Bible Talks: Let’s talk about End Times
In today's Bible Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast, we are turning our attention to Matthews 25:1-13. Now, the theme of this text, as well as all of the Lectionary text for this week, seems to be about the end times, or the "second coming of Christ." And, just to be honest...this is my least favorite topic to speak on or speak about. Why? Because I have so much uncertainty about it. People throw out terms like pre-tribulation, post-tribulation, pre-millennial, post-millennial, a-millennial. And of course, let's not forget the massive discussions on the "Rapture." Well, I will admit that even after the ton of research I have done…

In today's Bible Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast, we turned out attention to a section of the longer reading for this coming Sunday. The reading is Philippians 4:1-9 but verses 4-7 just hit me hard this week so I wanted to talk about those. Specifically, I wanted to talk about the instruction to not worry, or as some texts record, don't be anxious for anything. What? Have you met me? Today, I get a little real on this. I have struggled with worry in my life so I know I needed to hear this one. I hope it might encourage you to. If nothing else, maybe you…

Table Talks with Midge Noble: Author of the new book, “Gay with God.”
Look who's back. My wonderful guest today is Midge Noble, coach and brand new author. Midge appeared on episode 95 if you want to go back and listen to that. But today, I can't wait for for you to hear all about her new book, "Gay with God." By the way, listen for her laugh. It will make you day.

Midge has worked as a school counselor, mental health therapist, and in private practice. She has a BA in Theology,…

Bible Talks: “I believe in God, the Father Almighty…”
On today's Bible Talks episode of the Coffee with Keith podcast, we are going to do something a little different. As I explain in the podcast, I was asked to speak this coming Sunday at a church; however, instead to preaching a text as I normally wood, they asked me to speak on the first line of the Apostle's Creed. So, as I gather all my thoughts on this, I though... What better place to get some of this out than on my podcast? So, that's what this is about. I am going to talk about this expression, concentrating on "GOD" and "Father." I hope you will hear the heart…

Bible Talks from Matthew 20.1-16: Can we talk about Jealousy?
On today's Bible Talk episode, we see Jesus teaching as he often did...through story. This story is about the land owner who hired workers at different times of the day and when it came time to pay them...well, he paid them all the same. As you can imagine, and perhaps would feel personally, the ones who got hired in the morning weren't happy. So, why this story? And more importantly, what might we take from it? On today's coffee chat, I share a few of my thoughts on it.

Table Talks: Forgiving is hard, so how do we do it?
Forgiveness is a topic that I have spent much time discussing with my clients over the years. Let's be honest, it's hard for most of us to do. But, the truth is...it's critical to our healing. I believe this with every part of my being. I know it personally and have seen it professionally. So, if this is true, how do we do it. Well, today, I am going to share a little of my teaching on forgiveness. I hope it will help you.
