Ephesians 3:14-21

Gospel Rant

09/28/21 • 38 min

We have got nothing personally against Sunday School. Our main host, Dr. Bill Senyard was a Lead Pastor for over 25 years. It's just that churches serve a declining number people—each loved by God. Did you know that 2/3rds of young adults have left churches. One researcher has predicted that 20% of churches shutter their doors in the next 18 months. In 1990, only 7% of Americans reported having no religion. Thirty years later, in 2020, the percentage claiming to be nonreligious had quadrupled, with almost 3 in 10 Americans having no religion. There are now more nonreligious Americans than affiliates of any one single religious tradition, including the two largest: Catholicism and evangelical Protestantism.
We are a single generation from becoming a post-Christian nation.
Why? You may not like these reasons or you may get defensive but here they are.
1) Churches are seen as largely irrelevant
2) Churches are considered unsafe places
3) Churches are just irrelevant, as uncivil as every other institution.
Time to change. Whether you agree or not, the Gospel Rant is meant to be a unique mind-clearing elixir—not everybody’s cup of tea for sure. Our main goal is to educate, challenge the status quo, admit our many errors and ultimately to wake Christians up. We may even pick a fight or two along the way, just to get people's attention. Honestly, wouldn’t you admit that you’ve been bored with the standard talking-head fare for a while?
Us too. Welcome to the Gospel Rant.

The Eyes Of Jesus (SOS24)

Gospel Rant

08/20/23 • 27 min

There is something in the direct unaverted gaze of Jesus that initially causes us to look away, to close our eyes. There is shame, there is fear of seeing disappointment, or his notice of some ugly that we haven’t been able to wash away. But the secret working of the Holy Spirit is to make us look direct into his eyes. It is life changing. Come and see what happened to the Queen when she does. Help us get the word out. This could change the lives of so many Christians.

Greatest Gospel Ever (SOS18)

Gospel Rant

07/09/23 • 32 min

If the Song of Songs is the greatest presentation of the gospel in the Old Testament, Movement 4 is the greatest gospel presentation in the entire songs. When I do a Kiss of God weekend, this is Saturday afternoon, the mic-drop moment, that talk that ties it altogether and changes lives. It's not just about exegeting a great piece of ancient Hebrew poetry, it is really seeing what God is doing with those of us who have been so shredded, abused, dismissed and lost in this falling groaning creation. Not heaven, but even now, a little or a lot. Don’t miss this one and the next four.

God's Love for the Unlovable Samaritan

Gospel Rant

10/15/23 • 27 min

Now that we've laid out a more biblical view and understanding of God's love, let's see it in practice. Our first case study is a really good one. It is hard to think of a more unlovable or more unloved woman than this unnamed Samaritan woman. That's where Jesus finds her, but he doesn't leave her there. What happens when this unworthy woman bumps into Jesus' love for the unworthy? You'll see. Enjoy.

Gospel Rant #105: The Radical Troubling Gospel- God Loves UNREPENTANT Sinners

Gospel Rant

02/07/19 • 3 min

Time is over for tepid watered-down Gospel presentations. What Jesus actually accomplished for Jesus-Followers 2000 years ago is not only amazing, but also troubling and well over our paygrade. But only such a Gospel has the power to make us believe (Rom 1:16)--today, tomorrow and the next day. Why are 4000 churches closing a year? I think that we are bored to tears, with so little change to show.

Gospel Rant #113: Hey Mills, We've Got Your Backs!

Gospel Rant

03/13/19 • 9 min

Barna just released a study that they said implied that Millennials weren't fans of evangelizing. Why? Per the survey, they worried that evangelism implied judging others. I believe that Barna and later CT buried the lead. Young adults, Gospel Rant has your backs.

Romans: The Book of Microaggressions 16

Gospel Rant

03/10/21 • 14 min

Dr Bill Senyard is starting a new Gospel Rant series looking at the wildly scandalous offensiveness of Paul's Letter to the Romans. Microaggression after microaggression, then and today. The podcast series has a warning label, "This podcast, and in fact, the entire Letter to the Romans is extremely riddled with microaggressions. So, if you are not willing to be ticked off and offended--a lot-- check out some other podcast.”
The new On-line, Biblical experiential journey, The Dance is mentioned. You can check it out at www.The-Dance.org. Any questions? Contact [email protected].

Smarter Pro-Lifers

Gospel Rant

02/14/24 • 27 min

Dr. Bill Senyard here with Gospel App Ministries, Good Enough Parent, and the Gospel Rant Podcast. Look, here’s the thing. I think that we pro-life Christians can do a much better job in this arena. In fact, I wonder if we are shooting ourselves in the foot more that we want to admit. Many years ago, the comedian George Carlin lambasted pro-lifers for our inconsistencies—and poor messaging. To a large degree, I think he was right. Things have not changed much. We can do better, be encouraged. This show is to throw my two cents into the mix.

This was a special one-off show. I hope that you are listening to and enjoying my current series on my youTube channel (DrBillSenyard) and the Gospel Rant podcast called Power2Change, about how the power of the gospel can actually begin to truly defeat addictions, whether it is to drugs, porn, alcohol, sex, social media, or anything else.

If this has benefitted you, please pass this on.
