This week Pastor Paul finished up the Faith of our Fathers series with a sermon from May 1776. In this sermon, Paul gave us areas where God's providence is in play and what our defiance proves to be true about us. Is victory possible? If so, what things must we do? Listen in to find out.

In today's episode, we address the urgent need for believers to revive and activate the spiritual weapons God has given us. While the world looks to military strength, political solutions, and the power of human institutions, Scripture reminds us that the deepest battles facing our world are spiritual in nature. From the ongoing crisis in the Middle East to the moral and cultural confusion affecting our communities and homes, Christians are called to engage in a different kind of warfare.Drawing from God's Word, we explore the truth that "we do not war after the flesh" and that our weapons are "mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds." We discuss the power of prayer, faith, and the authority believers have in Jesus Christ to cast down imaginations, overcome spiritual opposition, and bring every thought into obedience to Christ.Featuring insights from America's founding era, including the wisdom of Declaration signer John Witherspoon, this episode is a powerful reminder that our ultimate trust must never be in the arm of flesh, but in the sovereign power of God. Join us as we examine how believers can stand firm, claim daily victory in Christ, and faithfully engage in the spiritual warfare of our time.The Voice in the Wilderness does not endorse any link or other material found at buzzsprout.More at https://www.thevoiceinthewilderness.org/

Karl Bastian Podcast #233 – Faith & Freedom #2: A Judge, a Spy, and a PastorAs America celebrates her 250th Anniversary, Karl continues the Faith & Freedom series by exploring three remarkable men whose names are often forgotten—but whose influence helped shape the United States.Meet John Jay, the brilliant judge who helped establish the rule of law for a new nation. Discover Nathan Hale, the young schoolteacher turned patriot whose final words became legendary after giving his life for the cause of liberty. And meet John Witherspoon, the Scottish pastor and college president whose faith and leadership shaped a generation of America's founders, including James Madison.Three men. Three different callings. One shared conviction that faith, character, and freedom were worth serving—and sacrificing—for.More than a history lesson, this episode reminds us that God doesn't change history through one famous leader alone. He works through judges, teachers, pastors, parents, and ordinary people who faithfully answer His call. And perhaps... the next world-changer is already sitting in your classroom.Share with Kidology.org/podcast233THE KARL BASTIAN PODCAST (Formerly KidminTalk) is the Podcast of "Kidologist" Karl Bastian, founder of Kidology.org and host of The Karl Bastian Podcast.

This 4th of July weekend, Pastor Kirt Anderson shares a message on praying for those in authority, drawn from Paul's letter to Timothy written while Paul was imprisoned in Rome. Pastor Kirt walks through why Paul urged the early church to pray for kings and leaders even under persecution, and what it means for us today to live peaceful, quiet lives marked by goodness and dignity.Along the way, Pastor Kirt shares stories from American history, including John Witherspoon's legacy at Princeton and the story of Chief Joseph, along with personal family moments that bring the message home.

On America 250/Semiquincentennial, learn why understanding the Declaration of Independence is important, especially in these tumultuous times when patriotism is at an all-time low. Discover why the Second Continental Congress decided to have a Declaration of Independence and how a committee of five of Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Roger Sherman and Robert Livingston were chosen to draft it. Explore why John Adams insisted that Thomas Jefferson draft it, and how the Committee and the Second Continental Congress changed Jefferson's draft. Hear the entire Declaration of Independence, the most profound words written in the English language that were approved by the Second Continental Congress on July 4, 1776.Most Americans have never read the entire Declaration of Independence and have a elementary grade level understanding of it. Most remember the soaring words of the second paragraph (“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among the are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness”), and maybe the last clause (“we mutually pledge our to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor”), and have not reviewed in any detail the remainder of the 1320 words. The rest is not just taxation without representation. There were 27 grievances listed by the Founding Fathers, of which taxation without representation is but one. In addition to the amazing, stirring words we are familiar with, and with the exceptions of John Hancock, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Benjamin Franklin, nearly no one knows the entire roster of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. The full roster of the signers is John Adams, Samuel Adams, Josiah Bartlett, Carter Braxton, Charles Carroll of Carrolton, Samuel Chase, Abraham Clark, George Clymer, William Ellery, William Floyd, Benjamin Franklin, Elbridge Gerry, Button Gwinnett, Lyman Hall, John Hancock, Benjamin Harrison, John Hart, Joseph Hewes, Thomas Hayward, Jr., William Hooper, Stephen Hopkins, Francis Hopkinson, Samuel Huntington, Thomas Jefferson, Francis Lightfoot Lee, Richard Henry Lee, Francis Laws, Philip Livingston, Thomas Lynch, Jr., Thomas McKean, Arthur Middleton, Lewis Morris, Robert Morris, John Morton, Thomas Nelson, Jr. , William Paca, Robert Treat Paine, John Penn, George Read, Caesar Rodney, George Ross, Dr. Benjamin Rush, Edward Rutledge, Roger Sherman, James Smith, Richard Stockton, Thomas Stone, George Taylor, Matthew Thorton, George Walton, William Whipple, William Williams, James Wilson, John Witherspoon, Oliver Wolcott, and George Wythe.Listen at your leisure to the amazing Declaration of Independence.

I've been holding onto this for four years, but I couldn't start Ad-Lib without honoring my dad, John Witherspoon. In this debut episode, I'm finally sharing the last phone call we ever had from "stolen" AirPods to his "Cooking for Poor People" days. It's a raw look at grief, our bond, and why I'm dedicated to capturing these time capsules before they're gone.Support for Free on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/JDWitherspoonJoin my mailing list https://forms.gle/xykDLWc5nJAdV2QLASocials https://linktr.ee/adlibpodcastjdwLeave A Voice Message Here https://www.speakpipe.com/adlibpodcast

We know James Madison as the Father of the Constitution. But who was he before that? In this special episode, Dr. Katie Crawford Lackey takes the guest seat to explore the formative years that made Madison who he is.At 25, Madison was the youngest major figure of the founding era — small, sickly, quiet, and easy to overlook. He never commanded armies or delivered rousing speeches. What he had were ideas, and a framework for thinking about power, human nature, and government that no one else in the room quite possessed. Where did that framework come from?The answer lies in three Scottish Enlightenment-influenced teachers, a frontier Virginia upbringing, and an unconventional choice to attend the College of New Jersey — the institution we know today as Princeton — rather than William and Mary, where every other wealthy Virginia man of his generation enrolled.Dr. Crawford-Lackey traces Madison's intellectual development from the schoolroom of Donald Robertson, where a 70-mile horseback journey opened a young boy's mind to Locke, Milton, and Montesquieu, through his years under John Witherspoon at Princeton — where he experienced the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party not as distant news, but as live confirmation of everything the Scottish Enlightenment had taught him about human passion and the limits of reason.Madison wasn't born a Founding Father. He was made — by a rigorous education, a world in crisis, and the hardest question anyone could ask on the eve of a revolution: What kind of people is government meant to govern?The answer he arrived at still shapes American democracy today.

Today, David applies the Apostle Paul's declaration that true wisdom and knowledge are found in the revelation of “the mystery of God, of the Father and of Christ” (Colossians 2:3) to a famous sentence sentence in the Declaration of Independence often quoted by Christians. He asks: Have Christians been taken captive by philosophies of men? Today he documents the philosophy of the time the Declaration was written to set the stage for the answer and way forward that he releases tomorrow.Support the show: https://www.factennessee.org/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Dean's List with Host Dean Bowen – Columbia promotes socialism while ignoring thinkers who defend liberty, free markets, and constitutional principles. John Witherspoon's Princeton legacy contrasts sharply with today's ideological classrooms, while Liza Libes's Soviet family history exposes socialism's true cost and reminds readers why education must recover truth, goodness, beauty, and honest historical memory...

In this episode we explore John Witherspoon's famous sermon, The Dominion of Providence Over the Passions of Men. Preached in 1776 amid the growing struggle for American independence, Witherspoon reflects on God's sovereign rule over human affairs, showing how even conflict, suffering, and the ambitions of men ultimately serve His purposes. Along the way, he calls Christians to trust God's providence, pursue personal holiness, and labor faithfully for the good of church and nation.Dead Presbyterians Society is a ministry of Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary.

The Preacher Behind the Constitution #RTTBROS #NIGHTLIGHT #USA250 #AMERICA250 #NATION250The Preacher Behind the Constitution“"The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?”— Jeremiah 17:9THE STORYJames Madison arrived at the Constitutional Convention with a plan.He had spent the winter of 1786 to 1787 reading every book he could find on the history of governments. He studied them as a diagnostician, trying to understand why human governments so reliably collapse into tyranny or anarchy.His conclusion was thoroughly biblical: the problem is human nature. People in power abuse it. Majorities oppress minorities. Madison's genius was in designing a system that took human sin seriously as a structural assumption. Checks and balances. Separation of powers. Federalism. Each element of the Constitution reflects a deep suspicion of concentrated human authority.Madison had learned this from a Presbyterian minister. John Witherspoon, the only clergyman to sign the Declaration of Independence, was president of the College of New Jersey when Madison was a student. The Father of the Constitution was, in a real sense, the student of a preacher.THE REFLECTIONJeremiah 17:9 is not a comfortable verse. The heart is deceitful above all things. Desperately wicked. This is the anthropology of Scripture, which takes the Fall seriously.Madison took it seriously. His Constitution was built for fallen people living in a fallen world, which is exactly why it has lasted longer than any comparable governing document in history. It does not assume the best about human nature. It builds in safeguards for the worst.The irony is beautiful: the most successful secular governing document in human history works precisely because it was designed around a profoundly biblical understanding of human nature.We live in an age that has recovered the Enlightenment's optimism about human nature, the belief that people given enough education will reliably choose good. History has not been kind to that view. Scripture has always been honest about it.THE PATRIOT'S PRAYERLord, You know the heart better than we know ourselves, and we are grateful that You do not leave us to our own devices. We thank You for the wisdom You gave to the framers of this Constitution, wisdom that looked honestly at human nature and built accordingly. Forgive us for the ways we have trusted in our own goodness rather than Your grace. In Jesus' name, Amen.PRAY IT FORWARD: Ask God today to show you an area of your own heart where you have been trusting in your own goodness rather than His grace, and receive His honest assessment with humility.

We welcome Darryl G. Hart back to Christ the Center to discuss Protestants and Patriots: Presbyterians in the Age of Revolution, published by the University of Notre Dame Press. Hart traces the transatlantic story of Presbyterianism from the Reformation through the age of revolutions, asking why Presbyterian polity so often became a political irritant in Britain, Ireland, North America, and beyond. The conversation ranges from Calvin's Geneva and the French Reformed connection to the Scottish Covenanters, the English civil wars, John Witherspoon, the American founding, the 1788 revision of the Westminster Confession, and contemporary debates over Christian nationalism. Along the way, Hart helps us see how questions of church government, civil authority, establishment, liberty, and public memory are bound up with the church's confession that Christ alone is head of his church.

This nation was built by Protestant Christians – puritans and presbyterians who believed in the sovereignty of God. They believed that God was sovereign over the great movements of nations and civilizations because they believed He was exhaustively sovereign over every detail of the universe, preeminently the salvation of every man, woman, and child.Cotton Mather, Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield, and John Witherspoon all preached this sovereign grace rooted in the historical event of the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.The Text: “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them” (Eph. 2:4-10).King's Cross Church is a member congregation of the CREC in Moscow, ID.

Before the Constitution was written, John Witherspoon was shaping the minds that would build it. Who was John Witherspoon and how did he influence James Madison and the Constitution? Discover how this forgotten Founder helped define America's moral and constitutional DNA, and taught a Republic how to think. This episode of the America's Founding Series explores how John Witherspoon's philosophy of "self-evident truths," moral realism, and human nature influenced James Madison and the structure of the United States Constitution. At a time when civilizational seriousness feels in short supply, Witherspoon's ideas about education, virtue, and limited government reveal why the survival of a republic begins in the classroom. It's time for a MATA moment – Make Americans Think Again – by looking at the Witherspoon model that we've abandoned. What You'll Learn Why John Witherspoon's teachings shaped James Madison and Federalist 51 The true meaning of "self-evident truths" in the Declaration of Independence How Scottish Common Sense philosophy grounded America's natural rights framework Why the doctrine of human fallibility led to checks and balances What modern leadership can learn from Witherspoon's model of education and statesmanship If the West is struggling with strategic and moral drift, the solution may lie in rediscovering the intellectual foundation laid by John Witherspoon.

In this episode of Hip Hop What Ifs, we explore one of the most intriguing "almost" moments in cinematic history: the possibility of DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince (Will Smith) taking the lead roles in the 1990 classic House Party. We pull back the curtain on the unexpected legal battle that started it all, involving a copyright infringement lawsuit filed by New Line Cinema over the duo's hit song "A Nightmare on My Street". As part of a potential settlement to offset the lawsuit, the studio offered the pair several film scripts, with House Party being one of the primary options on the table. The discussion dives deep into why the duo ultimately passed on the project, including DJ Jazzy Jeff's hesitation regarding the film's heavy focus on dancing. We also examine the creative vision of director Reginald Hudlin, who originally developed the story as his college thesis at Harvard, inspired by the vibe of Luther Vandross's "Bad Boy Tonight". You will learn how the search for a "black hip hop group" led Hudlin to Kid 'n Play after witnessing their massive fan reception in New York, a move that would define the culture of the early 90s. Finally, we analyze the "Butterfly Effect" of this casting choice. We compare the popularity of Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince against Kid 'n Play in the late 80s, debating whether the film would have reached the same heights without the specific chemistry and iconic dance moves of the legendary duo. We also touch on the supporting cast that rounded out the masterpiece, including the introduction of a young Martin Lawrence, the bullying presence of Full Force, and the comedic brilliance of Robin Harris and John Witherspoon.

This episode launches a special five-part miniseries examining James Madison's role in the American Revolution and the founding of the United States. Part of Montpelier's commemoration of the 250th anniversary of American independence, this series is funded by a grant from the Virginia American Revolution 250 Commission in partnership with Virginia Humanities.Dr. Katie Crawford Lackey talks with Dr. Lynn Uzzell about Madison's formative years—from his education at the College of New Jersey (Princeton) under John Witherspoon to his early political activism in 1770s Virginia. The conversation explores how Madison's exposure to Scottish Enlightenment philosophy and religious diversity shaped his lifelong commitment to freedom of conscience. At just 25 years old, Madison contributed critical language to Virginia's 1776 Declaration of Rights, replacing "toleration" with "free exercise of religion"—phrasing that would later appear in the First Amendment. The episode traces Madison's service during the Revolutionary War through the Continental Congress and his growing recognition of the weaknesses in the Articles of Confederation, setting the stage for his pivotal role at the Constitutional Convention of 1787.

Learn why understanding the Declaration of Independence is important especially in these tumultuous times when patriotism is at an all time low. Discover why the Second Continental Congress decided to have a Declaration of Independence and how a committee of five of Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Roger Sherman and Robert Livingston were chosen to draft it. Explore why John Adams insisted that Thomas Jefferson draft it, and how the Committee and the Second Continental Congress changed Jefferson's draft. Hear the entire Declaration of Independence, the most profound words written in the English language that were approved by the Second Continental Congress on July 4, 1776.Most Americans have never read the entire Declaration of Independence and have a elementary grade level understanding of it. Most remember the soaring words of the second paragraph (“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among the are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness”), and maybe the last clause (“we mutually pledge our to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor”), and have not reviewed in any detail the remainder of the 1320 words. The rest is not just taxation without representation. There were 27 grievances listed by the Founding Fathers, of which taxation without representation is but one. In addition to the amazing, stirring words we are familiar with, and with the exceptions of John Hancock, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Benjamin Franklin, nearly no one knows the entire roster of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. The full roster of the signers is John Adams, Samuel Adams, Josiah Bartlett, Carter Braxton, Charles Carroll of Carrolton, Samuel Chase, Abraham Clark, George Clymer, William Ellery, William Floyd, Benjamin Franklin, Elbridge Gerry, Button Gwinnett, Lyman Hall, John Hancock, Benjamin Harrison, John Hart, Joseph Hewes, Thomas Hayward, Jr., William Hooper, Stephen Hopkins, Francis Hopkinson, Samuel Huntington, Thomas Jefferson, Francis Lightfoot Lee, Richard Henry Lee, Francis Laws, Philip Livingston, Thomas Lynch, Jr., Thomas McKean, Arthur Middleton, Lewis Morris, Robert Morris, John Morton, Thomas Nelson, Jr. , William Paca, Robert Treat Paine, John Penn, George Read, Caesar Rodney, George Ross, Dr. Benjamin Rush, Edward Rutledge, Roger Sherman, James Smith, Richard Stockton, Thomas Stone, George Taylor, Matthew Thorton, George Walton, William Whipple, William Williams, James Wilson, John Witherspoon, Oliver Wolcott, and George Wythe.Listen at your leisure to the amazing Declaration of Independence.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay decide to get high on their days off as they talk about the comedy classic, 'Friday.' Andy starts off the hot summer day by recalling the time he used to cop off an ice cream man, and much like Smokey and Big Worm, he got behind in payments. Then the guys dive in on one of the great hang flicks that perfectly captures the eclectic mix of characters you grow up with in your neighborhood. They reminisce about parents that would lock their kids out, households that would have one of something but never the other, and getting high with your friends while you're unemployed. Of course, the movie is helped by an insane comedy cast that included John Witherspoon that advised "nobody go in that bathroom for about 35, 45 minutes," and an undeniable star-making turn from Chris Tucker. Add in a heaping of hilarious eclectic characters, prime Nia Long, and more quotable lines than the '90s could contain, and you have an endurable film that ages finer than Mrs. Parker in jean shorts. This episode is guaranteed to leave you laughing ... and you know this, mannnn.

Who doesn't love a movie focused on a party?? :) Well when they're done right at least....Animal House, Bachelor Party....and thirty-five years ago, director Reginald Hudlin (Boomerang) made his debut with one of the better ones.  It also starred a hip-hop duo no less, Kid & Play - Christopher Reid and Christopher Martin co-star as two high school friends who just want to rap, dance, and meet girls.  And that pretty much comprises the story of the movie......they just want to have fun along  the two young ladies they have their eyes on, Sydney (Tisha Campbell) and Sharane (AJ Johnson).  The cast also features several comedy legends including Martin Lawrence, John Witherspoon, and the late, great Robin Harris.  Also featuring great music from Full Force....who also co-star as the main villains!Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
