devotional look at what it means to walk in the Spirit. 

If God inspired His Word, what happened to those words after they were given?In this PostScript Essentials conversation, Brandon Briscoe sits down with Dr. Alan Shelby to explore the relationship between inspiration, inscription, transmission, preservation, and translation—and what those doctrines mean for our confidence in the Bible we hold today.From a KJV, Bible-believing perspective, this conversation asks whether preservation ended with the original manuscripts or whether God providentially preserved His Word through history, transmission, and translation.Dr. Shelby discusses textual criticism, the history of the English Bible, the King James Bible, Jeremiah 36, the Received Text, and the providential preservation of Scripture.Originally recorded as PostScript Episodes 100 & 101, these two conversations have been brought together into one PostScript Essentials presentation.If God was capable of inspiring His Word, is He also capable of preserving it?Visit http://lfbi.org/learnmore

In this episode of the Ps+ we join Chris Allred again to discuss God's call to ministry on our lives—and how our personal ownership of the ministry God gives us is critical to the trajectory of our lives. 

What does the Bible actually teach about men and women, gender roles, and leadership in the church?In this episode of The Postscript Show, Brandon Briscoe sits down with Thomas Harding, pastor of Portland Gospel Church, to examine the debate between egalitarianism and complementarianism. They discuss biblical authority and hermeneutics, whether Galatians 3:28 teaches that gender distinctions have been erased in Christ, and why the doctrine of creation is foundational to understanding God’s design for men and women.The conversation also examines Jesus’ teaching, Paul’s instructions in Ephesians and 1 Timothy, the qualifications for pastors and deacons, and why Paul’s teaching on gender roles is rooted in creation rather than merely first-century culture.Does complementarianism diminish women? Brandon and Thomas address this question from Scripture, showing how equal value in Christ does not require identical responsibilities. They also discuss how biblical distinctions between men and women allow both to serve the church in meaningful and complementary ways.Finally, they discuss how pastors and church members can hold firmly to biblical convictions while showing grace and compassion toward people wrestling with these questions—and why discipleship and the gospel should remain central.Visit http://lfbi.org/learnmore

For most Christians, military service and pastoral ministry seem like two very different worlds. One is associated with conflict, discipline, and national defense; the other with discipleship, biblical counseling, and the care of souls.Yet for a military chaplain, those worlds meet every single day.In this episode of The Postscript Show, Brandon Briscoe sits down with Lt. Joshua Keatts, Command Chaplain in the United States Navy, to discuss what it means to faithfully minister to sailors during some of life’s most difficult moments—including deployments, combat operations, and the recent conflict involving Iran.Chaplain Keatts shares his testimony of coming to Christ after joining the military, leaving a promising military career to pursue God’s call to ministry, and now serving aboard the USS Bulkeley by preaching the gospel, providing biblical counseling, discipling sailors, and offering hope in the midst of uncertainty.To learn more about chaplaincy in the U.S. Military, please follow the link for more information.Visit http://lfbi.org/learnmore

Physician-assisted suicide is rapidly expanding across the Western world. As more governments embrace "assisted dying," Christians are faced with difficult questions about suffering, dignity, compassion, and the sanctity of human life.In this episode of The Postscript Show, Brandon Briscoe and James Fyffe examine the biblical case against assisted suicide and euthanasia, comparing today's cultural shift with Scripture's teaching that God alone is the giver and taker of life. The discussion explores Canada's MAID program, the moral consequences of redefining human dignity, common arguments in favor of assisted dying, and how Christians should respond with both truth and compassion.Whether you're trying to understand the ethics of physician-assisted suicide or looking for a biblical framework for end-of-life issues, this conversation will help you think clearly from a Christian worldview.If you enjoyed this episode, like the video, subscribe, and share it with someone wrestling with these important questions.Visit https://www.lfbi.org/learnmore
