An Evangelical Answers the Left's Question: How Can Followers of Jesus Support Donald Trump?
Author Stephen Strang says it's hypocrisy that mainstream media on the left
skewers Donald Trump's Evangelical supporters, asking the question, 'How can
believers in Jesus Christ support a man known for his philandering?' Strang,
who's also the founder of Charisma Media, says, "Did we hold Lyndon Baines
Johnson or John Kennedy or Bill Clinton or a bunch of other people up to that
high standard? I don't think so." On this episode of Lighthouse Faith, Strang,
who's the author of "God And Donald Trump", and "Trump Aftershock: The
President’s Seismic Impact On Faith And Culture", talks about Trump's legal
woes, now that he's a convicted felon thanks to New York's District Attorney, and
why Evangelicals still support him. He points out that when Trump was a New
York billionaire Playboy, part of the social scene, attending Chelsea Clinton's
wedding, for instance, he was the darling of the press. But when he got serious
about life, protecting America's borders, joining the Republican Party, and
getting serious about his faith, that's when the media turned on him. Strang is
worried that many of the new Evangelicals are engaged in hero worship of
Trump, but he says most of Trump's supporters are silent, wanting only the right
choice for their communities and the country.

Should Christians Celebrate Pride Month? Ryan Bomberger and Doug Pagitt Debate
The cultural clash over the LGBTQ community has spilled over into the Christian Church. One blaring example now is the schism in the United Methodist Church. But on a personal level, Christians are asking and voicing their opinions over Pride Month, which celebrates the gay community. It forces Christians to deal with one blaring question, "Is homosexuality consistent with Christianity?" Is it a sin, and part of human brokenness, or is it not a sin, and something that should be praised and honored? On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, two Christians offer their opinions. Ryan Bomberger, author and co-founder of the Radiance Foundation, and Doug Pagitt, an author and pastor who's been leading the conversation on progressive Christianity through Vote Common Good. It's not often people of faith talk to each other in a reasoned and respectful way about this culturally divisive issue. But for people who are followers of Jesus Christ, it is essential, if there ever could be a realization of John 17, "May they all be one."

Duck Dynasty's Willie Robertson Is Living Out The Great Commission, One Conversation at a Time
Willie Robertson is all about having a conversation... about Jesus. Robertson is a member of the famous Duck Dynasty clan whose reality show became one of the most popular ever. It was a program that might never have been until producers promised patriarch, Phil Robertson, they could talk openly about their faith in Jesus Christ. The show became known for the family's prayers at mealtime. Now Willie, Phil's son, has a new book out called "The Gospeler: Turning Darkness Into Light One Conversation At A Time." On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Robertson explains how believers in Jesus can live out The Great Commission (of spreading the Gospel) in everyday life situations. His own father's life was turned around after a preacher sought him out while in a bar.

What It Takes to Transform a Wedding Into a Good Marriage: Fr. Nicholas Louh and Dr. Roxanne Louh
You can always tell how important something is by the priority placed on
it. In Genesis, the very first chapter of the first book of the Bible, God
establishes a family, Adam and Eve. The very first thing God does in the New
Testament is the merging of family between Mary and Joseph in the birth of
Christ. And the very first miracle Jesus performs is at a wedding, the wedding
at Cana. It is now officially wedding season, in the month of June more
weddings will take place than at any other time of the year. But how do you
ensure that a beautiful wedding with all the pomp and pageantry creates a
strong marriage, where husband and wife move forward joyfully in whole-life
oneness? Enter Fr. Nicholas Louh and Dr. Roxanne Louh. Fr. Nick is a Greek
Orthodox Priest who's presided over the nuptials of scores of couples. His wife
Dr. Roxanne Louh is a clinical psychologist and family therapist who sees many
of those couples after the luster has worn off the glitz of the wedding and a
life of children, careers and financial strains complicated their "happily
ever after". On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, the Louhs talk
about how to overcome difficulties in marriage, even some of the
worst things that could happen, like an adulterous affair. But more
importantly, how God's design for marriage is the key to a strong marriage, one
that truly is, "for better or for worse."

A Young Jewish Women Tells Her Story of Surviving October 7th
Eden Gefner was born and raised in Kibbutz Reim in Israel, just three miles from the border with Gaza. On October 7th, her life changed from being a normal 28-year-old thinking about her future, to believing she was now in the Holocaust, that she and her family would die, just for being Jews. But instead, she and her mother, father, and boyfriend narrowly survived the Hamas attack. Hiding in the safe room and holding tight to the door, they heard automatic gunfire break the front door, a terrorist searching their home and finally, a tug on the door. Eden says it was a miracle they survived when so much death surrounded them. On their community "WhatsApp" chain a neighbor is yelling to help two children who just saw their father gunned down in front of them, others are giving updates on how many Hamas terrorists are surrounding the Kibbutz. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, we travel to East Hampton, New York to interview Eden just before she told her story of survival to a small group at Chabad of the Hamptons. It's part of the Faces of October 7th Project, which aims to "humanize the consequences of terrorism and challenge the support that terrorist organizations like Hamas have garnered, particularly among young people."

Author John Burke: Near Death Experiences Have Two Strong Commonalities, Light and a Love Beyond Comprehension
Imagine all the love you've experienced in your entire life, from parents, spouses, friends, family, and then multiply it a thousand times. That's the kind of love experienced by people who've had Near Death Experiences; they report being in the presence of God. NDE's, as they are known, are scientifically recognized phenomenon that occur when people are clinically dead and see visions of themselves, their bodies as paramedics try to revive them, doctors as they operate, or even family members in waiting rooms. Some even describe scenes they couldn't possibly have seen except supernaturally. But the one commonality: a love that is so deep and so complete they never want to return to their lives. It's the love they, and probably all of us, are searching for. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, John Burke, best-selling author of "Imagine Heaven" and now his follow-up "Imagine the God of Heaven," explains that millions of people from all different faith traditions, cultures, and educational backgrounds have had NDE's. But the vast majority report similar events, a welcoming benevolent Light and a Love that penetrates the deepest recesses of their souls. Burke says the only explanation is, it's evidence of not only the reality of God, but also God's relentless love. As the Scriptures say, "A love that surpasses all understanding."
