Mary welcomes back Don Veinot to talk about taming Jesus to fit a progressive worldview, false representations of Christian and Christianity, and what fills that void every human has. For the last few decades especially, the progressive left has not only sought to dominate the American political landscape, but has infiltrated the church - purposefully and methodically. From Red Letter Christians to Social Justice warriors, the church has been leaning left on a large scale. The church has been duped into rethinking gay rights, social causes and immigration; Israel is no longer the apple of God's eye and that piece of land is now home to apartheid and genocidal Jews. How did we get here, and what are the dangers of such an unbiblical worldview? Does it impact our eternity? Yes, and people are making eternal choices over temporal issues, misrepresenting Jesus and His ministry. A thoughtful hour on the Jesus of the Left.  Don Veinot and his wife Joy are co-founder and president of Midwest Christian Outreach, Inc. (MCOI), a mission to cults and non-Christian religions based in Wonder Lake, IL. They have studied numerous cults and new religious movements impacting the church since 1987. Don is a frequent guest on numerous radio and television broadcasts including The John Ankerberg Show as well as being a staff researcher and writer for the Midwest Christian Outreach Journal. Additionally, Don is co-author of the book A Matter of Basic Principles: Bill Gothard and His Cultish Teachings, as well as various research articles in the CRI Journal, PFO Quarterly Journal, Campus Life Magazine, Journal of the International Society of Christian Apologetics, Midwestern Journal of Theology, and other periodicals.

Tim and Mary take on the headlines after one of the most intense weeks on earth from a prophetic view. What Israel and America represent is freedom, and everyone knows it. That's why the enemy of our souls is working overtime to overthrow each one, and what they represent: the Jews, and their torch of Scripture and gift of the Messiah; and the US, representing so many tribes and tongues - and the freedom that faith in Christ represents in a land of tens of thousands of churches that lift up His Name. There is one common denominator in so much world chaos: 1) Rid the world of Jews, and 2) Rid the world of Christianity. All the anarchy is progressive, socialist, and global. Here we have a president who is trying his level best to hold it back, but at a great cost. The result, if they succeed, is to rob us all of our freedoms and our light. Israel is doing momentous things right now, like protecting the West from terror in many forms. Americans are marching and demanding to be free. What's wrong with this picture? We talk today about Israel, No Kings madness, and various things that point to the lateness of the hour. Get your rapture shoes shined up.

Mary welcomes back pastor and Bible scholar Andy Woods to look at what we saw, and what we may have missed, in the last week. Israel and Iran went at it and it won't be over till it's over. Which is as it should be, but will Trump insist on taking it to the talk table before Israel has really made the world safe from the largest exporter of terrorism? So much to look at there. We also look at politics, American style, when it comes to the waste of time that was No Kings Saturday. Sometimes we wonder if the Left has thought this through, trying to rid the country of Trump. What exactly do they think would happen if he is gone, are they hoping to simply install their favorite progressive the next day? The lack of civics knowledge will come home to haunt them. We also look at Gog and Magog; the Mark of the Beast tech, and the media mentality, which is generally one of lies and half-truths again. Still. A great hour with a gifted teacher and prophecy watcher. His Pastors Point of View on YouTube is a great way to keep up with the times.

In this powerful episode of Stand Up for the Truth, host Dave Wager welcomes long-time friends and global missionaries Don Shire and Mike Dawson. The conversation centers around Matthew 24:14 and the call to proclaim the gospel to all nations. Mike shares updates from deep in the Amazon rainforest, where he and his teams are discovering hundreds of previously unreached Yanomami villages—many who have never heard the name of Jesus. He explains how they use solar-powered audio Bibles and gospel films like The Passion of the Christ to reach remote tribes, often traveling for days by boat and foot. Dave reflects on the impact of simply showing up for missionaries in the field and how those personal connections can open doors for the gospel in remarkable ways.

Don shares stories of his trumpet ministry opening unexpected doors in over 38 countries, including recent work with refugees in Ukraine and orphanages in Haiti and India. What started as a music ministry has grown into a global effort to care for widows, orphans, and the unreached—often in dangerous or politically unstable regions. He and Mike both emphasize that God often uses unlikely people in unexpected ways, encouraging listeners to be willing, available, and open to the burdens God places on their hearts. Through faith, obedience, and divine appointments, their ministries continue to grow, serving as a reminder that God's plans are far greater than our own qualifications or limitations.

Mary welcomes Dr. David Reagan for the first time to SUFTT. David founded Lamb & Lion Ministries on April 1, 1980 and they are celebrating 45 years of building up and edifying the body of Christ, urging us all to be watchful, prayerful, and joyful in Christ.  Dr. Reagan is a native Texan, a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Texas in Austin. His graduate degrees were earned in the field of International Relations from the Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy of Tufts and Harvard Universities. Before entering the ministry, he had an extensive career in higher education. David is a life-long Bible student, teacher, and preacher. He entered the full-time ministry in 1976 when he was called to serve as the pulpit minister for a church in Irving, Texas.  He has written over 20 books and has contributed to many others. Today we talk about the rising perilous tide all around us, starting with Israel's brilliant attack on Iran. Then we discuss whether socialism is our expected national doom, as the left ratchets up every cause they can dream of, including antisemitism -  an offense to a holy God. Lawlessness and violence threaten to spill over to any community on any day as the left uses whatever crisis suits them to foment trouble. Never mind that they themselves are lawless at heart, when the president tries to establish law and order, and it is vilified, we know just how far the violence has permeated our fragile sense of society. We also talk about the national marches planned for Saturday as it is Trump's 79th birthday and the 250th anniversary of our Army. The No Kings Movement is gaining steam from the left and could change the face of our nation yet again. What could happen next on this fragile planet is anyone's guess.

Mary welcomes back Julaine Appling for a look at the culture from several angles. One of the best culture warriors out there, Julaine's faith and trust in Christ always shines through as she looks over the moral issues of the day in Wisconsin and across the fruited plain. Julaine helps us stay on top of the issues so that we can know how to vote and what issues take precedence in our worldview watch. Today we look at the March for Life that will take place in Madison, Wisconsin on June 14. The fight for life will not end in our lifetimes, but there are ways we can stand firm for biblical truth on this one. We take a look at a new resolution to revoke Wisconsin's constitutional amendment on marriage. The author of the bill hails it as a reversal of previous discriminatory language that "fuels hate". Of course anyone who affirms God's one-man-one-woman plan for marriage knows this is progressive mumbo jumbo that discriminates against the truth. We discuss Wisconsin's voucher plan changes and much more as we look at life, liberty and God's revealed plan for how a moral society functions best.

Tim and Mary take on the week's roundup with a variety of Kodak moments. Greta Thunberg with her 14 million+ social media fans showed once again how little she understands geopolitical events. It is difficult to understand her symbolism-over-substance approach to world events but being such a tender age, the grownups know she is over her head on all of it. We take a look at her latest cause. Canada is in the news, and not in a good way as they combine with the UK and France to issue yet another ignorant statement on what they think Israel should be doing and why.  Iran is in the news again, and after at least 15 years the world is still grappling with the nuclear potential of that rogue, radical state. Tim sheds some light on that topic. We also look at the top 10 reasons why your money doesn't stretch anymore - more month left at the end of the money - and what might be next. Health watch, tech watch - all sorts of various and sundry topics this June day. Watch therefore.

Mary welcomes back Olivier Melnick to discuss the new normal: antisemitism. He is a Jewish believer in Jesus from France, the son of Holocaust survivors, whose maternal grandfather was killed by the Nazis. Olivier is an internationally known speaker on antisemitism. He holds a BA from Moody Bible Institute and a masters from Dallas Theological Seminary, and has been equipping believers to understand and fight antisemitism since 2000. The ramping up of antisemitism is a complete surprise to some, it's not that long ago that they were the target of genocide during WW2, and if anyone alive has a parent who fought in that war, the connection is still strong. So why now? How are things different? Today we talk about the stages of normalization from his book, "The Normalization of Antisemitism". World leaders are not so subtly being drawn into this hate as the world turns their back on Israel. Words matter. Words turn to violence. Even our neighbor to the north is being drawn in. Israel can do nothing right, so they might as well do what they are going to do to stave off the end of the west through violence, immigration, and Islam.

[Originally Aired: 6/13/24] Mary chats with Pastor and author Mike Abendroth who has written a 31 day devotional on how to allow God to shepherd us when we find ourselves suffering from chronic illness. The title alone is very freeing, and when we search the Scriptures, how much more is this true and verified over and over as we seek to get to know our Good Shepherd better. Everyone is shepherded, led - and follows -  something in this life, we are all serving something, someone. But for the believer, the true Shepherd cannot be supplanted by something as temporal as illness; beyond that, He cherishes and cares deeply for each of us each day, in sickness and in health. As he says in this devotional, "Cancer is not your shepherd. Cancer is not in charge. Cancer is not all powerful. Cancer does not have the last word. Cancer is not a surprise to the Lord. Cancer - is NOT your shepherd". A much needed devotional in these trying, perilous times in which it seems more and more people are struggling with serious health issues. Mike is currently working on a video series on this subject.

Mary welcomes back Nathaniel Jeanson of Answers in Genesis. Dr. Jeanson holds a PhD in cell and developmental biology from Harvard University. He serves as a research biologist, author, and speaker with Answers in Genesis. His current research involves using DNA comparisons to understand the true origin of species, and he has published groundbreaking results on this question. In addition, he has contributed to several books, including Replacing Darwin: The New Origins of Species and the only slightly more recent Traced: Human DNA’s Big Surprise, an examination of the genetic history of humanity that makes testable predictions from the creationist worldview.  His 26 part documentary, "The New History of the Human Race" is a fascinating and mind-bending look at the migrations of millennia of humans based on archaeology, genetics, and linguistics, using knowledge and tech-knowledge that was here-to-fore unavailable to the average researcher. We look at his new book, They Had Names, to unlock the hidden history of America. Were there really no people living in America prior to the Pilgrims? Why are the history books silent on its inhabitants going back millennia? Before the Pilgrims landed at Cape Cod, what was happening in North America? Who was there? What civilizations rose and fell? For years, the answers to these questions have been shrouded in mystery. At the time of European contact, a diverse world of Native peoples thrived across the continent. What was their backstory? Who were the ancestors of the Sioux? Where did the Navajo come from? What about the Apache, the Comanche, the Cherokee? For the history nerd, a compendium of answers to questions, and yet still unanswered questions from one of the finest researchers of our time, using linguistics, archaeology, and genetics.
