The Melissa Dougherty Podcast

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 1. 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/

Monique Duson, who spent two decades advocating for Critical Race Theory and is the founder of the Center for Biblical Unity, joins me to discuss BLM, microaggressions, marxism, equity, inclusion, and MUCH more. Monique breaks down the movements we're seeing in social justice, and she explains how it differs from the Gospel. We both see that racism is a serious issue. But CRT is *not* the answer. You can't become a gaslighting racist to get rid of racism. This isn't about politics. It's about what Biblical justice and unity look like in the eyes of God. Hope you have your popcorn. We don't hold back. WATCH:About Microagressions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtVX6dKoyoAMonique's Interview with Alisa Childers: https://youtu.be/FwyJk1G_Dm0Monique with Allie Beth Stuckey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMgjppPZqvA&t=1845sRESOURCES:Small Group Curriculum: https://www.centerforbiblicalunity.com/reconciledMonique's Podcasts (as mentioned in the video:) https://www.centerforbiblicalunity.com/podcastsFOLLOW:Monique-Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/centerforbiblicalunity/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/centerforbiblicalunityYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealMoniqueDWebsite: https://www.centerforbiblicalunity.com/Melissa-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/

The New World Translation made by the Jehovah's Witness religion is one of the most distorted translations I've ever seen. It's made by Jehovah's Witnesses for Jehovah's Witness theology. This means there have been a LOT of changes made to it to fit their beliefs. But even then, is it possible to use it to show them the Gospel and even show them that Jesus is Jehovah God, one of the most repulsive doctrines by the religion? My guest Vada Hedgeman, a former gang member now turned apologist, has a very creative strategy for doing just that. Join us and see how using their own publications is one of the best ways to get through to them. FOLLOW:Vada's Social Media-YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/IsHeARealOneVadaRealMCInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/vadarealmc/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/VadaRealMCMy 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!

Elizabeth Urbanowicz, founder of Foundation Worldview, discusses the importance of teaching kids critical thinking and truth in a world filled with cultural influences. She shares insights on her Comparative Worldview Curriculum for kids and teens, emphasizing the need to equip children with transferable critical thinking skills to navigate today's information overload.

The type of feminism I see today is toxic, loud, and entitled. There's a way to right wrongs, and this is not it. I share my straightforward thoughts about how modern-day woke feminism has overcorrected its cause and now has become a cesspool of hatred, bitterness, and anger that has caused immeasurable damage to all future generations of women. Yes, I'm aware of our cultural climate right now and I know there will be people that will brazenly disagree with me on this and yes, I kinda go a little Ted Talk about this topic. But these topics are important and need to be discussed openly and freely. I welcome *respectful* divergent dialogue in the comments. melissadougherty.co●Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/●Instagram: @melissaldougherty ●Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meldougherty77●My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/

Guest Alisa Childers and host discuss the book 'Untamed' by Glennon Doyle, touching on topics like self-help, radical feminism, spirituality, and white supremacy. They explore the influence of the book on culture and the church, addressing themes of self-discovery and contrasting spiritual beliefs. The conversation includes insights on discernment, freedom, sin, justice, and the power of compassion in challenging discussions.

Join Natasha Crane, an author and Christian thinker, as she discusses the urgent challenge of secularism facing Christians today. Natasha highlights the alarming decline of a biblical worldview, revealing that only about 21% of evangelicals maintain it. She explores how secularism promotes self-authority and how feelings, happiness, and judging others have become cultural norms. With insights from her impactful book, she urges Christians to respond with clarity and compassion, encouraging them to be bold witnesses in a changing landscape.

Did Jesus actually perform miracles and did the Bible record it correctly? Was He just a magician? What about Jesus' claims to be God? Who was He praying to in the garden? What about the resurrection? Did Jesus actually rise again or are there other explanations for what happened? How Can we know for sure? I interviewed my friend Dr. Mikel Del Rosario, about these topics... who's much smarter than me. He's also known as the 'Apologetics Guy' on social media. Mikel's Website: http://apologeticsguy.com/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/
