WHAT’S ON WHAT’S UP TODAY:
SHOULD WE REFER TO GOD AS “MOTHER” INSTEAD OF “FATHER”?
SHOULD WE REFER TO GOD AS “THE GREAT QUEER ONE”?
IS GOD: THE “O STRANGE ONE, O FLUID ONE, OR EVER-BECOMING ONE?”
THE MAJORITY OF CHRISTIAN PASTORS DO NOT HOLD A BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW.

WHERE IS THE CHURCH HEADED IN AMERICA?
Discussed by Pastor Ed Ethridge – Retired
with Truth for You Ministries (www.truthforyou.net/)
Part 1 of 4
Pastor Ed Ethridge passionately discusses the need for revival in the Church – both in the pews and the pulpit.
Click here for more about Truth for You Ministries.
Questions/Issues Discussed:
Do we refer to God as “mother”? Pastor Ed explains that referring to “God as Mother” is absolutely unbiblical.
Should translations/paraphrases of the Bible which include “he/she” mentions of God be shunned? Pastor Ed believes we should not even look at those paraphrases. He says: “We can try to make Him anything we want to. But God is God!”
Scripture Reference: Psalm 91:4
PART 2 OF 4 - WHERE IS THE CHURCH HEADED IN AMERICA?
Discussed by Pastor Ed Ethridge – Retired
with Truth for You Ministries (www.truthforyou.net/)
Questions/Issues Discussed:
Do we address God as: “The Great Queer One, O Strange One, O Fluid One, or
Ever-Becoming One?” This question refers to a recent “pride worship
service” where students from a United Methodist-affiliated Duke Divinity
School proclaimed God’s acceptance and support for LGBTQ relationships. Click
here for many results from DuckDuckGo on the issue.
Pastor Ed says: “We live in a culture that is making light of God and the
Scripture. They are trying to change God to fit their format… We can’t do that!
The Word of God is the Word of God!”
PART 3 OF 4 -WHERE IS THE CHURCH HEADED IN AMERICA?
Discussed by Pastor Ed Ethridge – Retired
with Truth for You Ministries (www.truthforyou.net/)
Questions/Issues Discussed:
BREAKING NEWS: A recent
study released by Dr. George Barna with the Cultural Research Center
at Arizona Christian University reveals that a majority of Christian
pastors in the United States do not hold a biblical worldview. How
is this possible? Pastor Ed says that he is not shocked by these numbers, but it
still breaks his heart…
How should we trust and treat false teachers? Pastor Ed says that we should be
more concerned with offending God than false teachers.
Scripture Reference: The Book of Jude
PART 4 OF 4 - WHERE IS THE CHURCH HEADED IN AMERICA?
Discussed by Pastor Ed Ethridge – Retired
with Truth for You Ministries (www.truthforyou.net/)
Questions/Issues Discussed:
Is a spiritual awakening needed just as desperately in our pulpits as it is in
our pews? Pastor Ed says: “We’re asleep in the pew because
we’re asleep in the pulpit… Get back to truth. Get back to reaching people for
Christ and discipling them.” He also shares that he is absolutely saddened
and disheartened by the state of the Church today.

GIVE, PRAY, AND FAST IN SECRET
Discussed by Mark Lanier
with Biblical Literacy (www.Biblical-Literacy.com)
Day 3
Mark Lanier
continues the Snapshots of Jesus series with a look at how Jesus instructed us
to give, pray, and fast. Mark sums it up this way: “This is manners. This
is how we should behave.”
Scripture Passage: Matthew 6:1-18

Questions/Issues Discussed:
Yesterday, Mark taught about Jesus’ command on giving. Today, he discusses the “how” and “why” about giving and then moves on to the manner in which we should pray.
APPLICATION FOR GIVING: Matthew 6:2-4
Why did Jesus command Christians to give to the needy?
More importantly, why did Jesus command Christians to give in secret?
How are we to do this?
APPLICATION FOR PRAYING: Matthew 6:5-15
Why did Jesus warn the people to not be like the “hypocrites”?
How often did Jews pray every day? What did they pray? Why did they usually pray standing up?
What is the significance of Jesus saying: “the Father who sees in secret will reward you”? Mark references Romans 2:28-29.
