American Church Archives - Stand Up For The Truth Podcast

James Spencer, President of the D.L. Moody Center, talks to Mary Danielsen about balancing politics with the Great Commission and what it means to find our identity in Christ. More and more, Christians are allowing politics to shape their worldview and the practices of the church, causing divisions among the brethren. There may come a time that we need to ask ourselves if we have become disciples of a particular political tribe rather than disciples of Christ – at the very least measurable in the amount of time we spend on either.

In his thoughtful article, “Render to God what is God’s: Reflecting Christ in Politics”, James says, “When God’s people take up causes, we run the risk of those causes distorting our vision of God. We run the risk of justifying our pursuit of the cause by making the cause an idol and tying God to it. When this happens, we no longer act as if we believe that His ways are beyond our ways, or that His thoughts are beyond our thoughts. God conforms to us. We then determine how the problems we face must be solved and God no longer directs. He becomes a resource rather than a ruler.”   Join us for a timely chat on what it means to count all things loss for the excellence of knowing Christ.

Eric and Mary look at some disturbing headlines regarding the far left’s suspicions of those who expose a biblical worldview and knowledge of prophecy. As Canada increasingly persecutes Christian beliefs, Australia has taken things farther still in painting Christians as extremists. Is it just a rogue few in the press who have no problem calling conservatives Nazis and White Supremacists or is the press in general just waiting to unload on those with traditional, biblical values? What are they so afraid of? The fear and loathing of anything Christians do or think is going to be ratcheted up in the New World Order.

Chris Quintana

Chris Quintana of Old Path Ministries, Mary Danielsen and Crash Connell along with Dove award winning musician Bruce Carroll discuss disaster overload. Anyone who thinks the world will normalize is not thinking realistically, and yet people very much want to go back to some “restore point” and make it all go away. But is God trying to tell us something in the mayhem? More than likely. And that “something” is that the “end of all things is at hand” according to Peter. But that hope that God gives is designed to warn the ungodly and have a purifying effect on us if we are serving Him, watching and waiting. Traveling hopefully is certainly realistic, for the believer.

Live Your Truth – And Other Lies

We’ve all seen the memes that populate the internet: live your truth, follow your heart, you only have one life to live. They sound nice and positive. But what if these slogans are actually lies that unhinge us from reality and leave us anxious and exhausted? Another Gospel? author Alisa Childers invites you to examine modern lies that are disguised as truths in today’s culture. Everyday messages of peace, fulfillment, and empowerment seem like sentiments of freedom and hope, but in reality they are deeply deceptive.
