The Vine

Send us Fan Mail I'm excited to welcome a very special guest - my oldest son, Dan - on this episode of 'The VINE with Shawn McNeaney'. In this podcast, we explore a powerful message Dan recently shared on Remorse & Repentance. Together, we reflect on the lives of Judas & Peter - two disciples who responded very differently after their betrayal of Jesus Christ - and what thei...

Send us Fan Mail All you have to do is turn on the news and you can see the chaos happening in the world. We're seeing wars, famines, natural disasters, and growing division within the body of Christ at alarming rates. The enemy’s goal is simple: to steal, kill, and destroy. But Jesus has come to give us life, and life in abundance (John 10:10). In this first episode of 2026 of The VINE, the...

Send us Fan Mail When I look at some social media posts, watch some church services online & even listen to how Christians communicate, it leaves very little to the imagination as to why we see the body of Christ as powerless as it is in these last days. You may think that I have no love for the church because I keep picking on them & pointing out her faults. It’s the exact opposite, reall...

Send us Fan Mail It’s no mystery. The Scriptures clearly states that in the last days the church of Jesus Christ will suffer persecution. Heck, we don’t even need to be in the end times before the church experiences persecution & tribulation. 2 Tim. 3:12 states, “Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution” (KJV). Websters dictionary defines persecution as hostil...

Send us Fan Mail Holy Spirit, speaking through Paul, educates the church in regard to spiritual warfare in the book of Ephesians chapter 6 verses 10-18. Paul even tells us in 2 Cor. 2:11, “…for we are not ignorant of his (Satan’s) devices’. God told Isaiah that His people had gone into captivity because of lack of knowledge. God speaks through the prophet Hosea and stated, “My people are destroyed...

Send us Fan Mail Liberal Christianity is a term people use to identify themselves as a follower of Jesus Christ but approaches the Bible, doctrine, & Christian tradition with openness & flexibility with a progressive mindset. What has happened in today’s society is the church, namely because church leaders, have presented Christianity as a socially changing religion catering to an ever evo...

Send us Fan Mail I firmly believe that ‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. Meaning, I don’t believe in reinventing the wheel. If God has given a revelation of Scripture to someone else in the Body of Christ, then I will use that to support my position in a podcast. To that point, what I will be bringing forth in this 17th episode is from a dear friend of mine, a person who I consider a father-in-th...

Send us Fan Mail As some of you may know, part of the vision of this podcast is to take controversial subjects & put them in front of the mirror of Scripture to validate the extent of that truth, because God’s Word is indeed truth. Unfortunately, there are many divisive/controversial subjects that have been preached & taught from pulpits in today's church. Things taught from the pulpi...

Send us Fan Mail Faith is a spiritual principle. Christians are spiritual people living in natural bodies. If we apply ourselves to develop and live by faith, we will begin to see more and more of God’s promises manifest in our lives and we will fulfill in greater fashion the call He has on our lives. One such applicable biblical principle that is foundational to developing our faith is to express...

Send us Fan Mail It really doesn’t surprise me of the ignorance & deception in the Body of Christ. I mean, is there any sound doctrine out there? I’m being facetious of course. I know there is. I also know there are those that love God with all their heart & follow Him whole-heartedly. So I may be talking to the minority here, but the point remains…there has never been such a time as this...

Send us Fan Mail This podcast was done out of necessity. There is an attack today against the Word of God such as we’ve never seen in the history of the world. The righteous standard & holiness of God declared within the Holy Scriptures is being bombarded from every angle. The common ideology of social culturalism continuously stands against the authority of God and His Word. The proponents of...

Send us Fan Mail New Years Resolutions…I’m pretty sure we’ve all made them at some point in our lives. Even if we don’t label them as such. Admit it, you’ve always wanted to take advantage of a new year, a fresh start, another kick at the can, if you will, to accomplish specific goals that you’ve failed to follow through on in the previous year. Don’t misunderstand me, this an admirable motivation...

Send us Fan Mail It's one thing to hear & accept what the world states about their take on the person of Jesus Christ. It's a total other thing to hear & accept what church-goers state of their belief on who they think Jesus is. The definition of a Christian is this, Christ in you, the hope of glory! It's so mind blowing when you talk to different people within the church &a...

Send us Fan Mail In light of recent events in the Middle East I have decided to , once again, not continue with my series on Real Christianity, but instead focus attention to events happening in our world. The vision of the podcast is to place world events in the mirror of Scripture, the absolute truth, where we see ourselves in the prophetic landscape of time. I encourage you to have a Bible in h...

Send us Fan Mail I remember as a kid growing up in the 70’s and watching TV. There were two TV shows in particular that would never be allowed to air in this day & age, All In The Family & The Jeffersons. Little did I know that watching these 70’s Sitcoms I would adapt racist language which I would ignorantly use in my regular vocabulary. The lead characters in these TV shows was a white m...

Send us Fan Mail This revamped introductory episode explains the purpose of the podcast & gives a brief description of me, the podcaster. A message the Lord gave me which I believe is for the Body of Christ in general... Getting Things Done. Be blessed!

Send us Fan Mail I remember watching a commercial on TV back in 1981 from the Army and the main tag line was, "Be all that you can be..." Well in this episode I go into some detail on what the Bible tells us on how we can be our best selves! Be blessed!  Rev. Shawn McNeaney

Send us Fan Mail In this 6th episode I took a break from my series on Real Christianity. As led by the Spirit I share a message that I recently preached about a month ago but is not a live recording. I break down the state of our nation (applies to any nation for that matter), how we got here, where we are & where we need to go as Christians.  As promised, here is the link I have referred to:...

Send us Fan Mail Have you ever hungered for more of God? Have you desired to know the mysteries contained in God's Word? What about your calling? Do you want to discover God's ministry calling for your life? How about this...Have you been struggling with character flaws or sinful patterns in your life & you just can't seem to live the victorious life that Jesus promised? Believe...

Send us Fan Mail If there's one specific thing that brings division in the Body of Christ, it's the spiritual gift of speaking in tongues. Think about it for a minute. Why, within the church, the one single Body of Jesus Christ, do we have all of these denominations? Denominations have been created because this is Satan's way to cause division in the church. This was NEVER God'...

Send us Fan Mail When a person receives Jesus as their personal Lord & Saviour, he or she receives a measure of faith to receive Holy Spirit which is a seal upon the believers heart guaranteeing their inheritance into the kingdom of heaven! However, this experience is not the fulness/infilling of the Holy Spirit. In the last episode I discussed that God requires ALL Christians to be baptized/f...

Send us Fan Mail Jesus promises abundant life to all who call on His Name (John 10:10)! Yet, in this modern age I do not see this promise manifested in the Body of Christ nor in the lives of those who identify as Christian. Arguably the biggest reason is because they have ignored the ministry of the 3rd Person of the Trinity, Holy Spirit. In this podcast I establish, within the context of Scriptur...

Send us Fan Mail I have been doing podcasts sporadically over the last 2 yrs. I speak on subjects that Holy Spirit brings to my heart because only He knows the hearts of the listeners. This would be referred to what Scripture calls, "A word in season". This morning, while I was in prayer, the Lord quickened my attention to a series of teachings I listened to a number of years ago. You se...
