Send us a text In this episode of the Be Disciples podcast, Kyle Morris and Dakota Smith discuss worldviews and the unique opportunity they have to teach at Ottawa University. They delve into the importance of understanding world religions and how to engage in meaningful conversations about faith. The discussion covers the seven critical questions that shape worldviews, the challenges posed by postmodernism, and the nature of God as prime reality. The hosts emphasize the need for consistency in belief systems and the importance of critical thinking in a postmodern society. In this conversation, they dig into the relationship between faith and science, emphasizing the importance of recognizing a creator in the universe. The discussion covers the significance of critical thinking and the purpose of life, particularly in the context of engaging with students and their worldviews. The conversation highlights the dangers of subjective reality and the necessity of a healthy belief system, ultimately pointing to the uniqueness of the Gospel and the authority of Jesus in shaping relationships and understanding life. Takeaways: Teaching world religions helps in understanding diverse beliefs. Consistency is key in a solid belief system. Everyone has biases that should be tested. Engaging in respectful dialogue is crucial in discussions. Postmodernism lacks a coherent definition. God's holiness means He is dedicated to His character. The nature of God is essential to understanding reality. Science should be seen as a discovery of God's creation. Belief systems must be coherent and consistent. Exploring the universe should deepen our awe of God. Science relies on logic, which presupposes a creator. Engaging with different worldviews can be enlightening. Emotions should not define our understanding of humanity. Redefining reality based on feelings is dangerous. The authority of Jesus is paramount in relationships. #spirituality , #worldreligions , #postmodernism , #worldview , #faith , #science , #critical thinking, #purpose of life, #emotions , #logic , #beliefsystems , #gospel…

Send us a text In this episode of the Be Disciples podcast, Dakota Smith and Kyle Morris discuss Dakota's recent mission trip to Mexico with the i68 organization. They explore the importance of organizations in supporting local churches, the criteria for partnering with missions, and the benefits of short-term missions for both participants and the communities they serve. The conversation emphasizes the need for a strong biblical foundation in mission work and the significance of making disciples as the ultimate goal of any mission trip. Takeaways: The i68 organization has evolved from service-oriented missions to a focus on teaching and discipleship. Short-term missions can change lives, but the primary goal should be to make disciples. Preparation for a mission trip should include involving the local church and writing support letters. Mission trips require sacrifice, both in time and resources. Building relationships and sharing the gospel are key components of effective missions. The Great Commission is the driving force behind mission work. Mission trips can help participants re-evaluate their commitment to the Great Commission at home. A healthy partnership between local churches and parent church organizations is essential for effective ministry. Mission trips should leave a lasting impact on both the participants and the communities served. #mission , #discipleship , #gospel #church #jesuschrist #discipleship #podcast #godsword #god #bible…
