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. Our youth pastor lamented in a recent sermon, “We invite folks to a location rather than to the Person of Jesus Christ. That captures perfectly what I have felt all along. Too often, Bible believing Christians make it a habit to invite folks to a location. I decided years ago that I will never invite anyone to church without first tryin...

Was Jesus Racist?

Episode 36

A woke LGBTQ activist who claims to be a pastor recently took to TikTok to teach his 132,300 followers that Jesus was a racist who repented once a Gentile spoke truth to power. But is this actually true? Did Jesus use a racial slur? Was he racist? What does the passage actually say?

Join us on this episode of the Removing Barriers Podcast where we evaluate these outrageous claims and filter them through the sieve of scripture to find out what Jesus was actually saying and what that means for us today.

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.

Was Jesus Black?

This blog has been permanently relocated to https://www.removingbarriers.net Redirecting in seconds... Episode 38 In this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast, we discuss the subject of Jesus' ethnicity. In a recent interview, CNN anchor Don Lemon declared that in order to heal America's apparent racism problem, we must acknowledge that Jesus was black, or at least brown. He went on to encourage families to hang pictures of this Jesus in their homes, teaching children what he calls "the truth." Is he right? What does the bible say about the ethnicity of Jesus? Does it even matter? What problems can be healed by Jesus' ethnicity? Join us as we explore this topic and discover the truth about Jesus' ethnicity.

Introduction to the Removing Barriers Podcast

This blog has been permanently relocated to https://www.removingbarriers.net Redirecting in seconds... With the civil unrest,  heightened political climate, changing American culture, and the inability to act ually go door-to-door witnessing due to COVID-19, my wife and I decided to start a podcast with the sole purpose of sharing the gospel by addressing the many obstacles preventing others from seeing the cross of Jesus clearly. In Acts 2, Peter preached to the Jews and presented to them Jesus Christ the Messiah. This was because the Jews already knew about God the creator, sin, and sin's consequences. The barrier that needed to be removed was whether Jesus was the Messiah. Contrast that with Acts 17, where Paul preached to the Athenians and defended the faith by proving that the unknown God they ignorantly worshiped was the creator of the world. Notice that while the message of the...
