A Warm Invitation to Church

This blog has been permanently relocated to https://www.removingbarriers.net Redirecting in seconds... Matthew 4:19 (And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.) “I do not care if you ever darken the doors of my church.” I would often say this to folks I am sharing the gospel with.

Christians and Firearms

 Episode 6 

In this episode of the Removing Barriers Podcast we had “MD” join us to talk about firearms, the 2nd amendment, and gun ownership. Discussion about firearms has been highly politicized, ownership of weapons are at times are looked down upon, and it can also be barrier to sharing the gospel. 

We looked at some of the basics of firearms and talked a bit about the AR15, M16, and other firearms. We discussed whether it is a God-given right to own a firearm, and whether gun ownership demonstrates lack of trust in God. Furthermore, we discussed mass shootings and what can be done about them. 

We ended the episode with the only solution to mass shooting: the changing of human heart through salvation in Jesus Christ.

Ravi Zacharias and Accountability for Ministry Leaders

This blog has been permanently relocated to https://www.removingbarriers.net Redirecting in seconds... Episode 34 When Ravi Zacharias died he left a devastating web of abused women, betrayed friends and family, and disappointed Christians in his wake. Posthumous investigations brought to the limelight his secret life of unrepentant sin, and for millions of professing Christians, hindsight became 20/20 as they tried to pick up the pieces. What did we miss? How should we respond? How can we be more vigilant moving forward? Pastor Todd helps us tackle these questions and more on this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast.
