Are you having a hard time figuring out who is telling the truth or what to do about your life problems? As agents of free will, we get to choose whether we will be filled with hope or empty and devoid of purpose. In 2 Chronicles 20:1-30, King Jehoshaphat faced overwhelming odds as three armies surrounded Judah. He showed us the power of hope in God to give us vision which produces faith-filled action. If you don't know who to listen to or trust, hope in God. If you don't know what to do, hope in God. If your soul is downcast, remember that Hope is Our Super-Power!

Today is the day to Arise & Shine!! In the midst of the darkness, shine! In the midst of the confusion, shine! The mandate to shine and give all the glory to God is found in Matt 5:16, "Let your light shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." But you might be asking, "How? I am tired, depressed, and fearful." The secret can be found in Acts 1:8, "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses..." We have all the power we need through the Holy Spirit to live lives that give Him glory!

Let's slow down and ask ourselves: Do we truly know Him? Have we taken the time to experience His beauty and love fully? 💖✨

In these challenging times, it's more crucial than ever to live for Jesus. 🌍❤️ We explore how political unrest, economic hardship, and strained relationships call for a deeper connection with God.

Together, we can remind ourselves of Hebrews 11:1's powerful message: "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." In days of chaos, our faith and convictions can make a difference and become a testimony for others. 📖

Join me as we discuss how active faith, inspired by God's truth, can offer solutions to today's pressing problems. It is time to truly live for Jesus!

In the middle of the culture war, some people think it is the loving Christian thing to do to let anyone in our country. Others think that it is treason to let millions of illegal aliens into our country at tax-payer expense. Borders and boundaries are essential for healthy families and personal freedoms. In this episode, we will highlight resources from Heritage.org, Patriot Academy.org, the Bible, and writings from Noah Webster to lay a foundation of why borders and boundaries are God's idea and essential for citizens to pursue the American dream, defend our Judeo-Christian value system, and preserve the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Our response to the culture issues we are facing will determine the future condition of our country and the legacy we will leave our children and grandchildren.

God is brilliant! If we ask Him, he will give us the wisdom we need and understanding to apply His brilliant thinking to our every day lives. In 1 Kings 3: 16-28, Solomon used wisdom to find the truth by evaluating the women's behavior and heart motives. In the day of marketing lies and manipulation, we need to become mature believers who can determine right from wrong, good from evil. The best is yet to come!

Did you know that after Israel entered into the promised land, they enjoyed 400 years as a republic before entering into the installation of their first king? The source material for this podcast was written by Bill Federer on one of his American Minute blogs. The framework outlined by Bill is the same framework our founding fathers used in crafting our constitution which led to the American greatness we enjoy! Let us fulfill our duty to defend our republic and the freedoms many have given their lives for.

What makes the difference between good leadership and bad leadership of families, businesses, schools, and countries? The theme of every bad king in the Bible is one that followed after the evil path of his father while every good king is one who followed after the heart of the Lord. Godly fathers produce healthy families; godly business owners produce healthy provision; godly media communicators produce true and just stories, and godly government leaders produce freedom and the opportunity to pursue happiness. Enjoy the lesson of the kings!

As we face The Tipping Point as a country, as communities, and as families, this episode offers wisdom and principles for making powerful decisions and action steps. Jonah, Jesus, and Founders like Patrick Henry certainly point us in the right direction. Jesus came to destroy the works of the enemy; we are part of that kingdom mission. Jonah was tempted to run away from bringing God's message to a city of great darkness, but obedience and courage prevailed! During an epidemic of fallen values and corrupt practices, I encourage you to be a part of a faith-based populist movement to establish a new legacy and save our country, communities, and families. 1 John 3:7-7; Jonah 1-4.
