Confessional Collective

This week, Chris and Aaron discuss what it looks like to be a faithful shepherd in light of recent events.

We're back! This week the guys take a look at Samuel Miller's sermon, The Importance of Mature Preparatory Study for the Ministry. Is seminary required? What about people who don't have that available to them as a resource? How do we navigate a world where it seems that everyone is an ‘expert'?  

What does it look like to live before the face of God? The guys discuss what this looks like regarding sanctification as well as the enjoyment and worship of God.

This week the guys discuss the important privilege and responsibility of preaching the word. What should preparation to preach look like? Who is called to preach? How do you pronounce Brian Chapell's last name? We've got answers.

This week, the guys have a special guest from 20schemes in Edinburgh, Scotland, Sharon Dickens. She has been involved in women's ministry for over 15 years. She shares some wisdom on the why, the who, and the how of ministering to women.

This week, the guys discuss the qualifications for a church elder. What responsibilities does an elder have? What might disqualify one from eldership?

This week, Aaron is in Middlesbrough, England visiting with Ian Williamson, the pastor of New Life Church. In this episode, they discuss the spiritual culture of England and more specifically, what it is like to plant a church in an urban poor area.

Alliteration reigns supreme in this episode! This week, the discussion centers around the importance of discipleship and church disciple, specifically in the local church. Are the guys taking on too much? You be the judge.

What does it mean to do something “to the glory of God”? It's a phrase we toss around a lot, but do we really consider what that looks like. The guys discuss vocation, recreation, and the Indianapolis Colts new head coach.
