Three days before Sheriff Mickey Stines allegedly walked into Judge Kevin Mullins' chambers and shot him nine times, an attorney contacted the Kentucky Bar Association asking what he could do to intervene. He had already warned Mullins directly. Told him Stines was losing it. The local police chief saw enough to say Stines had lost his mind. Staff inside the sheriff's office watched their boss place phone calls to relatives who had been dead for years. His friends took him to a doctor. The doctor diagnosed acute stress reaction and sent him home. Twenty-four hours later, Kevin Mullins was dead. Court documents reveal the warning signs were everywhere. Witnesses say Stines had not slept in days. He had lost a massive amount of weight. He was convinced unnamed people were going to kill his wife and daughter. He woke his wife at night to whisper because he believed their home was bugged. Coworkers saw it. An attorney saw it. The police chief saw it. Nobody had the power to stop it. Kentucky has no red flag law. Involuntary commitment requires proof of imminent danger, not paranoid delusions, not rapid weight loss, not bizarre behavior. And when the person in crisis is an elected sheriff, no one has the authority to suspend him, disarm him, or override his denials. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us to break down what these behaviors actually mean clinically, what paranoid psychosis looks like, why people miss or dismiss the signs, and whether Stines' insanity defense might hold up in court. The widow's civil lawsuit now asks whether three sheriff's office employees should be held liable for failing to warn Mullins. Their defense: Kentucky law imposed no duty to warn or protect. Everyone did something. It was not enough. #MickeyStines #JudgeKevinMullins #TrueCrime #KentuckySheriff #CourthouseShooting #MentalHealthCrisis #InsanityDefense #WarningSigns #Psychosis #ShavaunScott #RedFlagLaws #TrueCrimeNews #SystemicFailure #LetcherCounty #KentuckyCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #MentalHealthAwareness #CriminalJustice #CourtroomDrama #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Kentucky Sheriff Mickey Stines has admitted in court filings that he shot and killed Judge Kevin Mullins in his chambers on September 19, 2024. Nine bullets. Seven of them fired while the judge was already on the ground. The entire killing was captured on video. But now Stines is claiming he had no control over his actions and his defense team is pointing to a rare neurological disease caused by bug bites as part of their explanation. For over a year, no one could explain why a longtime sheriff walked into a judge's chambers and executed a man he had worked alongside for decades. Stines had served as Mullins' bailiff. They ate lunch together that same day. After a seven-minute private conversation behind closed doors, Stines locked the door and opened fire. Court documents now reveal what was happening in the days before the shooting. Stines had lost forty pounds in two weeks. He was placing phone calls to dead relatives. He told staff that shadowy forces were coming to kill his wife and daughter. He made someone put a bulletproof vest on his wife. His own employees believed he was experiencing psychosis. An attorney warned Judge Mullins directly that Stines was losing it. The local police chief said he had lost his mind. But here is the problem. The day before the shooting, Stines visited a doctor. According to medical records, he denied experiencing any psychosis or homicidal thoughts. The doctor diagnosed acute stress reaction and sent him home. Twenty-four hours later, Kevin Mullins was dead. Now Stines is building an insanity defense that includes claims of California encephalitis, a tick-borne illness that can cause confusion and aggression. Whether this is a legitimate diagnosis or a legal strategy designed to avoid accountability remains to be seen. #MickeyStines #JudgeKevinMullins #LetcherCounty #KentuckySheriff #CourthouseShooting #TrueCrime #InsanityDefense #CaliforniaEncephalitis #TrueCrime2025 #JusticeForMullins #KentuckyCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #CriminalJustice #MurderTrial #LegalDefense #TrueCrimeNews #CourtroomDrama #SheriffShooting #MentalHealthDefense #BreakingCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Mickey Stines just admitted in court filings that he shot and killed Judge Kevin Mullins. Nine bullets. Seven of them fired while the judge was already on the ground. It's all on video. But now Stines is claiming he "had no control" over his actions—and his defense is pointing to a rare neurological disease caused by bug bites as part of the explanation. For over a year, no one could explain why a Kentucky sheriff walked into a judge's chambers and executed a man he'd worked with for decades. They'd eaten lunch together that same day. Stines used to be Mullins' bailiff. And then, after a seven-minute private conversation, Stines locked the door and opened fire. Now court documents reveal what was happening to Stines in the days before the shooting. He'd lost 40 pounds in two weeks. He was making phone calls to dead relatives. He told staff that shadowy forces were coming to kill his wife and daughter. He made someone put a bulletproof vest on his wife. His own employees believed he was in a psychosis. An attorney warned the judge directly that Stines was "losing it." The local police chief said he'd "lost his mind." But here's the problem: the day before the shooting, Stines saw a doctor.

Three days before Sheriff Mickey Stines allegedly walked into Judge Kevin Mullins' chambers and shot him nine times, an attorney contacted the Kentucky Bar Association asking what he could do to intervene. He'd already warned Mullins directly. Told him Stines was "losing it." The local police chief had seen enough to say Stines had "lost his mind." Staff inside the sheriff's office watched their boss make phone calls to relatives who had been dead for years. They got him to a doctor. The doctor sent him home with a diagnosis of "acute stress reaction." Twenty-four hours later, Kevin Mullins was dead. This isn't a story about people who didn't care. It's a story about people who saw a crisis developing, took action within the limits of what they could actually do, and discovered those limits weren't anywhere close to enough. Kentucky has no red flag law. Involuntary commitment requires proof of imminent danger — not paranoid delusions, not rapid weight loss, not bizarre behavior. And when the person in crisis is an elected sheriff, nobody has the authority to suspend him, disarm him, or override his denials. Court documents exposed this week reveal just how many people recognized something catastrophic was happening — and how the systems we've built gave them almost no power to stop it. The widow's civil lawsuit now asks whether three sheriff's office employees should be held liable for failing to warn Judge Mullins. Their defense: Kentucky law imposed no duty to warn or protect. Everyone did something. It wasn't enough. And the gap between "someone should do something" and anyone having the power to actually do it is where Kevin Mullins died. #MickeyStines #JudgeMullins #TrueCrime #KentuckySheriff #CourthouseShooting #MentalHealthCrisis #RedFlagLaws #TrueCrimeNews #SystemicFailure Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

With Us – Week 2: “With Us in Our Fear” Isaiah 41:10–13; Psalm 139:5Fear is something we all know—but Advent meets our fear with a promise: God is with us.In Week 2 of the Advent series With Us, Pastor Kevin looks at what it means to trust God's nearness when anxiety feels loud, circumstances feel fragile, and the future feels uncertain. Through Isaiah's words to a fearful, displaced people and David's prayer in Psalm 139, we see that God's answer to fear is not a pep talk—but His presence.This message reminds us that God does not shout “fear not” from a distance. He comes close, takes us by the hand, strengthens us, helps us, and holds us steady. We are not unseen, unheld, or alone—we are hemmed in by grace.If you're carrying fear about your health, finances, family, or future, this message will help you hear Advent in a deeper way: Immanuel—God with us, even in our fear.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch
For more than a year, this case has haunted a small Kentucky community with one unanswered question: why did Sheriff Mickey Stines walk into Judge Kevin Mullins' chambers and shoot him to death? They'd worked together for years. Stines used to be Mullins' bailiff. They ate lunch together hours before the shooting. None of it made sense. Until now. Exposed court documents have finally revealed what was happening to Mickey Stines in the days before that shooting, and it paints a picture far more disturbing than anyone outside law enforcement knew. According to witness statements and filings from the defense, Stines had lost forty pounds in two weeks and couldn't explain why. He was taking ten breaks during a routine legal deposition, at one point telling the room he was "having an episode." He told a staffer that an attorney had instructed him to hand over money and kill himself, or shadowy forces would murder his wife and daughter. He made someone put a bulletproof vest on his wife. He was placing phone calls to family members who had been dead for years. His own employees watched this happen. One told investigators she believed he was in a psychosis. An attorney warned Judge Mullins directly that Stines was "losing it." The local police chief said he'd lost his mind. And the intervention? They told him to see his family doctor. The next day, Kevin Mullins was dead. Now the judge's widow has filed a lawsuit against Stines and three sheriff's office employees, claiming they watched her husband's killer unravel and failed to warn him. This week, a judge denied Stines' motion to dismiss the murder indictment and granted a bond hearing. For the first time, we're seeing the full picture of what went wrong, who knew, and why no one stopped it. #Letcher County #MickeyStines #JudgeKevinMullins #KentuckySheriff #TrueCrime #CourthouseShooting #TrueCrime2024 #CriminalJustice #MentalHealthCrisis #ShawnStines Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

With Us – Week 1: “Where Are You?” Genesis 3:8–11Advent isn't just about lights, carols, and sentiment—it's about a God who comes looking for people who are hiding. From the very beginning of the Bible, God's footsteps are moving toward us, not away from us.In this first message of our Advent series With Us, Pastor Kevin takes us back to Eden, where Adam and Eve hear the sound of the Lord walking in the garden and then try to disappear among the trees. Instead of storming in with condemnation, God's first words to fallen humanity are a question full of grace: “Where are you?”You'll see how hiding still shows up in our lives—through shame, fear, performance, and withdrawal—and how the heart of God has not changed: He comes near, He calls our name, and He invites us out of the bushes and back into relationship.This message will help you hear Advent in a new way: as the fulfillment of those first footsteps in the garden—God with us in our hiding, our fear, and our distance, moving us toward hope, healing, and Gospel Hospitality.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch

First Things First – Week 2: “Why Should I Tithe?” Mark 10:17–27Money is one of the clearest windows into the human heart. In Week 2 of First Things First, Pastor Kevin teaches on one of the most foundational practices in Scripture: the tithe.Through the story of the rich young ruler, Jeremiah's warning about our hearts, and Malachi's call to return to God, we learn that tithing isn't about losing money—it's about ordering our lives around trust. The tithe brings our finances under God's leadership, breaks the power of fear and self-reliance, and opens us to the freedom of living in God's design.This message helps us understand why the tithe matters, what Scripture actually teaches, and how putting God first transforms more than our giving—it transforms us.Tithing is not about what God wants from you. It's about what God wants for you.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch
This week we launch our new series First Things First, a practical look at trust, priorities, and putting God first—especially when life feels expensive, busy, and uncertain. Pastor Kevin unpacks Jeremiah 17 and the story of Elijah and the widow to show how God's provision often meets us on the other side of obedience. If you're looking for clarity, peace, and a rooted life in a chaotic season, this message will help you choose your source before you face your season.Key Scriptures: Jeremiah 17:5–8; 1 Kings 17:8–16 Speaker: Pastor Kevin Mullins Church: Broad River Church — Norwalk, CT Series: First Things First (Week 1)Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch
When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 5: “The Eternal Kingdom” Revelation 21:1–6, 22:1–5The story doesn't end with destruction—it ends with renewal.In the series finale of When the End Is Really the Beginning, Pastor Kevin unpacks the final vision of Revelation: heaven and earth made one. The Lamb reverses everything Adam lost, and the story that began in a garden ends in a city filled with God's presence.This message reminds us that eternity doesn't start later—it's already forming us now. This life isn't a waiting room for heaven; it's a workshop for reigning.You'll be encouraged to live with the culture of heaven—choosing holiness over compromise, stewardship over selfishness, and worship over worry.The good news of the end times? Of His Kingdom, there will be no end.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch

Baptism Sunday: Grace Gives You a New Address Romans 6:1–11, Revelation 7:13–14Baptism isn't just symbolic—it's a declaration that grace has changed your address.In this special Baptism Sunday message, Pastor Kevin steps out of the Revelation series to show how the same story of redemption, restoration, and renewal continues in the waters of baptism. Drawing from Romans 6 and Revelation 7, this message reveals what happens when grace moves in—guilt loses its power, shame loses its voice, and you begin living from a new location: the country of grace.You'll be reminded that baptism pictures death and resurrection—burial of the old self and rising to new life in Christ. Grace doesn't just forgive; it relocates you. It gives you a new name, a new identity, and a new home.This message will renew your gratitude for God's grace and invite you to live as someone who has truly moved—from guilt to grace, from striving to rest, from death to life.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch
When the sheriff shoots the judge in his own chambers, you know there's more to this story. In this compelling special from STS, Guest Host The COE (Chief of Everything) sits down with Brian Entin — celebrated for his major breaking‑news and true‑crime reporting — to explore the baffling case of a long‑time Kentucky district judge who was fatally shot in his chambers by his former bailiff‑turned‑sheriff. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #trucrime. In this episode, we dive into the murky dealings of this Appalachian small town in Letcher County: allegations that the judge oversaw an illicit s*x‑for‑favors ring; a deputy who pled guilty to abuse of women under home incarceration; a sheriff who may have known too much — or who may himself have been involved in things we don't full understand yet... Listen for exclusive insight, ground reporting, and the chilling truth behind a murder that has shaken a community — and exposed a system supposedly built for justice.Thanks for supporting the show and being a part of #STSNation!

When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 3: “Live Sealed, Not Scared” Revelation 7:1–4, 9–12The seal of the Spirit is stronger than the mark of the beast.In Week 3 of When the End Is Really the Beginning, Pastor Kevin teaches from Revelation 7 and shows how the book of Revelation is not a manual for fear—but a portrait of faith.While many people focus on the “mark of the beast,” Revelation 7 shows us a different picture: God's people sealed by the Spirit. The seal of God is His way of saying, “This one belongs to Me.”This message unpacks the difference between being marked by the world and sealed by the Spirit—between fearful allegiance and faithful belonging. Through Scripture and practical insight, you'll see that the Spirit's seal is not a temporary label but a permanent identity of love and security in Christ.Pastor Kevin reminds us that saints are never described as “marked,” only as “sealed.” When you know who you belong to, you can stand with peace even in chaotic times.This message will strengthen your confidence in the Spirit's power and help you live as a sealed witness for Christ in your home, workplace, and city. The end is not about fear and control—it's about belonging and love. The end is really the beginning.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch
When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 2: “The Lamb Has The Last Word” Revelation 5 and 12:11Revelation doesn't show us chaos first—it shows us Christ.This week, Pastor Kevin continues When the End Is Really the Beginning with one of the most stunning scenes in all of Scripture: the Lion who conquers as the Lamb. In Revelation 5, John weeps because no one can open the scroll—until he hears, “Behold, the Lion of Judah has conquered.” But when he turns, he sees a Lamb, slain but standing. That moment redefines power, showing that victory in God's kingdom comes through sacrifice, not domination.Pastor Kevin also clears up two common misunderstandings—the “antichrist” and the beasts—and shows how Revelation 12:11 gives us a framework for how the Church overcomes today: by the blood of the Lamb, by the word of our testimony, and by lives laid down in love.You'll discover how the Lamb's people are already a multi-ethnic kingdom of priests who carry His presence into ordinary places. And you'll see how “beast-logic” and “Lamb-logic” collide in our everyday lives—at home, at work, online, and in our city.This message will strengthen your faith and remind you that our hope is not in identifying beasts, but in following the Lamb who has already won. The end is not the beasts having the last word; the Lamb has the last word. And the end is really the beginning.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch
When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 1: “The Lamb Wins” Revelation 1:12–18The book of Revelation doesn't begin with beasts, bowls, or fear—it begins with Jesus alive and reigning.This week, Pastor Kevin launches a brand-new series from the book of Revelation called When the End Is Really the Beginning. In a world filled with anxiety about the “end times,” this message brings clarity instead of confusion and faith instead of fear. Revelation was never written to make believers panic; it was written to make us faithful.Through this opening vision of the risen Christ—eyes like fire, voice like rushing waters, holding the keys of death and Hades—we discover that Revelation isn't about decoding puzzles; it's about revealing Jesus.You'll learn how to approach this mysterious book with humility, Scripture-based discernment, and hope. Pastor Kevin reminds us that the Gospel shapes our view of the end: fear-based eschatology paralyzes, but faith-based eschatology mobilizes.This message will help you lift your eyes from speculation to the Savior who says, “Fear not. I am the First and the Last.” The end isn't doom—it's renewal. The Lamb wins. The end is really the beginning.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch
MOVE – Week 10: “Finish Well” Acts 20:17–38What does it take to finish well?In Acts 20:17–38, Paul shares a farewell message with the Ephesian elders, showing us that the Gospel doesn't just need people who start strong—it needs disciples who endure to the end.This week, Pastor Kevin closes out the MOVE series by pointing us to three anchors that help us keep moving: Jesus at the center, the Spirit's leading even when it costs, and a love for the Church that Jesus bought with His own blood.This message will encourage you to see how God still moves through consecrated lives—not just the celebrated ones. If Paul could finish his course with joy, we can too. The Gospel is still moving in Lower Fairfield County, and God is calling us to be a church that doesn't just start… but finishes well.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch
MOVE – Week 9: “The Breakthrough in Antioch”Acts 11:19–30 and 12:25–13:3God's breakthrough in Antioch shows us that the Gospel doesn't just move through the famous names—it moves through ordinary people who say yes.This week in Acts 11:19–30 and 12:25–13:3, Pastor Kevin walks us through a turning point in the book of Acts. In a diverse and broken city, God plants the first multi-ethnic church. And it doesn't start with Peter, Paul, or Barnabas—it starts with unnamed believers who dared to cross cultural lines with the good news of Jesus.The Gospel has power all by itself. It tears down walls, creates new identity, and calls people into mission. Barnabas arrives to encourage, the Spirit speaks, and Antioch becomes a launchpad for global Gospel movement.This message will encourage you to see how God still moves today—through the consecrated, not the celebrated. If He can use ordinary men and women in Antioch, He can use you right here in Lower Fairfield County. Say yes, break barriers, and step into a missional vision that changes lives.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch
MOVE: Week 8 — When Everything Changes Acts 9:1–22 | Pastor Kevin MullinsIn Acts 9, we meet Saul—a man convinced he was doing everything right, only to be stopped in his tracks by the risen Jesus. In a single moment, Saul's life shifted from hostility to hope, from persecutor to preacher. His story reminds us that when Jesus shows up, everything changes.In this message, Pastor Kevin unpacks the four elements of Saul's conversion—and how they point to what happens when any heart truly encounters Jesus:Encounter that stops you — God breaks in right where you are.Dependence that changes you — learning surrender in the dark.Embrace that restores you — community and welcome before you've “proven” anything.Empowerment that sends you — the Spirit turning you from brokenness to purpose.The Gospel doesn't just give information—it moves you. And like Saul, your story can be interrupted by grace and released into a Spirit-empowered future.Broad River Church | Norwalk, CT Join us Sundays: 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM (English) | 12:45 PM (Español) Learn more or take your next step: https://broadriver.church/nextsteps Follow us on Instagram: @iambroadriverchurch

Judge Kevin Mullins EXPOSED: S-for-Favors Scandal REVEALED The murder of Judge Kevin Mullins by Sheriff Shawn Stines didn't end the story — it blew the lid off a scandal. In the weeks after, women stepped forward with disturbing allegations: that Judge Mullins coerced them into sexual acts in exchange for leniency, avoiding jail, or even custody of their children. One woman, Tia Adams, told reporter Brian Entin she had sex with Mullins “countless times,” sometimes in his chambers. She described the encounters as humiliating, impossible to refuse, and driven by fear of retaliation. According to her, this wasn't intimacy — it was coercion, disguised as consent. Lawsuits and interviews allege that humiliation was part of the judge's strategy. Victims claimed Mullins threw money at them, degraded them, and warned them to stay silent. The allegations suggest the courthouse wasn't just corrupted — it was weaponized. In this episode, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott helps break down the psychology of coercion, trauma bonding, and why victims often doubt themselves after years of abuse. We also examine how communities normalize silence, how victims experience relief when an abuser dies, and why power unchecked becomes exploitation. None of these allegations have been proven in court, but they raise urgent questions about how justice can survive when the judge himself is accused of being the predator. #JudgeMullins #SexForFavors #ScandalExposed #TrueCrime #SheriffStines #HiddenKillers #Corruption #Coercion #VictimsSpeak #Whitesburg Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week on Crime Roundup, Sheryl McCollum and Joshua Schiffer dive into an explosive scandal out of rural Kentucky, where the murder of Judge Kevin Mullins has exposed a hidden world of courthouse corruption, sex-for-favors, and alleged misconduct at nearly every level of the local justice system. With reports of mirrored ceilings, sex parties, and jailhouse encounters involving law enforcement and officials, the hosts examine how deep the cover-up may run and what accountability looks like. They then turn to Bryan Kohberger, who has filed harassment complaints from inside a maximum-security prison. Sheryl and Joshua break down what those complaints reveal about prison power dynamics, the threat of extortion, and the likelihood of long-term solitary confinement.

The Principle of First Genesis 1:1 | Pastor Kevin Mullins & Justin ReyesHow do you begin again with God? In this message kicking off 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting, Pastor Kevin and Justin Reyes walk us through the “Principle of First”—a biblical rhythm that reshapes everything when we live it out.From Genesis to Jesus, God has always been a "first things first" kind of God. When we give Him the first of our time, our thoughts, our finances, and our worship, we're not performing—we're positioning. This message challenges us to reorder our lives around what (and who) matters most, offering practical ways to live a first-fruit kind of faith in every season.Whether you're starting fresh or seeking to realign, this word will inspire you to go all in—because when you put God first, He blesses the rest.
MOVE: Week 7 — “Go Where the Spirit Sends” Acts 8:26–40 | Pastor Kevin MullinsWhat if your next assignment from God doesn't make sense on paper? In this message, Pastor Kevin unpacks the story of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch—a powerful reminder that the Gospel moves through obedience, not convenience. Sometimes the Spirit leads us off the beaten path so we can meet the one. When we follow God's prompting—even into the wilderness—we discover divine appointments, surprising conversations, and fresh opportunities to speak the good news of Jesus.Whether you feel stuck, scattered, or stirred, this message will encourage you to stay open to where the Spirit is sending you next.
Text: Acts 4:32–5:11; Exodus 36; Leviticus 25; Isaiah 55; John 17Title: “What Can Stop a Move of God?”When revival moves, it's not just the world that notices—hell notices too. In this message, we explore how Spirit-filled community can be corrupted from within through pride, hypocrisy, and false appearances. We look at the radical generosity of the early church and contrast it with the deception of Ananias and Sapphira. Along the way, we trace God's vision for generosity from Eden to the cross and ask hard questions about financial idolatry, spiritual performance, and carrying God's name in vain. If you've ever wondered what can stop a move of God—this message shows you how it starts…and how to stop it from happening in you.
This week, Pastor Kevin brings a powerful message from Luke 15:1–10 that places Serve Day in the larger rhythm of our year of Gospel Hospitality. We're reminded that hospitality isn't a personality trait—it's a Gospel command. As we prepare to step outside our red doors, this sermon calls us to join the search party with Jesus, who welcomes the lost and rejoices when they are found.Through stories, scripture, and challenge, we're invited to serve with strategy, love with intention, and remember the grace that first found us. This isn't just about volunteering—it's about reaching. Because every lost thing has value. And every welcome echoes the one we've already received in Christ.
Texts: Acts 4:18–31; Psalm 2; Isaiah 55; This week, we find Peter and John under pressure—commanded by powerful authorities to stop speaking the name of Jesus. But instead of shrinking back, they say: “We cannot help but speak.” What gives ordinary people that kind of courage? In this message, we explore how Spirit-filled boldness isn't about hype or personality—it's about a life aligned with heaven. As the early church prays, the room shakes, and the Spirit fills them again. If you've ever faced fear, silence, or spiritual pressure, this message is for you. Boldness begins in prayer—and the world still needs your voice.
Texts: Acts 3:1–10, Acts 4:13, Isaiah 36:6 In Week 3 of our MOVE series, Pastor Kevin preaches from Acts 3:1–10, where Peter and John encounter a man stuck at the temple gate—paralyzed, overlooked, and surviving but not truly living. This message reminds us that the Gospel doesn't begin with a sermon or a platform. It begins with a look. A reach. A movement toward brokenness.God still moves through ordinary people who choose Spirit-led obedience—who refuse to walk past pain and instead bring the power of Jesus into everyday places.When we reach, people rise. And when people rise, the world begins to believe again.
Texts: Acts 2:14–41; Joel 2:28–32; Psalm 16; Romans 10:13This week, we follow Peter—the same man who once denied Jesus—now standing with boldness and clarity, proclaiming the Gospel to thousands. What changed? The Holy Spirit moved in, and Peter moved forward. In this message, we explore how Spirit-filled speech isn't about eloquence—it's about obedience. We see how God gives us words that cut through confusion, call people to repentance, and carry the hope of salvation. If you've ever felt unqualified to speak for God, this message is for you. The Spirit has something to say—through you.
"In each place I have travelled, I have used my camera as an extension of my memory." -- Teju Cole "In photography and in life, always look for the light, if you don't see it, bring it." John Waire In this episode, Antonio records from Brooklyn for the last time before his big move to Nebraska. It's a reflective and unscripted conversation, touching on the chaos of packing, the emotional weight of leaving, and a perfectly timed rainbow that showed up outside his window. He and Ward talk about the kind of weather that begs to be photographed and how certain visual moments trigger memories of past images—like Ernst Haas' dramatic skies. Antonio also shares how instant photography is playing a bigger role in his life lately, especially with the Polaroid and Instax cameras he's bringing on the road trip west. Ward recounts how he unexpectedly became the unofficial wedding photographer at a recent event, armed only with a Fuji XS20 and a 23mm lens. What was supposed to be a casual favor turned into a full-on assignment, and he reflects on how his street photography instincts kicked in to help him adapt. They also talk about the overlap between documentary and wedding photography, the influence of photographers like Kevin Mullins and Mel DiGiacomo, and how shooting in a “real life” environment brings out surprising results. There's also a bit of Fujifilm gear talk, some thoughts on photo printing with Polaroid's phone-based printer, and the occasional side trip into DIY diffuser hacks using deli containers.

Text: Acts 1:1–11; Acts 2:1–4; Jeremiah 31; Ezekiel 36; Joel 2; Luke 11 Pentecost isn't the end of the story—it's the ignition. In this opening message of our new series MOVE, Pastor Kevin Mullins invites us into the unstoppable, Spirit-filled movement that began in Acts and continues through us today. The early Church didn't run on good intentions—they ran on power from on high.This message explores:The five-act story of Scripture and where we fit inThe promise and purpose of Pentecost powerWhy we don't just read Acts—we live ActsThe gift of the Holy Spirit: power, transformation, and new desireHow to move from maintenance to mission—from fear to fireIf you've ever felt tired, stuck, or spiritually numb—this message is your invitation to ask, wait, open… and pray the ancient prayer: Come, Holy Spirit.God has more. Not for hype—but for holiness. Not for a moment—but for mission. Not for applause—but for power.

The Judge, The Sheriff, and the Chamber of Secrets The former sheriff says he didn't murder the judge—his mind did. That's the opening line now being argued in a Kentucky courtroom, where former Letcher County Sheriff Shawn “Mickey” Stines stands accused of shooting and killing District Judge Kevin Mullins inside his chambers. This wasn't some cold, calculated act, his defense insists—it was a mental break, triggered by fear, stress, and a small-town scandal that just might make your jaw hit the floor. Let's get one thing straight up front: the entire incident was caught on video. Stines walked into Judge Mullins' office and fired eight shots. That much is undisputed. But what followed is where things get messy—and deeply unsettling. Stines has pleaded not guilty, and now his attorney, Jeremy Bartley, is laying the groundwork for an insanity defense, saying the ex-sheriff suffered from a mental disease or defect, and was also under "extreme emotional disturbance" when he pulled the trigger. Basically, the defense isn't arguing about what happened—it's arguing about why. And that “why” has roots in something dark. A few days before the shooting, Stines gave a deposition in a case involving one of his former deputies, Ben Fields. That guy? He'd been accused of coercing female inmates into sex—in exchange for staying out of jail. Think "Orange is the New Black," but way less scripted and way more disturbing. One of the accusers, Sabrina Adkins, claimed that she was forced to have sex with Fields for six months… inside the judge's chambers. Yeah, the same room where the murder would later take place. According to Bartley, Stines' deposition forced him to answer some very uncomfortable questions about all of it. And afterward, the sheriff allegedly felt like his entire world was closing in—that his testimony had painted a target on his back. He supposedly feared that the fallout from the deposition would threaten not just his job or reputation, but the lives of his wife and daughter. That's not just legal strategy fluff, either. When police arrested Stines after the shooting, he reportedly shouted: “They're trying to kidnap my wife and kid!” Clearly, in his mind, something had gone very, very wrong. It's worth noting that the judge, Kevin Mullins, wasn't just some random guy in a robe to Stines. They were close—friends, even. They'd known each other since 2009, when Stines served as Mullins' courtroom bailiff. Over the years, they became lunch buddies, often grabbing wings at the Streetside Grill & Bar down the street from the courthouse. On the day Mullins died, the two had lunch together—same order, same table, same casual vibe. Then, hours later, Stines entered his office and shot him. Prosecutors say the shooting seemed to come out of nowhere. But now investigators are digging into another possible motive: jealousy or betrayal. It's been suggested that Stines may have seen his daughter's phone number in Mullins' phone, which allegedly sent him into a tailspin. Surveillance footage shows Stines trying to call his daughter from his phone—and then using the judge's phone, too. What exactly he saw on that screen remains unclear, but the implication is that whatever he discovered set him off. CCTV from the courthouse showed Mullins raising his hands in fear, hiding behind his desk, as Stines raised his gun. The whole thing, horrifying as it is, unfolded in seconds. But it was built on years of what the defense claims was accumulating psychological pressure. Now, Stines' legal team is leaning hard into the mental health defense. They say they'll present expert evidence showing that he wasn't legally responsible for his actions. Bartley says there's even more evidence out there—though he's keeping it close to the chest for now—that could prove Stines' state of mind was so fractured, he shouldn't be held criminally liable. Meanwhile, the larger scandal casts a long shadow. The sex-for-favors scheme tied to Deputy Fields and possibly Judge Mullins has not gone away. Accuser Sabrina Adkins didn't just name Fields—she claimed Mullins had videotapes of “sexual stuff” happening in his chambers. Mullins never responded to the allegations before his death, and the tapes, if they exist, haven't surfaced publicly. Fields, for what it's worth, was fired by Stines before being arrested and sentenced to six months behind bars. But that did little to erase the cloud of controversy over the courthouse—and now, it's all tangled up in a murder trial. So here we are: a former sheriff who says he lost his grip on reality, a respected judge dead in his own office, and a community unraveling under the weight of buried secrets. What started as a tight-knit town's tragic loss has become a psychological crime drama no one saw coming—and no one will forget. #LetcherCounty #KevinMullins #ShawnStines #CourthouseScandal Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
