Kindled - Motherhood, Work & The Grace We Need For Both

Today I have an excellent conversation with Zee from @narrow.is.the.gate to share. She was gracious enough to share her testimony with me of how God transformed her life. We also discuss: + how we all start out on the broad road that leads to destruction, but that as Christians, we are not meant to stay on that path. + the importance of being in a biblical church + the importance of knowing what God's word says so we can identify lies all around us --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kindledpodcast/support

It's no surprise that objective and absolute standards of morality were long since tossed to the wayside in favor of individual, subjective moral "truth." Recently, though, that individualized "personal ethic" has converted into more of a "morality by popular consensus" as product after book after person after brand gets harassed, cancelled, and condemned as "unfit" for society -- or worse. Natasha Crain and I discuss the how this change has occurred and she offers listeners encouragement for weathering the cultural hurricane we are in as well as preparing your kids for whatever is next.  Sponsor: Leeann Tenbrink with Guaranteed Foods: Get a WEEK OF FREE FOOD when you try their budget and family-friendly food delivery service!

Unless you've been under a rock, you've probably heard about the Enneagram. And you've probably heard people who are both WILDLY for it and WILDLY opposed to it. This episode is something you might not have heard before - the facts. What are the facts of the Enneagram's history? Is it beneficial for Christians in any way? Why or why not? What do we stand to lose or gain by engaging with this tool? Is it truly neutral?  I discuss all this with Ex-Professional Astrologer and New Ager Marcia Montenegro in today's episode.  I challenge you, whether for or against, to listen to this episode in a spirit of openness, with James 1:5 in mind: "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him."

Some say femininity is under attack - and yes, in many ways it is. But in other ways, we're handing it right over to the enemy because we have lost a right understanding of what it truly is, according to God.  I'm discussing just that with Anneliese Louise of the instagram account Feminine Not Feminist.  Sponsor: Leanne Tenbrink with Guaranteed Foods - Get a $100 food credit and a week of free food!

Today I'm chatting with Bob Scott, author of In the Company of Joseph, about big tech, artificial intelligence and what the future of those two things means for Christians in an increasingly hostile world.  It's a big conversation, but it's one we need to be having as we stop to consider how we are living and how we will choose to live in the future.  Leave a review   Subscribe to the podcast: iTunes: http://apple.co/2YSTIXY Spotify: http://spoti.fi/2N3GdCa Android: http://bit.ly/3aLxAnH   Connect with Haley on Social Media: https://twitter.com/kindledpodcast https://www.instagram.com/haleywilliams.kindled https://facebook.com/kindledpodcast   "Kindled Podcast" merchandise: https://kindledpodcast.com/store/   --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kindledpodcast/support

What should we expect from a new administration in terms of public policy? I'm discussing that today with Christina Herrin, Campaign Manager for Free to Choose Medicine.  2020 brought the largest public health crisis in recent history with Covid-19, and as we move into 2021 with a new presidential administration, the future of public health policy is uncertain to say the least.  Christina and I discuss how government does a poor job at providing healthcare, the future of mask and vaccine mandates, how our medical autonomy and liberty is at stake and what we can do to fight for it.  Shownotes at KindledPodcast.com  Leave a review    Subscribe to the podcast: iTunes: : http://apple.co/2YSTIXY Spotify: http://spoti.fi/2N3GdCa Android: http://bit.ly/3aLxAnH   Connect with Haley on Social Media: https://twitter.com/kindledpodcast https://www.instagram.com/haleywilliams.kindled https://facebook.com/kindledpodcast   "Kindled Podcast" merchandise: https://kindledpodcast.com/store/   --- Suppor

This Fall, we watched as the term "pro-life" was hijacked from the movement and pitted against us with the argument that it was not pro-ALL-life. Is this just semantics? Or is it a sign the movement needs a rebrand?  Today, Gabriel Finochio and I discuss being ANTI-ABORTION, rather than pro-life, as well as the desperate need we have for church pastors to step up and lead their congregations, boldly.  Watch on Youtube Shownotes at kindledpodcast.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kindledpodcast/support

Surprise! We're back! Season 3 is here.  And we're starting off with a BANG.

SURPRISE! My Christmas present to you is here - a conversation with Alisha Illian on Perfection.  With the New Year just around the corner, it's all to easy to buy into the lie that if we just eat a little differently or wake up earlier or buy this or drink that, we can be better. More perfect. And that pursuit can leave us frustrated and hopeless if we let it be our ultimate driver and truth.  We're discussing what true Biblical perfection is and how to think about it rightly as followers of Christ.  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kindledpodcast/support

We've spent the last 3 months diving deep into how Christianity intersects with culture from a Biblical worldview. Now it's time to learn how to take that knowledge to the streets of our relationships by discussing Evangelism.  Don't freak out - we're not going to be giving you the latest tactics for how to "win souls to Christ" with street evangelism (though if you want to do that, more power to you!). This is a very guilt-free and practical introduction to what evangelism really looks like in the life of most believers - and it's not what you may think.  You'll be so encouraged by this conversation with Greg Koukl!  Shownotes at kindledpodcast.com.  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kindledpodcast/support

Today my Pastor Jeff Terrell joins me to discuss living life in light of eternity. We need eternal eyes now more than EVER, so this conversation comes at the perfect time.  Jeff shares wisdom from the book of Ecclesiastes on living life backwards. He also provides orthodox Christians with some helpful guard rails for engaging with God's Word.  Episode sponsor: Prepdish Show notes at www.kindledpodcast.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kindledpodcast/support

For the world, belonging is turned upside down from the way God designed it. The belonging movement, led by voices like Brene Brown and Glennon Doyle Melton, tells us true belonging is found in unconditional self-acceptance.  In many ways, this movement isn't much different than Satan's offer in the garden - "Did God really say?" Culture offers us something it doesn't have authority to give - and that's what we explore in this episode.  Sponsor: Kindled Firestarters Join to get a BONUS episode every Friday for $10/month!  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kindledpodcast/support

Join us for this conversation with Dr. Jeff Myers of Summit Ministries on why Christians must demand justice in this election crisis.   From Dr. Myers' article, "As the election crisis drags on and the news is filled with widespread reports of voting irregularities and fraud, confusion and chaos reign. America needs help, and yet people of faith are almost entirely asleep at the wheel. Many feel they did enough by voting. I’ve seen countless people post the meme “God is in control” on their social media pages as if to say, 'I did my part. Whatever happens next is God’s business.' This is bad citizenship and even worse theology." Dr. Myers explains why. To watch this video interview on Youtube, click here.   --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kindledpodcast/support

Abortion is the great, unexamined issue of our time. When we look at the controversies swirling in America, we see that underneath them lurks this issue of abortion, which is the driving force of what is going on, even when it is not mentioned. Danielle and I unpack some of this critical and crucial conversation. We discuss why the conversation on abortion is changing, how information and science is on our side, and dive into a discussion of how many "pro-life" Christians are leaving the traditionally pro-life Republican party to vote Democrat for a number of reasons.  The sponsor is Prepdish.

What do we do when everything we thought we knew and believe is called into question? And how do we work through doubts without going all the way to unbelief?  Alisa Childers shares her deconstruction story and how she found her way back to faith in Christ and the truths of historic Christianity.  Sponsor: H.

  Politics. What are they? And what *should* they be?   This discussion is one many of us have been told is something “polite people” avoid. But judging by the state of relationships in 2020, what we desperately need is help understanding how to think about this biblically as well as discuss ideas (and disagree) without cancelling people.  In this episode, Meagan and I discuss what politics are according to scripture and investigate a new ideology on the left she has dubbed “critical political theory.” If you’ve been wondering why people are cancelling grandma for differing views, this will help explain why.   Episode sponsor: Prepdish  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kindledpodcast/support
