Coffee With Conrad

Become a more fruitful disciple-maker by shifting away from busyness to investing in people.

Main Points

• The "spinning plates" mentality gives an illusion of control and busyness but doesn't produce lasting fruit
• We should shift to a "sowing seeds" mentality focused on fruitfulness for God's kingdom
• Focus on activities that bring you closer to God and serve others
• Prioritize tasks based on spiritual impact and kingdom goals, not just urgency
• Be patient - growth takes time like a farmer waiting for harvest
• Sowing the word involves investing in people, not just spreading information
• Build relationships and create space for spiritual growth
• Make disciples who can then disciple others - multiplication

Action Steps

• Evaluate how your activities contribute to God's kingdom
• Distinguish urgent tasks from important long-term goals
• Find receptive hearts to sow gospel seeds into
• Nurture new believers like Paul did with Timothy
• Create a safe space for spiritual conversations

In this episode, we’ll explore how pondering the parables of Jesus can unlock spiritual revelation in our lives. Get ready to go deeper with the wisdom of Christ as we reflect on the transformative power of parables.

Why Jesus used parables; they grab attention, create emotional connection, accessible to all, provoke deeper reflection;
Parables are easy to remember and ponder; can recall essence without full scriptural context;
Pondering parables while away from Bible allows fresh perspective; experience personal revelation;
Parables invite self-reflection; see ourselves in the stories;
Layers of meaning reveal insights into current circumstances; Spirit guides us;
Must keep parables rooted in biblical truth; complement scripture;
Approach with open heart, but ensure aligned with written word;
Parables shine a light, mirror us; challenge beliefs and values;
Spirit rushes in with sudden clarity, congruent understanding; we feel peace, inner knowing, confirmation;
When words abide in us, we recognize Jesus' voice through Spirit's guidance; transformed by renewing our minds;
Need scriptural foundation for Spirit to guide; familiarity with Word provides "ammunition";

Does the Bible really guarantee divine health and freedom from all sickness for Christians? Listen as we examine the Scriptures on God's healing promises.

• - Matthew 18:32-34 - unforgiveness can lead to sickness;
• - 1 Corinthians 11:27-30 - taking communion unworthily can make you sick;

• - These verses don't guarantee freedom from affliction;
• - Examples of godly people in the Bible who weren't healed (Paul's thorn, Epaphroditus' illness);
• - Sharing personal experiences with sin-sickness connection;
• - Going through listener comments and feedback on Facebook;
• - The story of John G. Lake's miraculous healing during the plague;

In this thought-provoking episode of Coffee with Conrad, Conrad delves into the age-old debate of free will versus predestination, as well as the contrasting views of Calvinism and Arminianism. Join Conrad as he explores the main points and differences of these theological systems, offering his own spiritual perspective along the way. Buckle up for a deep dive into this fascinating topic and get ready to have your mind opened to new possibilities.

Calvinism:
1. Total depravity - humans born in sin.
2. Unconditional election - God chooses who is saved.
3. Limited atonement - Jesus died for the elect.
4. Irresistible grace - the elect cannot resist God's grace.
5. Perseverance of the saints - the elect will never be lost.

Arminianism:
1. Partial depravity - humans have capacity for good.
2. Conditional election - God chooses based on mercy.
3. Unlimited atonement - Jesus died for all.
4. Resistible grace - humans can reject God's grace.
5. Conditional salvation - believers can fall away.

Differences:
1. Role of human free will.
2. Nature of God's sovereignty.
3. Nature of sin.
4. Nature of atonement.
5. Nature of grace.
6. Perseverance of the saints.

Listener comments:
1. True student can defend both sides.
2. Debate is rooted in intellectualism.
3. Both sides can be true.
4. Relationship with Jesus is personal.
5. Moral superiority drives people away.

My thoughts:
1. God sending robots to hell?
2. Absolves responsibility for Great Commission.
3. How can we love without free will?
4. Both sides discount opposition's scriptures.
5. Finite mind cannot comprehend infinite God.
6. Does the Bible promote denominations?
7. Keep our focus on Jesus.
