In the Red

A Revealing Resolution

Join us in this thought-provoking episode of the In the Red Podcast with Anthony Hart as we delve into the deeper meaning behind Christmas and the true purpose of Christ's coming. In a candid conversation, Anthony reflects on the brokenness within the church and the flawed mentality that often accompanies the holiday season. He explores the common practice of building up to Christmas and Easter while neglecting the rest of the year, likening it to the "football season of church."
Anthony challenges the notion that the gift of salvation and eternal life with the Father should be the only focus, emphasizing that Jesus' purpose extends far beyond that. He introduces a series centered around the 11 statements Jesus made in the New Testament about why He came to Earth, revealing a depth to His mission that goes beyond simply dying for humanity.
As Anthony shares his perspective, he highlights the limitations of New Year's resolutions, drawing parallels between seeking resolutions and seeking revelations. He distinguishes between resolutions, which are often based on fleeting emotions or comparisons to others, and revelations, which are surprising facts that become known and lead to profound changes within individuals.
Through engaging anecdotes and relatable examples, Anthony brings to light the transformative power of understanding the revelations found within the scriptures. He challenges listeners to move beyond surface-level resolutions and embrace the deeper truths that Jesus came to unveil.
Don't miss this enlightening episode that will inspire you to seek revelations rather than resolutions, guiding you towards a profound understanding of the purpose behind Christ's coming and empowering you to experience true transformation in your life.

The Power of Jesus’ Words and His Mission for His Disciples

In this episode of In the Red Podcast, Anthony Hart delves into the biblical teachings of Jesus Christ and his mission beyond his birth as the Savior. Through 11 statements made by Jesus in the Gospels, the podcast uncovers the knowledge and wisdom that came with his arrival, beyond the simple fact that he paid for our sins.
 
The podcast highlights the challenge of preaching and studying these teachings, particularly for those who have not memorized the first four books of the Bible, which were ingrained in the Jewish culture at the time of Jesus.
 
Host Anthony Hart discusses how Jesus came to restore the birthright of the Jewish people and prepare his disciples to carry his light, love, truth, and life to the world.
 
The podcast presents two passages of Scripture from Luke and John that describe Jesus as both fire and light, and emphasizes that Jesus' teachings were not separate from his mission to save humanity. The podcast explores how these concepts of fire and light were significant in Jesus' time and how they continue to have relevance in our lives today.
 
Ultimately, In the Red Podcast aims to help listeners understand and apply Jesus' teachings to their lives, so that they too can become carriers of his light and love to the world around them.

It’s Time to Pivot - Access vs Excess

In the Red Podcast with Anthony Hart is a show about spirituality, faith, and how to live a fulfilling life in Christ. In this episode, Anthony talks about how God has been revealing different words to him, and how these words have become the pivot series. He explains the importance of pivoting in life, comparing it to the pivot foot in basketball, which changes your direction and trajectory. Anthony emphasizes that a pivot is not to keep you locked in, but to position you to do something in a different direction. He talks about how the pandemic has forced many of us to pivot and move in the direction that God wants us to.
Anthony then introduces the two words that have been in his spirit all week: excess and access. He talks about how we live in a world where the pursuit is excess and how we always want more. However, he emphasizes that an excess of something is not necessarily good because it means that you are not using it. He invites listeners to consider the invitation of having access to more without having an excess of it. Anthony then discusses how the value of excess is limiting, while the value of access is abundant. He talks about how having access to something means that you have exactly what you need and an abundance that you can give away.
Throughout the episode, Anthony uses personal anecdotes and humor to make his points relatable and engaging. He draws on examples from the Bible and everyday life to illustrate his ideas and provides practical advice for listeners who want to pivot in their own lives. This episode will appeal to anyone who is looking for guidance on how to live a more fulfilling life and wants to deepen their relationship with God.

What Am I Doing? - Why Am I Here

This podcast episode is a continuation of a sermon series that has been going on since January called "Why Am I Here?" The focus of the series has been on the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5 through 7 and the foundation of kingdom principles.
 
Pastor Anthony discusses how Jesus was not necessarily saying anything new, but was putting more emphasis on certain concepts. He emphasizes the importance of not just talking the talk but walking the walk, and being a living example of the principles one believes in.
 
The episode centers around the Golden Rule, which is a concept that has been taught in many religions throughout history. The speakers explore how the Golden Rule is not just a Christian principle but is present in many religions, including Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism.
 
Pastor Anthony also discusses the importance of understanding the entire picture of God, and how Christianity is an extension of Judaism. He emphasizes that God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and that the Old Testament is about discipline, while the New Testament is about correction.
 
Pastor Anthony encourages listeners not to get stuck in the disciplinary mode and to embrace the correction that comes with a relationship with God. Overall, this episode is about exploring the concept of the Golden Rule and the importance of understanding the entire picture of God.

Dismissing the Accusers - Why Am I Here?

Welcome to the latest In the Red Podcast episode, where we discuss topics relevant to the Christian faith. In this episode, we have a special guest, Anthony Hart, who will be sharing his thoughts on a subject that he believes the church needs to hear. With the prevalence of the Facebook model in the world around us, we face challenging issues that require us to examine our beliefs and values.
One such issue is the recent shooting in Nashville, which has prompted many to ask what we, as Christians, think about such events. As we delve deeper into this topic, we will also explore the Sermon on the Mount and how Jesus attempted to establish a kingdom foundation. In Chapter 7:24, Jesus says, "Everyone who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock." This is the foundation that he was trying to establish, to restore what he had given in the Old Testament and to set the table for those of us who don't have that initial invitation as a Jewish person to understand the currency and value of the kingdom.
Through this Sermon, Jesus is showing us how we can build a structurally strong and sound space so that we can do what He has called us to do. Join us as we explore the power of this Sermon and how it can help us navigate the challenges of today's world.
