À propos de cet audio

The paradox of the Christian faith involves losing one's life to find it and dying to oneself to gain it (Mark 8:34-35). As citizens of heaven we work, study, love and live here on the earth. The podcast features real conversations aimed at helping believers live for Christ while being grounded in the truth as they navigate life in this secular world. Hosted by Wayne Turner and Nadene Badenhorst for Joshua Generation Church with Michael d'Offay giving eldership oversight.Copyright Joshua Generation Church, Cape Town, South Africa Christianisme Pastorale et évangélisme Spiritualité

  • AI, Truth & The Believer
    Sep 15 2025
    In this episode, Dylan Jones and Mike Davies—elders in the life of JoshGen—join Alain Joffe, a digital specialist with a focus on AI, to tackle one of today’s most urgent topics: artificial intelligence. AI is transforming communication, decision-making, ethics, and even how we live out our faith in Christ. Together they ask: How can Christians discern truth in an era of deepfakes and data manipulation? What theological questions arise from machine learning, automation, and the rise of general AI? And how should church elders, leaders and believers respond to these ethical and pastoral challenges? This conversation offers a biblically grounded guide to help the Church think clearly, respond wisely, and stay faithful in a rapidly changing digital world.

  • Spiritual Disciplines - From Duty to Intimacy
    Sep 8 2025
    Many of us practice prayer, worship, Bible reading, fasting, and meditation—but often they can feel like boxes to tick rather than pathways to knowing God more deeply. In this episode, we’ll explore where these disciplines truly fit within our daily devotions. Are they duties we must perform, or are they invitations to intimacy? Paul reminds us in 1 Timothy that physical training has some value, but godliness is valuable in every way—holding promise for this life and the life to come. Join us as we discover how these spiritual practices can move beyond routine into relationship, shaping our hearts to love Christ more." Demetri, Karen and Ruan share some of their experiences together with principles from God's Word.

  • Trusting God's Marriage Plans - Pierre and Juliet
    Sep 1 2025
    Today, we share a powerful testimony of God’s redemptive love and perfect timing. Join us as we hear the incredible journey of Pierre and Juliet van der Westhuizen — a story of how God brought together two hearts from very different paths. Pierre, who walked a road marked by sexual brokenness, and Juliet, who faithfully waited for the man of God she believed God had promised, found their lives intertwined by divine design. Against the doubts of friends, family, and even church leadership, their marriage journey became a walk of faith—trusting that what God had joined together, no one could tear apart. This is a story of grace, courage, and the relentless goodness of God in the making of a marriage.
