The Heidi St. John Podcast

I love having guests on the show who are getting #offthebench and making a difference in the culture. Today, I have a guest on the show and you're going to be so blessed by her story. Toni Stockton is a mama on a mission and she's sharing how she got off the bench and onto the battlefield. Listen in friends, I know you'll be encouraged.

Russia is on the verge of invading Ukraine. China is tacitly threatening Taiwan—and the Biden military is beyond woke. Feeling uneasy? You’re not alone—but your kids need to hear peace in your voice, not panic. Peace starts with a relationship with Jesus Christ. He is, after all, the Prince of Peace.

Washington state is ground zero for the hostile takeover our free nation by radical leftists. Today, Candidate for Sheriff of Clark County, Rey Reynolds, joins me to talk about some very dangerous legislation coming out of Washington State. It serves as a call to action and a warning to other states to remain vigilant in defense of the 2nd Amendment. Visit MyPillow | Resource Center Info | Find the show notes here

“I’m leaving.” That’s what my friend said to me some months ago as she surveyed the political and spiritual landscape here in the pacific northwest. “You have the gift of fighting. I do not.”  It was like a hammer to my heart. Why would anyone leave the fighting to someone else? Don’t we all have a part to play? Why are we running?

The questions kept coming.

My heart has been heavy lately over the number of people who I see fleeing instead of fighting. And while I realize that God calls us all to different things—I have come to question this exodus off the Battlefield. God has gifted us all, for such a time as this.

“There are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but the same Spirit is the source of them all. 5 There are different kinds of service, but we serve the same Lord. 6 God works in different ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us.7 A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other.” 1 Cor 12:4-7

We're just like the ancient Israelites, aren’t we? Think about it: according to the Bible, why did nations fall? Because they turned away from God. That's what's happening in in the United States right now. It's certainly what's happening in Europe. Today we’ll look at 1 Corinthians 10 and discuss the huge issues of their time. For example, they were ah deep into sexual sin. It was inside the church also! Today, like in the days of the Apostle Paul, the church has either largely ignored or offered unsound biblical counsel.

Though the Israelites had the covenant blessings and were miraculously delivered and sustained as we have been here in America,  most of them died in the wilderness because of disobedience and unbelief.  If we want God’s blessing, we better pay attention to His boundaries.

In the ancient writings of Ezra, the scribe, we read: "Ezra had determined to study and obey the Law of the LORD and to teach those decrees and regulations to the people of Israel" (Ezra 7:10 NLT).In the New Testament, the theme continued. Paul’s words to the church in Colossae continue to resound in today’s skeptical culture: “See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ” (Col. 2:8).  So what’s a Christian to do? It’s clear: speak and teach the truth. Turtle Twins | Visit MyPillow | Resource Center Info | Find the show notes here

MailBox Monday is one of my favorite days on the show because it allows me the chance to answer listener submitted questions. Today, I'm answering questions about internment camps, how can we know we're electing uncompromised people for office, a mom is struggling with getting her saved adult son to go to church, and a question from a mom who wants to know my thoughts on homeschoolers participating in public school sports as well as my thoughts on early college.

The various appeals over the OSHA Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) and the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) health care worker vaccination mandate were argued before the U.S. Supreme Court this past Friday, January 7, 2022. Those who listened to the Court’s livestream heard over three hours of intense, often frustrating and inaccurate arguments as to why the mandates should either be struck down or remain in effect. Today, Rick Green joins me to discuss. *** Turtle Twins | Find the show notes here
