The Postscript Show

Most young disciples begin in ministry with zeal. They're grateful for the opportunity, excited to serve, and eager to prove their faithfulness. They're willing to take smaller ministry assignments, do the unnoticed work, and pour themselves into whatever field God has given them. But eventually, ministry becomes familiar. The work gets repetitive. Progress can be painfully slow, people can be dif...

In this episode of the Ps+ Pastor Chris Allred wraps up this series on the call to ministry with a conversation about what confirmation looks like. 

Confession is one of those Christian practices that many believers struggle to understand. We know 1 John 1:9: “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins.” But James 5:16 goes further: “Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed.” So why is confession still necessary if our sins have already been forgiven through Jesus Christ? W...

Motherhood is often described as one of life’s greatest joys—and it is. But for many women, it can also become one of life’s darkest and most disorienting seasons. Exhaustion, isolation, hormonal changes, overwhelming responsibility, and the quiet fear that “I’m not the mother I’m supposed to be” can converge into something much deeper than ordinary discouragement. For some, that darkness has a na...

In this episode of the Ps+ Pastor Chris Allred walks through the different stages of spiritual growth—and how they relate to our involvement in the call of ministry. 

The Book of Judges is one of the most sobering leadership books in the entire Bible. It tells the story of a people who had been given a clear mission, a rich spiritual inheritance, and every reason to move forward in faith. Yet generation after generation drifted. Compromise led to spiritual weakness, spiritual weakness led to oppression, and God raised up leaders to set things right. But the jud...

In this episode of the Ps+ Pastor Chris Allred leads a discussion about the important role a worshipful heart plays in a life of ministry leadership.

In Episode 282 of The Postscript Show, Brandon Briscoe sits down with Pastor Troy Stogsdill to discuss the biblical theology of prayer and to preview this year's Certainty Conference: The Theology of Prayer . What actually happens when we pray? Does prayer change things? What does it mean to...

While much of the Western church experiences Christianity with relative freedom and security, millions of believers live in places where identifying with Christ can cost them their homes, their families, their livelihoods, and even their lives. Few places illustrate that reality more tragically than Nigeria. For years, Christians throughout Nigeria—particularly in the northern and central regions...

From a KJV, Bible-believing perspective, this co...

For most Christians, military service and pastoral ministry seem like two very different worlds. One is associated with conflict, discipline, and national defense; the other with discipleship, biblical counseling, and the care of souls. Yet for a military chaplain, those worlds meet every single day. In this episode of The Postscript Show, Brandon Briscoe sits down with Lt. Joshua Keatts, Command...

Did the Gospel of Mark originally end at Mark 16:8, or do Mark 16:9–20 belong in Scripture? For nearly two centuries, modern textual critics have questioned the authenticity of the final twelve verses of Mark, leading many modern Bible translations to bracket the passage or include editorial notes suggesting it may not have been part of the original text. In this episode, Brandon Briscoe is joined...

Conflict is everywhere. Nations wage war against nations. Churches divide, families fracture, friendships dissolve, and even within the human heart there is pride, fear, and bitterness. Scripture reveals that conflict is not merely psychological or circumstantial—it is spiritual. From Satan's rebellion in heaven to the fall of Adam and Eve in the garden, the story of humanity has been marked by di...

In this new Ps+ series, we join Pastor Chris Allred as he takes us through a personal, practical set of episodes focused on development in the area of ministry leadership. 

When Christians think of missionary history, the names most often remembered are the bold pioneers, famous martyrs, and larger-than-life evangelists. Yet some of Christ's most influential servants lived lives marked not by public acclaim but by quiet, steadfast faithfulness.
