Between in-laws, wild animals, and a mall Santa, they try to make the holidays perfect.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THREE WISEST MEN November 15, 2025 | Hallmark ChannelCAST & CREW OF THREE WISEST MENTyler Hynes as TaylorAndrew Walker as LukePaul Campbell as StephenBRAN'S THREE WISEST MEN SYNOPSISLuke kicks the movie off by looking in the mirror… this time with a shirt on. BOOOOOO. He and his wife are expecting twins, and that's making Thomas feel a little forgotten.Stephen and Susie are wedding planning, and it's a lot.Taylor is touring a video game company where the owner wants him to come run the place—which includes the biggest office I've ever seen. But Taylor doesn't want to move, and since he hasn't talked to his girlfriend about possibly moving out of state… this gig is probably a no-go. Also, he's in love.Luke goes to a Lamaze class and it's an absolute disaster.Apparently Stephen isn't a pet psychologist anymore—he has authored three books and has a massive leak in his living room. Everything is freaking him out. He and Susie end up moving in with his mom while they get the house repaired.Before Taylor can leave the office, he bumps into his ex, Fiona, who gives him the hard sell about taking the job—and even grabs his hand. When he gets home, he does not tell his girlfriend about that part.The brothers all meet up at Mom's house and are shocked to learn she's selling it. They all handle the news very maturely (lol). So it's time for the last family Christmas. But it's going to be an even fuller house when Susie's dad (and his pet bird) unexpectedly show up.They all eat some King's Hawaiian rolls and agree to make this last Christmas in the house the best Christmas ever.The next day, Stephen gets the holiday off to a rocky start when he accidentally lets Bob's bird escape.Taylor is stunned when he finds out his girlfriend is actually excited about the idea of moving to San Francisco for the job. He gets weird about it, and she gets upset.Thomas starts acting out because he feels forgotten, and Luke can't figure out what's going on. That night, Thomas finally opens up, and Luke has a really sweet moment with him.The next morning, all the brothers commit to making Thomas feel special again. They build a giant Christmas fort, celebrate medieval Christmas, and go pick out a Christmas tree. It's a great day.When they get back with the tree, Jared the bird shows up and rats Stephen out for letting him escape. Then they try to catch a rodent that's living in the tree. Then the tree falls over. And just as Thomas declares it the worst Christmas ever… Taylor's ex-girlfriend Fiona shows up. Taylor promptly faints.Taylor opens up to his family about the San Francisco job offer, and they emotionally unpack it—while literally unpacking a HomeGoods bag.Taylor grabs coffee with Fiona to talk things through. He tells her that if he takes the job, she has to be okay with the fact that he's moved on. She's like, “Okie dokie.”Bad news, everyone—Luke forgot his anniversary. He goes to talk to his brothers, which leads to a heart-to-heart-to-heart.They go to get Thomas the one gift he wants for Christmas: a Turbo Man doll. This adventure leads to them getting arrested. Don't ask.At dinner that night, Mom gives Bob a speech about how amazing Stephen is and all that. And then Sophie goes into labor.She gives birth to the twins, and Stephen immediately steals the spotlight by proposing to Susie right there in the hospital chapel.Then Luke steals the spotlight back by giving Sophie a late anniversary gift.And then Taylor steals the spotlight from all of them by asking his girlfriend to move to San Francisco with him. She says yes. Everyone is happy.Wedding time. Big kisses.And Santa Mark LaClark rolls in to drop off a Turbo Man for Thomas.

In 1954, deep under the streets of London, a mysterious 3rd c. temple was unearthed, but it was not as hoped a Christian church. It was a Mithraeum, a place of bloody secret rituals practiced by Roman soldiers. Who is their god Mithras? And is he the real Jesus?

Episode 3357: Joshua Becker reveals how decades of marketing have hijacked the spirit of the holidays, turning a season meant for connection into one dominated by consumerism and stress. He offers a compelling case for simplifying gift-giving, focusing instead on meaningful traditions that bring real joy and lasting memories. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.becomingminimalist.com/dont-let-shopping-ruin-your-holidays/ Quotes to ponder: "Retail promises the perfect Christmas, but ruins it instead."

Let's dive into the surprising story behind God revealing Himself as Yahweh. Why does the Bible sometimes say God, sometimes LORD, and why do we almost never see "Yahweh" printed in English translations? Kaitlyn and Mike explore how this ancient name points to God's character, His promise of presence, and why the "philosophical God" and the "personal God" are actually the same God. They also unpack how knowing God's name shapes the way we read Scripture, pray, and understand Jesus. And with Advent coming soon, Kaitlyn and Mike invite you to send in your kids' Christmas and Advent questions at holypost.com/curiously.

Warning to the Remnant: Stop Kicking Against the Goads & Learn to Run with the Horses (Jeremiah 12:5) | KIB 506 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description In this sobering Kingdom Intelligence Briefing (Episode 506), Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake share a prophetic warning for the remnant—and a deep call to spiritual maturity from Jeremiah 12:5. Mary Lou shares how the Lord interrupted her plans for a "pleasant" Feast of Dedication message and instead commanded her to sound the alarm: those who refuse to leave pagan practices—especially Christmas—will see their infirmities worsen and the enemy's attacks intensify. Dr. Lake then unpacks Jeremiah 12:5, "If you have raced with men on foot, and they have wearied you, how will you compete with horses?" showing how God is using today's pressures to train the remnant to run with the horses of the Kingdom in the dangerous "thickets of the Jordan" in these last days. Along the way they discuss: The emotional "warm fuzzies" and childhood memories the enemy uses to keep believers tied to Christmas The occult, Masonic, and pagan roots of many modern Christmas traditions How commercialization, resonance, music, and nostalgia have been weaponized to keep God's people in bondage Why attacks often intensify when believers resist God's conviction and "kick against the goads" The rising beast system, AI, Nephilim technology, and Nazi/occult influence behind modern advancements How God is using small trials now to strengthen His remnant for greater pressure in the days ahead This is not a message of condemnation, but of warning, mercy, and preparation. God is calling His people to lay aside the stones of Babylon, come out of pagan mixture, and use this "footman season" to deepen prayer, holiness, and endurance—so we're ready to stand in the thickets of Jordan.

Yet again, Jeffrey Epstein is in the news, as President Trump changed his mind and called for the release of all the files. Will Congress vote to finally release everything so we can put this story behind us? Glenn predicts that no one of high seniority in the government will be exposed if the Epstein files are released. Glenn speaks on rapper Nicki Minaj traveling to the United Nations to speak out against the slaughtering of Christians in Nigeria. CNN senior political contributor Scott Jennings joins to discuss his latest book, "A Revolution of Common Sense," which breaks down President Trump's return to Washington. The time of the progressive era is over, Glenn warns, and the time of the socialist era is arriving. Democrats used to love tariffs until Trump began implementing them. What happened? Glenn discusses his interview with the Cracker Barrel CEO over the botched rebrand attempt that nearly took the company down. This Christmas, be aware of toys for kids that are now powered by AI bots like ChatGPT and Grok, which can teach your children dangerous things, like where to find knives and matches.

Allie exposes Texas' rebranded Islamic enclave “The Meadow” — formerly EPIC City — warning of Sharia's creeping dominance in America. She contrasts Islam's conquest ideology with Christianity's gospel of peace, urging bold resistance without fear. Allie also brings attention to the 10-year anniversary of the Bataclan Massacre in France. And amid darkness, Christian music surges, reshaping culture with musicians like Forrest Frank and Brandon Lake. And we also take a look at the shift in priorities between conservatives and progressive men and women when it comes to getting married and raising a family.

It was Christmas Day 2017 when 35-year-old David Horn Jr. vanished from Marcus Hook, Pennsylvania. At the time, Dave was living alone just around the corner in Trainer. That evening, the Philadelphia Eagles were set to play the Las Vegas Raiders. Dave had been born and raised in the Philadelphia area and was a devoted Eagles fan. Spending a holiday night at a neighborhood pub to watch the game would not have been unusual for him. What was unusual was that as other fans were filing in to settle down for the Christmas night game, Dave walked out of the bar. No one ever saw or heard from him again.Dave had plans to leave for a trip to Las Vegas right after the holiday, so when he went quiet, friends and family assumed he was already there. But in early January, Dave's father went to check on him and found an unsettling scene. Dave's truck was still parked outside. Inside, the lights and TV were on, and his belongings appeared untouched. Even the plane tickets for his upcoming trip were sitting out in plain view. Then his father noticed the basement door had a broken window with what looked like blood on it.By then, precious days had already passed. As his family retraced his steps, they confirmed that the last known sighting of Dave was at the pub in Marcus Hook. They learned he had ordered an Uber that evening, but the ride was canceled. After that moment, his trail went cold. Nearly eight years later, Dave's loved ones are still searching for answers about what happened that Christmas night and why he never made it home.If you have any information about the disappearance of David Horn Jr., please contact the Trainer Borough Police Department at (610) 494-7399.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week of Deck the Hallmark is presented by "A Tyler Shaw Christmas". Listen to this amazing Christmas album HERE. --Ryan is back for round two of today's UpTV double feature, and this time the guys are diving into A Soldier for Christmas, a movie UPtv added to the schedule late because they hate us. ABOUT A SOLDIER FOR CHRISTMASHannah, a military widow, and her young daughter rediscover the joy of Christmas in a world forever changed, as they fight for healing and love.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR A SOLDIER FOR CHRISTMASNovember 8 2025 | UPtvCAST & CREW OF A SOLDIER FOR CHRISTMASRenay Rayes as Hannah JacobsJoe Barra as Ryan BarnesCameron Arnett as Pastor Christopher HughesBRAN'S A SOLDIER FOR CHRISTMAS SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off with an absolute bop of a song. It's snowy. It's fun. It's Christmas.Suddenly—GUNSHOT!—and we're transported into a war zone. It's not good. Next thing you know, a troop walks into a church to tell a woman that her husband has passed.Two years later, that same woman is trying to get back out there and date. Her name is Hannah. She has a daughter, Carmen, which makes dating tricky. After one particularly awkward date, she FaceTimes her brother, who is in the military. She talks about how swamped she is with her military service project and all the work at the church. He could not be less helpful.Meanwhile, he's getting banged up in active combat. A fellow troop named Ryan checks on him to make sure he's okay. On his next call with Hannah, he says, “I met this amazing all-American guy that I think you'd really like.” Hannah isn't interested at first—but then she realizes her daughter's biggest Christmas wish is for a new dad.Her brother secretly sets up a call with Ryan for her military project, hoping they'll hit it off. Their conversation is awkward—possibly one of the most awkward ever—but somehow it goes well. They start talking more, exchanging gifts, and eventually Ryan tells her he's coming home and asks her out on a proper date.The date starts awkwardly—Hannah is so used to talking to him on a screen—but it warms up.

This week of Deck the Hallmark is presented by "A Tyler Shaw Christmas". Listen to this amazing Christmas album HERE. --Ryan joins us to review our first of two UpTV Christmas movies today — Saving the Christmas Ranch.ABOUT SAVING THE CHRISTMAS RANCHCarrie is racing against the clock: she has just two days to come up with nine months of mortgage payments or lose her family's beloved Christmas lodge. When John — a charming developer with unclear motives — shows up offering help, Carrie must decide whether he's a lifeline… or a threat. Holiday stakes, romantic tension, and small-town heart abound.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR SAVING THE CHRISTMAS RANCHNovember 16 2025 | UPtv.CAST & CREW OF SAVING THE CHRISTMAS RANCHBrianna Cohen as Carrie WilliamsJonathan Stoddard as John DunnBRAN'S SAVING THE CHRISTMAS RANCH SYNOPSISCarrie is busy running the ranch. She has a lot on her plate preparing for the Christmas festival and keeps adding things to her to-do list. She gets a call from a mob-boss-level intense banker who insists she come see him today. We find out why when we see him staring at the ranch's current balance… it's bad. It's NEGATIVE $1,038.A guy named John calls—again—to try to convince her to sell the ranch. She's not interested. So he decides he's just going to come stay at the ranch anyway.She goes to meet with the banker. It's not good. There's been some shady money stuff involving someone named Sandra Flowers, and Carrie has until 5 p.m. on Christmas Eve to come up with $15,000. That's only 48 hours. Not great!She calls an all-hands meeting and breaks the bad news: no bonuses… and probably much worse. They all get to work trying to figure out a way to save the Christmas ranch.John keeps trying to talk to her about his offer, but she's not budging. He's like, “I can tell how much you love this place. What if I fund building a bigger lodge and you still run it?” He believes there's huge potential for growth. Carrie is like, “I don't totally disagree… but still no deal.”John does a little snooping and discovers the truth—they're really struggling and owe 15k. We also find out that it was the banker who told John about the ranch in the first place, promising him a great deal if Carrie can't make the money.But John genuinely wants things to work out for Carrie because he wants her to stay and run the inn.Carrie ends up raising the money. It's looking great. She brings it to the banker and he's like, “Well, it's a start… You ran out so fast that you missed the part where I said you actually owe $50k.” So that's… devastating.Carrie decides she just wants to enjoy the festival and have some fun. She and John compete in the Reindeer Games together and WIN big time.Everything's looking up—until she catches John talking to the banker and gets furious. “YOU KNEW!”John's excited to hear she's doing an auction—maybe this will save the ranch! But… it's not actually a fundraiser for the ranch. It's for charity.But guess who shows up… SANDRA FLOWERS. She explains she took the money to help her brother get surgery. In fact, the banker told her he'd pay for the surgery if she stopped paying the mortgage and emptied the bank account. The banker pops in with a “YOU LIE!”The final auction item is a cake—and that money actually goes toward the ranch. It's looking like they'll only get about $300… until John pipes up and bids $50,000.He says he wants to stay at the ranch and call it home—with her. And they kissssss.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints regularly presents itself as a Christian church. In this episode, the Thinking Fellows examine what Mormons get wrong about Christianity and how LDS doctrine leads its followers to worship a false god. Mormonism is not Christian; it is a fabricated religion built on teachings that contradict the Gospel and the historic faith.  Show Notes: Support 1517 Podcast Network 1517 Podcasts 1517 on Youtube 1517 Podcast Network on Apple Podcasts 1517 Events Schedule 1517 Academy - Free Theological Education What's New from 1517: Coming Home for Christmas: 1517 Advent Devotional Face to Face: A Novel of the Reformation by Amy Mantravadi Untamed Prayers: 365 Daily Devotions on Christ in the Book of Psalms by Chad Bird Remembering Your Baptism: A 40-Day Devotional by Kathryn Morales Sinner Saint by Luke Kjolhaug More from the hosts: Caleb Keith Scott Keith Adam Francisco Bruce Hilman

Over-Functioning During the Holidays: Why Boundaries Matter More Than Ever Do you dread the holidays—not because you don't love your people—but because you're already feeling stretched thin, emotionally exhausted, and maybe even a little resentful? You're not alone. This week, Leslie Vernick and Coach Diana unpack what it looks like to stop over-functioning during the holidays by learning how to set boundaries—clearly, kindly, and biblically. From role-playing difficult conversations to exploring the internal guilt and fear many women wrestle with, this episode is packed with faith-filled insight and practical tools to help you protect your peace and prioritize what matters most. If you've ever felt selfish for saying “no” or guilty for disappointing others, this conversation will give you the clarity and courage you need to love well—without losing yourself. Key Takeaways 1. Boundaries Are God's Design, Not Rebellion Boundaries aren't selfish—they're sacred. God set boundaries in creation, and He calls us to do the same. Boundaries reflect His nature of order, peace, and love. When we set boundaries, we're not being harsh—we're honoring God's call to steward our time, energy, and hearts. "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." – Proverbs 4:23 2. Love Without Boundaries Isn't Love—It's Control When we can't say no, our yes becomes meaningless. Love that's forced or rooted in fear isn't love at all—it's obligation. God never forces us into relationship with Him. He invites, never invades. In the same way, healthy love must include freedom and choice. 3. Role-Playing Real-Life Scenarios Builds Confidence Leslie and Diana walk through real examples—like refusing to host Christmas, saying no to dog-sitting, or sticking to a spending limit. Each scenario highlights how to express a firm and loving no without over-explaining, defending, or absorbing guilt. These scripts show how clarity and compassion can coexist. 4. You Are Not Responsible for Other People's Disappointment Someone else's sadness, frustration, or manipulation does not mean you've done something wrong. Healthy boundaries often expose unhealthy dynamics. When others push back, it reveals their reliance on your compliance—not your care. "Let them have their feelings. It's not your job to manage their emotions—it's your job to steward your obedience to God." 5. Practical Tools for Calming the Guilt and Holding the Line You'll learn how to: Prepare for pushback by getting clear with God ahead of time Use breathwork and body-awareness to stay calm under pressure Let silence do the heavy lifting after you've stated your boundary Anchor your identity in Christ, not someone else's approval Use simple scripts to hold a boundary without getting defensive A Personal Invitation Are the holidays bringing up anxiety instead of joy? If you're tired of the pressure to perform, please others, or over-function to keep the peace, Leslie's resources can help you create emotional and spiritual breathing room. Register now for Leslie's free workshop: Change Your Story, Change Your Life: Moving from Breakdown to Breakthrough Thursday, December 4th at 12pm or 7:30pm ET leslievernick.com/stuck Final Encouragement Friend, you don't have to be everything to everyone this holiday season. You don't need to hustle for love or sacrifice your sanity to make others happy. Boundaries aren't walls to shut people out—they're gates that let love in. You are allowed to protect your peace. You are allowed to rest. You are allowed to say no—with kindness, clarity, and courage. And when you do? You'll be saying a much bigger yes to God, to emotional wholeness, and to the kind of love that sets both you and others free. You've got this—with God's help.
