Title: Spiritual Warfare and Thanksgiving

In this powerful episode of Candid Culture in Christ, we continue the series “Prayer: The Lifeline in an Unsettled World” with a focused look at spiritual warfare and thanksgiving.

We begin with a recap of what has already been covered—supplication, prayer, and intercession—laying a strong foundation for understanding how prayer operates in the Spirit. From there, we bring clarity to a crucial topic: what spiritual warfare is NOT, helping to remove confusion and restore biblical understanding.

This episode brings everything home—connecting spiritual warfare, true intercession, and the often-overlooked power of thanksgiving. When these elements come together, they form a dynamic and effective prayer life that reaches beyond words and into the realm of spiritual impact.

You don’t want to miss this one.

There may be a bonus episode next week as we conclude this prayer series, so stay tuned. Make sure to follow along on Instagram and watch for upcoming announcements.

In this powerful two-part episode of Candid Culture in Christ, we dive into the subject of intercession as part of our teaching series, "Prayer: The Lifeline in an Unsettled World."

Joined by special guest Billie Jean Bishop, founder of Partners in Prayer, this discussion begins with a foundational understanding of intercession-what it is, why it matters, and how it differs from everyday prayer.

From there, we move deeper into the spiritual significance of intercession, emphasizing how truth matters when we stand in the gap for others.

Because God is a covenant-keeping

God, effective intercession is not rooted in emotion alone-but in alignment with His Word, His will, and His truth.

This two-part series is designed to help believers grow beyond surface-level prayer and step into a deeper dimension

—praying in the Spirit, carrying the burden of intercession, and understanding the true power of standing in the gap.

If you've ever desired to go deeper in your prayer life, this episode will challenge, equip, and inspire you.

Podcast Description

Prayer Series – Part 3: Intercession

In this episode of Candid Culture in Christ, we continue our four-part series on prayer based on 1 Timothy 2:1–4, where the Apostle Paul describes four dimensions of prayer: supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks.

This week we focus on intercession — the act of standing in the gap for others and bringing their lives before God in prayer so they may come to the knowledge of the truth.

Joining us for this discussion is a special guest, Billie Jean Bishop, founder of Partners in Prayer, a ministry devoted to interceding for prodigals and believing for their return to God. Through years of faithful prayer, this ministry has encouraged believers to stand in the gap for loved ones and trust God to work in their lives.

In this episode we explore:

• What intercession truly is

• Why intercession is an expression of love

• Biblical examples of standing in the gap

• The role of the Spirit in deeper prayer

Some people are saved today because someone prayed for them yesterday.

This episode is Part 1 of a two-part discussion, and next week we will return for the powerful conclusion on intercession.

What if the real thing holding you back… isn’t sin — but fear of looking foolish?

In “Fools for His Glory,” we explore a truth that stretches beyond church worship into everyday life. David danced and was despised. Paul embraced the label of “fool.” Noah built before it rained. Pentecost fire was called madness.

Throughout Scripture, bold obedience often looks irrational to culture.

This episode confronts:

Being a fool for Christ isn’t just about how you worship — it’s about how you live.

It’s obedience when it costs you.

Conviction when it isolates you.

Passion when it would be easier to blend in.

Better to look foolish before men than faithless before God.

Don’t quench what He’s stirring — in worship or in lifestyle.
