Biblical Principles Applied > Spiritual Leadership

Our calling as men, to help others flourish, means helping our daughters and granddaughters build confidence in the way God created them to be female. Gender differences are profoundly related to our sense of identity. Before helping men know how to winsomely explain the biblical worldview of gender, the podcast identifies two big obstacles that routinely prevent others from being open to the biblical worldview. This episode then articulates the glory of God’s design of humans as male and female. It then suggests questions men might asked their daughters or granddaughters to open their hearts to the biblical view of gender

Have you ever considered that in only the third chapter of the whole Bible, human beings are taught that we have a spiritual enemy who hates us and constantly seeks to lead us down a path to destruction—i.e. rebellion against God. In fact, we don’t have just one spiritual enemy but a whole host of them! Paul writes, We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. The only way to overpower this enemy is by using the spiritual resources that are ours in Christ. One of these is called the belt of truth. This episode explains what it means, practically, to put on this piece of spiritual armor.

The resurrection of Christ’s physical body speaks volumes about the meta story of God’s plan for creation and our part in it. Understanding that story has very practical consequences for our everyday lives. It answers significant questions that most humans have: Why am I here? What is God’s purpose for my life? Why is the world so broken? It has great potential to fuel our passion to follow Christ's mission for us.
