PATH TO ZION PODCAST
Path To Zion explores the rediscovery of the Ancient Way that has been abandoned, forgotten or simply missed (in Its fullness) by mainstream Christianity. The host, Joel Spencer, speaks from a ”Hezekiah call” to declare to the Christianity of this age that there has been a Way already carved out, ready to be walked along by any who will follow the Firstborn Of Many Brethren, Yeshua Messiah (Jesus). (* The podcast is now also recorded in video format on Youtube @ Path To Zion Podcast.)

The series continues as we dive into the main text of the study - the account of Isaac redigging the wells of his father in Genesis chapter 26. The parallels within the text are astounding as we begin to apply them to and critique the Christian-American drive to become an established inhabitant as opposed to a travelling sojourner. Here, we begin to verse-by-verse examine this remarkable account.

The series gets going as we establish a biblical definition of what it means to "sojourn and await a native country" versus "dwell and permanently inhabit". The baseline for examining Genesis chapter 26 is laid in this first installment of the series that will challenge our national allegiances.

This episode is audio pulled from what was originally recorded in video format (on Youtube) and begins to lay the groundwork of what will be presented using the biblical text of Isaac redigging the wells of his father in Genesis chapter 26. Has the Christian evangelical majority become permanent residents of a land where they were meant to merely sojourn? Because of this, are they now reaping the fruits of mixing and idolatry? Let's find out.

Before you get all worked up at the title, it would do you well to know that I'm referencing what Holy Spirit spoke to me recently. In this episode, we will examine the importance of self control and fighting off the urge to air our grievances and grumble in anger. If a regenerated Christ-man receives some sort of satisfaction from such activity, we must ask why.

I will continue to push back against the broad evangelical message of this hour and say that the only way that the Church will truly advance is to confess Her own sin, error and weakness. In this episode we will discuss Hebrews chapter 12, verses 11 and 12 that tells us we're to "receive discipline that produces righteousness and then strengthen our weak hands and feeble knees." Until the Church aggressively chooses to remove Her gaze from everyone else's problems, She will continue on in Her own.

Spurgeon once explained via metaphor that if the Church is flowing and active, She will not be affected by circumstances that are ever-changing around Her. In this episode, we bring this truth to the here and now and pose some tough questions to those of us that make up the Body of Messiah.

This episode is primarily spontaneous commentary on the importance of properly reading, studying and walking out the written Word of God. Why do we study? How do we appropriate what we study correctly and just what is this mysterious Text anyway?

This episode is all over the place. In it we'll discuss, yet again, how this hour is full of endless opportunities for the Church to be sifted and remove Herself from the patterns of the world. Other topics include the importance of being honest with one another in an age of disappointment and how we are being pressed to "come out from among them" even further.

How's this for a title? In this episode I share a present-moment, personal circumstance that will set up a challenge for us to hardly examine our "rights", what we "deserve" and what is "fair". How eternally-minded are we? How connected to this natural life are we, really? Listen and find out!

This 2-part series continues and concludes here as we examine Abraham's willingness to cry out for God's mercy to be extended to the people of Sodom. We also look into Lot's primary downfall in regards to his family and explore other intriguing facts within Genesis 18 and 19 that we can apply to our lives today.
