    Megachurch Pastor Reacts to Tucker Carlson on Trump, Iran, and Islam | Live Free with Josh Howerton

    In this LIVE FREE bonus episode, Pastor Josh Howerton reacts to a viral Tucker Carlson clip addressing President Donald Trump, Islam, and Christianity—and it opens up a much bigger conversation than politics. This episode dives into how Christians should think biblically in a culture full of noise, strong opinions, and spiritual confusion. What happens when faith, politics, and culture collide? Should Christians mock other religions? And how do you stay grounded when influential voices start blurring truth? More than a reaction, this is a call to discernment—learning to use the Bible as both a mirror (to examine yourself) and a lens (to interpret the world). In this episode, you’ll learn: How to think biblically about culture, politics, and viral moments The difference between being a “Christian who’s conservative” vs. a “conservative who’s Christian” What the Bible actually says about mocking false religion Why not all “faith” is equal—and why the object of your faith matters How to evaluate influential voices without being deceived Stand firm.

    Jesus Is Coming Back SOON... But Most Christians Aren't Ready. (ft. John Bevere) | Live Free with Josh Howerton

    Are we actually living in the last days? And what if most Christians have misunderstood the end times entirely? In this special episode of LIVE FREE, Pastor Josh Howerton sits down with John Bevere to unpack the Second Coming of Christ, the rapture, and the rise of global deception. From shocking biblical timelines to the possibility of a “strong delusion,” this conversation connects Scripture to what’s happening in the world right now. But this isn’t about fear or speculation, it’s about urgency. Because if Jesus is returning sooner than we think, it changes everything about how we live today. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why some believe we’re in the final generation before Christ’s return The real timeline of the rapture, tribulation, and Second Coming What a biblical “strong delusion” could look like in today’s world Why end-times teaching often leads to confusion—and how to get it right How the fear of the Lord produces lasting spiritual transformation The one mindset that will keep you ready when Christ returns Stand firm. Think biblically. Live free. John Bevere’s latest book, The King Is Coming, is now available. https://a.co/d/0iwqRoxx 🧢 Want a Live Free hat of your own?

    Who are the NEPHILIM in the Bible?! (EXPLAINED) | Live Free with Josh Howerton

    In this episode of LIVE FREE, Pastors Carlos Erazo and Paul Cunningham tackle two fascinating and often misunderstood topics: how Christians should think about politics and the mysterious Nephilim in Genesis 6. Looking at Matthew 21, they unpack Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem and the powerful contrast between earthly political power and the kingdom Jesus came to establish. The conversation challenges two common errors Christians make today—treating politics as ultimate hope or ignoring it altogether—and explains how believers can engage culture while keeping their allegiance firmly rooted in Christ. The discussion then turns to the Nephilim, exploring the three historic interpretations of Genesis 6 and addressing common confusion surrounding the Book of Enoch and popular internet theories. Rather than getting lost in speculation, the hosts bring the focus back to the real message of the passage: humanity’s deep corruption and our desperate need for God’s redemption. In this episode, you’ll learn: What Jesus’ triumphal entry reveals about the true nature of His kingdom The two mistakes Christians make when thinking about politics How to discern when leaders misuse Scripture or Christian language The three historical views of the Nephilim in Genesis 6 What the Bible actually says about the Book of Enoch Why Genesis 6 ultimately points to humanity’s corruption and God’s judgment Stand firm.

    WAR in IRAN: What Most American Christians DON'T Know! (ft David Nasser) | Live Free with Josh Howerton

    Is God bringing revival to Iran? And what does honoring the Sabbath actually look like for Christians today?   In this episode of LIVE FREE, Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, and Paul Cunningham tackle two powerful topics shaping faith and culture right now. First, they unpack Luke 6 and the biblical meaning of the Sabbath—why God built rhythms of work and rest into creation, how the Pharisees turned the Sabbath into legalistic religion, and why Jesus declaring Himself the “Lord of the Sabbath” changes how believers understand rest today. The conversation explores how Sabbath is not just about stopping work, but about restoring the body, renewing the soul, and remembering that our identity is rooted in Christ—not productivity.   Then the episode shifts to an eye-opening conversation with Iranian-born pastor David Nasser about what’s really happening in Iran. Nasser shares his incredible story of escaping the Iranian Revolution, how his family encountered the gospel in America, and why many believe the underground church in Iran is one of the fastest-growing movements of Christianity in the world. The team discusses reports of Muslims encountering Jesus in dreams, the spiritual implications of current geopolitical events, and how the gospel continues advancing even in some of the most restricted places on earth.   From honoring the Sabbath to the rise of the Iranian church, this episode explores how God is still moving powerfully across the world—and how believers today can join His mission.   In this episode, you’ll learn: • What the Bible actually teaches about the Sabbath • Why Jesus called Himself the “Lord of the Sabbath” • The difference between legalistic religion and true spiritual rest • Why the church often grows fastest under persecution • What’s really happening with the underground church in Iran • How Christians can pray and participate in God’s global mission   💬 Comment for this week’s hat giveaway 🧢 Visit LiveFree.shop for merch 📲 Text APP to 20411 for the Lakepointe app
