Blazing Grace Radio

Joshua Inman is the twin brother of Steven Inman, who we interviewed earlier this year. In this first of two broadcasts, Joshua shares his story, including getting involved with dressing as a girl at a young age, a father who abandoned him, and the bullying he endured, including from Christians. Joshua helped plant a church in South East Asia with Youth With A Mission and is a former music industry professional working with some of the biggest names in Christian and Country music.

A recent study from Barna Group reported that:

In October, Mike visited the UK to attend the CRE show in Milton Keynes and to film a 6 part video series there on freedom from porn and sex addiction. During the time he was in the UK the spiritual warfare was intense, with daily battles that sometimes lasted hours, perverse dreams, and more. In this broadcast Mike shares what he went through and what winning spiritual warfare looks like.

In this broadcast we welcome Greg Reid back. Greg has been in youth ministry for nearly 30 years, is the director of Youthfire Ministries, and is a former private investigator who has taught over 250 criminal justice classes on occult crimes and crimes against children to law enforcement and others. Mike and Greg discuss the results of George Barna’s latest survey which showed that “Unexpectedly large minorities of adults at evangelical churches reject the biblical nature and character of God (24%), and worship spirits other than God of the Bible (26%)” and  “A stunning number – 15% – revealed that they occasionally cast spells on other people.” and how the occult has infiltrated the church.

Regarding the days leading up to and into the tribulation period, Jesus cautioned us in Matthew 24:13 that “the one who endures to the end will be saved.” In Luke 21:36 He told us: “But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

Joel Barnes returns to discuss Mike’s book The Rogue Christian and Joel’s involvement in creating the newly released audio version of TRC. A 5 minute clip is played at the beginning of the show. Also, Joel shares how the senior pastor of his former church was recently sentenced for inappropriate sexual contact… and the spiritual warfare involved.

Jesus confronted 70% of the 7 churches He addressed in Revelation 2 and 3.

Mike gets into action steps to take to overcome porn addiction (and any kind of sin) that have the additional blessing of experiencing the abundant life Jesus offers. These steps include:

Mike shares the story of a rough patch of spiritual warfare he went through that morning, fighting through it and overcoming, more stories of recent events, and what we have been seeing recently with those who come to us for help at Blazing Grace.

In this second of two broadcasts, Mike continues his interview with Steve Inman, who, although he was raised in the church, became disillusioned and spent years of his life running from God and hiding in the gay lifestyle. Steve discusses his struggles in finding peace, His relationship with God (which is still a work in progress) and his experiences in the church. He now works as a staff member for Youth with A Mission.
