The Honor Is For You Who Believe by Mark Popovitch

Last semester at Westminster Philly Online I had the pleasure of having Dr Nate Shannon for AP-101. He is a brilliant man (not just saying that for a grade since he already graded me). You will be blessed by his knowledge about Christian Apologetics and his encouragement to Christians to love God and love our neighbor.

Well Worth The Look (Sermon John 1:29)

As my wife and i sit in church we sometimes wonder “What Are We Even Doing Here?” Not because we don’t believe, but because we do.  It is crazy that years ago we didn’t believe in Jesus.  We were a young and struggling married couple with a young daughter.  But thanks to God’s soveriegnty and His use of a believer, I came to believe in Jesus.  About two years later God changed Karen’s heart and she was brought to belief.  Now we look back in amazement and see where we are today, knowing we don’t deserve to be here, and ask, “What Are We Even Doing Here?” I’m sure you all have asked this question for one reason or another.  This question is asked both in our personal lives and life in general.  “Why are we here? What is our purpose?  What is this world?”During this podcast we hope to explore these questions and more.  We will share our story as husband, wife, and parents as God continues to work in our lives.  We will seek to answer what we are even doing here from a biblical perspective.  Come along on our adventure and find out “What Are We Even Doing Here?”

Daryl and Karen brings Christianity to the family at a practical level. Discussing the ways of our Lord between themselves and with others so that we can see how God intended. As He instructed the Israelites in Deuteronomy 6:7 to talk about His commands at all times even in the home.

Great Chemistry

Great podcast real dialogue between husband and wife about real life topics

On this episode we got to have Andrew Rappaport over to discuss what the Bible says about women in ministry roles.  Some of his comments caused a stir on social media a bit ago and we wanted to see what he had to say.  More importantly we wanted to see what the Word of God has to say.  I know not all agree on this but as Christians we need to believe what God says.  We also discuss some of what happens to some pastors when they achieve celebrity status.  Enjoy and if you want to give feedback please do so in a Christian way.Check out Andrew’s Podcast links below. https://whatareweevendoinghere.comChristian Podcast Community https://strivingforeternity.org/cpc/cpc-podcasts/The Rapp Report https://strivingforeternity.org/cpc/cpc-podcasts/the-rapp-report-andrew-rappaport/The Rapp Report Daily https://strivingforeternity.org/cpc/cpc-podcasts/rapp-report-daily/Apologetics Live  https://apologeticslive.comSo, You Want To Be A Podcaster https://strivingforeternity.org/cpc/cpc-podcasts/podcaster/Please help us keep doing the podcast…. https://www.patreon.com/whatareweevendoinghere

What are we even doing here talking about the “P”?

We decided that each month we will have an episode where we start to discuss a catechism.  A catechism is a tool used to teach the what we believe as Christians.  This is done in a question and answer form.  There is a link below to the catechism we have decided to start with.  You can find the history behind it as well as the biblical texts the questions and answers are drawn from.  We hope to get through this entire catechism then move on to another one.  It is important for Christians to know what we believe.  It is also important to teach our children as well.  We hope these episode benefit you in your walk with Christ.https://www.crcna.org/welcome/beliefs/confessions/heidelberg-catechism https://strivingforeternity.org/cpc/cpc-podcasts/ http://whatareweevendoinghere.com https://www.patreon.com/whatareweevendoinghere

What Are We Even Doing Here Catechizing?

This episode is a replay from something we recorded early on in the history of this podcast.  We take a trip each year to visit our friends in Maryland.  We decided to sit down and record a casual conversation about what God has done in our lives.  At the time Kyle and Hannah had recently had a baby that you will hear in the background.  Jhoi was single and Karen and I didn’t have our foster children yet.  We will be heading to Maryland again so stay tuned for the followup episode.  Much has changed in a year but God has been faithful through it all.  He always is! Please support us on Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/whatareweevendoinghereChristian Podcast Community https://strivingforeternity.org/cpc/cpc-podcasts/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WhatAreWeEvenDoingHere/

Flashback: Conversation With Friends In Maryland

What Are We Even Doing Here discerning about ministry roles?

Troy Frasier

On this episode I was honored to interview a cohost of one of my favorite podcasts Revived Thoughts.  Troy is very encouraging in his passion for truth and to serve the Lord.  He and his partner Joel take old sermons that have never been recorded and have them narrated.  They also give a history of the pastor who preached them originally as well as a history of what was going on at that time.  When you listen it is not just like someone is reading a stiff paper.  The narrators read as if they are preaching.  In fact many of them are preachers.  The sermons themselves are still relevant today.  If you didn't know they were from pastors as far back as hundreds of years ago you'd think they were preached last Lord's day.We hope this interview blesses and encourages you.  It was an honor to interview Troy and hope to get him on again.  Make sure you check out Revived Thoughts in the Christian Podcast Community or wherever podcasts can be found.  Revived Thoughts https://revivedthoughts.comChristian Podcast Community https://podcasts.strivingforeternity.orgHelp Us Keep Podcasting https://www.patreon.com/whatareweevendoinghereFacebook https://www.facebook.com/WhatAreWeEvenDoingHere/

Talking With Troy Frasier of Revived Thoughts

James Watkins

Karen was away this week and we thought we wouldn't have an episode for you.  But my friend James Watkins of the 5 Solas Podcast and 5 Solas Ministries asked me to be a guest on his show.  He was nice enough to allow us to put this on our show as well.  I hope you are encouraged and educated by our discussion about things that are commonly said by Christians that the Bible actually doesn't say or teach.https://whatareweevendoinghere.com/ https://5solasministries.com

Special Family Quarantine Episode

In this episode we look to the Bible to help us answer the question, “What happens to people who never hear the gospel?” We also try to tackle what happens to babies if they die before they can make a confession of saving faith.  God has the answers and we can only tell you what we see in the Scriptures.  If you have any insight on these issues please let us know.  Let us preach the gospel to everyone we can and may “whosoever will” come to Jesus Christ.  Please partner with us on Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/whatareweevendoinghere https://whatareweevendoinghere.com https://strivingforeternity.org/cpc/cpc-podcasts/
