The Counter Culture Mom Show with Tina Griffin

In 2023, Jason Nelson and his wife were jolted from their sleep in the middle of the night when they heard screams in the hallway outside their hotel room. Little did Jason know they had accidentally stumbled upon an attempted murder and a sex trafficking ring. Jason, a retired U.S. Army soldier and former U.S. Marine, took action. At great risk to himself, a struggle ensued as he fought to rescue three women from a violent and dangerous man. Jason survived, but the cost was high. After fatally shooting the attacker, Jason endured a long legal process that eventually led to his name being cleared. Now, he’s spreading the word about the dangers of sex trafficking. He is also a testament to what it looks like to stand up for others and leap into action, even when the consequences could cost your life.

TAKEAWAYS

Many people would like to ignore the dangers of sex trafficking in America and pornography turns sex into a purchasable commodity

It’s very important to recognize the signs of sex trafficking and report anything suspicious

According to the United Nations, human traffickers victimize around 27 million people around the world

There is no reliable estimate of human trafficking within the U.S., but it has been reported in all 50 states, according to the DHS

The Millennial Kingdom: What will life be like? The resurrected saints will be immortal, says Dr. Nathan Jones. In addition, Christ will reign physically for 1,000 years on Earth, establishing His authority over the entire world. Nathan caps off this critical conversation about what Christians can expect after the Tribulation is over and the 1,000-year reign of Christ begins. Nathan is a digital evangelist and director of internet outreach at Lamb and Lion Ministries. He makes prophecy practical and faith accessible for anyone who wants to learn more about the Bible, End Times prophecy, and the many questions that linger about the final days of Earth and beyond. The Millennial Kingdom, Nathan says, will be unlike anything we have ever seen, and it’s something to be excited about.

TAKEAWAYS

Everyone will be healed; there will be no more tears when Jesus returns

Christians will rule and reign with Christ in the Millennial Kingdom and people and animals will live in harmony

The failed, flawed human government systems of Earth will come to an end

The Millennial Kingdom fulfills the Biblical Davidic promise

Jesus will return to Earth and triumphantly establish His Millennial Kingdom - a new, perfect kingdom that will flourish for 1,000 years. This key teaching is woven throughout Revelation, but many people misunderstand it. Dr. Nathan Jones is working hard to address the misconceptions people have about End Times prophecy, from the prophetic signs to the promises of the future for Christians. Nathan is the director of internet outreach for Lamb and Lion Ministries. He has also written an important book unpacking the promised future: The Coming Millennial Kingdom - What Life Will Be Like for Us When Jesus Reigns on Earth. Nathan wisely encourages Christians to live out the commands of the Bible until Jesus returns and calls us home.

TAKEAWAYS

God created government structure to keep things from devolving into anarchy

Unfortunately, man is inherently sinful, and so governments tend to become corrupt

Christians’ calling is to be salt and light in the world and to hold back the tide of evil and expose it at all costs

Jesus will deliver justice to all enemies in the end, and even the greatest kings and rulers will be humbled at the feet of Jesus

What does Hollywood get wrong about aliens? Plenty, according to Amanda Llewellyn, the co-director of the upcoming documentary UFOs and God, a film centered on examining the modern surge of UFO sightings, the multiple tranches of government disclosures, and society’s obsession with extraterrestrials. Amanda roasts Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day for getting it wrong when it comes to the supernatural phenomena of aliens or UFOs. Amanda says that she encountered aliens and was abducted while she was growing up, and the trauma had a deep impact on her life. Thankfully, she found peace in Christ and offers tremendous insight into UFOs and aliens. This topic is often twisted and sensationalized in all the wrong ways in modern culture.

TAKEAWAYS

UFO or alien activity is spiritual

The phenomenon of UFO sightings doesn’t take place in a vacuum

Spielberg’s film presents a friendly and benign picture of aliens who are not really “demons” but are certainly demonic

UFOs and God is available on September 11, 2026 at https://www.ufosandgod.com/

What keeps pastors from preaching about the Book of Revelation? Is it too complicated to understand? Is it too scary? Absolutely not! Robert Furrow simplifies the conversation about the End Times, reminding us that those who read this important book will be blessed (Rev. 1:3). Robert is the pastor of Calvary Tucson and the host of Truth Quest with Robert Furrow. He gives bite-sized answers for big questions about prophecy, breaking down the signs of the End Times, the prophecies that have been fulfilled, the prophecies that are still to come, and some basic truths about the Tribulation. The best way to interpret the Bible, Robert says, is through the Bible. Revelation is just as important as the other books of the Bible. Don’t be afraid to explore the unknown.

TAKEAWAYS

Revelation is often skipped over because pastors are afraid to touch it for fear of not interpreting it correctly

Israel’s existence as a modern nation-state may be a sign that the End Times are near

Jesus’s appearance in Revelation is very different from in the Gospels

Nobody knows the day or the hour that Christ will return (Matt. 24:36), and scripture says in the Last Days, scoffers will arrive (2 Peter 3:3-4)

Wende Gaikema was totally blindsided when her son, Matthew, committed suicide at just 22 years old, weeks from graduating from Texas A&M University. Navigating the journey of extreme grief in the aftermath of Matthew’s death was unfathomably painful. In retrospect, Wende offers practical wisdom for many of the common issues faced by those experiencing traumatic loss. She discusses the reality of grieving with the hope of Christ - the rawness, bitterness, and pain throughout the healing process. She also highlights the need for others to come alongside those who are grieving, surrounding them for the long haul with loving arms and empathetic hearts. Wende is the founder of Coach Wende and the author of an insightful book, From Heartache to Hope: Navigating the Choices in Your Suicide Loss Journey.

TAKEAWAYS

1 Thess. 4:13-14 reminds us that we do not grieve as people with no hope

Suicide is the second leading cause of death for people ages 10 to 34

There are many layers of emotional shrapnel to deal with in the aftermath of suicide

Jenita Pace was in such a deep depression that she attempted suicide and ended up hospitalized for ten days. God’s miracle was that her husband forgot his pager and went home to retrieve it, only to stop Jenita from taking her life moments before! Today, she’s a therapist and a professor, but the road to healing was not easy. Jenita talks about the long, slippery slope that can lead to suicide and the lies that we tell ourselves to justify suicide as the only option - when that couldn’t be further from the truth. Time and healing have highlighted the truth in Jenita’s life: Christians carry the Holy Spirit within them. Every human life is precious and has meaning. God can and will use anyone willing. Salvation is not earned; it’s a gift. God loves us just as we are, and in Him, we have infinite value and worth.

TAKEAWAYS

Jenita wrote a devotional, The Healing Name of Jesus: Find Freedom from Depression and Anxiety

Often, the church misunderstands mental health and, as a result, fails to address it

The lies Satan tells us are that “we aren’t worth it,” and that God “can’t use us,” but our pain is our testimony, and our story can save others

Jason Sautel was a firefighter in Oakland, California, when his world came crashing down. As he watched a suicidal man jump to his death off the Oakland Bay Bridge, Jason came face-to-face with his own demons, and there was only one way out: Jesus Christ. Today, Jason is a retired firefighter, a Christian, and the author of a book that gives many people hope: The Rescuer - One Firefighter’s Story of Courage, Darkness, and the Relentless Love That Saved Him. Jason shares the harrowing stories of darkness on the streets of Oakland, confronting the worst kinds of tragedies, and how the grace of Jesus Christ and the good news of the Gospel saved his own life. He wrote his book to let people know they’re not alone in their pain. There is a way out: hell is real, but so is Jesus, and so is the hope of salvation and eternal life.

TAKEAWAYS

Dealing with daily tragedy and trauma as a firefighter took a toll on Jason’s life

The reality of hell should give Christians a sense of urgency to save others

Only the relentless power of God can save us from the darkness of our sins

Dr. Matthew Sleeth is a former emergency room physician who has become one of the most influential Christian leaders in America. He is the executive director of Blessed Earth and the author of a new book, Hope Always: How to Be a Force for Life in a Culture of Suicide. Matthew talks about how he raised his kids in a Christian household, pulled the plug on screens and television, and focused hard on the Word of God. He also discusses the skyrocketing rates of suicide in America, zooming in on the magnitude of an increasingly prevalent problem. His newest book examines the spiritual forces behind suicide and how devoted Christians are far less likely to act on these destructive thoughts. God wants us to choose life, Matthew says, but Satan is constantly attempting to push humans toward death.

TAKEAWAYS

Christians act on suicidal thoughts four times less often than non-Christians

Secular culture presents a hopeless, rudderless picture of life

The voice of suicide is the voice of Satan, the voice of your enemy

What are the red flags of abusive leadership? Anna Vaughn survived years of spiritual abuse while working for a charismatic but narcissistic ministry leader. After walking away from that ministry with the rest of the interns following her, she went through a period of time when she was angry at God and even questioned His character. But God was good, and He brought her through that season. Now, Anna is the director of Stirred Up Ministries and the author of Caught in the Crossfire. Anna details how she escaped past spiritual abuse, how she felt in the fallout, and how God healed her in the eventual aftermath. Anna was called to continue to work in ministry, but with new eyes and an open heart to help others heal from past spiritual abuse as well.

TAKEAWAYS

Wounds from childhood are often a catalyst for why adults end up with destructive behaviors

Many people get hurt by pastors or churches and blame God

God is not responsible for the sins of fallen humans; we must separate Creator from creation

Once something demonic is exposed, it fights you even harder
