In this episode of Discovering Truth with Dan Duval, Dan tackles one of the most contested questions in the body of Christ: Does the Bible endorse women as preachers, teachers, pastors, apostles and prophets? Dan cuts straight to the chase — he believes in ministry through men and women of God and embraces it fully at Bride Ministries. But the question is why, and for those wrestling with specific passages in Scripture, he walks through the biblical evidence step by step.This teaching examines the two primary passages used to restrict women in ministry — 1 Corinthians 14 and 1 Timothy 2 — unpacking the original Greek, the cultural context Paul was addressing, and what "keep silent" actually means. Dan then moves through both Testaments to show that every office of the fivefold ministry has been occupied by women, from Miriam and Deborah in the Old Testament to Priscilla, Dorcas, the woman at the well, Philip's daughters, and Junia in the New. If you've sat in a seat wondering why women are in ministry, or you've just gone along with it without a solid biblical foundation — this episode gives you that foundation.Learn more about Bride Ministries Institute here:https://www.bridemovement.com/instituteThen weENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast memberwww.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFAAND Subscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube!

In this episode of Discovering Truth with Dan Duval, Dan answers a major theological and political question for the body of Christ: Do Jews have a separate covenant with God that entitles them to the land of Israel today, independent of the New Covenant in Christ? Dan walks through Scripture to examine whether “two-covenant theology” is biblical, how the Old Covenant functioned, what happened when Israel and Judah broke covenant, and why the New Covenant in Jesus' blood is the only covenant by which both Jews and Gentiles are reconciled to God. This teaching also explores how political Zionism has shaped Christian thinking, why many believers feel obligated to support the modern State of Israel without question, and how Christians can think biblically about Israel, the Middle East, war, and the people of God without abandoning the centrality of Jesus Christ.Learn more about Bride Ministries Institute here: https://www.bridemovement.com/instituteThen we ENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast memberwww.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFAAND Subscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube!DiscoveringTruthNetwork (rumble.com)

[2:56] On with the Show! Marya Propis is rejoining us on RIMScast. She is the President of Retail Distribution at RT Specialty, and she will be honored this year at the Spencer Funding their Future Gala at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City on September 17th. [3:17] We'll learn about Marya's career, her risk management philosophy, how her physical wellness fuels her progress as a risk and insurance professional, and why she feels it is critical to continue her support for women in the profession. We're going to have fun. Let's get to it! [3:39] Interview! Marya Propis, Welcome Back to RIMScast! [3:49] Since the last time Justin and Marya spoke, Marya has joined RT Specialty. She is coming up on her 6th anniversary with RT Specialty. It has been the most enjoyable and successful career chapter she has been fortunate to enjoy. [4:04] Marya says there are so many great things to talk about in terms of what's going on in the marketplace and at RT Specialty and how that pertains to Spencer. [4:20] Marya is President of Retail Distribution. She was promoted to that role several months ago. A dedicated group under her leadership is keeping a finger on the pulse of what's going on in the ultra-dynamic U.S. retail landscape. [4:47] They are always thinking of ways to be more client-centric, partner more fully with their retail clients, and think of all the places that their clients need RT to be as the top wholesale partner in the U.S. [5:08] Marya has six people on her team for a wholesaler that placed $32 billion of premium last year. But, actually, her team is the entirety of all the brokers and underwriters that work for RT Specialty. That's 1,500 people. [5:28] Marya's job is to make the brokers and underwriters who work for the team more successful every day. Her stakeholders are the market-facing, talented brokers and underwriters. They are her team. [5:46] Marya sets best practices and standards around compensation, conferences, and the way they engage. Client-centricity is very important, so Marya extends direction for it. [6:00] Marya explains how leadership style has evolved. In the first half of her career, it was all about command and control, from the top down. Telling everyone what to do has evolved positively. [6:19] Marya prides herself on having very good influence and leadership skills. She says people want to follow her direction. She had to learn a lot to go from telling people what to do to creating a path people want to follow. Being a command-and-control leader doesn't feel good. [7:00] Marya says that when we started talking about emotional intelligence as an important part of leadership, she realized she had it. She just hadn't been using it in any of her management or leadership roles. [7:11] It became more acceptable to use emotional intelligence to get your team aligned and get people thinking around the direction you need to go as a team or a firm. That's been very positive for Marya, but she couldn't flip that switch overnight. [7:30] Marya had to learn a lot to change her leadership style so people want to follow and feel that she is creating the right direction, so they can be more successful, not leading them down a path to doom and demise. [7:52] Marya says that an emphasis on emotional intelligence came hand in hand with the industry starting to pay attention to women in insurance and the lack of representation of female leadership in insurance. [8:09] Marya says that a decade ago the insurance industry started to be deliberate about realizing they didn't have many women in leadership and that there were obstacles in the industry to women being promoted and compensated at the same rate as their male colleagues. [8:31] Emotional intelligence came along with the recognition that women have a distinct and unique skill set. Emotional intelligence is a prevalent part of a woman's skill set. Women bring real value as leaders. The traits that come with that include emotional intelligence. [9:07] Justin says we have such a great group of rising risk professionals, particularly females, in the profession and the RIMScast listenership, so this is a great way to kick off this dialog. [9:25] Marya says she has worked for a lot of great leaders. She was fortunate to work closely with many executives. You can watch a leader and learn a technique or a trait that you can add to the skill set you already have. Marya says she gets her best material from others. [10:14] Marya says Pat Ryan, who founded RT Specialty, is the absolute Superman of insurance. Any time she hears Pat Ryan talk, she leaves with a gem that she commits to do or think about, going forward. He uses an expression: "Do the right thing, because it's the right thing to do." [10:47] If you use that as a guiding principle for how you set your priorities and make decisions, based on what your retail clients need, then it's very obvious what you need to do. It has become a guiding principle for her in the way she makes decisions every day. [11:47] Marya says her scope of responsibility is just retail clients. Her colleague Leah Ohodnicki oversees carrier management. They talk all the time. There are so many of the same principles that they apply, just to different channels in the marketplace. [12:07] Marya has been a career salesperson. For her whole insurance career, she has sold stuff. She has sold capabilities and products. She sells and represents wholesale brokerage services. [12:27] Marya says no client is like another. You must see every client with fresh, objective eyes. Every client has something unique, or a competitive advantage, or something special about the way they've built their firm. Sometimes you have to look carefully to find it, but it's always there. [13:06] You have to be willing to put yourself in their shoes. How do they see the world? How is that retailer creating visibility and driving success? [13:26] Marya prides herself on being a student of who the retail client is and thinking about how to better frame partnership strategies to work with them as effectively as possible, rather than thinking about herself, RT Specialty, and all the stuff she can throw at any retail client. [13:48] In Marya's mind, the way to do it is to start by asking what they need. Where is the place that they will need RT Specialty to be more successful? Then she constructs an engagement approach around that. That's different from how she thought about it 20 years ago. [14:15] In any industry, Marya doesn't want to be a vendor. She wants to be a partner. There's a big difference in the way you have to think to be a trusted business partner. That's a very important part of Marya's personal and professional philosophy in creating partnerships. [15:13] Marya says she's very committed to the digital distribution model. It's been one of the more exciting and dynamic components of the retail channel. Marya doesn't use AI interchangeably with digital distribution. Digital distribution is where we sell things online. [15:41] Marya says AI is a technology enabler that helps us be more efficient in sales. RT Specialty has an online portal called RT Connector that has been trading E&S Specialty, Micro and Small Commercial P&C products for eight years on the digital distribution platform. [16:09] Marya says there's a newish type of retail agent in the U.S. marketplace called digital agencies. They want to trade as efficiently as possible. They want API connectivity. They're focused on a specific segment and industry, in terms of where they feel they can sell and trade. [16:31] Marya says even the way they acquire leads is very different than a traditional retail model. Marya says we're certainly not going to sell RT the same way to a digital agency as we do to a big Alpha house. They're very different. [16:51] Understand the model. Understand how that retail agent or broker is structured, and meet them where they are. With digital retail agents, it's a completely different type of retail partnership that they can build with them vs. other models they've worked successfully with. [17:18] Marya says our retail clients are always evolving and changing and buying lots of stuff, in mergers and acquisitions. They restructure. How they choose to go to market. How they're winning business. Marya loves all the learning that comes as the market and her clients evolve. [17:45] Marya says they're a wholesaler. Their digital platform will reflect the appetite and eligibility of the technology-enabled carriers that are represented on the RT Specialty platform as trading partners. [18:10] Marya says they have 130 talented binding authority teams across their U.S. platform. They know what their appetite is; they have the binding authority. That's human interaction. [18:28] Marya says RT Specialty mimics that same process with some of the same carrier partners by putting their product-specific appetite on their digital platform. [18:38] The same agent can either go to the RT binding authority underwriter or go through RT Connector. If it fits the appetite of the products on RT Connector, in five minutes, the agent can rate quote, bind, issue, e-deliver policies, surplus lines taxes, and finance premium. [19:02] Marya says she can ask agents how they want to trade the E&S specialty marketplace. There are a lot of paths they can follow that get them to the same place where they win. RT Specialty can put the right resources around that. [19:35] Marya says if a retail client brings a franchise opportunity to RT Specialty, if it's a franchise operation that's insured, RT Specialty will write it. They write lots of them in the U.S. Marya participates in risks her retail clients bring to RT. [19:52] Marya doesn't sell directly to franchises, but RT has a lot of franchises and programs in chains in their book of business. RT has the largest sports and entertainment practice in the wholesale segment in the U.S. It's a tough segment of the marketplace. [20:20] RT Specialty has invested a lot in terms of talent. RT Specialty owns the largest MGU in the marketplace. The sports are professional, amateur, and everything in between. It's a very successful market segment for RT Specialty. [20:41] Marya explains that an MGU is a Managing General Underwriter, which is different from an MGA (a Managing General Agency), which is different from a Program. Marya says this has been one of the fastest-growing segments of the specialty market in the United States. [21:09] Marya says you create a homogeneous appetite for a certain bulk of business, find a carrier partner, set up a Program, and open your storefront and either distribute through retailers or wholesalers. Some are direct-to-insureds [21:30] Managing General Underwriter means that we would create the appetite and the guidelines. Managing General Agent means that the carrier has already defined that, and they're allowing us to put a storefront in front of that. [21:54] That's different from some of the traditional carriers that RT Specialty works with, like Lexington Insurance Company or Westchester Insurance Company. Those are carriers. That is a different solution than when RT Specialty approaches an MGU on behalf of their retail client. [22:18] Marya says anytime you have a lot of people in one place at an event, there are lots of risks associated with that: gun violence, political violence, and means of evacuation response. We have seen that time and again. [22:43] When you have a lot of people congregating for a sporting event, a demonstration, a commemoration, or other event, it's gotten much riskier when you put a lot of humans in one place. That has made that segment of the marketplace much more challenging than ever. [23:10] Marya mentions boxing matches in Vegas or the number of active shooter incidents in Vegas. Marya believes the Excess and Surplus Lines market segment is the permanent home for high-hazard risks in the U.S. It's not an escape valve. [23:42] Marya says that in her lifetime, those types of risks will never swing back to the direct admitted standard carrier side. As a wholesale broker, RT Specialty is looking to partner with carriers that have the right type of appetite to support those risks. [23:59] RT Specialty builds products, so they own MGUs, MGAs, and Programs. They invest and build products when segments of the marketplace become very tough, so they have solutions available through their brokers and underwriters to write any risk in any class of business.

[26:32] Justin asks about Marya incorporating workouts into her life so she can perform better as a risk and insurance professional. Justin also feels that he has missed out if he has not exercised or worked out for a certain time each week. [27:03] Mary has 35 years in the business. She travels every week. She flies a lot. She is very focused on her wellness routine. She has been an athlete her whole life, so working out is important to her. So is self-care. [27:34] Having gone through menopause and figuring out what was going sideways, physically and mentally, Marya feels good about where she is today, in her commitment to herself, supplements she takes, and understanding healthy brain function and the effects of hormones. [28:09] Marya says we know hormones have a significant impact on our ability to function, both for men and women. Marya says her lifestyle is not perfect. She eats at restaurants 80% of the time, and entertaining clients involves alcohol. [28:40] Marya loves the relationship-building, social, and personal connection side of the business. She's not going to skip drinks or dinner with anyone. But it's a place where there can be a lot of pitfalls. She doesn't subscribe to an austerity lifestyle. But she has to pick her spots, now. [29:10] Marya says she can't be dragging on Thursday morning. She still has two big days ahead of her to deliver. Marya talks about sleep quality, not just how much you get, which gets tough when you're sleeping in different hotel rooms. [29:35] Marya says, This is the way it is with the career I have chosen, and I love. She has to be much more deliberate and mindful and remind herself that in June, she is traveling 18 days. On the days she's not traveling, she knows what to do for working out and for her wellness routine. [30:24] Marya says she is open and willing to learn. She is open to trying and learning new things. She believes in supplements and vitamins. She takes different ones now than she would have taken a decade ago. You have to be a student of that, like everything else in life. [30:43] Marya says The second you start to lose the desire to learn, what's next? It's not really fun when people's mindsets change. [30:54] Marya has been a Yoga practitioner for 30 years. She does Power Vinyasa in an infrared studio. Marya says the benefits of infrared are scientifically not debatable. She says infrared is great for joints, skin, and healthy brain functioning. It amped up her Yoga routine. [31:15] Marya does TRX bodyweight exercises. Most of the hotel gyms today have a TRX setup. She loves that, since she spends a lot of time in hotels and hotel gyms. Marya does circuit training. She works with heavy weights three times a week to maintain skeletal strength. [31:53] Marya says it sounds like a lot. As an athlete, when you have to perform and deliver, it's part of the way you have to think. It's how Marya thinks. She has to show up and be her best self when she's representing RT Specialty in the marketplace. [32:14] Marya has a lot of people relying on her to be crisp and present with a great level of energy. You can't do that if you're dragging all the time. [32:40] Marya grew up in Buffalo, New York, so she's a skier. It was the first sport for her family. She played tennis in high school and college. She ran track as a sprinter. Her favorite sport is Yoga. A couple of genres of Yoga have world competitions. Mary likes vigorous, athletic Yoga. [33:34] Another Quick Break! The Spencer Educational Foundation's Risk Manager on Campus application period is now open, and it will close on June 30th. Grant awardees, colleges, and universities are typically notified in September. [34:05] General Grant applications are open, and the application deadline is July 30th. Internship Grant applications open on August 15th and close on October 15th. [34:16] Links to each of these grants are in this episode's show notes. Visit SpencerEd.org for more information. [34:24] Let's Conclude Our Interview with One of the Two Honorees of the Spencer Educational Foundation's Funding Their Future Gala 2026, Marya Propis! [34:48] Justin asks about associations Marya is plugged into that support empowering women in the risk and insurance industry, such as APIW and WISE. [35:01] Marya represents RT Specialty on two boards. One is CIAB (The Council of Insurance Agents and Brokers), an international organization known for its regulatory and lobbying efforts. [35:25] Marya spent a week in London last month with CIAB. There is so much going on in the London marketplace. That has been a lot of fun and a place to continue to learn. [34:47] The second board is WSIA (Wholesale & Specialty Insurance Association), representing the wholesale specialty segment. There are specialty markets around the world, but the E&S lines market segment only exists in the United States. WSIA is a wonderful organization. [36:14] Marya says that what's great about both CIAB and WSIA is what they do to support young and developing insurance and risk management professionals. It's consistent with and complementary to the work, scope, and mission of the Spencer Educational Foundation. [36:32] Marya loves the way all of that comes together. Marya has been in the space developing, recruiting, and supporting emerging leaders and talent in the insurance and risk management marketplace for a long time. It's a space she loves to be in. [35:56] It all comes together nicely with Marya's board service and her commitments to foundations and causes. [37:10] Justin says the Spencer Funding Their Future Gala will be on Thursday, September 17th, at the world-famous Waldorf Astoria. Marya is one of the two honorees this year. Justin asks what this honor means to Marya. [37:35] Marya can't remember a time when she looked forward to something so much. First, she was surprised, and she feels really humbled. Marya had been a Spencer Board member and Chair of the Board, thinking about whom they would honor, every year for a decade. [38:05] It's really humbling to be considered, let alone this year, going back to the Waldorf Astoria. Marya remembers the Spencer Gala there, at which she spoke as Chair of the Fundraising Committee. [38:22] Marya just about passed out before going on stage, as she had never talked before so many people. She was hyperventilating. She didn't fall off the stage. She enjoyed herself a little bit. The Waldorf Astoria is one of the most storied hotels in the history of New York City. [39:06] Marya says Sierra Signorelli is the other honoree for the Gala. Sierra and Marya worked together early in their careers at AIG. They got a significant start to their careers then. They've known each other for a long time. Marya praises Sierra and is so happy to be doing this with her. [39:32] Justin notes that Sierra is the Zurich U.S. CEO and the Zurich Commercial Insurance CEO. Those are not easy titles to achieve. Zurich is a global insurance carrier. Marya admires Sierra's career trajectory and the leadership influence she has had on so many. [39:51] This is the first time there have been two female honorees in the history of the Spencer Gala. Marya says sharing that honor with Sierra, someone she knows, trusts, and respects so highly, makes it even more special and a night to look forward to. She can't wait! [40:17] Marya is now a Director of Distinction on the Spencer Board. Her RT Specialty colleague, Michael VanAcker, is on the Spencer Board today. Marya mentions that Pat Ryan was honored by Spencer at one of the first Galas. Tim Turner, RT Specialty CEO, introduced Pat that year. [40:53] RT Specialty has had a seat on the Spencer Board for years. Marya is a Director of Distinction as she is a former Board Chair. They ask her to be an advocate where Megan Miller needs her, and to be conversant on where Spencer continues to support and drive results. [41:18] Marya stays in touch and makes sure she knows what is going on with the programs and schools they are partnering with. Her role is to be informed, be an ambassador, and jump in at any place that Megan and the Spencer team would need her to influence, help, and support. [41:41] Marya spoke at the E&S Insurer conference. At the end of the conference, she brought Megan Miller in and introduced her to the writers' folks and asked if they could get a five-minute spotlight on Spencer next year. That is an example of where Marya can try to help. [42:15] Marya says Spencer scholars are so excited about their insurance career. There is nothing more infectious than their enthusiasm for the career path they have chosen. To talk to a young person who has their whole life in front of them is super energizing for Marya. [42:57] Marya says that when a young person wants to talk to her and spend time with her, she thinks it is great. Enthusiasm is infectious. [43:05] At the end of the day, Marya wants to leave the insurance industry in a much better place than it was when she came into the business. Spending time with young people who will be the leaders of our industry in the future, there's no better feeling. [43:30] Marya says that anything she can do to have influence, set an example, or help them think through something helps her to continue to feel wildly enthusiastic about her career. She loves when she gets to spend time with the young brokers and underwriters at RT Specialty. [43:52] Justin says that the scholarship recipients he has seen on stage at the Gala have been so impressive. They're in school, and they're so involved. They're a shining example of what we want the future of this profession to be. [44:10] Marya says that there was no way, when she was 22 years old, that she could have gotten up in front of a room of 800 people in her profession and spoken like that. She would never have been able to do that. Their ability to get up in front of that audience and talk is huge! [44:37] Marya is impressed by what they talk about, in terms of their careers, and what they've learned. [44:42] Marya is delighted that Spencer has basically kept the Gala format consistent. The focus is on the students and the benefits that Spencer funding drives for the industry. [44:56] It's a place where you can see real impact on real lives because of the fundraising dollars that the risk management and insurance industry has stepped up and invested. That's the focus. Then they have dinner. There are two honorees, and they wrap it up. [45:12] Marya loves that they have never complicated the program for Gala. It has kept the focus in the right place, which is what they are doing to fund the future leaders of the insurance and risk management industry.

In this episode of Discovering Truth with Dan Duval, Dan interviews Esther Ford, a survivor of MKUltra and other alleged “globalist” programs, as well as the hidden twin sister of the Sue Ford (Brice Taylor). Esther recounts memories she describes as pre-Adamic trauma within her human spirit, involving deception, fragmentation, demonic defilement, warfare, and participation in satanic “grid lines.” She claims these experiences affected her earthly life and required extensive deliverance through Jesus, prayer, and the renouncing of spiritual agreements. Throughout the interview, Esther describes underground facilities connected to the Rothschild family, where she claims infants were imprisoned and genetic experiments created “monsters.” She also alleges sexual abuse involving popes and Jesuit generals. According to Esther, she was involved in what she calls the “Hitler Project,” advanced technologies, telepathic UFO travel, off-planet activity and experiences beneath the Temple Mount, including childbirth and children being placed into positions of influence and power structures.The episode also highlights Bride Ministries' schools, survivor housing initiatives, and “survivor lands.” Esther additionally shares accounts of angelic interventions and supernatural encounters during prayer and deliverance sessions.You can learn more about Bride Ministries Institute here: https://www.bridemovement.com/instituteThen we ENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast memberwww.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFAAND Subscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube!DiscoveringTruthNetwork (rumble.com)View less

Perfect Match: Season 4 Premiere Recap Netflix's Perfect Match returns for season 4 premiere, and Aysha, Jason, and Kirsten are here to break down this new cast of reality singles stepping into the chaos. As the trio navigates through the first-night matchups, past show connections, and ever-confusing name doubles, they spotlight early alliances and the unpredictable vibe shifts shaping the season's opening. The discussion dives into the entire starting cast, with background on each contestant drawn from shows like Age of Attraction, Love Is Blind, Too Hot to Handle, Vanderpump Rules, and Temptation Island. The hosts unravel dynamics like Chris's infamous intentions for being on reality TV, the Love Is Blind glow-up journeys, and the challenges of keeping track of similar names and faces. Early chemistry tests through kissing games and first matches keep alliances loose, while contestants already maneuver for position with moves like offering designer gifts to seal a match. The group also unpacks the show's evolving rules—now with three new singles entering after the first game—setting up higher stakes and more ways for alliances (and hearts) to break. Chris's reality TV motives and questionable approach to relationships highlighted through his designer bag “strategy.” Early connections and mismatches, with Marissa staking her claim for DaMari, and Jimmy navigating first impressions post-glow-up. Contestants from various Netflix shows—including a standout from Squid Game The Challenge and a Vanderpump Rules alum, mixing entertainment backgrounds and play styles. The group debate over the value of compatibility challenges, astrology's influence on matches, and why some singles seem perpetually lost in the shuffle. Fresh dynamics set by changing rules in the boardroom, as more singles enter and the original couples are challenged right away. With new twists and the unpredictability of reality TV alchemy, will any couple find staying power on Perfect Match this season? Can playing for laughs or strategy secure a place in the next episode, or will loyalty be as fleeting as last night's match? Listen in for thoughtful recaps and behind-the-scenes tea from the worlds of Netflix reality.

In this episode, Dan Duval teaches on Genesis 9, exploring why Noah cursed Canaan. He presents the view that “uncovering his father's nakedness” implies a sexual act involving Noah's wife, suggesting Canaan came from an incestuous line that brought spiritual defilement. He emphasizes that individuals coming from incest-based bloodlines are not condemned and points to healing through Jesus, including breaking generational cycles through prayer. In the Q&A, he discusses beliefs about occult practices involving objects and advises that some items can be prayed over while others should be discarded.You can register for the Bride Ministries Marriage Advance here: https://marriage.bridemovement.comThen we ENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast memberwww.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFAAND Subscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube!DiscoveringTruthNetwork (rumble.com)

In this intense and thought-provoking episode, Dan Duval presents a non-traditional framework of spiritual warfare and deliverance, moving far beyond the common “cast out demons” approach. He introduces the concept of regions of captivity—spiritual, psychological, and even symbolic spaces where parts of a person's soul or identity may be held due to trauma, spiritual influence, or deeply rooted experiences. The episode weaves together biblical interpretation, personal ministry experiences, and controversial spiritual claims to argue that human brokenness can result in fragmentation—not just emotionally or psychologically, but spiritually. According to this perspective, these fragments may become trapped in internal subconscious “worlds,” external spiritual realms, or even attached to physical objects. Dan connects these ideas to scriptures such as Psalm 23, Psalm 88, Isaiah 61, Revelation 18, and Ezekiel 13, offering a literal interpretation that suggests captivity is not merely symbolic but experiential. He also explores how trauma, memory, and belief systems can create internal prisons, reinforcing cycles of pain, fear, and limitation. A major theme of the episode is restoration—the belief that through Christ, individuals can reclaim lost parts of themselves, break free from unseen bondage, and experience deeper healing. Whether understood spiritually, psychologically, or metaphorically, this episode challenges listeners to reconsider the nature of freedom, identity, and healing.You can register for the Bride Ministries Marriage Advance here: https://marriage.bridemovement.comThen we ENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast memberwww.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFAAND Subscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube!DiscoveringTruthNetwork (rumble.com)

In this episode of Discovering Truth with Dan Duval, Dan Duval addresses growing fears around World War III, the end of the age and the Antichrist, by urging Christians to abandon the idea of an “exit strategy” and instead stand firm against darkness through God's power.Duval challenges the pre-tribulation rapture perspective, noting that many past predictions have failed and arguing that it misrepresents God's role. Referencing 2 Thessalonians 2 and Revelation 13, he emphasizes that the Antichrist's authority comes solely from Satan—not from God—and points to Christ's ultimate victory over Satan.Drawing from Daniel 7–8 and 11, he explains that while some believers may be overcome due to spiritual bondage or lack of deliverance, a prepared and faithful remnant will remain strong and carry out “great exploits.” He concludes with the assurance that, despite the conflict, Jesus ultimately prevails!You can register for the Bride Ministries Marriage Advance here: https://marriage.bridemovement.comThen we ENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast memberwww.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFAAND Subscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube!DiscoveringTruthNetwork (rumble.com)

Dan Duval addresses rising tensions in the Middle East following a the U.S. strike on Iran, suggesting that key facts are being obscured and that the conflict is unlikely to resolve quickly. He shares a spiritual encounter in which he saw a massive, city-sized scorpion over Iran in a defensive stance, along with what he interpreted as a global network resembling sleeper cells—prompting a warning to prepare for what he describes as a “new world.” He frames the situation not primarily as a battle over oil or military dominance, but as a deeper ideological and eschatological conflict. He explores Islamic perspectives, including Sunni and Shia expectations surrounding the Mahdi, as well as political Zionist motivations. He also highlights divisions within Christian end-times theology, referencing views such as dispensational premillennialism, historic premillennialism, amillennialism, and postmillennialism. Dan further warns of what he describes as a Luciferian agenda aimed at blending advanced technology with Kabbalistic elements and moving toward transhumanism. He ultimately calls on Christians to remain spiritually aware and grounded, emphasizing that the true battle is not against flesh and blood, but against unseen spiritual forces.Then we ENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast memberwww.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFAAND Subscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube!DiscoveringTruthNetwork (rumble.com)

Why Minister to the Human Spirit: Brokenness, Renewal, and Pre-Adamic Trauma!Dan argues that ministering to the human spirit is biblically necessary. He challenges the view that the spirit is automatically perfected at salvation, citing 1 Thessalonians 5:23 and 2 Corinthians 7:1 to show that the spirit can require cleansing and sanctification. He teaches that while the Holy Spirit indwells a protected core of the spirit at salvation, other areas may still carry wounds or defilement. Scripture, he says, shows the spirit can be broken, overwhelmed, deceitful, or in need of renewal (Psalm 51:10, 17; Proverbs 18:14). Duval also connects Jeremiah 1:5 to the idea of pre-earth existence, suggesting that pre-Adamic trauma can affect the human spirit. He maintains that targeted ministry to the spirit brings deep healing and transformation.Then we ENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast member:www.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast:YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFASubscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube:DiscoveringTruthNetwork (rumble.com)

In this episode of Discovering Truth with Dan Duval, Dan unpacks the biblical concept of the heart through both spiritual and psychological lenses. He presents the heart as comparable to the subconscious mind–the internal space where belief systems, emotions, memories, and intuition are formed and stored. Dan explains how the heart is “programmed” through revelation, repetition, and trauma. While healthy inputs can establish truth and stability, harmful programming can distort a person's identity, self-worth, and behavior patterns. These internal distortions often manifest in destructive cycles that feel difficult to break because they originate at a deeper heart level.Drawing from various scriptures, Dan illustrates how the heart functions as a central interface within human design connecting body, soul, and spirit. He emphasizes that true transformation begins when heart beliefs are brought into alignment with God's truth, allowing healing and restoration to flow into every dimension of a person's being.The episode concludes with a reminder that heart transformation is not meant to happen in isolation. Dan highlights the vital role of a safe, supportive community in walking out healing and lasting change.Then we ENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast memberwww.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFAAND Subscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube!DiscoveringTruthNetwork (rumble.com)

This week, Jason is joined by one of the biggest breakout stars in Netflix's reality TV world, Chloe Veitch! Chloe first rose to fame on Too Hot To Handle, quickly becoming a fan favorite with her humor, honesty, and a big personality. She went on to compete on The Circle and later on Perfect Match, and most recently hosting Sneaky Links After Dark, building a reputation as one of the most recognizable faces on Netflix reality universe. Beyond television, Chloe has leveraged her fame into a career as a model, influencer, and content creator, connecting with millions of fans across social media. Chloe opens up about her early dream of pursuing a career in London's West End, how her relationship with money has evolved, and why she used opportunities as a form of escapism growing up. She shares how getting signed to a boutique London agency at 18 — and taking an unpaid modeling job — unexpectedly led to Too Hot to Handle, plus the reality show she almost joined and why she played The Circle more strategically. Chloe breaks down how TV exposure turns into brand deals, the hard lessons she's learned about valuing income, why being single performs better on reality TV, and the one show she would never do again. She also dives into hosting — landing her first job without an audition but needing to sell the concept to Netflix — getting off ADHD medication, controlling the energy in the room, knowing when to walk away from relationships, launching her Big Sister radio segment with the Unwell Network, the power of loyal followers, standing firm on non-negotiables, and the advice she'd give her younger self. Chloe reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!
