Circle Of Life | Intro | Christ Stronghold | Part 20 | Dan Zimuwandeyi | Friday 31 October 2025

A stronghold is a place of safety, fortified to protect inhabitants; where people can feel secure, surrounded by high, sturdy walls. Dr. Doug Huffman shares from his book, "The Stronghold of the Chosen: An Interactive Bible Study for Season 5 of The Chosen."

Welcome back, friends! We're wrapping up our BECOMING Series with a powerful reunion—Hannah Marks is back! When Hannah first joined us in July 2024 (Episode 18), she had just experienced breakthrough freedom from 18 years of debilitating anxiety and physical bondage on Saint Patrick's Day 2019. Today, she returns to share how that spiritual freedom launched her into an unexpected calling: helping women and men reclaim their health through body, mind, and soul healing. As a certified health coach and founder of Whole by Hannah, Hannah specializes in hormone regulation, personalized nutrition, and root-cause healing—all anchored in a deep relationship with Jesus. Her approach isn't about quick fixes or band-aids; it's about transformation from the inside out. If you've been on a years-long journey trying to figure out what's wrong—if you've been told your labs are normal but you feel anything but—this conversation is for you. Hannah understands because she's lived it. And now she's helping countless women get their lives back. In This Episode Hannah Shares: How her pivotal Saint Patrick's Day 2019 moment of commanding anxiety to leave changed everything Why we need Jesus AND practical health wisdom—not either/or but both/and HerBody, Mind, Soul framework for becoming whole The difference between spiritual strongholds and physical dysfunction Why 92% of Americans have an insulin issue (and how to fix it in 2 weeks!) The two root causes behind most health issues: insulin or hormones How birth control and infertility treatments disrupt your body's hormone production Why whole foods matter and what happened when she ate a Krispy Kreme donut The mind games we play with ourselves and how to break negative thought patterns Her powerful message: "It's never too late"—as long as you're breathing, you can transform Walking through divorce while staying whole in Christ Why your body isn't broken—it's trying to communicate with you About Hannah Marks: Originally from Great Britain, Hannah Marks has called the United States home for 30 years. After having her thyroid removed and struggling with strokes, autoimmune conditions, and debilitating anxiety for nearly two decades, Hannah experienced complete spiritual freedom in 2019. This breakthrough transformed not only her life but launched her into a new calling. For the past five years, Hannah has been helping women and men become whole through her health coaching practice, Whole by Hannah. She specializes in reading comprehensive blood work, addressing insulin resistance and hormone imbalances, and teaching people how to fuel their bodies with whole foods—all while grounding everything in a deep relationship with Jesus. At 48, Hannah says her body looks and feels better than ever. She's a devoted mom to Will (16) and London, actively involved at Connect Church in Springfield, Missouri, and finds her strength in daily time with Jesus—especially during this current season of walking through an unwanted divorce with grace and faith. Hannah's Heart: "It's never too late. As long as you're breathing and you're alive today, you have the opportunity to turn everything around. You have the opportunity to turn your life around, your body around, your emotions—everything. It's never too late." Pull up a chair, beloved. This conversation will minister to your weary soul AND body.

Originally from Great Britain, Hannah has called the United States home for the past 30 years, though her charming British accent remains unmistakably intact. Hannah's journey into holistic health wasn't planned—it was deeply personal. After having her thyroid removed 18 years ago, she spent nearly two decades struggling with what doctors thought were strokes, autoimmune conditions, debilitating anxiety, depression, and complex health issues that left her desperate for answers. Despite countless doctor visits, medications, and being told "your labs are normal," Hannah knew something was deeply wrong. Everything changed on Saint Patrick's Day 2019 when, after reading The Bondage Breaker by Neil T. Anderson, Hannah discovered she had a stronghold of fear over her life. In a powerful moment at church, she commanded the spirit of anxiety to leave in Jesus' name—and it did. After ten months of continuous anxiety attacks, she was instantly and completely free. But Hannah's freedom journey didn't stop there. As a pastor's kid who grew up in "the most beautiful home," she realized that if she didn't understand her authority in Christ, countless other women didn't either. This spiritual breakthrough led her to pursue answers for her physical health, eventually connecting with a doctor who helped her understand insulin resistance, hormone imbalances, and the power of whole foods. For the past five years, Hannah has been guiding women and men through their own transformative journeys. She specializes in comprehensive blood work analysis, addressing the two root causes of most health issues (insulin or hormones), personalized nutrition, and teaching people to advocate for their own health—all while grounding everything in a relationship with Jesus Christ. At 48, Hannah says her body looks and feels better than ever. She's a proud mom to Will (16) and London, teaches elementary music two days a week at her children's school, actively serves at Connect Church in Springfield, Missouri, and finds her daily strength in quiet time with Jesus. Currently walking through an unwanted divorce, Hannah is living proof that it's never too late to become whole—body, mind, and soul. Her clients consistently say they've "gotten their lives back," experiencing reversed diabetes, balanced hormones, renewed energy, and rediscovered joy.

Defense spending is "the most resilient sector in all of investing," says EdgeRunner AI CEO Tyler Saltsman. The backing of the U.S. government and bipartisan views of defense are why he's so confident cutbacks aren't coming. Tyler also explains how Palantir (PLTR) proved resiliency in space and adds how his own company uses A.I. with the U.S. military.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

MERIMNAO: root word is the idea of your MIND BEING DIVIDED in 100 different directions.Matthew 6:25a “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life…“The presence of anxiety is unavoidable, but the prison of anxiety is optional.”—Max LucadoMatthew 6:25b what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear.Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?The root issue of anxiety is our desire for CONTROL.At the core of anxiety is the DESIRE to CONTROL that which WE CAN'T CONTROL.Where are you trying to be in control?Matthew 6:26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? What you are trying to CONTROL the MOST reveals where you TRUST GOD the LEAST.Where you TRUST God the LEAST is what you will WORRY about MOST.HENCE: What you WORRY about the most often reveals where you TRUST God the least.Matthew 6:27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?Worry never helps SOLVE tomorrow's problems, it only ROBS today of its joy.Matthew 6:34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.“No man ever sank under the burden of the day. It is when tomorrow's burden is added to the burden of today, that the weight is more than a man can bear.”—George Macdonald.Matthew 6:31-32 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?' or ‘What shall we drink?' or ‘What shall we wear?' For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.Our WEAK SPOT with worry is often a STRONGHOLD where we haven't put God first.Matthew 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.1. What are you trying to CONTROL the most?2. How can you start PUTTING GOD FIRST in that area of your life today?Our weak spot with worry is often a stronghold where we have not put God first.

Scripture: David's Psalms. This is the final teaching in the “David…and the Heart of God” series. We will explore David's Psalms today. In 2 Samuel 23:1 we read that David is described as the sweet psalmist of Israel.  David's psalms have influence and spoke to the hearts of people for millennia.   C.S. Lewis said, “The most valuable thing the psalms do for me is to express that small delight in God which made David dance.”  And Billy Graham said, “I used to read five psalms every day - that teaches me how to get along with God. Then I read a chapter of Proverbs every day and that teaches me how to get along with my fellow man.” 75 of the 150 Psalms were written by David. Some themes in David's Psalms with a few examples: Praise - Psalm 95:1-2, Psalm 57:9-11, Psalm 103:1-3. We are encouraged to begin everything with praise, it honors God and brings refreshment to our souls. Praise takes our eyes off ourselves and putts them on God. True meaning for life is found only in God our Savior. David teaches us to praise the Lord from the heart even when we feel like we're at the bottom of the pit, because God heals and His name is to be praised. Penitence - Psalm 32:1-2 & 5, Psalm 139:23-24, Psalm 51:1-2. David's psalms help us recognize we are spiritually poor and needy and we are to be humble before God because we are all sinners. David shows us words of confession for transgression because we can be confident that through faith in Christ, God forgives. Our sins are paid for through Jesus' sacrificial death.  The Lord is merciful, He washes away our sin. Presence - Psalm 32:7, Psalm 145:18.  God is near, He is present, we cannot flee from Him. His presence gives hope and healing. He is near to all who call Him. He is unfailingly present in our lives. Prayer - Psalm 25:4-5, Psalm 141, 2-4.  Psalms are used for prayer, and are a good way to begin our day. They guide us in how to pray honestly before God and we see that through David's prayerful words we can draw near to the Lord. David's Psalms are filled with words asking the Lord for guidance, direction, strength against sin, power for the spiritual battle, and prayers seeking God and His face. Protection - Psalm:1 & 3, Psalm 18:1-2, Psalm 55:18 7 22. The Lord is our Protector and the One who defends us and we are to call upon Him.  He is the Stronghold of our lives.  God is our Rock, Shield, our Strength, our place of Refuge, our Fortress, our Deliverer. The Lord sustains us and He cares for us. Prophecy - Psalm 110:1, Psalm 22:1 & 16018 & 29-31. David spoke much prophecy about the coming Messiah. David shared prophetic words even about the day that Jesus would be on the cross a thousand years before Jesus' death. David understood prophetically the love of Jesus who would say, “It is finished.” And through prophetic understanding David saw the finished work of Christ. Pastor ends by encouraging us to read through David's Psalms this week: 2-9, 11-32, 34-41, 51-65, 68-70, 86, 95, 101, 103, 108-110, 122, 124, 131, 133, 138-145 Now What?

Personal coaching, deliverance, e-courses, training for ministry, and mentorships! https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/training/#   For years I thought I was battling fear, only to realize I was really bound by a strongman of torment. Maybe you've prayed, fasted, and tried to cast out fear or anxiety but still felt stuck. The truth is, sometimes what we're calling fear, stress, or worry may actually be torment—and until we evict the strongman, the cycle continues. In this powerful teaching, I share my personal journey of 40 years under fear and how the Holy Spirit revealed the deeper root of torment that needed to be broken. You'll learn how to identify whether you're dealing with fear, anxiety, stress, or torment, and how generational curses and family patterns may have contributed to your battle. More importantly, you'll discover practical steps, deliverance strategies, and spiritual warfare prayers to break free once and for all. Freedom is possible. Jesus Christ delivered me, and He will deliver you. Don't stay locked down in torment—expose the enemy, break agreement with his lies, and walk out the mental freedom Christ already purchased for you. #deliverance #fear #anxiety #mentalhealth #freedom   **Connect with Us** - Website: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/  - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kathydegraw/  - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathydegraw/    Podcast - Subscribe to our YouTube channel and listen to Kathy's Podcast called Prophetic Spiritual Warfare, or on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/show/3mYPPkP28xqcTzdeoucJZu  or Apple podcasts at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/prophetic-spiritual-warfare/id1474710499    **Recommended Resources:** - Receive a free prayer pdf on Warfare Prayer Declarations at https://kathydegrawministries.org/declarations-download  - Kathy's training, mentoring and e-courses on Spiritual Warfare, Deliverance and the Prophetic: https://training.kathydegrawministries.org/  - Healed At Last ~ Overcome Sickness and Receive your Physical Healing: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/healed-at-last/  - Mind Battles – Root Out Mental Triggers to Release Peace!: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/product/mind-battles-pre-order-available-january-2023/  -Kathy has several books available on Amazon or kathydegrawministries.org   **Support Kathy DeGraw Ministries:** - Give a one-time love offering or consider partnering with us for $15, $35, $75 or any amount!

This week we are joined by translator Max Lawton to celebrate the release of Michael Lenz's Schattenfroh from Deep Vellum. But rather than focus only on this one book, we open the conversation to a wider theme: the joy of reading books that resist. These are works that don't give themselves up on a first pass, that refuse to be solved, that instead teach us how to read them as we go. With Schattenfroh as our starting point, we wander through the labyrinths of these kinds of books, asking why surrounding to the unknown might be one of the great rewards of reading.We've got some fantastic author-focused episodes lined up for the foreseeable future, and we want to give you plenty of time to dive in if you'd like to read along with us.

Ephesians 4:20–21 reminds us: “That, however, is not the way of life you learned when you heard about Christ and were taught in Him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus.”Sister, this passage calls us to take a hard look at what doesn't line up with Christ—and name it. Whether it's fear, comparison, overeating, self-hatred, or shame, you have the authority in Jesus to say: “____ is not the way of life I learned in Christ.”In this episode, I'll challenge you to fill in that blank for yourself and surrender it to God.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. The Israeli military said this morning that it was set to begin ground operations in Deir al-Balah for the first time since the start of the war, issuing an evacuation order for Palestinians in the southwest of the city in the central Gaza Strip. Deir al-Balah is one of the few places in the Strip where the military has not yet operated with ground troops because it believed Hamas to be holding hostages there, though it has conducted airstrikes in the city. Fabian spells out scenarios why the IDF is now ready to operate there. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office issued a statement late Thursday expressing its regret after IDF tank fire killed three civilians in Gaza’s only Catholic church, heeding a demand from US President Donald Trump, who angrily phoned the Israeli premier over the incident. Following the fatal strike, the Latin patriarch, Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the highest-ranking Catholic official in Jerusalem, entered the Gaza Strip on Friday alongside Theophilos III, the Greek Orthodox patriarch of Jerusalem. Fabian describes the events that led to the accidental shelling. Dozens of Gazans were reportedly killed near aid distribution sites in the past few days. The Israeli military said it had fired warning shots at suspects who approached its troops after they did not heed calls to stop, about a kilometer away from an aid site that was not active at the time.The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a US-backed group that runs the aid site, said there were no incidents or fatalities there on Saturday and that it has repeatedly warned people not to travel to its distribution points in the dark. Fabian discusses the refusals from the IDF and the GHF for reporters to visit the sites and help clear up the tangled narratives. Israel is preparing to send medical equipment and medicine to a hospital in the Druze-majority city of Sweida, in southern Syria, after days of violence left an estimated 900 people dead and the medical facility badly damaged, the Health Ministry announced on Saturday. We hear about the IDF's involvement in the Syrian province over the past week and how hundreds of Israeli Druze have breached the border -- sometimes repeatedly. What does this mean about Israel's security along the border? Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

MOMENT FROM: Captain EJ vs. The Knucklers [EP 2]Hero… there's a reason we don't talk about the Stronghold unless we're already inside it. Behind two steel doors and a vault sealed as tight as can be, there's a part of me I try to keep locked up too—my full strength. You've rarely seen it unleashed. Hardly anyone has. But in this part of Captain EJ vs. The Knucklers…it nearly broke loose.What happens when power meets pressure? When sound itself becomes a force of power?Come with me into the hum of silence, into the heart of the Stronghold, where one slip of a button nearly turned thought into fallout. You'll see why I keep this side of me hidden—and why, Hero, I'm glad you were there to see it.BEGIN YOUR ADVENTURE AT EP1:
