Any child of the 80s will remember the sitcom, "Who's the Boss?" My wife and I will always laugh whenever that comes up, and we both say, "ANGELA!" Now you may disagree with me on that, but when it comes to the Church, we must get clear on how it gets built... where the responsibility lies... where the buck stops. Without clarity, we fall into error, and it can set us up for serious failure in doctrine and practice. While I don't discuss those specific pitfalls in this episode, I do discuss the different parts that are played and where they fall in terms of effectiveness and assign credit appropriately, scripturally. Dive into this fascinating quick study with me to find out if anyone is responsible for "build[ing] that." --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/toservemankind/support

Many times, a believer will wonder what God is up to, not realizing the multitude of dimensions He is operating in on our behalf... ALL of our behalf, simultaneously. As we seek Him, asking for wisdom, for answers, and all He has promised us in His Word, we often discovered that our prayers have been answered long ago... when we first sought Him. Oh, the clarity that comes in His presence.

"Sure, I love You, Jesus, absolutely!" (Denies Jesus.) Jesus: "Do you love Me? Do you love Me? DO YOU... love Me?" How do any of us KNOW IF we actually love Jesus or not?

Continuing with a theme of overburdened and overtired, what are we supposed to do about it besides rest in The Lord? Surely there is more to being a Christian than sitting around... Of course this is intended a bit tongue in cheek, but only to an extent. What makes for a Jesus-pleasing disciple? Especially when we find ourselves so overloaded?

People are overloaded, tired and need rest.  Thankfully, Jesus came and promised rest, as a gift and as a reward.  When we give weary people God's true Word, and invite them into relationship with Him, we relieve heavy burdens.  And it is the responsibility of every believer to do just that. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/toservemankind/support

Christmastime can be warm and beautiful or harsh and cold and bleak.  Never minimizing the seasons we all endure from time to time, we are called to faith in the God who sees and responds to our calls on Him.  We are also meant, as Christians, to come alongside one another to weather the storms of life, in more tangible and close ways, until the warmth of the sun returns and melts away the difficult season. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/toservemankind/support

Let's be honest, God calls us to things we don't jump right to... so we discuss how to overcome complacency, laziness, and even rebellion, giving attention to God's Word/instruction and honoring Him with our willing obedience.  Real stories from real people, applicable to your life and your situation. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/toservemankind/support

When Jesus makes something, it is GOOOOOOOOOD!  Just like when God called His creation of the earth and everything in it good.  It lacked nothing.  It was complete.  It is good.  Jesus makes and remakes in the best way possible, when we are willing to follow His plans obediently in faith. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/toservemankind/support

When Jesus says, "Come Get Some," we can be sure that there are some to be got!  We have to get on board with Jesus' plan... obedient to His instructions - and we will catch like we've never caught before.  Prepare to catch a bunch of truth, a bunch of faith, a bunch of "men" = disciples. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/toservemankind/support

As you live your life as a Christian, at home, in your neighborhood, at school, at work, at play - do you yet have the faith to speak boldly and see the signs and wonders that follow those who truly believe that God will do what He said He will do?  Or are you timid and fruitless?  God wants you to be bold, to speak, and become fruitful and multiply, all in the name of Jesus. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/toservemankind/support
