Insights on Light Bulb Changing: Charismatics, Calvinists, Armenians, Baptists The video transcript humorously explores how different religious groups approach the task of changing a light bulb. Charismatics believe in actively changing the bulb and praying against darkness, Calvinists trust in predestination, Armenians rely on collective effort to ensure the light stays on, and Baptists are left with an unfinished response. The light bulb scenario is used to highlight the unique beliefs and practices of each group in a lighthearted manner. #lightbulbjokes #charismatic #Calvinists #Armenians #Baptists #spiritualhumor #religiousjokes #funnyvideos #viralvideos #vizard

Christians aren’t getting enough heat for what is happening in Pal-ine. There are more Christian Zi*onists in the United States alone than there are Jews in the entire world, and it is directly because of Christian Zio*nism that Izrael has the kind of military, political, and social power that it has. Jewish Zio.nism without Christian Zio.nists would just be a fringe extremist movement without any systemic power. White Christianity is responsible for countless atrocities throughout history, where they used a bastardized version of their faith to justify chattel slavery, gen-o-cide, rape, destruction of the lands they came across, and so much else. Christians: you have a direct responsibility to push back against the extremism in your community and to dismantle the systems of oppression that your ancestors put into place and which you still benefit from today. And I expect to see you making A LOT more noise about Pal-ine.

I am a proud Zionist. Zionism is the belief that Israel should exist. Over 95% of Jews are Zionists. Millions of non-Jews, including President Biden, are Zionists. Any decent human should be. There is a fringe minority of anti-zionist Jews, like there is a fringe minority of Americans who believe the US should not exist. They do not legitimize anti-Zionist and anti-American hate-groups.

Why Faith on Fire? *hint: missionary disciples* Q: Our parish already has a pastoral plan which invites lay people to become actively involved: why do we need Faith on Fire?   Personal encounter with Christ is the foundation of all other parish renewal initiatives: Faith on Fire helps build that relationship with Christ in your parish, helping animate 'intentional disciples' in the parish community. If we begin every new parish initiative with a focus on building this relationship, then we will have actively engaged parishioners: 'missionary disciples', ready and willing to support the life of the parish. Without it, we only have endless plans. 

IBSI Pastors Presents: Vision 2050: Most of the World’s Christians will be in Africa — Tuesday, October 15 @ 8PM Eastern Description: According to Pew Center Research, Africa and Latin America will be home to the largest population of Christians. Also according to research, Africa is home to the most devout followers of Jesus despite suffering some of the worst Islamist persecution in places like Nigeria and Sudan. As the Christian population in America and in the Western world decreases, what do Black American church leaders need to know about their Christian brothers and sisters in Africa? Why is support for Israel so important among most African Christians? And how can these two Christian communities work together for the future strength and prosperity of the entire Church? IBSI Speakers Bureau Chief and South African, Olga Meshoe Washington joins Pastor Dumisani Washington for this timely discussion, IBSI’s final ‘Pastors Presensts’ of 2024.
