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 Cristianismo Espiritualidad Ministerio y Evangelismo

  • Assisted Pregnancy - A Biblical View

    Assisted Pregnancy - A Biblical View
    Apr 13 2026
    In a world where marriage is increasingly undervalued, many Christian couples who long for children find themselves facing difficult and emotional decisions when pregnancy does not come easily.

    Modern medicine offers a range of assisted pregnancy options, but these can raise important biblical and ethical questions. What should a couple do when they are struggling to conceive? What choices are available? And which options are consistent with the teaching of Scripture? In this podcast, we explore both sides — the medical alternatives and the biblical principles that should guide Christian couples seeking to honor God in this sensitive area.

    Helping us navigate this complex topic are Mike and Adrienne D'Offay, an eldership couple in Joshua Generation, together with Dr Louise Dauth, a general practitioner with a special interest in women’s health. Our desire is to provide clarity, compassion, and biblical wisdom for couples walking this challenging journey.

  • Manning up - The Man Your Family Needs

    Manning up - The Man Your Family Needs
    Apr 6 2026
    We are living in a confusing time for men.
    On one side, men are told to step back, soften, and suppress strength.
    On the other side, when they step forward, they are accused of being controlling or toxic.

    Many men feel caught between emasculation and accusation.

    But the real question is not:
    “What does society say a man should be?”
    The real question is:
    “What kind of man does God call a man to be?”

    Families don’t need perfect men.
    They need faithful men.
    Present men.
    Responsible men.

    Manning up is not about dominance.
    It is about responsibility.

  • The Church's Responsibility to the Poor

    The Church's Responsibility to the Poor
    Mar 30 2026
    The church has always been called to care for the poor. From the Old Testament to the early church, Scripture makes it clear that compassion for those in need is not optional—it is part of faithful Christian living. We are called to show mercy, to give generously, and to help those who are suffering.

    But the church also has a unique mission. It is not simply a social agency or a government program. The church exists to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ and to make disciples. That raises an important question for our time: How do we care for the poor without losing our focus on the gospel?

    In recent years, the language of social justice has become more prominent in Christian circles. While the pursuit of justice and compassion is biblical, there is a danger when social action begins to replace gospel proclamation. The church must never forget that people’s greatest need is not only physical provision, but spiritual salvation.

    So the challenge is to find the right balance. The church must meet real needs, show real love, and serve the poor faithfully—while keeping the gospel at the very center of its mission.

    In simple terms:

    We care for the poor because of the gospel, and we proclaim the gospel because it is the greatest gift we can give to the poor.
