In this powerful continuation of the "Cultural Kids or Kids That Count" series, Pastor Jim delivers practical wisdom for raising children who can thrive in today's challenging culture, focusing on four essential gifts parents must give their children: a consistent Christian example that demonstrates integrity and stability (especially through strong marriages), unconditional love that accepts without affirming sin while providing truth and appropriate consequences, biblical wisdom that teaches children to ask "What does the Bible say?" when facing decisions, and genuine encouragement that builds character over performance. Through personal stories, biblical insights, and real-world applications, this message equips parents, grandparents, and anyone involved in shaping young lives with the tools to create resilient, faith-filled children who can navigate an increasingly difficult world while maintaining their Christian values and finding their identity in Christ rather than cultural approval.

Overcoming deception in these last days. Continue building your spiritual defenses against deception! In Part 2 of "I Can See Clearly Now," Pastor Jim Frease shifts from identifying deception to arming you with truth. Discover 12 powerful "truth tidbits" that will anchor your faith in reality rather than feelings or cultural pressure. This message exposes a dangerous cultural trend where people use a reinvented "Jesus" to reinterpret Scripture instead of using Scripture to understand who Jesus really is. You'll learn why truth doesn't change based on how you feel about it, the critical difference between subjective preferences and objective reality, and how to balance both mercy and truth in your daily walk. This teaching will revolutionize how you handle spiritual pressure! Pastor Jim addresses real-world examples of how even well-meaning Christians can compromise biblical truth when faced with cultural backlash. You'll discover why following the truth wherever it leads - even when uncomfortable - is essential for spiritual maturity. Learn the vital difference between reading your own ideas into Scripture versus letting Scripture speak for itself. Most importantly, you'll understand how Jesus purposefully tied Himself to Scripture to prevent every generation from reinventing Him according to their preferences. Don't miss this essential follow-up that equips you with practical tools to stand firm in truth during these challenging times!

In this candid message, he tackles one of the most challenging topics facing marriages today with such warmth, transparency, and joyful humor that you'll find yourself both laughing and deeply convicted.

Whether you're newlyweds, struggling in your relationship, or wanting to affair-proof your future, this message offers biblical wisdom wrapped in relatable humor and real-life stories from Pastor Jim's 34-year marriage.
