In this bold and Spirit-led episode of Compelled, Emma Mae McDaniel delivers a heartfelt and challenging message from Revelation 3, calling believers out of spiritual complacency. Drawing from Jesus' letter to the church in Laodicea, Emma unpacks the meaning behind lukewarm faith—what it looked like then and how it still shows up in our lives today. With powerful imagery, historical context, and unflinching honesty, she reminds us that God's discipline is rooted in love and that His correction is an invitation to closeness, not condemnation. This episode isn't filled with warm fuzzies—it's a wake-up call to rise, repent, and live fully devoted to the One who knows us completely and still calls us His own.

Joe Friedman was raised in a family that was proud of their ancestry and devoted to their Jewish community and way of life. But even though Joe spent much of his life as a devoted Jew, practicing rabbinical rules and trying to earn favor with God, something still seemed to be missing. After attending a cult meeting, Joe was so unsettled by the cult's depiction of Jesus, he decided to read a Christian Bible for the first time… and had no idea what God was about to do.

So many clinicians are passionate about ensuring their clients get everything they need to gain the level of independence and quality of life they deserve after diagnosis. The disappointing part is they don't always have access to the expert care they need. That's where Leann Vitale, MS, OTR/L found herself several years ago realizing she had a dream to start her own practice in order to fill the gap. Taking that leap is scary and risky. Fortunately she met the perfect contact and mentor to get her going! In this episode of the I Love Neuro podcast, Leann shares her transformative journey from hospital-based therapy to founding Orange County Occupational and Physical Therapy (OC OT and PT), a specialized neurological rehabilitation practice.

Leann's approach is unique in its commitment to comprehensive, patient-centered care. She shares the challenges and thoughtful decisions she made about her 60-minute model of care, accepting insurance and other decisions that felt right to her. Her story is a testament to the power of passion, adaptability, and a genuine commitment to improving neurological rehabilitation, offering inspiration to healthcare professionals looking to make a meaningful difference in patients' lives. www.TheOCOT.com @the_ocot

In Part 2 of Compelled, Lori Apon shares how God faithfully upheld His promise to be “a Father to the fatherless and a Ddefender of widows” (Psalm 68:5) after her husband, Bobby, tragically took his life. Left to raise eight young children alone, Lori clung to God's word, trusting that He would provide—and He did.Through years of uncertainty and hardship, God's provision came in miraculous ways: anonymous gifts, unexpected opportunities, and even full college scholarships for all eight of her children. Despite the overwhelming challenges, Lori watched her children grow into faithful followers of Christ, defying statistics and reflecting God's grace. Now, as the founder of Perspective Ministries, Lori dedicates her life to serving widows and fatherless children, empowering them to trust God's promises just as she did.Key Moments:(01:20) Recap of Part 1: Lori's journey through marriage challenges and tragedy.(06:30) God's Promise in Psalm 68:5: A timely reminder of God's presence.(15:45) Provision Beyond Imagination: How God met every need after Bobby's death.(26:10) Raising 8 Children with God's Help: The Apon family's testimony of trust and faith.(38:30) Defying the Statistics: How God guided each of Lori's children into adulthood.(46:00) A New Mission: Founding Perspective Ministries to care for widows and the fatherless.(55:45) Encouragement for Widows and Single Moms: Lori's heartfelt words of hope.Takeaway: Lori's story is a testament to God's unwavering faithfulness.

Her story inspires us to trust that God is always working, even when we cannot see the full picture.For more information and helpful resources, check our website, PerspectiveMinistries.org & follow us on Instagram @PerspectiveMinistries.

Scripture Reflection for Apr. 26, 2025: Compelled to Preach by Priests for Life

Monday is election day and Canadians are seizing on this critical moment. Already, more than 7 million Canadians cast their ballots in advanced polls, breaking records for early voting turnout. As each party tries to hone their messaging to shore up the seats they need, we've heard from you throughout this election about how the cost of living, tensions with the U.S. and housing are factoring into your vote. And for some, their party loyalty has been shifting throughout the campaign. Our question: What compelled you to switch your vote? Which issue hits closest to home?

In this gripping episode of Compelled that originally aired on the Compelled podcast, Lori Apon shares her powerful testimony of love, faith, and perseverance. Lori met her future husband, Bobby Apon, at a NewSong concert after a providential introduction through a friend. Their whirlwind romance led to marriage, but their journey was far from a fairytale. Lori quickly learned that both she and Bobby were entering marriage with hidden struggles—Bobby battled an addiction to lust and pornography, while Lori was caught in the grip of an eating disorder rooted in a need for control.Despite their love for each other and commitment to Christ, the Apons faced intense spiritual warfare, emotional challenges, and heartbreaking realities. Lori's unwavering trust in God and her belief in His power to redeem even the darkest pasts carried them through moments of doubt and despair.

Though their marriage began with hidden struggles, Lori's unwavering commitment to prayer and Bobby's desire for freedom laid the foundation for God's miraculous work.Next Episode Preview:In Part 2, Lori shares how her greatest fear became a reality and how she navigated the most difficult season of her life, trusting God through unimaginable circumstances.Listen to the Episode on the Compelled PodcastFor more information and helpful resources, check our website, PerspectiveMinistries.org & follow us on Instagram @PerspectiveMinistries.

This is Part 2 of Lori Apon's story. Make sure to listen to Part 1 first. Lori met Bobby Apon, the love of her life at a Christian concert. He was one of the founding members of NewSong, an upcoming Christian music group. Bobby was young, charismatic, and good-looking, and quickly swept Lori off her feet. After a romance and engagement that seemed straight out of a fairytale, they were married. But at the wedding altar, both Lori and Bobby were in bondage to sin. Lori carried an eating disorder, stemming from her desire to be in control. And Bobby was addicted to lust and pornography. Both of them loved Jesus and wanted to be free... but it was a struggle for both of them... especially for Bobby, who was always on the road with NewSong, performing Christian concerts. No one in the band knew what he was going through, and not a soul in their audiences listening every night were aware of Bobby's inner turmoil that haunted him. But as Lori would discover, as painful and devastating the consequences of sin may be, even greater is the power of God to restore the lost and redeem what was broken.

“You know Jesus loves you. He really loves you.” Those were the last words of John Daniels. Just seconds after he’d given a homeless man money and shared those parting words, he was struck by a car and instantly killed. The printed program for the service that celebrated John’s life included these words: “He wanted to figure out how he could reach more people, so on a Sunday afternoon, trying to help a man in need, God gave him a way to reach the world. All of the local TV channels carried the news and it reached friends, family, and many others all over the country.” Though John Daniels wasn’t a preacher, he was compelled to tell others about Jesus. So was Paul. In Acts 20, the apostle expressed his zeal for the gospel in his parting words to the church leaders at Ephesus: “My only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace” (v. 24). The good news of forgiveness and new life in Jesus is too good not to share with others. Some believers are more skilled at explaining the gospel than others. But with the help of the Holy Spirit, all who’ve experienced its life-changing power can tell their story of God’s love.
