Danny was the son of a Pastor, living in the south before he was uprooted by his parents' relocation to the Pacific Northwest. At the age of 14, he was faced with the culture shock of public school, after being home-schooled his entire life. He would resort to alcohol and drugs to make friends in a new environment. Danny dropped out of school at the age of 15 and left home to live on the streets and from crack house to crack house. He was the victim of sexual abuse and became a drug addict at the end of his rope.After lying on the floor with a needle in his arm, syringe dangling, he realized this would be his legacy and how people would remember him. It was that realization that lead to him checking into a rehabilitation facility, where he would eventually get clean and sober. He is now the founder and CEO of Rock Bottom Hope. This ministry is a resource for people in the same situation Danny was in long ago. They provide a safe environment for people to be heard and for addicts to find sobriety and counseling.

He discusses 3 elements of a violent attack which are force, space, and timing. We also discuss observing a potential predator and understanding the checkpoints of hands, hands, waistband, and wingspan. Kevin teaches us about desire, opportunity, and ability which are components of a violent offender and what they will leverage to overtake their victim.

FACTS ABOUT FREQUENCYTuning an instrument properly requires alignment with a frequency or a standardized baseline Instruments do not magically and accidentally fall back into tuning or alignment. Our hearts will not automatically align with the standard God created. It is a never-ending constant intentional process. If left to itself, and if left unattended, our hearts will fall out of tune with our creator and our design.Clarity of Radio frequency depends on our tuning and alignment. The further away from Reception, I get the more the clarity of the messages affected.The clarity doesn’t mean the tower has moved. I have separated myself from the frequency. Same with God. He doesn’t move we separate and create distance. If my radio station is tuned to a particular frequency, it doesn’t mean that the other frequencies are shut down.I can only hear the frequency I’m tuned in to and in proximity of. God’s voice doesn’t stop speaking just because I am not close enough to listen. The Holy Spirit doesn’t stop communicating just because I am tuned into other things.KEY CONCEPTS TO TUNINGFrequency: The number of wave cycles (oscillations) that occur in one second, measured in Hertz (Hz). Wavelength: The distance between corresponding points on successive waves, such as two peaks. Modulation: The process of impressing information onto a radio wave, changing its amplitude or frequency to carry the message.

A biblically articulated and applied ecclesiology is happening in churches at a growing rate. Together we are walking out leading in Jesus’ plans for His church, and encouraging each other along the way. Jason Shepperd planted Church Project, a Church of House Churches, in 2010 in The Woodlands, TX. With no people, no place, no money, and no outside support, Church Project started as nothing more than an idea. Since 2010, thousands now gather weekly in local “House Church” communities, and millions of dollars have been directed to gospel-centered ministries. Jason has also started and oversees Church Project Network, House Church Network, GOOD CITY, START WITH 7 and GOOD GOD GOSPELSUPPORT JASON'S MINISTRY:https://www.churchproject.org/https://jasonshepperd.com/https://goodgodgospel.com/OPEN MIC: CHARLIE KIRK 1 WEEK REMOVED FROM HIS DEATH HIS WORK WITH COLLEGE STUDENTS CRAVING TRUTH IS THERE A VERSE HEAVY IN YOUR SPIRIT RIGHT NOW TO PRAY OVER OUR NATION?

HERES WHY WE STRUGGLE AS THE BRIDE AND BODY OF CHRIST. WE HATE HARD TRUTHWE RESIST BIBLE WITH TEETHHebrews 5:11-14 “About this we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing. For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the basic principles of the oracles of God. You need milk, not solid food, for everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child. But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.”CONDITIONED TO KEEP UP APPEARANCES I GOT THIS ON MY OWN!DUCK IN WATERFAKE IT TIL WE MAKE ITBACKDROP & FRAMEWORK what shapes the way you internalize conceptualize contextualize and apply scripture?We are most impressionable in our early childhood and teenage years.The people we are exposed to people we idolize or look up to most influence and mold our worldview, perspective, and interpretations.We can break bad habits we can break the mold and we can reprogram our neural pathways.However, it is such a long process, and it requires so much discipline and commitment to exposure of truth, and to be immersed in a new way of thinking repetitively.So many people water down the scriptures because they don’t want to deepen their understanding or expand their knowledge because it would require so much of a change in an adjustment to their ordinary way of processing the world, relationship relationships, their own identity, and information in general.Our pain dictates our perspectiveOur difficulty has defined where we derive our dependence.we are Not defined by our scars, but by Jesus’s scars and sacrifice.WAYS WE MIS-DEFINE THE BIBLEWAYS WE DILUTE AND SANITIZEWe talk about the lamb but hardly ever the lionWe talk about the armor of God, but rarely discuss our heads on a silver platter.

I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.” Galatians 5:19-21 dog to its own vomit“For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.”2 Peter 2:20-21 Dragon slayer Jesus in revelation, bloody robe , eyes of fireTo those who say, Lord Lord, he will say go away from me. I never knew you. ““Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’”Matthew 7:21-23
https://www.drewparkermusic.com It takes some folks 10 years to make a name for themselves in Music City, but in the three short years that Drew Parker has lived in Nashville, TN, he has been able to accomplish things he never dreamed were possible.Coming from a small, unincorporated town of Stewart, Georgia (located in Covington, Georgia), Parker began singing at age 3 in front of small church crowds. Over the years, he began to build his confidence and, at age 14, he decided to pick up a guitar and teach himself how to play songs from his inspirations, such as Keith Whitley, Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Travis Tritt, and Alan Jackson. At age 18, he expanded his musical abilities and learned to play piano, both of which he still uses today to craft lyrics and rhymes into songs. Parker made the move to Nashville, Tennessee in 2015 and signed a publishing deal with RiverHouse/WarnerChappell in September of 2017. He is a co-writer on Luke Combs’ debut platinum record “This Ones For You”, Jake Owen’s single “Homemade” and Luke Combs’ “1,2 Many”. Aside from his cowboy hat and boots, Drew Parker is the definition of true country. He is genuine, honest, and carries an old soul that resonates with many. He is on the rise and sees no end in sight. MUSICLYRICAL WORD-SMITHING IS A COMMODITY HOW MET LUKE COMBS?OLD SCHOOL ARTISTS YOU ADMIRED MOST?

Are you watchful? Are you alert? Are you self-aware to know if you personally you’re going through that?If not, you dealing with it directly, what are you doing to be observant, watchful and helpful to serve those who are struggling mightily?“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.””Matthew 11:28-30 “O Timothy, guard the deposit entrusted to you. Avoid the irreverent babble and contradictions of what is falsely called “knowledge,” for by professing it some have swerved from the faith. Grace be with you.”1 Timothy 6:20-21 “For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds.

“For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.”2 Corinthians 10:3-6 “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.”Ephesians 6:10-13 “No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons.”1 Corinthians 10:20-21 “Be sober-minded; be watchful.
