Who is the God of Israel? TS Wright Scott Wright is back with us today. Scott has been teaching us about the different ages of the Church and significant things the Bible and history has to say about them. Amen. Today, we will be answering the question, “Who do the Israelites believe God truly is?” To do that, help me welcome back to the program, our good friend, Scott Wright!  Scott, good to talk to you again, buddy! Alright, let’s jump into this… Doesn’t every good Jewish person believe God is the God of Moses? What do they believe about God? Didn’t Moses reflect God to the people of Israel?  You’d think they would have a pretty good grasp on these things, right? Do think the Israelites just took their relationship with God for granted? Why is all of this relevant to what we see happening today?  Especially in the war between Israel and Hamas right now? What should we, as Christians, take from this discussion today? Scott, this has been so interesting as we discuss the current situation over in Israel. If someone wants more information or would like to ask a question, how can they get in touch with you? I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below… Drop down into the show notes and reach out to Scott Wright. Get in touch with him. Subscribe to his podcast.  And be sure to purchase his journal and start learning all about the “God Centered Concepts” that he specializes in. Amen! Do it right now before you forget about it later. Amen!   CONTACT INFORMATION:   Email:   gccgodcenteredconcept2038@gmail.com Book:  “God Centered Concept Journal: Making God’s Word My Ways.”  - on Amazon Podcast:  The God Centered Concept
Out of the Darkness Richard LaMonica How many of you served in the military or know someone, a loved one perhaps, that served. These last twenty years have seen a lot of tragedy. Our military members have suffered the brunt of everything that has gone on. For some, most of their careers were spent during a time of war. Richard LaMonica served 22 years in the US Army.  He seen it all. After he retired, life was not easy. But, through perseverance and hard work, he is making a difference. He is now helping other vets to get their life back. Richard is the author of two books, “13 Step Guide to Success,” and also a fiction book, “Out of the Darkness.”   He is also a coach, speaker and also the host of a podcast, “TheMisFitNation” podcast. Help me welcome to the program, Richard LaMonica. Richard, it is a blessing to have you on the program today, I do appreciate your time. Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Richard LaMonica?” Like me, all you ever wanted to do was join the Army. I enlisted in September of my senior year and left for basic training 7 days after graduation. But yours took a little different route, correct? What was your MOS in the Army? When I left service, I thought I would be able to get a job fairly quickly – but soon found out that was not the case.  As I was contemplating my unique skill set, I realized there was not much opportunity for someone whose skill set was being trained to engage and destroy and make the other guy die for his country. Despite the leadership training, detailed planning, etc., it took me quite a while to find a good paying job. When you left service, you also found it a little difficult to get a job, correct? It took me quite a while to actually make the mindset transition from the military mindset to a civilian mindset. I’m talking about, “Something needs to be done – just do it.” Mission accomplishment, no matter how small the mission. In the civilian sector, it seemed like they were living by the adage of “Let’s put off till tomorrow that which could be accomplished today.”  Did you find the same thing? Your podcast is the “TheMisFitNation” podcast. How long have you been podcasting? Why did you pick that name, “TheMisFitNation” podcast? You share that your podcast promotes forward-thinking mindset and resiliency. Can you tell us a little more about your podcast and who you try to help and how? Do you serve as a referral source (of sorts) for vets seeking help and assistance? You also are an author. Your first book is the “13 Step Guide to Success.” What would you like to share about that book? One of the steps in your book is, “Do not make resolutions, they never work. Instead, create a list of 12 goals and write them down.”  Can you share a little bit about why you included that in your book? I loved the ones you included, I’ll just combine them here to save time. You tell your readers, “Go outside and breathe in the air. While outside, actually look up 3 inches and talk to another human – then bend down and...
Defeating Adversity Through Writing  Lori Keesey She’s written for daily newspapers and trade publications and her freelance work has appeared in regional and trade magazines, specifically those specializing in space exploration. Yes, Lori was a space junkie, and worked for NASA in public outreach for nearly 20 years. She calls herself and “accidental entrepreneur” and started the “Accidental Blogger” to help build an author platform, where she shares stories of overcoming adversity. She knows a thing or two, unfortunately, about that subject, as she faced her own tragedy when she lost her 33 year old son. Lori Keesey considers herself among the lucky. Recently retired, Lori enjoyed a 40-plus-year career as a writer and now has time to pursue her childhood dream of writing fictional characters who make a difference. She is launching her first novel, “Always Think of Me” in April of 2024. I read you worked for nearly 20 years with NASA in public outreach. I’ve been an avid space nut since about the age of 3. One of my earliest memories is watching Scott Carpenter on the first American suborbital flight in 1962.  In fact, I just returned from a trip to south Texas where I visited Stargate, where Elon Musk is launching his rockets.  So I have to be careful and not let our conversation today start to take on a flight all its own… Let’s start with what motivated you to begin the “Accidental Blogger.”  Was it a way to deal with your son’s death? How did your Faith help you deal with everything at that time? Does tragedy tend to challenge or change someone’s belief in God? I read that you came to the realization that he belonged to God his whole life, and was just “on loan to you” until his mission was completed. How did you come to that realization? I read that you came to the realization that tragedy comes in different forms our entire life. Can you explain for us what you mean by that? You also said that you measure time differently now. You reference pre and post tragedy. Do you find others use the same time measure after their experiences? People react differently when they experience some sort of tragedy. Some are angry, others sad. Still some have regret. Are all of these just moving through the different stages of grief differently or are they truly dealing with it in different manners? You also interviewed John Carter Cash about dealing with his addiction and, I guess you could say, how it runs in the family. What was the one thing you took from that interview that still sticks in your mind today? Let’s shift to a discussion about your book, “Always Think of Me.”  Why did you write this book and why publish now? I know it’s supposed to be published soon… April (2024), correct? This is a novel. Can you give us a brief synopsis of the book? I’m not going to ask “who” inspired this story – but does it have some reality included that affected you in some way? When will it be available for sale? I have one more question for you that came out of the research I was doing to get ready for our interview today… Can you share with us a little bit about an interview you did with a publicity shy...
Veterans Success Club Joe O’Connor At the age of 14 Joe O’Connor was involved in a serious near fatal road incident that left him in a wheelchair for a year. Undaunted, Joe resumed his life and achieved things he was told were not physically possible. Then at the age of 37 whilst on selection with the UK’s Elite Special Forces (S.A.S.), He was blown off a mountain ridge during a military training exercise, falling some 400 feet, breaking his neck, leading to two spinal injury specialists determining a prognosis of lifelong paralysis. One thing Joe recognized, is these experiences presented him with an opportunity to choose how his life would pan out and, on both occasions, he chose to move forward using each incident as his guide to achieve greater success. He refused to accept what fate seemed to have handed him. On both occasions he made a conscious decision to improvise, adapt and overcome and, in doing so, transformed his life. Joe holds the personal proof that every single pivotal moment in your life, gives you the opportunity to choose how your life turns out - rather than let life just happen to you. Does that make sense? Joe has been coaching wealth management and financial strategies for over 35 years reaching over 5,000 people. Of those, 80 per cent have been veterans and business entrepreneurs. His programs have helped people all over the world to become financially free and created many millionaires. His is the founder of the “Transformation for Veterans” nonprofit – aimed at helping military veterans and ambitious business owners to increase their knowledge and achieve greater success and financial independence. Because of his military background and all that he has been through in life, overcoming challenge after challenge, Joe understands the unique challenges and triumphs you face – no matter your background. Amen! Joe was finally able to fulfill his personal mission to complete the New York City Marathon… amen! Help me welcome to the program, Joe O’Connor!  Joe, I’ve been looking forward to this conversation since we first connected, brother! Share your story with us… What was your life like after that? When did you first start to come up with the idea to help other veterans? What is the difference between the “Transformer Lifestyle Company” and the work you do with veterans? Can you share a little bit about some of the programs you have that help people, veterans and non-vets, to achieve their dreams and goals in business? I wasn’t in Special Forces… but I was an officer in the Cavalry. So I’m familiar with the “Pathfinder” symbology in your course that goes by that name. In the few minutes we have left, tell us about your non-profit and how you help vets.. Joe, this is all so interesting. How can we get more information on your programs and services? If someone wanted to reach out to you and ask a question or possibly to do an interview such as this, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below. Folks, Joe O’Connor and his team have put together THE PERFECT PROGRAM to help YOU achieve YOUR dreams. Amen!  If you are veteran – you do not want to pass this by. You need to check this program out. It could be the answer you have been searching for. The Veterans Success Club is your ultimate resource for elevating your business and personal achievement to new heights! These programs are aimed at military veterans and business owners, as I said before. Drop down into the show notes and click the link right there. By joining the Veteran Success Club, you can unlock a world of possibilities for your business and your personal success. Together, with Joe guiding you, you can now write the...
From Genesis to Revelation  Michael McPadden pt 2 If you are like me, when I first started reading the Bible, I flipped it open to Genesis Chapter 1 and started from there. That’s how we were taught to read, right? From front to back. If you are like me, I made it through the first couple of books of the Bible and soon was “lost.” And when I got to Numbers… I was completely confused. When I finally made it to the New Testament, it seemed to make a little bit more sense… but still, it seemed like a bunch of things that were just tossed together, mixed up and then piecemealed into a book. I get that. It was a few years before I realized I was reading the Bible the wrong way.  Maybe that is where you are now, today. Or you have come to that realization as well. Our guest today is the author of a great book that will help us to study the Bible, understand more as we read the Bible and actually LEARN from the Bible. Amen! Michael McPadden is the author of "Genesis to Revelation: Abraham's Promise Finding Christ and Seeing God.” In his groundbreaking book, Michael invites us to embark on a journey through the Bible, unraveling its rich tapestry of stories to reveal the timeless truths about our existence—from our birth into perfection to our eventual resurrection into divine freedom. Through Genesis to Revelation, he sheds light on how the Bible actually flows together and reveals the Truth of our Lord and how we start our life, as babies, perfect… then lose our perfection, but – in the end, gain it back by the Grace of God and the shed blood of our Savior, Jesus the Messiah. Amen! This is a great book and a great interview. Join us as we conclude our discussion, with Michael McPadden! Your book emphasizes the interconnectedness of Old and New Testament teachings. Can you provide one or two examples of how stories or themes from the Old Testament foreshadow or complement the teachings of Jesus and Paul? The book of Revelation is often seen as cryptic and difficult to interpret. How does your book shed light on its significance in understanding the culmination of humanity's spiritual journey, from birth to resurrection? What is the main thing you want your readers to understand or appreciate about the Bible’s relevance to their own lives and spiritual journeys as they read your book? On predestination, why does bad things happen to good people? Are they predestined to not live a good life? How can someone obtain a copy of your book, "Genesis to Revelation: Abraham's Promise Finding Christ and Seeing God.”  I take it is on Amazon? If someone wanted to ask a question or find out more information or possibly do an interview such as this, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below. Folks, as I stated in the opening, when I first started reading the Bible, I was as confused as I could be. I wish there would have been a book like Michael McPadden’s “Genesis to Revelation” back then. It would have made my Bible study time a lot more enjoyable and informative and probably sped...

Amen! Help me welcome to the program, Michael McPadden!  Michael, it is a blessing to have you join us today! I do appreciate your time. First question I always start with is this. Other than that brief information I just provided, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Michael McPadden?” I love how you have laid your work out in this book. Basically as a narrative of human life from birth to spiritual resurrection. How did you come to interpret the Bible in this unique way? How love how you show Jesus and Paul as central figures in reconnecting humanity with its lost divinity. Can you elaborate on their roles in this process and how their teachings guide us along the path of spiritual awakening? Explain to us what you mean by “Paul’s Awakening?” Folks, as I stated in the opening, when I first started reading the Bible, I was as confused as I could be. I wish there would have been a book like Michael McPadden’s “Genesis to Revelation” back then. It would have made my Bible study time a lot more enjoyable and informative and probably sped my spiritual journey along at a little faster pace. Amen! Get your copy of this great book, “From Genesis to Revelation” as Michael McPadden takes you on a journey through the ages, weaving together the narratives of the Old and New Testaments to reveal the timeless promise of Abraham, the significance of Christ, and the omnipresence of God throughout the Bible. With meticulous research and spiritual depth, Michael reveals connections that illuminate the path of faith for believers of all backgrounds. Just drop down into the show notes...

A Man Like You and Me Paul Joel pt 2 Are you ready to understand Love on a deeper level? Do you have a desire to understand what True Love really means? Jesus shared this understanding of love through storytelling. He used parables in his sermons to convey true, real world scenarios and how God’s Love can transcend all the devil puts in your path. In keeping with that kind of storytelling passion, our guest today has written a Love Story that that conveys the deep meaning of God’s Love while at the same time, making real to the readers. Making it real to us. Making it real is what makes it, well “real!” Amen! Paul Joel is board certified Pulmonary and Internal Medicine physician in New York.  He had his career, his wife, his faith. Born again in 1982, all was going well with his life, until March of 2019. He was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Encephalitis. With most of his long term memory wiped away – and all of his short term memory gone as well, Paul was not the man he used to be. Two years of chemotherapy, steroids, etc. Nothing worked. So he stopped all the treatment. MRI scans showed most of his brain had been destroyed. There was nothing anyone could do. Then, one year after stopping treatments, in April of 2022, his memory came back. A new MRI indicated nothing had changed. He wasn’t supposed to have ANY memory!  But yet, he did! Paul Joel is a living testimony to the miracle working power of God. Amen! Now an author, Paul Joel published his book, “A Man Like You and Me:  A Supernatural Adventure Story.” This book is about the interplay between fate – and free will. The book is to show the purpose of miracles and to get people to read their Bible. Amen! This is part two - and the conclusion of a GREAT interview! Tell us about your book, “A Man Like You and Me.”  Why did you write this book and why publish it now? You and your wife are the characters in the book, correct?  How hard was it for you to write yourself into the story? You share your wife is the hero in the story. How so? Tell us about the part where the lady with the blonde hair opened the door for you?  Was that your wife? Share with us your belief about the connection between the Jews that held out at Masada and the three year interval period in the Catholic Mass schedule?  How are they connected? I could not help but notice there was picture on your website of “Bonnie and Clyde.” Why do you have that picture on the website about your book? Paul, this has been so interesting. How can someone obtain a copy of your book? Is it on Amazon? If someone has a question our would like to receive more information, or maybe do an interview such as this – how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below. Folks, I love true stories. I especially love true stories that relate to miracle working, lifesaving power of the Gospel and Jesus Christ. Amen! I urge you to drop down into the show notes below and reach out to Paul Joel.

Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Paul Joel?” You had a career as a physician.  But all of that came crashing down. First, tell us what Hashimoto’s Encephalitis is and how it affects the body… Were there any symptoms that alerted you that something was not right? What did the experts say about your disease?” I know many times, if you are in the same profession as someone you are counseling or treating, you can be more, let’s just say, “candid” with the person because they know what is happening. Is that how they treated and talked to you? Who was taking care of you during that time and do you have any memories of that time at all? In the intro, I read that your memory returned, I believe it was on April 29, 2022. Did you just “wake up” so to speak? Or did it return gradually…?  What happened that make you realize something had changed? Folks, I love true stories. I especially love true stories that relate to miracle working, lifesaving power of the Gospel and Jesus Christ. Amen! I urge you to drop down into the show notes below and reach out to Paul Joel. Ask your questions, etc. But be sure to click the link there so you can order a copy of his great book, “A Man Like You and Me: A Supernatural Adventure Story.”  You might want to order two or three and share them as gifts. Amen!  Buy one for your pastor – I know he’d appreciate it. Amen! CONTACT INFORMATION:
Letters from Elizabeth Carrie Pierce Have you ever experienced a sudden life change that involved losing someone you love? I know many people who have been married for 30, 40, 45 years and then, one of them passes away. That can be a lonely, very lonely road for the surviving spouse to travel. Our guest today has cofounded a publishing house that caters to authors who want to know their conservative or traditional values will not be censored or changed. Morgan Pierce Media and Publishing Company, in addition to catering to authors of children’s book with wholesome stories that everyone can enjoy – also has a very special subscription newsletter service. It is called, “Letters from Elizabeth.” These letters are sent out to subscribers every two weeks,  to women over the age of 50, who suddenly find themselves alone.  These letters are full of stories, insights, tips and recommendations for special products and also have thought provoking quotes, quips and a good recipe every now and then. Amen! This sounds like the perfect gift for someone whom you may know that is lonely right now…suffering right now… needing something like this – right now. Amen! Help me welcome to the program, Carrie Pierce, co-director of Morgan Pierce Media and Publishing Company. She is also an author herself, having published the children’s book “Abby Apple Tree” and others. Carrie, it is such a blessing to have you on the program today! I love what you’re doing here… but before we get into that, let’s start with this question first. Other than that brief information, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Carrie Pierce?” You have been writing for over 20 years. How and why did you get started doing what you do now with Morgan Pierce? What kind of services does your publishing company offer? What kind of authors do you serve? Both men and women? I want to jump into this letter service, “Letters from Elizabeth.”  Explain the reasoning why you started this subscription service and who does it serve? I briefly went over some of the content in the letters during the introduction. Can you share more? If someone reaches out to you, wanting to subscribe to “Letters from Elizabeth,” Is there a vetting process…?  How do you vet them to make sure of their age, etc.? I read some of the great testimonies you received. Can you give us an overview of what most of them have to say? Your publishing company boldly declares that you do not edit or suppress conservative or traditional views. Why do you believe that is important to share with those coming to visit your website? What is the typical author demographic that wants to work with a...
Increase Your Influence Trudy Beerman In today’s society, money is often the focus of, well – everything!  Even if you do not want to focus on money – the fact you are trying NOT to focus on money has you focused on money! Amen!  Don’t shout me down when I’m preaching good. Our guest today helps people to shift their focus from money (which has become their god) to becoming focused on THE GOD who gives them the money! Amen! Money is not “the root of all evil” as some claim.  But scripture is very specific in 1 Timothy 6:10 that says, “THE LOVE of money is the root of all evil.”  The key is to “root out the evil” and then all your left with is the money! Amen!  Then you can do what God has called you do with that money. Praise God! Trudy Beerman is our guest today. Trudy was on way, way back in 2018.  Episode number 216 I believe. That was almost 1250 episodes ago!  Amen! Trudy is a TV producer, radio show host and best-selling author with many financial industry credentials to her credit. She is a Christian Stewardship Strategist who helps move Christian business owners from places of worrying about money to a place where they can #BeMore #HaveMore and #GiveMore. Amen!  She also served as a Dave Ramsey table leader at her church and was a former member of “Kingdom Advisors.” Does that sound like a place YOU would like to be? I know it does me! Amen! Help me welcome – BACK – to the program, Trudy Beerman! Trudy – it has been a few years. It’s hard to believe it has been almost six years since we last talked. Amen! So, to catch us up on what you have been doing, let me start by asking you this question first. Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Trudy Beerman?” Can you share with us how you became involved in the “Biblical Prosperity” type of business? I have heard that you are sometimes mentioned in the same circles with Dave Ramsey, etc. But you operate in a little different area than Dave Ramsey’s organization, correct? Your brand is called “REACHology.”  What does that phrase mean? In your opinion, is it better to be a big fish in a small pond? Or should we try to jump to a bigger pond where there are bigger fish? You are a doctoral candidate at Liberty University and you are study “influential reach.” This is what we were just talking about. How are you applying this to doctrinal studies? How are you able to help the average person increase their reach with your REACHology program? You also have your own television channel called “Profitable Stewardship, Inc.,” or PSI for short. Tell us a bit about using PSI-TV to increase our influential reach… You share that if you can do YouTube, you can do TV.  Don’t we need to have fancy cameras and light sets to do television? I do love the part where you shared before that God inspired you to use your talent and invest it in helping others. And when you wondered if anyone would even listen to you, as there are other people out there who also specialize in helping increase influence, etc. Can you share what God downloaded to you that moved you off the needle and into what you do now? As we get ready to close, I do
Understanding the Shadows of Time John Newton Have you ever gone to the movie theatre to watch a movie and it seemed like you already knew what was going to happen? As if you has seen this movie before? Or perhaps you are traveling and on a sight-seeing trip you give directions to where you are headed, even though you have never visited this area before? Have you ever watched a movie and you could see some aspects that “seem” to reflect Biblical events or themes, but, it did not seem “just right” in some way? Well, our guest today is making a difference by taking on subject matter like I just shared – and so much more! Praise God! John Newton is our guest today. He is an author, an electrical engineer, robotics programmer, part-time farmer and is the father of seven. Amen.  He is the host of an amazing YouTube Channel, John Newton Scifi.  His tag line is “Bringing the past to life and the future into focus.”  Amen! His first book is titled, “The Healing Stone” and is book number one in what will be called “The Shadows of Time Series.”  This is a Christian SciFi novel series. Amen! Help me welcome to the program, John Newton!  John, thank you for taking the time to join us today! First question I always start with is this… other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is John Newton?” Where do you get the ideas for your stories?  I mean, to think up some of this stuff seems like the hard part, right? Your YouTube channel discusses modern movies, etc. and relates Biblical stories to the movie? You state the goal of your channel is how to use the themes in movies and shows – and books – to help spread the gospel message. How do you accomplish that? I know many of my friends will go a watch a movie or series of something that would have a Biblical inference to it… I won’t say a Biblical reference, but an “inference.”  Then, when consider it and watch it, I’m blown away by subtle, but obvious, inferences. You have taken that to the next level by actually creating a YouTube Channel that discusses this subject! What led you to begin dissecting these movies looking for these kinds of inferences? I saw something on your website when I was doing my prep for this interview and thought it was interesting… In Jurassic Park, they discussed the “Butterfly Effect.”  So I think we are familiar with the concept.  But you discuss a few different versions of this and call them Paradoxes. Can you explain the three paradoxes for our listeners? Explain for us the paradox used in the movie “Back to the Future.” I loved that movie series… I read the post you titled, “How to Time Travel and Not Kill Your Grandfather.”  I think that concept explains this idea quite well. Can you briefly go over those ideas with us? How does all of this come back to what you do with your YouTube videos and tie it all into Jesus and...
The Heart Healer: AFTER PTSD Cyndy Bartelli pt 8 There are so many people in the world today that are hurting. Hurting in different ways, but hurting in their hearts that affect everything else. Not heart aches, but actual, hurting hearts. Pain that is deep rooted and affects them each and every day. What can be done for folks that are hurting like this? Well, that is where our guest today comes in… Cyndy Bartelli is our guest today. She was on before, you can listen to our previous interviews in our archives. She is also the author of a great book – “The Heart Healer: God’s Response to Personal Prayer in a Hurting World,” and her study guide – “The Heart Healer Study Guide,” Amen! But today, she is back for part eight of this series, Amen!  There are so many hurting people, many listening to us right now, that will benefit from hearing real life examples the Cyndy is doing to bring “heart healing” to people in her daily walk. Amen! Cyndy is here to minister to you with some examples of people who were in situations that may be similar to yours, maybe not exactly the same – but all of the examples are of people who are hurting. Amen. Be sure to stay and listen to the end, as she has a free gift for you today. Help me welcome back to the program, Cyndy Bartelli. Cyndy, thank you agreeing to come back on and minister to those again today who are hurting. I appreciate your time. For those who may not have listened to our prior interviews, can you briefly share with us “Who is Cyndy Bartelli?” And give us a basic introduction about your book, “Heart Healer.” We have been sharing some background and information on several of the people that you have helped along the way. Last time we talked about heart healing as it relates to PTSD. But today, I believe we are discussing “How to Make Things Right After PTSD,” as it relates to  heart healing, correct? Of course, PTSD is something that a lot of military veterans are suffering from, but it does not just apply to veterans, does it? Last time you shared how heart healing can, well, “heal” PTSD.  But a lot of people that suffer with or suffered with PTSD, may have hurt a lot of those they are close to along the way. Is that what you are referring to as “making things right after PTSD?” This involves more than just saying “I’m sorry.” Correct? Would it help if they became involved in helping others to receive “heart healing” or just simply helping others – who suffer with PTSD? I know there are people listening to us right now that may be in the same or very similar situation as we have shared today. And I definitely know there someone listening to us right now that needs heart healing, whether about PTSD or something else. Can you pray with and for them right now and help to bring “heart healing” to them just like you have for the others we have talked about in prior episodes? Before we go, I want you to share with us about your ministry, “Vertical Hearts” and how this ministry is helping you to spread the message of God’s extraordinary Love and ability to heal the broken places in people’s hearts…can you share a little bit for us? How can they support Vertical Hearts and your outreach? Tell us about the free gift you have for our listeners today. I appreciate you sharing that. I also appreciate you sharing the information you shared with us today about PTSD as well. If someone wanted to purchase your book, “The Heart Healer: God’s Response to Personal...
What in the World is Happening Now Tom Donnan pt 2 Tom Donnan is back with us today as we discuss Bible prophecy in relation to current events – and do we have some current events happening right now that definitely relate to Bible Prophecy. Amen! This is Part two of a great conversation with Tom Donnan. Miami Mall video was examined and computer analysis showed the “10 foot tall creature walking in front of the mall” to simply be 3 people walking side by side, filmed from a distance. City wide alert generated a huge police response.  Here is the video from a newscast which debunked it as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFEWkNdtR4w Now, you have shared a video from Pastor John Kilpatrick talked about the emergence of UFO’s and aliens months ago in the message “What if?”  And this is dealing with the increase in alien appearances. You and I have talked about how the coming announcement will be something to the effect of “We are who you call God,” or something to that effect, right? And how, after the Rapture, these beings will say they “Got rid of the doubters,” or something to that effect… "WHAT IF...?" It's Coming and Be Prepared! | A Prophetic End-Times Message from John Kilpatrick - YouTube Are we placing too much metal in space? Starts at the 6 minutes mark. Is it too late? Did man finally go TOO far! What NOW? - YouTube You see Mass Layoffs coming across America in the near future, don’t you? Why is that? Aggressive Layoffs Coming By March, Economy On Last Legs | Danielle DiMartino Booth with David Lin - YouTube You have noticed some things beginning to happen just in the last week or so, basically the last week of January.  Can you share what it is you mean by a “Spiritual Change?” Since 1-1-24 there has been a spiritual change. People experiencing demonic attacks has increased. There are those who have thrown open the door to the occult with little to no consequences. But that has change. I received calls from Wyoming, Louisiana and Texas about evil issues. Since 1-1-24 There has been an increase of Godly activity. Conversations with people experiencing God in new and wonderful ways without understanding what is happening to them and what it means. This is happening repeatedly in England I had a chat with a woman from Florida. She was seeing God move through her intercession and she was experiencing the Holy Spirit. However, we chatted over two hours, she was believing things that were outside of Scripture. I invested into her helping to get her aligned with the word of God to gain maximum flow of the Holy Spirit. Tom, we are about out of time. I’d like you to pray with someone right now who may be listening to this and realize, “They need Jesus.” Could you do that right now? Tom, this has been so interesting. How can someone reach out to you to ask a question or get more information? I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below. Folks, our discussion today was not to instill fear – but Faith. Faith in the Name of Jesus. Faith in the Bible. Faith in Biblical Prophecy. Faith that NONE OF THIS is happening by happenstance. None of this is taking God by surprise. But ALL OF THIS is leading to what are called, “The End Times.” If you prayed that prayer with Tom Donnan, reach out and let him know. Go to church. Walk by Faith and not by sight. Don’t be moved by what you see
What in the World is Happening Now Tom Donnan pt 1 Tom Donnan is back with us today as we discuss Bible prophecy in relation to current events – and do we have some current events happening right now that definitely relate to Bible Prophecy. Amen! Lab Grown Brain Connected to a Microchip Recognized Human Voices Let’s talk about Neuromorphic Engineering.  Where one company, “Brain Chip” is actually commercially selling brain tissue that is connected to a computer chip.  I have to ask, how did this get on your radar?  What motivated you to research brain tissue computer chips? - Brian tissue connect computer architecture. It is connected with input and output signals. - connected to a supercomputer preform 200 trillion functions per second. - computer needs a lot of energy to operate; human minds require low energy and preform for decades. - Brainowave, and high density computer electrode. - it begins to identify human voices - turning into a brain chip. Lab Grown Brain Connected to a Microchip Recognized Human Voices (youtube.com) You also have an update for us about the “Red Heffers” that are, right now, in Israel, correct? Red Heffer Update:  2024 - The Red Heifer Sacrifice (youtube.com) This lines up with a lot of things happening in Israel right now. And the United Nations is organizing a coalition of countries condemning Israel for their continued response to the attacks on October 7th.  Which goes right along with what the Bible says will happen… Israel is alone in the world. We can even see the United States starting to waiver in our support of Israel – at least at the government level. Not good… not good at all. Did you see the uptick in “jellyfish UFO’s being spotted?”   Tom has done some research and there are some VFX artists that were able to debunk this video and some other videos people have been posting. The link to the video is below:  https://youtu.be/hRFSXWDmBYM?si=rbK7ljnscxCUGmAK Folks, our discussion today was not to instill fear – but Faith. Faith in the Name of Jesus. Faith in the Bible.

A Brand in Your Hand Glenn Rudin If you are in business, or you have a podcast, etc. – you are establishing your brand. This brand is what distinguishes you from others out in the world. If I mention the word, “COKE” – what comes to mind. For the majority of you, probably the soda drink, “Coca-Cola.” But what if nobody knew what that was? I remember, when I first joined the Army. I was stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas for basic training. We finally earned our first 2 hour pass. I headed to the snack bar to have some of that GOOD FOOD that I had missed the past month or so. I went to the counter and asked for “A pop of coke.” The lady looked at me as if I was speaking French. She said, “What do you want?” I said “A pop, please.” She said, “What’s that?” I said, “A coke. A drink?” She then said, “OH, you want a soda?” You see, in Michigan, it’s called “pop.” Down south, it’s called “soda.” There are some that may have thought of “cocaine” when I said “coke.” But the majority, I hope, though of Coca-Cola. Did you imagine the red and white can? Or the slender bottle? Or the dark drink with bubbles and the glass sweating a little bit because its cold? That is all branding. What is YOUR BRAND? That is what our guest will be sharing with us today. All about branding. That is what will stand out in your customers minds when they hear your name or the name of your company. Amen. Glenn Rudin is known as the “Message Master.” He helps folks just like you and me to find clarity in their business. He has been working in the Branding and Messaging industry for more than 40 years, helping businesses to define “clear value” of their company, their brand and products and then communicate that to their customers. Amen! He is also a keynote speaker and the author of a great book, “A Brand in Your Hand.” This is the world’s FIRST fully rhyming, full color book on branding! Amen! Help me welcome to the program, Glenn Rudin. Glen, it is a blessing to have you join us today! First, let me start with this question. Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Glenn Rudin?” How did you get started in this “Branding Business Strategy?” Now, I want to read something here from your book, just to give our audience a tease: “A key part of your business will be your brand… It’s something important, you must understand… On the following pages, I will provide… A clear, comprehensive brand-building guide… A brand is a way to make a business stand out… It makes it more noticeable and give it more clout… When your brandings on point, it adds to its mystique… This makes us feel like it’s special and unique… Your brand will remind us of what you’re about… It creates a strong message and leaves little doubt… It’s what we will think about you, when you’re not around… When done really well, it should be quite profound… Let me ask you… WHY rhyme? You also have a coaching class. It’s called, “Message Master Academy.” Tell us a little bit about that? It’s a weekly class. Do you go over just one of these aspects each week, so it’s a cumulative effect? Or do you do a basic overview of them all? Just share a little about they can expect? So there is no cost for this class? At least right now? If you could offer one piece of advice on branding to someone who is listening right now, what would that be? I’ll offer one here as well… You need to sign up for Glenn’s class. Amen! Glenn, this has been so interesting. If someone wanted more information or wanted to ask you a question – or maybe do an interview such as this, how can they get in touch with you? Your...
Thy Kingdom Come Cedric SydnorIf you are a believer, you have to know that we are living in the “last of the last days” right now. Even unbelievers are sensing “something” is about to happen. They just don’t know what. For believers, although this situation is an answer to our prayers, there is still some anxiety over loved ones and friends that may not have given their hearts to the Lord or may just outright reject any discussion of salvation, eternity, etc.What will happen to them?What about our pets? Will they be with us in Heaven?What about “second chances?”What about those who have never heard the Gospel yet?What about… well, the list could go on and on.Tim LeHaye and Jerry Jenkins released a book (that was turned into a movie) titled, “Left Behind.” It shook the world with what life would be like after the Rapture. It is still a best seller on Amazon. Amen!Our guest today has written a book titled, “Thy Kingdom Come.” It was inspired by “The Left Behind Series,” but covers a few other elements of concern along the way. Cedric Sydnor is the author and he is our guest today. Help me welcome to the program, Cedric Sydnor!Cedric, I appreciate you taking the time to join us today!First question I always start with is this. Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Cydric Sydnor?”You are fan of the “Left Behind Series.” But what motivated you to write your own series on the topic of the “Rapture?”You address some topics that were left out of the “Left Behind Series.” I outlined a couple of them in my introduction.  But you say this book focuses on the “individuality” of those left behind. What do you mean by that?Let’s take on the subject of “pets.”  What has your research found concerning “pets going to Heaven?”What about women who are pregnant when the Rapture occurs? The babies are not yet “born” into the earth?How about people that have not heard the Gospel as of the time of the Rapture?You also discuss the Catholic Church in your book. What about the Catholic Church?Is it possible for those left behind to realize the mistake they made and be given, for lack of a better phrase, a “second chance?”Your book is about to be released, probably just before this episode is published…Do you have a website or anyplace where we can find more information on your book?What would you like to share with our audience that we have not yet covered?“With a Soveriegn God there is no science fiction.If someone has a question or would like to receive more information, or possibly to do an interview such as this… how can they do that?  How can someone get in touch with you?I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below.Folks, the “soon return of Jesus” is real. You would have to be living under a rock right now if you don’t see all of the events happening around us are building to one, climatic event. Amen!And even Jesus said, “The very rocks will cry out!” Praise God.Drop down into the show notes and reach out to Cedric Sydnor right now. Stay up to date with his book and be sure to order it as soon as it comes out. He will let me know and I’ll send out a blast as well.

I appreciate you joining us today.First question I always start with is this. Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Donald Galade?”You’re in the financial services industry. You’ve been doing this since 1987. That’s about the time I was getting involved in the industry as well. I was selling life insurance to the military at the time. That was the market I was familiar with due to my military service. I did pretty good. But I missed my military comradery and became a police officer as it was set up along the same way. But, I said all that because I know how difficult it can be at times. So my hat is off to you brother for making your business so successful. I love it. And the work you do to help Christian investors is needful and beneficial. I know from, know from first-hand knowledge, that there are a lot of scammers out there that are pushing people into bad investment vehicles and things. So I just appreciate you working it from the Christian point of view. Thank you for what you do. Let’s start with your latest book, “Awoken: Conspiracy or Theory.” Why did you write this book and why publish it now?You talk about an elite group that is asserting dominance over almost every aspect of our lives. I have heard bits and pieces of some of the things you discuss, but you’ve put it all together, like a reference book. Share with us some of the facts you’ve discovered and included in this book…You share that there is a New World Order that requires the participation of every world leader, including US Presidents. And this has been going on since 1900?What if the President says “no?”  You share that what we are witnessing right now, building in the Middle East, is the foundation of WW3. Can you explain why that is important to the End Times?Your book reviews on Amazon are off the charts. This is a hot topic, for sure, right now. Especially as we are coming up on the 2024 election.Don, this is so interesting. I love this book. I just got it a few days ago and it’s almost finished. It’s just awesome. You definitely are hitting on all the hot topics, that’s for sure. How can someone...
The Old Testament and Jesus Mark StoufferWhile arguing with Jewish authorities and religious leaders, Jesus told them, “You search the Scriptures and believe that in them, you have eternal life. But it are these scriptures that bear witness of ME.” That is in John 5:39.That is True… many people have read the Bible. Some many times. I pray the Word has done its work in converting their hearts. Amen!  But some still have questions. Many people today that have questions are actually Jewish people who are “waiting for the Messiah.” How can we show them that Jesus already came the first time – and is about to come for a second time?How can we reach these Jewish people that are searching the scriptures of the Old Testament, looking for answers?Our guest today is helping that process. Amen!Mark Stouffer is a Christian author who has done a deep dive on the what is known as the “Tanakh” – which are the first five books of the Bible, written by Moses. They are “Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. These five book are sacred to the Jewish Faith. But yet, Jesus told them, “They talk about ME.”He is writing a series of books, with the first book now published. It’s titled, “Hesed: Does the Tankh Foreshadow Jesus?”  This is a great book and we will discussing it today. Amen!Help me welcome to the program, Mark Stouffer!  Mark, I appreciate you joining us today!First question I always start with is this. Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Mark Stouffer?”Your first book is “Hesed: Does the Tanakh Foreshadow Jesus?” It is written for Jewish people that want to know the Truth about Jesus – and for Christians who want to learn about the Tanakh, or Old Testament. Why did you write this book and why publish it now?One thing you bring out in your book is the issue of “moral guilt is not decisively resolved.” Can you share what you mean by that?I know we don’t have time to go into a lot of details. But one thing I want you to bring out is some of the ways in which some Biblical heroes suffered just like Jesus did. Or we could say it another way, how Jesus suffered just like some of the prophets of old (since they came first). Can you share just a little bit of those similarities with us?This is going to be a series of books. Is that right?Explain the series for us…What do you see God doing in the world today that is getting everything ready for the return of Jesus?I believe that every believer alive today has a purpose for being born in this day – and this time – which God wants them to accomplish. What are your thoughts on this?Mark, this is so interesting. How can someone order a copy of your book, “Hesed: Does the Tanakh Foreshadow Jesus?”When do you anticipate book two to be released?  (March 2024)If someone has a question or would like to get in contact with you for some additional information – or perhaps to do an interview such as this… how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you?I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below.Folks, this book, “Hesed: Does the Tanakh Foreshadow Jesus?” is going to be a great resource for you to have in your library.
