For centuries, members of the B’doul Bedouin tribe lived in the caves around the ancient city of Petra, Jordan. Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists. But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved? Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices…

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn this episode, we tackle the question: Is believing in Jesus enough, or does a changed life matter? While salvation comes by faith alone, Scripture makes it clear that genuine faith leads to transformation, as the Holy Spirit works within us to seek righteousness and obedience to God’s will. We explore Paul’s teaching that our works will be tested like gold in fire, revealing their true value, and discuss how some may miss out on eternal rewards by failing to live a life changed by the Lord. Though Jesus stands by His Word, this episode challenges us to consider whether we’re fully preparing for the future He has for us or merely making it with our lives intact. Tune in for biblical wisdom and practical insights on aligning belief with action to glorify God. www.setapart2020.com…

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn this episode of Set Apart Living , I dive into the critical importance the Lord has placed on His people not imitating or partnering with darkness. So many of us take too lightly what’s happening around us, unaware that this is exactly what Satan desires. He wants us to be comfortable with the grey areas, but the Lord is clear: if we are not fully with Him, we are against Him. God commands us to avoid anything that even appears evil, and we must obey our Master. When we willingly participate in things that belong to darkness, we open the door to the enemy—especially in the lives of our children. I share real-life examples from deliverance sessions with young children to highlight the danger, and why we as Christian parents must do better in protecting them and teaching them that we belong to a different kingdom—not the kingdom of darkness.

In today’s episode, we’re addressing a heartfelt question about navigating the tension between prophecy, spiritual gifts, and different church environments. The listener comes from a Romanian Pentecostal background where gifts like prophecy and speaking in tongues were often emphasized, sometimes to the point of misuse, which can be discouraging. Now, they are attending a nondenominational church that follows cessationism—the belief that these gifts are no longer active in our time—creating a sense of moving from one extreme to another. Above all, it’s crucial to honor the Word of God without partiality, avoiding the misuse of spiritual gifts for personal gain, as this can lead to blasphemy. While Scripture affirms the importance of spiritual gifts (1 Corinthians 12-14), it also emphasizes that love must be the guiding force. Most importantly, honoring the Lord’s Word is more valuable than anything else, for those who truly love Him will keep His commands, even when it challenges our comfort or traditions.
