Hebrews 13 says that we’re to remember those who are in prison, as if we were in prison with them, as well as people who are mistreated, since we’re one in the Body of Christ. As Charles continues his discussion with Sergio, you’ll hear ways in which his community came together for the needs of others, prayerfully, sacrificially, and through fasting.

Many of us can become so focused on a task or project that we end up with a narrow peripheral view, which can lead to missing the bigger picture. When it comes to ministry and serving in the Kingdom, this can be especially true if we’re not careful to keep our minds focused on the eternal. In this conversation, Sergio shares his experiences with others and the fruits he’s witnessed as a result of having a Kingdom mentality.

It can be far too easy to think that once a humanitarian institution is established, there’s no longer a need in that specific demographic. When it comes to supporting these institutions, we often act as though our vote is all the contribution needed. In our conversation, Curtis reflects on the impact we can have on our neighborhoods by loving our neighbors through our institutions.

Many of us can get so caught up in the “what” of something that we tend to neglect the “why.” On the other hand, we can get so focused on the “why” that we end up completely leaving the “what” behind. In our discussion, our guest will share how his ministry is focused on intersecting the secular world with the Christian mission while emphasizing the “what” and “why” of the Gospel.

Psalm 133 opens with “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!” While many of us thoroughly enjoy the time we spend with our brothers in Christ, we often take for granted just how important fellowship is. In this episode, our guest will share his own testimony of the fruits he’s seen from regular fellowship with others.

Many of us would be quick to agree that the world is ripe with diversity when it comes to civilizations and cultures. Unfortunately, these differences have resulted in countless denominations within the Church. In our discussion, our guest will talk about the importance of unity and remembering that the body of Christ is one.

Given the age of The Church, it can be easy for us to get locked into specific patterns and assumptions of how things should function. When it comes to ministry on an individual level, it can be even more difficult to think outside of said patterns. As the conversation with our guest continues, we’ll get some powerful insights that can help us have a bigger impact for The Kingdom.

The ebb and flow of the development of mankind is quite a dynamic process. Some steps back, some steps forward. Needless to say, this can be quite the hurdle for the Church. Our guest will suggest that one of the best ways to overcome these hurdles is to adopt modern tools and use them for the furtherance of God’s Kingdom.
