RBP 221: Renee Nicole Good: A Soul for Which Christ Died
Episode 221On a cold January day in Minneapolis, a young mother senselessly and tragically lost her life protesting Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. How her life was lost is intensely disputed; she was either a radicalized leftist that tried to kill an ICE officer with her car or she was an innocent wallflower just trying to get out of a dangerous situation. The truth, of course, is somewhere in the middle, but the tragic incident has ignited riots in the city that has led to even more loss of life. Who was Renee Good and what were the circumstances surrounding her death? On this episode of the Removing Barriers Podcast we will discuss these issues and more, seeking to understand how this incident came about and who benefits from the continual unrest.Listen to the Removing Barriers Podcast here:Spotify: https://cutt.ly/Ega8YeI Apple Podcast: https://cutt.ly/Vga2SVdEdifi: https://cutt.ly/Meec7nsvYouTube: https://cutt.ly/mga8A77Podnews: https://podnews.net/podcast/i4jxoSee all our platforms: https://removingbarriers.netContact us:Email us: https://removingbarriers.net/contactFinancially support the show: https://removingbarriers.net/donateAffiliates:Book Shop: https://bookshop.org/shop/removingbarriersChristian Books . com: https://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/home?event=AFF&p=1236574See all our affiliates: https://removingbarriers.net/affiliatesNotes: News Article: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SafgHV2wLM
RBP 220: Our Amazing Position in Christ
Episode 220The new year is a perfect time to reflect on the past, present, and future. On today's episode of the Removing Barriers podcast, we are reflecting on the past, the present, and the future that we have in Christ. Who are we and what will we become because of Christ in us? What is our position in Him? The Bible gives us an innumerable number of declarations and promises that answer these questions, and we can trust the God who cannot lie, who always keeps his word. We will only scratch the surface of our position in Christ in this podcast, so we would love to hear from the audience some of the truths we missed. And if you are someone without Christ, may this recording open your eyes to the manifold blessings of the grace of God, that you may receive the free gift of salvation that the Lord is offering you even now.Listen to the Removing Barriers Podcast here:Spotify: https://cutt.ly/Ega8YeI Apple Podcast: https://cutt.ly/Vga2SVdEdifi: https://cutt.ly/Meec7nsvYouTube: https://cutt.ly/mga8A77Podnews: https://podnews.net/podcast/i4jxoSee all our platforms: https://removingbarriers.netContact us:Email us: https://removingbarriers.net/contactFinancially support the show: https://removingbarriers.net/donateAffiliates:Book Shop: https://bookshop.org/shop/removingbarriersChristian Books . com: https://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/home?event=AFF&p=1236574See all our affiliates: https://removingbarriers.net/affiliates
RBP 219: On the Mission Field with Missionary Joanna Smith
Episode 219Series: On the Mission Field - 25In today's episode of the Removing Barriers podcast, we interview Joanna Smith, missionary helper to the great country of Colombia. She will be helping her brother, a veteran missionary already established there, in reaching the lost souls for Christ. Perhaps you wonder why missionaries are needed in a country in which over 90% of the people identify as Christian. Isn't a country like that evangelized enough? Well, the country is overwhelmingly Catholic, and churches that preach the true gospel of Jesus Christ as it is in the scriptures are incredibly few and far between. In fact, you won't believe how far the nearest ministry of like faith is from her brother's ministry! God is at work, however, and in this interview, we will hear how God called Joanna to serve the people Colombia, especially the women and children. Join us as we learn about her upbringing, her surrender to ministry work, and all about what God is doing on that particular mission field to draw lost souls to Himself.Listen to the Removing Barriers Podcast here:Spotify: https://cutt.ly/Ega8YeIApple Podcast: https://cutt.ly/Vga2SVdEdifi: https://cutt.ly/Meec7nsvYouTube: https://cutt.ly/mga8A77Podnews: https://podnews.net/podcast/i4jxoSee all our platforms: https://removingbarriers.netContact us:Email us: https://removingbarriers.net/contactFinancially support the show: https://removingbarriers.net/donateAffiliates:Book Shop: https://bookshop.org/shop/removingbarriersChristian Books.com: https://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/home?event=AFF&p=1236574See all our affiliates: https://removingbarriers.net/affiliates
RBP 218: Growing Up a Missionary Kid with Bethany Klassen
Episode 218Have you ever recommended a Christian fiction book, only to preface the recommendation with tons of warnings, disclaimers, or caveats? Why are there so few books in that genre that can be recommended without reservation? Today on the Removing Barriers podcast, we interview a guest who at one point wondered the same thing and decided to do something about it. Bethany Klassen was born in Canada but grew up in Mexico after her parents obeyed God's call on their lives to serve the Mennonite population there as missionaries. An avid reader from her youth, Bethany always struggled to find books that exalted Christ and did not pollute the reader with questionable content or doctrine. She is now a talented author that has stepped into the Christian fiction space to create books with biblical (not just moral) values, encouraging stories, and the shameless exaltation of Christ. Her works include Sins of the Past, Tomorrow's Promise, and the newly published Seven Seconds. Listen in as we interview her about her upbringing as a missionary kid, her motivations and goals in writing Christian fiction, and the future endeavors God has in store for her. We will also be giving away one of her novels, so stay tuned for details on how to score a copy of your own.Listen to the Removing Barriers Podcast here:Spotify: https://cutt.ly/Ega8YeI Apple Podcast: https://cutt.ly/Vga2SVdEdifi: https://cutt.ly/Meec7nsvYouTube: https://cutt.ly/mga8A77Podnews: https://podnews.net/podcast/i4jxoSee all our platforms: https://removingbarriers.netContact us:Email us: https://removingbarriers.net/contactFinancially support the show: https://removingbarriers.net/donateAffiliates:Book Shop: https://bookshop.org/shop/removingbarriersChristian Books . com: https://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/home?event=AFF&p=1236574See all our affiliates: https://removingbarriers.net/affiliatesNotes:Bethany's Books: https://www.bethanyklassenbooks.com/
RBP 217: On the Mission Field with Missionary Zach and Sarah Smith
Episode 217Series: On the Mission Field - 24We have another great opportunity to sit down and talk with missionaries! In this episode, we are talking with Zach and Sarah Smith, missionaries to American Samoa. If you are anything like Jay, the only thing you might know about American Samoa are the famous people that originate or descend from there, like Tulsi Gabbard or Dwayne Johnson. There is so much more to the territory than its celebrities, of course, like the more than 50,000 souls that currently live there. Many of them would say they are Christian, but they do not have a personal relationship with Christ. These are the ones with whom Zach and Sarah would like to share the gospel. You will get to hear about God's call on both their individual lives and their life as a married couple, the work that has yet to be done in American Samoa, and what God is doing there right now. Could God be moving you to partner with them in the work?Listen to the Removing Barriers Podcast here:Spotify: https://cutt.ly/Ega8YeI Apple Podcast: https://cutt.ly/Vga2SVdEdifi: https://cutt.ly/Meec7nsvYouTube: https://cutt.ly/mga8A77Podnews: https://podnews.net/podcast/i4jxoSee all our platforms: https://removingbarriers.netContact us:Email us: https://removingbarriers.net/contactFinancially support the show: https://removingbarriers.net/donateAffiliates:Book Shop: https://bookshop.org/shop/removingbarriersChristian Books.com: https://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/home?event=AFF&p=1236574See all our affiliates: https://removingbarriers.net/affiliatesNotes:Website: https://smithstosamoa.com/
