Tiim Talks

On this episode Dr. Stone and Pastor Wolvin discuss those things that bring unity and inclusion to a youth group a must if you hope to see good things happen.

Is your youth group ALL it can be?  Are there some things you'd like to see change or implemented?  Maybe It's time for a teen department take over?  Al and Dan have got just what you need to make that happen.

WARNING: This episode goes off the rails.  Sit down, pull over and get something to wipe your eyes!  Who knew CHEAP could be this hilarious.

Our gang looks at things they did to save the church some money over the years.  Little things can mean a lot when things are tight financially.  Sit back relax and listen to 4 extreme cheapskates.

Well ... THEIR ... Baaaaack.  The Ladies of TiimTalks are in the house, literally.  Al and Dan are joined by their lovely wives this week.  Listen in as the reminisce about those times when spending was a luxury and not always a necessity. 

Again Dr. Stone asks the Bartleys some questions that give us an even better insight to what it means to be a missionary today.

The tough questions are coming and the Bartleys give us some transparency into the world of missionaries that most never really know.  Listen in as brother Stone asks the tough questions.

Dr. Stone introduces us to veteran missionaries Wes and Faith Ann Bartley this week.  An amazing couple with an amazing story you don’t want to miss.

God allows evil to exist but one day ONE day, satan and all that are his will stand before God in a final judgment!  What a day that will be for all who have been hindered but not taken over by him.

Bad things have been done by bad people since the beginning of time and some times those bad people are us! Al and Dan look at all that today

Have you had to answer those hard questions as to why evil is allowed to exist when God can overcome it?  Or why do bad things happen to good people?  Well our hosts have and do and will today.

The students tell us today what we can do to be a help to them live out their Christian lives in the midst of some pretty serious worldliness.

Today’s episode is very real and should maybe be listened to by parents before their children listen.  Our students just speak the very real and sometimes harsh truth about going to school in a school that cares little if at all about our Christian values.

Bro. Wolvin takes the week to interview some students that are NOT going to a christian college to see what we as church members might find out to be the truth about those colleges and what we can do to help those who attend them.

It’s officially Pastor Wolvin’s birthday but today we find out from Dan about Al.  The truth may be finally coming out.

Today is Dan’s day, but not just yet.  Today Al asks Dan about his life, the good the bad and the longest segment … the ugly.

The guys get some help on the opening and question from a fine youn man.  Caleb asks how do you maintain God’s will and a solid Christian walk? Al and Dan jump in with some solid advice.

The guys go deep to find just the right expert to help them today.  Dr. B. Bunny and of course the Bible guide is to the music for the Meh.

Perspective is the key word today.  Pastor Wolvin & Dr. Stone try to point is in the right direction when we are in the Meh of life.

Are you just ho-hum, just plugging along, almost done? You’re not alone!  Al and Dan got you though and are set to help all who are Meh!

Mental health has become a catch phrase and catch all for a lot of the problems people are dealing with today.  Dr. Stone and Pastor Wolvin examined each other and have found out THEY may be the source of your problems … listen in to find out why? LOL

Al and Dan deal at length today the idea of such things as food banks and what the church might do to help with those such things in order to be charitable. Listen in and see what their take on theses things are.

With seemingly so many people in our society that are “hurting” the question is asked who is responsible to take care of all those needs, the church or others?  Our guys give some good discussion to what they believe the answer is.

Have you noticed that many that seem to struggle with a consistent Christian life start to fall apart right around the midlife mark?  Dr. Stone and Pastor Wolvin have and they share why that may be today.

There were some in the Bible that sound like those Al and Dan are discussing this week, maybe they will give us some better understanding as to just how this might happen … to even you.

Ever known someone to leave the things of the Lord and fall so far from what the Christian life is suppose to be that you wondered if they were ever truly saved in the first place? You are not alone.  This week the guys discuss that very topic.

As the Pastor/boss don’t forget those that are pulling behind you, your staff, family and church members need time for other things too.  Make you you allow them time to keep their lives balanced too. Dr. Stone and Pastor Wolvin give us some helpful hints on how to do so.

Sometimes, well most of the time, the pressure we feel that we are not taking care of all our duties is most often self induced.  Al and Dan take a look at some of those things we can do to take some of that pressure off.  

Family, ministry, business, personal time … how do you balance all that out successfully is the question asked of our hosts today.  With circus performers we have on board the solution to a balancing act is NO problem.  

Today's podcast is an amalgam of ideas, creativity, technical issues, goals, and determination designed to assist you and give advice - if you're ever dumb enough to try to do a podcast.

Today's episode covers most of the technical aspects of modern podcasting. Microphones, recorders, software...so much of the "nuts and bolts" of sound casting has advanced in such a relatively short time.

A faithful listener echoes a question we have heard before: What does it take for me to start a podcast?

When God gives you a vision it’s imperative that you see it to the end.  There will be some tough times between start and finish but the conclusion of a vision is sweet.  Our guys guide us through that process in this episode.

So you have a vision but how do you put shoes on the feet of that vision.  Dr. Stone and Pastor Wolvin will take us on that journey today on this episode.

Are you a visionary?  Has God impressed upon you something that he wants for you to do that maybe others can ’t see.  Al and Dan look this week at those that are called by God to do something maybe extraordinary. 

When great harm is done in a church it can be devastating but can be dealt with properly and should. Al and Dan give us somethings to consider if we are ever confronted with allegations of wrong doing in our own churches.

What can, could or should we do if there are allegations made in another church in our affiliation or vicinity?  And what should we do when we know the guilty has started attending another church?  Two tough ones today but our guys can handle it.

A Pastor writes into ask what should be done when allegations are made about wrong doing within a church.  How should the pastor and people deal with those that may be true or false.  Pastor Wolvin & Dr. Stone are on it and you can be assured they are telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth … we hope! LOL

God Bless America!  A little early celebration of the 250th anniversary of independence.  Uncle DAN salutes you! and Cousin Al SIPS to you.  Now to business: Sometimes what we consider passion is really just something that stick in our craw!  They guys try to differentiate today.  Let’s find out if what you strongly hold to is passion or a pet peeve.

Happy Canada Day Eh?!  Congratulations to all of our Canadian listeners on this the 159th year of confederation!.  Now that we have Al’s passion out of the way … What should we be passionate about?  Are there good and bad things that we could or should be passionate about.  Pastor Wolvin and Dr. Stone give us some ideas about what we should be passionate about today.
