╫ Passover 2019 - True Examination of the Heart [PODCAST]
April 18, 2019 20:25 - 56 minutes - 39.2 MBHave you ever heard of a strong Christian, who's fire went out? Or even worse, a once 'believer' who fell away completely. Like Judas who dwelled with Jesus: Ate with him, slept with him, arose in the morning to walk through the streets of Jerusalem with Him - yet betrayed Him. The mere fact that it is possible for us to betray Messiah in the way that Judas did, calls for examination. And that examination has been given to us by Father in the form of Passover. But Judas kept the commandment...
╫ The World Teaches Men To Be Cowards - Don't Be One [PODCAST]
April 16, 2019 15:03 - 25 minutes - 17.9 MBMen, God calls you to be a man. But it looks different from what the world considers a "real man." We live in a culture that teaches men to be cowards. A culture where men are encouraged and considered "strong" when they go to hang out at a bar with friends every night, instead of coming home to a family. Or to date the same girl for years and years and years on end without ever putting a ring on her finger. In reality, this world teaches men to be boys, and many boys never grow up to become ...
╫ WE'RE MARRIED! And our Red Sea crossing... [PODCAST]
April 10, 2019 13:55 - 13 minutes - 9.32 MBWe're married! And what a journey it was… The past year the Father has brought us through various red sea crossings and challenges where everything was about to go completely wrong unless He came through at the last moment. And He did come through, every single time. Christina and I would like to share some of that with you, how God makes promises, builds trust, and why we rejoice in these tribulations.
╫ Behind the Mask: Religious Appearances Without Relationship [PODCAST]
April 08, 2019 07:48 - 9 minutes - 6.43 MBStudies show that couples who spend more on their wedding ceremony and engagement ring are at a higher risk of divorce later in the marriage, compared to couples who spent less extravagantly on their wedding. But why? Similar to some couples who may be marrying for status, wealth, the show of a big ceremony, or the outward appearances - many think they can be a bride who marries God for the same reasons. Many go to church every week, keep every festival, attend every bible study, every confe...
╫ Call No Man Rabbi? [PODCAST]
March 25, 2019 08:26 - 42 minutes - 29.6 MBA rabbi walks through the streets of Jerusalem. As he walks to the feast, all the men and women stare and call on him: "Rabbi! Rabbi!" As he gets there, he continues to the uppermost room. Everyone stares, everyone says: "Rabbi! You are here!" And he loves to be called Rabbi. Jesus saw this over and over again, these men knew and taught the word and were highly respected. Now there's nothing wrong with respect, but they loved to be called "master", "teacher", "esteemed one", "mighty one". Th...

╫ Let God Bring The Increase - The Parable of the Growing Seed [PODCAST]
March 15, 2019 22:19 - 18 minutes - 12.6 MBGod has called us to spread the truth He has revealed to us. But sometimes it's hard, sometimes people don't listen, and sometimes it feels like it's all in vain and we'll never be "skilled enough" to see many come to Christ. But Jesus told a parable to His disciples that showed them that similar to how we water & plant a tree, yet aren't the ones to actually make it grow, we are called to plant and water seeds in people, yet it is God who ultimately brings the increase. This means it's not...

╫ USA Immigration & Wedding - UPDATE [PODCAST]
March 10, 2019 19:53 - 3 minutes - 2.79 MBHi guys! I've landed in the USA! A big thank you to everyone who has lifted my immigration and wedding plans up to Father in prayer the last year, as well as support the ministry through it all. I'm getting settled in on this side to get everything prepared for the new season. Here is a quick video update on the immigration journey, ministry, and my upcoming wedding.
╫ Why Africa Is Struggling [PODCAST]
March 08, 2019 15:46 - 6 minutes - 4.87 MBWhy does Africa struggle? While each country has its problems, few have the developmental problems the giant African continent faces. Africa is one of the richest continents in the world in precious metals and other resources - it has everything it needs to prosper - but why are large portions of this continent so often left behind in poverty, crime, war, corruption, racism and many other evils? As with all things in life, the root reason is spiritual; and here is why Africa is still strugg...
#1 Key To Choosing "THE ONE" [PODCAST]
February 27, 2019 14:55 - 11 minutes - 8.17 MBTo marry, and whom we marry is the biggest decision in life next to deciding to follow Christ. Yet often this decision is rushed into by people who aren't both completely "sold out" to God. The marriage will seem fine at first, but soon things start crumbling. We then throw our hands to God and ask "why", yet we married someone who never truly died to themselves. Marriage is supposed to have a primary purpose of glorifying God. It's not primarily about you, your spouse, house or kids. It's s...
╫ Lifting Moses Above Jesus [PODCAST]
February 20, 2019 14:17 - 20 minutes - 14.2 MBAfter multiplying the bread and fishes, Yeshua says something controversial: That Moses did NOT give them the bread from heaven, but rather it is the Father who brings forth bread from Heaven. This teaching was so controversial that much of the crowds left His audience. It can become so easy for us to get fixated on the bread that God gives to temporarily satisfy, that we miss what the bread is actually pointing to. These people were dependent on the manna from Moses to save them, yet Yeshua...
╫ 4 Signs of the End: Why Jesus Cannot Come Back This Year [PODCAST]
February 20, 2019 14:11 - 30 minutes - 20.9 MBHaven't you heard? The end of the world is approaching yet again. As we enter the new year, the Internet is rumoured with signs of the end. But what does the Bible really teach surrounding this? What are the authentic signs we need to look out for to anticipate Jesus' return? If we do not know scripture and prophecy, we will be deceived by rumours. And if you knew scripture, you would know that it is simply impossible for Jesus to come back this year. God has written His bride a love letter ...
╫ Is God Your Hobby? [PODCAST]
February 09, 2019 13:14 - 13 minutes - 9.19 MBLet’s be real for a moment. Praying for people, reading our bibles, doing “spiritual” things isn’t always fun. In fact, sometimes there’s a lot of other things I feel like I’d rather do. But what do we do with this feeling? And what does this feeling tell us about our relationship with God? I would like to submit to you,: if you always only did everything you do for God for the excitement or fun nature thereof, then God has become nothing more than a hobby to you instead of your lifestyle. ...
╫ New Age, Paganism & Witchcraft Will Destroy Your Life [PODCAST]
February 06, 2019 14:11 - 20 minutes - 14.4 MBWhether it is the New Age, Paganism, Witchcraft, Yoga, Ouija Boards, Tarot Cards or consulting the dead - witchcraft is more diverse than ever before and is being accepted into the mainstream culture more and more every day, even into various churches. This is the story of a girl who travelled far and wide to receive freedom from evil spirits that have been oppressing her entire life after her deep involvement in various kinds of witchcraft. After seeking to get rid of evil spirits with othe...
╫ Did Jesus Break The Sabbath? [PODCAST]
February 01, 2019 23:11 - 18 minutes - 12.7 MBThe Pharisees often came against Jesus, telling Him that He is doing what is unlawful to do on the Sabbath. At first glance, it seemed like He continuously had no regard for this law. And this belief is evident in much of Christianity, where this 4th commandment has become a mere decoration on our tablets of the ten. But did Jesus really break the Sabbath? Or is there a grave misunderstanding that has come about and caused great deception? The most concerning of all is that if our Messiah tr...
╫ Overwhelming Info & Idols of the End [PODCAST]
January 30, 2019 20:26 - 56 minutes - 38.7 MBWe have entered a new age of information at our fingertips like never before. But how can we sift through all the information, topics, and entertainment without falling into focussing on the things Yeshua would have never focussed on? Are we in danger of creating idols out of our favourite topics and being distracted from the most important things? For example, there is nothing wrong with investigating conspiracies or being a film fan, but when it consumes everything we think and talk about,...
╫ The Greatest & Least in Heaven - Torah Portion: Jethro [PODCAST]
January 27, 2019 13:02 - 54 minutes - 37.8 MBYeshua spoke of a greatest and least in the heavens in Matthew 5, but who are the "greatest"? Yeshua raised the standard of the law, by giving it meaning, filling it up with love, and walking it out properly for us to see. But did He come to throw away the foundational laws of His Father of which He raised the standard on? You see, Yeshua cannot teach that we may not look at a woman with lust because that is adultery in the heart, yet condone the physical act of adultery. It’s obvious, rig...
╫ I love tattoos, but I'd never get them again - Tattoo Testimony [PODCAST]
January 23, 2019 19:52 - 19 minutes - 13.5 MBLene had an interesting journey with tattoos. After initially seeking to express who she was through getting a tattoo, she later realised it's no longer who she is after Christ came to change her from the inside out. Her new identity was brand new! It didn't need any accessory to tell the world who she was, for He who now lives in her shined brightly of His glory. And while our flesh can still take delight in the things of the world, we need to decide who we will follow - the guiding of the ...
╫ Pressed For His Glory - Torah Portion: When He Sent [PODCAST]
January 18, 2019 21:34 - 39 minutes - 27.5 MBGod is always one step ahead of the enemy's plans, He is never caught off guard nor surprised. In the direst situations we can face, where it seems like there is no way out, that God’s promises are about to fail, and that He has forsaken us, God splits the sea and comes through at the very last moment. For at that moment, we realise that it could be nothing but God. He gets the glory and fame, and we are built in faith and character. When you face trials, rejoice! For without them, no man w...
╫ Can Christians Get Tattoos? [PODCAST]
January 18, 2019 21:21 - 31 minutes - 21.9 MBTattoos are controversial. In the past, tattoos were always associated with crime, pagans, and evil. But today tattoos have become more acceptable in our culture, and have often even been encouraged by certain church cultures. But what does the Bible really teach about tattoos and what does God think about it?
╫ Don't Be Ashamed: Escaping Satan's Lies [PODCAST]
January 12, 2019 14:00 - 11 minutes - 8.95 MBOften in our journeys with God, we can fall into shame, guilt and condemnation when we don't feel like we are "good enough" or "doing enough" for God. Satan takes the opportunity to lie to us, and we listen to the wrong voice. This can be dire, for this shame actually makes us more passive for His Kingdom than anything else. But if you better understand God's character, you'll better understand what He thinks of you. The God who knows every hair on your head is on your side! For you, it all ...
╫ The End Times Passover - Torah Portion: Come [PODCAST]
January 12, 2019 11:52 - 42 minutes - 29.6 MBThe first thing God commanded Israel to ever do is to celebrate a festival as their first point of departure and set-apartness from Egypt. To eat a perfect lamb, and to share that lamb with their neighbour. Today God is presenting an end days repeat of Passover, where we are to partake in the perfect Lamb of God and to share that lamb with our neighbour. It has always been about ensuring that all with a clean heart has the knowledge to paint their doorposts with His blood. Are you prepare...
╫ Pastors: Stop Delaying Baptism! [PODCAST]
January 06, 2019 09:12 - 7 minutes - 5.32 MBThe common process today for getting baptized is asking a pastor, joining a class, having your name put on a list, and then waiting for the next "baptism church service". But is this biblical? What does the scripture say regarding the process of baptism? You may be surprised to see it addresses this very issue of delaying baptism and takes it very seriously. Why do you wait? Rise on be baptized, today.
╫ Most Important End Times Message: You Are Sent To Israel [PODCAST]
January 02, 2019 14:45 - 10 minutes - 7.68 MBWhile we go to church for the next sermon, to the next worship event, the next evangelist speaker - while we go through the motions, we often forget an important group Jesus was sent to: The lost sheep of Israel. Paul prophesied that Christianity is to "provoke the jew to jealousy" and that it is an essential piece to the puzzle for Jesus' return. But are we as believers in the Messiah succeeding in this? Why do our non-believing Jewish brothers not want Him? Why are they blinded? Could it b...
╫ How to Baptize in 6 Steps [PODCAST]
January 01, 2019 07:42 - 18 minutes - 12.9 MBBaptizing someone can be an intimidating part of the gospel to do when doing it for the first time, but it is simple - and the Holy Spirit is your teacher! Here are 6 steps on how to baptize someone.
╫ Into What Name Should We Baptize? [PODCAST]
December 26, 2018 17:49 - 17 minutes - 12 MBOne of the most hotly debated topics around baptism is which name or names to use when conducting it. Many have even gone back to get rebaptized in a different name from before because they believe their baptism wasn't authentic when doing it the first time under a certain name. Most of this confusion stems from the scriptures being inconsistent in how baptisms were done. Jesus told us to baptize in the "Father, Son and Holy Spirit", while the disciples simply baptized others into the "Name ...
╫ Full Time Ministry Journey & Immigration Updates [PODCAST]
December 25, 2018 12:20 - 12 minutes - 8.46 MBI would like to share with you my journey into full-time ministry with some tips for those who may desire to do the same, as well as an update on where we are with my US immigration. We would greatly appreciate your prayers.
╫ The Mystery of God's Election - Torah Portion: He Lived [PODCAST]
December 23, 2018 10:39 - 29 minutes - 21 MBWhat is it that causes God to pour out the firstborn blessing on a secondborn child? What moves God to elect someone for His glory? Many believe it's up to random chance, but Jesus told us what causes God to bless. It's not how well you speak, who your father is, how rich or poor you are, or where you grew up. It's something much more significant. God prefers to use those of a certain character, even sometimes those who are lost and weak. So we need to ask ourselves what is the character Go...
╫ Think Twice Before You Go "Full Time Ministry" [PODCAST]
December 19, 2018 14:13 - 16 minutes - 11.1 MBMany want to do "full-time ministry" and it's considered a dream by many. But did you know that the Bible calls this the most dangerous job in the world? For reasons that may not be obvious, it truly is. And many run into seminary or an eldership role before understanding what they are getting themselves into or without being called by God to do so. If you do not enter this role with fear and trembling, you may find yourself being judged way more strictly as written in James. Think twice bef...
╫ Beards & The Bible: Can Men Shave? [PODCAST]
December 17, 2018 07:51 - 18 minutes - 13.4 MBOne of the first questions asked when we realize that we need to be obedient to the whole Bible is: "Doesn't the Bible say men are not allowed to ever cut their beards (Leviticus 19)?" Should men have long beards? Or are they allowed to shave? Let's address the question in this short teaching on beards in the Bible.
╫ Do you have TRUE relationship with God? [PODCAST]
December 13, 2018 10:42 - 15 minutes - 12.4 MBReligious observance is not the relationship. Does your relationship with God stretch past the keeping of a command, attendance of a festival or bible study, or saying a prayer at the dinner table? We have all heard about having a "relationship" with God, but what does that truly mean? Many in the world look like they have a relationship with God, but while men judge by appearance, God judges by the heart. And sometimes our heart's aren't pure.
╫ WORKING ON AN AUDIOBOOK! [PODCAST]

╫ Reaching a Spouse with Truth - 4 Important Points [PODCAST]
December 10, 2018 08:56 - 13 minutes - 10.1 MBWhen God comes to reveal Himself, or a Truth to us, one of the biggest challenges we can face is when our spouse isn't on board with the journey. But how do we effectively communicate to and love them in the midst of disagreement? When we look at the biblical pattern of how Jesus communicated the truth to His bride, we learn how to treat our husbands and wives and love them well. Here are 4 points on how to reach your spouse with the truth.
╫ ALL IS VANITY [PODCAST]
December 06, 2018 07:56 - 10 minutes - 9.33 MBYour life is temporary and the countdown has begun. As the seconds tick by, what is most important to you in life will determine whether your life has an impact on eternity. When we get swallowed in the work & toil of the every day, we often lose perspective. All these things are temporary instead of eternal and striving after wind. But come and see, there is something eternal - what is your focus?
╫ The Hidden Prophecy of Hope in Joseph - Torah Portion: And He Lived [PODCAST]
December 01, 2018 14:41 - 30 minutes - 22.5 MBWe all know the famous story of Joseph with his coat of many colors. But what if from the beginning, this story contains a prophetic picture of the soon to be revealed Messiah of the world; and the hope He is to bring unto the ends of the ages? This story gives a deeper revelation of the beauty of Messiah. Furthermore, this story teaches us about God's unfailing promises, fulfilled in Yeshua, and to be fulfilled in us today. Torah Portion: Vayeshev | And He Lived | וַיֵּשֶׁב
╫ Don't let them control you - True Circumcision [PODCAST]
December 01, 2018 14:39 - 17 minutes - 12.5 MBFrom the beginning, men have loved control. The name of God has been used repeatedly to exercise this control through all manner of religious works and observances that miss the point of love. And often we are not innocent, we love control too. We want to see others do what we do, and when they don't - we want to play God. But how long, crooked generation, until you see that God is the one to change the heart, and not you. Torah Portion: Vayishlach | He sent | וישלח
╫ A Missionary Dies For The Gospel - John Chau [PODCAST]

╫ When All Goes Wrong: Wrestle with God - Torah Portion: He sent [PODCAST]
November 23, 2018 23:13 - 29 minutes - 20.8 MBWhat does it mean to "wrestle with God" as Jacob did? In the face of danger, when all seems to go wrong, and all we're left with is a promise from God, what will we do? We need to be like Jacob: to take hold of, and cry out to Father to not let us go until He blesses us! For that is where we find God face-to-face. However, when Jacob wrestled with God, God touched his hip and it was dislocated. But why? There is something profound that Father wants to teach us in relation to trusting Him ...

╫ The Names of God - Discussion [PODCAST]
November 21, 2018 14:36 - 21 minutes - 14.8 MBThe names of God - How did we end up with so many names? Is using the name "Jesus" a sin? What should our focus be regarding the names of God? What would Yeshua do regarding all this? What is the best way we can love in this situation? Join PD and Christina in this live discussion regarding the names of God and movements such as sacred name.
╫ Why Jesus Cast the Demons Into Pigs - Unclean Food [PODCAST]
November 17, 2018 14:00 - 44 minutes - 31.3 MBWhy did Jesus cast the demons into the pigs? What was His motivation? And why did the demons desire to enter the pigs in the first place? In this video, we will look at answering these questions, as well as go through every single New Testament scripture that seems to indicate that we can eat "whatever we want" and we shouldn't be worried about God's words regarding unclean food in Leviticus 11. I hope this teaching edifies you and equips you to be able to "give an account for the hope that...
╫ I don't know what to call Him anymore - Jesus, Yeshua, Yahuah, God, Lord? [PODCAST]
November 14, 2018 14:00 - 7 minutes - 5.64 MBI have consistently seen those obsessed with persecuting others for not pronouncing God or His Son's names "right", or forbidding the use of titles like "God" or "Father", bears no good fruit. No caring for the poor No uncompromising, radical love No making of disciples No healing of the sick No casting out demons No freedom Just living on Facebook all day causing division. I am a simple man, I just judge a tree by its fruit, and this one is rotten to its root.
╫ The Power of Your Birthright (Jacob & Esau) - Torah Portion: Toldot [PODCAST]
November 11, 2018 17:52 - 35 minutes - 25 MBYour life is all about an eternal birthright. Before the foundation of the world, before everything, God spoke a calling over your life for you to pursue and accomplish. A calling in line with glorifying His kingdom. But many miss this birthright, despise it, and therefore miss out on the blessing. The story of Jacob & Esau teaches us about birthright, how to fulfil it, what happens when we do, and what happens when we don't. What you do with an eternal birthright in the midst of a temporary...
╫ Laying Hands and Getting Demons? (1 Tim 5:22) [PODCAST]
November 05, 2018 08:40 - 14 minutes - 10.5 MBWhen laying hands on others, is it possible for us to receive demons? This is a serious concern that has discouraged many from laying hands to pray for others. But what does the Bible really say? Note: This video answers the question in relation to a Holy Spirit filled believer laying hands to pray for someone else. It does not address demons imparted through witchcraft. For a teaching on the Kundalini Spirit, please watch "The Kundalini Counterfeit": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrcjqyPf...
╫ Halloween - Does God Care? [PODCAST]
October 30, 2018 12:14 - 16 minutes - 11.9 MBIt's that time of the year again. With the decorations, the celebrations of darkness, and the trick or treating from door to door. The question is, what would Jesus do on a day like this? When we do the same thing every year, over and over again, anything and everything becomes so natural to us that we never stop to ask: Where does this all come from? And does it please God? Let's see what the Bible says about celebrating Halloween.
╫ The Covenants of God - Torah Portion: Go Forth [PODCAST]
October 26, 2018 20:17 - 50 minutes - 35.4 MBCan you imagine being married, with a wedding contract you've never seen? Or being married to a spouse yet not knowing their expectations, likes or dislikes, or cultural background? Yet that's the state of many Christians. Just about every denomination has a different opinion on which parts of God's covenants are for us. Many enter covenant with God without even knowing what their covenant says, and consequently without understanding God's expectations, likes and dislikes, and culture. It...
╫ Paul: All Things to All People - Romans Series (Chapt. 15 - 16) [PODCAST]
October 19, 2018 06:19 - 1 hour - 46.5 MBHave you ever wondered how Paul did it? He reached the nations from north to south, east to west with the gospel. Reaching diverse pagan cultures and being able to connect with them, all without compromising his holiness. Even though we don't belong to this world, we can still connect with the lost as both Jesus and Paul did. In fact, Paul writes of how he did this in the last few chapters of Romans. He not only addresses how we can connect with the unbeliever, but also how to walk out our r...
