In this episode, Dudley and Jared explore the growing tension many believers feel with modern church culture, Church Leadership, and the structure of the Mega Church model. Through honest conversation and grounded biblical reflection, they challenge the corporate approach to ministry and revisit what the New Testament church — and the early House Church — was designed to be.Together, they unpack topics like Biblical Eldership, Shepherding, discipleship, and Tithing, while addressing why so many Christian Men are quietly leaving church despite remaining deeply committed to the gospel. Dudley and Jared explain that this isn't Deconstruction — it's hunger — and discuss the role of the Holy Spirit in equipping every believer for ministry, rather than limiting spiritual leadership to a select few.This conversation invites believers to rethink modern church systems through the lens of Scripture, calling the church back toward authentic community, shepherding, and Church Reform rooted in the gospel.We pray this message will encourage, challenge, and transform.As always, we invite you to share it with someone who needs it.

In this episode, Dudley and Jared explore what the Early Church can teach us about authentic Christian community, discipleship, and the life of the Kingdom of God. Through honest conversation and grounded Bible teaching, they revisit many of the assumptions modern Christianity has inherited about church structure, leadership, and what it actually means to live together as the people of God.Dudley reflects on his years in pastoral ministry, naming the quiet tension so many believers feel between corporate church models and the organic, Spirit-shaped relationships described in the New Testament. Together, he and Jared walk through the "one another" commands of Scripture, the beauty of Spirit-led community, and why so many faithful Christians today are experiencing spiritual burnout — worn down by performance, disconnected from real fellowship, and quietly wondering what the gospel actually says.The conversation also returns to the power of the gospel of Grace, Christ-centered preaching, and the invitation to rediscover genuine fellowship beyond programs and performance-driven Christianity. Along the way, they consider how movements like the House Church model might help spark true Church Revival in our generation.We pray this message will encourage, challenge, and transform.As always, we invite you to share it with someone who needs it.

Today, Dudley brings us his Monthly Message, “Captive Thoughts,” and in it, he asks a defining question: what does it mean to truly follow Jesus in Christianity today? With warmth and clarity, he explores common misconceptions—faith as a checklist, spirituality as self-improvement, or freedom as autonomy apart from God.Turning to the Bible study of 2 Corinthians, Ephesians, and Colossians, Dudley points us to the Gospel truth of being captured by Christ. He shows how the Holy Spirit brings transformation, guides our thoughts, and reveals salvation through the Spirit of truth. This is a call to live fully surrendered, embracing love, hope, and righteousness in Christ, and aligning every thought and action with His purposes.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

God is moving across the nations and calling His people into a season of elevation, alignment, and preparation as we approach the Hebrew month of Nisan.We are currently in the Torah portion Ki Tisa (Exodus 30–34), a passage that reveals a powerful spiritual principle: God calls His people to come up higher. In this season, the Lord is building His temple, establishing order, and positioning His people for a new beginning.The Hebrew month of Nisan marks the beginning of the Biblical religious calendar, the very season when God delivered Israel from Egypt and began their journey toward the Promised Land. As believers prepare for Passover, this is a time for consecration, repentance, and spiritual elevation.In this prophetic teaching you will discover:• The prophetic meaning of the Torah portion Ki Tisa (Exodus 30–34)• Why God is calling His people to elevate spiritually• The difference between the Biblical calendar and the civil calendar• The significance of the Hebrew month of Nisan• How the Exodus story connects to our personal breakthrough today• Why Passover represents a season of freedom, deliverance, and new beginningsGod is preparing His people for a destiny shift.

In this tender episode, Laura welcomes Ashley to share the story of her daughter, Bridget, who was stillborn at 24 weeks after a complicated pregnancy. Ashley speaks candidly about the trauma of delivering a baby who never cried, the sacred hours they were able to hold her, and the heartbreak of leaving the hospital without her. She also addresses the unexpected layers of grief that follow pregnancy loss—returning to an empty nursery, physical reminders like milk coming in, and the deep struggle with self-blame, offering reassurance that these painful realities are both common and valid. Out of that sorrow, Ashley describes how surrendering her pain to Jesus transformed her faith and eventually led to the ministry of Bridget's Cradles and her book, Cradled in Hope. The conversation explores biblical lament, holding both joy and grief at the same time, resting in God's sovereignty, and finding healing through Christ-centered support. With honesty and hope, Ashley reminds listeners that grieving with hope means trusting in eternity while allowing Jesus to walk closely with us in the present pain. Ashley Opliger is the USA Today bestselling author of Cradled in Hope and the founder and executive director of Bridget's Cradles, a national nonprofit providing hope and healing to more than 30,000 bereaved families each year in over 1,600 hospitals across all 50 states.

This week, we're featuring the first lesson in Dudley's teaching series, “Hebrews: From Shadows To Substance”. In this lesson, Dudley shows us how what God spoke in many ways through the prophets now finds its fullness in Jesus. From Noah to Abraham, from Moses and the Exodus to the temple, every story points to Christ.Drawing from the Gospel of John, Dudley reminds us that God's ultimate purpose is not mere survival or religious performance, but a life of true Joy and lasting Delight in His Son. The law, sacrifices, and sacred places were never the destination—they were signposts leading us to a living relationship with Jesus.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

Today, Dudley brings us his Monthly Message, “Tower or Temple?” and invites us to wrestle with a question: are we building the Tower of Babel, or are we living as God's true temple? With pastoral clarity, he contrasts humanity's attempt to reach heaven with God's desire to bring heaven to earth—first seen in the Garden of Eden, and fulfilled in Jesus Christ.Pointing to Christ as the promised Messiah and the Lamb of God, Dudley explains how Jesus offered Himself at the true Mercy Seat, ending the old system and forming a new creation community. The church is not a brand, a building, or a path to escape earth—it is a Spirit-filled people who embody God's presence and advance His Kingdom and Justice in the world.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

After the death of a child, the darkness can feel suffocating. In this deeply personal episode, Laura shares from her own journey of losing her daughter, Becca. The panic attacks, the desperate prayers and the overwhelming thoughts told her that she would never survive this kind of pain. When everything inside us says life will never be worth living again, how do we begin to move forward? Rooted in Romans 12:2, this conversation gently explores how transformation begins in the mind, even when the heart feels completely shattered. With both biblical truth and insights from neuroscience, this episode addresses how repeated thoughts can shape beliefs and identity, and how intentional, faith-filled shifts in thinking can begin creating space for light. Renewing your mind after child loss is not about denying grief or minimizing love; it is about challenging the lies that keep grieving parents trapped in despair and learning that it is our love, not the pain, that keeps us connected to our child. With deeply heart-felt compassion and clarity, Laura offers encouragement that, with God's help, it is possible to move forward without leaving our child behind.

In this episode, Dudley and David Holland continue a conversation where they unpack the Victory in Jesus and what truly took place at the Cross—not as a future promise, but as a present reality. You'll hear how Christ's work brought full Redemption, dismantled false spiritual powers, and inaugurated the Kingdom of Heaven here and now. By tracing the story back to the Tower of Babel, Dudley explains how nations, cultures, and spiritual systems were shaped—and how God's redemptive plan was never abandoned.This conversation invites us to see beyond the natural and understand how worship, authority, and truth reshape societies and restore people to true humanity. Rather than waiting for a postponed kingdom, we're reminded that Jesus is already reigning and advancing His rule through His people.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

What does it look like to cling to God after the death of a child, when the pain feels suffocating, forgiveness feels impossible, and trust feels fragile? In this powerful continuation of Laura's conversation with Linda Dillow, they explore the remaining heart skills that help grieving parents hold on to God and not give up. They talk honestly about lament as worship in a minor key, choosing trust over fear, the ongoing act of forgiveness (even when it must be repeated again and again), finding encouragement in God's presence, and allowing praise to slowly become the language of a surrendered heart. If you are walking through child loss and wondering how to keep going, this episode will gently remind you that you are not expected to “get over” your grief. This is a journey taken one step, one breath at a time. God meets you in the mess, in the anger, in the questions, and invites you to experience His love in a deeper way than head knowledge alone. You may not know what tomorrow holds. But you can learn, even in grief, to trust the One who holds tomorrow. Linda's new book is Hope for my Hurting Heart. She is also the author of several bestselling books, including Calm My Anxious Heart, Satisfy My Thirsty Soul and Intimate Issues. Linda and her husband, Jody, ministered in the former East European Communist countries and in Asia for eighteen years, training the leadership of the church. They have four grown children (one in heaven) and ten amazing grandchildren. Linda loves to encourage women to hope in God and trust in His faithfulness!

In this episode, Dudley and David Holland conclude their conversation by inviting us to reexamine bible prophecy through the lens of the gospel truth. Walking through Acts 2 and Psalm 110, they explain how the outpouring of the Holy Spirit marked not a postponement, but the fulfillment of God's redemptive plan. If Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father, then His reign has already begun.That reframes questions like who is the antichrist and what we should expect in the days ahead. Instead of fear or speculation, we are called to confidence in a finished work and a present kingdom. Psalm 110 declares a coronation, and the Holy Spirit empowers a people who live in light of that reality now. This is not hype about the end, but hope rooted in what Christ has already accomplished.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

In this first of a two-part conversation, Laura sits down with Linda Dillow to explore the heart behind her book “Hope for My Hurting Heart” and the personal losses that shaped it, including the death of her daughter, Joy. Together they begin unpacking the first three of eight “heart skills” designed to help hurting hearts cling to God and not give up. As they discuss loss, Linda shares how grief must be faced rather than resisted, drawing from her own experiences of multiple life-altering losses. She offers gentle wisdom on endurance, perspective, and allowing pain to become a transforming work in God's hands, setting the stage for part two of this rich and hope-filled discussion. Linda's new book is Hope for my Hurting Heart. She is also the author of several bestselling books, including Calm My Anxious Heart, Satisfy My Thirsty Soul and Intimate Issues.

In this episode, Dudley and David continue their conversation with a Christian Debate surrounding Dominion—what it is, what it isn't, and how misunderstandings have shaped fear and division within the church. Through a New Testament lens, the conversation addresses accusations of dominionism and contrasts top-down power structures with the gospel's bottom-up work of transformation.Drawing from Scripture, church history, and vivid biblical imagery, Dudley explains how Jesus reigns now and how the Kingdom of God advances through changed hearts, renewed communities, and faithful witness. Rather than Christians “running the world,” the focus is on Christ's finished work and the ongoing ministry of the Holy Spirit, bringing life wherever the gospel takes root.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

In this powerful Weekly Word, we dive into Parashat Yitro (Exodus 18) and uncover a prophetic blueprint for becoming a governor of prosperity as we prepare for the upcoming Hebrew calendar shift into Nissan.As we move through the month of Shevat (Shabbat)—the season of new trees, pruning, growth, and abundance—God is preparing His people for next-level stewardship, leadership, and supernatural provision. This message reveals how the Torah readings prophetically position us for the crossover from deliverance to dominion.Key revelations in this message include:• The prophetic shift from “Let My people go” (Parashat Beshalach) to governance and structure (Parashat Yitro)• Why abundance requires management, not just blessing• Jethro's wisdom to Moses and God's model for shared leadership and endurance• The biblical role of able men (Chayil)—men and women of substance, faith, and strength• How God leads us from toiling into rest, from lack into shalom• Breaking the poverty mindset through Matthew 6 and kingdom thinking• Learning to make decisions from being seated with Christ in heavenly places• Preparing spiritually for the month of Nissan, the true biblical new yearThis teaching will challenge you to examine:What God is asking you to releaseWhat responsibilities you're meant to delegateWhether you're living from fear and worry or from peace and prosperityHow God is positioning you to help others enter their place of shalomScriptures covered:• Exodus 18 (Parashat Yitro)• Matthew 6:25–34• Ephesians 2:6• Hebrew insights on shalom, endurance, and chayilRESOURCES MENTIONED• Cracking the Time Code https://www.candicesmithyman.com/shop/p/preorder-cracking-the-time-code-step-into-supernatural-acceleration-stop-cycles-of-delay-and-secure-gods-promises-today• New Eternal Kingdom Order Course• Dream Winners Coaching & CertificationWww.dreammentors.org• Hebrew Calendar & Torah Reading ResourcesGet your Wall Calender and copy of “365 Prophetic Revelations from the Hebrew Calendar”Www.candicesmithyman.com or out of USA go to https://amzn.to4aQYoR0FREE Mentoring Call – February 12(10 AM & 6 PM EST) FREE impartation & activation monthlyREGISTER HERE- http://bit.ly/4gfRKXmPodcast: Manifest His Presence on SpotifyEvents & Itinerary:https://candicesmithyman.com/eventsVisit: CandiceSmithyman.com for books, courses, & prophetic resources

When God feels silent after the death of a child, many grieving parents wonder if their faith has failed, or if God has stepped away. In this tender and honest episode, Laura speaks to pareavors (parents bereaved of their child) who love God yet feel disconnected, angry, or unable to sense His presence in the depths of grief. Through real words from grieving parents and gentle spiritual reflection, this conversation offers space for honesty, lament, and the possibility of encountering God again; not through answers, but through His quiet presence within.

In this episode, Dudley and David Holland continue their conversation as they explore two contrasting ways of understanding the biblical story—the gospel-centered narrative and dispensational theology—and why those interpretations deeply shape Christian hope and practice. Through scripture, church history, and careful reasoning, they examine popular End Times Prophecy, including teachings on the Tribulation, Armageddon, and interpretations of the Book of Revelation.The conversation addresses how dispensationalism places Israel at the center of a future plan while often portraying the church as a temporary pause in history. Dudley and David reflect on how this framework has influenced fear, disengagement from culture, and a diminished vision of the kingdom of God. In contrast, they point listeners back to the hope of the gospel—Jesus reigning now and actively restoring creation.This episode invites humility, honesty, and charity in conversations about the end times. At the center remains our shared confession: Jesus is coming back, and His kingdom is advancing.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

This week, Dudley brings us his Monthly Message, “The Church: What's The Point?” and in it, he asks a defining question, what is the purpose of the church? With warmth and clarity, he confronts common myths like the church exists only to “get people to heaven,” the church as moral improvement, the church as a temporary parenthesis in God's plan, and the church as political liberation alone.Turning to the Ephesians vision of the church, Dudley points us to the gospel reality of heaven and earth together. The church is a Spirit-empowered, messianic community, a working model of the new creation, where Jew and Gentile are united in Christ, and God's wisdom is displayed to the world. This is not hype, it is a call to live from who we already are in Jesus.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

In this episode, Dudley and David Holland offer a clear and thoughtful look at eschatology explained through scripture, church history, and faithful interpretation. Responding to recent critiques, they focus on what was actually said and why conversations around the end times deserve humility, honesty, and charity.The discussion contrasts dispensationalism vs covenant theology and explores how different interpretive lenses shape the way believers read the book of Revelation. Dudley and David trace early church eschatology, showing that the modern dispensational model is not the only way Christians have understood the story of the Bible or the end of the age. Rather than promoting fear or speculation, they highlight kingdom theology and the hope found in Jesus and the gospel story.This conversation invites listeners to return to scripture with open hearts, recognizing that interpretation matters and unity does not require uniformity. At the center remains a shared confession, Jesus is coming back, and his kingdom is advancing.You can get access to this series and more for free by visiting studywithdudley.com.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

In this episode, Dudley and David Holland dive back into one of the most debated topics in the Church today—the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, the belief that the end is near, and how our understanding of the last days shapes the way we live now. They explore why end-times thinking often stirs fear, urgency, and a longing for judgment, and how these beliefs have influenced modern Christianity.This conversation reframes eschatology through the lens of the gospel of the Kingdom, revealing how Jesus inaugurated His rule through His life, death, and resurrection. Rather than retreating and waiting for rescue, believers are called into active spiritual warfare, advancing truth, love, and reconciliation in a broken world.This episode isn't about predicting dates or timelines—it's a call to rediscover the mission Jesus entrusted to His people and to live faithfully between the “already” and the “not yet.”You can get access to this series and more for free by visiting studywithdudley.com.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

Welcome to your Weekly Word! In this powerful prophetic message, Dr. Candice Smithyman teaches on the month of Tevet (Tibet)—a month of goodness, holiness, purification, consecration, and righteousness. As we cross into the new Gregorian year, we step into a season of First Fruits, aligning ourselves with God through praying, fasting, and giving from Matthew 6.This is a year of dominion and multiplication—a time when God is releasing Kingdom strategies, scrolls of destiny, and supernatural revelation for your 2026 assignment. As we journey through the Torah portions (Parashat Shemot, Exodus 1–6), we see Moses' commissioning and understand how God is preparing us in the same way: through consecration, purification, and divine encounter.Isaiah 61 • Exodus 1–6 • Moses' Commissioning • 5786 RevelationAsk the Lord:“What do You want me to give that proves I believe in Your goodness and Your greatness?”God never instructs without blessing. He is righteous, and righteousness produces prosperity.Books & ResourcesJoin Ascend Classes — FREE impartation & activation monthlyThursday January 15 at 10 am and 6 pm est http://bit.ly/4gfRKXmIn USA get your copy of my new book "Cracking the Time Code" to defeat delay and secure God's promises https://www.candicesmithyman.com/shop/p/preorder-cracking-the-time-code-step-into-supernatural-acceleration-stop-cycles-of-delay-and-secure-gods-promises-todayNext Class Thursday January 15 2026 lat 2 pm est- Sign up for “Kingdom Wealth Strategies” for a 6 month COACHING in how to increase prosperity - excellent for marketplace ministry leaders and thoseWanting to dig deeper into God's plan for wealth and prosperous living.https://dream-mentors-transformational-life-coaching.teachable.com/l/pdp/kingdom-wealth-strategies-class-prophetic-communityGet your copy of “365 Prophetic Revelations from the Hebrew Calendar”Www.candicesmithyman.com or out of USA go to https://amzn.to/4aQYoR0https://amzn.to/4aQYoR0Enroll in Soul Transformation and Dream Mentors 101 to become a credentialed biblical life coachWww.dreammentors.orgPodcast: Manifest His Presence on SpotifyEvents & Itinerary:https://candicesmithyman.com/eventsVisit: CandiceSmithyman.com for books, courses, & prophetic resourcesDon't forget to LIKE, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE for weekly prophetic words and biblical teaching.
This week, Dudley brings us his Monthly Message: The Resting Heart. In it he offers a clear and hope filled Hebrews 3 explained teaching that addresses why so many believers struggle with rest. By walking through Scripture, he contrasts grace vs law and shows how striving, fear, and religious pressure keep hearts restless even when faith is sincere.You will discover how rest with Jesus is not inactivity but trust in His finished work, and why the Sabbath was always meant to point beyond a day toward a deeper reality. Dudley unpacks a theology of rest rooted in the gospel, revealing how Jesus fulfills the law and invites us to live from assurance rather than effort. As Hebrews warns, refusing grace leads to hardened hearts, while receiving Christ produces joy, endurance, and peace.This teaching helps reframe anxiety, obedience, and spiritual discipline through the lens of grace, inviting believers to live today in confidence and freedom by trusting fully in what Jesus has already done.Visit StudyWithDudley.com to get free access to over 100 hours of deep Bible study..Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

In this special episode, Dudley shares the story behind 50 years of ministry with Kerygma Ventures, and the moment that anchored everything, the message of grace.
