He helped build one of the biggest Christian bands of the 1990s, toured America with a dream of using music to point people to Jesus — and at the height of it all, watched his marriage, his family, his ministry, and his life fall apart. John James, the original lead singer of Newsboys, joins Brian From to talk about his memoir Newsboy: My Story of Hope and Second Chances. He's honest about what fame actually does to a person over time — not overnight destruction, but a slow distortion of reality, a quiet disconnection from the vine, and the gradual exposure of whatever cracks were already in the foundation. He's also honest about what it took to come back: returning to Australia, bitter and broken, riddled with shame, going to church only out of obligation — until one day he encountered God in a way that changed everything. His message to anyone who feels too far gone to be reached: if God could find me in that mess, there is no one He can't reach.

A new Lifeway study finds that 76% of American Christians believe God wants them to prosper financially — and among younger churchgoers, that number climbs to 85%. The prosperity gospel didn't die with the TV preachers. It just got quieter, more therapeutic, and harder to recognize. Brian From unpacks why that matters and how to spot it. Then: June is Pride Month, and Brian pushes back on both the combative Christian response and the capitulating one — asking instead what it would look like for the church to be genuinely known as a friend of sinners, the way Jesus was. Should Christians flip tables like Jesus? A careful look at what scripture actually encourages us to imitate — and it isn't anger. A meditation on the "I am the Good Shepherd" declaration from John 10, and what it means that Jesus sleeps at the gate. A reflection on John James of the Newsboys and the message of his story for anyone who feels like they're on God's discard pile. Samaritan's Purse opening an Ebola field hospital in Congo. Church sign puns. And a closing word from Psalm 121: He who keeps you will not slumber.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A musical message from Paul Coleman of The Newsboys

On today's program, Newsboys co-founder Wes Campbell and the band's musicians are suing multiple defendants for defamation related to stories about former lead singer Michael Tait. Defendants include World Vision, MercyMe, and reporter Julie Roys. We'll have details. Plus, police uncovered a multi-year fraud scheme that siphoned more than $3.8 million from a church in New York. We look at lessons churches can take away from this case. And, a new report shows that church attendance is up for the first time in decades. The growth is not enough to erase earlier declines—but it is noteworthy. We'll take a look. But first, another vendor is suing Benny Hinn Ministries for unpaid bills. For years, Benny Hinn Ministries has struggled to pay its debts. Now, another one of its creditors has taken legal action. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth. Writers who contributed to today's program include Tony Mator, Kim Roberts, Jessica Eturralde, Stacey Horton, Erik Tryggestad, Bob Smietana, and Makella Knowles. A special thanks to The Christian Chronicle for contributing material for this week's podcast.

The Newsboys, led by owner Wes Campbell, have filed a sweeping lawsuit against The Roys Report and others, alleging a conspiracy to damage their career after Michael Tait's misdeeds were exposed. Host Julie Roys is joined by attorney Christine Jones and journalist Jessica Morris to unpack the claims—and what comes next.

And is there still hope for those who fall? Today, I have John James, founding member and former lead singer of the Newsboys, to talk about his new book: Newsboy, the failures and fractures inside Christian platform culture, and the redemption God brought through his lowest moments.

The Newsboys shaped the landscape of 1990s CCM as much as any artist of that era, but the price of success took its toll on John James, ultimately leading to an incredible story of redemption and a second chance to fulfill his calling.

Steve Taylor (the one and only) checks in to discuss Sketch, his latest film production (in conjunction with writer Seth Worley and starring actor Tony Hale). We also touch on Steve's musical career including his classic "Meltdown (At Madame Tussaud's)", artists he has written for/produced, and the influence of his dad and mom. Tim grew up loving Steve's brand of alternative/punk rock--full of energy & witty lyrics, packed with meaning and way ahead of their time--frequently tackling difficult subjects head-on, challenging people (often the within the church) without making himself the center of attention, if such a thing is possible. Examples include "I Want To Be A Clone," "(We Don't Need No) Color Code," "Lifeboat," "I Blew Up The Clinic Real Good," "What Is The Measure of Your Success?," and "Bannerman," among a trove of others. Taylor also directed many music videos for his songs (and other artists) and wrote/collaborated with a number of artists including newsboys. As a record label executive, he was very involved with Chevelle, Leigh Bingham Nash & Sixpence None The Richer (including their worldwide smash "Kiss Me", Burlap to Cashmere & L.A. Symphony. Taylor has also performed in other bands including Chagall Guevara, and invested years of his life as a filmmaker including "The Second Chance" (with Rev Jeff Obafemi Carr & Michael W. Smith) and with "Blue Like Jazz," an adaption of Donald Miller's book.

En julio de 1899, cientos de jóvenes repartidores de prensa en Nueva York, conocidos como “newsboys”, iniciaron una huelga contra los poderosos diarios New York World y The Journal. Rechazaban que los periódicos ele­varan el precio de compra sin permitir devolución de ejemplares no vendidos. El movimiento paralizó la distribución. Tras dos semanas de protestas, los periódicos cedieron: aceptaron recomprar los papeles no vendidos. Aunque no lograron revertir totalmente el precio, su acción cambió las reglas del juego y marcó un hito en la historia del trabajo infantil y la lucha laboral.

A controversy has been stirring in the Christian music world after Forrest Frank announced that he felt convicted by the Lord not to attend the Dove Awards, an event many see as the Grammys of Christian music. His decision sparked quite a reaction, especially from country star Jelly Roll who seemed to take unction to Frank's conviction. And while Jelly Roll delivered an emotional, faith filled speech at the Dove Awards, a different version of him showed up just a few days later in front of Michigan football fans, this appearance raises serious questions about his authenticity and public faith. Today, we'll take a closer look at what's happening across the contemporary Christian music scene, with Maverick City Music marred in a lawsuit from former members and the former Newsboys frontman Michael Tait having tapes released of his apology to people he took advantage of, leaving many wondering what is going on in the CCM world and has it always been rife with hypocrisy, lies and wickedness?   Follow Good Fight Ministries on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/goodfightministries Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodfightministries Twitter/X: https://www.twitter.com/goodfightmin TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@goodfightministries Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/goodfight   We're on Rumble! https://rumble.com/GoodFightMinistries

Hey, Neighbor! Hand things to babies when you want them to fling them to the floor. Next, congratulations to the protesters for braving the flood and keeping all the kings away from America. Later, Michael Tate of the Newsboys issued a public apologiy for grievous sin. Why do we keep getting surprised by celebrity culture producing these sorts of scandals? In a similar vein, what would cause a teenager to tag along with his irresponsible buddies on spring break to Panama City? Maybe it's the same lack-of-thought when a boy makes a pass at a girl who's engaged? Make sure you stay at least long enough to hear John sing about Captain Crunch...

Segment 1: • SBC fails (again) to pass the Law Amendment affirming only qualified men as pastors. • Historical cracks in this area have led entire denominations astray—are we next? • “Affirming but not affirming” language is the same tactic used in gender debates. Segment 2: • If churches are being disfellowshipped for female pastors, why not codify the standard? • Fear of man, cultural compromise, or fear of shrinking numbers? • SBC votes to keep the ERLC—why are we funding institutions that reflect the culture more than Christ? Segment 3: • Newsboys singer admits years of sinful living—how should Christians respond? • Discernment needed: are we gossiping or redeeming? • Real repentance or damage control? How we judge reveals more about us than them. Segment 4: • Can someone live in unrepentant sin for 20 years and still be a believer? • The key question isn't “when were you saved?” but “are you saved right now?” • Deception is powerful—and the local church is the safeguard God provides. ___ Thanks for listening!
