    This Will Transform Your Prayer Life | Episode 16 with Chris Garcia

    What if the reason you don’t hear God… is because you never stop talking? In this powerful conversation between Daniel Kolenda and Chris Garcia (Father's Glory International), they unpack one of the most overlooked keys to intimacy with God: stillness. In a world full of noise, notifications, and constant stimulation, many believers struggle to pray, not because they don’t care, but because they’ve never learned how to be still. This episode will challenge your mindset, break religious striving, and invite you into a deeper, more real relationship with God.

    How Do You Get CLOSER to the Holy Spirit? | Episode 14 with David Diga Hernandez

    David Diga Hernandez joins the podcast for a raw and powerful conversation about the Holy Spirit, generational oppression, healing miracles, critics, and revival. David shares how his great-great grandfather was a warlock in Mexico, and how fear, anxiety, and spiritual torment marked his childhood. At just 11 years old, desperate and overwhelmed, he locked himself in a room and gave God an ultimatum.

    What is the biblical role of women in the Church and why has it become one of the most divisive issues in modern Christianity?

    An Iranian Christian’s Plea to President Trump | Episode 12 with Kamran Yaraei

    We are standing at a pivotal moment in world history. As new negotiations between the United States and Iran emerge amid rising Middle East tensions, the stakes could not be higher. In this special episode of the Daniel Kolenda Podcast, Daniel is joined by Kamran Yaraei, who was born in Iran into a Muslim family and later encountered Jesus in a life-changing way. They sit down, along with Jim Whitley, to unpack what is really happening behind the headlines as Kamran shares firsthand insight from contacts inside Iran, where information is tightly controlled and internet access is nearly shut down. What he describes is not a political talking point, but a humanitarian crisis of a people crying out for freedom, protection, and hope. #Trump #Iran #DanielKolenda #Irancrisis #Irannews #Iranprotest #middleeast #KamranYaraei #JimWhitley #Persia #Biblicalprophecy #Christianity #prayingforiran #humanrights #Iranuprising, #faith #geopolitics 00:00 – A Critical Moment in World History 01:18 – Why Iran Is Back in the Global Spotlight 02:15 – Why This Conversation Matters Right Now 03:00 – Meet Kamran Yaraei: Born in Iran, Transformed by Christ 04:18 – Rising Tensions and the Threat of War 06:00 – The Spiritual and Biblical Significance of Iran (Persia) 12:15 – Why Information Is So Hard to Get Out of Iran 20:05 – This Is Personal 21:14 – Understanding Iran’s History and the Ayatollah Regime 25:27 – What the Media Isn’t Reporting 28:10 – Do Iranians Want America to Intervene? 28:40 – A Cry From the Iranian People (Powerful Video Message) 31:29 – “This Is Not Politics, This Is Survival” 34:22 – What’s Really Happening Behind the Negotiations 36:19 – Why Iran Is Not Iraq or Afghanistan 39:48 – What Makes This Moment Different? 41:50 – What Happens If Talks Fail? 45:47 – A Direct Message to President Trump 49:03 – What a Regime Collapse Could Mean for the Gospel 51:41 – How the Church Should Prepare 53:18 – How Should We Be Praying Right Now? 58:16 – Prayer for Iran 59:04 – Final Thoughts and What Comes Next Furious Book: https://cfan.org/furious Monthly Ministry Partner: https://cfan.org Ministry Training: https://cfan.org/training Subscribe to CfaN to receive our latest messages: Email: https://cfan.org/subscribe SMS: Text CFAN to 94090 To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world click here: https://cfan.org/donate Evangelist Daniel Kolenda YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/⁨@DanielKolenda⁩ Evangelist Daniel Kolenda Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/evangelistkolenda Evangelist Daniel Kolenda Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/evangelistdanielkolenda

    Why I Reject Calvinism | Episode 11 with Dr. Leighton Flowers

    Calvinism has become one of the most divisive and debated doctrines in the modern church. In this episode, Daniel sits down with Dr. Leighton Flowers, former Calvinist, theologian, and host of Soteriology 101, to confront the toughest questions head-on. They examine shocking claims like regeneration before faith, the morality of Romans 9, the problem of evil, and why some high-profile Christians have walked away from the faith altogether. Whether you’re Reformed, non-Calvinist, questioning, or just curious, this episode will push you to think carefully about what the Bible actually teaches and why it matters for real people. #DanielKolenda #LeightonFlowers #Calvinism #Soteriology101 #Regenerationbeforefaith #Romans9 #Predestination #freewillf #determinism #TULIPtheology #ReformedTheology Soteriology101: https://soteriology101.com Books by Dr. Leighton The Potter's Promise: A Biblical Defense of Traditional Soteriology: https://amazon.com/Potters-Promise-Biblical-Traditional-Soteriology/dp/0692561846/ God's Provision For All: A Defense of God's Goodness: https://amazon.com/Gods-Provision-All-Defense-Goodness/dp/1732896305/ Drawn By Jesus: https://amazon.com/Drawn-Jesus-Leighton-Flowers/dp/B0CYXB56PY/ Furious Book: https://cfan.org/furious Monthly Ministry Partner: https://cfan.org Ministry Training: https://cfan.org/training 00:45 – Welcome & Why Calvinism Matters 01:41 – Meet Dr. Leighton Flowers, Former Calvinist 05:21 – Accusations of Pelagianism Explained 15:52 – The Core Divide: Determinism 24:00 – Does Calvinism Undermine Evangelism? 28:12 – Altar Calls, Assurance & “Inoculating Against the Gospel” 31:13 – Regeneration Before Faith (Deep Dive) 32:29 – Can Calvinists Preach the Gospel Honestly? 39:21 – Same Vocabulary, Different Dictionary 44:18 – Aborted Babies, Innocence & Election 47:02 – Is Abortion a Loophole to Heaven? 50:35 – Mystery vs. Contradiction 55:02 – Ben Shapiro Confronts Calvinism 59:24 – Romans 9: The Ultimate Proof Text 01:10:13 – Why People Are Leaving Calvinism (and Christianity)? 01:17:20 – John 6 vs John 12: Who Is Drawn? 01:25:03 – TULIP Glasses & Prooftexting 01:34:57 – Acts 13:48 Reconsidered 01:40:08 – The Problem of Evil 01:44:23 – Sovereignty Reimagined 01:46:28 – Megan Phelps on Romans 9 (Joe Rogan) 01:53:25 – Final Reflections & Resources Subscribe to CfaN to receive our latest messages: Email: https://cfan.org/subscribe SMS: Text CFAN to 94090 To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world click here: https://cfan.org/donate Evangelist Daniel Kolenda YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/⁨@DanielKolenda⁩ Evangelist Daniel Kolenda Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/evangelistkolenda Evangelist Daniel Kolenda Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/evangelistdanielkolenda
