07/19/2026 Jacob Kim   Judges 2:20-3:6   20 So the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he said, “Because this people have transgressed my covenant that I commanded their fathers and have not obeyed my voice, 21 I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died, 22 in order to test Israel by them, whether they will take care to walk in the way of the Lord as their fathers did, or not.” 23 So the Lord left those nations, not driving them out quickly, and he did not give them into the hand of Joshua. 3 Now these are the nations that the Lord left, to test Israel by them, that is, all in Israel who had not experienced all the wars in Canaan. 2 It was only in order that the generations of the people of Israel might know war, to teach war to those who had not known it before. 3 These are the nations: the five lords of the Philistines and all the Canaanites and the Sidonians and the Hivites who lived on Mount Lebanon, from Mount Baal-hermon as far as Lebo-hamath. 4 They were for the testing of Israel, to know whether Israel would obey the commandments of the Lord, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses. 5 So the people of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. 6 And their daughters they took to themselves for wives, and their own daughters they gave to their sons, and they served their gods.

07/12/2026 Rev. Jacob Kim   No King in Israel: A Series in the Book of Judges (Part 3) The Lack of Discipleship to Apostasy Judges 2: 6-23 The Death of Joshua 6 When Joshua dismissed the people, the people of Israel went each to his inheritance to take possession of the land. 7 And the people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great work that the Lord had done for Israel. 8 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died at the age of 110 years. 9 And they buried him within the boundaries of his inheritance in Timnath-heres, in the hill country of Ephraim, north of the mountain of Gaash. 10 And all that generation also were gathered to their fathers. And there arose another generation after them who did not know the Lord or the work that he had done for Israel. Israel's Unfaithfulness 11 And the people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord and served the Baals. 12 And they abandoned the Lord, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt. They went after other gods, from among the gods of the peoples who were around them, and bowed down to them. And they provoked the Lord to anger. 13 They abandoned the Lord and served the Baals and the Ashtaroth. 14 So the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he gave them over to plunderers, who plundered them. And he sold them into the hand of their surrounding enemies, so that they could no longer withstand their enemies. 15 Whenever they marched out, the hand of the Lord was against them for harm, as the Lord had warned, and as the Lord had sworn to them. And they were in terrible distress. The Lord Raises Up Judges 16 Then the Lord raised up judges, who saved them out of the hand of those who plundered them. 17 Yet they did not listen to their judges, for they whored after other gods and bowed down to them. They soon turned aside from the way in which their fathers had walked, who had obeyed the commandments of the Lord, and they did not do so. 18 Whenever the Lord raised up judges for them, the Lord was with the judge, and he saved them from the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge. For the Lord was moved to pity by their groaning because of those who afflicted and oppressed them. 19 But whenever the judge died, they turned back and were more corrupt than their fathers, going after other gods, serving them and bowing down to them. They did not drop any of their practices or their stubborn ways. 20 So the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he said, “Because this people have transgressed my covenant that I commanded their fathers and have not obeyed my voice, 21 I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died, 22 in order to test Israel by them, whether they will take care to walk in the way of the Lord as their fathers did, or not.” 23 So the Lord left those nations, not driving them out quickly, and he did not give them into the hand of Joshua.

7/5/2026: Rev. Jacob Kim   No King in Israel: A Series in the Book of Judges (Part 2): Drive Out Your Idols, Or Else   Judges 1:22-2:5   English Standard Version     22 The house of Joseph also went up against Bethel, and the Lord was with them. 23 And the house of Joseph scouted out Bethel. (Now the name of the city was formerly Luz.) 24 And the spies saw a man coming out of the city, and they said to him, “Please show us the way into the city, and we will deal kindly with you.” 25 And he showed them the way into the city. And they struck the city with the edge of the sword, but they let the man and all his family go. 26 And the man went to the land of the Hittites and built a city and called its name Luz. That is its name to this day. Failure to Complete the Conquest 27 Manasseh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and its villages, or Taanach and its villages, or the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, or the inhabitants of Ibleam and its villages, or the inhabitants of Megiddo and its villages, for the Canaanites persisted in dwelling in that land. 28 When Israel grew strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, but did not drive them out completely. 29 And Ephraim did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer, so the Canaanites lived in Gezer among them. 30 Zebulun did not drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, or the inhabitants of Nahalol, so the Canaanites lived among them, but became subject to forced labor. 31 Asher did not drive out the inhabitants of Acco, or the inhabitants of Sidon or of Ahlab or of Achzib or of Helbah or of Aphik or of Rehob, 32 so the Asherites lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, for they did not drive them out. 33 Naphtali did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, or the inhabitants of Beth-anath, so they lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land. Nevertheless, the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and of Beth-anath became subject to forced labor for them. 34 The Amorites pressed the people of Dan back into the hill country, for they did not allow them to come down to the plain. 35 The Amorites persisted in dwelling in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim, but the hand of the house of Joseph rested heavily on them, and they became subject to forced labor. 36 And the border of the Amorites ran from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela and upward. Israel's Disobedience 2 Now the angel of the Lord went up from Gilgal to Bochim. And he said, “I brought you up from Egypt and brought you into the land that I swore to give to your fathers. I said, ‘I will never break my covenant with you, 2 and you shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; you shall break down their altars.' But you have not obeyed my voice. What is this you have done? 3 So now I say, I will not drive them out before you, but they shall become thorns in your sides, and their gods shall be a snare to you.” 4 As soon as the angel of the Lord spoke these words to all the people of Israel, the people lifted up their voices and wept. 5 And they called the name of that place Bochim.[a] And they sacrificed there to the Lord.

The sermon connects the biblical concept of Jubilee liberty with American independence, using historical flags to illustrate a progression from colonial unity to reliance on God. It argues that the Founding Fathers viewed their freedom as a divine deliverance and encourages believers to recognize spiritual parallels in their own lives. The message challenges the audience to identify what they stand for by examining their modern equivalents of flags and social media posts. Ultimately, it calls Christians to rally around Christ as their true King rather than earthly rulers, prioritizing loyalty to God above national allegiance. The preacher concludes by urging a correct ordering of loyalties: country, Savior, and Scripture. Does the Bible teach patriotism? Should Christians love their country? Is it biblical to be patriotic? Does God care about nations? Is America mentioned in the Bible? Can a Christian be patriotic? What does the Bible say about freedom? Does the Bible support liberty? Should Christians celebrate Independence Day? Is it okay for Christians to fly the American flag? Should Christians obey the government? When should Christians disobey government? What does the Bible say about tyrants?Is civil disobedience ever biblical? What is biblical government? What does the Bible say about unjust rulers? Should Christians pledge allegiance to the flag? What should come first, God or country? Can patriotism become an idol? What does "No King but King Jesus" mean? Is Jesus King over earthly governments? Who is my true King? What does the Christian flag represent? What does the Bible say about banners? What is Jehovah Nissi? What message does my life send?

06/28/2026 Rev. Paul Bang   No King in Israel: A Series in the Book of Judges (Part 1) How the Next Generation Lost Its Way   JUDGES 1: 1-21 ESV THE CONTINUING CONQUEST OF CANAAn: 1 After the death of Joshua, the people of Israel inquired of the Lord, “Who shall go up first for us against the Canaanites, to fight against them?” 2 The Lord said, “Judah shall go up; behold, I have given the land into his hand.” 3 And Judah said to Simeon his brother, “Come up with me into the territory allotted to me, that we may fight against the Canaanites. And I likewise will go with you into the territory allotted to you.” So Simeon went with him. 4 Then Judah went up and the Lord gave the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand, and they defeated 10,000 of them at Bezek. 5 They found Adoni-bezek at Bezek and fought against him and defeated the Canaanites and the Perizzites. 6 Adoni-bezek fled, but they pursued him and caught him and cut off his thumbs and his big toes. 7 And Adoni-bezek said, “Seventy kings with their thumbs and their big toes cut off used to pick up scraps under my table. As I have done, so God has repaid me.” And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there. 8 And the men of Judah fought against Jerusalem and captured it and struck it with the edge of the sword and set the city on fire. 9 And afterward the men of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who lived in the hill country, in the Negeb, and in the lowland. 10 And Judah went against the Canaanites who lived in Hebron (now the name of Hebron was formerly Kiriath-arba), and they defeated Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai. 11 From there they went against the inhabitants of Debir. The name of Debir was formerly Kiriath-sepher. 12 And Caleb said, “He who attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give him Achsah my daughter as wife.” 13 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, captured it. And he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife. 14 When she came to him, she urged him to ask her father for a field. And she dismounted from her donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you want?” 15 She said to him, “Give me a blessing. Since you have given me the land of the Negeb, give me also springs of water.” And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs. 16 And the descendants of the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, went up with the people of Judah from the city of palms into the wilderness of Judah, which lies in the Negeb near Arad, and they went and settled with the people. 17 And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they defeated the Canaanites who inhabited Zephath and devoted it to destruction. So the name of the city was called Hormah.[a] 18 Judah also captured Gaza with its territory, and Ashkelon with its territory, and Ekron with its territory. 19 And the Lord was with Judah, and he took possession of the hill country, but he could not drive out the inhabitants of the plain because they had chariots of iron. 20 And Hebron was given to Caleb, as Moses had said. And he drove out from it the three sons of Anak. 21 But the people of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites who lived in Jerusalem, so the Jebusites have lived with the people of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.

If a bird has a dislocated femur, the bird is nonetheless kosher. But it seems that the same sage said that it was not kosher - in Pompedita, leading to an observation that different stringencies applied in different communities. One element of the decision being where the break occurs in the bird's leg. [Who's Who: Rabbi Shimon bar Halafta] Also, efforts to demonstrate that an animal that had been dubbed a treyfa is really not a treyfa - experiments by R. Shimon bar Halafta to disprove Rabbi Yehudah, including the shenanigans at an ant hill that apparently has no king.

What happens when the faith you inherited no longer looks like Jesus? Josif Wright joins Craig to talk about leaving Christian nationalism, questioning the flag-and-cross mixture, and learning to trust Christ instead of political power. Josif is a teacher, coach, hospice chaplain, church speaker, and author of The War Within: My Story. The conversation later turns toward his son Ryan's decade-long struggle with addiction. Craig also shares memories of his brother TJ, whose battle with alcohol ended in 2020. Together, they ask what families and churches can do when control fails, shame makes things worse, and love is the only faithful path left. They dig into: Why Christians should question “God-and-country” teaching Flags, pledges, voting, and divided allegiance Loving people beyond national and political teams Addiction from a parent's point of view Grace, identity, recovery, and harmful church labels

As Jesus stood beaten before Pilate, the religious leaders exposed the truth of their hearts: they had rejected their true King. In John 19, their declaration, “We have no king but Caesar,” reveals the danger of trying to please both God and the world. This episode reminds us that divided allegiance always leads us away from Christ.

What does it mean to follow Jesus when governments demand your allegiance, your silence, or your fear? In this episode of The Bad Roman Project, Craig sits down with Ara Torosian, an Iranian-born Armenian pastor who grew up under the Islamic Republic of Iran, served in the underground church, and now pastors Iranian Christians in Los Angeles. Ara shares his journey from reading the Bible in Farsi as a teenager to smuggling Bibles, enduring house arrest, and witnessing the explosive growth of Christianity in Iran. He explains why many Western Christians misunderstand both Iran and the Iranian people, and why the underground church continues to thrive despite decades of persecution. The conversation also turns to the present. Ara discusses Iranian Christian asylum seekers detained by ICE, the challenges facing refugees fleeing persecution, and the responsibility Christians have to speak for those who have no voice. Along the way, Craig and Ara wrestle with difficult questions about war, government power, national loyalty, and what it means to follow Jesus when political solutions seem inadequate. At the heart of the discussion is a reminder that the Christian's ultimate citizenship is not found in America, Iran, or any earthly nation, but in the Kingdom of God. “I'm proud US citizen, but most important, I'm a heaven citizen.” — Ara Torosian Whether discussing persecution abroad or immigration policy at home, this episode calls listeners back to a simple but challenging truth: Jesus is King. Highlights & Takeaways The underground church in Iran continues to grow despite severe persecution. Iranian people should not be confused with the Iranian regime. Following Jesus often comes with a cost that Western Christians rarely consider. Christians are called to show mercy before choosing political sides. The church must resist the temptation to place political leaders above Christ. Refugees and asylum seekers are people, not political talking points. The Kingdom of God transcends every earthly nation and political movement. No King but Christ.

Should Christians care about privacy? The surveillance state does not need your worship; it just needs your fear. In this episode, Craig talks with Jon Padfield of Business Reform about Flock cameras, license plate readers, data brokers, and why Christians should question any system that treats neighbors like suspects and calls it safety. Jon brings experience as an engineer, former Indiana state representative, professor, and Christian privacy advocate. Together, he and Craig unpack the old line, “If you have nothing to hide, why worry?” and ask the better question: who gave Caesar the right to decide what counts as wrong? This is not just about cameras on poles. It is about fear, consent, courage, and the way surveillance trains people to obey before anyone even gives an order. Can Christians simply shrug and say, “I have nothing to hide”? Jesus did not call us to outsource our courage to Caesar or trade neighbor-love for state-managed safety. They dig into: Why the “nothing to hide” argument fails How Flock cameras expand beyond stolen-car searches Data brokers, insurance companies, and digital profiling Public records, local pushback, and privacy laws Christian resistance in a watched world

What happens when Christians stop looking to government to do what only Christ can do? Brandon Kroll returns to explore Christian anarchism, Revelation 18, Ephesians 6, the love of money, and the spiritual powers at work behind the systems we trust too easily. What begins with the merchants of Babylon becomes a deeper reflection on empire, deception, money, and whether followers of Jesus should keep trying to fix the world through the kingdoms of this age. This episode traces the tension between earthly power and heavenly citizenship, asking where our loyalty really belongs when Christ calls us out of fear, control, and allegiance to Caesar. They Explore: Christian anarchism and allegiance to Christ Revelation 18, merchants, and deception Ephesians 6 and spiritual warfare The love of money as a loyalty issue Merchant power and America's roots Digital control, dependence, and fear Christian nationalism and the lure of power citizenship in heaven and what belongs to Caesar

Who is King of your life? —Pastor Tim Rice, speaking at Christian Fellowship Church in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota on 5-3-2026.

What if the gospel is not just about being declared right, but about being rescued from a world that keeps trying to enslave us? Cody Cook returns to the show for a conversation about Galatians, law, union with Christ, the present evil age, and the spiritual powers Jesus came to defeat. What begins as a discussion of Cody's book Delivered from the Evil Age of the Present becomes something deeper: a reflection on how we read Paul, what Galatians 4 is really saying, and why the gospel is bigger than being declared right. This episode traces the movement from law, slavery, and the “elementary principles of the world” toward rescue, adoption, new creation, and the kind of allegiance that belongs to Christ alone. They Explore: Galatians and the question of law or Christ old, new, and apocalyptic readings of Paul union with Christ, adoption, and being made new the “present evil age” and rescue through Jesus stoicheia and the “elementary principles of the world” spiritual powers, slavery, and the scope of salvation ordo amoris, J.D.

Israel has crashed and burned. Chaos, outlaws, and degeneracy abound. But it is not the final word. God's mercy, God's people, and God's plan endure. DEVOTIONABLES #929 - No King in Israel Judges 21:25 G-365 Devotionables is a ministry of The Ninth & O Baptist Church in Louisville, KY.  naobc.org

Jordan Grant joins Craig for a conversation about conservative Christianity, political deconstruction, Christian nationalism, and the long process of questioning power. What begins as a story about talk radio, Republican politics, and growing up inside a conservative Christian world becomes something deeper: a reflection on authority, coercion, medical culture, and what happens when the teachings of Jesus start pulling us away from the systems we once trusted. This episode traces Jordan's shift from political certainty to a more honest struggle with faith, power, and the kind of allegiance that belongs to Christ alone. They Explore: conservative Christianity and political identity political deconstruction and questioning authority Christian nationalism and the pull of power talk radio, media formation, and partisan loyalty medicine, expertise, and institutional trust why coercion conflicts with the way of Jesus following Christ beyond left-right politics

The No Kings rallies fanned out across the United States in protest of Donald Trump’s increasingly dangerous, erratic and autocratic regime. Cuba remains in darkness, the war in Iran has already turned into a quagmire, the economy is cratering and Americans are feeling powerless in the face of Trump’s rule. In this episode Max ruminates on the liberation of “America” from a different era as told by the life and times of Simon Bolívar, one of the great military commanders and political leaders of the post-Enlightenment era. His was truly a revolution of “no kings.” In Bolívar’s approach we can learn about combating despotism. UNFTR Resources Become a Member. UNFTR’s 5 Non-Negotiables.

We have reason to celebrate this week! And I want to celebrate with you. We all just experienced a profound demonstration of the power of collective action. I hope you were able to participate in one of the thousands of No King's events this past weekend. I was there for the event in my community and it was awesome. Fantastic energy, lots and lots of people. A wonderful collection of friends and neighbors and people I'd never met before. All of us gathered together in common cause, and to leverage the power of collective action. It was beyond impressive. I also hope that when you got home, you had a chance to look through social media and everywhere else to see all the images and video of the amazing events all over the country and the world. And I hope you took a moment to reflect on what that really means. There are three major sets of powerful evidence that momentum is increasing for us. The biggest, most obvious piece of evidence is the ever-growing No King's attendance and the number and diversity of communities touched.  Over 8 million people in over 3,300 local communities, including many in deep red territory in every state in the country. All of them showing up to say, what's happening is wrong. We want better. We are joining together to call for better, and to commit to creating better. What was maybe the most exciting to me, although there were a lot of exciting things, was that thousands of those who showed up said that this was the first time they'd ever participated in any kind of a protest. They'd never done anything like that before. But they looked around at what was happening and they said, I can't be silent anymore. I can't be standing on the sidelines. I need to stand up, show up, and begin to take action. But as I said, that's just one set of evidence. There's a lot more and it's creating some great possibility for 2026. In this episode, we share: Three powerful sets of evidence that momentum is building toward a big change in our favorTwo important lessons that tell us what we need to do next as Nonprofit leadersWhy the right wing is worried enough to double down on voter suppression, and how we can counter thatTwo actions Nonprofit leaders can take right now to help ensure our clients and volunteers are able to make their voices heardOne excellent tool that every Nonprofit leader can use to streamline that assistanceLink:  Handy look-up tool for all things voter registration: https://www.nass.org/can-I-voteHelp spread the word!

In this episode, Michael critiques a No King's rally organizer who thinks she's a "brilliant mind" while others are just "pack mules." The organizer's comments reveal a concerning attitude of superiority and a lack of respect for those who don't share her views. Michael argues that this kind of thinking is reminiscent of fascist and Marxist ideologies, where those in power dictate what others should do. The episode touches on the importance of critical thinking, individuality, and not blindly following orders. It's a thought-provoking discussion that challenges listeners to question their own roles in society.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey - it's Glenn. I sure hope you got to participate in a No King's rally near you. It was so energizing, reinforcing the reality that millions of Americans ARE standing up against the aspiring dictator, the orange autocrat, the wannabe king.I was really fortunate, in that I had the privilege of addressing the crowd right before we marched into DC. And when I looked out over that sea of people, I was inspired, I was energized, and I was humbled. In addressing the crowd, the biggest challenge for me was that the event organizers told me I had just 3-to-5 minutes to talk. If you watch my daily Justice Matters videos, you know I can be really long-winded. But I did my best to stick to the time limit and, as you'll see, I managed to keep it just under 5 minutes. Another thing about the rally that was really special for me: I got to meet so many of our community members. What do I mean by community members? Well, you may not know but every night on Substack we go live for a community meeting at about 8:30 pm ET, give or take. We spend about 30 minutes each evening talking about the legal issue of the day, talking about what we can do to engage in this fight for democracy, the fight for the rule, and the coming accountability. Can I invite you to join one of our nightly community meetings? It's a great, vibrant, terrific group of people. And it's completely free. I don't put anything behind a paywall on Substack or anywhere else. Our community meetings are easy to find. You can just go to glennkirschner.substack.com.

Mike questions what the “No Kings” protests actually accomplished, arguing they expressed frustration with Donald Trump but lacked any clear goal or outcome. He challenges listeners to identify tangible results, framing the demonstrations as emotional reactions rather than meaningful action.

In this episode, we explore the debates and tensions surrounding modern political and religious movements in America—focusing on the claims and concerns voiced by many who believe the nation's spiritual and historical foundations are being challenged.We begin by examining the recent “No King” rallies, discussing how various groups interpret America's heritage, the role of faith in public life, and the fears some express about threats to national identity. From there, we turn to the events of Palm Sunday, reflecting on the biblical story of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem, the expectations of the people, and the dramatic shift from celebration to crucifixion within a matter of days.The conversation then moves into history: the destruction of the Jerusalem temple in 70 A.D. and the theological debates that emerged in the early centuries of Christianity. We look at how disagreements over authority, doctrine, and the nature of the Church shaped centuries of global religious development.Finally, we address recent commentary from the current Pope, who called for peace and condemned violence while encouraging leaders to act with moral integrity. This prompts a broader necessary discussion that lasting peace is found only through King Jesus.The Voice in the Wilderness does not endorse any link or other material found at buzzsprout.More at https://www.thevoiceinthewilderness.org/

Quite a few things assaulted us over the weekend, many of which are very important. Here's some of what we cover in today's show:Yep, we're still in "conflict" with Iran. Much of the "conflict" remained the same across the last three days. However, there are quite a few new moving parts. We detail each change and update the status of getting this finished so we can leave.One thing President Trump wanted NOT to happen was for the U.S. to put boots on the ground in Iran by our military. We found out over the weekend that doing so is now inevitable. There WILL be American soldiers in Iran very quickly.Over the weekend, there were numerous "No King" rallies across the nation. These protests were NOT random but were carefully planned, implemented, and paid for by at least 500 organizations with at least $2 billion in assets.A region of North Africa has volunteered to "receive" Rep. Ilhan Omar if she is deported from the U.S. We go into the details about that as a possibility as V.P. Vance stated publicly she has committed fraud sufficient to trigger her deportation and termination of her citizenship.

Everywhere we look, people and things compete for our attention, devotion, and trust. But the truth of Scripture is that Jesus has no rival—there is nothing and no one that compares to Him. This series will walk us through the unmatched greatness of God, showing how His love, His power, His name, and His kingship stand above all else.

Not everything that competes with Jesus looks dark at first. Sometimes it looks polished, powerful, and close enough to the truth that people stop asking questions. In this episode, Craig and Scipio Eruditus explore Freemasonry, Christianity, and government, tracing both the bigger history and Scipio's personal path from Afghanistan war veteran to active critic of the powers he once believed were worth defending. What unfolds is a conversation about secrecy, loyalty, and whether followers of Jesus are being formed by Christ or by a world that teaches us to trust what happens behind closed doors.  They Explore: government and spiritual formation Freemasonry: secrecy, symbols, and hidden loyalty why power feels safer than trust the Christian pull toward influence truth in the open vs control in the dark allegiance to Jesus above every system

What happens when the stewards of Christ stop speaking and acting with the gravity their office demands? In this powerful reflection, Fr. Robert McTeigue argues that when Church leaders ignore truth, beauty, goodness, and sacrifice, it's not just scandalous. It can become a form of tyranny. Watch on YouTube: Many Jesters—No King?

From then on Pilate sought to release Him, but the Jews cried out, “If you release this Man, you are not Caesar's friend. Everyone who makes himself a king opposes Caesar.” So when Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Stone Pavement, and in Aramaic Gabbatha. Now it was the day of Preparation of the Passover. It was about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, “Behold your King!” They cried out, “Away with Him, away with Him, crucify Him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar.” So he delivered Him over to them to be crucified. (John 19:12-16)

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when people who claim to follow God end up giving their loyalty to something else?In this episode of the Dirt Path Sermon Podcast, Pastor Jason Barnett continues the Paradox Lent series by exploring one of the most shocking moments in the Gospel of John. In Gospel of John 19:6–16, the religious leaders stand face to face with Jesus and declare, “We have no king but Caesar.”This passage reveals a powerful truth about the human heart: when we reject the rule of Christ, we don't remove a king—we replace Him.Through the story of Pontius Pilate, the religious leaders, and the crowd, this sermon uncovers how fear, power, comfort, and control can quietly take the throne in our lives.This message will challenge you to ask:Who is really king in my life?What am I trusting more than Jesus?What would it look like to fully surrender to Christ's authority?Whether you are a long-time believer, someone wrestling with faith, or just exploring Christianity, this sermon invites you to consider what it truly means to say: Jesus is King.Listen now and discover why the choice between Christ and everything else still matters today.Linkoln shares his story on why he started coming to Ravenna Church of the Nazarene and shares why you should consider doing the same.Ravenna Church of the Nazarene530 Main Street, Ravenna, KY 40472Support the showThe Dirt Path Sermon Podcast is a place for real sermons that speak to real life.

This week we're reading a painfully difficult text, the continuation of Jesus's trial before Pilate as told in John 19:1-16a. Here we find the religious leaders coercing Pilate into executing Jesus by accusing him of disloyalty to the Empire. “We have no king but the emperor,” they say, betraying the very essence of their religious faith. This text serves as a caution for us about the ways proximity to power can corrupt religious faith, tempting Christians to hand over Jesus ourselves in pursuit of our own interests, whether motivated by ambition or fear. Amy also reminds of the particular dangers of this text for the Jewish community, cautioning us to tread lightly with its anti-Semitic tropes, which have caused such harm through the centuries. It is a difficult but urgent task we have before us today.

What if the freedom we defend is really just control in disguise? In this episode, Craig and Cal Robbins dig into rightful liberty, the idea that true freedom comes from God and must honor the equal rights of others. From Thomas Jefferson to Galatians 5, they explore the difference between liberty and license, why legal does not always mean moral, and what it means to say No King but Christ in a world shaped by fear, borders, voting, and state power. This is a sharp, Christ-centered conversation about free will, neighbor love, and the lies we tell when we trust Caesar more than Jesus. In this episode: Rightful liberty and the equal rights of others Freedom, free will, and the teachings of Jesus Why legal does not always mean moral Slavery, immigration, voting, and Christian witness “Render unto Caesar” and what belongs to God alone

Is Trump Barabbas? In this episode, Craig sits down with Paul Lazzaroni (Crossing Cornerstone / No King but Christ Network) to talk about the Barabbas mindset, our craving for a strongman savior, political control, and “winning,” even when it contradicts Jesus' way. We explore modern Babylon, the wilderness formation of God's people, and why “Jesus is Lord” can't be a slogan that still needs Caesar's power to do the work. Topics covered Barabbas vs. Jesus: what kind of “savior” we want Christian nationalism and the temptation of state power Strongman politics and fear-based faith“Modern Babylon” as a pattern (empire thinking) Exodus / wilderness formation and slavery mindsetReading the Bible without using it to justify domination “No King but Christ” as lived discipleship

On the Free Thought Project's 200th episode, we sit down with Ancap Tim, a musician and activist whose journey from music ministry and a preacher's upbringing to radical decentralization has made him a unique voice in the fight for liberty. We dive deep into the writing on the wall—the 2026 Epstein/Trump disclosures. We discuss the psychological phenomenon of partisan blinders, where the "anti-establishment" faithful often ignore the depravity of their own leaders, and how the DOJ has been used as a shield for predation. Jason Bassler brings a sobering warning: is the state intentionally discrediting itself to pave the way for a technocratic, AI-driven surveillance state? Before, we pivoted to the "White Pill," Tim entertained us with a live acoustic performance of his track entitled "Rothschild Rag" from his new album "The State is Just A Mafia." Tim then explained how music serves as a catalyst for awakening, bypassing the logical brain to reach the soul, and why the phrase "No King but Christ" is the ultimate declaration of independence from the state's parasitic "Nature of Empire."

1. Middle East Peace Agreement & U.S. Foreign Policy The discussion opens with praise for Donald Trump’s foreign policy—his “peace through strength” approach ended a two-year war, freed hostages, and prevented global instability. Trump is decisive and feared by America’s enemies (Iran, Hamas, China, Russia), contrasting with Biden, whom they describe as “weak and appeasing.” Historical examples (ISIS defeat, strikes on Iranian targets, anti-Houthi and anti-Venezuelan actions) are cited as evidence of Trump’s assertive leadership. 2. Government Shutdown The conversation blames Democrats—specifically Senator Chuck Schumer—for the “Schumer Shutdown.” The speakers argue Republicans are trying to reopen the government, while Democrats obstruct funding. They highlight political theater surrounding an upcoming rally (“No King’s Rally”) and accuse Democrats of prioritizing political optics over public service. There’s commentary on Congressional pay during shutdowns, with a contrast drawn between Cruz “refusing his paycheck” and Democrats “continuing to collect theirs.” 3. Charlie Kirk’s Death & Legacy This section memorializes Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, fictionalized here as assassinated and posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Trump. We explore Christian forgiveness, with Kirk’s widow, Erica, forgiving Kirk's killer during the televised service. The narrative blends religious devotion, martyrdom, and political faith, presenting Kirk as a “martyr for truth and freedom,” comparable to figures like Martin Luther King Jr., Lincoln, and Saint Peter. Trump’s and Erica’s differing views on “loving one’s enemies” are discussed as a theological and moral moment. 4. Interview with Eric Trump The final part is a conversation with Eric Trump, discussing: Legal battles faced by the Trump family (naming prosecutors like Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, Fani Willis, and Jack Smith). Financial strain (“$400 million defending ourselves against nonsense”). Perceived bias and corruption in the justice system. We then shift to personal reflections on Donald Trump as a father: Emphasis on discipline, hard work, no substance use, and humility despite wealth. Advice for parents: “Keep them poor, make them work early.” The conversation ends on a note of familial pride and loyalty. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
