In today’s episode, host Rebecca Berschwinger is joined by special guest Paige Cervantes for part two of their deep dive into the concept of the "lukewarm Christian."

Building on the message from Revelation 3:16—that God would rather we be hot or cold in our faith, not lukewarm—Rebecca and Paige break down three more key symptoms of a fading spiritual fire, discuss the subtle ways we might be ashamed of Jesus, and examine what it truly means to love others and share our faith.

This episode doesn't just point out the dangers of spiritual complacency; it also offers practical remedies for reigniting your passion and commitment to Christ. Join the conversation as they explore whether you can be lukewarm and still be saved, what the Bible says about spiritual zeal, and how to take meaningful action in your daily walk. Because even the smallest spark can pierce the darkness—all it takes is one little candle.

Bearing a Burden We’re Not Meant to Bear: Moms, Guilt, and God’s Sovereignty in Our Children’s Salvation.

Thu, 09 May 2024 14:04:59 -0400

Welcome to a very special Mother’s Day episode of “One Little Candle.”

In today’s episode (107), we’re exploring the heartfelt journey of mothers whose children might be wandering from or have rejected the path to God. It’s a tender spot many moms silently agonize over, and often, a burden of responsibility and guilt that weighs heavily on their hearts.

We’ll delve into the poignant story of Hannah from the book of 1 Samuel, a woman who knew deep desire and dedication when it came to her son, Samuel. Her story sheds light on the profound act of entrusting our child(ren) entirely to God.

In this episode, we’ll also query the often misinterpreted proverb, “train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it,” unpacking the nuances about parental influence and the personal spiritual paths our children choose. We’re here to offer an understanding that while the proverb speaks to guidance, it does not guarantee outcomes.

We’ll discuss how, as parents, our role is to saturate our children’s lives with God’s word, leading by example, but ultimately, we must leave their salvation in the sovereign hands of God.

For all mothers wrestling with feelings of guilt over your child’s spiritual journey, this episode aims to comfort you, inspire hope, and encourage you to keep your light shining for them, regardless of the paths they may roam. We will be reminded of the power of persistent prayer, the impermanence of parental control, and the overarching truth that the destiny of our children rests securely in the grace of God.

Masking the True Character of Jesus. Exposing the Deception of the “He Gets Us” Ad Campaign.

Mon, 04 Mar 2024 16:04:44 -0400

In today’s episode (101) of One Little Candle, we’ll explore the controversial “He Gets Us” campaign, an ambitious endeavor with a staggering $100 million funding aimed at rebranding Jesus for today’s younger generations.

As we wade through the narratives and outreach efforts of this movement—from its use of secular media strategies to its misrepresentation of today’s contentious societal issues—we examine:

The portrayal of Jesus as cool and relatable, and the implications this has for the gospel message.

The watering down of the truth and the treating of Jesus as a product in a consumer-driven culture.

The implications of this rebranding effort on the church’s mission and the potential manipulation involved.

The importance of not deviating from the core teachings of Jesus Christ.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone concerned with authenticity in faith and the implications of modern marketing within the church. Tune in, engage with the conversation, and let’s keep our gospel unashamed and undiluted!

Light Over Darkness. Wrapping Up the Refuting of Rainn Wilson’s Book, Soul Boom. Why We Need a Spiritual Revolution.

Mon, 19 Feb 2024 20:35:19 -0400

In this pivotal 100th episode, host, Rebecca Berschwinger, brings to a close the enlightening series refuting the popular yet misleading book “Soul Boom. Why We Need a Spiritual Revolution.”

Standing firm in the truth of the Scriptures, she dissects the author’s vision of utopia—a world where religious boundaries blur into a unified theory which outright ignore the reality of sin and mankind’s fallen nature. The author’s idea of a world at peace sans wars, rich in cultural harmony, etc. sounds beautiful, but there’s a twist..

Rebecca concludes the dissection of “Soul Boom” with a stern yet compassionate appeal to it’s author, Rainn Wilson, fervently expressing the necessity of recognizing Jesus Christ’s role in our eternal destiny.

Recognizing our unloving reaction to the mote in a fellow believers eye while removing the beam from our own. "Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Ep. 50 From Gay to Faith. The Amazing Testimony of a Woman Instantaneously Delivered From Homosexuality.

Sat, 11 Jun 2022 20:50:08 -0400

For 14 years, Anita Myles Dames, struggled with same-sex desires. As a result, over the years she searched for true clarity about her identity, “Was this the way God created me? Gay?” She would frequently ask herself. Receiving rejection, condemnation, and experiencing depression, caused her to live in isolation. In search of truth (still gay) between the years 2008-2012, she came to faith (believed in who God says He is) and went before the Lord, believing that He has all the answers. It was in the year 2013, the unexpected miracle transpired. God SPOKE DIRECTLY to Anita and instantly erased fourteen years of same-sex desires. After her supernatural encounter, Anita, out of complete obedience, humbly answered the call to share God's love. She encourages those struggling with same-sex desires through teachings on The Power Of Faith. Anita´s primary focus is educating such individuals on the key ingredients of her testimony: 1) The importance of the activation of one´s faith 2) Creating unity with God through prayer and studying of His word. Now through the guidance and leadership of the Holy Spirit, He allows her to: minister to the hearts of those who are currently battling—asking the question she too once asked, ¨Who Am I?", encourage and bring awareness to others, exclaiming God is able to renew their mind in Him, but it requires one's faith in God.

Ep. 26 Hope After a Stolen Inheritance. When the Rug is Ripped Out From Under You

Sun, 07 Nov 2021 18:11:10 -0400

After the death of my father, someone my siblings and I thought could be trusted, stole our family's belongings along with our inheritance, all without any legal recourse for my siblings and I. Perhaps you have suffered great hurt, rejection, betrayal and disappointment by someone you thought you could trust. Perhaps you've suffered loss or a great injustice as a result of the evil and malicious actions of another. It's terribly difficult and challenging to not harbor bitterness, resentment, and unforgiveness toward our offender. Especially if there seems to be no way to experience justice. But God makes a way for us in our trials, hurts, and afflictions. He makes a way for us to extend forgiveness and experience peace and hope while kicking bitterness and resentment to the curb! It may not be easy but nothing is impossible with God now is it? How does our loving and faithful Heavenly Father make a way for us in some if life's biggest messes? By reminding us of the unimaginable, imperishable inheritance that awaits those who are His! Join me for today's episode, where you'll be encouraged in your trials, hurts, and offenses to focus on and trust in what God has in store for you that will bring you great joy and can never be taken from you!

Fri, 08 Oct 2021 04:14:22 -0400

Lies lies and more lies! The enemy is striking hard and many believers don't have the tools to refute the prevailing cleverly crafted lies of our time. There are many myths out there about apologetics causing believers to assume that they cannot not nor should engage in apologetics. But they couldn't be more wrong. Join Sara and I as we discuss all things apologetic as we seek to encourage and empower you to contend for the faith and help to encourage and equip others to do the same. www.onelittlecandlepodcast.com www.christianpodcastcommunity.org less

Predestination. Election. Chosen. All these words are found throughout the Bible, yet they cause great controversy within the Church.

Ep.10 Good Christian or God-Poser? Part 2

Mon, 28 Jun 2021 19:05:01 -0400

Part 2 of an engaging and informative 2 part series. This episode is in response to a social media post aimed at Christians who not only stand by, but openly proclaim God's truths when it comes to sexual immorality. The author of the post labeled them as "God-posers." But is that true? Are Christians not loving their neighbor as Jesus did when they disapprove of anothers lifestyle? This episode closely examines the scriptures and reasoning the author of that post used to try and back-up their claim. Join me, and be encouraged, empowered, and equipped to stand firm in God's statutes and articulately respond to the twisting and misapplication of scripture used against Christians so that we can love our neighbor as Jesus did by speaking the truth to them in love. By the end of part 2 you will learn the distinct difference between a good Christian or a God-poser. www.onelittlecandlepodcast.com Link to song, My Hope is Built on Nothing Less: https://youtu.be/rkMapZB8qMk

June is gay pride month and the rainbow is everywhere you look.

The rainbow can be taken back and it's much easier than one might think! Join me and be greatly encouraged as I share with you ways in which the body of Christ can preserve the integrity of God's rainbow, the symbol of God's faithfulness, promise, love, and hope.
