EPISODE SUMMARY
Are you part of God's household? Our eternal destiny matters on our answer. Yes, He does have a house. It is the universe and all that is in it. It is His House and His Rules. ISIAH 66:1 1 Thus says the LORD, “Heaven is My throne and the earth is My footstool. Where then is a house you could build for Me? And where is a place that I may rest? 2“For My hand made all these things, Thus, all these things came into being,” declares the LORD. “But to this one I will look, To him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word.
Mary and I began to study the Bible using some principles from loveisrael.org. Everything in our lives changed. The power of God for change came as well and His presence. We experienced true Grace. Join us for this Podcast for Pewsitters.
EPISODE SUMMARY
When does God use people? Is it random? Or does God use people who are concerned that His will is carried out? Let's find out with Podcast for Pewsitters Ric and Mary Joyner.
Podcast for Pewsitters presents: Relationship Parenting
This podcast is lively with two generations of parenting opinions in the studio. One set of parents raised their children and the other is in the process wrangling a 5-year-old! Both sets of parents discuss child raising techniques and mistakes. Join us for the podcast to learn a new paradigm of parenting called “Relationship Parenting”. Relationship parenting is teaching your children to have a relationship with Christ each day.
Who will benefit from this podcast? Parents of children and grandparents that want to support the mission of parenting to have a relationship with Christ.
More Information
What is relationship parenting? And what is the Scriptural basis for relationship parenting? Let’s discuss the styles of parenting today. One type of parenting is called modeling. In other words, we “model” good “Christian” behavior in front of our children and then expect them to model that behavior when they grow up. However, this can produce children who are “religious” thus “going through the motions” because it pleases you. The danger of this type of parenting is that the kids don’t “connect” with the religion and can abandon what we modeled either before or after they leave home. As adults we know our relationship with Christ is vital for all aspects of our life. Wouldn’t that be the same for a child? We remember as children that we had fears, troubles in relationships and wanting to be heard. Let’s point them to Christ each and every day. We are raising “little sinners” like ourselves. We need help!
Let’s turn to our bibles and read about two different generations. One followed God’s will into the promised land and the other abandoned even knowing God and they were in the land He gave them!
Compare all verses in context
This is what we hope will happen in our parenting:
Proverbs 22:6 (New American Standard Bible)
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
(Note the phrase; “train up” is dedicate. As in dedicating the temple of the Lord. We are to dedicate our children AS temples of the Lord’s dwelling. This is where teaching a relationship with God and obedience to His word in their daily lives is so critical. The goal of the Lord in the old and new testament is to “dwell with His people” such as the garden, the sanctuary in the wilderness, the temple, and then finally Jesus Christ) We show them how through modeling and they implement a relationship with Christ.
Judges 2:7 (New American Standard Bible)
And the people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great works of the LORD, that he did for Israel.
This is what we do not want!
Judges 2:10 (New American Standard Bible)
And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the LORD, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.
This scene is playing itself out in the world today with the children we raised abandoning God. Did you notice what I shared? Abandoning God, not just church!
How then do we model correct behavior that pleases God AND to teach our kids to have a relationship with Christ? Only through the help and inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Our God wants to build His kingdom in those little hearts of our children. Let’s help Him do that!

Exodus Chapter 3 Part 1 is a pivot point in the Exodus story of the Holy Bible. We are at the time and place that God is acting on fulfilling prophecy or rather a promise to Abraham 400 years before! God speaks and it happens. This is how we know the Bible is true! Prophecy is inherently related to the fulfillment of something God says will happen. Our God means what He says and as Kingdom people, we want to respond to His will and look to the reasons God is speaking, and for what purposes and to whom, and if there are outcomes our Savior is looking to create. The sons of Israel are in dire straits within Egypt. God is listening to their heart cries. Let us respond to His ways. Join our online bible study through our podcast for pewsitters.
Do you know we are in a time of prophetic fulfillment for the last days? How can we line up with what God is doing? Let’s take a look at how Moses is responding to being confronted by God with an interesting sign…a burning bush! How can we respond as Moses did? Our bible study will focus on why the children of Israel are in the wilderness, and why there are applications for us today! The wilderness is dependence on God. The Hebrew word for wilderness contains the word DBAR. This word is used many times when God speaks. In fact, it is a name for God. Yahweh Speaks. Our Lord wants us to obey His word and will speak to us when we desire to get under His rule in our lives. Join Ric and Mary Joyner for Podcast for pewsitters to learn lessons from the burning bush.

Ever feel pummeled? That life is throwing circumstances at you? Could these be trials and tests? If we put ourselves under the Kingdom of God seeking His will and to be pleasing to our King then these are indeed for our good. But what if we react wrongly or make a bad decision? What if a series of events start that you can’t stop and perhaps people reject you? Is God in this with you? This podcast is about Ric and Mary Joyner going through a pummeling time. Moses in Exodus 2 Part 5 has made a horrible decision to help God save the Hebrew people from Egypt. A major life change happens as a result. Ric and Mary experience several major life changes that hurt! Ever felt like this? Moses goes from “top of the world” to what appears to be the lowest job on Earth, and a new family, culture and leaving loved ones behind. This is painful, this is disorientating, this is sad. How will he ever recover? God is with Him. He is with us. Listen or watch with Ric and Mary how God moves for those who love Him and want to be Kingdom people. The bible study principle: "The Holy Bible invades our life" is real. We believe that God uses circumstances to reinforce what we are studying and thus is the reason for the pummeling! So the Lord is allowing you to experience the lessons of Scripture! And in the next few podcasts we will show you how this principle is working with people who decide to study the Holy Bible together especially as husband and wife.
