On the Flyover Conservatives Show, David and Stacy Whited sit down with Dr. Laura Sanger to uncover the hidden spiritual battle over sound, music, worship, and frequency. Dr. Sanger connects Genesis 6, the Nephilim, the seed war, Babylonian programming, and modern music to reveal how sound has been used to shape minds, influence culture, and wage war in the unseen realm. This conversation dives into controversial topics like 440Hz tuning, 528Hz frequencies, healing sound, worship as warfare, and the power of what comes through your speakers. Dr. Sanger also explains how worship in spirit and truth can break bondage, shift atmospheres, and release the sound of heaven into your home. If you've ever wondered why music is so powerful, what the Bible says about sound, or whether there is a hidden war behind what we hear every day, this episode is for you.TO WATCH ALL FLYOVER CONTENT: www.theflyoverapp.com Follow and Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFlyoverConservativesShow To Schedule A Time To Talk To Dr. Dr. Kirk Elliott Go To ▶ https://flyovergold.comOr Call 720-605-3900 ► Receive your FREE 52 Date Night Ideas Playbook to make date night more exciting, go to www.prosperousmarriage.comLaura SangerWEBSITE: https://nolongerenslaved.com/YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcbPNOcBFUZVcsuJ_SSHs1A INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/laurasanger444hz/ BOOKS: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Laura-Sanger-Ph.D./author/B08R44HV8X?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1753368528&sr=8-1&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=8caef8ee-ffbc-40a5-8bdf-961be0053a79 Dr. Laura Sanger is a wife, mother, author, speaker, and retired Clinical Psychologist with a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and an M.A. in Theology from Fuller Theological Seminary.

The Suffering of The Saints - The End of Days, A 30-Day Devotional #14 by Shawn Ozbun
In this video, I cover Trump’s response to questions about the U.S. strike on an Iranian elementary school that reportedly killed 168 children on the first day of the war. Rather than address the deaths or discuss accountability, Trump says nobody will be held responsible, points to an investigation that is still ongoing, and expresses […]
First in a new series, let's uncork us some theology! Across the pod I will explain why "just the Bible alone" (Protestant) perspectives aren't possible, what are the time-tested definitions of theology (& why theologians like definitions), why reason plays a role in Christian theology, the long-standing interface between theology and philosophy, and the role of culture on and in theology. And then, what makes theology good, helpful, and edifying? What makes theology bad, destructive, and soul-poisoning? At the show's opening I work through—noting the Bible's own cues about government—the election debacle in Los Angeles. Come and enjoy a laugh along the way with me.
When everything around a church is changing, how can it rediscover who God has called it to be? In this episode we welcome Rev. Dr. Ryan Jackson, Senior Pastor of the Capital Church near Raleigh, North Carolina, to talk about his experience in the CPT's first Church Identity Cohort.Ryan reflects on 17 years of ministry through seasons of change, staff transitions, and post-pandemic challenges that prompted his church to revisit foundational questions of identity and mission. We discuss the connection between pastoral and ecclesial identity, the role of theological reflection in church life, and the importance of forming leaders who can faithfully guide congregations into the future.We also explore the value of mentoring, cross-denominational dialogue, and collaborative discernment as churches seek a deeper understanding of who God has called them to be.Whether you're a pastor, church leader, or ministry team member, this episode offers practical encouragement for leading with clarity, conviction, and a strong sense of church identity.Join us at the CPT Conference

In this episode of Trailer Parked Theology, Josh and Kristi kick things off with a few laughs, a "real-time revelation." But the conversation quickly turns toward something much deeper as they dive into 1 John 3 and the incredible truth of God's love.What does it mean to be called a child of God? Why does John place such a strong emphasis on love? And how can we learn to see ourselves through the Father's eyes instead of the world's?Along the way, Josh and Kristi reflect on parenting, growing older, appreciating the season you're in, and how some of life's simplest sayings often point us toward eternal truths.In This Episode The myth (and reality) behind "If you build it, they will come" Why summer feels different in every season of parenting The parenting advice we didn't appreciate until later Finding spiritual lessons in everyday conversations Real-time revelations and unexpected insights If this episode encouraged you, share it with a friend, leave a review, and help us continue bringing practical theology into everyday life.

In this conversation, Carl Trueman joins me and Scott Rae for one of the most wide-ranging episodes we've recorded. We get into CS Lewis, Nietzsche's madman, the anthropological question at the heart of every cultural debate, the sexual revolution, pornography, contraception (where Trueman calls himself "a work in progress"), IVF, surrogacy, end-of-life decisions, and how Christians sometimes mirror the secular world's trivialization of death.

On today's Text-Driven Tuesday we come to, what appears to be, a minor story about Abraham cutting a covenant with Abimelech. But is it so unimportant? Tune in as Jay and George attempt to uncover some extremely significant truths from a seemingly insignificant text. On today's Text-Driven Tuesday, we see that in Genesis 21:1-7, the promised son has finally arrived! But is he the main focus of this passage? Or is there something more to the text? Join the conversation as Jay and George look at four key words in Genesis 21, and what they tell us about God and the promised son. Conformed to Christ aims to engage the mind, affect the heart, and call people to follow Christ. Additionally, our aim is to introduce and explain passages of Scripture and difficult theological doctrines in a down-to-earth and easy-to-grasp manner. Theology and the Bible should impact your life, and our goal is that we might play a small part in seeing that happen. Conformed to Christ is a ministry of Christ's Fellowship Church. https://cfclawton.org/ ***Be sure to subscribe on YouTube, iTunes, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Podbean, and Amazon Music Youtube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCgQBeT-Mj1CmngPdhZyWybQ iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/conformed-to-christ/id1503247486 Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkLnBvZGJlYW4uY29tL2NvbmZvcm1lZHRvY2hyaXN0L2ZlZWQueG1s Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5YruCZu4hla6Ll3rBu7UPY

Season 2, Episode 117In this episode, Michael and Zach begin a new series exploring the biblical relationship between sin, desire, identity, and the gospel. Before addressing contemporary debates surrounding temptation, same-sex attraction, identity language, and pastoral qualification, they lay a theological foundation by asking a more basic question: What is sin? Many Christians think of sin primarily as outward behavior, but Scripture presents a much deeper picture. Sin includes not only our actions, but also our nature, desires, motives, and inclinations. Drawing from passages such as Romans 3, Romans 5, Mark 7, James 1, and Matthew 5, the discussion examines original sin, total depravity, the corruption inherited from Adam, and the way sinful desires arise from the fallen human heart. Along the way, Michael and Zach explain why Christianity's diagnosis of the human condition is far more profound than mere behavior modification, and why the gospel offers something greater than self-improvement. Ultimately, the episode argues that because sin reaches to the very core of who we are, we need more than better habits—we need regeneration, the righteousness of Christ, and the transforming grace of God.Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/RPlWcSZgE50Merch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stoneLicense code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com
In this episode, Ben Norquist and Brian Miller make the case that American Christians have become a placeless, rootless people and that we are shaped by inherited land stories. That our land is exceptional. That property is something to wall off. That the ground exists to be taken and turned into wealth. We dig into where these stories came from, how they affect our faith, and why it matters that Scripture opens with God calling place good. We talk about how to read the place you actually live, whose stories get monuments and whose get erased, and what better land stories, ones shaped more like Jesus, might look like.Dr. Ben Norquist is a writer, researcher, and communications strategist whose work explores how Christian understandings of land shape mora/l imagination and public life. He serves with the Bethlehem Institute for Peace & Justice, engaging American Christians on questions of theology, justice, and the realities in Palestine. He is co-author of Every Somewhere Sacred: Rescuing a Theology of Place in the American Imagination (InterVarsity Press, 2026).Brian Miller (PhD, University of Notre Dame) is professor of sociology at Wheaton College and regularly teaches about and publishes on Christian residential and cultural patterns. His books include Sanctifying Suburbia: How the Suburbs Becamethe Promised Land for American Evangelicals and Building Faith: A Sociology of Religious Structures, coauthored with Robert Brenneman.Ben & Brian's Book:Every Somewhere SacredConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@shiftingculturepodcast.comGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

Daniel 7 records one of the most dramatic visions in Scripture. In it, the prophet Daniel sees the Ancient of Days seated on a heavenly throne while “one like the Son of Man” approaches Him and receives an everlasting kingdom.This passage raises an important theological question: Does this vision reveal two distinct divine persons, or is it portraying something else?In this episode of Apostolic Life in the 21st Century, Dr. David K. Bernard examines Daniel 7:9-28 and addresses a common challenge raised against Oneness theology. He explores the identities of the Ancient of Days and the Son of Man and discusses whether Daniel's vision teaches the preexistence of the Son as a separate divine person. Along the way, Dr. Bernard considers what Daniel's prophecy reveals about the Messiah, the Incarnation, and the relationship between Jesus Christ and the Father.Whether you are studying the Godhead, exploring the differences between Trinitarian and Oneness theology, or seeking a deeper understanding of one of Scripture's most fascinating prophetic visions, this episode offers a thoughtful examination of a frequently debated passage.Apostolic Life in the 21st Century with Dr. David K.

Flee The Strange Women; Fear The LORD: Psalm 126-128 & Proverbs 5 by Shawn Ozbun
Over the last several years, God has been saving thousands of people in one state in South Asia - all glory to God! Glenn and Rhonda have led out in this work, and have some helpful keys that contributed to this growth. Two keys in particular are easy access to the Scriptures (in audio form on SD cards) and extraordinary prayer. Also listen in to hear how simple tracking methods are not primarily used to "count churches," but in order to provide a road map for believers, and a symbol of their significance in God's Kingdom. Ordinary believers are empowered to know God's Word well, mature in their faith (including practice and theology), and lead many others to faith in Jesus Christ. Praise God for how HE is working to seek and save the lost. Glenn and Rhonda have some excellent resources to share (in English, Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi, Gujrati, and Nepali).

TL;DRToday we open the doors. Crossroads Publishing Group—a hybrid publisher of serious nonfiction in Chattanooga—announces the Crossroads Commons, our founding membership. Three tiers; fifty lifetime Founder spots, ever.• Join the Commons → crossroadspublishing.group/commons• Publish with us → crossroadspublishing.group/engagements• The catalog → crossroadspublishing.group/catalog• Questions → chad@crossroadspublishing.groupMost small presses spend their first year trying to look like a big press. We're not doing that. A hybrid publisher of serious nonfiction, based in Chattanooga, founded this year, built around the idea that books are occasions for community—and that the press's job is to take that seriously.The Long StoryA few weeks ago I made a decision about how Crossroads Publishing Group would set itself apart: a real commitment to relationship. Then, on a mountain bike trail a few days ago, the bigger version of the idea arrived. It's not just relationship—one-on-one, editor and author. It's community. And once you see it, you can't unsee it: leadership books end at community. Recovery books end at community. Theology, parenting, loneliness, climate—trace the actual argument and the topic turns out to be the doorway in. Community is the thing itself.So I'm building the press to take that seriously, not as a marketing line, but as operating structure. Today's episode lays out the whole thing.Five structural commitments:* Every Crossroads author gets a direct-purchase URL for their community—their people buy from the press, their royalty is higher, and the relationship stays out of the algorithm.* Every book launches with an event in the author's community, wherever they live.* Every Crossroads author appears on The Difficulty.* Authors meet each other—the catalog becomes a community of minds, not a list of titles.* Readers get a structured way to belong to the press: the Crossroads Commons, open today.The Commons, three tiers:* Reader — $200/year. Every new title shipped to your door on publication day. A quarterly Circle Letter. 20% off direct orders. Your name in the colophon of every title shipped during your membership year.* Patron — $500/year. Everything above, plus a signed limited-edition hardcover each year (printed exclusively for Patrons), an invitation to the annual Crossroads gathering, private author Q&As at every launch, and 30% off.* Founder — $1,000, one time, lifetime. Limited to the first 50, ever. All Patron benefits in perpetuity, your name permanently in the colophon of every title we publish during your lifetime, and one annual meal or coffee with me. When the 50 are filled, that door closes forever.The Commons isn't a subscription to this podcast, The Difficulty stays free, always. It's membership in the press itself. And you shouldn't join from obligation or scarcity pressure. Join because the editorial direction and the community we're forming matter to you, and you want to be part of the early conversation.→ Join the Crossroads CommonsThe four doors, if you're wondering which is yours:* Authors — from a $750 Legacy Audit to the full Compile to Publish engagement (print + ebook + audiobook, six to eight months): crossroadspublishing.group/engagements* Readers — the Circle: crossroadspublishing.group/circle* Writers developing a manuscript in community — the First Draft Cohort, applications open July 13, inaugural class begins September 14.* Just want a book? — crossroadspublishing.group/catalog — William James's The Varieties of Religious Experience is in print now; Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own is next (and I'm narrating the audiobook myself)This is your moment to step in.—Chad This is a public episode.

Imitation is a huge part of the human experience, as we imitate role models and loved ones. Oscar Wilde called it the 'highest form of flattery'. But what did imitation – or mimesis – look like in early Christianity? To find out, Helen and Lloyd take a trip in the time machine with Professor Cornelis Bennema. They discuss what imitation meant in the ancient world, how the New Testament writers adapted the concept, and why Paul instructs his listeners to 'imitate me'. Dr Cornelis (‘Cor') Bennema is Head of Research and Professor of New Testament Studies at the London School of Theology. His main research interests include the Johannine literature, character studies in biblical narrative and early Christian ethics. He is the author of a number of works on mimesis, most recently Imitation in Early Christianity: Mimesis and Religious-Ethical Formation (Eerdmans, 2025).

"Evolution is a settled fact!" we're often told by scientists, science popularizers, and probably have seen this statement not a few times on social media. But there has been another, perhaps less-noticed trend in the evolutionary sciences today. There is an ever-increasing academic dissent against evolution by means of natural selection as the best explanation for the variety of life we see on Earth today. The more scientists probe the wonders of living organisms, and the stunningly overwhelming variety of species that exist today, the more improbable the Neo-Darwinian account of the diversification of species seems to many. This week on the Profile we feature a conversation with the President of Reasons to Believe, biochemist, author, and Christian apologist Dr. Fuz Rana. We'll discuss some of the key reasons why intelligent design in biology is seemingly making a comeback. We go beyond mere intelligent design though, and discuss the specifics of how design in biology and in the universe points us back to Scripture and ultimately to Christ. Fuz's Testimony and Background: "As a graduate student studying biochemistry, I was captivated by the cell's complexity, elegance, and sophistication. The inadequacy of evolutionary scenarios to account for life's origin compelled me to conclude that life must come from a Creator. Reading through the Sermon on the Mount convinced me that Jesus really was who Christians claimed him to be: Lord and Savior. Still, encouraging others to join me in following Christ wasn't important to me—until my father died. His death changed that. In 1999, I left my position in research and development at a Fortune 500 company to join Reasons to Believe. I felt the most important thing I could do as a scientist was to show Christians and non-Christians alike the powerful scientific evidence for God's existence and for the reliability of the Bible."Free Resources from Watchman Fellowship Naturalism: https://www.watchman.org/Naturalism/ProfileNaturalism.pdfScientism: https://www.watchman.org/scientism/ProfileScientism.pdfPanpsychism: https://www.watchman.org/files/ProfilePanpsychism.pdfAtheism: https://www.watchman.org/profiles/pdf/atheismprofile.pdfAdditional ResourcesFREE: We are also offering a subscription to our 4-page bimonthly Profiles here: www.watchman.org/FreePROFILE NOTEBOOK: Order the complete collection of Watchman Fellowship Profiles (around 700 pages -- from Astrology to Zen Buddhism) in either printed or PDF formats here: www.watchman.org/NotebookSUPPORT: Help us create more content like this.

ALIENS vs GOD? Would Disclosure Shatter Religion? What happens if humanity learns we are not alone? Steven Spielberg's upcoming film Disclosure Day raises a question that has fascinated scientists, theologians, and governments for generations: If extraterrestrial life is proven beyond any doubt, what happens next? Would confirmation of alien civilizations strengthen religious belief—or challenge it? Does the Bible leave room for intelligent life beyond Earth, or would disclosure force humanity to rethink some of its oldest stories about creation and our place in the universe? Karel explores the philosophical, religious, and political implications of alien disclosure, government secrecy, and whether the public has a right to know if world leaders already possess evidence of extraterrestrial life. Also on today's show:
Who was Hermann Sasse, and why is it important to study his work today? The Rev. Dr. Matthew Harrison (President of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod) joins us for part one of a three-part series on the life and work of pastor, theologian, and author Hermann Sasse to talk about Sasse's early life, the political and religious context surrounding his early years, and the theological influences that shaped his formation as a pastor and theologian. As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let's be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.

This episode is a followup on my interview with Professor Joerg Rieger. The intent of all of Professor Rieger’s work, including the subject of my first interview with him about his book, Theology in the Capitalocene: Ecology, Identity, Class, and Solidarity, is that theology should have an affect on one’s lifestyle and an impact on the world. In order to realize that intent, Professor Rieger established and is the founding Director of the Wendland-Cook Program in Religion and Justice. The Wendland-Cook Program in Religion and Justice is an interdisciplinary program located at Vanderbilt University Divinity School. Its focus is on issues of justice that arise at the intersection of religion, economics, and ecology. Founded in 2019 and supported by a generous gift from Barbara Wendland, the mission of the program is to develop resources and opportunities for students, scholars, clergy, and activists to envision and create a more just and sustainable world for all. In addition to being the founding Director of the Wendland-Cook Program, Professor Rieger is Distinguished Professor of Theology and The Cal Turner Chancellor's Chair in Wesleyan Studies. Joining us in this interview is Gab Lisi. Gab (she/they/he) is the Assistant Director of the Wendland-Cook Program at Vanderbilt University and Vanderbilt Divinity School. Gab resides in Columbus, OH and their dog, Franklin (or Frank). They hold an M.Div. from Union Theological Seminary, an MSL from The Ohio State University, and a B.A. in Theology and Criminal Justice from Xavier University (Cincinnati, OH). They are curious about power analysis, class analysis, and Catholicism. In their spare time, you can find them at home reading, camping with Frank, or hanging out with friends.

Faith Without Favoritism - James James 2: 1-13 Ben Coggin
Sermon delivered by Fr. Wesley Walker on Sunday, June 14, 2026.View Transcript:https://tinyurl.com/Sermon-2026-06-14-Trinity-2
Fr. Mike connects today's reading from Songs to the teachings of St. John Paul's Theology of the Body. He also points out how helpful it is to track the timelines of the kings of Israel and Judah as we read from Kings and Chronicles simultaneously. The readings are 1 Kings 15-16, 2 Chronicles 16-17, and Song of Solomon 4. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

Struggling with worry and anxiety? No matter what you're struggling with, discover how to cast your cares on God.Receive It's easy to feel overwhelmed with worries, cares, and anxious thoughts, but you're not meant to carry all those burdens on your own. Jesus said not to worry, and the apostle Paul said to cast all your cares on God. What are you worried about? What may be hindering you from trusting God with your worries, anxious thoughts, cares, and concerns? What could your next step toward trusting God more and worrying less look like? Reflect How does it feel knowing that God wants you to cast all your cares on Him as it says in 1 Peter 5:7 and that we're to be anxious for nothing as you read in Philippians 4:6–7? How does Matthew 6:19–34 help you to not worry so much about tomorrow? How does the good soil Jesus mentioned in His parable found in Luke 8:4–18 differ from the other soil He mentioned? How can you stay focused on what matters most like Mary in Luke 10:38– 42 instead of being distracted by good things like Martha? How does Timothy's genuine concern for the well-being of the Philippian church that the apostle Paul commended him for in Philippians 2:14–24 differ from unhealthy worry? Respond (Use this prayer to start a conversation with God) “Dear God, thank You that I don't have to be consumed with worry and anxious thoughts. Thank You that I can go to You with all my cares and concerns. Help me to keep trusting You no matter my circumstances.” Discover more about the topics in this episode with these recommended resources Mentioned in this episode: Resilient Bible Engagement and "The Power of 4": A Key to Spiritual Growth| Center for Bible Engagement| Our Daily Bread Listen: Resilient Don't Worry!

BREAKING: Trump Signs Peace Deal With Iran — Israel Immediately Rejects It
Iran Pulls Out of Peace Deal – Guess Who Sabotaged It!
Every human being has troubles. And sometimes our troubles overwhelm us. We live in a culture that encourages us to turn inward and endlessly process our troubles, yet this self-focused rumination often distorts our theology and leaves us doubting God's goodness. In this sermon, we look at how Psalm 77 calls God's people to shift their gaze from their own internal pain to God's steady faithfulness.

God has clearly revealed Himself in His creation, His Word, and in Jesus. It is our responsibility to learn, obey, and follow Him with our whole heart. He seeks a relationship with us, but we must choose Him instead of ourselves.
