This past Sunday, a Southern Baptist Church service was interrupted by ANTIFA and anti-ICE protestors. Disgraced former CNN host Don Lemon recorded it and claimed it was his and the protesters' “First Amendment” right to interrupt a worship service. Obviously, he and the incredibly misguided protesters are totally wrong on that count. In fact, this was not a protest; this was a desecration.

The Sunday Message from Trinity Chapel with Truth to Ponder host, Rev. Bob Biermann

Today, more than ever, we are being pushed not to use our full mental capacity to discern what we see, think, and do. More often than not, we react to events rather than ponder and rationalize what we see. Today, Bob begins a series to help us get out of this trap.

Bob is still under the weather and may not be fully back to the microphone until late this week or even not until Monday. Keep him in your prayers. Jim Calhoun fills in and addresses some more tough topics.

Bob is still under the weather and may not be fully back to the microphone until Wednesday or possibly even Thursday. Keep him in your prayers. Jim Calhoun fills in, but be warned, you may not fully agree with what he has to say, but it is worth your time to listen and consider what he has to say. Later this week Bob will be sharing some important thoughts about the future of this program and what God has laid on his heart.

While many may not know this, Bob and his wife (along with his entire family) have been fighting a nasty respiratory illness for a couple of weeks. As a result, it has been difficult to produce radio programs and podcasts. Bob explains what is happening on this edition.

To people on the left, the most significant threats are MAGA, Donald Trump, stolen democracy, loss of abortion, and climate change. On the right, it is socialism, daycare center financial grifting, Islamic infiltration, transgenderism, and stolen elections. None of these is all that important when compared to the most significant threat the world has ever seen, and most will embrace it willingly.Now, do you believe in this ministry?

One of the hardest things to do today is to find the actual truth. Both sides of the political and corporate spectrum attempt to cloud terms, mislead, and keep people divided. Even the meaning of words and terms has been deconstructed.

For years, there has been a market for “bad news.” Starting about 25 years ago, there were increasing numbers of websites, email newsletters, and eventually podcasts (audio and then video) that fed an increasing appetite for the bad news of the day. For the most part, hope could only be found with a political solution. The COVID Pandemic put the bad news craze on steroids. Platforms like Rumble exploded with crazy and often inaccurate content. The “Merchants of Fear” had found a lucrative market. Today, Bob starts to unwind this cult of garbage and fraud.Now, do you believe in this ministry?

Sadly, much of the world is being led by the Pied Piper of technology. Not that technology is bad, but allowing technology to run your life is one of the greatest dangers we face.
