In this special Father's Day episode, guest speaker Jeff Stemple delivers a powerful message at Flipside Church, wrapping up a series on 1 Timothy 6. Reflecting on his own experience as a father, Jeff shares a humorous yet poignant story about being called out by his daughter for his "addiction to productivity," sparking a deeper exploration of contentment. Drawing from Paul's letter to Timothy, Jeff addresses the dangers of discontentment—how it distorts the past, ruins the present, and robs the future. He challenges listeners to pursue godliness with contentment, offering practical steps like giving thanks and tithing to break cycles of unrest.

Why has Pride Month become less about tolerance and more about forced celebration—and what can faithful churches do about it? In this episode of Refining Rhetoric, Dr. Rosaria Butterfield—former lesbian activist turned pastor's wife—explains how LGBTQ ideology became a cultural idol and why the evangelical church's "winsome" approach has failed. She offers biblical guidance for churches and parents on how to faithfully respond during Pride Month by boldly proclaiming gospel truth rather than negotiating with idols. Key Discussion Points: - How the gay rights movement evolved from privatization to mandatory celebration - Why LGBTQ ideology functions as an idol demanding worship and child sacrifice - The evangelical church's failed strategy of compromise over truth - Practical advice for parents of prodigals struggling with sexual sin - What churches should do during Pride Month instead of staying silent - Why Gen Z is hungry for bold truth over therapeutic excuses Resources: https://rosariabutterfield.com/ "The Lust of the Flesh: Thinking Biblically About Sexual Orientation" by Jared Moore "The Enemy Within" by Chris Lundgaard John Owen's works on indwelling sin "From Transgender to Transformed" by Laura Perry Smalts Decision Point (decisionpoint.org) This episode of Refining Rhetoric is sponsored by Copper Lodge Library 2025 New Releases Explore the exciting new 2025 additions to the Classical Conversations Bookstore!

After working in South Asia and living in Nepal for 18 years, Matthew Hanson has taken on leadership of The Voice of the Martyrs international ministry efforts on a new region: West and Central Africa (WACA). Listen as he tells how the persecution of Christians looks different in Africa from South Asia. The church in Africa is large; attacks on Christians there often affect a larger scale. Radical Islamist groups are the main persecutors in his region, and Matthew will share how it's affecting believers in his region, including the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Burkina Faso, Benin, Nigeria and Togo. Just in the DRC, there are 100+ active rebel groups. Church attacks and the displacement of followers of Christ has become sadly common. How does The Voice of the Martyrs respond to the intense persecution Christians in his region are facing? Listen as Matthew explains how he and his team evaluate needs and work through partnerships and local believers to help meet those needs and encourage believers. Matthew will share about the ministry of presence and how it plays such a key part of helping with trauma recovery for persecuted Christians. As Islamist groups move into places like northern Togo, a new addition to VOM's Global Prayer Map, Matthew and his team are hearing new reports of persecution and needs that VOM can help to meet. “The church does an incredible job of serving one another,” Matthew says, “it's a community of believers coming together, and it's really exciting.” Hear stories from Matthew about a woman's joy when she received a Bible provided by VOM, the holy moment when eight new believers from Muslim backgrounds took the step of baptism, and the story of a kidnapped Christian miraculously saved from a jihadist group. Please pray for persecuted Christians in West and Central Africa.

In our world, being involved with the life of a local church is generally perceived to be a nice option for some people. Far too many consider church about the same as their gym membership. They come when they feel like it, and when it's convenient. They might even feel a bit of ambient guilt about their habit, but they still don't make it a priority. So we return to our Christian Family talks from Paul to Timothy to us. 1 Timothy is the next Bible book written after the close of the events of the book of Acts. Paul wrote his first 10 canonical letters during the time covered in Acts 13-28. He was released from prison in Rome and went back to traveling to build up the churches he had planted between Rome and his sending church in Antioch of Syria. Along the way, he dropped Timothy off in Ephesus with the instruction to eliminate some strange doctrines being taught there. This letter was his follow up, and we get a glimpse into his plans. 1 Timothy 3:14: I am writing these things to you, hoping to come to you before long; Apparently Paul had not been able to finish what he was doing in Macedonia as soon as he might have hoped, so he sent this letter. What we have here is important instruction intended to be shared with all the Christians in the Roman world. By extension, it is at least as important now, for us, through the inscripturated word of God. You're going to see four essential truths that both define what we are as Christians, and tell us what we need to do as a Church. The first is that we are: 1 - A Spiritual Family 2 - Called By The Living God 3 - Anchored In Truth 4 - Focused On Jesus

What if the same skills that solve decades-old murders could prove the reliability of the Gospels? Cold case detective J. Warner Wallace was a committed atheist who thought Christianity was fiction—until he applied his investigative training to the New Testament. What he discovered changed everything. J. Warner Wallace, a featured cold case detective from NBC Dateline and author of the bestselling "Cold Case Christianity," shares his remarkable journey from committed atheist to Christian apologist. Wallace explains why evidential faith is like wearing a bulletproof vest in a gunfight—especially crucial for raising kids in today's increasingly hostile culture. Key Themes: • How detective skills reveal biblical truth through forensic statement analysis • Why our culture shifted from positive to negative toward Christianity • The difference between "belief that" and "belief in" • Why parental passion about faith is more contagious than any program This conversation will challenge how you think about faith, evidence, and raising the next generation of believers in an increasingly skeptical world.

What if a 2,700-year-old prophecy could explain the chaos in America today—and offer your family a roadmap to understand our times? If you’ve ever wondered whether Scripture speaks to the headlines—or how to make biblical prophecy compelling and relatable for the next generation—this episode is for you. Catherine welcomes back internationally acclaimed best-selling author and prophetic voice Jonathan Cahn for a powerful conversation that bridges ancient truth with modern turmoil. Known by many as one of the most influential Christian leaders of our time, Jonathan returns to discuss the reimagining of his groundbreaking book The Harbinger—a New York Times bestseller for over 100 weeks—now released as a stunning, fully illustrated graphic novel designed to captivate a new generation. Together, Catherine and Jonathan explore why biblical prophecy isn’t just a theological niche—it’s a vital tool for apologetics and a faith-building resource for parents and teens alike. With clarity and conviction, Jonathan unveils the uncanny and often chilling ways that the prophetic patterns of ancient Israel are unfolding in America today. In this episode, you’ll discover: The shocking biblical parallels between Israel’s fall and America’s spiritual decline How prophecy can transform your family’s faith and spark meaningful dialogue with your teens Why modern-day prophetic fulfillment serves as a powerful and often overlooked defense of the Christian faith Jonathan shares how specific warnings from Scripture—originally spoken to ancient Israel—are now echoing in America through real-world events, political acts, and public declarations. These harbingers manifest in physical objects and moments of national significance—often through leaders who are unaware they are echoing the voice of God. From the fallen sycamore tree at Ground Zero to prophetic utterances on Capitol Hill, this conversation builds a compelling case for the supernatural accuracy of God’s Word. Don’t miss these unforgettable moments: Jonathan’s miraculous journey from never having written a book to penning The Harbinger, and the prophetic confirmations that guided him The jaw-dropping fact that Isaiah 9:10—the very verse warning of judgment—was the daily reading in the One Year Bible on September 11th… sixteen years before 9/11 A powerful discussion about America’s current “window of opportunity” for revival—and how humility, repentance, and prayer are key to changing the course of our nation Jonathan delivers a sobering reminder: “If we change the laws but don’t change the people, the unchanged people will change the laws back… The only thing that can save America is repentance and revival.” And Catherine challenges parents to respond with faith, not fear: “The signs of the times are not a cause to be afraid, but a call to return.” As you listen, ask yourself:What might God be saying to your family through the shaking of our times?How can you use prophecy—not only to defend your faith—but to plant seeds of unshakable hope in your children’s hearts? About the guest: Jonathan Cahn has been named along with Billy Graham as one of the top spiritual leaders to have radically impacted our world in modern times. He has spoken at the United Nations, on Capitol Hill, to members of Congress, and to millions around the world. Every one of his books, starting with The Harbinger onward, has become a New York Times bestseller. He is recognized as a prophetic voice for our times. His teachings and prophetic words on YouTube have received over 100 million views. He leads Beth Israel at the Jerusalem Center in Wayne, New Jersey, and Hope of the World ministry, a world outreach of God’s Word and compassion to the world’s most needy.

Motherhood isn't just about managing life and doing all the things — it's about shaping hearts, including our own.

An in depth study on the Foundations of a Godly Marriage.
Reformed Brotherhood | Sound Doctrine, Systematic Theology, and Brotherly Love
In this episode of The Reformed Brotherhood, Jesse Schwamb dives deep into the rich and challenging teachings of Colossians 3:18–4:1 on Christian household ethics. With Tony absent, Jesse takes the reins to explore the revolutionary and countercultural aspects of Paul's instructions to wives, husbands, children, and slaves. He emphasizes how these teachings, though often misunderstood or misapplied, are deeply rooted in the lordship of Christ and the call for submission, love, and service within the family structure. Jesse begins by highlighting the groundbreaking nature of Paul's acknowledgment of women, children, and slaves in a societal context where these groups often held little to no value. Paul's direct address to these groups affirms their inherent worth as image-bearers of God. Jesse also challenges listeners to see how Paul's instructions to men, particularly husbands and fathers, subvert the cultural norms of the time by calling them to love and serve their families sacrificially, rather than exercising dominance. The discussion extends to the broader implications of Paul's teaching, focusing on how Christ's lordship should permeate every aspect of family life. Jesse draws attention to the transformative power of living out these principles in modern Christian households, urging listeners to embrace submission and service not as burdens, but as acts of worship and reverence for Christ. Key Points: Paul's Revolutionary Address to Marginalized Groups: Paul affirms the value of women, children, and slaves by addressing them directly, which was unprecedented in the cultural context of the Roman Empire. The Call for Husbands to Love and Serve: Paul challenges traditional male authority by instructing husbands and fathers to lead with love and avoid harshness, reflecting Christ's sacrificial love. Christ-Centered Family Dynamics: All family relationships are to be oriented around Christ's lordship, emphasizing submission and service as acts of worship. The Surprising Ethics of Slavery: While acknowledging the existence of slavery in the Roman world, Paul subverts its norms by reminding masters of their accountability to their own Master in heaven. Questions for Reflection: How does Paul's affirmation of marginalized groups in Colossians challenge societal norms, both in his time and today? In what ways does the call for husbands to love their wives mirror Christ's love for the Church? How can we ensure that Christ remains at the center of our family relationships and everyday interactions? What does submission look like in a modern Christian household, and how can it reflect reverence for Christ?

Today, we are going to talk about a parenting habit that we rarely notice. If we don't notice it, we can't do anything about it. We have this tendency to lean into depending on our eldest child to do things, because it is faster and quicker and less frustrating. The reality is though, it is holding back our youngest kids, and at the same time, not doing any favours for our oldest either. So today I have some ideas to help us parent multiple ages and to parent in a way that benefits all our kids, not just our oldest, and not just the youngest. Read it here: How To Parent Multiple kids of Different Ages Extra Mention: How to make Training a part of your Heart-focused Parenting: “How many times do I have to tell you!” is something I think nearly every parent has exclaimed. Unfortunately, the obvious answer is, “Until I get it!” but no child is ever quick enough to utter those words. But that is the truth; we need to keep telling our kids until they get it. The problem is though, that we only tell our children where the Bible clearly instructs us to train our children. Let's look at what training means in a parenting context.
