Podcasts about Counterfeit

FBI. ATF. IRS. U.S. Marshals. A federal judge. This wasn't a rogue ICE operation—it was a takedown of a $95 million criminal ring. Counterfeits, illegal labor, tax fraud. The media left all that out. Dr. Phil has The Real Story.

What do you get when a global rock icon, hailed as a Christian prophet, rewrites the words of Jesus, mocks the need to be born again, and openly celebrates Satanic filmmakers. You get Bono, frontman of U2, whose influence stretches from the Vatican to the world stage, all while distorting the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Main Point. The God we forget is also the God who faithfully delivers us. Driving Question. What happens when God is forgotten? (3 lessons from this text): Drifting from Truth – (vv. 6–10). Devotion to Counterfeits – (vv. 11–15). Delivered by God – (vv. 16–19). 1. Drifting from Truth (6–10) "All it takes is one generation to forget the gospel, and we are always one generation away from losing it". D.A.

Send us a textHave you ever felt like you're sitting on an emotional trash can, afraid that lifting the lid will make everything spill out? We've both been there. In this episode, we talk about how we've tried to hold it all together—telling ourselves to “move on” or “just get over it”—because that's what we heard from others and from our own inner critic. But we've found that real healing doesn't come from avoidance. It comes when we let God into the mess, one honest moment at a time.We share personal stories—like digging through old journals and clothes tied to body image struggles—and how counterfeit comforts only gave temporary relief. The real shift started when we stopped numbing the pain and started facing it with God. Psalm 23 reminds us He walks with us through the darkest valleys, not around them. This isn't about having it all figured out—it's about trusting the One who holds us even in our weakness. We hope you'll join us in exploring what it means to find lasting comfort, not in escape, but in Christ.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

Inevitably, open eyes always seem to turn upward. Our faith and our refusal to bow are weapons forged in darkness. The American air industry is now in chaos. Combine airlines, aviation, national security, and the heavy infiltration of Chinese risk. Maintenance scares and hub battles. Where are the reasonable fares? The US Govt buys tickets in bulk? Huh? Looks like money laundering. Eliminate brokers for a start. Operating on a debt based closed structure. Amy Klobuchar is up to her neck in all of this. Firmware is very hard to inspect. Counterfeit avionics is a real threat. When pilots can't override the AI. Let's build a national aircraft security program. All domestic flights need more scrutiny. Chip technology has risks too. China (Taiwan) produces 90% of high level chips. Yes to mandatory source audits. Flight ready seals and instant response protocols. Software components are hackable. Compromised chips are everywhere. All airlines are leased. Even the F35 has Chinese components. We need a Federal National Airline Program. Why not lease at cost and back it with the Defense Dept? Lower costs, safer skies. Restore jobs plus national security. We should no longer out source the wings we fly on. Not when our families are on board.

Have you ever heard someone say the person you're dating might be a counterfeit — someone sent by the enemy to distract you from “God's best”?

How easy is it to spot the fakes in our lives? When counterfeits look so close to what we've prayed for, how do we discern the difference?For Podcast Sponsorships & Collabs

Pastor Brandon discusses the importance of spiritual authority, cautions against counterfeits, and the need for discernment in understanding true spiritual power versus falsehoods. He highlights the concept of bondage and how many individuals may be living in it despite being part of a church community. He stresses the significance of submission to spiritual authority and the role of the Holy Spirit in empowering believers.

There are certain passages in this book that are downright stunning to me. For instance, Paul doesn't just tell the Philippians to “rejoice in the Lord,” he tells them to “rejoice in the Lord always” (Phil. 4:4). He doesn't just say, “don't worry,” he says, “don't worry about anything” (Phil. 4:6) Now in today's passage, Paul says, “I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation” (Phil. 4:12)Remember, Paul isn't able to say these things because his life has been easy. Just the opposite! He faced life-threatening circumstances over and over again, all for the sake of Christ. Indeed, at the very moment he penned these words he was chained to a guard in a Roman prison. Even so, Paul had “learned the secret” of being content. What can we learn from Paul that can help us learn to be content no matter what comes our way?The Greek word Paul uses for contentment means “satisfaction with what one has; independence from all things and all people.” It's the idea of not needing anything, anyone, or any change in the circumstances in order to be at peace.But how do you get there?  In Paul's day, as in ours, there were two philosophies that people followed to ease their discontent. Counterfeit contentment, you could say. Contentment isn't a matter of giving in to stoicism. Stoicism believes the goal is to get rid of desire, to eliminate emotion. In other words, to simply not care. In today's parlance, the watchword would be “whatever.” “My job's been eliminated. Whatever. I don't care.”But this is not what Paul is talking about.Contentment isn't a matter of turning in to self-sufficiency. This is the philosophy of the Cynics. One of their beliefs is to trust no one but yourself. The problem with that is, the only resources you have are the ones you can muster up, and when those run out, you're out of luck. That's why Cynics are seldom content; they're bitter.So, what's Paul's secret? It's found in verse 13. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."This is one of the most popular verses in the Bible, used as motivation by athletes and millions of others facing challenging situations. But we would do well to understand that the original context of these words has to do with learning to be content.  What they remind us is that…Contentment is a matter of leaning in to divine sovereignty. Paul's contentment was anchored in His awareness that Christ was enough and that his life was controlled by a sovereign God who worked all things together for our good and His glory.Here are some actions steps that can help us when discontentment creeps in.Ponder: thank God for all that you do have. Discontentment is largely triggered by ingratitude. Instead of focusing on what isn't, thank God for what is. One of the secrets of contentment is gratitude.Wonder: ask yourself what God might be up to. God is always at work. What might He want you to learn about Him, about you? How might He use these circumstances for the greater progress of the gospel?Surrender: trust God's heart rather than your understanding.  There will be times when God's actions baffle us. In those moments, we much surrender our need to understand the situation and fall back on what you know is true about God – His character and love for you.  Text: Philippians 4:10-13, 2 Corinthians 11:23-28; 12:7-12Originally recorded on February 1, 2009, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

In this episode, Danny and Emily take a hard look at the growing trend of so-called "natural" and "non-addictive" alternatives to real recovery and healing — think microdosing mushrooms, ketamine therapy, kratom, psychedelics, and more. These substances are marketed as healing tools for trauma, anxiety, and addiction. They're often labeled as safe, non-habit-forming, and even therapeutic — but the truth is, they're becoming modern-day counterfeits for true healing and long term recovery. Many people turn to these as replacements for actual treatment, unknowingly trading one false solution for another.

Send us a textIn this episode, we get real about the counterfeit comforts we each reach for when life feels too heavy—whether that's emotional eating, perfectionism, scrolling, or even throwing ourselves into ministry. We open up about how our personal stories shaped these patterns. Heidi shares how growing up with alcoholic parents taught her to cope through control and performance, while Christina talks about how her mom's trauma from WWII in Germany created a legacy of anxiety and over-functioning in her own life. These habits may look harmless, but they often mask a deeper ache we're trying to numb.We also talk about how family history and cultural messages feed these false comforts and how even “good” things—like spiritual routines—can become a way to avoid real connection with God. But there's hope. Scripture invites us to bring our struggles into the light and let God meet us in the very places we tend to hide. Instead of running from discomfort, we're learning to pause and invite God in—right in the middle of our mess.

Send us a textThe American political system has been hijacked, but by whom? In this eye-opening conversation with returning guest Michael Anderson, we dive deep into what he calls "America's counterfeit democracy" – a system where the appearance of democratic choice masks the overwhelming control exercised by billionaires and corporate interests.Anderson's analysis cuts through partisan noise with some startling statistics: when the wealthy favor legislation, it passes 90% of the time; when only the public supports it, the success rate plummets to just 3%. Through his extensive research, Anderson identifies three key mechanisms the power elite use to maintain control: populating the executive branch with their own, funding lobbying efforts, and financing political campaigns. The result? A government that primarily serves the rich while the concerns of average Americans go unaddressed.Our conversation takes a fascinating turn when examining Trump's presidency through this lens. Despite criticisms of his personal style, Anderson argues that Trump may be "the most important president in 50 years" precisely because he represents a rare populist challenge to the entrenched establishment. This perspective invites listeners to look beyond personality and party affiliation to understand the deeper forces reshaping American politics.Whether you lean left, right, or consider yourself politically independent, this conversation offers valuable insights into the forces controlling our political system and how ordinary citizens might begin to reclaim their power.

The late philosopher and scientist, Daniel Dennett talked about ‘counterfeit people' as one of the great dangers of AI – but are we now willing to court the same dangers through our adoption of multiple identities across the metaverse. Moving from the confinement of physical reality to the landscape of the metaverse, where looks, preferences, and genders are limitless, we can each acquire many digital selves. Is a ‘virtual you' a truer reflection of your deepest self – revealing desires and aspects that otherwise remain hidden? What is the human cost of leaving the physical world behind? What are the ethical implications of living without boundaries in a digital space where the borders between morality and legality, in the ‘real world', begin to dissolve?  Lizzie O'Shea sues companies and governments that do the wrong thing. She has run major cases against major technology companies on behalf of thousands of people who have been harmed by them. She is also a founder and the chair of Digital Rights Watch, which advocates for human rights in online spaces.  Patrick Stokes is associate professor of philosophy at Deakin University, and a writer, radio producer, and media commentator on philosophical matters. He is currently engaged in a three-year Australian Research Council-funded project, ‘Digital Death and Immortality.'  Emily van der Nagel is a Lecturer in Social Media at Monash University. She researches social media identities, platforms, and cultures, with a particular focus on digital intimacies. Her book, Sex and Social Media, co-authored with Katrin Tiidenberg, takes a feminist, sex-positive approach to how social media platforms shape and restrict sex. Emily is currently working on a research project about how Australians use social media to create and subscribe to content on OnlyFans.

Have you been comforted by a counterfeit? In this eye-opening message, we dive deep into what it means to truly receive comfort from the Holy Spirit—and how the enemy offers false comforts that keep us stuck in spiritual ditches. Through the parable of the Good Samaritan, you'll see yourself not just as the helper, but as the one in need of rescue. You'll be challenged to stop self-justifying and start reaching for the God of all comfort — the only One who can truly lift you out. Jesus didn't just promise us power—He promised us another Comforter. And until we learn to stop turning to the wrong things (or people) for comfort, we'll keep digging our pit deeper. If you're ready to stop settling for counterfeit peace and step into the fullness of God's comfort, this message is for you.

When it comes to currency, to recognize what is counterfeit, experts have to have a strong understanding of what is real. Our culture teaches us many things about what it means to be a man, what it means to be a woman, and what friendships or relationships should be. When culture teaches us falsehoods, we can have confidence in the authenticity of what God says about us.

Dr. Thaddeus Kozinski discusses his book "Covid 19 and the War Against Reality". He explores the spiritual dimensions of the global totalitarianism that befell the world in the 2020s. We compare 9/11 to COVID9/11. The Powers That Be are attempting to get the world population to willingly reject reality and accept unreality. We ponder why one section of society chooses to live in unreality. He gives this thoughts on the road ahead.

What's really keeping leaders stuck?

Counterfeit goods are always on sale in the marketplace of ideas including “fake Christianity”. On In The Market with Janet Parshall our guest shared his pastors’ heart as he gave us a clear biblical understanding of how a lax faith that includes neglect of Bible reading and application, failing to practice what we preach, focus on the wrong things and prayerlessness can lead us to the trap of an inauthentic faith. He showed the how to avoid these traps and to build and maintain a robust and faithful walk with the Lord. If you or someone you know has endured the pain of sexual abuse, no matter at what age it occurred, there is a long hard road of recovery and healing ahead. Our guest also experienced that trauma in her own life and she reminded us that the source of true healing comes only from the nail scarred hands of our Savior. One of the most respected apologists of our day helped us understand the unseen, supernatural world. Using God’s word he separated biblical facts from Hollywood fiction to reveal the real power, wonder and truth of the invisible world that surrounds us by sharing amazing stories of encounters when the supernatural breached into our temporal existence. Despite what most of us learned in school, science did not start out being divorced from anything related to God and His creative power that formed the world and all that we know. A highly respected doctor pulled back the curtain of history and explained how understanding God’s world was intrinsically a part of the early practice of science and what caused the chasm that we have been living with for more than 160 years. The news never stops and neither does our need to look at it with a discerning, biblical eye.
