The Melissa Dougherty Podcast

Why believe in God? Why believe in the Gospel? Why believe in Truth? I interviewed Dr. Neil Shenvi about one of the most fascinating arguments for God that we as Christians should become very familiar with.  Get Neil's book here:https://shenviapologetics.com/FOLLOW:Neil's Social Media-Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064262516458Twitter: https://twitter.com/NeilShenviWebsite: https://shenviapologetics.com/My Social Media-Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/Instagram: @melissaldougherty Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/If led, support the channel!

I invited my good friend Jon Noyes on to talk about a tough topic: Suicide. I was stunned to discover how serious this is when I saw a recent statistic showing the growing suicide rates. Why is this happening? How can we biblically look at this? What can be done? There is hope. 👀WATCH👀:●Teen Suicide Epidemic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Xox-z2g-CU●Stand to Reason Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@STRvideos●Is Suicide Unforgivable?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pGjiQYHagc&t=164s●My Other video with Jon about abortion: https://youtu.be/8SJjHtf22rE📚RESOURCES📚:●Recommended Books: https://www.amazon.com/shop/melissadougherty●Websites: STR.org: https://www.str.org/🤗DONATE🤗:If you are led, consider donating:https://paypal.me/MelissaDougherty77📲FOLLOW📲:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/Instagram: @melissaldougherty Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/💡SEMINARY💡:Looking for a solid theological education?

Alisa Childers and I had the honor of interviewing Jinger Duggar Vuolo, author of "Becoming Free Indeed: My Story of Disentangling Faith from Fear." You might remember her from TLC's popular shows, "19 Kids and Counting" and "Counting On." We discuss some of the legalistic teachings of Bill Gothard and how there was an ironic prosperity twist on his Life Principles doctrine. We also ask her about her journey of disentanglement and why deconstruction was not an option for her because of her love for Jesus and truth. She has a humbling and inspiring story.  👀WATCH👀:● Jinger's interview with Allie Beth Stuckey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj6Wv-1I4v4● Alisa's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@alisachilders📚RESOURCES📚:● Jinger's Book: https://amzn.to/3LM6S2J●https://www.amazon.com/shop/melissadougherty🤗DONATE🤗:If you are led, consider donating:https://paypal.me/MelissaDougherty77📲FOLLOW📲:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/Instagram: @melissaldougherty Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/

It's Q&A time! A few weeks ago, I asked you all to email me some questions you'd like me to answer. The questions were compiled, and this is part 3. I did my best to answer them, and I hope it helps!Topics:-How can we encourage our children to continue studying God’s Word without making it feel like a chore? -A cultural question about how we should Biblically go about ordaining men? -How can we discern when a passage or verse in the Bible can be applied to us and when it shouldn't?-The pastor of the charismatic church my wife attends recently recommends listening to music in certain frequencies. Is this frequency music thing dangerous or unbiblical?-How should we, as Christians, handle conspiracy theories? ●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/

What does historical and archaeological evidence say about Jesus? Archaeologist Dr. Titus Kennedy has firsthand seen and excavated discoveries connected to Jesus's birth, ministry, crucifixion, and resurrection. I ask him about the shroud of Turin, the Talpiot Tomb (or supposed "Family Tomb" of Jesus) that talks about his supposed wife "Mary," the fascinating Nazareth Inscription that talks about the resurrection if there is any archaeological evidence for Jesus' miracles and more.https://www.melissadougherty.co/●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/

You think you might know about the soul, especially if you're a Christian. But I promise you, there's more to this doctrine than you think. I invited my friend Eric Hernandez on to talk about the soul. He gives philosophical and biblical reasons why a soul must exist. Heads up, this is a very nerdy but fascinating interview. I learned a lot and I know you will too. Eric Hernandez is a dynamic, young evangelistic and apologetically inclined preacher who has a passion for defending his faith on both theological and philosophical grounds. He is a licensed minister, certified formation therapist and currently teaches at Magdiel Bible Institute.👀WATCH👀:● Longer answer on if animals have souls: https://youtu.be/ldTsMNHNokw● Debate with an atheist about the soul: https://youtu.be/W9H6EwRl7B0📚RESOURCES📚:https://www.amazon.com/shop/melissadougherty📲FOLLOW📲:Melissa:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/Instagram: @melissaldougherty Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/Eric:YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@UCOEnWVqW7N8cBqA2s0PH7DA Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/erichernandezministriesTwitter: https://twitter.com/EHM_Apologetics●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/

I did my best to answer them and I hope it helps!01:04- If God knew that Satan and the other angels would do what they did, why did He create them?07:16- Testing Fruit- How do these several scriptures actually apply in the New Testament when it comes to discerning a false teacher by their fruits? 15:22- I wonder what your thoughts are on the end times. Are you a post rapture, Pre rapture or mid? 17:58- Do Christian parents need to prohibit the reading and/or watching of things with magic or non-Christian spirituality present? Also should play time be monitored to stop children from pretending that they have magic?23:48- Would you have any godly advice for husbands and wives?📲FOLLOW📲:●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/

The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is a popular and fast-growing new movement of Christians who emphasize signs and wonders and teach that God is giving a new revelation through new apostles and prophets. But is this biblical Christianity? This stuff used to be fringe. Now it's probably in your church in some way. Why is this dangerous, and how can you spot it? I talk with Holly Pivec and Doug Geivett, the authors of Counterfeit Kingdom, about this concerning movement. 📚RESOURCES📚:●https://www.amazon.com/shop/melissadougherty●Holly's Blog: https://www.hollypivec.com/blog●Get Counterfeit Kingdom: https://www.hollypivec.com/books📲FOLLOW📲:●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/

This is the story of Becket Cook. He was a gay man in Hollywood who had quite a successful career. He gave up everything to follow Jesus. It all started with a fateful event in a coffee shop... In this video, we discuss how this happened and how he overcame common objections to what the Bible says about homosexuality. We also discuss Christians going to gay weddings, Progressive Christianity's unbiblical (and unhelpful) stance on this topic, do's and don'ts when someone comes out, and much more. Our goal is to talk about these topics in a loving but firm way in a culture that is hostile to a Biblical perspective on sexuality. RESOURCES:https://www.amazon.com/shop/melissadoughertyDONATE:If you are led, consider donating:https://paypal.me/MelissaDougherty77FOLLOW:Becket Cook:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BecketCook/aboutInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/becketcook/Twitter: https://twitter.com/becketcookMelissa:My Social Media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/Instagram: @melissaldougherty Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/
