Stand Up For The Truth Podcast

Original airdate: 6/5/25 Mary welcomes new guest Judge Phil Ginn of Southern Evangelical Seminary to discuss the critical need for apologetics – understanding it, and using what we learn. It can be like a foreign language, if you don’t use it you just might lose it. Hiding God’s Word in our hearts is critical to the articulation of biblical apologetics. We will talk about their upcoming National Apologetics Conference. Then we look at the quagmire parents have found themselves in when trying to assert their rights and opt out of perverted DEI type indoctrination. The public schools don’t want to deal with those messes, because hey, that means their students aren’t learning to be oh so tolerant of diversity and inclusion. Well, that’s on them, the schools – and parents are fighting back. Finally, we look at our government and why Trump has to deal with the O’Biden judiciary mess via activist judges. How did we get to the point that our duly elected President has his agenda hijacked at every turn? An enlightening hour with the president of SES, a former judge and very sharp regarding the Christian worldview.

Mary welcomes Oscar Navarro of Living Waters Ministry to talk about winning for the right side, bringing the gospel and the message of the cross to whosoever might listen and be saved. Oscar is Vice President of Ministry Advancement and a host of Way of the Master TV program, now in its 11th year. In this installment of SUFTT, we chat about how he came to Christ, and what it means to work at Living Waters. We ask him about open air preaching, which is something that our human nature perhaps rubs against and yet moving forward despite our fears even when public speaking is involved is an important aspect of reaching everyday humans with the truth. What happens after that, well, we leave the results to God. Living Waters has been a blessing to so many for decades, and demonstrating how to share the gospel is as important of an aspect to what they do as it is actually sharing it because believers often need a little encouragement, inspiration and education on how best to do just that.

Mary welcomes Dr. Chris Rupe to talk about that infamous graphic depicting the linear march of ape-to-human that billions know, or accept as, the story of the evolution of mankind. “March of Progress”, as the mural is named, has only been around since 1965 and yet generations of students were force-fed this simplistic view of humans and there is no “unseeing” it, even if a picture is worth 1000 (lying, fake, fraudulent, hoax-worthy) words. We chat with Chris about how the theory of evolution is stalled out – if not going backwards)- over bones and fossils. Specifically transitional bones, because if we can’t find any layers of ape-to-human proof in the form of fossils, what now? Scientists like to think evolution is not merely a theory but also not an ideology, but we are going to take some time to clear all that up. A fascinating hour with someone who has thought through transitional species, and author of “Contested Bones”.

Tim and Mary Danielsen take a look at the current news cycle, which, as always it seems, moves forward to a specific end more and more. It’s easy to just be detached because the news is uniquely bad; but do we stand back often enough to see the big picture? Everything is moving toward a prophesied end and that gets more obvious by the day. And that it is going there guided by the Hand of History should never be taken for granted by us mere earthlings. Yeah, Communism is bad; it has never succeeded; and it will enslave us as sure as the digital dollar. But the real story should probably be the one about Islam which will also enslave us and cost us our head if we stand firm. American voters think that what’s best for us is always something different, but history shows that is a very dangerous mindset. According to FOX, Gen Z voted for Trump and Mamdani for the same reason: change. The level of shortsightedness here is astounding. We also talk about Kristallnacht, Yad Vashem (Holocaust museum in Israel) and more.

Mary welcomes back author, apologist and speaker Holly Pivec for a timely conversation about the New Apostolic Reformation – which has become more of a revolution if you look at the numbers. And yet so many believers have never heard of it. So today we look at the basics: what it is, what it isn’t, and how to recognize it will take a bit of effort since it isn’t a specific church or denomination. We look at how it intersects with politics and why. If Christians think that the gospel they see in today’s politics is pure, they really need to think again, since the NAR is bent on taking over every system of the world. Does that sound as crazy to you reading it as it did to me writing it? It should, because dominion theology says that Christians must take over the world before Jesus can return. And yes, that IS crazy because Jesus isn’t a hostage in heaven waiting for us to overtake politics. We also talk about revival: what might that look like here in 2025, with the NAR being opportunistic in nature, that wherever there are whispers of revival, there they must be. Christians must be armed with this information or they risk being deceived, it really is that simple. If a claim of revival turns out to be fake, are we trying to assign the Holy Spirit to something He has not initiated? How can that not be perilous to believers? Holly’s definitive and groundbreaking books on the NAR can be found here.

Dr. Jeremy Lundgren

NEW PODCAST TODAY!  Dave Wager sits down with Dr. Jeremy Lundgren, president of Nicolet Bible Institute at Silver Birch Ranch, to talk straight about college, calling, and growing up. Framed by Proverbs 1:7, “Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true knowledge…,” they push past the usual “pick a major and chase a paycheck” thinking and ask better questions: Should your son or daughter go to college at all? What is God actually preparing them for? How do you weigh Bible school, trade school, a four year degree, or a gap year in a culture that is confused, expensive, and often hostile to biblical truth?

Dave and Jeremy keep circling back to transition. College is not just about classrooms. It is about learning to get up on your own, handle responsibility, live with other people, make your faith your own, and see your future through the lens of serving Christ, not just surviving adulthood. They talk about how a place like Nicolet Bible Institute gives students one focused year in Scripture, service, and community, to grow in wisdom before locking into a long term path. This episode is for parents, grandparents, and young adults who are trying to make decisions about “what’s next” and want to start, not with money or majors, but with the fear of the Lord.

Mary welcomes David Holland to the podcast to talk all things financial. From gold and silver, to fiat currencies to inflation and cryptos, how can we make sense of it all and help our families in the process? We can and must help them get ready for eternity, but fiscal responsibility is required in this life, as a stewardship. We talk about the state of financial affairs in the world, how to understand that better; we look at the demise of the penny and the reasons for that. It would seem that small businesses again will suffer most from this sort of “change”. We also look at what’s coming. Yes, the globalists want that one world economy – it sure seems so – but they are also fulfilling Bible prophecy which they probably do not realize.  David heads up Alpha Omega Gold and his desire is to help Christians understand the financial scene and make good choices.

Mary welcomes Trey Dellinger to talk about some of this year’s significant Supreme Court cases, which of course can affect the entire nation eventually. Protecting our kids is so important, and this includes primarily these days, what we expose them to. With threats from transgender therapy/surgeries, the porn industry, and simple library books, there is no such thing as being too diligent. Trey Dellinger is the Senior Legal Fellow of AFA Action, the government affairs affiliate of American Family Association. The impact of AFA on pro-family issues is recognized nationwide, and they have been diligent to defend and protect family values since its founding in 1977 by Donald Wildmon. It’s interesting how those with an agenda steamroll any notion of common sense when it comes to raising our children. In fact, those with an agenda seem to think that our kids are their kids. An encouraging podcast that helps parents see that they are not alone in the fight to let our kids be kids, free from blatant immorality and obscenity.

NO VIDEO PODCAST TODAY! Tim and Mary take on the news cycle with an update on the November 4 elections. With the NYC mayoral behind us, many are saying the way of life in America is truly behind us as well. Aftermarket comments on social indicate people really didn’t do any research on Mayor-elect Mamdani’s beliefs, a trojan horse of Communism and Islam which will surely affect us all eventually. It’s shocking to read today’s comments from the average American, actually, wondering what all the fuss is about. Are constituents really that easily led? Even in the ‘flyover’ states, we will find that with Islam’s encroachment into Minnesota, Iowa and Michigan, the dominoes will fall eventually. We talk about what it all means at least for now, for America, Israel, and all those who love freedom. We also talk about freedom to be believers and Jews in today’s climate. Believers who have long watched prophecy never thought we would see the things we are seeing, but we are here for a reason – walk circumspectly, and occupy till He comes. He is ever on the throne.

Mary welcomes Michael Johnson, president of Slavic Gospel Association to enlighten us about the tremendous needs in the former Soviet Union. SGA works with 13 nations to bring light and hope to those who have never heard the good news through various outreaches. Having begun nearly 100 years ago by a man who immigrated to the States from Belarus, SGA has been faithful to put deeds to the Word and bring truth to all ages. We talk about the orphan crisis, in particular the older teens who age out of the orphanages, only to find themselves the target of sex traffickers and the slave trade. These teens who have never known hope, often just wander aimlessly as young adults. Russia has the 3rd highest suicide rate in the world among adolescents. Who will give them a chance for a normal life, and what are the challenges to giving them the gospel? What is the state of their hearts after such a rough beginning? SGA has partnered with 6300 churches to visit these kids and develop relationships with the older teens. We talk about Siberia, Ukraine, even Israel and how to help these Russian kids. An eye-opener for us in the west.
