Would you die for your faith?It's a question most Christians avoid—but one Jesus never softened.In this episode of Truth Behind the Mike, Mike Stone challenges believers to confront the real cost of following Jesus.We live in a culture where faith is often comfortable—but what happens when it isn't?What happens when following Christ costs you your reputation… your relationships… your career… or even your life?Using both Scripture and real-world examples, this episode explores:* The difference between cultural Christianity and true discipleship* Where modern believers tend to “draw the line”* Why Jesus called us to take up our cross—not just believe* How recent events are forcing people to rethink what faith really meansThis isn't about fear.It's not about politics.It's about one question:Is your faith real… if it only exists when it's safe?⸻If this challenged you, share it with someone who needs to hear it.Subscribe to Truth Behind the Mike for more bold, biblical conversations that encourage, challenge, and point you to Jesus.#Faith #Christianity #Jesus #Discipleship #Truth #Bible #ChristianYouTube #FaithInAction #followjesus TIME-STAMPED CHAPTER LIST:00:00 — Would You Die for Your Faith?

Why does the Bible say “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom”—yet the fear of God is rarely talked about in modern Christianity?In this episode of the Behind the Mike Podcast, Mike Stone explores the biblical meaning of the fear of the Lord, why this foundational truth has faded from many churches, and what happens to faith and culture when reverence for God disappears.Through scripture, historical examples, and practical insight, this message examines the tension between God's holiness and God's love and why rediscovering the fear of the Lord may be essential for spiritual renewal.Topics explored in this video:• What the fear of the Lord actually means• Why modern culture resists the idea of fearing God• How losing the fear of God affects the church• Biblical examples of encountering the holiness of God• Why reverence for God leads to wisdom and transformationIf you're seeking a deeper understanding of scripture and a stronger foundation for your faith, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.SUBSCRIBE for more biblical teaching and faith-based conversations.#fearofthelord #FearOfGod#BiblicalTruth#ChristianFaith#ChristianPodcast#BibleTeaching#ChristianWorldview#faithingod Time-Stamped Chapters0:00 - Why Don't We Fear God Anymore?0:39 - The Fear of the Lord Is the Beginning of Wisdom1:12 - A Powerful Story About Reverence for God2:31 - What Happens When People Truly Fear God3:52 - What the Bible Says About the Fear of the Lord5:11 - Peter's Reaction to Jesus' Power6:27 - Why Modern Christianity Avoids the Fear of God7:40 - What Happens When a Society Stops Fearing God8:58 - A Moment of Personal Reflection10:27 - Why the Fear of the Lord Still Matters11:50 - How Christians Can Recover Reverence for God13:24 - One Final Question About Your LifeSend a textSupport the showWatch these podcasts on YouTube!Follow Us!YouTube: @behindthemikepodcastInstagram: @behindthemikepodcastTikTok: @behind_the_mike_podcastFacebook: @behindthemikepodcast

Iowa Senator ADRIAN DICKEY tells SIMON about SF2284 that passed the Senate today and then he talks to MIKE STONE of Michigan who attends the Temple Israel synagogue that was attacked by an armed man while filled with preschool children.

During the recent State of the Union, something stood out — not because of policy, but because of how we respond to moral issues in our culture.When did we stop calling evil… evil?In this video, we examine Isaiah 5:20, Romans 1, and the growing moral confusion in modern culture. This isn't about politics. It's about discernment. It's about truth. It's about whether Christians still have the courage to call right “right” and wrong “wrong.”Have we traded conviction for comfort?Have we allowed popularity to define goodness?Have we stopped testing everything through Scripture?Let's wrestle with it together.

The Cavs are a serious contender and a potential juggernaut in the East, but what does the rest of the field look like? Ken and Anthony turn to Mike Stone from 97.1 The Ticket in Detroit to talk Pistons and Brian Barrett from Boston's The Ringer to give insight on the Celtics and how well the Cavs matchup.

Most people think spiritual danger looks like rebellion. But Jesus warned about something far more subtle — and far more dangerous.This video explores what the Bible says about lukewarm faith, spiritual drift, and how believers slowly lose passion for God without realizing it.In Revelation 3, Jesus delivers one of His strongest warnings to the church — a warning about becoming spiritually lukewarm. But what does lukewarm Christianity really mean? And why is spiritual indifference often more dangerous than outright rebellion?In this message, we talk about:• The slow fade of faith• How believers drift from God without noticing• The warning signs of spiritual complacency• Why lukewarm faith is so dangerous• How Jesus lovingly calls drifting hearts back to HimIf you've ever felt spiritually dry, distracted, or stuck going through religious routines without passion, this message will help you recognize the warning signs and rediscover spiritual fire.⸻

What happens when God intervenes at the last possible moment? In this powerful episode of Truth Behind the Mike with Mike Stone, Christian journalist Mark Ellis (GodReports.com) shares jaw-dropping true stories of faith, survival, and eternity.Mark has spent 25 years collecting real, verified testimonies of God at work—from the only known survivor inside the 9/11 impact zone, to an atheist professor who encountered hell during a near-death experience, to an astronaut who met Jesus on the moon.These aren't emotional exaggerations. They're documented encounters that point to one undeniable truth: God is near, active, and still changing lives today.

It seems like every few weeks, another Christian leader falls—and many believers are left confused, discouraged, or even mocked for their faith.In this episode of Behind the Mike Podcast, Mike & Joshua Stone slow the conversation down and ask a deeper question: Why does this keep happening—and what does it reveal about where our faith is anchored?This is not a reaction video.This is not about piling on fallen leaders.And this is not about abandoning Christianity.Instead, we talk honestly about:• Why gifting is not the same as godliness• Why public platforms often hide private struggles• Why Christian celebrity culture is leaving people spiritually disoriented• And how to build a faith that survives disappointment, hypocrisy, and failureIf recent stories have left you wondering whether Christianity itself can be trusted—or if your faith feels shaken by the failures of others—this conversation is for you.Christianity was never built on impressive people.It was built on an unchanging Savior.Chapters:00:00 – Why So Many Christian Leaders Are FallingThe exhaustion, grief, and questions believers are feeling right now00:26 – Is It Okay to Feel Shaken in Your Faith?Why doubt after scandal doesn't mean weak faith00:50 – The Real Problem Behind Church ScandalsWhat we build our faith on before leaders fall01:17 – A College Student's Perspective on Church HypocrisyWhy this generation sees things differently01:55 – When Christian Failures Go PublicWhy repeated scandals damage trust and fuel mockery02:49 – The Stage Is Not the SoulPublic ministry vs. private faithfulness03:38 – When a Pastor Falls, People Lose Their FaithWhy many believers were never taught where faith belongs04:48 – Mentors vs. Messiahs in ChristianityWhy following people too closely can wreck faith06:04 – Why God's Word Will Never Fail YouScripture vs. celebrity Christianity07:16 – A Bible College Story That Changed EverythingWhen powerful preaching didn't match real-life character08:43 – How Christian Hypocrisy Hurts the Church's WitnessWhat unbelievers actually see when Christians fail09:32 – Spiritual Talk vs. Spiritual MaturityWhy holiness shows up under pressure, not on stage10:28 – What Young Christians Are Really Seeing TodayFaith, stress, and everyday behavior outside church11:47 – Why Putting Faith in People Always FailsEven well-meaning leaders will let you down12:55 – How Leaders Drift Before Moral FailureIsolation, secrecy, and success without accountability13:39 – Why Accountability Matters in the Christian LifeFaith was never meant to be lived alone14:53 – How Christians Should Respond When Leaders FallTruth, humility, and refusing to panic15:48 – Christianity Doesn't Collapse When Leaders FailWhy Jesus—not pastors—is the foundation16:18 – Where Your Faith Must Be AnchoredWhy CSend us a textSupport the showWatch these podcasts on YouTube!Follow Us!YouTube: @behindthemikepodcastInstagram: @behindthemikepodcastTikTok: @behind_the_mike_podcastFacebook: @behindthemikepodcast

It feels like everything is offensive now, and outrage is everywhere.Disagreement feels dangerous.Conversations feel tense.And outrage feels like the default response to almost everything.Most people sense something has changed—but they struggle to explain why.In this episode of Behind the Mike, we step back and look at what's happening beneath the surface. Not from a political angle. Not from an outrage-driven angle. But from a biblical and human one.This is a thoughtful conversation with Mike Stone about what happens when a culture slowly loses moral grounding, how outrage fills the vacuum, and why disagreement now feels personal and threatening. We'll explore human nature, cultural shifts, and Scripture—not to scold, but to understand.In this video, we talk about:• Why outrage thrives in fragile belief systems• What replaces God when He's removed from the center• Why identity and desire became sacred• Why disagreement feels like hatred today• How outrage replaces grace• What Scripture says about truth, worship, and confusion• Why God's Word must be something bigger than ourselves• A calmer, rooted, Christ-centered way forwardThis isn't about winning arguments.It's about being grounded in a world that feels increasingly fragile.

As we step toward 2026, many Christians are trying to build a new year on an old foundation. In this powerful final episode of 2025, Mike Stone reveals three spiritual anchors you must leave behind if you want to walk fully in God's purpose—regret, comparison, and comfort.Drawing from Scripture, including Genesis 19, John 21, Isaiah 43, and Lamentations 3, this episode challenges believers to stop living as pillars of salt—preserved in the past—and start moving forward in obedience. Learn the difference between conviction and condemnation, why comparison is spiritually dangerous, and how comfort quietly kills growth.If you're longing for a fresh start, clarity in God's will, or freedom from what's been holding you back, this message is for you. God isn't waiting for January 1st to do something new—He's waiting for you to let go.

Comparison rarely shouts — it whispers. And when it does, it quietly steals something precious: your joy.In this powerful episode of Behind the Mike Podcast with Mike Stone, we dive deep into why comparison is so dangerous for believers, how subtly it creeps into our faith, and how Jesus directly confronts it in Scripture.Have you ever been faithful… obedient… committed to Christ — yet wondered why someone else's life looks easier, more fruitful, or more blessed?You're not alone.Through a personal story, biblical insight, and one of the most revealing moments between Jesus and Peter, this episode exposes how comparison:

Cunningham reveals the inspiration, historical accuracy, and behind-the-scenes challenges of Kevin Costner Presents: The First Christmas — premiering Tuesday, December 9th at 8 PM ET on ABC.This isn't the westernized version of Christmas.This is the REAL world Mary and Joseph walked through — politically dangerous, culturally complex, and full of courage, faith, and hope.

Hypocrisy in the Church has quietly destroyed more faith than atheism, suffering, or doubt.In this episode of Behind the Mike Podcast, Mike Stone speaks directly to anyone who has been hurt, betrayed, disappointed, or wounded by Christians, pastors, spiritual leaders, or church culture.If someone's sin shook your faith… maybe your faith was standing on them instead of Christ.

Modern Christianity is popular…but often hollow.Jesus offered living water, yet today many believers feel thin, fragile, emotional, and spiritually inconsistent. Why?In this powerful episode of Behind the Mike Podcast with Mike Stone, we walk boldly into one of the most important conversations happening in the Church today—how our faith culture traded depth for convenience, discipleship for consumption, and transformation for emotional experience.This message is firm, loving, and grounded in Scripture. If you've ever looked around and wondered, “How did we get here?”—this episode is for you.

Have you ever dealt with someone who twists every story, demands control, and always plays the victim?

Do you ever look back on your life and think, “God could never use me”? Maybe it's because of something you said, did, or became. But here's the truth — the Bible isn't a story of perfect people doing great things for God. It's a story of a perfect God doing great things through broken people.In this episode of Behind The Mike Podcast with Mike Stone, Mike shares a powerful message of redemption and grace — showing how God used liars, doubters, adulterers, rebels, and even murderers to accomplish His purposes. From Adam and Eve to Paul, every one of them had a past… and every one of them was still used by God.If you've ever felt unworthy, ashamed, or “too far gone,” this episode will remind you:

What if Bible characters had iPhones and could text each other in a group chat?

What does it really mean to put your faith in Jesus?In this episode of Behind the Mike Podcast with Mike Stone, we go beyond clichés and dig into the heart of faith.

America is at a crossroads. In this powerful episode of Behind the Mike Podcast with Mike Stone, Mike delivers a bold message: we don't just need revival—we need repentance.From Charlie Kirk's tragic death to the cultural chaos we see daily, the signs are clear: Satan is working overtime to fracture families, weaken the church, and destroy a nation.

In this episode of the Behind the Mike Podcast, host Mike Stone discusses a letter written to the CEO of Cracker Barrel about its recent logo change and the deeper meaning behind it. Mike explains that while the man in the letter was missing the feeling of "home" the old logo provided, his longing points to a universal human need for something real and rooted.

What do you do when God feels silent? On Holy Saturday, we sit in the in-between — after the cross but before the resurrection. It's a day of silence, grief, and waiting. But silence doesn't mean absence.In today's Passion Week devotional, Mike Stone shares a powerful message about trusting God in the waiting.
