Stewardship
What happens when church leaders abuse their power? More importantly—what does Jesus expect from ALL of us when He returns?In this episode, we break down Matthew 24:45-51, where Jesus gives a serious warning about faithful stewardship. This isn’t just for pastors—it’s for anyone trying to live for Christ in their 20s and figure out what God has entrusted to them.We talk about: ✓ Why bad church leadership hurts so much (and what Jesus says about it) ✓ The real problem with waiting for Jesus to come back ✓ What it means to be a faithful steward of your time, talents, and treasures ✓ How integrity and hard work connect to eternal rewards ✓ Why Jesus took our punishment so we could receive His rewardThe bottom line: Jesus is coming back, and when He does, He’s going to find us either faithfully stewarding what He’s given us—or not. The question is, which one will you be?SUPPORT THE PODCAST: 💰 Donate: amenpodcast.com/donate 💸 Venmo: @amenpodcast 💵 Cash App: $amenalexYour support keeps these episodes ad-free and helps us continue producing content every week!CONNECT WITH US: 🌐 Website: amenpodcast.com 📍 Location: Kauai, Hawaii ⛪ Church: House Church (meets in our garage!)

Left Behind
Biblical Truth About the Rapture | Matthew 24:32-41Everything you thought you knew about being "left behind" is backwards. The popular Left Behind series got it wrong, and it's time to set the record straight with what Scripture actually teaches.In this episode, we dive deep into Matthew 24:32-41 to discover why being left behind is actually God's plan for His people, not a punishment. Using the account of Noah as our framework, we'll explore how the popular rapture theology from the 1990s has created an unbiblical escapism mentality that contradicts God's true plan for renewal, not escape.Join us as we examine the historical origins of dispensational theology, break down the Greek text, and reveal how Christ was "taken" so that we could be "left behind" to reign with Him in the new heavens and new earth.Support Our Ministry:* Website: AmenPodcast.com* Venmo: @amenpodcast* Cash App: $amenalexKey Scriptures Discussed:* Matthew 24:32-41* Genesis 7:23* Romans 8:19-21* Revelation 21:1-5* Philippians 2:6-8* 2 Peter 3:11-14Connect With Us: House Church meets in our garage in Kauai, Hawaii.
