Biblical literacy is in decline—and the consequences are showing. In this episode, I unpack alarming statistics about Bible reading in America and explain why so many Christians struggle to recognize false teaching. We examine the growing influence of Kathryn Krick and discuss how emotional experiences can never replace sound biblical doctrine. I also answer a listener's question about the Scofield Study Bible, compare popular Bible translations by reading level, and share practical advice for choosing a translation you'll actually read and understand. This episode will challenge you to move beyond devotionals and secondary sources and become a student of God's Word. The goal isn't simply to read the Bible more—it's to know God more deeply, discern truth from error, and become a faithful disciple who can help others do the same.

Dr. Robert Joustra joins The Biblical Mind Podcast to explore one of the most neglected questions in Christian ethics: What does the Bible have to say about international politics? Beginning with difficult questions like the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Joustra argues that Christians need more than political pragmatism—they need a distinctly biblical framework for thinking about war, diplomacy, justice, nationalism, and global responsibility.Drawing from the theological tradition of Augustine, Calvin, and Abraham Kuyper, Joustra explains how concepts like just war theory, ordered loves, sphere sovereignty, and the common good help Christians navigate today's geopolitical challenges. The conversation examines whether Scripture speaks to foreign policy, how the prophets shape our understanding of nations, and why political power must always remain penultimate to the kingship of Christ.The discussion also engages contemporary debates surrounding nationalism, empire, immigration, religious identity, and the American political experiment, offering a thoughtful Christian response to the complexities of modern international relations.Whether you're interested in biblical theology, political philosophy, Christian ethics, or global affairs, this episode provides a rich introduction to thinking faithfully about the nations, justice, and the role of Christians in an increasingly interconnected world.

The "war-crime" of Amaziah King of Judah re: mistreating the Edomite POWs

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend theologian, Bible scholar, and former Protestant pastor Dr. John Bergsma to dig into one of the most nefarious misconceptions about the Catholic Church versus Protestantism and, cordially, share some of his shocking conclusions. Is Protestantism really more "Biblical" than Catholicism? Dr. Bergsma says, no. On topics of how the Church is organized, what worship looks like, what Jesus taught, how authority is passed on, and how decisions and interpretations of Scripture are made Dr. Bergsma shows, over and over again, that the Catholic Church is more closely aligned to Scripture than Protestantism at its very core.This is a truly fantastic episode!For more from Dr. Bergsma visit his website.

In this Bible Story, we learn about the rule of Amaziah. He defeats a great threat, but grows arrogant and pompous. The Lord humbles Amaziah in the battle against Israel, and dies in exile. This story is inspired by 2 Chronicles 25 & 2 Kings 14:1-22. Go to https://www.BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is 2 Chronicles 25:18 from the King James Version.Episode 145: The people of God needed a strong, courageous, godly King, and Uzziah provided that hope for the people. The young man was sixteen when he sat on the throne, and he sought God for wisdom just like Solomon did. He leaned on this wisdom of his elders and held the word of the prophet close. He sought God, fought battles against the Philistines, and gained the respect of the nations around him. However, as the stories about him grew, so did his ego. And in his arrogance, he walked into the temple of God without a priest and began to burn incense, as if he were a priest, beginning his downfall.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

When you hear the word submission, what comes to mind? For a lot of people, it's control. Silence. Inequality. A woman losing her voice. But what if that's not what the Bible is describing at all? In this episode, we sit down with three Christian women who have lived out biblical submission in marriage and ask the questions people are actually wrestling with.No clichés or stereotypes, just an honest conversation about what Scripture teaches and what it looks like in real life.We talk about why submission has become one of the most misunderstood ideas in Christianity and why God's design is far more beautiful than most people realize.We'll talk about:- What biblical submission actually is and what it isn't- Why Ephesians 5 begins with “submit to one another”- Whether submission means a woman loses her voice or identity- What submission looks like during real disagreements- How to respond when your husband isn't leading well- Where the line is between honoring your husband and saying “no”- Whether the trad wife movement is biblical or just an aesthetic- What submission looks like when the wife earns more, leads more, or is more spiritually mature- How to know if a man is actually worthy of your trust before marriage- Whether submission has any place in dating and engagement- Why God's design for marriage is meant to help both husband and wife flourishThis isn't a conversation about making women smaller. It's about understanding God's design well enough to discover the freedom that's actually inside it.Whether you're married, dating, engaged, or simply trying to understand what the Bible teaches, we hope this conversation brings clarity to one of the most debated topics in Christian relationships.Let's talk about it

The Biblical Pastor: God's Shepherd vs. the Modern Hireling: Foundational Issues 6 | KIB 540 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description Welcome to Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Episode 540 with Dr. Michael Lake and Mary Lou Lake. What does Scripture actually teach about the office of the pastor? In today's church culture, many believers have inherited traditions that differ greatly from the biblical model of shepherding. In this message, Dr. Michael Lake continues the Fivefold Ministry series by examining the character, responsibilities, and calling of the biblical pastor through the lens of both the Old and New Testaments. Drawing from the teachings of Jesus, the Apostle Paul, Peter, and the biblical imagery of the Good Shepherd, this episode explains why pastors are called to protect, feed, disciple, and care for God's people—not build personal platforms or entertainment-driven ministries. Mary Lou also shares a timely exhortation concerning America's spiritual condition, the necessity of the fear of the Lord, and why she believes God is preparing His people for a great deliverance from modern Babylonian bondage. If you desire a deeper understanding of biblical leadership, spiritual maturity, and Christ-centered discipleship, this teaching will challenge and encourage you. In this episode, you'll discover: The biblical definition of a pastor The difference between a shepherd and a hireling Why pastors must protect the flock from deception The biblical qualifications for pastoral ministry Why pastors must become students of God's Word The importance of discipleship over entertainment How the Fivefold Ministry works together The responsibility of pastors to pray, teach, restore, and equip believers Why biblical shepherds are desperately needed in the last days Encouragement for faithful pastors serving quietly and sacrificially

My first reaction: "No way." Then, "It's true...and it's awful." A man asleep in the middle of the night. Suddenly, what has been determined to be an approximately 60-foot sinkhole opens up beneath the house and literally sucks the man, the bed, and the bedroom in with it. The home has since been demolished, and the next door neighbors were given 30 minutes to grab what they could and evacuate. There was even speculation that the owners of the other two homes would never return. Sinkholes seem to be a lot more common than we realize. I mean, certain soil-rock-and-moisture combinations apparently can erode over time and then suddenly collapse beneath you. There's ground that looks like it's safe to build on, but one day it just caves in under you. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Building on Ground That's Going Down." There's a feeling too many of us know all too well. "Hey, I thought this would support me. It just collapsed." Beginning in the fall of 2008, so many friends of mine saw their financial security suddenly disappear into a sinkhole as the ground just shifted overnight. A Wall Street veteran told me, "You know, if you had asked any of us Christian guys here what we were trusting in, we would have said, 'Well, we're trusting In the Lord, of course.' Until we suddenly lost what we were really trusting in." As they say on the news, sinkholes are all over the place. The person who once said, "Til death do us part" is suddenly gone. The children you lived for left the nest empty. The church or organization you did so much for let you down. The company you served for so long doesn't need you anymore. The friends you gave so much for moved on without you. The plans you made vanished with one visit to a doctor's office. The people you lived to please turned their backs on you. So many sinkholes! Ground you build on that you can't depend on. Yesterday's dream; now today's nightmare. The family who lost their home and their loved one in that sinkhole did find one consolation – the family Bible the demolition crew managed to retrieve. One family member stood in front of the rubble, just hugging that Bible for all she was worth. Well, I'll tell you, that's the only ground I know that will never cave in beneath you. It's what Martin Luther was counting on when he stood against the mightiest religious forces of his day and insisted knowing God was by faith alone. As all other ground around him was collapsing, he stood firm on a Biblical bedrock that is our word for today from the Word of God. Listen, "Your Word, O Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens" (Psalm 119:89). Firm in the heavens. Truth you can stake your life on; a foundation that can never be shaken. It's where Paul told Timothy to plant his feet when it seems as if everyone - including God's people - are adrift. "But as for you," he said, "continue in what you have learned...you have known the Holy Scriptures...All Scripture is God-breathed" (2 Timothy 3:14-16). Sometimes, it means standing with a holy defiance of the culture, the crowd, the consensus, both feet firmly planted on God's Word. "God has spoken. That settles it." Jesus told about two men - one whose house "collapsed" when the torrent came, and one whose house "could not be shaken." The first one, he says, built on "ground without a foundation." The other "dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock." He said the sinkable man "hears My words and does not put them into practice." The unsinkable man, he said, "hears My words and puts them into practice" (Luke 6:47-49). So sitting in church just soaking up Christian beliefs is not enough to sustain you when your world's collapsing. Compartmentalized faith is collapsible faith. You have to do God's Word, not just know God's Word. King David posed this question for a sinkhole moment: "When the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do?" That's a good question. Here's the answer: "The Lord is in His holy temple; the Lord is on His heavenly throne" (Psalm 11:3-4). When your world caves in, God's Throne hasn't moved. His Word is unchanged, and your God still reigns.

Did Daniel's famous 70th Week prophecy already find its fulfillment, or is there still a future seven-year tribulation to come? In this episode, we examine Daniel 9:24–27, one of the most debated passages in all of biblical prophecy. Rather than placing a 2,000-year gap between the 69th and 70th weeks, this study explores how Daniel's prophecy points to the coming of the Messiah, His atoning work, the end of the old covenant temple system, and the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70.By examining the context of Daniel 9 alongside Matthew 24, Luke 21, and the broader biblical storyline, we ask whether the 70th Week has already been fulfilled—and why this question has shaped Christian eschatology for generations.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

Welcome back to another episode of NDS Chronicles, where David Lee Corbo (The Raven), TopLobsta, and Matt Hepner read and react to real paranormal testimonies submitted by listeners. This episode explores strange encounters, supernatural experiences, cryptid reports, spiritual warfare, and the Biblical worldview behind the unexplained.From eerie stories that begin like Bigfoot encounters to discussions about the mysterious "hitchhiker effect," UFOs, demons, witchcraft, and spiritual deception, the hosts examine these reports through the lens of Scripture rather than popular paranormal culture. They also discuss how supernatural encounters can sometimes escalate into broader spiritual experiences, drawing connections between cryptid sightings, poltergeist activity, and Biblical discernment.The conversation expands into topics including the modern UFO phenomenon, MKUltra, telepathy, Hollywood's portrayal of aliens, and why the Bible remains the ultimate framework for understanding supernatural events. Rather than accepting paranormal claims at face value, the hosts compare testimony against Biblical teaching and encourage Christians to exercise wisdom and discernment.The episode also includes updates on Brohemian Grove, upcoming live events, the Nephilim Death Squad community, listener submissions, and future guests from the paranormal and Christian research communities.If you enjoy conversations about:Paranormal testimoniesUFOs and alien encountersBigfoot and cryptidsDemonic deceptionSpiritual warfareBiblical prophecyChristian apologeticsConspiracy research through a Biblical lens...then this episode is for you.Have you experienced something supernatural?

In this Bible Story, we meet the prophet Jonah, who refuses to obey God's calling because of his prejudice against Nineveh. However, God uses Jonah's life as a lesson. A lesson in caring about the lost. A lesson about humility and responding to the voice of God. A lesson on what truly matters. This story is inspired by Jonah 3-4.

His father was assassinated by his servants yet Amaziah did not hold their children responsible for his father's death, only them. One day in preparation for a battle with Sier, Amaziah hired one hundred thousand soldiers from Israel to fight with him. But a man of God came to Amaziah telling him to send the men home. However, those men of Israel were wicked and burned the cities of Judah in repayment for being sent home. Amaziah forsook God because of this and would hear no more words from God.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

What if the greatest shift you could make in your financial life didn't begin with a new budget, a better investment strategy, or a higher income—but with surrender? We don't often think of surrender as a financial word, but it lies at the heart of biblical stewardship. When we embrace the life-changing truth that God owns everything, it transforms how we live, give, plan, and manage the resources He has entrusted to us. The First Question Scripture Asks When we think about money, we tend to ask familiar questions: How much do I have? How much will I need? Am I making progress? Am I doing better or worse than others? Those questions may be important, but they are not where Scripture begins. From the opening pages of the Bible, God is revealed as the Creator and owner of everything. Before humanity ever cultivated a garden or named a creature, God formed, filled, and ruled creation. Psalm 24:1 declares: “The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein.” Simply put, God is the owner, and we are His stewards. For many Christians, that is a familiar idea. But familiarity does not always lead to surrender. We may affirm that God owns the universe while living as though we built our lives entirely through our own effort. We say, “I worked for this,” or, “I earned this.” And while diligent work matters, Scripture reminds us that even our ability to produce wealth comes from God. Deuteronomy 8:18 says: “You shall remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth.” Our talents, opportunities, health, time, and ability to work are all gifts from the Lord. Owners or Stewards? Jesus develops this idea in the parable of the talents in Matthew 25. A master entrusts resources to three servants before leaving on a journey. Two servants put what they received to work, while the third buries his portion out of fear. When the master returns, he commends the first two servants—not merely because they produced impressive results, but because they were faithful. That distinction matters. The world often defines success by outcomes: how much we earn, accumulate, grow, or achieve. God calls us to something deeper—faithfulness with whatever He has placed in our hands. If God owns everything, then we are not owners in the ultimate sense. We are managers. The New Testament word commonly translated as “steward” is oikonomos, meaning “household manager.” A steward manages resources he did not create, for purposes he did not determine, under the authority of the master he serves. At first, that may sound limiting. In reality, it is profoundly freeing. As financial teacher Ron Blue has often said, “If God owns it all, you can't lose anything.” Ownership carries an enormous burden. The owner must ultimately provide, protect, and control. But if God is the owner, then we do not have to carry those responsibilities alone. Stewardship carries responsibility, but it also rests on trust. When Financial Choices Become Worship When we truly embrace stewardship, ordinary financial decisions become opportunities to worship God. Budgeting becomes more than organizing income and expenses. It becomes a way of aligning our desires with God's priorities. Giving becomes a response to the generosity we have already received from Him. Saving becomes wise preparation rather than fearful hoarding. Planning becomes an act of obedience rather than an attempt to control every possible outcome. Investing becomes a way to cultivate and multiply what belongs to the Lord, not a strategy for securing complete independence from Him. The Puritan pastor Thomas Watson once wrote, “What we keep, we may lose. What we give to God is kept forever.” That statement reminds us that earthly ownership is temporary, but faithful stewardship has eternal significance. The apostle Paul writes in 1 Timothy 6:7: “For we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world.” That reality is not meant to discourage us. It is meant to liberate us. When we stop clutching what we cannot keep, we become free to invest our lives in what can never be lost. Faithfulness Begins With Surrender If God owns everything, what does He expect from us? Jesus gives us a clear answer in Luke 16:10: “One who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much.” Faithfulness is not determined by the size of our income, investment portfolio, home, or charitable gifts. It is about how we respond to whatever God has entrusted to us. Stewardship is not reserved for the wealthy. It applies to every person in every financial season. A person living paycheck to paycheck can be faithful. A retiree managing decades of savings can be faithful. A young adult earning their first salary can be faithful. A business owner, parent, student, or widow can all honor God through the resources in their care. Faithfulness is not primarily about how much we have. It is about whether we have surrendered what we have to God. And surrender always begins in the heart. The Humility and Hope of Stewardship When we accept that God owns it all, we receive two things the world cannot offer: humility and hope. We gain humility because we stop viewing our accomplishments as entirely self-made. We recognize God as the source of our abilities, opportunities, and provision. We gain hope because we realize that we are not carrying the burden of provision alone. God equips. God guides. God provides. That does not mean we stop working, planning, or making wise decisions. Biblical stewardship requires diligence. But it allows us to work faithfully without treating every result as though it depends entirely on us. So where might God be inviting you to shift from an owner's mindset to a steward's heart? Perhaps it is in your giving, planning, saving, or lifestyle. Perhaps it is in the quiet assumption that your security depends more on markets, income, or possessions than on the God who “owns the cattle on a thousand hills” (Psalm 50:10). Stewardship is not about God trying to get something from you. It is about God doing something within you. It reorders the heart so that money occupies its proper place—not as a master, but as a tool entrusted to us for God's purposes and glory.

Imagine being granted an audience with a king. As you enter the throne room, you would not begin by rushing through your list of requests—you would first acknowledge his majesty. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reflects on the opening words of the Lord's Prayer: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.” To hallow God's name means to set it apart as holy. God is sovereign, omniscient, righteous, just, merciful, faithful, compassionate, and true. He is the Creator of the universe and the King of kings. Yet through faith in Jesus Christ, this holy God becomes our heavenly Father, and we are invited to come before Him in prayer. Dr. Youssef reminds us that the more we know God's character, the deeper our fellowship with Him becomes. Beginning prayer with reverence reorients our hearts, shifting our focus from our needs and desires to the greatness, holiness, and goodness of God. Jesus did not give the Lord's Prayer as a lifeless ritual, but as a guide for fellowship with the Father. As children of God, we have free access to the throne room of the King—and there is no greater honor than calling Him “Our Father.” Join me in prayer.  Precious Lord, thank You for inviting me into Your presence. I praise You as King of kings and Lord of lords and also thank You for being my Father. There is no one like You. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

In JT's Mix Tape #89, JT is joined by Brian of Demon Erasers and Aaron of Tune Thy Heart to examine the growing problem of “conspiracy slop.” The conversation begins with CERN and the latest Mandela Effect claims before moving into celebrity alien videos, demonic imagery in children's entertainment, deceptive social-media advertising and the spiritual cost of sacrificing truth for influence. The guys also confront sensational stories spreading through Christian deliverance and supernatural podcasts. Are these testimonies leading people toward Jesus—or creating fear, pride and dependence upon self-appointed deliverance ministers? Finally, the discussion turns to theories connecting America with Egypt, ancient Israel and the biblical Promised Land. Could America contain remnants of the Old World, or are creators forcing biblical geography to fit viral narratives?In this episode:CERN and the newest Mandela Effect claimsThe difference between being wrong and knowingly lyingWhy false information spreads so quicklyJames Franco's alleged “alien” videosThe demonic symbolism surrounding the MinionsHow social media rewards deceptionChristian deliverance ministries and spiritual fearKatie Souza's supernatural claimsChrist's authority over demonsKathie Lee Gifford's appearance on Blurry CreaturesThe corporatization of independent podcastsWas ancient America connected to biblical Israel?Utah, Judah, the Red Sea and Mount NeboEvidence surrounding Mount Sinai and Sodom and GomorrahHow to explore mysteries without abandoning discernmentThe goal isn't to mock everyone who gets something wrong.

Episode 225:Last time my guest Paul Fried and I discussed Biblical Allusion in Shakespeare with particular reference to Hamlet. This is the second part of our conversation, so please do make sure you have listened to part one before continuing here, things will make a lot more sense if you do. I first came across Paul's Blog, Hamlet's Bible, when I was researching my episodes on King Lear and I was very pleased to find that not only was it useful for those episodes but was a series of very interesting posts relating to Biblical allusion in Shakespeare, so, of course, I asked Paul, if he would like to come onto the podcast to share some of his insights into this subject. Paul is a retired college lecturer who has devoted years of study to Shakespeare and the bible and his blog, now in it's tenth year, has become his way of sharing his research prior to what he hopes will be a published volume on Biblical allusion in Hamlet. He has also contributed several papers to Shakespeare conferences, most recently at the Shakespeare Association of America conference held in Denver in April 2026.I spoke to Paul from his home in Minnesota over a zoom call.Link to Paul's blog ‘Hamlet's Bible': https://pauladrianfried.blogspot.com/Link to ‘Hamlet's Bible' on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hamletsbible/Link to Paul's account on ‘X': https://x.com/padrianfriedSupport the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetpYou can find an advertisement free version of the latest podcast episodes by joining on Patreon at the lowest paid tier level – that's for just £1 per month.

How should Christians order their loves in a world that tells us every relationship and every responsibility deserves the same priority? In this episode of Take Heart, Cory Wing explores the historic Christian doctrine of ordo amoris—the right ordering of our loves. Beginning with wholehearted love for God, Scripture teaches that our responsibilities flow outward to our families, our churches, our neighbors, and ultimately to the nations. Rather than shrinking our compassion, rightly ordered love enables us to love others more faithfully, wisely, and biblically.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

Guided Question How has God uniquely gifted you to serve others, and are you actively using those gifts to strengthen Christ's body—or are you content to simply attend church without engaging in His mission? Summary In this message, Dr. Robert Lewis walks through 1 Corinthians 12, explaining that the church is not merely an organization that runs programs but a living, supernatural body empowered by the Holy Spirit. Every believer receives spiritual gifts—not natural talents—to serve others, strengthen the church, and advance God's kingdom. These gifts are sovereignly distributed by the Holy Spirit and are meant to be exercised for the benefit of the whole body, not for personal recognition or spiritual status. Lewis highlights five foundational truths about spiritual gifts: they are given by the Holy Spirit, they vary among believers, they are distributed according to God's will, they provide believers with a unique place of ministry, and they ultimately call Christians to die to self in order to serve others. Discovering and faithfully using one's spiritual gift gives purpose, identity, and balance to the Christian life. The sermon then addresses the often-debated sign gifts—particularly miracles and healing. While acknowledging common arguments that some miraculous gifts ceased after the apostolic age, Lewis concludes that Scripture does not require that position. Instead, he believes God remains free to grant these gifts if He chooses, though any genuine manifestation must align with the biblical pattern and never contradict Scripture. Examining the New Testament, Lewis distinguishes miracles from healings and argues that biblical miracles primarily authenticated God's revelation, while biblical healings were instantaneous, complete, undeniable, and publicly verifiable. He expresses skepticism toward many modern healing ministries because they often lack these biblical characteristics, while affirming that God still answers prayer and sovereignly heals according to His will. Lewis concludes by returning to Paul's central message: the church flourishes only when every believer discovers and faithfully exercises the spiritual gifts God has given them. A Spirit-filled church is marked not by impressive programs or religious ritual, but by ordinary believers serving one another through the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit. Outline The supernatural nature of the church Five foundational truths about spiritual gifts Discovering your God-given identity through ministry Spiritual gifts require self-denial and servant-hearted living Are the sign gifts still active today? Biblical perspectives on miracles and healing The difference between God's healing and the gift of healing The church's call to use every believer's spiritual gifts Key Takeaways The Church Is a Living Body — The church is a supernatural organism empowered by the Holy Spirit, not merely an institution or organization. Every Believer Has a Spiritual Gift — The Holy Spirit sovereignly gives each Christian unique gifts to strengthen the body of Christ. Your Gift Gives You Purpose — Discovering and using your spiritual gift provides identity, direction, and meaningful ministry within the church. Ministry Requires Dying to Self — Spiritual gifts are never for self-promotion but for serving others in humility and sacrifice. God Is Sovereign Over Spiritual Gifts — While Scripture allows for God to work miraculously today, every claimed gift or miracle must be measured against biblical truth. God Still Heals — Though Lewis questions many modern healing ministries, he affirms that God continues to answer prayer and heal according to His sovereign will. A Healthy Church Is a Serving Church — The church reaches its fullest strength when every believer actively employs their spiritual gifts to serve others. Scripture References 1 Corinthians 12 — Spiritual gifts are given by the Holy Spirit to build up Christ's body. 1 Corinthians 14 — Greater emphasis should be placed on gifts that edify the whole church. Romans 12:1–8 — Present yourself as a living sacrifice and faithfully use your spiritual gifts. Matthew 10:1 — Jesus gives His apostles authority over unclean spirits and disease. 2 Corinthians 12:7–10 — God's grace is sufficient, even when He chooses not to remove suffering. 1 Peter 4:10 — Every believer should use their gift to serve others faithfully. Matthew 16:24–25 — Following Christ requires denying yourself and giving your life away. Recorded 7.25.82

In this Bible Story, Jonah is appointed to preach to the great and wicked city of Nineveh. However, Jonah's hatred is deep so Jonah runs from the will of God and boards a ship towards Tarshish. God sends a storm to catch up to Jonah, and Jonah is taken by the sea. In the deep, he's then swallowed up by a large fish, and remains in its belly for three days. This story is inspired by Jonah 1-2.

Episode Summary Same-sex attraction can become an intensely lonely battle, especially when shame and fear keep a struggling believer from seeking help. In this concluding episode of the Twisted Passions series, Ryan Swanson shares three listener testimonies that point to dependence on Christ, honest accountability, wise boundaries, and a willingness to let God use a redeemed story. The episode challenges both those seeking victory and those who want to help them: condemnation alone is not enough, pride must give way to humility, and God often provides the right people to help us walk faithfully. Topics Discussed Why Christians must do more than simply preach against homosexuality Biblical identity and the way sin twists desires and emotions Turning to Christ instead of trying to overcome temptation through willpower Confiding in mature, trustworthy believers and seeking accountability Breaking the lonely cycle of pride through humility Choosing wise boundaries instead of making provision for temptation The value of godly mentorship, biblical masculinity, and biblical femininity Moving from fear and shame to a willingness to share Christ's work Using personal testimony to help others pursue victory A forthcoming series on less-discussed biblical passages about purity Key Takeaways Jesus understands temptation and remains the believer's unfailing source of strength. God often uses mature mentors, faithful friends, and accountability partners to help us walk in victory. Humility opens the door to help, while pride keeps spiritual battles hidden and isolated. Wise relationships and prudent boundaries both have a place in resisting temptation. A testimony should magnify what Christ has done rather than keep us imprisoned by shame. Victory is bigger than personal relief; God can use a surrendered life to strengthen others in the same fight.

Jesus taught His followers to pray by calling God Father. For many, that truth feels overwhelming: How can sinful people approach the holy and righteous God with such intimacy? In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef explains that we can call God Father only because of the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Without the sacrificial death of Jesus, there is no forgiveness. But through His death and resurrection, believers are redeemed, restored to right fellowship with God, and adopted into His family. By the Holy Spirit, we no longer live as slaves to fear—we cry, “Abba, Father.” Dr. Youssef also reminds us that Biblical repentance is not self-improvement; it is receiving Christ's free gift of salvation. In Him, we are given new life, freedom from the past, power to change, and the right to come to God in prayer. When you cry out to God and wonder whether He hears, do not give up. Because of Christ's atoning blood, you can approach the throne of grace with confidence, receiving mercy and finding grace in your time of need. Pray with me.  Father God, thank You for having compassion on me and for the joy of intimate communion with You. In trials, help me not to become discouraged but to find hope and even joy in my standing before you as your adopted, beloved child. I pray I will use the new life You have given me to honor You. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.  The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

Biblical joy isn't dependent on perfect circumstances. It comes from knowing God's grace, being aware of His presence, and expressing thankfulness for what He has done. Because when you have Jesus, you have access to a joy that can overflow—even in the middle of hardship.
