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. My wife Jay did not like the tone of that statement and asked me to stop saying it. Tone aside, however, I mean it. I first said it to a person who accused me of evangelizing because I want more people to come to my church so offerings can increase.

Jacob Blake and the Value of Compliance

Episode 26

Could the shooting of Jacob Blake have been prevented if the officers had disengaged? On the other hand, would the situation have played out differently had Jacob complied? In this episode of the Removing Barriers, we discuss the circumstances surrounding the shooting of Jacob Blake and the values that compliance can buy a person when dealing with the police. 

We also looked at other officer shooting incidents and discuss whether compliance would have changed the outcome.

Is compliance to law enforcement officers a bad thing? Does it change the outcome of the situation? Listen to this episode as we discuss Jacob Blake and the Value of Compliance. We ended the episode with the inevitable submission and compliance to Jesus Christ. You can either submit to him to as savior today or submit and comply to his lordship as a judge later. Which will it be?

Nika Holbert: A Soul for which Christ Died

This blog has been permanently relocated to https://www.removingbarriers.net Redirecting in seconds... Episode 35 In this episode of the Removing Barriers Podcast, we discussed the shooting incident involving Nika Holbert and officer Baker.  Rather than focusing on facts versus misinformation, or even on who was right or wrong based on those facts, we focused on the human beings involved. Human life is precious. So precious, in fact, that God sent His only begotten Son to die for us. In this episode we addressed the calloused comments made about Nika, the dangers of looking at the facts and neglecting the human being behind the facts, the cultural aspects that may lead to people like Nika, what things can be done to reach folks like Nika, and what she should represent to Bible believing Christians.
