The TBC Provoke Podcast

The Staff at Trinity hopes you had a wonderful Easter Season and that you are approaching Spring with hope and joy.  Every Spring is an excellent time to reflect on the past year and how Jesus has brought to life new things and brought to completion the old. We at TBC are doing the same kind of reflection and sharpening our ministry offerings as we evaluate what are the best tools for ministry in the days to come.  If the TBC Provoke podcast has blessed you, let us know by Subscribing and leaving a 5 Star Review, share your favorite episode with those you love and be blessed!

Is there a difference between being persecuted for espousing Kingdom values and exhibiting Kindom values. Pastor Dan and Clayton take Sunday's culmination of the Beatitudes into the midweek and also take comfort in the fact that Jesus says "Blessed are YOU when..." 

As we have been working through Matt 5 we keep hearing about the individual characteristics of Kingdom People. Today Pastor Dan and Clayton discuss how showing up without all your armor can lead to having a lopsided character and how that affects your life as an ambassador of grace.

Matt 5:8 says that the pure of heart will see God. Part of that purity is being able to ask honest questions, forgive others, and seeking forgiveness for yourself. Walking in that freedom of Jesus's kingdom transforms how you see relationships, and your own intentions. 

Picking up with last Sundays Beatitude Pastor Dan and Clayton discuss what impact we might have in our community’s if we were know for models of mercy instead of models of morality!

Possibly the most important question of all in this Q&A series. Clayton and Pastor Dan tackle the topic of truth. Do we define reality or do we merely live in it? What do Christians have in common with Plato? And why would anyone ever eat a McRib Sandwich?

Is it possible to know your individual purpose? Is there any way to discern why you actually exist? We shared in week one that we have a creator, a designer who cares for us. In week two that we have a destination of hope, and this week that we also have a reason, a purpose for being here. Join Dan and Clayton as they ask maybe the biggest question of all!

Before we tackle the question of purpose we have to pause on the concept of Eternity (question 3/4). We do this because being able to answer what is the end of our actions allows us to answer the purpose of our actions (Why are we here?) Dan and Clayton tackle this topic with an eye on understanding our worldview, sharing our worldview with others, and representing the Kingdom of God as an Ambassador in a foreign land.

Still asking and answering questions this week we cover the question of our origin and how Christianity answers this question in comparison to other worldviews. 

Every worldview asks and answers the same four questions. Over the next four weeks we are going to tackle these questions one at a time and this is a perfect time to introduce friends and family to the Provoke Podcast!
