• #10 Mood Swings!
    Oct 22 2021
    All of us have moods. Good and Bad moods. Sometimes the personality of your church or pastor can affect those moods. A pastor with a Disney land view of the world or a pastor that sees demons everywhere will have an impact on your mood. Pastors should be balanced to create a healthy mood in lives. We will discuss this very issue on the ESP Podcast.

  • Episode #8 Love the Sinner, Hate the Sin--Really?
    Oct 9 2021

    A common cliche among Christians is Love the Sinner, Hate the Sin, or Love the Person, hate the sin. Yes, I have used that phrase in the past. Is this a Biblical statement? Is it possible? Is it probable? Is it right? Love the sinner/person; hate the sin. The sinner here would be defined as a person who has not come to faith in Christ.

    Let's think about this for a moment. Do we have the ability to separate sin from the person? How can we hate a person's character and love the person? Can we genuinely love the person with an asterisk? What sins are we to hate in the other person? Sins we don't commit or all sins? Sins shouted from the rooftop or sins secretly held in the heart? Love the Person--Hate the Sin--Really?

  • #007 - 10 Lies We Tell Ourselves About Marriage - Part 2 - Dr. James D. Allen
    Oct 2 2021

    Today I want to share with you 10 lies we tell ourselves about marriage. We will explore five of the lies today and the other five next week.

    10 lies we tell ourselves about marriage, and 10 brief responses from me, certainly not complete.

    This is a three-hour seminar, shortened to a couple of podcasts. But these may be great things for you to discuss with your spouse. Or if you're engaged, perhaps to address these 10 lies before you get married.

  • #005 - Silence - Dr. James D. Allen
    Sep 18 2021
    How do I get to that place of silence. Others have said that you can't keep a bird from flying over your head. But you can keep it from building a nest. That sounds great. But as an all simplistic answers, it does not hold up to scrutiny. I wish it was only a bird flying over my head. But what I find is that when I bow to prey, an entire flock of Canadian geese rain down upon me.

    Am I the only one that deals with a flock of birds at prayer? As soon as I move towards silence. Here comes politics, temptation, worry, gossip, my schedule for the day. It all just comes running in upon me. I can choose some of the birds away. But I need some buckshot to blast them away.

    Listen in as Dr. Allen provides some practical answers to finding some silent time with God.
