Ep. 714 - Helping Pastors Lead Their Flock by Leaning on Jesus and His Principles - Scott Thomas

November 19, 2024 • Tina Griffin

Pastors face a difficult battle today: how can they lead their congregation with godly courage and humility? How can they reach the unchurched in the community without sacrificing depth? Scott Thomas has been a pastor for 44 years and wrote The Gospel Shaped Leader: Leaning on Jesus to Shepherd His People. Over his years of leadership, Scott has cultivated skills like empathy, listening, and servant leadership to practically address the needs of others, tackle spiritual challenges, and grow his ministry without sacrificing the gospel or Scripture. "We grow by spending time with Jesus," he says. We are called to abide, rest, and sit with Christ; in that relationship with the Son, leaders find their foundation, their peace, and their compass when leading their churches.

TAKEAWAYS

Paul sets an example for how Christian leaders and disciples can exercise emotional intelligence, which is wisdom applied skillfully

We can extend grace to those who are least qualified to receive it

Scott's book talks about not only his triumphs, but also his leadership failures - and how he learned from these experiences

Connecting with and serving others in your church and community is Jesus’ way of discipleship

Ep. 715 - Learn Hebrew to Understand the Context of the Bible and Holy Land History - Melissa Briggs

November 20, 2024 • Tina Griffin

How does the Hebrew language tie into the theme of servanthood? Melissa Briggs has a few ideas! Melissa is the founder of Explore Hebrew. She has studied the language for years and knows how deeply the word of God is rooted in this language that has shaped the history of the Holy Land. While Hebrew might seem intimidating to learn, Melissa shares how well the language is organized, and how it can help us understand the historical context of the Bible on an intrinsic level. She highlights some important Hebrew words, like “Dai,” which means “enough” or “sufficient.” This is how we should lean on Christ. He is enough for us! His grace is sufficient. “I’m not what I do, what I earn, what I make - I am who the Creator of the universe says that I am,” Melissa reminds us. TAKEAWAYS When we are connected with our Creator, we know that He IS enough Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus and stay in the Word daily to remain grounded and be ready, willing, and available to serve Him The good news of Christ is even better than we will ever truly comprehend The false summits of life are short-lived, but in Jesus, there is eternal satisfaction 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/3rg5kgj Hebrew Course (get $70 off with code COUNTERCULTURE): https://explorehebrew.thinkific.com/http://thinkific.com 🔗 CONNECT WITH MELISSA BRIGGS Website: https://www.explorehebrew.co.uk/http://www.explorehebrew.co.uk Facebook: https://bit.ly/48vgbxr YouTube: https://bit.ly/3z7aetw 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Jacob’s Ladder: https://jacobsladder.us/give/ TruPlay (get 30% off with code Tina30): https://truplay.games/counterculturemom TUVU (sign up for free 30-day trial): https://www.tuvu.com/tina VidAngel (get first month for $1 with code TINA): https://bit.ly/4dpg2vt 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/counterculturemom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/fpmccmshow 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageccm 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2023 Recap & 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/ccm23impactreport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Ep. 713 - Short-Circuit the CBDC to Protect Privacy and Financial Freedom - Catherine Austin Fitts

November 18, 2024 • Tina Griffin

Are we staring into the abyss of a future economic collapse? According to Catherine Austin Fitts - the president of Solari Report and a financial expert with global experience - she’s more worried about a “financial coup d'etat.” She explains how secret government systems are working to solidify a central banking control system with which they could manipulate digital currency, which could then be tracked and traced - and withheld from anyone for any reason. Digital currency and government-funded surveillance is part of how these globalists control the masses. “We need to reverse-engineer this coup,” Catherine says. She talks about the potential future dangers of a digital currency, how it can track every minute of our lives, and whether Americans should pull their money out of big banks. TAKEAWAYS Warnings against the digital identification collection of Real ID Build and maintain a successful relationship with a great bank that’s loyal to its customers Digital money is programmable - globalists can program it to do whatever they want and decide to block us from using our finances Central bankers began taking control of fiscal policy in the mid-1990s 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/3rg5kgj Cross-Border Payment video: https://bit.ly/4fsvrur IMF Director on Financial Inclusion video: https://bit.ly/3yql5ep President of MN CBDC video: https://bit.ly/3uu4gjz Where to Stash Your Cash video: https://bit.ly/3oadttq Financial Rebellion video: https://bit.ly/3yqxaaw Control Grid 101 video: https://bit.ly/4farb0z Reject Real ID - Avoid QR Codes video: https://bit.ly/40pon9o 🔗 CONNECT WITH CATHERINE AUSTIN FITTS Website: https://home.solari.com/ X: https://x.com/solari_the YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thesolarireporthttp://www.youtube.com/@thesolarirepor 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Rescue 1 Global: https://rescue1global.org/counter-culture-mom-show/ Restore Patch: https://bit.ly/ccmpatch Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ Jacob’s Ladder: https://jacobsladder.us/give/ 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/counterculturemom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/fpmccmshow 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageccm 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2023 Recap & 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/ccm23impactreport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Rod is the author of multiple articles and books, and he is also a speaker and pastor with many years of experience dealing with the issue of relationships, gratitude, and remorse. He discusses things like entitlement, gratitude, victimization, and loving our neighbors in a rich and fulfilling way. “Our relationships with people is such a central part of what we are,” Rod says. He also gives advice for those who want to model a great lifestyle of relational love for their children. “Gratitude actually flows out of our own gratitude to God,” he shares. TAKEAWAYS The virtue of gratitude can open many doors in life, and we must work to express gratitude more often The three phrases Rod discusses are: “Thank you. I’m Sorry. Tell Me More.” Rod encourages Christians to “embody a way of being” rather than simply talking about action Connect with your neighbor and show them Christ’s love 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/3rg5kgj Thank You.
