Soros is only part of the equation though as these roots run deeper into culture. Adam B. Coleman provides his perspective on the black community and the crisis o...
The Greatest In Babylon
June 29, 2023 10:00 - 5 minutesMorning Motivation: The Greatest In Babylon Imagine the disappointment if you're dying of thirst and you see a well and you desperately pull the bucket out of the well and it's empty.

The Bible as Hate Speech: Be The Church
June 09, 2023 11:10 - 4 minutesMorning Motivation: The Bible as Hate Speech: Be The Church You can't just say you're a Christian. You're called to do more.

June 08, 2023 17:38 - 6 minutesA prominent and rich member of the council that put Jesus to death "did not consent" to his murder, but didn't try to stop it either. Why not?

The Bible As Hate Speech: Did Not See Fit
June 07, 2023 10:30 - 7 minutesMorning Motivation: The Bible As Hate Speech: Did Not See Fit It was a very simple reason why God gave us over to a debased mind. The only way we'll make sure we don't fall for the lies is if we have a conviction. A conviction like only 1/6 of pastors in Germany had in 1935. Will you be in that minority when it happens here?

The Bible as Hate Speech: Hitler as Lord
June 06, 2023 14:40 - 8 minutesMorning Motivation: The Bible as Hate Speech: Hitler as Lord Hitler told Pastor Niemueller, "You worry about your sermons."

The Bible as Hate Speech: Vulgar and Violent
June 05, 2023 12:00 - 12 minutesMorning Motivation: The Bible as Hate Speech: Vulgar and Violent A Utah school district has banned the Bible because it's vulgar and violent. Remember: the ultimate goal of all of the progressive movements we see, whether it's LGBTQIA+ or BLM, is to destroy the Christian Church. The causes we see them fight for are mere means to their ultimate goal.

Loving Your Enemies: Beast-Like
June 01, 2023 10:00 - 9 minutesMORNING MOTIVATION: Loving Your Enemies: Beast-Like I had a road rage incident the other day. Not proud of it.

INSTANT REACTION: Ron DeSantis & The Campaign
May 25, 2023 00:02 - 9 minutesThoughts On DeSantis and The Campaign I sat down to share some thoughts on DeSantis' faith, but I want to save that because listening to DeSantis's launch and people's reactions to it made me angry. Three things flooded into my brain: Making idols, a sovereign God and Ben Franklin's advice to the founders. We have to get started on the right foot or we'll never make it to the end alive.

Growing In Grace: CHARIS
May 24, 2023 11:00 - 6 minutesMorning Motivation: Growing In Grace: CHARIS Healthy plants and animals grow. Why don't we also expect our souls to grow, too? God tells us we need to grow in grace. But, what is grace? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Crazy Culture of Emotion
May 23, 2023 15:30 - 38 minutesIt's always Pride Month, it seems. How did we get to this point in our culture? Where trans fake nuns are honored at baseball games and men are sexually dancing in front of little girls? One reason is that we confused affections with emotions and let our feelings run the show. Esau is the clearest example. We see it around us every day.

May 22, 2023 15:00 - 49 minutesAmerica has never been this close to de-dollarization.

Growing In Grace: Justification
May 22, 2023 11:00 - 6 minutesMorning Motivation - Growing In Grace: Justification God says we need to "grow in Grace". It's so easy to skim over that command without examining it. Let's get to the bottom of it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Clickbait, Fake News & The Mindless Narrative
May 20, 2023 12:00 - 44 minutesOur media is no longer fueled by the truth. It's only mission...clicks. They will stop at nothing to create absurd headlines & stories (like Donald Trump with prostitutes in Moscow) and massive amounts of people run with it assuming it's true. Today we'll share two viral tiktoks to prove this point and bring it back to the false prophet Hananiah to prove there's nothing new under the sun.

Biden, White Supremacists and You
May 16, 2023 15:00 - 44 minutesBiden told a crowd of black graduates that the biggest terrorist threat is White Supremacy. When will we say enough of this already?

Christianity Is a Fight. Name The Enemy.
May 16, 2023 11:45 - 5 minutesMorning Motivation: Christianity Is a Fight. Name The Enemy. One of the fundamental mistakes of the "War On Terror" is we refused to name the enemy. You can't win if you can't identify who you are fighting against. It's the same with most Christians. They think Christianity is a fun cruise ship. They don't know it's a way. So who is the enemy?

Cruise Ship of Battleship
May 15, 2023 10:00 - 9 minutesMORNING MOTIVATION True Christianity is a fight. Our modern culture tells us the greatest virtue is to be nice, and you can't have enemies because that's mean and no one is wrong about anything because "who are you to judge, stop being so mean." But if you don't think Christianity is a fight, the enemy has you right where he wants you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Chaos On The Border & The Bible
May 13, 2023 11:00 - 38 minutesThe border is in a state of Chaos. God is a God of order. In this episode, we talk about where Title 42 came from, why we created an asylum program (which none of these people qualify for), and what the Bible says about immigrants.

May 12, 2023 11:00 - 9 minutesMoms, have you ever fallen into the trap of thinking you're doing only little, insignificant things?

Preach The Gospel, and ALWAYS Use Words
May 10, 2023 10:15 - 6 minutesMorning Motivation: Preach The Gospel, and ALWAYS Use Words There's a popular Christianese expression that St. Francis of Assisi did NOT say, "Preach the Gospel, and if necessary, use words". That's not Biblical at all. And in today's time, it's essential to get it right. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
