Bible Reading: John 1:29-51 (Text v43-51) 1. The simple servant that was used. 2. The simple response to skepticism. 3. The salvation that resulted. The sermon emphasizes the effectiveness of simple evangelism by examining Philip's interaction with Nathanael in John chapter one. It highlights how a new believer can share their personal testimony without needing extensive theological knowledge or engaging in debates against skepticism. The central message encourages Christians to extend the straightforward invitation 'come and see' rather than complicating the gospel with arguments or fear of rejection. This approach relies on the power of Christ's divine revelation and grace to convict hearts, as seen when Nathanael moves from doubt to confession. Ultimately, the text urges believers to actively participate in reaching the lost through faithful, uncomplicated witness.

Every Shot Has a Story Faith Debate: Sunday, July 26th, 2026 (08/02/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) American kids receive more than 72 vaccine doses, including 37 doses by 18 months old. No other nation in the world follows a schedule this large or fast. Most parents haven't been told why the shots were added, what problems they were created to solve, or how they continue to influence health today. A book by Valerie Ferrell & Leah Wilson breaks open the history behind the entire childhood vaccine program. "The Vaccine Decision: Every Shot Has a Story" provides details (vaccine-by-vaccine & illness-by-illness) explaining when each shot was invented, what justification brought it onto the schedule, & why it remains there. The result is a clear, deeply researched narrative that helps parents understand not just the "what," but the "why." This edition of The Faith Debate features a part of Mrs. Ferrell's 90-minute presentation at Elk Neck Baptist Church in Cecil County, MD on March 24, 2026 – during which she outlines items that help folks navigate the medical morass as a biblically committed Christian.

Mark Krikorian is a nationally recognized expert on immigration issues, serving as the Executive Director of Center for Immigration Studies. They are an independent, non-partisan research organization examining and critiquing the impact of immigration on the United States. He has testified numerous times before Congress and has published articles in many outlets. Jim regularly receives an email from the Department of Homeland Security with a listing of the arrests of what they call the Worst of the Worst. Nonetheless, officers serving under ICE are regularly being vilified by the media, community activists and by politicians, without regard for the magnitude of the work they are doing to make America safe. For example, when ICE shoots a person who is attempting to ram them with their vehicle, these same groups become unglued, yet stay silent when a person who is here illegally kills others on the roadways or rapes an innocent individual. So while the Iran war has dominated the news cycle in recent months, the issue of illegal immigration is still a hot-button one. Join Jim as he has Mark bring you up-to-date on the many facets that are part of this topic. For example, what's the latest concerning ICE and their use of masks and traffic stops, expedited removals by DHS, the birthright citizenship debate, non-citizen voting, should there be more worksite immigrant enforcement, the cost of illegal immigration to our nation, and more. Callers joined in, bringing their thoughts to bear on this subject as well. More Information: cis.org

The sermon centers on the Gospel of Luke chapter 9, specifically the Transfiguration, to argue that the true essence of God's kingdom is the glory of Jesus Christ rather than theological debates or personal achievement. The preacher identifies three imperatives for believers: to see Christ's glory, to believe in Him by faith, and to hear His voice through Scripture. By contrasting the disciples' experience with modern church distractions, the message challenges listeners to shift their focus from self-glory and performance to a singular devotion to Jesus. The speaker warns against spiritual laziness and pride, using biblical examples like Samson to illustrate the danger of losing sight of divine glory. Ultimately, the sermon calls for a transformative commitment where believers allow Christ's majesty to shape their behavior and witness.

This sermon explores the Parable of the Good Samaritan to redefine the concept of neighborly love beyond legalistic boundaries. The preacher contrasts the lawyer's attempt to justify himself with the transformative power of the Holy Spirit revealing truth to babes in Christ. By analyzing the actions of the priest, Levite, and Samaritan, the message emphasizes that true love requires active compassion, sacrifice, and mercy toward anyone in need. The exposition challenges listeners to move from abstract theological debate to personal responsibility in loving others as themselves. Ultimately, the sermon highlights human inability to meet this high standard, driving the audience to rely on God's grace and the example of Christ.

The Vaccine Decision Faith Debate: Sunday, July 19th, 2026 (07/26/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) Before joining Stand For Health Freedom, Valerie Ferrell specialized in health & parenting rights at her boutique law firm, especially surrounding birth & vaccine rights. She advocated for informed consent in health care & transparent food labeling in her state. She helped found the Birth Rights Bar Association, & was honored to present their argument to the Delaware Supreme Court that midwifery isn't the practice of medicine, in support of a trailblazing midwife. Valerie believes that, "Health is the foundation of how we show up in this world to love, serve, and create. Americans are blessed to live in a country that gets stronger the more we protect fundamental rights, like informed consent and privacy, so individuals and families can thrive." She expounds upon these ideals as she shares her expertise on this episode of The Faith Debate.

If you turn on the news today, you are likely to see headlines that feel overwhelming. You might see reports of religious conflicts, ancient churches burning in Europe, or debates about whether certain acts of violence represent "true" Islam. Many people feel confused. On one hand, we are told Islam is a religion of peace. On the other hand, groups committing acts of terror often claim they are the ones following the faith most closely. To understand what is happening in our world today, we have to look at the historical "software"—the system of ideas, laws, and history that drives this world system. In the world of computers, if you have a program that keeps crashing or acting in a specific way, you don't blame the monitor; you look at the code. This article is a look at that historical code.

Dr. Tara Sander Lee is a Founding Board Member of SALT, Science Alliance for Life and Technology. She is a Science Advisor and Consultant who earned her Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the Medical College of Wisconsin. She has over 30 years' experience in public policy, academic research and clinical medicine with an emphasis on the cause of pediatric disease There are numerous debates as to how far we can delve into scientific research and still hold to a system of ethics. Some say it really doesn't matter as long as it's for the common good. Take, for instance, embryonic stem cell research. Some will claim that since aborted baby tissue would otherwise go in the trash, it's fine to use it for experimentation. Others contend the use of fetal body parts from aborted babies in vaccines and treatment are also okay if others are being helped by it. Did you know there are labs that create human embryos solely for experiments? These embryos are usually destroyed once research is complete. Also, did you know aborted fetal tissue is still used in some medical studies? This research often happens without public awareness or consent. And what about the use of AI? AI tools are shaping choices in healthcare, pregnancy and research. If left unchecked, this can target those who are disabled, the unborn or even older adults. We are headed down a pathway of very concerning technologies, genetic screening, gene editing, cloning, artificial wombs, 3-parent embryos and even human-animal chimeras. Where do we draw the line? When is it time to put the brakes on scientific research to protect ethics and prevent us from going down the pathway of eugenics?
