Musings with Townsend and Preacher Man

"Has your faith impacted your view of money, wealth, or worldly goods?"

A great topic to have just after Townsend's return from a mission trip outside the borders of the US. Everyone knowns money, everyone looks to gain money... but has your opinion of it ever changed? Let's take a look at how a new experience can shift what you value most.

Got a question you want answered or a topic you'd like to hear Townse...

"Describe a time when you held a belief about something/someone which turned out to be wrong?"

Everyone probably has a story that could answer this question - those things you were maybe so sure about that turned out to be exactly opposite of what you thought at first. Those lessons are sometimes the hardest to learn - but they are worthy lessons, none the less. 

Got a question you want answered or a topic you'd like t...

"Have you ever been mad or upset with God?"

Again, we come across one of those topics where the answer is obvious - OF COURSE WE HAVE! But what about the truth of being angry? Is it ok to be mad or upset with God? What are we supposed to do with that emotion or hurt? This episode might not answer all the questions, but it surely will help to start the conversation.

"In what area of your life do you find it most difficult to trust God?"

Believe it or not, we all have this problem. In fact, we might have more of a problem with the issue of trusting the Lord than we realize. But, there is HOPE! Let's shine the light of truth on these areas where we struggle to trust our Father in Heaven and let that light burn away our doubt that He does, indeed, have it all under control!

"Who is one person in your life who doesn't understand your faith but you desperately wish would?"

A personal question this week that maybe we should all be asking; who are those folks around us who just don't believe? Townsend and Preacher Man keep it anonymous, but honest, as they reflect on those whom they wish would come to understand the sweet truth of the Gospel.

"What do you think it means to give thanks in all circumstances? (1 Thess. 5:18)"

A topic that we've considered before - but a topic worthy of revisiting... just what does it mean to always be thankful. It takes about 5 seconds to think of something that you're not "thankful" for, but does that make you in error with what God says in the Bible? Listen in to this week's episode and see if you can&ap...

"How are you seeing God change you (sanctify you)?”

This week, let's stop and consider just how God has been working on us and making us more of what He wants in us and from us. It's a reflection we all need to regularly participate in - just so happens that Townsend and Preacher Man were sitting in front of microphones when they did it. ;)

"If you were called as a missionary anywhere in the world, where would you go?"

The world's a big place and there are lots of people around. If we were allowed to go anywhere at all to teach the Gospel, where would we wanna go? Some place warm? Some place with lots of things "to do?" Or some place that takes us out of our comfort zone? Good question! Let's muse...

"Do you feel any personal responsibility to provide for those in need? Why?"

This week has a "Sunday School" answer that makes us feel good, but often doesn't include us actually doing anything about the issue. So, if there's a responsibility to do something, what then? What do we do? Let's muse on that!

"How have you seen God answer prayer?" 

What a privilege to get to think about and answer this question with you as the first episode of our SIXTH season of MTPM! 5 years or yappin' together with y'all around this digital table that we've pulled up chairs to - and all its own answer to prayer. 

So, Happy Birthday to all of us! Pull up and let's talk about how we have and continue to hear God speak to us.

...

"Who is one person you think God put into your life for a reason? What is that reason?"

Everybody has somebody - even if you've never stopped to think about it. That someone who is your advice giver, your calm-provider, or your steady rock in a stormy life. Listen to Townsend and Preacher Man share about those "someones" that are special to them - but then think about and give thanks for those special folks ...

"What impact should Christian faith have on parenting?"

Come on now, y'all - this is an episode we need to hear AND one that we're praying spurs other conversations and behaviors long after the episode ends. Our children are in desperate need of seeing parents who are steeped in their faith and who are not only teaching with words, but with deeds! 

Got a question you want answered or a topic you'd like to hea...

"Tell me about a time when you trusted God to do what was best for you." Preacher Man wants to point out that this is an instruction and the card ends the line with a ? - and that's annoying to him. :)

But it's a story time/confession sort of episode. Sit back, turn up the volume, and learn a little about Townsend and Preacher Man - and maybe yourself, too.

"What is your favorite book in the Bible and why?" There are 66 books in there to choose from, so the likelihood that Townsend and Preacher Man would pick the same one is pretty small... but do they anyway?! Listen and find out? AND - take a minute to send us a message and tell us which is your favorite book. We'd love to hear from you!

"Where do you learn how to love and obey God?"

Townsend chose a red card... and we don't like those. But, maybe the problem is us! Take a listen and see what you might learn about how Townsend and Preacher Man understand where the "knowing" about love and obedience comes from and how important it is to APPLY what you learn. 

Got a question you want answered or a topic you'd like to hear Townsend and Prea...

"How important is it for Christians to rest on the Sabbath? Does this still apply to us today?" Do we even know what the Sabbath is, or what it's for? This week Townsend and Preacher Man will share their thoughts about the idea of Sabbath. Listen and see if you agree!

BTW - This is EPISODE 1 of Preacher Man as a GRANDDAD! So, basically you HAVE to listen to this one. ;)

Got a question you want answered or a topic you&a...

"Do Christians have responsibilities towards the society they live in? What are they?" Preacher Man digs deep in his 90s history to call "duh" in response to the first part of this week's question... but what do you think those responsibilities are? Townsend takes charge right out of the gate  - listen up and see what you think!

"Think of a difficult time in your life. Did you feel CLOSER or FURTHER away from God? Why might that be?" Buckle up Listener Land, this is one of those times where Townsend and Preacher Man have a different take on the topic. Listen and see which side you fall on. Townsend wants a poll afterward - cause she has a theory!

"Are there any Christian teachings that are dealbreakers for you in friendships?" What do you think? Yes, no? Do you ever notice that you sometimes look for reasons to NOT have a relationship with someone? Do you think that's the way it's supposed to be? This week - Townsend and Preacher Man are gonna muse their way to an answer... so listen in and see what you think!
