John Plake of the American Bible Society opens up more from the State of the Bible Report 2026 talks about what Americans say they believe about God, the Devil, and the supernatural.  We are a spiritually sensitive nation, although much of it does not accord with what God has revealed in the Bible!  Mark Yarbrough, president of Dallas Theological Seminary and co-author of the novel "The Battle for Heaven and Earth," talks about what God's word shows us about what was happening in the heavens before the creation of the world, and how that has affected us now.

Austin Gravley of the What Would Jesus Tech podcast talks about how pastors are feeling the pressure to use AI to extend themselves further to serve, but not necessary in ways that multiply new leaders.  Meanwhile, people are turning to AI to confess sins.  Is that really helpful?  Pastor Bob Castro helps us understand New Age / New Thought ideas and concepts have been adopted by some Christians.  How do we see through the lies and see God truly?

What if your burnout is actually a spiritual battle you haven't recognized?

When most people think of spiritual warfare, they imagine dramatic Hollywood encounters. But what if the enemy's most effective weapon isn't sensational at all, but mundane? For ministry leaders, professionals, and believers alike, spiritual attacks most often look like creeping cynicism, imposter syndrome, exhaustion, and the urge to suffer in silence.

In this episode of TIPS, hosts Ashlie and Gilbert sit down with Rev. Dr. Jonathan Ruehs, Associate Professor and Interim Dean of Christ College at Concordia University Irvine and a specialist in apologetics and missiology. Dr. Ruehs demystifies spiritual warfare, showing how the subtle integration of sin, the world, and the devil preys on isolation and how leaders can actively fight back.

You’ll discover:

• The Predator Strategy: Why the enemy targets isolated leaders and the non-negotiable need for external confidants and support networks.
• The Mundane Attack: How unchecked burnout, compassion fatigue, and a messiah complex create fertile ground for spiritual defeat.
• The Sword and the Mask: Martin Luther’s framework for pairing biblical truth with daily vocational calling and professional counseling.
• Reframing Ephesians 6: Why the armor of God is not a checklist of human effort, but an invitation to rest in Christ’s finished victory.
• Daily Spiritual Rhythms: Simple, actionable practices that reset your baseline, from scripture memorization to living out your baptism.

Whether you're carrying the weight of organizational leadership or navigating quiet personal doubt, this conversation delivers biblical grounding and practical strategies for spiritual resilience.

Perfect for: Pastors, church leaders, Christian educators, counselors, and anyone seeking theological depth and practical tools to overcome isolation.

In this powerful episode of the Transforming the Church Podcast, Pastor Derwin L. Gray does something a little different. As he reads chapter 7 of his new book “It’s Time to Heal,” we explore how our deepest wounds can either harden us into destroyers or, when surrendered to God, reshape us into healers. Drawing on the real-life stories of figures like Adolf Hitler, Corrie ten Boom, and Nelson Mandela, Pastor Derwin reveals how pain itself does not determine our destiny — our response does. Through Scripture, listeners are invited to embrace forgiveness, trust God’s nearness in their brokenness, and allow the Holy Spirit to transform their wounds into wisdom and compassion.
