Podcast 112: Why Does God Use Prophecy?

/in /by

Prophecy is weird! But it really is important, and God uses it for good reason. Join us today as we talk about why God uses prophecy, some reasons why He doesn’t, why you don’t need to be intimidated by it, and how to start understanding it yourself.

In today’s podcast, we refer to a telecast on the same topic. Now that we look for that one, I’m not sure it has aired yet! But this classic from Mr. Richard Ames covers the exact same points: “Why Bible Prophecy?” Also, here are the five booklets we recommended to begin your own studies in Bible prophecy—again, all you have to do is get this booklet and read a little each week, looking up verses in your Bible as you encounter them in the booklet. No need to be intimidated!

However, one we did not mention that is sort of a no-brainer is Mr. Ames’ booklet Understanding Bible Prophecy. Like the Revelation booklet, it is a great one to start with.

Podcast 106: Why We Don’t Engage in Politics

/in /by

Why don’t we get involved in politics? As the world around us falls apart, it can be increasingly tempting to follow the crowds into the voting booth. But it isn’t God’s way, and with thanks to a listener who asked us about this question, today we discuss why. Please join us!

P.S. Two things! (1) Teen Camp is gearing up! Just like we’ve done before in recent years, we’ll be posting pictures here on LivingYouth.org not long after it starts. Hopefully daily or close to it. So, keep checking in! (2) Mr. Gerald Weston has an excellent Living Church News article coming out on the same topic as today’s podcast, and we should have mentioned it! In fact, it’s already out online, and you can read it right now. The title is tongue-in-cheek: “‘It Is Your Patriotic Duty to Vote.'” (You have to look hard to see the quote marks in the quote marks…) Click through—it’s a quick read and crystal clear!
