John and Hannah Joy examine Elim College and its role within Pentecostal and charismatic history, tracing how Latter Rain, shepherding ideas, and modern revival culture intersected without forming a clear authoritarian hierarchy. Drawing from lived experience and historical parallels, they explore how closed religious ecosystems can reward behavior, discourage outside influence, and unintentionally foster spiritual abuse even without explicit top-down control. The discussion addresses corporal punishment culture, insider libraries, favored speakers, mission programs built in-house, and the power of testimony over doctrine. Rather than offering simplistic labels, the conversation asks harder questions about accountability, community identity, and why some movements persist for decades while others collapse into open authoritarianism. ______________________Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________- Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org

In this episode of the Westminster Podcast, Nate Shannon and Blake Franze welcome Dr. Augustus Nicodemus Lopez, Westminster alumnus, pastor, theologian, and former chancellor of Mackenzie University in São Paulo. Broadcasting from Istanbul during the Nicaea Conference, they reflect on Dr. Lopez's lecture on Colossians and deep Christology before turning to his formative years at Westminster in the early 1990s. He recounts studying under Moses Silva, wrestling with liberal European scholarship during his doctoral work, and how faithful mentorship preserved his confidence in Scripture during a season of profound doubt. Dr. Lopez also discusses his dissertation on Paul's use of the Old Testament, the distinction between revelation and illumination, and how Westminster's rigorous training equipped him for preaching, scholarship, and academic leadership across the globe. The conversation then shifts to contemporary challenges facing the church, particularly the doctrine of the Holy Spirit and the theological tensions raised by the global Pentecostal movement. Dr. Lopez argues that questions of Spirit, revelation, and spiritual gifts represent the most pressing frontier for confessional orthodoxy today. He also shares his conviction about using social media as a mission field—reaching closed communities, discipling young believers, and providing pastoral presence throughout the week—while warning against the dangers of unaccountable online ministry. The episode concludes with his hope that Westminster will continue equipping leaders from the global South, extending confessional, pious, and academically excellent theological education to the worldwide church.

John and Jenny dive deep into the psychology of obedience in high-control religious movements, focusing on the global ministry Youth With A Mission (YWAM). Drawing from lived experiences and professional trauma recovery work, they explore how enforced obedience suppresses consent, erases personal agency, and stunts emotional and cognitive development in children and young adults. Jenny explains how somatic trauma responses like “fawning” emerge from chronic obedience conditioning, while John connects these behaviors to the broader cultic systems within Pentecostal and Latter Rain movements. Together they unpack the devastating effects of obedience-based discipleship, from the breaking of children’s wills to lifelong struggles with shame, identity, and self-trust. The conversation also exposes how spiritual manipulation can rewire developmental pathways, creating adults who fear mistakes and repress emotion. It’s an honest, insightful dialogue that challenges one of the most dangerous doctrines in modern evangelical missions—and calls for restoration of agency, growth, and healthy autonomy.______________________Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________– Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham – Visit the website: https://william-branham.org

Seeking some spiritual stability, he later began to explore the Lutheran church, but that opened new doors for him of history, liturgy and sacramentality, and eventually led him home to the Catholic Faith

Fewer GOP House goosesteppers are falling in line possibly due to Trump’s rapidly detreating health evidenced by his tiny gross discolored hands.

John and Bob trace the long, tangled lineage of modern Pentecostal and charismatic movements, showing how cycles of cultural upheaval, crisis, and disillusionment have shaped revival narratives for more than a century. Their discussion follows the relational "family tree" behind movements like Latter Rain, Kansas City Fellowship, IHOPKC, and the New Apostolic Reformation, revealing how claims such as the "billion soul harvest" evolved through repeated patterns of failed predictions, fear-based messaging, and institutional control. Drawing on historical examples, personal experience, and deep research, they explore why revival expectations persist, how technology has reshaped spiritual culture, and why authentic renewal requires honesty about past distortions. ______________________Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________- Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org

Welcome to the Influence Podcast! I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host. In this episode, I talk to Allen Tennison about what Pentecostal ministers should read in 2026. Tennison serves as theological counsel to The General Counsel of the Assemblies of God. Reading may not be at or even near the top of many ministers' new year's resolutions, but it should be. In an August 1760 letter to John Premboth, John Wesley wrote: "What has exceedingly hurt you in time past, nay, and I fear to this day, is want of reading. "I scarce ever knew a preacher read so little. And perhaps, by neglecting it, you have lost the taste for it. Hence your talent in preaching does not increase. It is just the same as it was seven years ago. It is lively, but not deep; there is little variety, there is no compass of thought. Reading only can supply this, with meditation and daily prayer. You wrong yourself greatly by omitting this. You can never be a deep preacher without it, any more than a thorough Christian." Even if you agree with Wesley, questions remain: How long should I read every day? What should I read? How do I balance reading with my other pastoral responsibilities? Those are the questions Tennison and I discuss after a brief word from our sponsor.   IN THIS PODCAST 0:00:00 — Introduction 0:01:34 — Sponsor Copy 0:02:38 — How does reading help ministers deepen their preaching and spiritual formation? 0:07:18 — How much time should ministers devote to reading, and what's a realistic goal for how many books they should read? 0:14:43 — What kinds of knowledge should ministers seek in books? 0:20:00 — What Bible study books — commentaries, biblical theologies, reference works, etc. — would you recommend? 0:37:14 — What theology books would you recommend? 0:48:55 — What histories and biographies do you recommend? 1:03:10 — What books about ethics and pastoral theology would you recommend? 1:08:07 — What books on preaching and church administration would you recommend? 1:15:36 — Conclusion   SPONSOR COPY This episode of the Influence Podcast is brought to you by Gospel Publishing House, distributors of The Holy Spirit in the Life of the Discipler.

In this episode of the Living Well podcast, Olivia Hill discusses the concept of broken expectations and how they impact motivation and consistency in achieving personal goals. She emphasizes that motivation is not the issue; rather, it is the unrealistic expectations that people set for themselves. Olivia provides insights on how to adjust these expectations, build consistency, and create supportive environments for success. She encourages listeners to focus on daily wins and to shift their mindsets from an all-or-nothing approach to one that embraces progress and realistic timelines.

Send us a textWhat if being “right” never gives us the right to be ruthless? We dig into the tension between truth and tenderness through the story of Job and his friends, tracing how easy it is to weaponize doctrine, misread suffering, and crush a brother or sister when we should be restoring them. The conversation moves from personal wounds to practical steps, asking how a mature church confronts sin without humiliation and keeps compassion central when emotions are high.We share lived experiences across different church cultures, from strict Pentecostal roots to global ministry work, and how that journey built discernment and patience. You'll hear why private correction, verified witnesses, and a posture of humility matter; how Galatians reframes restoration as an act of fear and gentleness; and why forgiveness remains vital for renewed fellowship, not for re-earning salvation. Along the way, we expose common traps: slap-on labels, straw-man arguments, and the subtle thrill of seeing leaders fall. Each of these cheapens truth and blinds us to the person in front of us.There's hope threaded throughout: misjudgment can still become a pathway to grace. Like Job, deeper dependence on God often grows when human comfort fails. Trials may be the unexpected answer to prayers for intimacy, holiness, and steadfast faith. Our part is to refuse mockery, earn trust, and speak honestly with mercy so people feel safe enough to tell the truth that sets them free. If we want to be known as people of truth, we must become people of compassion.If this conversation challenged you or encouraged you, share it with a friend, subscribe for more thoughtful episodes, and leave a review with one takeaway you'll practice this week.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

Join your host Buzz Knight on the Takin A Walk replay episode with one of the most respected folks in the Nashville Music Scene. Jay DeMarcus shares his vast career in this episode, from his beginnings in Columbus Ohio, to his success with the legendary band Rascal Flatts. He also created and is CEO of independent label Red Street Records. Stanley Wayne “Jay” DeMarcus Jr. stands as one of country music’s most influential figures, not just for his role as a founding member of Rascal Flatts, but for his remarkable versatility as a musician, producer, and songwriter. Born on April 26, 1971, in Columbus, Ohio, DeMarcus discovered his musical calling early, immersing himself in piano, keyboards, and vocals throughout his childhood. DeMarcus’s journey to country music stardom began in his formative years, shaped by his Pentecostal upbringing and the gospel music that filled his church. This spiritual foundation would later inform the emotional depth and harmony-rich sound that became Rascal Flatts’ signature. After honing his skills in various musical settings, DeMarcus moved to Nashville in the 1990s, where he initially worked as a session musician and touring member for artists like Chely Wright and Michael English. The pivotal moment in DeMarcus’s career came in 1999 when he joined forces with his second cousin Gary LeVox and guitarist Joe Don Rooney to form Rascal Flatts. As the group’s bassist, keyboardist, and harmony vocalist, DeMarcus became the musical architect behind their polished, contemporary sound. His production sensibilities and instrumental prowess helped craft a string of unprecedented hits that redefined modern country music. Songs like “Bless the Broken Road,” “What Hurts the Most,” and “My Wish” showcased his ability to blend traditional country storytelling with pop-influenced arrangements and soaring vocal harmonies. Beyond his work with Rascal Flatts, DeMarcus established himself as a sought-after producer, working with artists including Chicago, James Otto, and Jo Dee Messina. His production style—characterized by lush instrumentation, meticulous attention to vocal arrangements, and radio-friendly polish—influenced a generation of country artists and producers. DeMarcus’s contributions to music have earned numerous accolades, including multiple Grammy Awards, Academy of Country Music Awards, and Country Music Association Awards. Rascal Flatts became one of the best-selling country groups of all time, selling over 23 million albums and 35 million digital downloads. The group’s consistent chart success throughout the 2000s and 2010s cemented their status as country music royalty. In his personal life, DeMarcus married Allison Alderson in 2004, with whom he shares two children. His family life occasionally intersected with his professional world, particularly through appearances on reality television and various media projects. The couple’s relationship became publicly documented through their participation in various entertainment ventures. Following Rascal Flatts’ farewell tour announcement in 2020—later postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic—DeMarcus continued pursuing solo production work and exploring new creative ventures. His legacy extends far beyond his instrumental and vocal contributions; he helped shape the sound of 21st-century country music, proving that traditional country could successfully merge with contemporary production techniques while maintaining emotional authenticity. Jay DeMarcus remains a testament to the power of musical craftsmanship, demonstrating that technical excellence, combined with genuine artistry and commercial sensibility, can create timeless music that resonates across generations.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Listen to Takin A Walk Music History on foot as Knight and Jay Demarcus discuss his amazing career, his influences and his leadership of a Nashville record label.

John and Jenny dive into the disturbing intersections between militarism, psychology, and religion within Youth With A Mission (YWAM). Drawing parallels to early Pentecostal cults and authoritarian movements, they examine how “spiritual warfare” language and practices condition young minds for obedience and control. Jenny shares her firsthand experience of life inside YWAM—where teenagers are sent on “target missions,” sleep-deprived prayer watches, and told demons lurk in everyday objects—while John connects these patterns to the mind control methods of Branhamism and early revival cults like those of Frank Sanford and John Alexander Dowie. Together they expose how hyper-spiritualized fear, trauma bonding, and dissociation produce lifelong anxiety and religious PTSD, even as participants believe they are serving God.______________________Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________– Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham – Visit the website: https://william-branham.org

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1860"Happiness is a moral obligation. There was nowhere in my childhood that happiness was a moral obligation. It was more about long suffering." - Dr. Daniel AmenDr. Daniel Amen grew up Catholic, an altar boy taught that faith meant long suffering, not happiness. He was scared of God more than he was connected to Him. Then a cute Army company clerk asked him to take her to church, which turned out to be a wild Pentecostal healing service with speaking in tongues and dancing. That unexpected detour led him to Teen Challenge, working with drug addicts who found staggering success rates when they stopped making recovery about themselves and started making it about their relationship with God. Years later, after becoming one of the world's leading brain scientists, he walked into his own church past tables of donuts being sold to fund ministry. He got angry. Really angry. So he prayed what felt like the stupidest prayer of his life: that God would use him to change the food culture at churches. Two weeks later, Rick Warren, pastor of one of the largest churches in the world, called him out of nowhere and said, "I'm fat. My church is fat. Will you help me?" Fifteen thousand people signed up the first week. They lost a quarter of a million pounds the first year.The conversation reveals something most people don't know: there's hard science behind why faith works. Researchers at Duke have documented that people who attend religious services regularly get better faster when they're sick. They have lower rates of mental health issues. It's not just the community, though that helps. It's the belief itself. Believing you're here for a purpose, that your body is sacred, that you're wonderfully made. Those beliefs create actual neurotransmitter benefits in your brain. Dr. Amen's purpose is to make a dent in the universe by getting people to love and care for their brains, and he's discovered that faith and brain health aren't separate paths. Your health will reflect the health of your ten closest friends. You get better together or you get sick together. This is a conversation about finding purpose in what you thought was your dumbest moment, about how anger at church donuts can become a movement, and about why happiness isn't just a nice idea but a moral obligation.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In Matthew 7:16, Jesus said, “You will know them by their fruits” (NKJV). Some use this verse to argue against the Pentecostal belief that speaking in tongues is the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Spirit. In this episode of Apostolic Life in the 21st Century, Dr. David K. Bernard addresses that argument directly. He explores what “fruit” means in Scripture and clarifies how speaking in tongues functions biblically in relation to salvation and the Christian life.

Does Deuteronomy 6:4 teach the absolute oneness of God, or does the Hebrew text support a Trinitarian understanding of God's nature? On this episode of Apostolic Life in the 21st Century, Dr. David K. Bernard responds to a popular argument circulated by Trinitarian apologists which claims the Hebrew word echad in Deuteronomy 6:4 refers to “unity” rather than “singularity,” thereby implying plurality within the Godhead.Dr. Bernard evaluates the linguistic, biblical, and theological merit of this claim and explains how Oneness Pentecostals should understand and respond to this interpretation. His clear explanation of the Hebrew text and its broader scriptural context offers valuable guidance for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the doctrine of the Oneness of God.For further study, see Dr. Bernard's book The Oneness of God.
