Tales from the carpenter’s desk, the risk of Bible study, and the Black Swan of Puritanism.
In this episode, I talk about why Jesus never used carpentry in any of his parables, why Tobias Crisp is the “Black Swan of Puritanism,” and why studying the Bible doesn’t necessarily have to have a goal in order for it to be profitable and beneficial. Sometimes God’s just wants us to go to the Word for the enjoyment of it. Resources. “The Tales the Carpenter Told,” Todd Brewer “Lost & Found: The Purpose of Jesus’ Parables,” article by yours truly “That Passage Deserves Another Look,” Robert Kolb Christ Alone Exalted, Tobias Crisp Christ Made Sin, Samuel Crisp Grace: So Much More Than You Know and So Much Better Than You Think, Brad J.

Wasting your life trusting in the efficiency of God, the SBC’s reckoning, and the Word that abides forever.
In this episode, I share a few brief thoughts on the recent reckoning in the Southern Baptist Convention before zeroing in on the truest hope for our times — namely, that God wastes nothing. Even the days which seem impossibly dark and incredibly inefficient are days in which God’s Word abides forever.

Getting back at it.
I’m back! I know it’s been a while since the last time an episode dropped in the Ministry Minded feed, but I’m aiming to get back at it. And what better way to do that than to reflect on the recent “face-lift” the blog has received, courtesy of my dear friend Sara Bordner! She’s the brains behind all the new branding and logos that you see everywhere. In this episode, I reflect a little on that, plus I talk about some other stuff relating to social media and the understanding of the self, along with the incandescent hope that’s found in humor.

A much needed rest and holding fast to faith when it doesn’t make sense.
In this episode of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I share some reflections on a much-needed vacation spent with family as well as some timely encouragement on the providence of God, whose sovereignty is never in doubt. What’s in front of us and all around might make us believe otherwise. We are very easily swayed into declaring the “end of all things.” But even when all seems dismal, the almighty wisdom of God is still true. Even when all else is uncertain, we can cling to the certain hope of the Father (Heb. 6:19). Even when it doesn’t make sense, we can still have faith. Grace and peace.

Sensationalizing the present means we’ve turned a blind eye to the past.
In this episode of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I share some updates on this “beautifully exhausting” season of life and ministry, as well as the concrete hope of the Word to which the church can cling in times of doubt and fear and frenzy (Heb. 6:19).

In this episode of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I share some encouraging excerpts from 9Marks’ newest online journal, The Ordinary Means of Grace—Or, Don’t Do Weird Stuff.

On the “deep magic” of a God who confounds sense and challenges faith.
In this episode of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I get to reflect on some prescient thoughts and themes that I’ve been considering lately through the course of my sermon series on Philippians, especially as it relates to the ways God confounds our sense and challenges our faith through his divine and sovereign “Deep Magic.” Connect with the show: https://graceupongrace.net/ Buy Fresh Roasted Coffee: http://www.freshroastedcoffee.com **Use code ‘GRACE10’ to get 10% off!** Notes: Stonington Baptist Church sermons “The deeper magic of opportune obstacles,” article by yours truly “In pretense or in truth: why Jesus plus nothing still equals everything,” article by yours truly “Don’t Panic,” Randall R.

7 reasons to not leave your church and other church membership wisdom with Pastor Mike Gray.
In this edition of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I share some updates on the podcast itself as well as talk through this past week’s sermons and why Psalm 131 constitutes, perhaps, the best picture of what it means to live the life of faith.

Jesus’s incendiary sermon and the need for pastor-theologians.
In this episode of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I consider (again) Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount and I also highlight some recent articles from around the web that articulate the growing need for pastor-theologians. It is my aim to encourage the listener that theology isn’t meant to be sequestered in the halls of scholastic thought — it’s meant to richly rejoiced in, lived, and loved by one and all, in all walks of life.

On ministry transition in the middle of a pandemic and making sense of the atonement with Obbie Tyler Todd.
In this episode of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I am thrilled to be joined once again by my dear friend, Obbie Tyler Todd. In this lengthy dialogue, we reflect on an assortment of life- and church-lessons learned through the course of the pandemic. We also dissect his newest book, The Moral Governmental Theory of the Atonement: Re-Envisioning Penal Substitution, in which he endeavors to disseminate a thoroughly “American” doctrine of Christ’s atoning work and explain both its rise and fall from popular ecclesiastical favor.

Opening a can of worms and continuing the legacy of the best Bible study ever.
It’s time for another edition of the Ministry Minded Podcast. In today’s show, I get to share some reflections on 1 Kings 11 and how the decline of Solomon’s empire actually points to the resolute truth of the God of all grace and the Governor of all history.

On Luther, Limbaugh, and the league of the guilty.
In this edition of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I chat about a slew of articles that I’ve been chomping at the bit to share with you, including one that shows how Rush Limbaugh and Martin Luther were similar in use of language to make courageous stands for the truth. Of course, Limbaugh and Luther operated in very different fields of expertise, not to mention different centuries, but the truth holds: that we, in this moment, are given an abundance of reasons to “stand firm” in and for the “true grace of God” (1 Pt 5:12), even in this fiery trial.
