A lot of people have asked, so Jimmy and Joe are talking about the process of developing leaders, and elders in particular, in the local church. How do you identify potential leaders, and what does training look like? How does Redeemer Fellowship go about all this? Plus, the guys talk about Jimmy's back tattoo, Joe's unsightly birthmark, and Jimmy creates an inappropriate URL and directs it to Joe's blog.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/doctrine-and-devotion/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

Joe and Jimmy sit down to have a casual, but biblical, chat about whether or not God answers the prayers of unbelievers. He certainly “hears” every prayer, but who has the ear of God? And what would it mean if God did answer the prayer of the unregenerate? And what about those passages that seem to say God doesn't always hear the prayers of his own people? Plus, Jimmy breaks the news to Joe: Redeemer is not a megachurch.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/doctrine-and-devotion/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
