We’ll tell what we would do, but what would YOU do? Listen in and play along!

Winter Is Coming! Are You Prepped?

It’s just a few weeks away! No matter where you live, these upcoming winter months remind us that preparing for whatever comes our way in the freezing months ahead is a good thing.  Sometimes we can get so wrapped up in preparedness that it can become an idol. We have a God whose plans, whose providence, whose will is not going to be thwarted. Enjoy this throwback episode from a winter past…

Exposing John and Lisa Bevere

In this episode we are covering a very important discernment discussion on a popular couple who is deceiving so many people around the world. Their names are John and Lisa Bevere, and Michelle Lesley recently sat down with our good friend Dave Jenkins on his podcast called Contending for the Word to talk about why you shouldn’t be following these false teachers. Dave has graciously allowed us to bring this episode to our audience because many women follow the Beveres.

What You’ll Hear on This Episode

  • Concerns about John’s understanding of biblical repentance
  • What biblical repentance entails and means for the non-Christian and the Christian.
  • The dangers of deliverance ministry and why this teaching is so concerning.
  • The dangers of “legal rights” and the security the Christian has because of Christ.

Elections and the Freedom to Choose

If you thought we were going to be talking about the Doctrines of Grace, we’re sorry to disappoint you, but that’s not the kind of election and choosing we’re going to be discussing today. With the 2024 Presidential election just days away, we’re going to talk about the freedom we have in America to choose our President and other governmental leaders. We’ll talk about voting, the election, the candidates, and a Christian response no matter who wins on November 5.

Dying, Death, and Funerals- Part 2

Welcome to part 2 of our 3 part series on Dying, Death, and Funerals. Death can be a scary, painful thing, but it’s our desire that this series will remind you of the hope we have in Christ. Today, we’re going to talk about how to handle some of the practicalities of death and funerals, plus some thoughts on ministering to the bereaved. And, of course, as Christians, the Bible will also inform how we handle those practical details.

Dying, Death, and Funerals- Part 1

Today, we’re embarking on a 3 episode series talking about a subject a lot of people don’t like to talk about: death. It’s sad, it can be scary and physically painful, and it’s permanent, but it’s important for Christians to have a biblical perspective on death. In part 1, we’re going to look at what the Bible says about death, what we should believe about death, and how to biblically navigate some issues surrounding death that the Bible doesn’t talk about.

Off the Cuff!

Amy and Michelle wrap up this season of a Word Fitly Spoken by sharing some personal thoughts we hope will edify you in your walk with Jesus. We’ve both been navigating some seasons in our life that we thought we’d share, and how we’ve been going to God’s Word to share what Scripture has to say about the joys and the trials of walking worthy.

Note: We are once again taking a break from podcasting for this summer to rest in the Lord and focus on family priorities. We hope you enjoy some of our many older podcasts here. We will also post on our social media if you would like to keep in touch. We are planning to return to producing new episodes for you in late August.

Love in Christ,

Amy and Michelle

Heroines of Holiness

What is holiness, and what can the Bible teach us about how to walk out holiness in our day to day lives? In this episode, we’ll be taking a look at several “sisters from Scripture” who have set a good example of various aspects of holiness for us. We want to be sure that we’re learning from their example, and setting a good example of holiness for one another today.

Discernment vs Twisted Scripture

We see these pseudo-Christian events and movements all the time: Asbury, Bethel, the Enneagram, IF:Gathering, ReVoice… and on and on it goes. And many of the same Scriptures are trotted out and twisted mercilessly to defend them.

These Scriptures and principles could be applied to a number of things past and present, and they will surely be pulled out and dusted off the next time a so called “Christian” event, idea, or fad pops up, so let’s take a look at them and untangle them so we’ll all be ready to explain what Scripture really says. Because the next “Asbury” – or something like it – is right around the corner.

Christians and Pornography: What’s going on in your mind?

On this throwback episode of A Word Fitly Spoken, Amy and Michelle are covering a topic that’s a little sensitive – pornography – and even though we’re not going to be graphic in any way, this episode might be one you’d rather listen to without the kids around.

Pornography is such a plague on society in general, and, unfortunately, even Christian men and women have been tempted into using it. What can you do if your spouse is addicted to these images, or is having an emotional affair? What if you’re the one who is caught in the snare of sexual immorality?

As always, we’ll be looking first and foremost at what the Bible has to say, since the Bible is our authority as Christians.

Resources:

Scriptures teaching that using pornography is a sin and Scriptures about contentment (be sure to study all of these in context)

Easter: The Passion, the Crucifixion, the Resurrection

Easter, or Resurrection Sunday, if you prefer, is upon us. It’s all about the resurrection of Christ from the dead. But, as you know, there’s no resurrection without a crucifixion. Jesus had to lay down His life before He could take it up again. And that’s what we’re talking about in this episode as we approach Easter – Jesus’ suffering, or “passion” as it’s sometimes called, and His death, burial, and resurrection.

Welcome to part 2 of our 3-part series on growing older. There’s all kinds of advice out there for how to be a godly wife and how to raise your children. But rarely do you hear anything about how becoming a widow changes your life and your identity, or how much it will change your life when your children grow up and leave home, or what it’s like to grow older as a single woman. Aging really is a huge adjustment to a new season of life. In this episode we’ll be talking about some of the practical aspects of growing older.

Love And Marriage!

Hollywood marriages last about as long as peanut butter cups in a bowl full of raisins. Not much of a shelf life, and not based on Christ.

The Bible has a lot to say about what “real” marriages look like. With more than 60 years of marriage experience between them, Michelle and Amy discuss biblical love and godly marriages, and what they’ve learned, in this sweet throwback episode.

The Pew: The State of Women’s Ministry- Part 2

Last October, LifeWay Research released a study called The State of Ministry to Women. They surveyed 1,000 female churchgoers and 842 women’s ministry leaders “aiming to assess the state of women’s ministry, with a focus on acknowledging progress and identifying areas for further development.”

In part 1 of this episode of The Pew, we discussed the results of the survey of the women’s ministry leaders. Tonight, in part 2, we’re going to take a look at the results of the survey that was administered to the women churchgoers.

Holy Habits for the New Year: Abolition for Women

Lots of people make New Year’s resolutions that tend to fizzle out within a few weeks or months. Instead, we want to introduce to you some holy habits you can integrate into your walk with the Lord. Last year’s holy habits were more about private sanctification in our own one on one relationship with Christ. This year’s habits are more outwardly focused on ministering to others. And one of the holy habits we want to encourage you to consider “doing” this year is abortion abolition.

How to talk to your church leaders about false teachers

We’re taking you way back into our archives today while Amy and Michelle attend to family matters. We think you’ll really like this episode from October 2019, as it’s one of our most popular episodes of all time:
Over the last few episodes, we’ve been talking about the topic of discernment – how to handle things when we encounter false teachers and false doctrine.
In our “Doing Discernment” episode, we took a look at how to determine if a teacher is trustworthy and whether or not you should be following him or her. In our “Words with Friends: How to contend with loved ones” episode, we talked about how to approach and gently warn a friend who’s following a false teacher.
But what about when false teachers or false doctrine impacts your church? What’s the right and biblical way to address it? Michelle and Amy discuss how to talk to your church leaders about false teachers.

AWFS’s Evangelical Resolutions Wish List

Enjoy this throwback episode about New Year’s Resolutions! We usually don’t make resolutions, BUT, just for fun, we thought we’d share some resolutions we wish some of the celebrity teachers would make for 2024! As Proverbs 17:22 says, “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine.” We hope you enjoy the humor in these in-jest resolutions.

The Women of Christmas

 The biblical story of Jesus’ birth would look and sound – and be – very different without the important role godly women played in welcoming our incarnate Savior to earth. Tonight, we’re going to open up our Bibles and take a look at the women of the very first Christmas story – Elizabeth, Anna, and Mary – and their example to us as Christian women.

God Doesn’t Whisper to Me, Either

We recently aired an interview about extra-biblical revelation: “God Doesn’t Whisper, with Jim Osman”.  Many of you commented and shared how the teaching that we must hear God’s voice did a great deal of harm to your understanding of His nature. In this episode, we want to share those testimonies from our listeners, and why we need to have a scriptural understanding of how God does – and does not – speak to His children.

God Doesn’t Whisper! With Jim Osman

Today, we’re talking about the very important topic of extra-biblical revelation – the idea of God talking to us outside the pages of Scripture. And we’ve got a friend with us who literally wrote the book on it, Pastor Jim Osman. Jim’s excellent book on extra-biblical revelation is called God Doesn’t Whisper, and he’s going to help us understand why this teaching that God speaks to us outside of Scripture is not just extra-biblical, but unbiblical. Listen all the way to the end- we have a giveaway for you!
