Who can forget the climate change scare introduced by former Vice President Al Gore? Carbon dioxide is the root of all evil, Americans were told, and the climate fluctuation is a symptom of overconsumption and capitalistic selfishness. Or is it? Joel Gilbert is a filmmaker and former intern for then-Senator Al Gore, and he examines Gore’s bombastic climate-related claims in his documentary, The Climate According to Al Gore. What is carbon dioxide? Is it bad for the planet, like climate alarmists claim? Joel discusses how climate policies are stifling the free market by shutting down coal and energy production worldwide. He also explains how the climate agenda is being used to push the redistribution of wealth and social planning, which is an age-old socialist scam.TAKEAWAYSAl Gore got out of serving in the Vietnam War by applying to divinity school, where he studied under radical environmental professorsThe climate crisis has been conjured up to be used as a political toolThe ‘Green New Scam’ is nothing but an assault on the free market systemAl Gore turned to environmentalism as a political vehicle because he believed it would cross all class lines🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODEDonate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/3IBriMlThe Climate According to Al Gore movie trailer: https://bit.ly/3IKt3XqRoseanne Barr is America movie trailer: https://www.roseanneisamerica.com/🔗 CONNECT WITH JOEL GILBERTWebsite: https://www.climatealgore.com/X: https://x.com/JoelSGilbert📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BYMedi-Share: https://www.medishare.com/tina-griffinCapstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/Wholesale Direct Metals: https://wholesaledirectmetals.com/tinaMasterPeace (get discounts with code TINA): https://bit.ly/CounterCultureMom🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOMhttps://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWShttps://theccmshow.lightcast.com/📲 GET OUR APP FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDEhttp://bit.ly/landingpageCCM💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION2024 Recap 2025 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCM23ImpactReportMake a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/#counterculturemom #geoengineering #climateengineering #climatechange #climatesolutions #sustainability #SRM #GGR #carboncapture #carbonremoval #cloudbrightening #cloudseeding #chemtrails #geoengineeringwatch #HAARP #NWO

Anyone can become disabled at any point in time, but disability does not have to become a person’s identity. Melissa Ortiz, for example, was born with spina bifida, but she is not defined by this diagnosis. She is the founder of Capability Consulting, and she is on a mission to destigmatize everyday interactions between average Americans and their disabled friends and neighbors. She discusses the 61 million disabled Americans living in the U.S. and also highlights the growing job market for disabled workers amid a rise in remote work. Don’t be afraid to help a disabled person. Look them in the eye and say hello, Melissa encourages. Include them. Assist them. Look beyond the disability and focus on the heart and soul within.TAKEAWAYSMany wounded warriors are distressed when they are treated differently by friends or family following an injuryDisabled people should never be defined by their diagnosisMany accessibility adjustments are not that expensive and can be donatedSometimes disabilities are hidden - like head trauma or blindness🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODEDonate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/455gbmbKerusso T-shirts (get 15% off with code TINA): https://rstr.co/kerusso/tina🔗 CONNECT WITH MELISSA ORTIZInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dcbelleonwheels/📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BYInstitute for Creation Research: http://icr.org/tinaMasterPeace (get discounts with code TINA): https://bit.ly/CounterCultureMomLifeVac (get 10% off with code TINA): https://lifevac.net/Wholesale Direct Metals: https://wholesaledirectmetals.com/tina🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOMhttps://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWShttps://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow📲 GET OUR APP FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDEhttp://bit.ly/landingpageCCM💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION2024 Recap 2025 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCM23ImpactReportMake a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/#specialneeds #disabilityawareness #inclusion #accessibility #disability #differentlyabled #wheelchairlife #actuallyautistic #autismawareness #mentalhealthawareness #neurodiversity #children #education #parenting #family

How can we make our churches a place where disabled brothers and sisters in Christ can not only participate seamlessly, but also lead alongside other believers? As the teaching pastor at Urban Light Community Church, Andrew Draper, shares thought-provoking insights into the inclusivity and love needed in ministering alongside the disabled community in America’s churches. How often do we look at disabled people and think of them as long-suffering individuals who need God’s healing? Listening to members of the disabled community is key. Make sure your church accommodates their needs, whether it’s in adult or children’s ministries. Disability is often framed as suffering, but that is not always the case. Reach out, listen well, and make it possible for all people to serve in their areas of expertise.TAKEAWAYSMake sure your church has equal volunteer opportunities and leadership opportunities for disabled ChristiansEveryone’s needs are different - don’t be afraid to askIf someone is merely viewed as a project or someone to be pitied, it contributes to that feeling of ‘otherness”’Never assume what someone needs - ask specifically🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODEHollywood Exposed Download: https://bit.ly/4miWm1VDisabling Leadership book: https://amzn.to/4ozCFET🔗 CONNECT WITH ANDREW DRAPERWebsite: https://atdraper.wordpress.com/📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BYRapid Radios (get 10% off with code TINA): https://rapidradios.com/discount/TINAWholesale Direct Metals: https://wholesaledirectmetals.com/tinaCapstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/MasterPeace (get discounts with code TINA): https://bit.ly/CounterCultureMom🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOMhttps://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWShttps://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow📲 GET OUR APP FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDEhttp://bit.ly/landingpageCCM💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION2024 Recap 2025 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCM23ImpactReportMake a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/#specialneeds #disabilityawareness #inclusion #accessibility #disability #differentlyabled #wheelchairlife #actuallyautistic #autismawareness #mentalhealthawareness #neurodiversity #children #education #parenting #family

It’s easy to take the little things for granted: going on a hike, for example, or strolling beside a breathtaking stream. For many disabled persons, hiking, climbing, and even walking are luxuries that are usually far out of reach, but Kevin Schwieger is determined to make their outdoor dreams become a reality. Kevin is the founder and president of Luke5Adventures, which helps those who aren’t physically able to experience God’s outdoor creations, see it firsthand. He was inspired to create this organization after talking to a wheelchair-confined woman who couldn’t experience nature like he could. There are eleven chapters of Luke5Adventures nationwide.

Terri Hitt lives by two phrases “parent to prepare not repair” and “we must inhale Christ so we can exhale Him onto our children.” How do we raise our children to choose Christ over culture? It all comes down to showing them how to live like Christ, and targeting that heart connection over stringent behavioral correction. Terri is a Purpose Parenting Mentor for Christian moms and is the mother of a special needs child. It all starts with identity, she says. Who are we? Are we grounded and solid in our relationship with the Lord? If so, it will be easier for us to guide our kids towards Christ in those moments of gentle and loving correction. Let’s be set apart in Christ and guide our children as they grow to cultivate a relationship with the Lord that lasts a lifetime.TAKEAWAYSDon’t parent behavior, parent in a way that leads children to ChristPrioritize time and mentor your children and study the Word of God on how to be a godly parentIt’s easier to lay a firm foundation for your children when they’re still young rather than waiting until they’re teens and set in their waysDon’t let your emotions rule your behavior🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODEParenting video: https://bit.ly/4fFnZ3aDonate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/455gbmbThe Good Mom Trap book: https://www.terrihitt.com/book🔗 CONNECT WITH TERRI HITTWebsite: https://www.terrihitt.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/terrihitt/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/terri_hitt/📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BYWholesale Direct Metals: https://wholesaledirectmetals.com/tinaMasterPeace (get discounts with code TINA): https://bit.ly/CounterCultureMomMedi-Share: https://www.medishare.com/tina-griffinCapstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOMhttps://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWShttps://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow📲 GET OUR APP FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDEhttp://bit.ly/landingpageCCM💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION2024 Recap 2025 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCM23ImpactReportMake a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/#specialneeds #disabilityawareness #inclusion #accessibility #disability #differentlyabled #wheelchairlife #actuallyautistic #autismawareness #mentalhealthawareness #neurodiversity #children #education #parenting #family

Escaping the cult of Scientology required detailed planning and courage, but Claire Headley pulled it off and is now living as a free woman. Born and raised in the cult of Scientology, she made her escape at age 30, after her husband evaded dangerous Scientology patrols with the help of law enforcement. Claire is now a business owner and a passionate advocate for bringing awareness to Scientology and its abusive doctrine and lifestyle. She talks about the “rehabilitation” program Scientologists are often assigned to if they step one toe out of line. Claire shines a light on Scientology theology and lays out the chilling impact growing up in an ironclad cult has on the mind of a developing child.TAKEAWAYSCults tell their members never to ask questions or say anything bad about the groupCults also tell their members never to trust anyone outside the groupScientologists will sign “billion-year” contracts hinged on their belief that they will reincarnate for billions of yearsScientology teaches that humans are “thetans,” which means they migrate from body to body throughout millennia🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODEClaire’s story: https://bit.ly/44Mf3FbBlown for Good: https://blownforgood.com/Claire Headley in Danny Masterson Re-Trial: https://bit.ly/3UifSjaMarc Headley Talks on Scientology ‘expert’ Hugh Martin Whitt: https://bit.ly/4frQGQU🔗 CONNECT WITH CLAIRE HEADLEYWebsite: https://claireheadley.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/claire.headley.5Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/claireh101/🔗 CONNECT WITH BLOWN FOR GOODWebsite: https://blownforgood.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/blownforgoodPodcast: https://bit.ly/4o0ACt7🔗 CONNECT WITH THE AFTERMATH FOUNDATIONWebsite: https://www.theaftermathfoundation.org/📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BYMedi-Share: https://www.medishare.com/tina-griffinWholesale Direct Metals: https://wholesaledirectmetals.com/tinaRapid Radios (get 10% off with code TINA): https://rapidradios.com/discount/TINAMasterPeace (get discounts with code TINA): https://bit.ly/CounterCultureMom🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOMhttps://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWShttps://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow📲 GET OUR APP FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDEhttp://bit.ly/landingpageCCM💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION2024 Recap 2025 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCM23ImpactReportMake a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Scientology and its twisted tentacles are threaded through much of Hollywood's upper echelons, and it maintains its control over many well-known celebrities through a mix of totalitarianism and fundamentalism. Tony Ortega is an expert on the subject of Scientology. He was the Editor-in-Chief of Village Voice in New York, and he has written articles about Scientology for large publications like Rolling Stone. Tony breaks down the gritty realities behind the behavior exhibited by big celebrities like Tom Cruise, who seems to have chosen Scientology over his daughter, Suri. Why would someone do that? Tony explains in detail. He also talks about Leah Remini’s escape from Scientology and her struggle to end the church’s harassment via a major lawsuit.TAKEAWAYSIn Scientology, those who leave or embarrass the church are considered “suppressives” or “enemies”Actress Elisabeth Moss may be the next up-and-coming Scientologist face of HollywoodLeah Remini released a documentary series about her escape from Scientology called Leah Remini: Scientology and the AftermathHardcore Scientologists truly believe that L.

What would you do if you were trapped in a cult that controlled your every move? Would you have the courage to walk away? This is the very real problem Joy Villa faced when she found herself too deep in Scientology. As a successful actress, recording artist, and entrepreneur, the Scientology movement controlled her life and took credit for her success. She became exhausted with the constant demands from the cult and its false teachings about self-worship and fear. Today, Joy is free from Scientology and washed in the blood of Jesus Christ. This is her story of surviving Hollywood manipulation, agency trafficking, and Scientology cultism. If you think there is no way out of a dangerous cult, think again.

Athena Dean Holtz was drawn to the glamour of Scientology because it appealed to her pride, she says, and with that appeal came access to Hollywood celebrities like John Travolta. As the founder and publisher of Redemption Press, Athena shares information about her time in Scientology and how she got sucked into this famed but delusional cult. She discusses how the organization lures unsuspecting people into it and uses their deepest and most intimate secrets against them as leverage. Athena also talks about the “E-meter” which is used when people are being audited - another word for counseling in Scientology. In addition, Scientology is inexplicably linked with Hollywood glitz and cloaked in just enough secrecy to keep it enticing for anyone searching for meaning in life.TAKEAWAYSThe E-meter essentially utilizes emotions to manipulate reactions from those undergoing the testCults claim that they have a truth no one else has access toCults will also encourage you to cut off all of your family and friends who aren’t willing to follow suitCelebrities are often unable to leave Scientology because of blackmail - usually information that comes out in auditing sessions🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODEDonate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/4lL1vzVFake News Against Leah Remini: https://bit.ly/4opBiZp🔗 CONNECT WITH ATHENA DEAN HOLTZWebsite: https://athenadeanholtz.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/athena.dean1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/athena_dean_holtzYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Redemption-pressLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/athenadeanholtz/🔗 CONNECT WITH REDEMPTION PRESSWebsite: https://redemption-press.com/📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BYMasterPeace (get discounts with code TINA): https://bit.ly/CounterCultureMomWholesale Direct Metals: https://wholesaledirectmetals.com/tinaCovenant Eyes: https://bit.ly/TheHealingChurchFREEBookRedemption Shield (get 10% off with code TINA): https://bit.ly/4ijBXXX🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOMhttps://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWShttps://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow📲 GET OUR APP FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDEhttp://bit.ly/landingpageCCM💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION2024 Recap 2025 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCM23ImpactReportMake a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

You can’t save everyone, but you can make a difference in the lives around you. This is the wisdom Marcus Meneese brings to his ministry, Stronger Than My Father. His organization is geared to reach young men who need steady and reliable father figures in their lives. He works with these boys to coach and mentor them so that they can become responsible adults who fulfill their God-given purpose. Every kid can break the generational cycle of fatherlessness if they have access to a healthy and stable male mentor figure who can guide them through the critical years of adolescence. “If God has given you resources and blessed you in some way, then you can use those resources to help others who are in need,” Marcus encourages.TAKEAWAYSYoung men need to know that their mentors won’t abandon themMany young men need help finding a career when they graduate high school - Stronger Than My Fathers helps aid young men in this areaMarcus’s ministry also helps equip men with the tools they need to be good fathersHealthy fatherhood can be cultivated by mentoring and teaching the next generation🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODEHollywood Exposed Download: https://counterculturemom.com/store/Stronger Than My Father video: https://bit.ly/43Czp1U🔗 CONNECT WITH MARCUS MENEESEWebsite: https://strongerthanmyfather.org/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mmeneeseInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/marcus_meneeseYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@strongerthanmyfather6625Podcast: https://strongerthanmyfather.org/media/podcast/📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BYWholesale Direct Metals: https://wholesaledirectmetals.com/tinaCovenant Eyes: https://bit.ly/TheHealingChurchFREEBookMasterPeace (get discounts with code TINA): https://bit.ly/CounterCultureMomCapstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOMhttps://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWShttps://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow📲 GET OUR APP FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDEhttp://bit.ly/landingpageCCM💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION2023 Recap 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCM23ImpactReportMake a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/
