This week, in our last episode before summer hiatus, we're coming to you "off the cuff". We're wrapping up our sixth year of podcasting discussing our favorite episodes from the '24-'25 season, what we've been up to this year, and what we're looking forward to this summer. Lord willing, we'll be back in the fall for our seventh season of A Word Fitly Spoken. Until then, have a great summer, listeners!

As Christian women, we want to be godly wives and have marriages that are centered around Christ and His Word, and today we’re going to look at ten steps we can take -before and during marriage- to help make that happen.

And we want to encourage all of our listeners, whether you’re married or not, whether you desire marriage or not, to listen. You might be surprised at how much of what we’re talking about today applies to you!

Have you ever heard the term New Apostolic Reformation or NAR? Over the last 20 years or so, it has become the predominant form of false doctrine in Protestant American evangelicalism, and you’ve probably encountered it in some way, even if you don’t know what it’s called. Today, we're taking a look at the NAR's false teachings and unbiblical practices so you can help protect yourself, your loved ones, and your church from this doc...

In this episode we shine a light on a movement in the Church that is taking people’s eyes off of Christ - a dangerous theology: Progressive Christianity. This apostate ideology is the hardest in which to reach people with the Truth of the gospel. Progressive Christianity are two opposite words that really don’t belong together - because Progressive Christianity is really no Christianity at all.

Do you ever find it challenging to stand on the truth of Scripture, especially as it relates to sexual purity? From cohabitation to adultery to transexual ideology, this world makes it tough to hold to and even to talk about biblical sexual mores. Sometimes, we can even be tempted to compromise on what the Bible teaches about sexuality. Let's take a look at what Scripture has to say about standing - unashamed - for the whole gospel...

Today, we’re embarking on a three part series on “doing church,” so to speak. It’s not so much about theology, it’s more about church culture. For those who weren’t raised in church and became Christians as adults, walking into church for the first time can be unfamiliar and daunting. But even if you were raised in church, or you're moving your membership to a new church, there are still things about “doing church” that we can lear...

Today we’re going to be looking at a recently released study that sheds some light on the wild and wacky ways people worship and the worldview they hold - especially professing Christians. How would you have answered the questions in this survey, and how should we, as doctrinally sound Christians, respond in light of the results of this survey?

Today we are taking on a tough topic that has been in the news for the past year and recently came to a very sad conclusion - sexual abuse at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City (IHOP-KC) - and the devastating results are worse than anyone could have thought.

Why do we often look up to Christian celebrities instead of anonymous servants? And why, when we think about finding a place of service in the local church, do we usually gravitate toward positions that will put us in the spotlight and give us recognition, rather than gravitating toward anonymous, thankless jobs? Today we're looking at the meaning of servanthood, our manner of servanthood, and our mindset and motives regarding serv...

Amy Spreeman recently sat down with our good friend Dave Jenkins on his podcast called Contending for the Word to talk about the marks of theological liberalism, or as it's more commonly known, "Progressive Christianity." What do Christians need to know about this movement seeping into many churches, and how can we contend for the faith?

Cessationism has to do with whether all of the spiritual gifts given by God to Believers that we read about in the New Testament are for Christians today. It is a controversial topic for a lot of people. Many of you may be familiar with the 2023 documentary film, Cessationist, and today we’re excited to welcome our brother who wrote and narrated Cessationist, David Lovi.

Recently, there have been two notable instances of theologically conservative, Reformed Christians welcoming in false teachers, introducing them to their audiences, and, by doing so, essentially giving them their seal of approval. And they’re not the only ones. This kind of thing happens all the time with high profile Christians, parachurch ministries, and churches. We'll explore the Scriptures that explain why this is a sin and ha...
