Gospel Rant

After Jewish wedding feasts, the couple disappear into the chuppah for the marriage to be at last consummated. Usually it is a time of great joy and celebration. The Queen suspects that this will not be one of those times. Her dream romance is about to crack up. Is there anything that can save her story from becoming a tragedy? Support The Show: https://www.gospelrant.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

We are deep in Movement 4. Now the Queen is thrilled by the expectations of the final part of the marriage ceremony, but she is also terrified of her dark secret being discovered. There is nothing she can do. She is in too far. What will happen? Support The Show: https://www.gospelrant.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

If the Song of Songs is the greatest presentation of the gospel in the Old Testament, Movement 4 is the greatest gospel presentation in the entire songs. When I do a Kiss of God weekend, this is Saturday afternoon, the mic-drop moment, that talk that ties it altogether and changes lives. It's not just about exegeting a great piece of ancient Hebrew poetry, it is really seeing what God is doing with those of us who have been so shredded, abused, dismissed and lost in this falling groaning creation. Not heaven, but even now, a little or a lot. Don’t miss this one and the next four.Support The Show: https://www.gospelrant.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Movement #5. Christian men and woman are longing for real intimacy—we are tired of fake it til you make it, or your role is this and my role is this—just do it, or there are no roles, that should work. Worthy of ongoing dialogue, but the priority is that we, both sexes need healing. On paper, I get it. In the bed and in the heart, they are not working. The SOS shows us why.  “Sex can’t be intimate if you feel like you don’t matter.” The Great Sex Rescue, p. 28 Movement 5 is parallel to Movement 3. It is brilliant poetry. But we get to see an aspect of the Queen that she can no longer keep hidden. When the King Groom finds her, she cannot be vulnerable. She can’t be loved. She can’t love. She can’t have great sex. She can have intercourse—sure, but not the intimacy and closeness that she wants. The watchmen on the wall will not let her.  You can give her a book to read about intimacy, about sex, about true love. But she can’t. She needs a transforming power that rewires her beat up brain.  Point? This is where the King’s love finds all of us. We are so shredded emotionally and relationally we just can’t get there. Until… Bottom line? Man, woman, do you want great sex—not just more intercourse? Check it out. In this movement and in particularly in Movement 4, we will show you how to get there.  No shame, no working harder. That is not the core problem. You may be surprised. You need  healing.   Support The Show: https://www.gospelrant.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Are you tired of just intercourse? Wouldn't you rather intimacy? Looking at Movement 5, the parallel to Movement 3 of the Song of Songs.  The Queen’s problem is not that she is crazy, or disrespectful, or unsubmissive. She needs healing. From year 1, her midbrain has been beat up by disappointing relationships. When the King finds her, and me and you, she cannot be loved, or love in return. There is only one power fstat can begin to heal her issues. The Song shows us what that looks like.Support The Show: https://www.gospelrant.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

We are in Movement #3 of the Song of Songs. The Queen is so messed up and needy when God finds her, finds me today, that she triggers, emotionally dysregulates and runs away from his arms— to the city. It is irrational, it is self-destructive, it is counter everything that she wants and yet, her midbrain is in charge. Do we do that? Have you ever gone through an entire worship service check out? Distant. Hardly plugged in? God is there with you, loving you with all of the love in the universe. The Spirit is in your inner-being and you are largely oblivious. Maybe for a day or week, or month or even years. There is no ’sex’ in that city, only intercourse. Support The Show: https://www.gospelrant.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

What do women want? You do not become whole through legislation. You do not become whole by muscling through insecurities. Even counseling has limitations of what it can do. Women, you want the same thing that men want. Significance, security and belonging. But…nothing has hurt you more than your searching for significance, security and belonging.  We are on Movement 3 of the 7 movement Song of Songs. Somethings don’t change. The Queen bride is alone again and longing for something—she is not even sure what that ‘something is.’ Someone called it a nagging murmur of discontent. Do you know what that is? Sure you do. She thinks she knows, but when the King arrives, her reactionary behavior kicks in and she blows it. More shame, more sense of failure, more reactionary behavior.Support The Show: https://www.gospelrant.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

The pursuing lover groom finds his bride hiding behind a protective lattice work house. Her subconscious imagines that it is a character house. He sees it as a coffin. What is going on in her subconscious to build such a stultifying boundary? The winter rains. Dangerous, overwhelming, and they can pop up in a moment. She has the scars. Women, you are 2-3 times more likely to develop PTSD symptoms than men. Anxiety, sleep issues, weight gain, difficulty trusting others. The winter rains are real. Support The Show: https://www.gospelrant.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
