“If we march into that village and we start trying to persecute people for using poison, something that's very illegal, nobody's going to talk to us. We're not going to find out where the poison came from. We're not going to be able to shut anything down. We should take the approach that people are using poison because they're desperate, because they see no other alternative.” – Andrew Stein Andrew Stein is a wildlife ecologist who spent the past 25 years studying human carnivore conflict from African wild dogs and lions in Kenya and Botswana to leopards and hyenas in Namibia. His work has long focused on finding ways for people and predators to coexist. He is the founder of CLAWS , an organization based in Botswana that's working at the intersection of cutting-edge wildlife research and community driven conservation.

Fun With Biblical Words with Dr. Tom Hobson 44:34

cách đây 3 ngày trước44:34

44:34

Summary: In this engaging conversation, Michael Easley and Dr. Tom Hobson discuss the importance of Biblical word studies, highlighting how the original Greek and Hebrew words enrich our understanding of scripture. Dr. Hobson, a theologian and author of Fun with Biblical Words , explores the nuances of over 60 biblical words, revealing how translations can sometimes obscure their deeper meanings. The discussion emphasizes the significance of context in interpreting words, with Dr. Hobson using the example of the word "trunk," which can refer to anything from an elephant's trunk to a car’s trunk, to illustrate how meaning is shaped by context. The conversation also highlights the need for a deeper engagement with scripture through the study of original languages. The conversation underscores the value of studying the Bible in its original languages, leading to a more nuanced understanding and a stronger connection with God’s word. Takeaways: Word studies can enhance understanding of scripture. Usage of words determines their meaning in context. The original languages of the Bible provide deeper insights. Language plays a crucial role in theology. The Bible should remain accessible to all readers. Accessible resources can empower individuals to engage with scripture more deeply. The joy of discovering biblical meanings can be profound and transformative.

cách đây 10 ngày trước49:21

49:21

Summary: In this conversation, Michael Easley and Dr. Calvin Beisner discuss the intersection of faith, environmental stewardship, and poverty. They explore Beisner's journey into stewardship, the founding of the Cornwall Alliance, and the importance of prioritizing human needs in environmental discussions. They also touch on the recent publication of Megan Basham's book, 'Shepherds for Sale,' which critiques the evangelical environmental movement and the influence of money in faith-based organizations. The dialogue emphasizes the need for accountability and critical engagement within the Christian community. Dr. Beisner and Dr. Easley discuss the importance of critical thinking and reading in developing a Christian worldview. They emphasize the need for Christians to engage deeply with scripture and literature to sharpen their minds. The discussion also delves into the green agenda, exploring the implications of environmentalism from a biblical perspective, including the trade-offs involved in energy production and the impact on the poor. Takeaways: Human beings should be the top priority of all life. Poverty is a tragic reality that many have never seen. The principles of the Cornwall Declaration remain applicable today. Public figures should be held accountable for their statements. Critique should be expected in public discourse. Discipline in thought is essential for Christians. Logic is a vital tool in understanding faith. We need to pay attention to sharpening our thinking. Critical thinking skills are lost in most education. Social media contributes to a decline in reading. Reading a real Bible is essential for understanding scripture. Engaging with literature enhances critical thinking. The green agenda often overlooks human welfare. Trade-offs exist in environmental policies. Fossil fuels are crucial for modern life. Rising energy costs disproportionately affect the poor.

In this conversation, Michael Easley interviews Samuel Smadja, offering a compelling Christian perspective on the land of Israel and its significance in God’s redemptive plan. Samuel unpacks the unconditional covenant with the Jewish people, explores the spiritual warfare surrounding Israel, and reflects on how recent conflicts have impacted the nation. He also discusses the shifting dynamics in the Middle East and the prophetic importance of these changes. With passion and insight, Samuel highlights the beauty of the land and encourages believers to consider visiting Israel for a deeper understanding of its spiritual and historical significance. Takeaways: The return of the Jewish people to the land is a miracle that cannot be overlooked. The land of Israel is deeply intertwined with the biblical narrative and God's promises. Understanding the unconditional covenant is crucial for grasping God's relationship with Israel. Recent conflicts have transformed Israel's national identity and unity. The spirit of hatred against Israel is seen as a supernatural force. The importance of grace in the Christian faith is emphasized over works-based salvation. The recent war has led to a surge of unity and support among Israelis. The beauty of Israel is profound and connects deeply with those who visit. The Middle East is undergoing significant changes that may lead to prosperity. Visiting Israel is encouraged as a way to connect with its rich spiritual heritage.

There is a need for a clear understanding of gender roles in society. American youth are experiencing high levels of unhappiness compared to other nations.

The Transformative Power of the Holy Spirit: Sherm Brand 47:17

cách đây 4 weeks trước47:17

47:17

Sherman Brand joins Michael Easley for a compelling conversation about faith, the Holy Spirit, and the transformative power of God in the Christian life. Sherm shares his journey of overcoming apathy, learning to trust God's provision, and finding purpose in suffering. Together, they explore the necessity of dependence on God, the depth of His love as a Father, and the vital role of community in spiritual growth. Their discussion touches on the ongoing struggle with sin and shame, the call to live out faith through action, and the daily challenge of trusting God. They also highlight the importance of confession and forgiveness, contrasting the dangers of legalism with the freedom found in God's grace. Ultimately, their conversation points to the believer's identity in Christ and the power of authentic community in fostering healing and lasting transformation. Takeaways: The Lord loves to do the dishes with you. We underestimate the beauty of Christ living in us by His Holy Spirit. Apart from Christ, we can do nothing. We should not go by feelings in our spiritual journey. The cares of this world can choke the word and hinder growth. God wants to take care of us and provide for our needs. Suffering is often included in our growth process. He wants to live His life through us, guiding our actions. The term 'co-worker' in Romans highlights the importance of collaboration in faith. Finding God's work and participating is essential for spiritual growth. Trusting God is foundational for navigating life's challenges. Confession is a vital part of the Christian life, leading to forgiveness. Legalism can be more harmful than outright sinfulness. Shame is a tool of the enemy, not of God. Our identity as children of God is paramount and should be valued. Community is crucial for healing and accountability in faith. We often underestimate the power of God's grace in our lives. Living in constant awareness of our sin helps us rely on God's strength. Resources mentioned: Serve As a Verb Podcast Watch the highlights and full version of this interview on our Youtube channel .

Speaking Truth to Power: Stephen Mansfield 37:42

cách đây 5 weeks trước37:42

37:42

Michael and Stephen discuss the significant influence of the Episcopal Church on national religious ceremonies in the United States, questioning why a declining denomination holds such power. They explore the implications of speaking truth to power, particularly in the context of religious leaders addressing political figures. The discussion also delves into the challenges and responsibilities of Christians in politics, emphasizing the need for integrity and authenticity. Finally, they consider potential changes to how national religious events are conducted, advocating for a more inclusive representation of diverse denominations. Takeaways: The Episcopal Church's influence on national ceremonies is disproportionate to its size. There is a need for a broader representation of denominations in national religious events. Speaking truth to power can be a double-edged sword, requiring wisdom and discernment. Christians in politics face unique challenges and must navigate their faith in a self-promoting environment. The importance of caring for the underprivileged is a common ground for many religious leaders. Historical context is crucial in understanding the current religious landscape in America. The conversation highlights the need for integrity among Christian leaders in political spaces. There is a call for a shift in how national religious ceremonies are conducted to reflect a more diverse representation. Mansfield emphasize the importance of teaching history rather than erasing it. Engagement in politics can lead to significant change, especially for younger generations.…
