Thin Line Believers is a podcast and devotional by first responders, for first responders. We believe in every Word of the Bible and hope to offer encouragement to police, firefighters, paramedics and veterans.

Trials often occur for a reason, and as long as that reason is not the results of our own actions, it may just be a work the Lord is doing within us.

The similarities in traits are uncanny. www.thinlinebelievers.comInstagram and X: @thinlinebelievers contact@thinlinebelievers.com
The Bible has a lot to say about marriage and divorce. It is a spiritual representation of the church's relationship with Christ. If that's the case, why is there so much divorce even within the church? How can we avoid divorce? What does the Bible say about those who have already been through a divorce (or two)? Pastor Rory answers these questions and more from a Biblical perspective. www.thinlinebelievers.com Instagram and Facebook: @thinlinebelievers email: adam@thinlinebelievers.com michael@thinlinebelievers.com

The enemy is slowly working his way into our country, our schools and even the Church. We have to understand his tactics and push back the darkness.
Adam listens to Michael sharing his pastorly wisdom
David was chosen to be king of Israel after Saul had disobeyed the Lord. Jesse's eldest sons, though they appeared kingly, were not chosen by God. Why? God told Samuel, "Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart (see 1 Samuel 16:7). Ultimately David was chosen as the next king of Israel. What about David's heart made him the Lord's choice for the throne?

Does the Lord delay His return? As Peter indicated, this is a common theme in our day. Just as people mocked Noah before the Flood, so people now mock Christians who await the rapture of the church. Adam and Mike talk about a passage from 2 Peter in light of current events. www.thinlinebelievers.com Instagram: @Thin Line Believers
The biggest necessity in the face of depression and anxiety is hope. Without hope we are just treading water in shark infested waters with no land in sight. Adam talks about a recent experience he had and why he believes the missing ingredient was hope. Buy Adam's shirt and more like it at www.thinlinebelievers.com

Fathers are a necessity to raising up the next generation properly.

How can a parent who is also a police officer or firefighter be most effective in raising their kids? That's the question Michael and Adam tackle in this episode of Thin Line Believers Podcast.

Recently an opinion piece was published in the NY Times expressing the opinion that God was brutal. It even compared God to Putin's war on Ukraine. Here's my opinion as a believer.
Good Friday was rough for the disciples. Saturday was dark and depressing. What they didn't know is Sunday was going to bring new life! The same goes for us. Times are dark right now, but Jesus is coming back soon! Shirt is available at www.thinlinebelievers.com Instagram @thinlinebelievers

To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven: A time to be born, And a time to die; A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted; A time to kill, And a time to heal; A time to break down, And a time to build up; A time to weep, And a time to laugh; A time to mourn, And a time to dance; -Ecclesiastes 3:1-4 This passage of Scripture framed the conversation with Mike and Adam this week.
There is a great deception being pushed in the world today. Everything from the plandemic to the war in Ukraine, the media has an agenda that is becoming more and more obvious. As first responders, we need to know the truth before we ever set foot into the world, or we'll be susceptible to any lie that comes our way. The best way to identify a counterfeit is to be so familiar with the authentic that any fake will be easily distinguished. In Matthew 24, the first thing Jesus said to the disciples regarding end times was "Be sure you are not deceived". It seems that is one of the main signs we are to be aware of, and it's happening all around. www.thinlinebelievers.com thinlinebelievers@gmail.com Instagram: @thinlinebelievers

In Revelation 6 we are introduced to what we now call the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. With them come all sorts of horrors, such as hyperinflation, plagues, famines, war and more. With what is currently happening on the world scene, it appears to us these horses are saddled and ready to ride. It's just a matter of time. Only God knows the day and the hour as to when these things will kick off. We need to know what is going on as it concerns Bible prophecy. Why? Because it's in the Bible. Adam and Michael discuss these four horsemen in light of what we are seeing. Moreso, they offer some hope for the Believer in these days.

He still enjoys training up peers in Critical Incident Stress Management.
What characteristics do the modern Christian man portray? Is he harmless and straight laced? Some of the most dangerous men throughout our history have been Christian men. Weakness is not to be confused with meekness. The modern Christian man needs to be prepared to stand for what is right, even if it means getting our hands dirty. Enjoy this latest podcast with Mike and Adam.
Sometimes anxiety will manifest itself due to a lack of faith. Michael and Adam discuss this topic in light of the recorded healings Jesus performed in Matthew, and the emphasis He placed on faith. In one case, Jesus "marveled" at a man's faith. In another case, the disciples "marveled" at Jesus's calming of a storm, due to their lack of faith. If you struggle with anxiety, we feel you and we can relate. This topic of discussion was as much for you as it was for us.
Michael and Adam talk about several current events and what it means in light of Bible prophecy. The world is being prepared for what the Bible tells us will take place in the future. Are you ready? Is your spiritual house in order? www.thinlinebelievers.com
