“I couldn't keep my air, I couldn't make any loud sound and I thought my career was over.” Joe Buck In this episode of The Pivot Podcast, legendary sportscaster Joe Buck takes the hot seat for a candid and wide-ranging conversation with Ryan, Channing, and Fred that's raw, insightful, and hilarious at times that goes far beyond the broadcast booth. From calling Super Bowls and World Series to growing up in the shadow of broadcasting icon Jack Buck, Joe opens up about the pressure, the privilege, and the personal journey behind the mic. He shares untold stories from the booth, the toll of living under public scrutiny, and how he's forged his own identity in the world of sports media. No topic is off-limits — from navigating criticism to growing up idolizing his dad to balancing his own career with fatherhood to revealing his biggest pivot, when he thought his livelihood was over. Now headlining Monday Night Football as lead play by play announcer, Joe opens up about his iconic partnership with Troy Aikman, reflecting on their chemistry, friendship, and how they've navigated decades together as one of the most recognized duos in sports media. But behind the mic is a man with even more to say about life off the field — Joe gets real about finding love again, marrying Michelle Beisner, raising twin boys as an older dad, and learning how to prioritize family after years of grinding in a high-pressure industry. He speaks with so much pride about his older daughters and admits he's not great at coaching youth sports for his kids. In a moment of reflection and honesty, Joe reveals how he almost lost the ability to do what he loves and how terrifying not being able to speak truly was but finding the courage to power through, This episode is a masterclass in vulnerability, humor, and resilience from a man who's called the biggest moments in sports — and is now living some of the biggest moments of his life.

St. Paul urges us to “compete well for the faith.” But what does that look like in everyday life, especially at home with the people who matter most? In this episode, John and Victor open up about how easy it is to pour yourself into work or ministry while giving your loved ones only the leftovers, and how the real measure of faith is not just in what we do publicly but in how we love privately. Through Scripture, honesty, and reflection, they explore what it means to run the race with patience, humility, and love. If you've ever wondered whether you're truly living out your faith where it counts, this conversation will challenge you to pause, reflect, and recommit to competing well.

It began with an unsettling presence in the upstairs bathroom. Every time the storyteller showered, she sensed a young girl with long black hair clutching a knife silently standing beside the tub. The girl never moved, only appeared when the storyteller's eyes were closed — a vision so vivid she showered with the curtain half-open, terrified to turn her back. The entire house carried a heavy, anxious energy. Footsteps pounded up and down the stairs at night. Shadows darted across doorways and stood in the open closet. An old man's apparition was often seen leaning over her baby brother's crib, waking him with terrified screams. The most unforgettable encounter happened one afternoon while sitting at the family computer: a female voice drifted from the stairs asking, “Are you dead yet?” Convinced she was alone, she grabbed her things and fled outside, sobbing as she called her mother. Decades later, the memories remain: the haunted bathroom, the voices, the faceless figures in the hall. Was it the land, the house itself, or something tied to her family's troubled past? #TrueGhostStory #HauntedHouse #SouthCarolinaHaunting #KnifeHoldingGhost #AreYouDeadYet #CreepyVoices #RealParanormalStory #HauntedBathroom #GhostStoriesOnline #ParanormalExperience Love real ghost stories?

Some hauntings start small: a shadow in the corner, a door left open, a faint sound in the night. But sometimes they build into something you can't ignore. In this unforgettable letter, a listener shares how his quiet home began to feel wrong, how his guitar strings vibrated with no one playing them, and how one night he clearly heard a voice lean close to his ear and whisper: “Groovy.” The word is bizarre. The moment is terrifying. And it's one of the strangest cases we've heard on the show. Tony, Carol, Todd, and Cathy dive into what makes this story so disturbing. They talk about how spirits can slowly pull people in, how attention fuels paranormal activity, and how “narcissistic ghosts” seem to feed off the energy of those who notice them. Carol shares her own haunting from Burlington, Iowa, where she felt a spirit grow too attached — so much so that she had to leave her apartment for good. This is the perfect example of a haunting that escalates. First, objects move. Then sounds appear. Then, suddenly, there's a voice so close it feels like someone is standing right behind you.

Two years since the October 7 Hamas massacre of 1200 and kidnapping of 251 people, of whom 48 are still in captivity, Israel finds itself still deep in a war, not only in Gaza but several other fronts. Iran and Hezbollah have been weakened but still remain real threats, Syria has been infiltrated by Islamists with backing from an ever more hostile Turkey yet maybe making overtures to peace, the Houthis in Yemen still manage to fire off missiles and launch drones on a regular basis, sending millions of Israelis to their bomb shelters. And the war on truth, and Jews, worldwide has escalated on many fronts. Israelis are prayerfully cautious about President Trump's plan to end the war in Gaza and have all the hostages released, something that's touch and go and a universal sense that Hamas cannot be trusted.

What would you do if your childhood home held secrets the living couldn't explain? For one family in Fort Worth, Texas, the paranormal was woven into everyday life. It began with blankets mysteriously placed over a sick infant and porcelain music boxes winding themselves in the night. A little girl claimed to play with her “Mima”—a grandmother who had died before she was born. And then came the day she saw a glowing figure walk straight out of the staircase and vanish through the front door. But the most chilling proof arrived in a photograph: a little girl smiling with her Easter baskets—while a ghostly figure with long hair leaned over her shoulder. Years later, her sister's fiancé woke gasping for air, convinced something had been strangling him in that same house. Footsteps, shadows, and strange happenings never left the family—until death itself brought her father home one last time. This is their story of ghosts, family, and undeniable proof. #HauntedHouse #RealGhostStories #GhostPhoto #ParanormalProof #EasterGhost #LifeAfterDeath #ChildhoodHaunting #PoltergeistActivity #GhostlyVisitation #TrueGhostStory Love real ghost stories?

Genesis 12:3 is a foundational scripture for non-Jews, Christians, to be a blessing to Israel, and for Israel to be a blessing to the families of the world. It's reciprocal, a formula, albeit parallel. But it's also sometimes overused, and done so in ways that are transactional, even manipulative. How can we understand the depth and obligations of this pivotal verse and what are our reciprocal obligations to one another as Jews with the world, and the world – and specifically Christians – to Israel and the Jewish people. Buckle up. You've never heard this one verse unpacked in this depth, especially now.PLEASE DONATE TO THE GENESIS 123 FOUNDATION ISRAEL EMERGENCY FUND AT WWW.GENESIS123.CO To join us making special events like this possible, please give generously at https://genesis123foundation.revv.co/soldierssocialwelfareGet information about how you can join FOOTSTEPS at https://genesis123.co/footsteps/For information about and how to register for Root & Branch, please go to www.RootandBranchIsrael.comConnect with the Genesis 123 Foundation at www.Genesis123.co and learn how you can host Shabbat in your community.FB - www.facebook.com/Genesis123Foundation Twitter - @Genesis123FIG - Genesis_123_FoundationFind out how you can be part of Run for Zion and bless Israel with every step at www.RunforZion.com.

A Host of Troubles Then the LORD sent Nathan to David. And he came to him and said, “There were two men in one city, the one rich and the other poor. The rich man had a great many flocks and herds. But the poor man had nothing except one little ewe lamb which he bought and nourished; and it grew up together with him and his children. It would eat of his bread and drink of his cup and lie in his bosom, and was like a daughter to him. Now a traveler came to the rich man, and he was unwilling to take from his own flock or his own herd to prepare for the wayfarer who had come to him; rather he took the poor man's ewe lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.” Then David's anger burned greatly against the man, and he said to Nathan, “As the LORD lives, surely the man who has done this deserves to die. He must make restitution for the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing and had no compassion.” Nathan then said to David, “You are the man!  The rich man was quite a host! The hospitality he offered his guest was not real hospitality at all. He faked his compassion for the weary traveler. He was so stingy that he killed another man's beloved pet and passed it off as his own sacrificial gift for the guest's benefit. This would be a prime place for a political commentary on the current state of affairs in the United States' political situation, but the reader is intelligent enough to understand that facet of the parable. Fake hospitality deceives people into thinking the host really cares and has compassion. What the wicked host offers is nothing more than someone else's hard work and property. To review from last week's text in this heavenly hospitality series, a righteous guest seeks a righteous home for hospitality, and he/she has the authority to bless that home with peace: “Do not acquire gold, or silver, or copper for your money belts, or a bag for your journey, or even two coats, or sandals, or a staff; for the worker is worthy of his support. And whatever city or village you enter, inquire who is worthy in it, and stay at his house until you leave that city. As you enter the house, give it your greeting. If the house is worthy, give it your blessing of peace. But if it is not worthy, take back your blessing of peace. Whoever does not receive you, nor heed your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet. Truly I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.” (Mt 10:9-15)   Yeshua sent out his disciples as his messengers. They were to practice what they'd seen Yeshua do: teach, preach, immerse, comfort, exhort, rebuke, heal, and so on. "Let love of the brethren continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it." (He 13:1-2) These are not random strangers who visit, but "brothers" in the faith. No doubt the rich man had some level of acquaintance with the poor man he robbed. He knew where and when to steal the poor man's lamb, perhaps while the poor man was working or gone to the market. A lamb who was raised like his own daughter would not have been left unguarded very often. The rich man's act was premeditated, cunning, a masquerade of righteousness over a filthy act of cruel robbery. Strangely, Scripture links two concepts in the same neighborhood, called smikhut (placement). Those two concepts are lack of hospitality and fornication/adultery. In David's case, he was the adulterer “rich man” who slaughtered the poor man's lamb to prepare for the guest. This was also in the neighborhood of hospitality to strangers and "angels" in Hebrews Thirteen. Just skip one verse down: “Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge.” (He 13:4) A wicked person may seem to offer hospitality,

Eco-friendly tourism doesn't have to be an all-or-nothing philosophy. In this episode of Merging Into Life, host Kim Rodrigues is joined by Claire Martin, an eco-conscious travel creator and founder of Claire's Footsteps, to talk about how we can all make more mindful travel choices. It doesn't matter if it is in far-flung Sri Lanka or on spring break, the smallest effort can have a big impact. Especially if we all pitch in. From slow travel to over-tourism, supporting local businesses to spotting greenwashing, Claire offers practical, shame-free ways to reduce your impact and connect more deeply with the places you visit.

Caller Brandy from Austin, Texas, delivers a chilling story that mixes grief, music, and the unexplained. After moving from California and working exhausting overnight shifts, she tried to grab sleep during the day. But her rest was broken by phantom footsteps racing across laminate floors. Each time she called out — silence. Each time she checked, only her sleeping dog. Then, days after Tom Petty's death, her mom's phone suddenly started blasting one of his songs — no caller, no alert, no reason. The timing was uncanny, especially since Brandy admits she took Petty's death extremely hard, as though she'd lost someone she truly knew. The crew unpacks this story with a mix of empathy and fascination: how artists can shape our lives so profoundly that their passing feels personal, why music often feels like a bridge between the living and the dead, and whether this was a coincidence or a ghostly farewell. From Merle Haggard to Suzanne Somers, they tie in their own moments of pop culture grief and the paranormal echoes it can leave behind. This is a segment that hits both heart and spine — a ghost story, yes, but also a meditation on how loss lingers.

Some hauntings start with a slam. This one began with a song. At just four years old, she woke in the night to hear a woman's voice singing a lullaby in her room. Gentle, melodic… but impossible. No one was there. No rocking chair. No mother at her bedside. Just the unmistakable voice of someone who shouldn't exist. That was the first time. Soon, the activity escalated. A presence sat on her bed, pressing down through the blanket and touching her arm with a real, solid hand. Footsteps echoed in empty hallways. The kitchen screen door creaked open on its own. And at the end of the hallway, night after night, she felt eyes watching her from the dark. As she grew older, the haunting followed. With her best friend Annie, cold spots appeared in classrooms, shadow figures dissolved into trees, and one night a table was flipped upside down while they slept beside it — the glass of water sitting perfectly upright on the floor beneath. Paranormal activity didn't just visit; it lived with them. Years later, the house revealed its darkest proof. Using a simple recorder, she captured EVPs that sent chills down her spine: a man's voice whispering “Let me out,” another answering “I'm coming, I love you,” and the unmistakable sound of a child's laughter in an empty room. These weren't echoes. They were real. The haunting didn't stop at the walls of the house. Phone calls came from the dead — numbers lighting up the caller ID belonging to friends and family who had already passed away. Sometimes silence, sometimes static, but always undeniable. This isn't just another ghost story. This is a true haunting that lasted a lifetime — a chilling reminder that houses remember, voices linger, and the line between the living and the dead is far thinner than we want to believe. #RealGhostStories #TrueHaunting #EVPVoices #Ghosts #HauntedHouse #Poltergeist #ParanormalActivity #PhoneCallsFromTheDead #ChildhoodHaunting #CreepyStories #GhostVoices #TrueStory Love real ghost stories?

We praise God that thousands are rallying to take up Charlie's mantle to boldly proclaim the Gospel and biblical truths to the world. What do we need to do to be ready for this task?

We live in a world of constant noise. Phones, notifications, schedules, and other distractions keep us running without rest. And yet, so many of us cry out, “Why can't I hear God?” In this episode, John shares a personal reflection on how God speaks. Not through the noise, but in the silence, in the whisper. Drawing from Scripture, the saints, and his own story, he explains why we struggle to hear God's voice and how we can return to the quiet places where He waits for us. If you've been longing for direction, peace, or simply to know God is near, this episode is your invitation to slow down, be still, and listen for His whisper.

Idol or Angel? Scripture commands us not to make images of things in the earth or in the heavens to worship them. This means different things to different people, even within the Jewish community. It is one of those commandments that drives the reader to its multiple other mentions in Scripture to make full sense of it: “You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth." (Ex 20:4) Some may not possess any figured images, applying the mitzvah very strictly. Others may give their children dolls or have animal sculpture for decoration, applying additional context for the mitzvah, which is having an image for the purpose of worshiping it or acknowledging its power: You shall not make for yourselves idols, nor shall you set up for yourselves an image or a sacred pillar, nor shall you place a figured stone in your land to bow down to it; for I am the LORD your God. (Le 26:1) In this application, a person avoids images of known gods, demons, or symbols denoting such, but does not avoid having photographs, artwork, or objects in the shape of animals or heavenly bodies, etc. The Tabernacle and Temple were decorated with images of both heavenly and earthly objects according to a Divinely-prescribed pattern. The range of interpretations is not unusual, and it lends itself to investigation so that one can learn more about the mitzvah by tracking down every mention of images as idols. This week, we'll take a look at a song traditionally sung on Erev Shabbat to usher in the Divine Presence on Shabbat, for Shabbat is a moed, an appointed time when the Creator of the Universe promises to visit those who tend His Garden. Shir HaShirim (Song of Songs) 5:1 has been our working text for understanding the repopulation of the Garden when the Bride and Bridegroom join the Divine Presence at the wedding feast of resurrection: I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride; I have gathered my myrrh along with my balsam. I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey; I have drunk my wine and my milk. Eat, friends; drink and imbibe deeply, O lovers. This sumptuous wedding meal inaugurates the reign of Messiah Yeshua, for he will return to earth with his holy ones to rule and restore the earth to the purpose for which the Father created it. What we have learned the last few weeks is that earthly hospitality to the righteous brother or sister is the Torah's pattern of preparation for the restoration of all things. Following our lesson on Avraham and the angels last week, let's pick up this week with Yeshua's reiteration of hospitality. A righteous guest seeks a righteous home for hospitality, and he/she has the authority to bless that home with peace: “Do not acquire gold, or silver, or copper for your money belts, or a bag for your journey, or even two coats, or sandals, or a staff; for the worker is worthy of his support. And whatever city or village you enter, inquire who is worthy in it, and stay at his house until you leave that city. As you enter the house, give it your greeting. If the house is worthy, give it your blessing of peace. But if it is not worthy, take back your blessing of peace. Whoever does not receive you, nor heed your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet. Truly I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.” (Mt 10:9-15) Yeshua sent out his disciples as his messengers. They were to practice what they'd seen Yeshua do: teach, preach, immerse, comfort, exhort, rebuke, heal, and so on. The disciples were messengers, sometimes called shliachim in Hebrew for "sent ones." Another word for messenger in Hebrew is malak: ???????? m?l?âk; to despatch as a deputy; a messenger; specifically, of God, i.e. an angel (also a prophet, priest or teacher):—ambassador, angel, king, messenger

What does it mean to truly walk in the footsteps of faith? In this message from Romans 4:1-12, we look to the life of Abraham as Paul unpacks the heart of the gospel—righteousness by faith, not by works. Abraham's story reminds us that faith is not about boasting in our own achievements, but trusting in what God has promised and provided. Through the highs and lows of Abraham's journey, we see that faith is a matter of the heart—available to all who believe, regardless of background or outward signs. Join us as we explore how to follow Abraham's example and discover the blessing of a faith that rests in God's grace alone, so that we too may walk in “the footsteps of faith” that lead to true righteousness and relationship with God.NOTES:Romans 4:1-3Abraham As Our Example- Abraham: 75 Years Old (He Went)Genesis 12:1-4- Abraham: 80 Years Old (He Believed)Genesis 15:4-6- Abraham: 99 Years Old (He Cut/Removed)Genesis 17:1-6Genesis 17:10-14Genesis 17:22-24- Abraham: 132 Years Old (He Sacrificed)Genesis 22:1-2Genesis 22:10Romans 4:4Romans 3:23-24Romans 4:5-8James 2:14James 2:17James 2:18James 2:21-24Conviction is a Matter of the HeartRomans 4:6-8Psalm 32:1-5Circumcision is a Matter of the HeartRomans 4:9-10Romans 2:28-29Romans 4:11-12John 15:1-2Psalm 51:1-17

So much of our struggle in life comes down to one question: do we know who we are in God? In this episode, John welcomes Carrie Daunt—wife, mother of nine, and speaker with the John Paul II Healing Center—for a powerful conversation on identity and family life. Carrie shares how her newest book, Beloved Son, helps parents speak truth into their children's hearts, and why reclaiming our identity as beloved sons and daughters of the Father is the foundation for healing and freedom. Carrie and John also reflect on the challenges men and women face in living out their vocations, the importance of fathers manning their post, and how ordering our lives with God at the center changes everything.

Lyse Doucet tells the history of Afghanistan in recent decades through the story of the Inter-Continental hotel, which opened in the capital in 1969. The BBC's international correspondent stayed there frequently from the late 1980s, and she details how the Soviet occupation, civil war, US invasion and the rise, fall and rise of the Taliban have all left their mark on 'The Finest Hotel in Kabul', and the people who worked there.There's plenty of pink champagne and fine dining in Michela Wrong's study of the rise and fall of Mobutu Sese Seko, the charismatic dictator of Congo/ Zaire at the end of the 20th century. It's 25 years since her biography, 'In the Footsteps of Mr Kurtz', was published, and as the Democratic Republic of Congo appears to be on the brink of another civil war, she reflects on this latest cycle of violence.There have been calls for international help in the DRC, but just how effective is military intervention in the long run? Ashleigh Percival-Borley served in Afghanistan in 2010 but had to watch from the sidelines as the US and UK abruptly pulled out a decade later, leaving a vacuum filled by the Taliban. Now, as a military historian and one of BBC Radio 4's researchers-in-residence, she's interested in giving voice to women in war – not just as the victims, but as active participants. The New Generation Thinkers scheme, which puts research on radio, is a partnership between BBC Radio 4 and the Arts and Humanities Research Council.

Be My Burning Guest I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride; I have gathered my myrrh along with my balsam. I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey; I have drunk my wine and my milk. Eat, friends; drink and imbibe deeply, O lovers.” Last week, we learned: "Of all the righteous ones of Scripture, Avraham and Sarah were the best known for hospitality to strangers, especially when they received the three angels. (So 5:1) Good gardening is good hospitality to the voice of Adonai, His holy Presence. Because human beings, particularly believers walking in the Way of Yeshua, are in His image, practicing hospitality toward people of faith is an especially sweet fruit of the Ruach HaKodesh." Hospitality prepares us to be a part of the Garden of Eden conversation in the Scripture above. We can both invite the Bridegroom hospitably and remain in the Garden because we possess the vital character of hospitality without which a human cannot remain in the Garden. We can be a worthy guest...and friend...who will bless the Garden. To get a better handle on this trait, let's take a careful look at what hospitality is. What does the word mean? Hospitality: Middle English hospital, "residence for pilgrims and travelers, charitable institution providing residence for the poor and infirm," "guest accommodations" (probably by ellipsis from hospit?le cubiculum "sleeping room for guests"), noun derivative of hospit?lis "of a guest, of hospitality, hospitable” The Hebrew word for “guest” is kara ????? The KJV translates Strong's H7121 in the following manner: call (528x), cried (98x), read (38x), proclaim (36x), named (7x), guests (4x), invited (3x), gave (3x), renowned (3x), bidden (2x), preach (2x) Outline of Biblical Usage to call, call out, recite, read, cry out, proclaim (Qal) to call, cry, utter a loud sound to call unto, cry (for help), call (with name of God) to proclaim to read aloud, read (to oneself), read to summon, invite, call for, call and commission, appoint to call, name, give name to, call by The Book of Leviticus is "Vayikra" ["and called"], a book of holies, our calling to create a sanctuary of holiness for YHVH. This hospitality “preaches” His Presence to the earth and His desire to dwell with us. The Torah describes to us our holy "calling." Not only that, Adonai listens to the cries / proclamations of human beings, especially the poor and distressed. Somewhere in this world, your name can be proclaimed to Heaven, either in frustration, agony, and pain, or in gratefulness, relief, and consolation. How this works is that the needy “give name to” the situation in that home or community. A guest can “summon” Adonai's attention for blessing or chaos. He will actually come investigate the call for Divine help or proclamation of gratefulness! • Now the LORD appeared to Abraham by the oaks of Mamre, while he was sitting at the tent door in the heat of the day. When he raised his eyes and looked, behold, three men were standing opposite him; and when he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them and bowed down to the ground, and said, “My Lord, if now I have found favor in Your sight, please do not pass Your servant by. Please let a little water be brought and wash your feet, and make yourselves comfortable under the tree; and I will bring a piece of bread, so that you may refresh yourselves; after that you may go on, since you have visited your servant.” (Ge 18:1-5) Avraham understood what a special opportunity he had. Without a guest, who would bless? Righteous guests are given a Divine mandate to bless or destroy a home. It's an apocalyptic opportunity symbolic of the end of days. Washing feet and providing a safe place to rest with food is the ancient practice of hospitality to guests, especially honored guests. Yeshua told his disciples to honor one another, not a new commandment, but an affirmation and demonstration of an old pattern of hospitality.

This is a CLASSIC EPISODE! On March 3rd, 1928, the town of Williamson, West Virginia, celebrated the opening of a state-of-the-art facility: the Williamson Hospital. For 60 years, it served as the heart of the community. Within its walls, countless lives began, countless lives ended, and unthinkable traumas unfolded. Generations of families were touched by its legacy. In 1988, the hospital closed its doors for good. The patients left. The staff moved on. The hallways fell silent. Or so it seemed. Today, the building is known as The Old Hospital on College Hill, and while its days as a functioning medical facility are over, the energy of the past has never truly gone away. Visitors, paranormal investigators, and staff all report that the hospital remains active—just not in the way it once was. Spirits of doctors, nurses, and patients are said to still roam the halls, carrying out their duties as if time never stopped. Footsteps echo in empty corridors. Disembodied voices whisper through examination rooms. Some claim to have seen figures in white coats moving through the wards, still working to “help the sick.” Others feel an oppressive sadness in the rooms where trauma unfolded, or hear faint cries of patients long gone. Now open to the public, The Old Hospital on College Hill offers both historical tours and paranormal investigations, giving visitors a chance to experience firsthand what lingers in this haunted landmark. On this episode of The Grave Talks, we speak with Tonya Webb, co-owner and manager of the hospital, to uncover its history, its hauntings, and why so many believe the building never truly closed its doors. Some hospitals heal the living. This one serves both the living and the dead. This is Part Two of our conversation. #TrueGhostStory #RealHaunting #Hauntings #HauntedHospital #ParanormalActivity #GhostEncounters #ParanormalInvestigations #DisembodiedVoices #SupernaturalEncounter #TheGraveTalks #HauntedHistory Love real ghost stories?

Some houses feel wrong the moment you step inside. He learned that lesson the hard way in his mid-twenties, when he rented an old farmhouse. At first, it seemed harmless—cheap rent, plenty of space, just him and his dog. But the peace didn't last. It started small. Chairs pulled away from the kitchen table overnight. Footsteps paced the unused upstairs bedroom. Low, tuneless humming drifted down the stairs. Then came the crying—a man's muffled sobs echoing through the house, night after night. His dog would growl, bark, and finally retreat in terror. Things escalated quickly. A shadow appeared in the upstairs window while he and a friend watched from the yard—clear as day, a man's figure behind the glass. But when they rushed inside, the room was empty. Soon, he heard words in the crying: “Please… don't…” followed by heart-wrenching sobs. He fled the farmhouse, breaking his lease and leaving his belongings behind. Later, he learned the truth: in the 1970s, a young man had lived there with his abusive father. After a violent fight, the son went upstairs and ended his life in that very bedroom. His father's cries were so loud the neighbors called the police. Did the spirit ever leave? Or did it follow him? #TrueGhostStory #RealHaunting #HauntedFarmhouse #ParanormalActivity #Haunting #GhostEncounters #SupernaturalEncounter #CreepyTrueStory #Spirits #Ghosts #GhostPodcast Love real ghost stories?

It begins with laughter—bizarre dreams, even surreal ones of hanging out with the Kardashians. But the tone shifts when Candace calls with her own haunting. A bottle of wine mysteriously appears inside her washing machine. Garage lights flicker wildly, then shut off for good when she commands, “Grandma, knock it off.” Footsteps thunder across the floor when no one is awake. Candace believes it's her grandmother—playful, protective, never cruel. Yet as the hosts note, sometimes we give unknown forces a familiar name because it feels safer than facing what they truly might be. Then comes a darker tale—one of obsession, possession, and fear. A childhood séance in the woods unleashes something a boy named Lee calls Xny. At first, it seems like a game: rolling eyes, strange symbols, eerie voices on the phone. But terror follows. Blue figures flicker in the shadows. Objects hurl from walls. Lee knows things no one told him. And then—Heather, the girl he pined for, collapses, gasping for breath as invisible hands strangle her. The darkness doesn't end there. Automatic writing, demonic voices, and phantom figures stalk the group until Lee vanishes overseas. Letters arrive—each darker than the last—before suddenly stopping. Years later, a collect call comes. It's Lee, alive in a mental institution, still carrying the shadow of whatever began in those woods. Was it mental illness, mass hysteria—or something truly inhuman that took hold of a teenage boy? Whether it's a grandmother's lighthearted pranks or a force born of ritual and obsession, this episode reminds us: the line between imagination and the paranormal is fragile, and terrifyingly easy to cross. #HauntedChildhood #RealGhostStories #ParanormalActivity #DemonicPossession #HauntedHouse #SeanceGoneWrong #GhostVoices #GrandmaGhost #ShadowFigures #CreepyStories Love real ghost stories?

Some houses creak. Others whisper. And some… breathe. In 2013, a family of five and their two little dogs moved into a small rental home in North Charleston, South Carolina. At first, it seemed like nothing more than an aging house—small rooms, narrow halls, and the laundry room out the back. But almost immediately, the family realized this was no ordinary home. Footsteps in empty rooms. Whispers in the night. Their dogs, barked at unseen corners, then ran to curl up with the children as if guarding them. Three encounters would forever mark this house as haunted. The first came from a neighbor. She claimed she saw a boy sitting at her dining room table. The second encounter was more personal. And the final event ended their time there. That was it. They packed up and left, never looking back. This wasn't just a haunted house. This was a presence that wanted them gone. #RealGhostStoriesOnline #HauntedHouse #ParanormalActivity #CharlestonHaunting #TrueGhostStory #GhostlyEncounter #WomanInWhite #ParanormalEvidence #HauntedRental #CreepyEncounters #FadingBoy #SouthCarolinaHaunting Love real ghost stories?

Some ghost stories begin in childhood — and never truly end. This is the true story of a haunting that started with a lullaby in the dark and spiraled into years of footsteps, cold spots, and terrifying poltergeist activity. It began when she was just four years old, lying in bed unable to sleep. That's when a woman's voice began to sing a lullaby. The room was empty, the only TV in the house was silent, and yet the voice was there. Later, she felt the unmistakable presence of someone sitting by her bed — even a touch against her arm through the blanket. Her house grew stranger as she grew older. At night, the hallway always seemed to have eyes. Footsteps echoed when no one walked. The porch door screeched open and shut even when she stood right in front of it. But the true escalation came in grade eight, when she and her best friend Annie began to notice cold spots at school — icy breezes brushing only their necks or shoulders. Annie later woke to a tall, glowing white figure at the end of her bed. Around the same time, she saw someone walk behind a tree in her neighbor's yard… and never emerge. For years the activity continued — footsteps, voices, icy breezes, moving objects — until it slowly faded in her late teens. Was it coincidence? Or was it the mark of a poltergeist, drawn to the energy of adolescence? This is more than a haunted house tale. It's a chilling look at how spirits — or something stranger — can weave themselves into our childhoods and follow us into adulthood. #ghoststory #truehaunting #paranormal #poltergeist #shadowpeople #hauntedhouse #ghostlyfootsteps #trueghoststories #coldspots #doppelganger #paranormalactivity #apparition #ghostly voices Love real ghost stories?

Why do so many men feel like nothing they do is ever good enough? Join us in the pew this week as John unpacks the crushing weight of perfectionism, the very thing that keeps men stuck in cycles of inadequacy and self-condemnation. God isn't asking for perfection; He's inviting you into greatness. When you show up to Mass distracted or spend an imperfect hour with your kids, He sees your heart and effort, not your failures. If you're tired of the voice that says “it's never enough,” this episode offers a biblical shift in perspective. Don't let your mistakes define you; let them refine you.

Not all hauntings scream for attention. Some don't slam doors or throw objects across a room. Some simply exist—woven into daily life, quiet and constant, the kind that lingers longer than terror ever could. This is one man's true story of a lifetime of subtle yet undeniable encounters with the paranormal. His first ghost appeared at just eight years old, in the last place you'd expect: church. A modern Methodist church with bright lights, soft carpet, nothing Gothic or ominous. But children notice what adults ignore. During prayer, he opened his eyes—and at the altar stood a hooded monk. Not a minister. Not a trick of light. A robed figure, visible only to him, that never left his memory. That was the beginning. At university, the haunting returned. His design tools vanished from his desk, only to reappear after he demanded them back aloud. A housemate's mother was a medium. Another flatmate saw a man standing in her bedroom. The presence wasn't violent—but it wanted to be noticed. Later, working as an architect in the Peak District, the paranormal seeped into his career. The old office was haunted by a man who walked the spiral staircase daily. Footsteps echoed when no one was there. Tools disappeared and reappeared. Once, the receptionist held a full conversation with someone she thought was him—though he'd only just entered the room. But the most profound encounters happened inside empty country churches. Some welcomed him warmly. Others filled him with crushing sorrow, an almost unbearable despair that drove him back into the daylight. Even veteran surveyors accepted it: some churches let you in. Others wanted you gone. These weren't jump scares. They were real hauntings—ghosts caught not in screams but in whispers, shadows at the edge of vision, footsteps on empty stairs, despair radiating from ancient stone. He doesn't complain about the silence of recent years. But he wonders: is it peace… or simply the calm before the storm? Because when ghosts wait quietly, it isn't absence. It's a reminder that the veil is thin, and once you've seen through it, you never live the same way again.

Once, the receptionist held a full conversation with someone she thought was him—though he'd only just entered the room. But the most profound encounters happened inside empty country churches. Some welcomed him warmly. Others filled him with crushing sorrow, an almost unbearable despair that drove him back into the daylight. Even veteran surveyors accepted it: some churches let you in. Others wanted you gone. These weren't jump scares. They were real hauntings—ghosts caught not in screams but in whispers, shadows at the edge of vision, footsteps on empty stairs, despair radiating from ancient stone. He doesn't complain about the silence of recent years. But he wonders: is it peace… or simply the calm before the storm? Because when ghosts wait quietly, it isn't absence. It's a reminder that the veil is thin, and once you've seen through it, you never live the same way again.

 After more than two decades of peaceful living in his childhood home, one Ohio man never expected that a simple picture hanging on his bedroom wall would become the key to a chilling, personal haunting. The photograph—a quiet image of the ocean—had gone untouched for 21 years. That is, until his new girlfriend saw something in the clouds: the unmistakable face of her deceased husband. From that moment on, the house was never the same. Silverware launched itself from drawers. Books flipped open. Footsteps approached the bed. And both of them were scratched by unseen hands. Was this a sign from beyond? Or the moment something darker took hold?
