Hey guys, Joshua Lewis here with Remnant Radio, and I'll tell you about Rimcon this spring in San Diego, California.

0:06.8

The dates are February 5th through the 7th, and the subject of the conference is growing in the Gifts of the Spirit.

0:12.3

You can join us there in person or via live stream, and what you're going to get out of that conference is some serious theological training on the gifts of the Spirit.

0:22.6

What are they? How do they operate?

0:28.1

There's also going to be opportunities to break out and practice spiritual gifts in a kind of biblical,

0:33.9

safe, and orderly way. We've got lectures from myself, Michael Miller, Michael Roundtry, John Mark Baker, from the Minor Prophets, and Dr. Sam Storms. So if you're looking to move beyond just the theoretical and learning the theology of

0:41.3

spiritual guests, but you're actually wanting to start practicing them for yourself,

0:45.2

I'd encourage you to come out and hang out with us February 5th through the 7th there in San

Diego, California.

Hey everybody, welcome to the wonderful world of Remnant Radio. Today I've got Anthony Schoeman with us. We're going to be discussing Sister Amy Simple McPherson. It's going to be an exciting episode. Talking about life, teachings, the good, the bad, the ugly. It's going to be a great program. You guys stay tuned. You were watching The Remnant Radio, a crowd-funded show where interview pastors, teachers, historians, and theologians from different churches and denominations. My name is Joshua Lewis, and this is my co-host, Michael Roundtree. Together, we want to help you break outside of your theological echo chambers. If you're interested in learning about history, theology, or the gifts of the spirit, this is the show for you. It's going to be a great program.

1:29.1

Every time I've had Anthony on, we've had a spectacular time, a lot of fun. I really enjoyed

1:34.2

talking about race in the assemblies of God, the history of the assemblies of God, two prior

1:39.9

episodes that we've done. Go back and watch those episodes. They're pretty spectacular.

1:44.5

Anthony's got a really diverse education. And I have found that people who read broadly,

1:50.5

study broadly, they're really interesting to talk to, which, you know, I would say that since

1:57.1

that's kind of what I do, right? So a little bit of confirmation bias there. But without further ado, I want to, well, I say without further ado, I actually have to do a little bit more due.

Anthony, I'll have you introduce yourself in your ministry. But before I do that, I've got to ask Michael Roundtree to give me some witty banter. How's your day over there in Oklahoma, Michael?

2:36.6

How's my day? I don't know that I have any witty banter for you. But my day is going well, got back from Thanksgiving break, had a good time with the family. So, and excited about this show with Amy Simple McPherson. Is she going to be on?

2:51.2
