Fire, fear, and forever are heavy words—but we don’t use them to scare you. We use them because Jesus did. He spoke more about hell than anyone else in Scripture, not to condemn us, but to wake us up to the weight of our choices and the cost of ignoring them. Through it all runs a hopeful truth: no one has to be lost. With urgency and mercy, we talk about cutting off whatever leads us to sin and choosing the life God offers.
What if the “imaginary friend” you grew up with wasn’t so imaginary? We open a candid conversation about the unseen influences that can shadow childhood and follow us into adult life—urging risky choices, breeding isolation, and draining peace from the home. Through clear examples and a grounded perspective, we outline warning signs families often overlook and explore how to respond when a playful presence turns coercive.Joycelyn’s story brings the issue into sharp focus. As a kid, she woke up screaming, saw figures in her room, and heard a voice telling her to run from her family.If you’ve felt watched, pressured, or pushed by an unseen weight—on the bus, at work, or alone at night—this conversation offers a way forward.
Night shouldn’t feel dangerous. Yet for so many people, the dark hours bring a flood of dread—choking sensations, a weight on the chest, flickering screens, footsteps in an empty room, and the paralyzing feeling of being awake but unable to move. We lean into this uncomfortable truth with open eyes and a steady voice, walking through the signs of spiritual oppression and the practical steps to reclaim peace.We share Tashana’s powerful story, from childhood trauma and homelessness to a desperate choice that fractured her sense of self. She describes seeing evil in the eyes of a client, sleep paralysis that felt like hands around her throat, and the moment she finally stepped away. Whether you frame these moments as sleep paralysis, spiritual warfare, or both, you’ll leave with tools to stand your ground, a community to call on, and hope that holds through the night.
Ever felt watched in an empty room or pinned to your bed by a fear you can’t explain? We go straight at the experiences many people whisper about—nighttime voices, shadowy figures, rising panic—and unpack how they collide with real, diagnosable symptoms like suicidal thoughts, insomnia, and depression. You’ll hear Damien’s unscripted story: years of hearing voices, seeing frightening images, and feeling a heavy presence that robbed his sleep and sanity. He searched for help, found confusion, and almost gave up—until he discovered a community that treated his suffering seriously and offered steady support. If you or someone you love is battling night terrors, paranoia, or relentless anxiety, this conversation offers language, tools, and a next step toward rest.If this helped, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs courage tonight, and leave a review so others can find practical hope.

Ever set a table, waited with hope, and watched a chair stay empty? That ache frames a bigger truth we explore: what happens when we treat God’s invitation like a casual RSVP. We walk through Jesus’ parable of the wedding feast and the hard line between being called and being chosen—how willingness, not worthiness, becomes the turning point. The imagery is vivid: a prepared banquet, servants sent, and guests who make light of the moment. That indifference isn’t just impolite; it’s spiritually costly.We share why “many are called, few are chosen” isn’t fate but invitation—your yes aligns you with the life God has prepared. If you’ve been drifting, this is your cue; if you’ve been discouraged, this is your strength.

Ever notice how the most unsettling doubts arrive as perfectly reasonable questions? We open with a simple, strong idea: not every question needs your attention.

What if you’re waiting for a green light God already gave? We take a hard look at the gap between prayer and action. We reflect on the legacy of “by faith” lives—Abel’s risk, Enoch’s walk, Abraham’s leap, Moses’ courage—and how those choices were made without a library of testimonies or a timeline of guarantees. The takeaway is simple and demanding: you don’t need to see to believe; you need to believe to see.

In today's episode, Bishop Joshua gives a brief message - straight to the point. Life is a series of seasons, each bringing its own set of experiences and lessons. For those on a journey of faith with God, these seasons can fluctuate between times of abundant blessings and challenging problems. Understanding how to navigate these different phases is crucial to maintaining a strong and resilient faith. Faith is not just about cherishing the good times but also about persevering through the hardships. Your reactions to these problems show your level of spirituality. While it’s natural to hope for blessings, we must also cultivate acceptance of life's challenges. True faith involves trusting that every season, whether good or bad, serves a purpose and contributes to our growth. Embracing both blessings and problems with an open heart allows us to deepen our relationship with Jesus and strengthen our spiritual journey.
Fear that whispers you’re losing your mind can be more than stress—it can be a spiritual battle that started with a desperate choice.
