Naked But Not Ashamed

Touch - Episode 21

revkennblanchard@comcast.net — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 00:56:00 GMT

I got a manicure and pedicure today (Fathers Day) and while getting pampered thought about the importance of touch.

This show is to remind the married folks not to forsake one another. Touch more, fuss less.

And I uploaded this to let you know that the show is still alive. Though I am focusing on my new job as pastor of a church, the show will still come just maybe not as often as you may like. Unless I get a whole mess of folks that start listening then I'll know its worth the time to share.

this is another ministry for me, to share what works and what doesn't.

"How To Get Out of a Bad Mood" Episode #20

nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com — Wed, 14 May 2008 00:32:00 GMT

The rain, gas prices, the sickness in my family and the economy reminded me that I may not be the only one a little down. Here is a reminder how to get out of your funk. Plus a little joke about a robot lie detector. Scripture refs used on the show are below:

Romans 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and
acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Proverbs 23:7
For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to
thee; but his heart is not with thee.

Haggai 1:5
Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.

Phil 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are
honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if
there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

LIE DETECTOR!

John was a salesman's delight when it came to any kind of unusual
gimmick. His wife Marsha had long ago given up trying to get him to
change. One day John came home with another one of his unusual
purchases. It was a robot that John claimed was actually a lie detector.

It was about 5:30 that afternoon when Tommy, their 11 year old son,
returned home from school.

Tommy was over 2 hours late.

"Where have you been? Why are you over 2 hours late getting home?"
asked John. "Several of us went to the library to work on an extra
credit project," said Tommy. The robot then walked around the table
and slapped Tommy, knocking him completely out of his chair.
"Son," said John, "this robot is a lie detector, now tell us where you
really were after school."

"We went to Bobby's house and watched a movie." said Tommy.
"What did you watch?" asked Marsha.
"The Ten Commandments." answered Tommy.

The robot went around to Tommy and once again slapped him, knocking
him off his chair once more. With his lip quivering, Tommy got up, sat down and said, "I am sorry I lied. We really watched a tape called Sex Queen."

"I am ashamed of you son," said John. "When I was your age, I never lied to my parents."

The robot then walked around to John and delivered a whack that nearly
knocked him out of his chair.

Marsha doubled over in laughter, almost in tears and said, "Boy, did you ever ask for that one! You can't be too mad with Tommy. After all, he is your son!"

With that the robot immediately walked around to Marsha and knocked
her out of her chair.

revkennblanchard@comcast.net — Mon, 3 Mar 2008 17:58:00 GMT

Sitting here recovering from the flu and all I could think about is friends of mine that are separating and contemplating divorce. You can do better by honoring your marriage vows. Not popular advice but I think real.

Episode- 13 Trouble and The Truth

nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 15:43:00 GMT

This life isn't a game. Everybody is stressing. Time to take inventory of your life and see if you are the cause of your own problems and stop. We talk about the truth. John 14:6

Time to stop lying to ourselves, stop being disobedient, and forgive. We all have a cross to bear and no matter how religious you are, you will have some troubles in this life.

You are a work in progress. Don't think or get caught up believing that you have to have it all together just because you follow Christ.

Truth is that love can fix it.

A few Scriptures quoted that you should check out this week:
John 14:1-3
Phil 1:6
1 JOhn 3:2-3
Matthew 10:38

Episode # 12 - Why We Exist

nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com — Mon, 4 Feb 2008 03:59:00 GMT

You were divinely inspired, more important than you know and this show is a quick reminder of that fact. I was supposed to continue with Spiritual Warfare or even elaborate on Porn and its dangers but I was moved spiritually to pray for you and encourage you instead. I hope you don't mind and can understand the message. It seeks to edify. Min. Richard Smallwood provides the music at the end of the show to encourage your spirit.

Proverbs 19:12
2 Tim 1:9

Episode # 11 - Spiritual Warfare Part 1

nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 20:12:00 GMT

Before we get into the dangers of pornography, this is an intro about the dangers Christians face on the internet, in life, against the demons of the flesh, namely lust.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.-- Ephesians 6:12

Scriptures referenced:
Acts 2:38
Acts 3:19
Matthew 27:4
Psalm 32:1,2
Psalm 51:1-14
1 Tim 1:15
Luke 7:43
Ephesian 6:12

Don't surrender, don't quit.

Episode 10 - Is Masturbation a Sin?

nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 00:01:00 GMT

I know this is going to rock some folks mind but this is an honest dialog about a taboo subject. A listener asked me, so I made a show out of my response. He may not have been the only person interested in the subject. I'll know by how many listen to this and the comments that follow. It obtains no profanity or obscenities but it is mature subject matter. Parental discretion is advised.

Scriptures quoted or mentioned in Show #10:
Genesis 38:8-10
Deuteronomy 23:10
Psalm 119:18
1 Corinthians 6:9

Don't forget to leave a comment on the iTunes page for me.

9 - Encouragement

Sat, 12 Jan 2008 01:51:00 GMT

This is the conclusion of a short series on Marriage but not the end of the show. I encourage you to TRY and after you fail, TRY AGAIN, love never fails. We aren't as easy to fix as everything else in the world so you have to persist and take your lumps if you messed up. I also provide a prayer for you at the end. I delayed the section on masturbation till show #10 which will start off the double digits with a BANG.

Thanks for listening, please leave some comments on the iTunes page for me or where ever you found this to help the ratings. Hang in there...

God bless.

Rev. Kenn

8- The Perfect Wife

revkennblanchard@comcast.net — Sun, 6 Jan 2008 19:39:00 GMT

What is a "perfect wife"? Rev. Kenn talks about his conversations with ten married men, or the summation of those results in this short episode of Naked But Not Ashamed. Thanks for the love, and for listening. Check out the new MySpace page if you want to take a gander at ol' boy. Thanks so much for being there.

Episode 7 - SEX

nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com — Wed, 26 Dec 2007 03:02:00 GMT

Sex sells. One of the most controversial and misunderstood areas of our lives is sex. We love it, but don't know how it relates in our Christian walk. This is just the tip of a very large iceberg. Listen as I stimulate some thoughts about how intimacy, communication and trust play a crucial role in making your love life real. This is a monologue so the most important part of this is to make it personal. This is only the beginning. My goal is to give you the tools to be king stud-ly of your castle, make momma happy, and your family whole as God intended it to be. I'll take your questions at nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com.

Scriptures quoted:

Hebrews 13:4
Galations 5:19
Proverbs 5:18-19

Show 6- Trust

nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 00:00:00 GMT

Trust- often the deal maker and heart breaker in a relationship.

Episode 5 Communicating for Intimacy

nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 03:45:00 GMT

Communication is a big word and a major reason so many homes are not happy. It's one of the three reasons for marital problems. Intimacy is defined here and I share a quick illustration about the differences between the sexes.

Episode 4 - Marriage

nakedbutnotashamed@gmail.com — Sun, 2 Dec 2007 19:26:00 GMT

There is an old joke that says that "Marriage isn't a word, it's a
sentence." The show provides some advice from a survivor of his own
stupidity to Christian men to take back what the devil is trying to
steal from you. Marriage is not for the wimpy. Pastors, ministers,
deacons, elders, trustees, and pew sitters need to heed the Word of
God, honor their marriages or their prayers will be less effective.

This starts the holiday season, remember to keep the Christ in Christmas. Until next week...

Genesis 2:25
Hebrews 13:4
Ecclesians 4:9-12
1 Peter 3:7

Show 3 - "Oh Daddy"

Sun, 25 Nov 2007 22:42:00 GMT

This is episode #3. Thanks for listening. This week covers some thoughts about fatherhood, when it first happens, how we as men are often unprepared and freak out a little. How we should act after we get ourselves together and the importance of being a "daddy" versus just a "father".
Psalm 51. A fathers' prayer for forgiveness from King David.

Show 2 - Man Up

Tue, 20 Nov 2007 02:07:00 GMT

This show deals with the man as the leader. But if you want to be a leader in your house you have to be a man of integrity and truth. The show is short but I hope you enjoy it. please send comments to revkennblanchard@comcast.net or call me on SKYPE at 301.637.5848.

Sincerely,

Rev Kenn Blanchard

First Episode

Sun, 11 Nov 2007 23:48:00 GMT

This is my first installment of NBNA. It will contain intimate thoughts of marriage, love, manhood, sex, leadership and Godly wisdom from a survivor.

The title comes from Genesis 2:25. "and they were both naked, the man and his wife and were not ashamed." I working to get back to that state. Freedom, love, and the pursuit of happiness.

Not sure how long or how successful this podcast is going to be. Time will tell. The first ten will be coming from a booklet I wrote by the same title. It's available if you're interested for $5.
