In this TruthTalks audio recording, Dad (Dr Christopher Peppler) and I change up the format a little and instead of having an overview of the post to open with we both dive headlong into talking about a couple of women in the Bible and what made them special.
It is a somewhat light-hearted take on this issue and I do hope you enjoy it! Listen now by clicking on the link below:
In this sermon, based on Acts 10:38, Dr Christopher Peppler, drawing on the gospels, talks about our dependence on the Holy Spirit and what that means. He shows us that:
As we learn to depend on the Holy Spirit we can grow both to be more like Jesus and to minister as He did.
We can experience both the person and the power of the Holy Spirit – as Jesus did.
And more
He also talks about HOW we respond to this truth… so give it a listen and do subscribe to the podcast on iTunes or whatever service you would like.

Dr. Christopher Peppler and I discuss women’s role in the church as it was, is, and should be.
Apart from really enjoying and gaining (in my opinion) much needed insight into my faith when I do these TruthTalks with Christopher Peppler, it can still feel disheartening when I think of how few people know about this podcast and therefore don’t gain what I do from them.
As I edit the audio I try to remind myself that if just one person gains Spiritually, or sees things in a different light, then our work hasn’t been in vain. Please note that you can now subscribe to the TruthTalks podcast directly from each post (just above the heading and top image) in a variety of ways and you will be notified when new TruthTalks are available (normally every second week). Oh, and how about sharing this with your friends.
I hope and pray that you will enjoy this weeks TruthTalk, which came out of THIS post, because I believe that it really helps clear up misconceptions about women’s role in the church of today.
Last week Dr Christopher Peppler (a.k.a “Daddy”) wrote THIS post about debunking myths about Christianity. In this audio episode he goes into some more detail and then I get to have a Question and Answer session with him where we end up discussing the topic, along with Jewish folk, and C.S. Lewis vs. Lewis Carroll.
In his post from last week, Dr Christopher Peppler wrote about dilemma’s facing church leaders and made suggestions on how to handle them.
In this TruthTalk he addresses this topic in more detail. After this I barge in with my usual volley of questions.
I try to focus on the more practical side of things in these question and answer sessions from the perspective of a church member as opposed to Dad’s position of being in leadership positions most of his life. I do hope you get something out of these and SUBSCRIBE, or simply leave a rating or comment on whatever you use to listen to your podcasts as this is the main way we can get this podcast out!

My name is Christopher Peppler and I was born in Cape Town, South Africa in 1947. While working in the financial sector I achieved a number of business qualifications from the Institute of Bankers, Damelin Management School, and The University of the Witwatersrand Business School. After over 20 years as a banker, I followed God’s calling and joined the ministry full time. After becoming a pastor of what is now a quite considerable church, I earned an undergraduate theological qualification from the Baptist Theological College of Southern Africa and post-graduate degrees from two United States institutions. I was also awarded the Doctor of Theology in Systematic Theology from the University of Zululand in 2000.
Four years before that I established the South African Theological Seminary (SATS), which today is represented in over 70 countries and has more than 2 500 active students enrolled with it. I presently play an role supervising Masters and Doctoral students.
I am a passionate champion of the Christocentric or Christ-centred Principle, an approach to biblical interpretation and theological construction that emphasises the centrality of Jesus
I have been happily married to Patricia since the age of 20, have two children, Lance and Karen, a daughter-in-law Tracey, and granddaughters Jessica and Kirsten. I have now retired from both church and seminary leadership and devote my time to writing, discipling, and the classical guitar.
