Welcome, dear listeners, to a very special edition of Tell Me Your Story. Today, on June 26th, I'm celebrating my 66th birthday—and it's no ordinary day. I'm stepping into a profound moment of synchronicity: on this 26th day of the 26th year of my life's journey, I'm turning 66. And so, today, we align with the power of the number 6—those repeating patterns that guide us, shape us, and invite us to harmonize with life's rhythm. Join me as we explore 10 insights that this number has brought me—and how it can invite us all into deeper alignment. Key Points: 1. The Personal Significance of 66: Reflect on the milestones and life lessons you've had by 66—how these numbers have shaped your journey. 2. Numerology and the Power of 6: Dive into the spiritual meaning of 6—balance, harmony, service—and how these resonate in life. 3. Repeating Patterns in Nature: We see them in the Fibonacci sequence, but also in the fractals all around us—from snowflakes to coastlines—showing us that life itself is a pattern, endlessly repeating, endlessly evolving. 4. Your Spiritual Journey in Cycles: Share how your spiritual path has mirrored these cycles—like a spiral, always returning but evolving. 5. The Significance of June 26th: Explore historical or personal events tied to this date—what does it mean in your family, your faith, or your community? 6. Aligning with Divine Timing: Talk about moments when you felt divinely guided—how this 6-year cycle is a reminder of trust. 7. Gratitude for Service: Reflect on how you've served others—what's been your calling, and how does it evolve now? 8. Balancing the Material and Spiritual: Talk about how material milestones—like birthdays—can also be spiritual signposts. 9. Inviting Transformation at 66: What do you hope to transform in yourself now—what new beginnings will you welcome? 10. A Call to Your Audience: Invite them to reflect on their own patterns—how do numbers speak in their life—what synchronicities can they trust? As we close today's special program, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for being with me on this journey. The number 6 has been a guide, a reminder, and a symbol of balance and harmony—and I invite you to take that energy with you. As you know, this program has been a labor of love for nearly 20 years. I've invited guests to support, and now I humbly ask you—my cherished listeners and viewers—if you feel called, consider offering a small donation or a recurring contribution. Every bit helps keep this space alive—so we can continue exploring these patterns, these stories, and these synchronicities together. I'm deeply grateful, and I can't wait to see where these next 66 steps lead us.

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
Pride Month is evil, and we must call it what it is. In this episode, we're discussing the spiritual implications of Pride Month, asking hard questions about what it represents—and how believers should respond. We're drawing the connection between pride, identity, and rebellion against God's design for human flourishing.Many Christians feel spiritually drained during this month, and we should. I'm challenging my listeners to love the LGBTQ+ community not with silence or compromise (and certainly not with support) but with truth—the truth that God offers forgiveness, transformation, and eternal life to all who repent and follow Christ.We must hate sin while praying for our enemies. Our culture desperately needs more holiness, conviction, and compassion rooted in the gospel, which is telling those around us the truth.—https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOoqBR_MWE2-fkYXYHCn80nZtEct4ixmRGrXZSrgIn5HP_tBc9Mcy
