Fear And Insecurity by Concord Church, Statesville NC

Fatherlessness is a curse. In Malachi 4:6 it states, “at the end of the age I will bring the hearts of the fathers to the children and the hearts of the children to their father or else I will smite the land with a curse”. This is the mission statement of all our media content. This is the first time I realized what the curse is. It is fatherlessness. I have refrained from using the end of that verse because I did not understand what it was referring to and I did not want to frighten people. Well, here we are. The curse of fatherlessness is upon our generation. What can we do about it? This podcast with Justin (The Juice) Leverette is a discussion about what God is doing in the lives of young men to lead then to the Father. Many of these young men don't have natural, biological fathers. Nonetheless, Justin, a former Youth Pastor has started a ministry called “Encounter” in which people are being led to an Encounter with God as Father. Naturally, or should I say supernaturally, the only way to the Father is through His Son.  Justin is one of those people whom the Scripture describes in Romans 8 as being one of the sons of God whom the whole earth groans awaiting the manifestation of the sons of God. Come listen to us discuss experiences that Justin has had with fathers in his life and how God helped him overcome an orphan spirit. Justin came to know who he is and who his Father is by virtue of men who God put in his life. Our recent connection is an example of just such a spiritual father/son relationship.The Scripture says, “know no man after the flesh” and yet we are encouraged to know each other in the Spirit. While our interaction is new and fresh, it is based on words exchanged between us based on the Word both Logos and Rhema. See if you can catch the Rhema words being exchanged and the effect that their expression does to the ears of the listener. In reading this description you are about to become a listener. May God our Father bless you with wisdom you can apply to your life. Overcome the orphan spirit in your own life by connecting to the Heart of God the Father.

The word “Apocalypse” brings fear into most people's minds as it is often used to scare people with the notion that it represents the end of the world! And, yes, while it is true that it represents the end of the world, or more accurately the end of the age, the original meaning of the word is “uncovering” or “to take the lid off”. Therefore, the Apocalypse is a good thing, maybe even a great thing, maybe one of the greatest events in history. More pertinent to this podcast is that I believe this seismic sea change in the history of the world is about to occur soon. How soon is soon? Perhaps by the end of June 2023. Then again no one knows for sure except the Father. Even though this is the Father's Heart Talk Show, He has not told me exactly how or when, however, the signs indicate we are in the season of the end of the age.  The great “Uncovering” is a major battle in the Seed war between Good and Evil. Evil's use of the Babylonian system of debt to enslave mankind under the power of debt is about to come to an end. Scripture tells us “The borrower is the slave to the lender”. This principle has been used by evil people under the auspices of powers and principalities of evil to enslave us for centuries. It is all about to come to an end  Come listen to this podcast which describes how Papa Tom believes this impending national and worldwide transition is about to unfold. Personal experiences revelations and experiences at a recent conference with Turning Point USA Faith are igniting Papa Tom with a sense of euphoria. How can someone be elated at a time like this in which we are living? Either Papa Tom is delusional, or he is seeing something in our future that the righteous should be excited about. After all, “The wealth of the wicked is stored up for the righteous.   If you are righteous, it's a great time to be alive right now. Maybe the greatest time in history. Maybe you were made for a time like this. If you are not righteous, it may be a good time to consider the good news. The good news is too good to be true, but it is! Come listen to the heart of the Father appealing to you to connect with His Heart. Papa Tom Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

Does anyone enjoy living in a crazy world? No, of course not. When things go upside down and inside out; when good is called evil and evil is called good, there is no peace. How can there be peace when everything we see and hear causes fear. Such is the world we live in today. It appears we have gone to “hell in a hand basket” as the saying goes. There was a scene in an old comedy show, Seinfeld, in which one of the characters George Costanza decides he is going to try a new approach to life. Nothing seems to be working for him. He wants to attract the opposite sex. George, recognizing he is a male wants to attract a female. So, he decides since none of his one-liners are working, he needs to try something new. He approaches a beautiful young lady and introduces himself by saying he is short, fat, bald. He does not have a job and lives with his parents. The beautiful young lady, rather than being turned off by this unusual approach says to George “How interesting” and she thereupon expresses a desire to go on a date with him. Mission accomplished.  Naturally, Papa Tom does not recommend this approach. However, when every one of our institutions is offering and recommending ideas and thoughts that are anti-Biblical and anti-God, maybe its time to take a different approach.  Herein this podcast, Stephen E. Strang presents his new book for these times. The book is “Spirit Filled Living in an Upside-Down World”. We are living at the end of the age. We are living in the most unusual time in history. Could this be the greatest time to be alive? Yet, for us to understand the times we are living in and rejoice because our redemption draws near, we need to have a filter that allows us to experience life from the perspective of truth. Dr. Strang's book is a presentation of how we can approach life in the crazy world we are living in and not be afraid. My mission is bringing the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers. Living with and in the Spirit of God allows us to rise above all forms of fear. Perfect love casts out all fear. Come listen to Stephen Strang describe how his book will help you live your life above the fray of fear and chaos. Spirit filled living is the answer to how we can live in this crazy, upside-down world.  Papa Tom Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!  Show Notes: Come follow Papa Tom on social media on both YouTube and Facebook at www.YouTube.com/thefathersheartmedia  and www.FaceBook.com/papatomstales.

Henry David Thoreau once said, “most people live lives of quiet desperation (paraphrased).” Do you find yourself in this state of mind? We live in a fallen world; we were not designed to live lives of quiet desperation. We were designed to connect with one another and to connect with our Father. Yet, most of us have no idea why we are here, or where we are going, or what our calling and destiny is. We pinball through life from day to day clueless as to what is going on. Take a few moments to listen to Papa Tom describe what he believes Scripture tells us the context of the world we live in.  The perspective of a Seed War between the Seed of the Woman and the seed of the serpent shows the power struggle we are experiencing today. Evil gravitates to power and control. From the perspective of the enemy of our souls it's all about power and control. Hence, governments that control their populations through fear are operating under the influence of the seed of the serpent. Did Satan negotiate a deal with the serpent to be the progenitor of the seed of the serpent? Is the seed of the serpent the antichrist the Bible mentions?  Come listen to Papa Tom describe the plan. The Seed of the Woman, i.e. the Messiah sets us free in every way. Freedom vs. tyranny. God's plan is freedom; the enemy's plan is tyranny.   What can you do with your time, energy, and money to support God's plan? Find out what God is doing and where He is doing it and get behind. Lift your head up high becomes our redemption draws nigh. This is the greatest time to be alive. Most of us alive today are highly likely to see the end of the age and the restoration of all things. Those who believe in Christ have nothing to fear. We win. Satan loses. Smart money backs the winner not the loser. Connect with your Father and be free to become all He created you to be. Papa Tom Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

Did you ever expect something to happen, and it didn't? This circumstance occurs almost every day. Naturally, we are disappointed when our expectations are not met. Most often we have higher expectations of our loved ones, our spouses, children, and other family members. Beyond our close family circle, we have teachers, coaches, pastors, and other leaders in whom we place our confidence. Yet time and again we are disappointed. They never seem to live up to our expectations of them. How about our prayers? When we pray and ask God for things to happen and they don't happen, or even worse when we receive what we believe to be a response to our prayers from God and then it doesn't happen. At least the answer to our prayers does not occur in the way we expect or in the timeframe we expect. We are disappointed and then often we become discouraged. The fear of being disappointed effects all our relationships at one time or another. How can we overcome the fear of disappointment? Come listen to Papa Tom describe a series of stories in which unrealized expectations are addressed. How can we overcome disappointment and discouragement. Our expectations are created by our perception of people, events, and circumstances. There are forces at work trying to effect of perception of people, places, things, and circumstances. The Word of God is our only true source to give us the truth and help us perceive what is true and what is not true. After all it is written! The vertical relationship we have with our Father effects how we perceive life and how our expectations square with the Word when our expectations seem to run counter to reality. Do we place a higher value on what we perceive reality appears to be, or on what the Word says is true? Papa Tom describes several stories in which the truth was different than what reality appeared to be. Yet, at the conclusion the truth came to light. Many of David's psalms start out negative, at least David is complaining about what he sees, yet by the end of the psalm God reveals to David what the truth is, and David becomes uplifted by the truth. So too will you be lifted up when you read the Psalms. The way to overcome our is disappointment is to change our perception. Prayer and the Word are the tools at our disposal to help us accomplish this change of perception. When in doubt put on “Son-glasses”. Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

How many people, when asked, can tell you what their name means? Eighty percent of the people I meet do not know the meaning of their names. My interviewee in this podcast is a Youth Pastor at Calvary Chapel named Isaiah. His name means “Salvation of the Lord” or “Yahweh Saves”. Come listen to how God activated his name when he was 7 years old and brought into his life a man who became his father. The relationship between Isaiah and his father has had a rippling effect through their family, through their church and through every social organization this father/son team touched' Come listen to the effect this father/son team has had on two other people Gabe and Michael Davis. Both men needed God's help desperately in their lives; both lives were dramatically transformed. Is it ironic that the Book of Isaiah says in Isaiah 55:11: So, shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” You find here the word going forth is inherent in the son's very name “Isaiah” which means “Salvation of the Lord”. Does our Father have a sense of humor? He knew each of us before the foundation of the world. He knows exactly what we need and when we need it. He has a plan for each of our lives. His plan is always to prosper us. Each of the stories told in this podcast show the lives of people who after their lives were transformed were used to transform the lives of others too. Even in the story where one passes away prematurely God used his life to effect transformation in the lives of many others and is still doing so today. “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain”. Such was the destiny of Michael Davis. Come listen and watch the wheat grow! The Life Center in Lake Norman is the outgrowth of the seed that was planted when Michael Davis passed from this earth. One day each of us will clap for joy when we realize “O Death where is your victory? Where is your sting”. The restoration of all things is coming soon. Between now and then, what can you do to get behind what God is doing with your time, energy, and money? When you begin to flow with the Spirit of God in this way, you will find your own calling and destiny. Papa Tom Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

Did you ever wonder how young lives can be transformed if someone steps in the gap in a person's life and becomes a father to the fatherless? Listen to what happens when God gets hold of a man's heart? That man is changed forever. Sometimes when God gets a hold of a man and gives him an assignment not only is he changed, but everyone around him is transformed too. Jeff Storment is such a man. It wasn't that long ago that God got hold of him and gave him an assignment to be a father to the fatherless. This podcast is a story of what God is doing in the impoverished areas of Statesville and Salisbury NC. In small town America, just as in the big cities, young men find themselves fatherless. The cycle of addiction and destruction rolls on generation after generation. When will this vicious, nefarious cycle end? Listen to a story of transformation, wherein one man stood up and went all in with everything he had to help young men connect to their Father. Young boys ages 7 thru 17 are put into a program that teaches them to read, learn the Word of God, become educated and learn to train their bodies and their minds to become responsible citizens. Moreover, they are given an opportunity through scholarships to leave the environment they were born into and learn that they have a Father in heaven who loves them. They learn to become men and some of them will learn to become sons of the Father, and in turn fathers themselves. This podcast is the story of Power Cross, a Christian ministry that is transforming the lives of young men who are fatherless. It is gives them a sense of dignity and pride to become the human beings God created them to be. Jeff and his wife Natalie Storment are the founders of Power Cross. It all started 15 years ago in a small bible study in their home. It has now become a prolific agency for transformation in the lives of 650 young men. All the glory belongs to God. If you are wondering what God has in mind for your life. Papa Tom has a suggestion for you: find out what God is doing and get behind it with your resources: your time, energy and money. Make a difference in this world! Overcome the greatest General the dark side has at its disposal: General Apathy. Become part of the solution. Do whatever you can to set other people free of fear so that they can become all that God our Father created them to be in the first place. Shalom Aleichem! Papa Tom.

Do you ever ask yourself the question are there any good men in the world? Someone once asked Jesus if He was good? His answer was telling. He said no one was good only the Father was good. Well, in our natural state is anyone of us good? Scripture tells us the following: As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one; 11 there is no one who understands; there is no one who seeks God. 12 All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.” Left to our own natural condition, no one can claim to be good. But, what about those in whom the goodness of God the Father dwells? Do these men exhibit a goodness not their own? In these latter days could God be raising up sons of the Father to whom it has been said: “the whole earth groans awaiting the revelation of the sons of God”.  Come listen to a father and son team, Pastor Mike and Pastor Isaiah Burner describe the good things God is doing through them at Calvary Chapel in Statesville, NC. It's not about them. It's not about any good thing they are doing. All the Glory belongs to God. It's all about the good things God is doing through these men and thousands like them that are turning the hearts of the children to the fathers and the hearts of the children to their fathers.  Listen to how God put it on their hearts to start a Life Center named after a homeless man who went to the be the Lord, Michael Davis. The Michael Davis Center is a step in the direction of breaking the cycle of addictions and darkness that keep people in the rat wheel from orphanages to homeless shelters to addictions to unwanted pregnancies to either abortion clinics or orphanages again and the cycle continues. It only takes a few good men to take a stand for what is right. By the grace of God, these men are reaching out to touch the lives of those who desperately need a father in their lives. What is the Lord saying to you about what you can do to get behind what He is doing? Welcome to the Great Awakening!  Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

This podcast is a discussion of the imminent danger impacting our children from the transgender movement. At its source, transgender is brought to our children and their parents via the spirit of confusion. Once, the spirit of confusion enters a child's mind affecting their feelings, confusing them about who they are, subsequent spirits are then brought into play. These additional demonic spirits including suicidal spirits lead to death and destruction. These are life and death issues. Yet, we seem to be in a stupor, completely oblivious to what evil is doing to our children. This is particularly true of the propagation of transgender initiatives through public school systems. Guidance Counselors, School Administrators, mental health experts and the like are all proselytizing the new Transgender religion.  This podcast addresses the dehumanizing effects of gender dysphoria (confusion) on children and their parents. Parents are being demonically traumatized by so-called mental health representatives accusing the parents of pushing their children to suicide. This is a lie. The health care system, with its protocol offering the children puberty blocking drugs is leading children to commit suicide not the parents who are opposing the mutilation of their children who have self-diagnosed themselves. Come listen to what you can do to take a stand against the spirit of confusion. We are in a spiritual battle. It can only be won with the Word of God. It can and will be won eventually. The only question will be if you choose to take a stand for what is right! Remember everything will be all right in the end. If it's not right; it's not the end yet. Be encouraged! Find out what is in our Father's Heart. Get behind what God is saying and doing in the present. Be a participant in defeating the spirits of darkness. Bring the light, bring the truth, set the captives free! Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

The world appears to be going to hell in a handbasket. What can any individual do about all the problems they are experiencing in this world? The answer may shock you, but it starts with you! Who are you? How do you find out who you are? Where does your value and dignity come from? Who does it come from? This podcast offers you a solution to the issue your identity and where your identity comes from. This podcast is a discussion with Pastor Steve Heimbichner, author of the book “Called to be Men” in which we discuss how the evil we see in the world today can be addressed from the vantage point of knowing who we are. The foundation on which we can build a worldview starts with coming to an understanding of who we are. The next question we should ask is how can we find out who we are? There is only one place any one of us can find out who we are: it's from God the Father. Only God our Father, the Lord and Giver of Life, our Creator can tell us who we are. Furthermore, He can tell us our calling and destiny as well. In the famous words of S.M. Lockridge “Do you know Him?” If you don't know Him, how has that been working out for you? Are there any thoughts coming on your radar screen that are creating a desire in your heart to find out who you are?  This podcast anticipates Resurrection Sunday from the perspective of looking forward to the Second Coming of Christ. Darkness is crouching at the door, are you interested in finding light in your life. Come listen to this podcast to whet your appetite to discover who you are and the impact of the Father's love to help you overcome every worry, anxiety and fear thought that separates you from God the Father. The absence of a love connection with God the Father eliminates the possibility of you finding your identity, calling and ultimate destiny. Any change you would like to see happen in the world starts with your own heart. If you want to find out who you are, simply ask Him. It has been said if you ask the right question, the teacher will appear.  Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

When the General speaks warriors listen. In the heart of every father is the desire to protect, provide and mentor. Fathers want to protect their families, their communities, and their nation. General Douglas MacArthur said the purpose of a nation's military is to win wars. Boys are designed to become men; men are designed to become fathers. Having a father's heart is not gender specific; men and women can fight a nation's wars, which is the purpose of a military. Nonetheless, a military cannot be prepared to execute its mission if decisions are made contrary to its purpose. Our military's purpose has shifted to focus on the LGBTQ agenda and consequently we are no longer prepared to fight a war. Come listen to General Boykin discuss what is currently occurring in our military today. 23% of Americans are not qualified to be in the military and that includes both men and women. Recruiting is way down even offering up to $50,000 to join. Morale is at an all time low. Ads are being shown to recruit LGBTQ people into the military. Decision after decision is being made by our military leadership contrary to military preparedness and it's number one focus: fighting our nations' wars. As sad as this situation is come listen to General Boykin offer his suggestions and recommendations on the steps Americans can take to turn around our nation. General Boykin is a warrior. He is a throwback to another era when men were men and women were women and everyone knew who they were. He describes a book entitled the “Naked Communist” by a former Russian spy who capitulated and became an FBI agent. This book describes 45 points communism intended to do to weaken our nation. This book's most salient point was to weaken the family by taking he father out of the family. General Boykin makes this point at the end of this podcast. What can we do to counteract what evil has done to our nation? Put fathers back into the family. Put fathers back into every fabric of our society! Put them back into schools, government, churches, universities; every organization that exists needs leadership. Leadership starts with the having a father's heart to protect, provide and mentor.  Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

We were designed to connect. Naturally, we can choose to be alone and deny ourselves connection to our own detriment. The truth is love connects us and fear separates us. Focus on the word “us”. The word “us” implies there is a “We” that exists. Who is the We with? Who is the other party to our We? Who do we choose to relate to?  Scripture describes the Creator is an “Us”. Let Us make man in our image and likeness. Imagine that God is identified in the plural. God Himself is a “We”.  This podcast explores the concepts of We, With and the Word. Our options are to be alone or connected to another human being or connected with our Father. The desire to be connected rests within our soul. Our brains and hearts are wired by God our Father to love. Fear kills brain cells. Love produces proteins in our brains for increased life.  In exploring the concept of We in our relationships, we can either look horizontally to those around us like father, mother, siblings, friends etc. or vertically upward to a divine connection with our Father. Most if not all our human relationships will end at some point. Our human relationships exist for our benefit (hopefully) for a season. However, the ultimate relationship with our Father is forever.  Come listen to an amazing preaching by S.M. Lockridge about the most amazing person anyone could ever relate to. With Him we have the ultimate “We” relationship. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Do you know Him? You may know about Him, you may have images in your mind about who He is, but do you know Him personally. If you do know Him personally, He will take your hand and lead you to the Father after all since He is the Way, where do you think He is taking you to? Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

What happens when there are no fathers present in the home, school, churches, or any other social organization? Fear runs rampant. The father of lies uses lies to create fear. Fear separates us. The enemy of our souls wants fathers out of the picture. God the Father uses truth to bring His love to us. Love connects us. In the battle between good versus evil; fear versus love; lies versus truth, love always wins in the end.  Several weeks ago, I showed a clip of “Dads on Duty” in a Louisiana high school. This high school had daily explosions of violence. One day 22 students were arrested for fighting. It was out of control. The teachers couldn't stop the violence, the police couldn't stop the violence. Then one day 60 fathers stepped forth and said they would make their presence known in their high school. The day they arrived the violence stopped, cold turkey. The Dads arrived and took turns being present in the school. They greeted the students when they came in and walked the halls. The students were interviewed and asked why all the violence stopped when the fathers arrived. The students said they felt safe.  This podcast tells the story of a middle-aged divorcee whose husband was not interested in spending time with their son. No issues with custody battles in this family. The father wanted nothing to do with his son, and this reality broke the mother's heart because she experienced the effect it had on her son. What was motivating the son's father to walk away from his son: it was fear. No law can be written to change the heart of a man. Perfect love casts out all fear. The only antidote for this father's fear was the love of God the Father.  Come listen to how Marilyn York, a divorce attorney from Nevada who represents only men in divorce proceedings and particularly fathers. She works to change the laws in the state of Nevada from laws that favor the mothers to laws that support a father's rights to his children. The driving force behind Marilyn's initiative is to help the children. In a word the children need a father. In a much broader sense, we all need fathers who represent the love that God the Father has for us. Despite the fact we lie in a fallen world, with lies producing fear all around us, it's a breath of fresh air to experience a touch of love to help us experience the truth God loves us.  Lastly, Papa Tom shares part of his latest children's book “The Birthday Present” in which “Songlasses” are alive and help people see the truth. If you abide in Him, you will see the truth and the truth will set you free. Truth leads to love. Love leads to connection. Who better to be connected with than God the Father? Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

Show Description:   Do you ever wonder who you are or where you come from? Do you question whether your parents are your biological parents? It is said 25% of children born today are not the biological children of the man who they call Dad. It a world that has emasculated men and deposed fathers from their rightful position in the family, do we wonder why our nation and society in general is collapsing? Fatherlessness is arguably the greatest social problem we have in America today. This podcast explores the impact that a father's words have on their children. This impact starts very early with the naming of children. The right to name someone or something implies ownership or at a minimum authority to do so. Who has the right to name a person? Who had the authority to name you? Adam named all the animals. He had authority to do so. According to Scripture, your father has the right to name you. Your father may also help you find your calling and destiny. Your name may have indicators in it of your calling and destiny. The words your father says to you will have a significant impact on your calling and destiny in either a good or a bad way. Father's have been given God given authority to name their children. Implied in that right to name comes responsibility not only to give a child their name albeit a first name, but also the father's last name, i.e., the family name. Come listen to how Greg Laurie's life was impacted by his adopted father, Oscar Laurie. Come find out what the name “Laurie”, a Scottish name means and how that effected Greg in his life and the impact on their father/son relationship. The stories we tell in our podcasts are designed to inspire, transform, and restore or redeem the connection God the Father wants for you. This connection extends to your children. Remember it is our mission in life to bring the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers. Come listen and allow God your Father to open your heart to Him! Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

Show Description:  Are children important to you? If not, don't listen to this podcast. If you believe children are important, even if you don't have children yourself, this podcast will bless you. At the Father's Heart Talk Show, we are interested in promoting what is in the heart of God the Father is saying and doing. Children are the apple in God's eyes. They are the highest priority in God's mind. Alternatively, children are also the focus of evil people who want to gain power and control over our lives, our society, our nation and even the next generation. It should not come as a surprise to our listeners that we are in a war in America and in the world. This war has many aspects and various fronts on which attacks are being made to confiscate our freedom. While not a shooting war, the ramifications to our freedom as individuals is at stake. In all wars the first victim is truth. This war is no exception. In the theater of the mind, a psych-ops war is being fought over ideas and thoughts. The principal target is our children's minds. They are being taught lies. Lies produce fear.  Come listen to this podcast as Papa Tom offers 3 clips that show where the attack is focused on our children. Scripture tells us that God wants us to be fruitful and multiply. Satan cannot reproduce. Human beings made in the image and likeness of God the Creator, can reproduce. Could Satan's inability to reproduce and the jealousy of Mankind that stems from that reality be the underlying premise for LGBTQ? Sadly, I believe it is. Men who remain men; and women who remain women live their lives with the capacity to reproduce. They can have children. The LBGTQ community cannot reproduce. The LGBTQ community cannot have children. Is Satan laughing at them? And yet through media and the schools and Hollywood, Satan is going after our children. Currently, in the world in which we live, which side of history do you choose to be on? Good vs. Evil, Light vs. Darkness.  Come listen to personal stories Papa Tom tells about his own family experiences with having children. The head is out to the neck! Is the expression that you will remember! Children are a gift from the Lord. They belong to Him, let's not let them be deceived and captured by evil people who want to control them or destroy them. Father God is not going to allow these activities to continue, we are reaching a tipping point. Everything is going to change and when it does it will move quickly. What can you do to stand up for what is right? Are you willing to stand up for what is right for the sake of children? The consequences of your decision will affect you, your family, your community and ultimately our nation! Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

Show Description: Every heart-warming story often involves tragedy. This story is no exception. Nonetheless, God works through tragedy to draw us closer to Himself. We desire to present stories that are inspiring, transformational, and redemptive. Jake Norris' story is such a story.  Beginning with his early life in which Jake's father was either absent or simply had a negative, even destructive influence on his son's life, we find Jake being taken care of by his sister Kim. Unfortunately, Kim was killed in a horrible car accident in which Jake should have died but didn't. Jake's sister's death sent his life into a tailspin, but God had other ideas in mind. Come listen to how Jake's football friends (his offensive line) stood up and loved him back to God his Father.  Later, Jake himself was in another horrendous automobile accident. He was traveling 80 mph on Dead Man's Curve which had a required speed limit of 25 mph. He hit a tree head on demolishing his car, yet he walked away completely unscathed. Why? Did God have His Hand on Jake's life? Come listen to what happened next.  Another phase in Jake's personal life brought him again to a place of emotional collapse. Again, God sent men into Jake's life to help him. They took a trip up into the mountains. In a mountain cabin, Jake woke up very early before sunrise and took a walk and got lost. On that walk he encountered God. Not many of us have mountain top experiences with God, but Jake did. Come listen to how he describes his experience. For those of you who know the book “The Shack” or have seen the movie, this is a real-life experience which follows the same script. We are sure you will enjoy listening to what God is doing in this young man's life and maybe, just maybe, you will have a hunger for God to speak to you too!

Show Description:  It is said children are born with a genius level of imagination and creativity, however, by the time they reach the age of 10, 84% of them lose their ability to imagine. If you desire to become like a child again, it would be good to have a vivid imagination. Some people never lose their imagination. Scripture tells us, unless we become like a child again, we shall not enter the Kingdom of Heaven.  Naturally, this does not mean childish, but rather childlike. One outstanding characteristic of childlikeness is imagination. Could it be that possessing a childlike imagination is key to entering the Kingdom of Heaven?  We cannot see the Kingdom of Heaven with our natural eyes. Could it be that imagination opens the eyes and ears of our spirit to see into the unseen world? A world that cannot be detected by our natural eyes. Our greatest thinkers, men like Albert Einstein and Nikola Tesla praised the value of imagination as being one of the greatest gifts God has given us. This podcast shares with our audience what these great men said about imagination.  Come listen to our podcast as Papa Tom explores the gift of imagination as the communication link God has given us. Is this communication link essential to communicating with God our Father? Does He communicate to our spirits through imagination?  Additionally, Papa Tom shares three instances where there were God sightings. Events which show how God the Father is moving on the earth in the hearts of people.  An outpouring at Asbury University, a child in Turkey being fed by a mysterious man in white under a huge pile of rubble, and finally 600 men stepping up to the call to be a father to the fatherless. These are just the beginning signs of things to come: outpourings, awakenings, and revival! What else is on the menu? What else does our Father have in mind for those who love Him? Perhaps He has immeasurably more than we can think or imagine. So put on your imagination hats and let your imagination expand!  Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

Ted Sr., the father, found himself in jail, sold out by the people who worked for him. Ted and his brother Rick went through a roller coaster ride of incarceration in and out of prison. But, through it all God had His hand on Ted Sr.'s life. Abandoned by all his friends, he found his son and daughter step up to the plate visiting their father in jail. In doing so, the family relationships that had suffered under the absenteeism of their father was restored. All the family relationships were restored as Ted Sr. got saved in jail and his son Ted and daughter Gina were saved simultaneously in Bible town. Thankfully, God is in the restoration business. Come listen to Part Two of the DeLisi crime family's restoration. Forgiveness was a major factor in this restoration process even though it took 31 years to develop. Come listen to how time after time people hurt Ted Sr. from his work family who snitched on him, to the lawyers who stole from him to the prosecutor who put him back in jail overriding a vacate order from one court to a stay order by a higher court. Ted had many people to forgive, and he forgave them all. Then there was only one person left: himself. He had to forgive himself. The Prodigal son story is recited and the parallels in real life to the DeLisi family are uncanny except in reverse. In the Bible story the son flew the coop. In this story the father flew the coop. Now the father is back living with his son and enjoying the last chapter of his life in the sunshine of his grandchildren's smiles. If there ever was a story of bringing the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their father, this is it. The Father's Heart Talk show and our podcasts are designed to bring you inspiring stories that are transformative and restorative. No matter where you are in life, God your Father wants to bring His blessings into your life. If you want to be transformed or restored, do you think it might be a good idea to connect with Him. I think so.  Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

“Prodigal Father's Journey Part One: The Downfall” Show Description: In a world that has become increasing lawless, we find a redeeming story of an Italian family from New York, who engaged in practices that at the time were criminal, but subsequently became legal. This story is fascinating in all the scenarios that played out. In fact, it is great material for a movie. Nonetheless, through all the excitement of drug running marijuana in the late 60's and throughout the decade of the 70's the DeLisi crime family found themselves devastated as the father's criminal activities destroyed his family. Thankfully, God is in the restoration business. Come listen to our podcast in Part One as we find Ted Sr., the father, being an absentee father who never spent any time with his son or daughter as he pursued the high life of “drugs, women and song”. Ted Jr. as a sixteen-year-old son wanted to become just like his father, taking over the drug business when his father went to jail. From a teenager's perspective, even though they were estranged, his father's life looked very attractive. But God had something else in mind. The family moved from NY to Florida to pursue a car repair business after their home was burned down in NY. Lack of business led them to repair Volkswagens, the car of choice of hippies in the 1960's. Hippies smoked a lot of pot. One thing led to another, and the head of the family Ted Sr. worked with his brother to create one of the largest marijuana smuggling operations in history. The demand was enormous and the supply low. Come listen to how the logistics of this drug business blossomed only to come crashing down.  So, from Jamaican pot to Columbian Gold, the family prospered financially, while the inter family relationships crumbled. Until one day God sent an angel in the form of Brother Ron to the Big House where he called out the head of the DeLisi Gang by name, Theodore DeLisi. Ted Sr. stepped forward in front of his whole gang as they watched him surrender his life to Christ in a dramatic moment that had rippling effects throughout the jail. Part One of this podcast describes the backstory when we pick up the story beginning in the late 1960's to 1979 when Ted Sr. was caught and went to jail for the first time. He eventually served 31 years in prison. He would still be in prison if his second 90-year sentence had not been curtailed. Part Two picks up our story from jail to the restoration of his relationship with his son, Ted Jr., daughter Gina, and his grandchildren. This is a heartwarming story of restoration and redemption of family relationships. The father/son and father/daughter relationships were restored. We decided to title this podcast The Prodigal Father as he was the one who left the family and engaged in profligate living. As we have always contended if you want to have a father's heart and become a good father, you need to learn what it means to become a son of the Father. Ted Sr. found his way back to God the Father and we give the Father all the glory for his return. His story fulfills our mission: bringing the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to the fathers. Ted Jr. and Gina are rejoicing in the glory of their father's return. Enjoy his story! Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

“Finding Your Voice”   Show Description:   If you find yourself spending all your time and energy surviving, you may not have the interest or bandwidth to consider this podcast. However, if you find yourself searching for satisfaction beyond the necessities of life, you are likely to find the subject presented herein to be interesting, if not intriguing. The subject of this podcast is finding your voice. The thought behind this presentation is exploring on your journey through life how do you find your voice? Everyone has their own voice, i.e., their own way of expressing themselves. Individual expression can be found via writing, speaking, singing or painting; almost any manner of communicating has an individual expression. We live in a world in which Government and Private companies are working together to censor our voice. Our Founding Fathers thought it of the highest importance that the very first freedom we have been given in the Bill of Rights was freedom of speech. We must have freedom of speech to be a free people! If you find yourself being persecuted for what you say, you may have found your voice. Come listen to this podcast as the subject of finding your voice is explored. There are several stories discussed including personal stories of how I found a way to express myself to my grandchildren. How can you impact the lives of your children and grandchildren? How can you help your sons and daughters see themselves as the children of God? This podcast shares with you how I have been positively affected by the voice of other people who have influenced me in my thinking. Those authors and podcasters who have presented new ideas to me are on my short list of future potential guests on our show. This list includes both famous and unknown people who have a story to tell. Come listen to who they are. This podcast shares a Biblical story in which Yeshua reveals the heart of God to forgive and not to accuse or condemn. Can you experience God's voice in the Word? Certainly, if one has the ears to hear and the eyes to see, they will be able to experience the voice of God in Scripture. His love for us is expressed in the tone and substance of His Word. If you can find the Father's voice, maybe, just maybe you will be able to find your own voice as He certainly knows your true voice; after all He created you. Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

“Enthusiasm The Elixir of Life”   Show Description: Enthusiasm is defined by Noah Webster as “getting excited about what God has revealed to you”. It's being God-inspired and activated. Most sickness and disease start with stress. Most inward directed thoughts we think about ourselves are negative inducing stress. Do you see where this thinking process is headed? However, the thinking outside ourselves about other people or another being like God brings us to a completely different place in our minds. In order to be truly enthusiastic, one must believe there is a God and that that God has revealed something to them which excites them. It is the ultimate “other” experience. This podcast shares several stories of how enthusiasm effected the lives of the people who were involved. The initial stories discuss sports stories in which enthusiasm effected the lives of the players in a good way. The last story is about the process of bringing forth life. It is personal to myself and my wife. It shows how God moved upon my wife's womb enabling her to become pregnant. It was foretold prophetically in the Psalms 113:9 “The barren woman shall be given a home and be the joyful mother of children”. This word from the Lord and Giver of Life was met with enthusiasm as more words came forth on Father's Day in June of 1981. Come listen to how a young couple was moved upon by God and gave them something to get excited about. Listen to these stories and ask yourself what has God revealed to you that you can get excited about in your life? If nothing comes to mind, seek Him out and see what He reveals to you. Our lives, callings, and destinies are in the mind of the Lord, and He so much wants to reveal them to us if we will only just let Him do so. Each one of our callings and destinies will bring heaven to earth in some way, shape or form. His Kingdom will come on earth as it is in heaven. The only question is will you participate in this process or not? I pray for you to participate, get a personal revelation from the Lord and get excited about it! Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!  Show Notes: We will be looking for people who will want to become part of our launch team to re-launch Book One and then Book Two and Book Three on Amazon in the first quarter of 2023.

“Trust, The Essence of Connection” Show Description: What do you feel like when someone you don't know says to you “Trust me”? I cringe inside when someone, particularly a stranger says those words to me. I feel like they are trying to dupe me into believing them. Similarly, I feel the same way when some tells you how honest they are. As soon as someone says to me that I can trust them, my antenna goes up and I immediately don't trust them. I cannot explain why this happens, perhaps it's simply past experiences. In any case, this podcast describes why we need trust in our relationships despite all the negative experiences we have had to the contrary. The question is asked “Is life worth living if we don't trust anyone?” The answer is no; it's not. Without trust we cannot have relationship with anyone, therefore is life worth living without relationships. This podcast describes a personal story about praying for an anonymous person who left a prayer request at a coffee shop. The prayer request included a scripture verse Proverbs 3:5 which says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, rely not on your own understanding”. I was personally affected as a result of praying for this unknown person's prayer request. So often we experience broken relationships because of broken trust. Divorces, anxiety, worries, fears and even depression can occur in our lives because someone lied to us or betrayed us. Scripture tells us that “God will be proved true, though every man be proved a liar”. There is only one being whom you can trust completely and that is God Himself. He is both love and truth at the same time. He cannot lie. He is the fundamental relationship on which all other relationships can be built, and He is completely trustworthy. Come listen to Papa Tom describe his personal story about how this important subject of trust was brought to his attention. Come listen to how the story of Abraham describes someone whose relationship with God progressed over his lifetime from experiences in which Abraham showed he did not trust God to the end of his life when he was willing to sacrifice his son Isaac because he had learned he could trust God completely. Abraham knew God would do what He said He would do. Promises made; promises kept. Abraham came to realize that God was a covenant keeping God. Ensconced in his belief Abraham came to be known as the Father of Faith. Thereby linking trust to faith. Come listen and be encouraged to learn God is the only One we can truly trust. Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

ordsmithing, The Art of Using Words to Influence Our Minds”   Show Description:   Do you realize how effective words are to affect the way you think and behave? Sticks and stones will break my bones will never harm me”. That childish statement is a lie. Everything we do in life emanates from a thought we have. Every thought we have comes from a word or picture (remember a picture is like a thousand words) that sits in our mind, and we believe it. In the Theatre of the Mind the use of words exquisitely arranged to create pictures in our minds is the currency of the realm. The question is which realm? The Domain of Darkness or the Kingdom of Heaven?   Come listen to Papa Tom describe how wordsmithing has been used in his life to help him understand his craft as a Storyteller. Papa Tom defines what the term wordsmithing means and how it can be used for good or evil. Come listen to three Stories Papa Tom describes to illustrate “wordsmithing” starting with Satan's use of words to deceive Adam and Eve in the Garden. Next, there is the use of the word “wordsmithing” in The Last All Hallows Eve” a new EBook that you can download from our website at www.thefathersheartmedia.com. Finally, we can learn how our government uses “wordsmithing” to convince us to take action based on the narrative they are describing. Unfortunately, many of these narratives are designed to create worry, anxiety and fear and thus are false.   Worse than that, those with evil intent who desire to exercise power and control over us, use wordsmithing to program us. This is subtle, yet effective. For those who press into the heart of the Father, no worries. The Word will always reveal the truth. The Word tells us if we abide in Him, we will know the Truth and the Truth will set us free. Remember it's always in the Father's Heart for His children to be free! Bringing the hearts of the fathers to the children and the hearts of the children to fathers is our mission.     Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!     Show Notes: Subscribe at our website www.thefathersheartmedia.com and enjoy all our media: podcasts, articles, blogs and Children's Books.  We released a new eBook for adults “The Last All Hallows Eve”.

“How Truth Connects Us to Our Father Through the Eyes of a Child”   Show Description:   Many are familiar with the saying from Scripture, “unless you become like a child again you shall not enter the Kingdom of Heaven”. This podcast discusses Papa Tom's Tales Book Three “The Birthday Present”. In the tradition of each book overcoming a specific fear via the love of God the Father, this book deals with the Spirit of Deception. The background to this book is discussed as in the famous style of Paul Harvey describing the rest of the story.   In previous podcasts and radio shows I have discussed the power of words and how stories connect us to each other and to God our Father. Many of us find ourselves constantly being deceived by the MSM (Main Stream Media) and most other forms of media as we battle evil people trying to program our minds in the Theatre of the Mind. The enemy of our souls cannot reach our spirits, but he can distort our perception of almost everything around us. How do we see the truth? How do we see what is truly happening all around us? The solution is a gift from God our Father who metaphorically gives Luke the Lightbearer a special gift:  Songlasses. This gift is alive. It corrects the vision of whoever wears them. It trains the eye of our spirit to see the truth in whatever is looked upon. These are miraculous glasses that lead Luke's friend Joshua to see the truth so he can fulfill his calling and destiny. While Papa Tom's Tales are children's books, they contain ideas and thoughts for all ages. None of us will ever be able to achieve our calling and destiny in this life unless and until we can see the truth.   Come listen to this podcast and allow your mind to ponder the ideas discussed herein with the ears of a child. Perhaps, if you can listen to this podcast with the ears of a child, becoming like a child again, then maybe, just maybe you will enter the Kingdom of Heaven right here and right now. After all, the Kingdom of Heaven is near at hand! Hold your hand up to your face. It's that close!     Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!     Show Notes: Subscribe at our website www.thefathersheartmedia.com and enjoy all our media: podcasts, articles, blogs and Children's Books.  We released a new eBook for adults “The Last All Hallows Eve”.

“The Fatherlike Characteristic of An Avenger”   Show Description:   What does Avenger mean in the Bible? Avenger translates Hebrew go'el , which in its verbal form means to redeem. Redemption applies to repossessing things consecrated to God (Leviticus 27:13-31 ) or to God's actions for His people (Exodus 6:6; Job 19:25; Psalm 103:4; Isaiah 43:1 ).   This podcast with Jaime Luce is a discussion of the redeeming characteristic of a Father who seeks to redeem or repossess. It is interesting that in our modern parlance we would consider an “avenger” as someone who seeks revenge. However, this is not the original Hebrew meaning of the word. The characteristic of an Avenger is someone who redeems. Jaime reveals this understanding of an avenger in Hebrew. The classic story of an avenger is a Kinsman Redeemer and the prototypical Biblical character who depicts the Kinsman Redeemer is Boaz.   Every woman seeks a Boaz for her husband. Someone who will support her. Someone who will provide, protect, and mentor her in life. These are all characteristics of a true father. These are the same characteristics of a Kinsman Redeemer. Come listen to Jaime describe these characteristics and the underlying truth behind the story of Ruth. A Kinsman Redeemer is someone in our bloodline who is willing to step up to the plate and take responsibility for us. These responsibilities are not lightly taken. In Hebrew tradition, a Kinsman Redeemer had to be willing to take on three responsibilities. Come listen to what they are. Come listen to how Ruth's story describes our lives in many ways and how each of us needs a Kinsman Redeemer to be our personal Avenger. Boaz is a figure of Christ and he stepped up to the plate for Ruth, just as Yeshua did the same for each one of us.   Come listen and enjoy our discussion and the story that Jaime presents. If you are looking for someone to have your back, come listen and maybe you will find Him.     Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!       Show Notes: Subscribe at our website www.thefathersheartmedia.com and enjoy all our media: podcasts, articles, blogs and Children's Books.  We released a new eBook for adults “The Last All Hallows Eve”.

For better or for worse, stories effect the way we think and consequently how we relate to each other. This podcast discusses why stories exist; what their varied purposes are, and how it affects our minds and our relationships. Personally, I believe my calling is to be a Storyteller. It has taken me 70 years to walk into my calling, however once I landed in this role, I am where I am supposed to be. One way or the other stories effect our minds. Jesus told parables to reveal spiritual truths. Jesus was a Storyteller. Through His stories we can find meaning and purpose in our lives and so much more. We are bombarded today with narratives that are designed to affect our minds. Could it be that there is a sinister plot to affect our minds? Could the name of this evil intent be called “Project Mockingbird”? Could the news media be speaking from the same sheet of music every day, using the same words to program us? If so, what evil has befallen us, and we don't even see it because we have already been programmed. Papa Tom shares his third Papa Tom's Tales Children's Book on this podcast “The Birthday Present”. He shares in this book an example of telling a story that addresses the very issue of deception. Stories can teach, educate, and inspire us. Papa Tom states there is more truth in a fictional Papa Tom's Tales book that you will ever hear from the mainstream media. The device God uses to help people overcome deception is “Son-glasses”, a living, breathing prism through which they can view reality to see truth clearly. Do you own a pair of Son-glasses?

Bring your Kleenex to listen to this podcast. This is an interview with Sam Sanchez who transparently discusses his relationship with his father. Sam is a father of four children himself and one of three in his family of origin. Sam's father was functionally illiterate, barely having a 7th grade education. Yet, when you listen to Sam's stories about his father you will be touched by the emotional connection Sam had with his Dad. I will not go into any detail with you in this description as I do not think I can write his story with the same power of his spoken words. This is a story that needs to be heard. The video is also available on www.FaceBook.com/papatomstales. Come listen to Sam himself express his feelings in his relationship with his father who shaped his character by just being there. His father told him “Never give up no matter what the circumstances”. Sam's Dad spoke those words having lived through tragic personal health conditions that appeared insurmountable. Yet, through it all he lived an exemplary life, never giving up. When most people would have thrown in the towel Sam's father pressed on giving an example to his children. Sam's father was his hero. Come listen to our podcast of hope and reflection on what it means to young people to have a father who just shows up. Many people today do not have a natural father who is willing to be a father in their lives. Children are growing up without true fathers in their lives. Social structures are missing fathers in every one of the seven mountains of influence in our society. Where have all the fathers gone? Whether you can be a natural father or surrogate father to a child consider the impact you can have on another person's life if you can stand in the gap in a role as teacher or coach. If you are a natural father, consider just showing up to be there with your kids. If you do, you just may become their hero! Ultimately, you may be able to lead someone to discover who their true Father is: The Father of Lights: Yahweh Elohim!   Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!

This podcast is about good discipline in the true sense of the word from a good father. This podcast addresses the issue of discipline from both a spiritual and natural perspective. When a father disciplines his children, he should never use his hand. The hand of a father is for blessing and affection. The same is true with the Hand of God our Father. Our Father's Hand is to bless not to punish.   Train up a child in the way they should go and when they are older, they shall not depart from it. It is helpful for parents to understand the value of training and disciplining their children and in so doing giving them boundaries. Children need to understand boundaries to feel free within the constraints of those boundaries.   Come listen to several stories that describe natural ways in which a natural father can bless his children with proper discipline and proper boundaries. How would you react if your child thanked you for giving them a spanking? That is not the normal reaction in our society today, yet that is the response of a child who understands his parent is disciplining them out of love. The heart and hand working hand in hand.   The stories contained in this podcast are a throwback to an era when the disciplining of children with a rod (wooden paddle) was acceptable in society. The purpose of such discipline was not only to give a child a boundary, but more than that to help a child learn self-control, a practice that will accelerate their growth and development in the world. How many children do not have boundaries today? How many children do not understand or practice self-control? If a parent truly loves their children, they will want to help them in every way possible. Helping children learn self-control blesses them. If they learn to honor their parents, it will go well with them in their life.     Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!

This podcast is a story of redemption. Many people have heard the story of the Prodigal son in Scripture. The son left home, spent all his inheritance in wayward living and debauchery and finally awoke to the realization that the servants in his father's house were living a much better life than he was living and so he decided to return to his father's house. The father embraced his son, all was forgiven. The father gave his son a robe, a ring and new sandals, artifacts that all symbolized acceptance and reinstatement in the family.  Herein this podcast is a story of a father who was at best absent as a father in relationship to his son. The father and his brother were living large in South Florida as drug dealers. Despite the fact as successful drug dealers they enjoyed a rich lifestyle neither brother was a good father to their family. This podcast is discussed from the son's perspective. His father was not there for him for the first 16 years of his life. Then an event happened: his father was caught and thrown in prison for 27 years. Imagine what it must have been like having an absentee father to start your life and then having him thrown in prison for 27 years after that, how would you feel?  Nonetheless, come listen to how God worked out a reconnection between father and son. The father returned to his son's home and now lives with his son and wife and grandchildren. This is a story of redemption. This is story we all can learn from. Whether a son returns home to his father, a child reconnects with his parents or in this case a father returns to his son a reconnection is made and it's a heartwarming true story of the Father's Heart of God in action!    Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!

This podcast discusses the concept of who we are connected to? Where do we come from? Who are we descended from? The importance of knowing who your father is goes beyond the thought of who your natural father is. If you know who your father is, do you follow him?  The podcast discusses the dialogue between Jesus and the Pharisees about who their father was and who Jesus's Father was. The real issue here is the attempt of the Evil one to deceive us from realizing who our true Father is. Many people today do not have a natural father who portrayed a father's heart to them. Their natural fathers have not displayed the heart of God the Father.  Who is your Daddy naturally? And more importantly who is our Daddy spiritually? Ultimately, our callings and destiny are ultimately determined by who our Daddy is spiritually.  Papa Tom's Tales Book Three is “The Birthday Present”. It discusses the issue of overcoming the spirit of deception. The biggest deception is deceiving us from understanding who our true Father is. Separating us from our Father is Satan's primary objective.  Come listen to our presentation of “Who Is Your Daddy”, it will cause you to think and hopefully motivate you to find out who our Father is. Whether you accomplish this naturally or spiritually or both you will be better off!    Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!

This podcast discusses with a successful college football coach, Tony Pierce, the absence of fathers in young men's lives. Tony's father was the youngest of 20 children and never learned how to be a father himself. There appears to be a generational curse operating in America and perhaps around the world, wherein young men are not being trained to be fathers. When a young male sires a child we place the label “father” on him, yet most of the time he is clueless about how to be a true father to his child. Many young men do not want the responsibility of being fathers. Where does this leave generations of people who grow up not knowing who their father is and consequently not knowing who they are either. Come listen to Tony describe how he found out his father he did not know how to be a Dad. Come listen to how the absence of a father affected Tony and his older brother Jerry's life. What was it like to be a successful athlete and your father did not come to your games to support you? What happens when a father shows up to watch his son's game? Come listen to how the effect of the absence of fathers in the lives of Tony's players affected their lives. Also, more uplifting is hearing how young men were able to forgive their fathers and bring healing into their lives, literally changing the trajectory of their lives. Many of the social problems we have in America today can be traced back to the absence of fathers in the family and in most of the social structures in which we operate. The Father's Heart Talk Show is dedicated to “bringing the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers or else I will smite the land with a curse”. In America, we are experiencing the effects of this curse on our nation. It's time to forgive, it's time to love, it's time to turnaround this curse. Forgive your father! Make God Your Father Again! and let Him heal your heart.   Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!

This podcast addresses the issue of how our lives are being affected by changes in our society in the words we use to create new reasons for people to be offended and consequently divided and separated. The purpose of The Father's Heart Talk Show is to help us connect. Offenses cause the opposite effect; we become separated. This podcast has four stories that illustrate how people are offended, sometimes intentionally, sometimes unintentionally. Come listen to how you can overcome offense or outright avoid the impact of offense in your life. When anyone becomes offended it is not a pleasant experience. It should be avoided at all costs. So, how do you renew your mind and protect your heart against the effects of offense? The question that is raised in this podcast is Who is Your Daddy? That might seem odd at flush blush, but the secret to not be offending rests on the truth of knowing who you are. Furthermore, how does one come to know who they are? They come to know who they are through God their Father. Come listen to the exchange between Jesus and the Pharisees when the question of who their Father is, was raised. We can learn much from this exchange. Come listen to how our minds are being programmed to become offended purposely to divide us. Families are being divided; communities are being divided. Do you want to be alienated, separated, and disconnected from people? Or do you want to connect and relate to people? Satan wants to control us. God wants to set us free so that we can willingly connect with Him and connect with one another. Come learn how to protect your heart from offense. Become offense proof! This will bring much joy into your life and help you avoid much emotional pain. May God our Father Bless you with the knowledge of who you are, your calling and destiny.

This podcast is a presentation of the process of thinking outside of oneself about others. Everything “other” is the antithesis of self-centeredness. Three stories are given about Otherness. The first story is showing the effect of a grandson discussing with his grandfather a topic very dear to the grandson's heart. The grandfather's defense mechanisms were pierced by the innocent and pure motive of his grandson whose only concern was his grandfather's well-being. Come listen to this story between Mike the grandfather and Jude the grandson. It is a true father-son exchange of Otherness connecting the heart of child with his grandfather and simultaneously connecting the heart of a grandfather with God the Father. Come listen to two personal stories that show how the process of Otherness has affected my life in very good ways. Practicing Otherness in my prayer life has brought me closer to the Heart of God my Father the Big Other in my life. Further, the process of Otherness has connected me to new people I meet every day. Come listen to how practicing the process of Otherness will lead you to finding your true self, calling and destiny. It seems the opposite is true; seeking self-improvement only leads to self-centeredness. However, thinking about others, especially God our Father as the Number One Other leads us to understanding who we truly are. We believe you will enjoy this podcast. It is entertaining and contains truth you can easily apply to your life that will have an immediate, positive effect. Hopefully, you will be touched by the stories told herein as I was affected. By the way, if this podcast truly affected you in a good way, you can start practicing “Otherness” by passing it onto others who you believe will benefit from it!  Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!   Show Notes: All our media: podcasts, articles, blogs and Children's Books can be found at www.thefathersheartmedia.com website.

This podcast delivers a perspective of Halloween from the dark side. Consider the truth that we are all spiritual beings having natural experiences rather than natural beings having spiritual experiences. As spiritual beings whose side are we on? We will find ourselves on either one side or the other: The Kingdom of Heaven or the Domain of Darkness. Let's look at how the dark side perceives Halloween, Satan's High Holy Day. All Hallows Eve, All Souls Day, the day when death first entered the earth.  In the tradition of C.S. Lewis' “Screwtape Letters” this podcast presents a skit of Uncle Screwtape (the senior Devil) instructing Wormwood (the younger devil) on the history of Halloween starting from the first Halloween in the Garden of Eden. When Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, it marked the time our Lord and Master gained control over the humans and simultaneously dominion over the earth. Down here we call it the “Rise”, the other side calls it the “Fall”.  That day was the first “Trick or Treat” event. Our Lord and Master's first trick brought about Death which is our best friend. Come listen to Uncle Screwtape describe to Wormwood how the Domain of Darkness has been able to keep control over the humans through the fear of death, the mother of all fears. This fictional account further presents current events from the perspective of darkness presenting the “D” award to the Doctor of Death which is only fitting to honor a chosen vessel who has helped the Darkness promote death on the earth. It is unrighteous and unjust to present this award on Halloween, Satan's High Holy Day, the day on which we devils get the humans to celebrate Death with us.  The podcast ends with a true story of a woman, who when she was young was kidnapped and subjected to Satanic Ritual Abuse. Needless to say, she does not celebrate Halloween and cannot go out that day for fear of spiders.  Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father's Perspective!

This podcast introduces the discusses how anyone can find their identity, calling and destiny. The background of this podcast in the Book One of Papa Tom's Tales: “The Boy Who Found His Name”. However, the search for one's identity transcends all ages. How sad it would be for someone to live their whole life and never come to know who they are! The approach of using the genre of a Children's Book to broach the subject of identity permits one to understand how simple it really is to understand your identity. It starts with the idea that we all have a Creator. Naturally, the One Who creates us knows who we are. This Being Who created us according to Scripture can be known as our Father. Therefore, the search for identity starts with the search for the Creator. The premise of all Papa Tom's Tales books is the premise that every child is confronted with different fears along their path in life. The first fear one is likely to confront is the fear of not knowing who you are. Come listen to why Papa Tom started writing Children's Books. Furthermore, how each book is designed to overcome a specific fear. Perfect love casts out all fear. Where is the one place you can find perfect love? Come find out.  The mission of all Papa Tom's Tales books is to promote a connection between each and every individual with their Creator as Father. It is in the Father's Heart to want to connect with everyone. If we want to know who we are, why not go to the source. Come listen to the approach Papa Tom takes to lead even a child to the lap of God the Father to learn from Him everything you want to know about your identity, calling and destiny!   Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!   Show Notes: All our media: podcasts, articles, blogs and Children's Books can be found at www.thefathersheartmedia.com website.

We cannot understate the importance of the meaning of words. The word “repentance” often brings negative connotations of someone in “sackcloth and ashes” which is not the true meaning of the word. Come listen to the true meaning of repentance, turning 180 degrees from one direction to the opposite direction. Papa Tom shares personal stories about his own father, his family, and his personal life decisions to receive repentance as a gift which opens the door to blessing and favor. There are few experiences in life that affect one's soul like deathbed experiences. Tom shares an intimate experience he had with his own Dad. Reflecting on our life experiences can bring us to a place where we understand our relationships in a different light. If we can repent of our negative attitudes and false, belief systems we open up the door of opportunity for our Father to bless our lives. Come listen to two stories that reflect this very occurrence. One only must ask oneself the question “How is that working out for you?' to come to realize if something is not working out for you then you need to change something. Repentance is the best place to start. Take the time to reflect on your own life and see if there is something that you want to repent of thinking, doing, saying, or believing. More importantly turn to the Father: He wants to connect with you so that you will have a blessed life.

Come listen to this podcast wherein two fathers in the financial services industry discuss how they learned about money from their family of origin. Ted DeLisi and Joe Delmonte are our guests on this podcast wherein we interviewed them for the “The Father's Heart Talk Show.” Both Ted and Joe discuss their approach to how to allocate the resources of Time, Energy and Money.  Which perspective do you have? Do you have a poverty mentality or a wealth mentality? Do you come from poverty or wealth? How did your family of origin influence your thinking about money?  Ted has an interesting background. His father and Uncle were involved in the drug trade before their lives changed dramatically. Ted's relationship with his father was mercurial to say the least, but now all is well. It all turned out all right, Ted's relationship with his Dad has come full circle and they have learned to relate well together, but it was a roller coaster ride.  Both Ted and Joe have interesting perspectives on how to advise their clients about money and investments. Wealth and Health are the two most important industries in America. They go hand in hand. Come listen to a mentally healthy perspective from two trustworthy financial advisors that you can trust to give you good advice. I am sure when you listen to them you will come to the conclusion you can trust them for their advice.  Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

This podcast describes a conversation Papa Tom had with the Father about Energy. The conversation started with how one best utilizes their resources: time, energy and money. It moved into understanding God the Father's resource is energy. We are made in His image and likeness: He creates through the power of His Word. We can do the same thing. Everything is held together with the Power of His Word or inversely the Word of His Power. Come listen to Papa Tom discuss how gaining greater revelation of the nature of sound energy effects our lives in the most deep and meaningful ways. We were created to create; we were created to speak. What we say with the words we choose to speak effects our environment and ultimately effects the world. It reminds me of the statement that when a butterfly flaps its wings on one side of the world, it creates a storm on the other side of the world. That is an image of the power of the words we speak. Naturally, we can speak both good and bad words. Good words bring love and truth; bad words create fear and lies. This podcast will open your mind to think about the way things are in a completely different light. It will be insightful and revelatory. What role do you play in this world with the words that you speak? Get to know the Heart of God the Father better and maybe you will learn more about who you are and who you were created to be as well. Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!

Have you ever taken the time to ask yourself the question: “do you know where you are going?” If you have been honest with yourself, you may find the answer is you are lost on your journey through life. Most of us who live in a civilized society are distracted from the reality in which we find ourselves. Media, entertainment and sporting events occupy our awake moments when we are not working. How often do we take the time to have a real, meaningful conversation with someone?  Herein in this podcast we present Deng Majok Chol's story about his life. It's an amazing story of a child in South Sudan who did not know who he was, did not know how to read or write, did not know God his Father. Yet, God reached out to him, and he was able to find out who he was, and more importantly who God is Father is. Through a series of miraculous events, along the way, he found his way home.  Henry David Thoreau once wrote:  “most people live lives of quiet desperation”. How sad if this is your reality. However, it does not have to  be that way. God gave you a calling and a destiny. Come listen to this podcast in which Deng reveals snippets of his life story escaping the onslaught of kidnapping and slaughter in the civil war in South Sudan. Deng is one of the Lost Boys who made it out alive. Furthermore, God had a plan for his life in many ways paralleling the life of Joseph in Scripture wherein God is using Deng to save his country.  Have you found your calling and destiny yet? Do you know who you are and who God your Father is? Are you lost? Do you want to stay lost? Or do you want to find your way? Come listen to one man's experiences and be inspired to find your way home on your journey through life. Come and listen, enjoy, and connect with God Your Father!   Show Notes: All our media: podcasts, articles, blogs and Children's Books can be found at www.thefathersheartmedia.com website.

This podcast discusses the importance of being understood. Communication via talking is extremely important to all our relationships. Papa Tom discusses how we interpret words that are spoken to us and affect our lives in a dramatic way. Understanding the meaning of words, the tone delivered by the person speaking, their body language, etc. All these manners of communicating help us relate to one another. Come listen to our presentation of how words and images affect our behavior by influencing our minds to take action. Words help us connect to one another. Words help us love one another. Words help us connect to one another and to God our Father. Come experience different ways our interpretation of language gives us better understanding, how we can communicate better. Thus, allowing us to love more and fear less and thereby being able to connect to more people. Good relationships make our lives richer, more rewarding, and more enjoyable. Remember what our Founding Fathers wanted for us: to enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness!

Addressing our mission statement “Bringing the hearts of the Fathers to the Children and the Hearts of the Children to the Fathers”, this podcast adds an additional thought which precedes the above statement: These are the days of Elijah. The Days of Elijah are the days when prophets are raised up to prepare the for the second coming. We are in those days right now. The Father's Heart Talk Show is based on an appeal to reach out to people to get connected. Who should you get connected to? Who is your family? Who is your tribe? Where do you belong? Where is your community? The most fundamental community all of us are born into is a family. While our natural families are the most basic form of community, we may find ourselves estranged from our natural families and yet we remain wired to seek connection. We are wired to be loved and to seek love, yet we live in a world that bombards us with fear. Love connects, fear separates. Come listen to our stories today about family and community. Papa Tom shares a video clip about his recent family vacation. This is a glimpse into what family feels like and what God our Father wants us to enjoy on the earth and more so in His Kingdom. What is happening in your life today that is more important than being connected to people who are your family, tribe, and community? Most importantly who is your Daddy? All identity, callings, destiny, connection, life and existence come from the Father of Lights, the Big Guy, the Only Uncreated One, yep you got it your Father!

As difficult as it is to connect with people, places, and things that we can see; how much more difficult it is to connect with people, places, and things we cannot see. Dreams provide a channel for connection and communication beyond our five senses. While our five senses are the gates to our mind, dreams open the door to our imaginations to see into another world that we cannot see or perceive with our natural eyes. Is it any wonder the most likely time for us to dream is when we are asleep? During REM (Rapid Eye Movement) time our rational minds are asleep, and our subconscious or spirit is awake. What occurs in our dream life can determine what happens when we are awake. Dreams can predict our future, our callings and destinies are embedded in our dreams, but most importantly God our Father can speak to us in our dreams, communicating to us in ways that cannot happen when we are awake. This podcast discusses dreams from the perspective of God our Father speaking to us. Come listen to examples of how God spoke to me in dreams and the effect it had. God is an economist, dreams not only affect the person having the dream, it effects the people around us who we are connected to in some way. Dreams have changed the world. Two Biblical dreams are mentioned that effected the history of the world: specifically, Joseph's interpretation of Pharoah's Dream and Daniel's interpretation of Nebuchadnezzar's Dream. Come listen to how dreams can reveal your calling and destiny as they have revealed my calling and destiny. Come discover how your Father wants to connect with you through dreams and show you your calling and destiny. Perhaps you have experienced a Déjà vu experience. Is a Déjà vu experience nothing more than a dream you had in your past that revealed to you your future? May you be encouraged to seek out good dreams from your Father. May you realize your future depends upon it! Come and listen, enjoy and connect with God Your Father!

This podcast is Part One of a Two Part series of interviews with an old family friend who from any perspective is considered a “mensch”. The dictionary defines a mensch as someone who is a person of integrity and honor. The Jewish culture would also imply in Yiddish that such person had an imminently successful career. Such is the case with Robert G. Flanders Jr., or more affectionately Bob Flanders. Few people live lives that in the eyes of the world reach the highest levels of success and prestige as Bob Flanders has done. He is the epitome of success from almost every calculatable perspective. The oldest of seven children, the father of three, a successful marriage of 51 years, QB of a preeminent private high school and Ivy League college teams, a highly rated scholarship athlete in both football and baseball. Superior academic excellence at both Brown and Harvard Law School. Signed a major league baseball professional contract while attending Harvard law school. A business litigation attorney for the top law firms in the US, Supreme Court Justice in the Rhode Island. Bob enjoyed a fairy tale career, yet through it all after 70 years of living he discovered a most important secret. His father was not his father. Here was a son who would make any father proud to be his father; yet the man he called Dad all his life was not his father. What would you do if you discovered your father was not your father? Would it change anything? Would you tell him at age 94 what you found out? Come listen to Bob's personal story and found out how Bob handled this situation. Part Two will discuss Bob's passion, the Law and the Constitution. The purpose of law to protect an individual's rights. And the purpose of the Constitution to protect us from Governmental tyranny. A true Renaissance man shares his thoughts for us today. A true son who has a father's heart.

Few people live lives comfortable in their own shoes. Few find careers satisfying to their natures, giftings and callings. Of the few people who find such careers, how many become lawyers? Occasionally, you can find such a person, when you do you will find they have a purpose in life beyond the apparent day to day things they do, they find meaning in what they do. How many lawyers find true meaning in the Law? You can find lawyers performing their jobs for the money, power, prestige etc., but how many truly appreciate the beauty of Law? Why does Law exist? What is it there for?  Come listen to this podcast as these questions are posed to our Man for all Seasons, Bob Flanders. The reason he went into law was because as a competitive athlete he found that the field of law offered a “playing field” on which he could compete and win. At the same time, he realized he could help people settle their disputes and grievances justly. For the law was all about Justice. Bob discovered the Law was designed to bring Justice and in so doing to protect the rights of the individual.  On a higher level, the Law of our Land, based on our Constitution protected the rights of individuals from tyranny. Listen to how Bob responds to questions about the Constitution with respect to our Founding Father's desire to create a government with separation of powers. “Power corrupts and Absolute Power corrupts absolutely” was a principle understood by our Founding Fathers. Those who think they are above the Law put themselves in a position of playing God. This is what we are confronting today in our nation. Those who want to play God place themselves in the most unrighteous position of all, they do so to exercise power over the people in opposition to our Founding Father's desire to place power in the hands of “We the People”. This podcast will provide you with thoughts that will cause you to stop and think. Our nation needs fathers back in leadership roles and positions of authority that respect Law (Law and Order).  Come and listen, enjoy and connect again with God Your Father!   Show Notes: All our media: podcasts, articles, blogs and Children's Books can be found at www.thefathersheartmedia.com website.

It seems right that I meet Tyler Lee at a Freedom Convoy in rural North Carolina. Tyler is a young man from Virginia, the home of many of our nation's statesman. He was born in Virginia, raised in a Biblically sound family of four brothers. He always wanted to be businessman, not a politician, but God led him to run for political office as a US Congressman from the 12th District in North Carolina. Come listen to Tyler's story. Come listen to how God His Father led him in is life to this current calling. Where is the Lord leading him now in his calling and destiny? We need people like Tyler who has a Father's Heart and listens to the voice of His Father as He leads him to do several things that did not seem to make sense; yet they were exactly what was needed. You will be encouraged in this day and age in which we are in a pitched battle between good and evil to have one of God's sons stepping into Government to support “We The People” of the USA! Remember no matter what you may hear through the fake news media. God is moving and He is about to break out in unexpected places in our nation. Is North Carolina one of those places?

This podcast addresses the question about why we seem to feel the need to help God out with our Calling and Destiny. One of my teenage children once told me that “he had it all under control”. Come listen to the context when this statement was made at 2:00am in the morning with the police on the phone. From a teenager's perspective nothing to worry about here “I got it all under control”. From a parent's perspective all hell was breaking loose. It was not just that I knew that he didn't have anything under control; but more frightening was the thought that he ‘thought' he had it under control. How could he be that clueless? Yet, I wonder when we make a mistake if God our Father doesn't ask Himself the same question. How could we be so clueless?  This podcast relates stories from Abraham's life an example of someone who felt the need to help God out with his calling and destiny. Don't we do the same thing? Whenever we do, it seems we create a mess. Why couldn't we just leave well enough alone? Why can't we trust God with our Calling and Destiny? What are the consequences of not trusting God? This last question subsumes that you know God as your Father in some way, and you still don't listen to Him. When you listen, you will be encouraged because no matter how many times you  fail, your Father is always there to help you out and get you back on track. He is a good, good Father! Absolutely Good! Do you know Him as your Father? When you listen to the Father's Heart Talk Show, we hope you will develop a longing to know God as your Father. Furthermore, if you already know Him in this way, you can always grow to know Him more and more with each new experience. Enjoy your life with Him through new experiences and your trust in Him will grow. Your relationship with Him will bring you to knowing yourself and to finding your Calling and Destiny. After all He knows your future and is waiting for you to get there. He is already in your tomorrow working things out before you get there!

The phase the bait of Satan is taking offense (This term is taken from the book “The Bait of Satan” by John Bevere. This podcast deals with the bait of Satan from the perspective of how it affects our destiny. Not to say that we will not reach our destiny, however, when we are offended, we are sidetracked from our destiny and that is the devil's plan. The only one who can stop you from reaching your own destiny is you. When you become offended you derail yourself from your own destiny. Come listen to two dreams the Lord gave me: one, a recent dream about choosing not to be offended and the second dream from 40 years ago concerns my own calling and destiny. I take two stories from The Bait of Satan book written by John Bevere that describes two Old Testament people who chose not to be offended and thereby were able to reach their destinies: Joseph and David. One was mistreated by his brothers, the other by his surrogate father, his father-in-law. Both resisted the bait of Satan and were blessed to see their destinies reached by the power and grace of God. In this day and age, much is presented to us through the media and social interaction that is intended to cause us to be offended. Don't take the bait! Remember bait is used in a trap to trap you! How is this accomplished? You get stuck in your emotions and cannot see straight. Remember the Accuser uses words to divide or destroy us. Words that offend us are designed to steal, kill and destroy our destinies. Don't take the bait! Listen to how you can overcome the temptation to be offended. Resist the devil and he will flee. As a side note, right after this podcast was created on my radio show I went out to breakfast at a Cracker Barrel. When I went to pay the bill, I asked the cashier what her name was? She replied her name was “Destiny”! Then she disappeared (Ha-ha, just kidding). God speaks to us in many ways. Open your heart to Him and ask Him to speak to you.

This podcast is a presentation of one of the great challenges our society is confronting today. Papa Tom's Tales emphasized the importance of words. We are in a war of words, and we cannot afford to give up an inch in this war. The word “Racism” has been used to incite painful emotions with the purpose of dividing us. What is the antidote? Come listen to stories that show how the spirit of Racism is disarmed. These stories are representative of the action steps we can take to disarm this evil spirit so that it cannot affect us. Rather than separating us as human beings, love connects us to one another. There is no racism in the Kingdom of Heaven. There is no racism in the Word, nor in the Heart of God. Racism is an evil spirit that has existed for thousands of years, in the last 161 years it shifted to apply to color of skin. Nonetheless, it is a manufactured idea whose purpose is to divide us so that Evil, working through evil people, will be able to exercise control over us. Do not take the bait. Listen and see if you can see behind the scenes. Come see beyond the evil intent the word racism incites. Come listen to examples of how to overcome the evil spirit of racism.

This podcast discusses the natural relationships we are given by Providential Design to help each one of us find our destiny. In Biblical Jewish culture, the name of a child was either given or ratified by the father of the child. This is significant because words are very important; names are given in words. Names can indicate destiny. Who has the right, the privilege, even the responsibility before God to name a child? The father of that child is given that responsibility. Come listen to experiences Papa Tom has had in his own life concerning father/son relationships and how these relationships impacted the destiny of the children involved. How has the relationship with your father impacted your calling and destiny in life? For those of you who do not have a natural father who has impacted your life by pointing you in the direction of your calling and destiny, was there a teacher or coach who stood in the gap and helped you in a father like way to point you in the direction of your destiny. Ultimately, God our Father knows each one of our destinies. He uses natural fathers, or people who have a Father's heart and disposition to guide us. This podcast will help you open your mind to consider who God your Father created you to be and who He has put in your life to help you on your journey. We see examples of these relationships all around us, yet though they are in plain sight, we often miss what God is doing in and through these father/son relationships. After all, the whole world was created through a Father/Son relationship….in the beginning was the Word……… Come and listen, enjoy and connect again with God Your Father!

This podcast exemplifies the reality that there is no such thing as coincidence. There is no word in Scripture for coincidence or random. My intersection with Veronika West was coincidental, though such a thing does not exist. We both have shared prophetic knowledge God gave to us four years apart concerning Donald Trump being compared to Jacob. Come listen to how God spoke to us in 2016 and then again in 2020 about God sending His angel to wrestle with Donald Trump just like He did with Jacob. I am bringing this forward with The Father's Heart Podcast because underlying this revelation was the premise that God could reach Donald's heart because he had a “father's heart” for his family and for the nation. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were the founding fathers of Scripture. George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and Donald J. Trump are the three fathers of America. The parallels are very interesting and revealing, particularly in light of the Third Great Awakening. Could this next move of God include the rebirth of America? Every birth needs a father!

This podcast discusses one of the methods God uses to reveal to us our Callings and Destiny: Dreams. It seems to me one of the principal ways our Father talks to us is through dreams. I am sure there are reasons for this, perhaps its because our rational mind is asleep, and our subconscious mind is awake. Nonetheless, it is very important to our success in life to understand who we are and what our Calling and Destiny is. How can anyone of us know our Calling and Destiny unless God speaks to us? Come listen to how Papa Tom was given a dream which purported to reveal the Calling and Destiny of one of the most important characters who God is using to wake up America: Dinesh D'Souza. Dreams are often quite simple in presentation and structure yet have such profound meanings in them when they are unpacked. There are symbols, metaphors, color and texture and feelings that dreams present to us. When we are awake, we can search out the hidden meanings to the different layers held within the pictures presented by our dreams. Most of all, dreams affect our lives. Good dreams in a good way. Bad dreams in a bad way.    Come listen to the dream about “Johnny Appleseed” and how such a dream points to Dinesh's calling and destiny to plant seeds (words) that will be received by many people who have fertile soil and will grow into a great harvest: The Third Great Awakening of America!

This is our best podcast to date. Come listen to our interview on radio with Dinesh D'Souza concerning the spiritual condition of America. Dinesh discusses his view of what has happened and what is happening with the “moral decay” of America and the corruption that has overtaken our political leaders and governing authorities. Dinesh's perspective is fresh and unbiased in that he comes from India and has been in America for 40 years, yet through all the problems he sees a pathway forward and hope for America in the next Great Awakening. What's most remarkable about this podcast is that God gave me a prophetic dream to give to him that describes Dinesh's calling to America. The dream speaks of the “Johnny Appleseed Anointing”. The words he speaks are like seeds. Understand the Biblical process of seed, plant and harvest. Dinesh's words are his seeds. As he speaks words that expose and reveal the truth, his words will find fertile soil in people's minds. The end result of this process is a glorious harvest! What is the harvest that God has anointed Dinesh to help lead? The harvest is the Third Great Awakening! Come listen to the words that will awaken your souls and ignite the fire of the Third and Last Great Awakening in America! When you listen to this podcast, listen intently to the nuances in the dialogue as Dinesh begins to open new territory describing the stirring up of prophets in this time. He gives us hope in the only solution we have left: God has to move on our behalf, and He will do so because He has promised us that He shall save America!

This podcast is an interview that transpired between a fellow podcaster, Pamela Christian, and me on the subject of the World Health Organization's attempt at Davos, Switzerland to overtake our nation's sovereignty in the healthcare arena.  Recognizing that the enemy of our souls is constantly pushing his agenda to control us, we must be aware of his initiatives, but not frightened or scared by them.  As children of God, we have the keys to the Kingdom. God our Father will allow what we allow and not allow what we do not allow. This podcast is a call to prayer concerning a move by the WHO to grab power and the complicity of the Biden Administration to throw We the People under the bus so to speak. This will not happen.  Come listen to Pamela's excellent research on this subject and the background information she provides to equip our listeners with accurate information so they can be informed about what is going on behind the scenes in our world today. Be encouraged, be of good cheer, the Lord our God is with us! Since He is with us, who can be against us? There is a call to action at the end of this podcast. We believe you will be blessed to learn what you can do to take a stand against evil. We bless you with the Father's heart to protect, provide and mentor all those under your metron (sphere of influence).  Come and listen, enjoy and connect again with God Your Father!

This podcast is consistent with The Fathers Heart Media's Mission statement as we interview Pastor Steve Heimbichner on the subject of the effect on our society of the absence of Fathers. Current events are discussed from the perspective of how our society is being embroiled in fear because the fathers are absent from the discussion. Recent events at the World Health Organization (WHO) wherein globalists with the complicity of the Biden administration are moving to grab power by shifting our national sovereignty over our own nation's health directives to the WHO. This is being done to many other nations as well. Members of the World Economic Forum are the globalists pushing their agenda in a meeting in Davos Switzerland in late May 2022. Come listen to how Steve and Papa Tom discuss what steps you can take to stand up for what is right from a Father's Heart perspective. Other issues such as education, Critical Race Theory, Racism, Abortion etc. are presented and new ideas are offered and suggested from a Biblical perspective how men who begin to exercise their roles and callings as fathers can change the trajectory of where our society and where the world is headed. For example, one new idea that was proffered is “Fathers for Life” a new initiative for fathers to get involved in the Pro Life Movement. Afterall, we know the end of the story, we win because our Father is sovereign, and He has told us in His Word that we win. The only question for you to decide is are you going to participate in what God our Father is doing or will you remain on the sidelines because you are afraid?

His albums Life After Rock N Roll (2017 Full Bloom Records) and The Midnight Strain (2018 Full Bloom Records) have been hailed by music publications and played on radio stations in the US, Canada, Germany, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands and Australia. Matt's sound is a clever blend of numerous styles of the music that have influenced him since his youth - early electric and country Blues, Rock N Roll, Rockabilly, Soul, R&B, Country, Bluegrass, Jazz and Psychedelia. His focus on making all original music by combining the influences that inspired him, along with his own ideas, have produced an exciting blend of many genres without rules or limitations.   His exposure to music came first came from his mother through her love of Motown. When Matt was 9 years old, she took him to a Prince concert and afterwards, he knew he wanted to be a musician. His musical education began with his late uncle who turned him onto a record collection that included early 1950's electric Blues and 1960's Rock which inspired Matt to play guitar. When he was 13, Matt got a knock off electric guitar for $25 at a flea market and set out to learn the instrument. He furthered his musical education when he began absorbing the music on old record labels, notably Chess, Sun and Stax .    Less than a decade later, he began performing in clubs and in the years to follow, he established himself as a highly regarded musician in the Blues world with his first release, Hard Luck (2007), as one of the few artists in the genre capable of writing relevant original material without relying on any cover songs from the past. The album got rave reviews in multiple music publications, radio play on stations around the world and a featured spot on XM 74 Satellite Radio as a 'Pick to Click'. Around this time Matt joined Bob Margolin (guitarist for Muddy Waters 1973-1980) and performed with some of his heroes, legendary artists like Howlin' Wolf's guitarist Hubert Sumlin and members of Muddy Water's band, Pinetop Perkins and Willie "Big Eyes" Smith.   While he was looking for a new direction to expand his music, Matt started working with drummer Austin Hicks after they met on Craigslist in 2013. They formed the drum-guitar duo, the Low Counts and branded themselves as, "Blue Collar Rock-N-Roll". They turned heads, made dedicated fans and blew audiences away with their no frills, high energy stage show. Their ride was cut short on March 8th 2017 when Austin passed away unexpectedly. Matt wrote 27 songs that the duo released over three albums in the four short years they were together (The Low Counts 2014 Real Original Records, Unsettled Days 2015 Grimtale Records, Years Pass By 2015 Real Original Records) Matt released his first full length solo studio album in almost a decade, Life After Rock N Roll' (2017 Full Bloom Records). The album reignited his standing as a solo artist and found him stretching out to make powerful, refined music that was entirely different than any of his previous works and his third full length studio album, The Midnight Strain (2018 Full Bloom Records) built upon that success. Matt released his fourth full length studio album 'Burnt Out Soul' (Full Bloom Records) on September 25th 2020 that he recorded at the legendary Columbia Records Studio A on Music Row in Nashville TN.   Iris Marlowe is a singer-songwriter from Chicago, IL. Iris has been playing and writing music since she was 3 years old. She begun taking music seriously in 2018 and started to cultivate her sound. After releasing two albums 'Savannah' (2019) and 'Winter Solace' (2020) she decided to work on a western album inspired by spaghetti westerns and the occult. 'Home' is the first single to be released from the upcoming album. It's a folk song from the record that focuses on the reflection and acceptance you feel when you outgrow the place you grew up in.
