467: The White Parachute // Spiritual Lessons from WW2 80 (Eric Ludy)

Speaker: Eric Ludy

Series: Spiritual Lessons from WW2

Study: 80: The White Parachute

 

This is the eightieth installment in Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW2. In this episode he looks at the Siege of Bastogne in late December of 1944 through the eyes of a medic thrown into the mêlée. An amazing picture of Christ-like sacrifice, love and care comes out of this dark tale, and we are reminded afresh that there is no greater love than that one lays down his life for his friend.

466: Unbreakable Bastogne // Spiritual Lessons from WW2 79 (Eric Ludy)

 

This is the seventy-ninth installment in Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW2. In this episode he brings us into one of the most incredible battles of the entire war — the Siege on Bastogne. Totally surrounded and out-numbered 5-1, the 101st Airborne Division is going to pull off the impossible. Oh, that more of what was in the defenders of Bastogne in late December of 1944 might be in the Church of Jesus Christ today in the year 2020!

465: Out of the Ardennes // Spiritual Lessons from WW2 78 (Eric Ludy)

 

Speaker: Eric Ludy

Series: Spiritual Lessons from WW2

Study: 78: Out of the Ardennes

 

 

This is the seventy-eighth installment in Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW2. In this episode he tackles the super-sensitive issue of conspiracy theories in the Body of Christ and lays out a map for how we as believers should be handling the surreptitious plotting of evil powers.  Using Hitler’s Ardennes Counter-offensive in December of 1944 (a.k.a. The Battle of the Bulge) as his muse, Eric shows how the supposed weak spots in the Allied lines prove to be amazing strength points when struck by our conniving enemy.  

 

Speaker: Nathan Johnson
Series: Ephesians Bible Study
Study: 54 – Breaking Down Barriers (Ephesians 2:14-17)

Because Jesus doesn’t merely give peace but is our peace, He removes every barrier and division in our lives, churches, and communities. The solution to the divides and segregation of today is not meetings, legislation, or new training – but Christ Himself. In this expositional message from Ephesians 2:14-17, Nathan Johnson talks about the effect of Jesus by being our Prince of Peace.

463: The V-Bombs of Antwerp // Spiritual Lessons from WW2 77 (Eric Ludy)

Speaker: Eric Ludy

Series: Spiritual Lessons from WW2

Study: 77: The V-Bombs of Antwerp

 

This is the seventy-seventh installment in Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW2. In this episode he examines the “vengeance” tactics of the Hitler on the city of Antwerp in the late fall months of 1944. It seemed like overnight in September of 1944 Antwerp, Belgium became the most critical piece of ground on earth. And both the Axis and the Allies were fighting to gain the upper hand there. When Hitler lost it, he made the people of Antwerp pay.  He sent V-Bombs in to terrorize the city. This terror lasted for six months. But, what is often not known is that there was a strategic answer to these V-Bombs. It was simply known by its code name, Antwerp X. 

462: The Battle of Ludy Gulf // Spiritual Lessons from WW2 76 (Eric Ludy)

 

Speaker: Eric Ludy

Series: Spiritual Lessons from WW2

Study: 76: The Battle of Ludy Gulf

 

This is the seventy-sixth installment in Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW2. In this episode he explores the great mistake of the Japanese in WW2. And that is the underestimating of the Americans willingness to rise up and fight. And may it be said in our world today that the great mistake of the Devil was to underestimate the latent power of the Church of Jesus Christ.

When we pray, knowing to Whom we pray is essential. In this study, we look at David dealing with the Philistines at the Valley of the Giants and gain an insight on what it means to pray boldly to our God who can breakthrough in any situation.

460: Fighting Under the Stage // Spiritual Lessons from WW2 75 (Eric Ludy)

Speaker: Eric Ludy

Series: Spiritual Lessons from WW2

Study: 75: Fighting Under the Stage

 

This is the seventy-fifth installment in Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW2. In this episode he explores the challenging position British General Alexander finds himself in during August of 1944. He is in an un-winnable battle in the Mediterranean, but a nonetheless supremely important battle. Eric emphasizes in this message how God often deems the hidden battles as the most important ones. If we are willing fight heroically when no one can see our nobility — then we are ready to be used in public ways without stealing the glory from our great King.
