Dr. Tim Sperduto - Philippians 2:14-18

While the podcast team is taking a Radical Sabbatical, Kim is interviewing authors of the books that have had a big impact on her in the past two years.  In this episode, Kim speaks with Oliver Bullough, journalist and author of the highly acclaimed books: Butler to the World: How Britain Helps the World's Worst People Launder Money, Commit Crimes, and Get Away with Anything and Moneyland: Why Thieves and Crooks Now Rule the World and How To Take It Back.  Oliver's new book is called Everybody Loves Our Dollars - How Money Laundering Won. Oliver describes a moment in his life that shaped each of these books. He was touring the palace of Yanukovych, the corrupt pro-Russian ex-President of Ukraine, horrified at the extravagant opulence, all stolen from the Ukrainian people. “How did you let him get away with this?” Oliver asked his friend. “Well, actually you're technically in London, not Ukraine, right now,” his friend responded. Who is corrupt, the people who stole the money, or the lawyers, bankers, and accountants in countries that tout their lack of corruption? Oliver describes the systems in place to help the wealthy dodge taxes and the deeply corrupt to hide their theft. Kim and Oliver talk about the corrosive effect on our political institutions and our economy; and how we got here in the post-WWII era.    Guest Background: Oliver Bullough is a journalist and author from Wales who writes about financial crime, the former Soviet Union, and offshore skulduggery. He lives near Hay-on-Wye, and has previously lived in London, Moscow, St Petersburg and Bishkek.  When not working, he likes watching rugby, cooking pizzas, swimming in the river and walking in the hills.  You can find him on Twitter at @oliverbullough.

"Thatyou may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in themidst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights inthe world."  Whata description of the world in which we live today—a crooked and perversegeneration. The word crooked means twisted or bent away from God's standard.The word perverse means distorted or corrupted. Does that not describe ourworld today? Truth is being redefined. Morality is being distorted. Darkness iscelebrated while righteousness is mocked. We see it on every hand, all aroundus, throughout our world, and especially in our country, the USA. Yet God hascalled us not to hide from the world. He has called us to shine in it. Rememberin Matthew 5:14, Jesus said, "You are the light of the world."In verse 16, He said, "Let your light so shine before men, that theymay see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Light doesnot complain about the darkness. It does not fight with the darkness. Myfriend, all it has to do is shine, and the darkness flees. Iam convinced with all my heart that if Christians truly let the light of JesusChrist shine—remember, He said, "I am the light of the world." NowHe lives in us. His light shines through us. It is not our light; it is Hislight, and it shines through us. If we would only let it shine, the darknesswould be pushed back. It would flee. You do not go into a room and curse thedarkness when it is dark. No, you simply turn on the light switch. As soon asthe light comes on, everything becomes plain and clear, and you can see acrossthe room. That is what we do as believers. Our light shines. Paulsays believers are to be blameless and harmless. This does not mean sinlessperfection, but lives marked by integrity and purity. The world should not seehypocrisy in our lives. Our lives should support the message that we preach. Oneof the greatest tragedies is when Christians damage their testimony throughbitterness, compromise, anger, or constant negativity. We just talked aboutthat in verse 14. Yousee, the darker the world becomes, the brighter faithful believers will shine. Thinkabout Daniel in Babylon, along with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Thinkabout Joseph in Egypt and the difference he made. Or even Noah before theflood. They lived in corrupt cultures, yet their lives stood out. The ApostlePaul and the early believers lived in a Roman culture that was dark, corrupt,and cruel. But, my friend, the light was shining. As it shone through theirlives, wonderful things took place that turned the world upside down. Yousee, God never intended for His people to blend into the darkness. Yet thatseems to be what so many churches and believers are trying to do today. Youcannot tell the difference between a believer and the world around them. NoticePaul says we shine in the midst of a crooked generation. We are in the world,but we are not of the world. That is why Jesus prayed in John 17 that theFather would not take believers out of the world, but that He would keep themfrom the evil one. Sohow do we shine in a practical way? We shine through holy living. We shinethrough kindness. We shine through truth. We shine through love. We shinethrough joy in suffering. We shine through forgiveness. We shine throughfaithfulness. A Christian filled with the HolySpirit of God becomes a lighthouse in a dark culture. Peoplearound us desperately need hope. They are confused, fearful, and empty. Manyhave never seen genuine Christianity lived out consistently.  Itrust God will use you and me to make a difference in the world in which welive, because someone is watching how we handle stress, disappointment,conflict, and suffering. Are you shining clearly today? Or are you blendinginto the darkness? Ask God to make your light shine as a bright testimony forJesus Christ. Remember this: the darker the night, the more visible the light.

"HE'S A FRIEND FROM WORK!" Though the MCU as a whole seemed to thrive, one of its weaker links reception-wise was the Thor franchise. Though the first film captivated audiences enough, The Dark World didn't have nearly enough excitement behind it, and thus the original plan for the third film was taken in an entirely new direction for the third one. What resulted was a loud, bright, colorful entry that critics liked and audiences adored, but how well does it hold up? Come join Brian, Alec, Darby, and Trey to find out as they continue Phase 3 of the MCUathon with a film that gets more divisive as the years go by -- Taika Waititi's THOR: RAGNAROK!

Feeling overwhelmed by the darkness in the world or in your own life? Discover how to recognize the enemy's hidden schemes and activate God's ultimate power to break through the spiritual warfare you're facing. It's easy to look around and feel like the darkness is winning, but there is a spiritual reality happening behind the scenes. In this powerful message, Elliott Warren breaks down the reality of spiritual warfare and how the enemy uses fear, doubt, and hidden schemes to keep us defeated. By looking at the days leading up to the crucifixion and the reality of the "evil day" mentioned in Ephesians 6, we discover that the darkness we feel is often a setup for God's greatest breakthroughs. You don't have to live as a victim to the culture or your circumstances. Learn how to stand strong in truth, why consistent prayer is your greatest defense mechanism, and how the resurrection of Jesus wasn't just a historical event—it was an earth-shattering shift in power that is available to you right now. 00:00:00 - The True Power of the Resurrection 00:05:50 - Having the Courage to Stand for Truth in a Dark World 00:10:20 - Ephesians 6: How to Recognize the Enemy's Hidden Schemes 00:18:00 - How Spiritual Forces Operate Behind the Scenes 00:29:00 - Overcoming the Heaviness of the "Evil Day" 00:36:00 - Why Prayer is Your Ultimate Defense Mechanism 00:41:00 - The Prophetic Sign of Jonah and the 3 Days in the Grave 00:54:00 - Activating an "Earthquake" of God's Power in Your Life #spiritualwarfare #overcomingdarkness #resurrectionpower #faithoverfear #christianmotivation #spiritualgrowth #hopeindarkness #ephesians6 #prayerworks #christianliving #biblestudy #Jesus #sermon #churchonline If this message encouraged you today, please hit the LIKE button and SUBSCRIBE to our channel for more biblical truths.

In this week's episode, John Snyder continues exploring the letters of Samuel Rutherford. Rutherford is known for his poetic descriptions of Christ. Even when his life was difficult, he continued to speak of Christ's worth and beauty. In this letter to a young Christian, Rutherford gives counsel in two main areas. He urges him to seek Christ early. He also shows why Christ is worthy to be followed at any cost. First, he tells the young man to give Christ his “virgin love.” This means giving Christ the first and best of his affections. His heart should not be claimed by lesser loves. Then Rutherford explains why Christ deserves this kind of devotion. He points to the beauty of creation. He speaks of the sun, the moon, and the stars. Then he stops and corrects himself. Compared to Christ, even these are not truly beautiful. What once seemed bright is dark next to Him. Rutherford's goal is simple. He wants us to see Christ as He truly is. When we do, everything else changes. We pray this episode lifts your view of Christ and helps you seek Him, no matter what you face today.

What does it take to spend a career staring into the darkest corners of human behavior? In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with retired Alaskan police officer Doug Fifer for a candid and often unsettling look at the reality behind true crime.Doug spent decades working on cases that most people can barely imagine. From deviant sexual crimes to the psychological patterns behind violent offenders, he shares what it's really like to investigate crimes that push the limits of human understanding. They also talk about the unique challenges of policing in Alaska, a place where the vastness of the land can sometimes give criminals the anonymity they seek.But this conversation isn't just about crime. Doug opens up about the toll the work takes on law enforcement officers and the coping strategies that keep them going. Humor, strong support systems, and the ability to compartmentalize trauma often become survival tools when your job requires witnessing the worst of humanity.Lyndsay and Doug also discuss his book, 50 Shades of True Crime, which pulls back the curtain on cases that rarely make headlines and exposes the gaps in a legal system that often struggles to keep up with the complexity of certain crimes.This episode offers a raw, unfiltered look at the realities behind true crime and the people tasked with confronting it.Tune in for a conversation that goes beyond the headlines and into the human side of policing, trauma, and truth.Content Warning: This episode discusses violent crime, disturbing criminal behavior, and the psychological realities of investigating serious offences.

In this episode of StoryPower TV, J Loren Norris sits down with Concerned Citizen, Melanie Graft. This episode is part one of three. We discuss the motivations, events and disappointments which lead up to diving into the dark world of politics.

All your favorite superheroes are here! Y'know, Hawkeye! Black Widow! Quicksilver! And your actual favorites, sometimes! Ten-plus years later, the second Avengers movie seems like a bit of a miss, even as of its subject matter remains depressingly relevant. Will our hosts declare Age of Ultron to be a Ragnorak-level Marvel hit, or a Dark World-esque miss?

Do you ever feel that you aren't suited for sharing your faith in Christ? Maybe you're not comfortable around people. Maybe you've encountered some who are hostile to faith.If so, then we are speaking to you about sharing your light in a dark world.Philippians 2:15 says, “Shine...like the stars in the sky.”Have you seen the movie, “The Ten Commandments?” It's doubtful the real Moses looked and talked like Charlton Heston. And do we really think God looks for His witnesses among people who have that perfect British accent in a Jesus movie? Nope. If we think we have to look or act a certain way, then we're doing it wrong. God doesn't ask our permission when giving us our marching orders for sharing the Gospel of Jesus. Instead, He approaches us as He did Job: Stand up and listen to what I have to tell you.You are called to shine a light for Christ in a world full of dark things. You are equipped, just as you are. God has called you. Be bold in Christ.He is the Star. We are just lights along the way.Let's pray. Lord, the time is now. So many need you. God, would you help us to shine for you every day? In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

If we are transformed by the gospel, we will shine brightly for Christ in a dark world. In this sermon we tackled the weighty topics of Romans 13 - living for Christ by submitting to civil government, loving our neighbors, and walking in the light in a world full of immorality. Preached by Mark Young on 3/11/26

What is your true purpose as a Christian? In this powerful message, Pastor Mark Keene unpacks a life-changing truth from Gospel of Matthew 5:13–16: you are God's invitation to the world around you. Your life is meant to draw people toward the goodness, love, and hope found in Christ. Teaching from Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Mark explains how Jesus called His followers to be salt and light—people who slow the decay of darkness, bring the flavor of God's goodness into everyday life, and shine hope into places that feel lost and confused. Too often believers feel pressure to condemn the darkness around them. But Jesus modeled something different. He built relationships, showed compassion, and revealed truth through love. In this sermon, you'll discover how your daily interactions, kindness, and relationships can become the very invitation God uses to bring others into His kingdom. If you've ever wondered how to live out your faith in a practical way, this message will challenge and encourage you to step into your calling as a kingdom citizen. In this message you'll learn: • What Jesus really meant by being salt and light • How Christians can influence culture without becoming judgmental • Why God's goodness leads people to repentance • The difference between conviction and condemnation • How to build genuine relationships with people far from God • Practical ways to bring hope into your workplace, family, and community This week, ask God to help you be intentional in every place you go. Your presence can change an atmosphere. Your kindness can open hearts. Your life can become the invitation someone needs to encounter God. You are salt. You are light. You are God's invitation to the world.

Friday Headlines: More Aussies return from Middle East as thousands flee Beirut Hizb ut-Tahrir officially banned 'From the river to the sea' and 'globalise the intifada' outlawed in Queensland Number of kids enrolled in public school drops to record low Matildas beat Iran 4-0 in Asian Cup clash Britney Spears arrested in California Deep Dive: Millions of young men’s algorithms are being taken over by looksmaxxing. What starts as self-improvement - gym sessions, grooming routines and ‘mewing’ -can spiral into extreme dieting, steroids, cosmetic surgery and even ‘bone-smashing,’ where men attempt to break and reshape their own facial bones to appear more masculine. Critics warn the trend is fuelling a pipeline toward incel culture, wrapped up in the language of optimisation and status. In this episode of The Briefing, Helen Smith is joined by Sam Cornell a public health researcher who unpacks how the rise of looksmaxxing has racked up millions of views online and is more than vanity – turning into something darker.

On this episode of the Reading With Your Kids Podcast, host Jed Doherty welcomes two amazing middle grade authors who explore how stories can help kids find light, courage, and connection in a complicated world. First, Jed talks with Emily Bain Murphy, author of the new middle grade fantasy "Light Seekers, A Kingdom of Shadows." Emily shares the inspiration behind her richly imagined world of Wildfell Hall, where darkness is growing stronger after an event called The Great Betrayal. We meet Finn, his sister Lydia, and best friend Adrian, three kids with few adults in their lives who are invited on a quest to find a legendary lake made of light. Emily discusses writing this series during the pandemic, her desire to help kids "seek the light" through themes of faith, beauty, hope, and kindness, and practical ways she encourages her own kids to unplug from negativity and intentionally look for beauty in everyday life. She and Jed also celebrate co‑reading, talking about how families can use books like Light Seekers to spark meaningful conversations at home. Then Jed is joined by Aaron Starmer, author of the spooky, heartful middle grade novel "You Are Now Old Enough to Hear This." Aaron introduces Roman, a 12‑year‑old tasked with cleaning out his late grandfather's house, where he uncovers a jar of formaldehyde, a mysterious handwritten book, and the eerie family legend of the tow beast. Aaron talks about why creepy middle grade books appeal to kids, how family stories and secrets shape identity, and why he loves writing fiction that blends chills with emotional depth.

John 7-9 When we reach these chapters, we find Jesus during the Feast of Tabernacles. Jesus talks about the water-pouring and lamp-lighting ceremonies and declares that he is their fulfillment. He is the Water of Life and the Light of the World. As we read of the healing of the man born blind, we learn how the light of Jesus exposes sin, overcomes darkness, and brings spiritual light. Belief brings sight, unbelief blinds. Allow the light of Jesus to guide you through the darkness of this world.

In this episode, Dr. Nathaniel J. Wilson shares encouraging reports of revival — from Michigan to Mexico — reminding us that even in dark times, God is still moving.

Adult Pastor Ron King continues a series on Philippians.Paul writes from prison, but his focus isn't on suffering. It's on formation. On what it looks like for ordinary believers to live faithfully in the middle of a broken world.This section of Philippians confronts a tension every Christian feels: salvation is fully accomplished by Christ, and yet we are called to actively live it out — with humility, dependence, seriousness, and joy.Paul presses the church to shine without grumbling, to reorder our lives around the interests of Jesus, and to recognize the quiet heroism of faithful partners like Timothy and Epaphroditus, who gave themselves fully to the work of Christ.You're invited to examine how you're living between grace received and glory promised.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on February 1, 2026, at 9:30am.

"This will usher in an era of peace and prosperity globally."  The people of Iran are reclaiming their culture, their prosperity, and their freedom. All things were taken away during the Iranian revolution in '78 and '79 when their Monarch, Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi, was forced into exile by the Islamic Republic.    They promised freedom, dignity, and justice but they delivered quite the opposite. They served only themselves, they stole from the people to fund terrorism, and used fear to suppress the Iranian people.  But fear is only powerful when people are isolated. Now, with the force of their collective strength, backed by a "locked & loaded" US military, the Iranian people are taking back what belongs to them.   President Trump said, "If you do what you normally do, what your custom is, is shoot and kill these peaceful protesters, the US military is locked and loaded and we're ready to rescue them."   The only thing about Iran that's fragile is its corrupt regime. So, what happens if the regime collapses?   Real change comes from brotherhood, communication, and a shared sense of community. Collective energy is what moves events forward behind the scenes. And that's when the regime eventually collapses, Iran won't fall into chaos. The people are already organizing around unity, not fear—and that kind of cohesion is what brings clarity, stability, and light when it's needed most.  Wayne Allyn Root is a nationally syndicated radio and television host, bestselling author, and longtime political commentator.

This week, Granger sits down with Jim Daly, president of Focus on the Family, for a heartfelt conversation about faith, family, and the work God is doing through everyday people. Granger shares how Focus on the Family shaped his own upbringing, even playing a voice message from his mom describing how the ministry prayed for their family through some of their hardest years. Jim responds with stories of his own, reflecting on how the ministry seeks to strengthen homes and reach people who feel unseen or overwhelmed. As the conversation unfolds, the two talk about the importance of investing in young men and why this next generation is at the center of so many cultural battles. They discuss what real masculinity looks like, how the world often distorts it, and why raising strong, humble, Christ-centered men matters so deeply for families and churches. Granger and Jim also take time to talk about marriage, purpose, and the value of bringing children into a world that feels increasingly unstable. Jim’s perspective is clear and encouraging — God places us exactly where and when He intends, and He equips parents to raise kids with courage and hope, even in difficult times. It’s an honest and uplifting episode filled with wisdom, stories, and gratitude for the ministry that has touched so many families.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, we dive into the heated Halloween debate about Halloween's origins and whether Christians can celebrate it biblically without compromising their faith.

We also reflect on Martin Luther's influence on the Protestant Reformation that was sparked on October 31.

Nathan Apffel is a Christian, filmmaker, entrepreneur, and director of The Religion Business, a multi-part docuseries that exposes the financial practices and lack of accountability in Western religion, particularly Christianity. Drawing from personal experiences with church scandals and abuse, Apffel investigates how religious institutions accumulate vast wealth, estimated at $2 trillion in the U.S. alone, while often prioritizing internal spending over community impact, with 94 cents of every donated dollar staying within church walls. Co-produced with Chris Ayoub, the series features interviews with experts like Joel Osteen and highlights issues like the religious exemption from financial reporting. Apffel is developing tech solutions to promote transparency and community-driven reform in religious organizations. He advocates for ethical governance, victim support, and redirecting resources to solve global issues like poverty and homelessness. Based in the U.S., Apffel blends storytelling, technology, and faith to challenge the status quo and foster meaningful change in the "nonprofit Goliath" of organized religion.
