CIAM Radio

Segment 1

• Celebrity testimonies seem to be missing one element in particular.

• Can you talk about Jesus, Bible study, and prayer… and still miss the actual gospel?

• Certain popular phrases seem spiritual, but miss the mark.

Segment 2

• What makes up a real conversion testimony?

• The culture is always trying to replace concepts like “sin” and “repentance”.

• Incomplete testimonies can create confusion about what salvation actually is. Clarity is always needed.

Segment 3

• Why would an a-religious astronaut break down in tears at the sight of a cross?

• Can creation itself convict someone of sin without a single sermon being preached?

• Three unexpected ways people come under conviction—and why one is rarely used

Segment 4

• Are major religious voices, like the Pope, blurring truth with other religions?

• America, Israel, and misused Bible verses: are Christians applying promises that were never meant for them?

• Israel, global religion, and cultural trends—how can we see the truth through all the distraction and lies?

Acts 8:4 – “Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went.”

Marriage was never meant to be disposable. In this episode, Dr. John works through Deuteronomy 24:1–5, tackling one of Scripture's most debated passages on divorce — and letting Jesus have the final word. With pastoral honesty and personal reflection, Dr. John explores what God's law truly permits, what it never intended, and why the sanctity of marriage remains one of the most important battles the church must fight today.

The Law and Holy Living: The laws of ancient Israel can feel distant and irrelevant to modern readers — but look closer, and you'll find they reveal something timeless about the character of God. In this series on Deuteronomy 18–26, Dr. John works through the detailed national laws given to Israel, uncovering what they teach us about justice, worship, and holy living — and pointing us to the one who came not to abolish the law, but to fulfill it.

Beginning days are often the hardest ones. Chuck Swindoll says, “How do we learn consistent faith? We learn it one day at a time. We learn it through endurance.” He’s right. As you walk into a new situation, don’t lose heart. It’s just one more opportunity to grow and learn and trust.
