Ep# 300 Homosexuality And The Bible

On this episode of G220 Radio we will be discussing the topic of Homosexuality and the Bible: The final straw before God's judgment. Hosted by: Ricky Gantz, Mike Miller & George Alvarado w/Guest: Keith Giles This time a year many cities are having parades and celebrations of pride in support of the LGBT+, this is a very serious issue that is becoming more and more acceptable in our nation and even more concerning is that it is become more acceptable by those who profess the name of Christ and claim to be christian churches. Just this past weekend here in Cleveland, Ohio many came out to the activities and the parade and many so-called churches participated in the events. G220 Ministries along with Striving For Eternity Ministries which was in town hosting an Equip Ohio conference partnered together to preach the gospel at this event. While many want to say it is unloving to say the Bible condemns homosexuality, the truth is the most loving thing a Christian can do is warn others to repent and turn to Christ.  Well on this episode of G220 Radio we will discuss this issue with Keith Giles who is a professing christian who holds to an affirming position of homosexuality, which we at G220 would strongly disagree with. Be sure to tune in and listen as we engage with Mr. Giles on this important topic. Find out more about the ministry and radio show at: http://www.g220ministries.com

Ep# 295 Hermeneutics

On this episode of G220 Radio, we will be discussing Hermeneutics....Hermen Who??? Yes Hermeneutics, which is such an important topic to discuss because many professing Christians today have never heard the term, let alone know what the principles of interpreting scriptures are.  One of the main reasons why so many today that call themselves Christians struggle and are lead into so many false teachings and misinterpretations of the Word of God is because they don't apply proper hermeneutics when study the scriptures. So be sure to tune in as Ricky Gantz, Mike Miller, & George Alvarado as we discuss Hermeneutics with our guest Christopher Williams

Ep# 294 Honoring Widows: An Interview w/ Susan Pollock

Susan Pollock is a saint in the Lord who has survived her husband, Bryan Pollock*, who planted Pilgrim Bible Church in Washington in 1999 (http://www.pilgrimbible.org/sof.shtml). She homeschools 9 beautiful children, and she ministers to other widows in the local church as well facilitates bible studies for young, married women. One interesting fact about Susan is that she is a natural descendant of the Pilgrims, John Alden & Priscilla Mullins. Yes, the ones that travelled to Plymouth, Massachusetts. Susan enjoys traveling, fellowshipping with Christians, and spending time with her children. But she also has a desire for serving the local church and ministering to widows. This is truly one of many unpopular ministries within the western church, and some within the body may not be aware of the need. Thankfully, Susan has had the blessing to be supported and taken care by her local church, but we seek to interview her in the hopes of learning from her about how to biblically approach the subject of widows You don’t want to miss this episode! *For more on Bryan Pollock, you can listen to his sermons here: https://bit.ly/2H3hXMo, or link to the blog Susan was writing when her husband was ill https://bryanpollock.blogspot.com. Bryan Pollock was a graduate of Western Conservative Baptist Seminary in Portland, Oregon where earned a Master of Divinity in 1987. After a year-long internship in Canada, he began his first pastorate at Bethesda Baptist Church in Tacoma, Washington. After a more than ten-year-long ministry, during which time the Holy Spirit began stirring Bryan in Reformed directions, he was called away from Bethesda to begin a new work, Pilgrim Bible Church, in 1999. In November of 2009, after a battle with colon cancer, the Lord took Bryan home to be with Him.
