    DWDP - Gen 14: 1-16 The War of the Kings

    Send us Fan Mail Five kings sweep in, cities fall, and Lot is carried off like collateral damage. When we open Genesis 14, the story moves fast, but the questions underneath it are the ones we all live with: what do you do when evil feels organized, when the odds look stupidly unfair, and when someone you love gets caught in the mess? We walk line by line through the war of the kings, the rebellion over tribute, and the hard details that make the text feel real, including the valley of Siddim and its tar pits. Along the way, we talk about the strange tribal names, why some Bible scholars connect them to the Nephilim and “giants,” and how Scripture frames both human violence and spiritual corruption without turning the passage into fantasy or fear bait. Then everything narrows to one decision: Abram hears Lot is taken, gathers 318 trained men, and moves. The lesson is bigger than tactics. I call it the “God factor” the reality that God can flip outcomes that look impossible, just like Gideon’s victory. To make it concrete, I share a personal story from medical school when a creation vs evolution debate had a price tag we could not cover, and God provided anyway.

    MTM- Dr. Jackson and Hannah discuss (Pig Tales And Bible Truths)

    Send us Fan Mail A pair of eaten pants turns into a spiritual gut check. Dr. Robert Jackson sits down with his daughter, Hannah Miller, to introduce his newest book, The Family Doctor Speaks, Pig Tails, and Bible Truths, a collection of short pig farm stories that lead straight into clear Bible teaching. It starts light and funny, then quickly becomes personal: when you’re around something long enough, you can stop noticing the stink. We dig into the first chapter, “Accustomed to Sin,” and talk about how easily Christians can get used to darkness in our homes, our screens, and our conversations. Dad shares a story about a pastor who refuses to “get accustomed to the dark,” plus a vivid memory from early medical exposure that shows how quickly the human mind adapts. The practical takeaway is simple and searchable for everyday Christian living: ask, “Can I look at this with Jesus? Can I read this with Jesus? Can I talk about this with Jesus?” If not, we should treat it like pig poop and back away before it stains us for years. The conversation also turns toward legacy. We explain why we write books and record teachings now, so children and grandchildren can know our testimony later. We touch on Dad’s other books on pro-life truth, evangelism, hunting stories with biblical lessons, and a family biography, plus future plans to address modern bioethics issues like organ transplant, medical assistance in dying, and IVF.

    DWDP - Gen 13: 14-18 God Speaks in the Quiet Place

    Send us Fan Mail God doesn’t just speak through big moments. Sometimes He waits for the room to get quiet after the argument, after the tension, after the pride finally loosens its grip. We open Genesis 13:14–18 and sit with a striking detail: the Lord speaks to Abram after Lot separates from him. That timing becomes the thread we pull through the whole devotional, because most of us want clarity from God while we’re still emotionally tangled up. We talk honestly about what blocks meaningful worship, why Jesus calls us to reconcile before we bring our gift, and how broken relationships can turn our singing into performance. I share a personal moment from leading worship while carrying unresolved conflict, and what changed when I finally made things right. If you’ve been asking how to hear God’s voice, this is a practical place to start: peace, repentance, forgiveness, and a return to the quiet place. Then we zoom out to the “forever” promise in Genesis and what it means for biblical prophecy, Israel, and the church. I explain why I believe prophecy is meant to shape character more than satisfy curiosity, using 1 John 3 and the bride of Christ picture in Ephesians 5 to call us toward purity and readiness. We also explore Abraham’s land promise, faith that looks beyond a lifetime, and why Christ is the true Seed who brings the promise to its full fulfilment.

    MTM - Interview with Laura Scharr..New Developments in Election Integrity

    Send us Fan Mail If you’ve ever wondered why election trust feels like it’s evaporating, this conversation gets specific fast. Dr. Jackson sits down with Laura Scharr of South Carolina Safe Elections to unpack election integrity concerns that range from voter registration roll accuracy to the security of election databases, electronic poll books, and machine tabulation. We talk through claims of non-citizens appearing on voter rolls, what that could mean for eligibility controls, and why transparency is the missing ingredient that keeps suspicion alive. We also dig into the policy battles shaping the next steps in election reform: executive orders calling for documentary proof of US citizenship to register, photo voter ID to vote, tighter procedures around mail-in ballots, and stronger voting system certification standards. Laura explains why the SAVE America Act is a flashpoint and why she wants a roll call vote that puts every senator on record. If you care about clean elections, secure elections, and voter eligibility rules, you’ll hear the arguments and the pressure points in plain language. Then we move from headlines to mechanics: what “tabulators” actually read, why barcode-based ballots raise concerns for some voters, and how redundant safeguards can improve confidence even before bigger reforms happen. Laura lays out a “bank teller approach” to elections: paper backups, independent verification, and robust hand-count audits that serve as a check on machines rather than blind faith in them.

    DWDP - Gen 13: 5-17 Lot's Sad Choice

    Send us Fan Mail One choice can change the direction of a whole family, and Genesis 13 shows it in painfully clear detail. We watch Abram and Lot hit a pressure point: their herds grow, the land feels limited, and the conflict starts to spread. What happens next isn’t just a story about ancient tent life, it’s a mirror for modern Christian living, leadership under stress, and the daily decisions that shape our witness. We talk through a principle that hits close to home: righteousness spills over. When Christ is alive in us, the blessing doesn’t stop with us, it touches our kids, friends, coworkers, neighbors, and church. But the overflow works both ways. Sin and compromise don’t stay private for long, and the people closest to us often pay the first price. From Joseph’s influence in Potiphar’s household to Abram’s mixed track record, we tease out how integrity and failure ripple outward. Then we slow down at the crossroads moment: Abram offers Lot the first pick, and Lot chooses what looks best. The Jordan Valley seems like Eden, yet it pulls him toward Sodom. We connect “pitching your tent toward Sodom” to the modern temptation to stay close enough to the world to enjoy its advantages while trying to keep a clean testimony. That tension leads to a practical question: if your light is getting swallowed by the darkness around you, do you need to step back and rebuild strength? We close with a path forward for anyone who feels compromised: confess to God, make it right with people, and protect your witness with real boundaries.

    MTM - Interview with Mike Catto - Beta Glucan, the Miracle Cancer Cure

    Send us Fan Mail A father’s death from pancreatic cancer sparks a decades-long hunt for a better answer, and it leads to one surprising place: the cell walls of baker’s yeast. We’re joined by Mike Catto, a researcher and biotech founder, to unpack beta-glucan and why the specific 1-3/1-6 linkage he works with matters for immune modulation and cancer immunotherapy. We walk through Mike’s path from early biopolymer work to acquiring failed injectable beta-glucan patents, rebuilding the process, and pushing through an expensive FDA clinical-trial journey. He shares why major cancer centres tested this approach, how a therapy can be labelled “fast-tracked” yet still stay out of patients’ hands, and what he believes keeps an injectable option stuck in limbo. Then we slow down and get practical. Mike explains the proposed mechanism of action: priming innate immunity, including NK cells, so the immune system can better recognise and attack tumour targets. We also discuss oral versus injectable beta-glucan, daily immune support dosing, the idea of trained immunity, and the add-on protocol he uses for late-stage cancer cases, including ivermectin, fenbendazole, vitamin E, curcumin, and CBD oil tincture depending on the situation. Finally, we cover where he tells people to get the 1-3/1-6 beta-glucan product and what to avoid when shopping.

    DWDP - Gen 13: 1-4 Back To Bethel, Back to God

    Send us Fan Mail Abram walks out of Egypt with more money and less dignity, and that tension hits close to home. We sit with Genesis 13:1–4 and watch him head back to Bethel, back to the first altar, back to the place where he called on the name of the Lord. It’s a story about what happens when fear pushes us into shortcuts, when we compromise convictions, and when our testimony takes a public hit even if our circumstances look “fine” on the outside. We also get painfully practical. I share a personal high school story about a beach house trip, the wrong crowd, underage drinking, and ending up at a police station trying to clean up the mess. The point is not shame for shame’s sake. It’s a warning about choices, community, and how fast things slide when we ignore clear boundaries. Scripture’s line rings true: evil company corrupts good morals, and “Egypt” is rarely as far away as we think. Then we land on the hope: the way back. Real conversation with God starts with worship, moves into confession, and rests on the promise of forgiveness. No matter how many steps you’ve taken away from God, it only takes one step to return, honest repentance. We anchor that confidence in 1 John 1:9 and the cleansing blood of Jesus, not in church attendance, baptism, or family heritage. If you’ve been needing a reset, a return to basics, or assurance of salvation, come back to Bethel with us.

    MTM - Interview with Joe Wolverton..Who is the Fabian Society

    Send us Fan Mail A quiet revolution is still a revolution, especially when it arrives through classrooms, committees, and “reasonable” rules that nobody voted on. We talk with constitutional lawyer Joe Wolverton about the Fabian Society and the idea of slow-motion political change: not a dramatic overthrow, but a steady reshaping of how people think, speak, and comply. We dig into the Fabian method of building power through institutions, from universities to civil service, and why credentialed “experts” can become a substitute for the consent of the governed. Joe explains the symbolism, the long game behind “make haste slowly”, and why modern governance often feels like management by unelected planners. We also connect the dots to the administrative state, the Council on Foreign Relations as an American counterpart, and the way regulations can function like binding law in daily life. A big part of the story is language. When definitions of free speech, rights, sovereignty, and even what “keep and bear arms” means are detached from their constitutional roots, the public conversation changes without most people noticing. We also examine how incremental reforms get framed as necessities, not choices, and why tools like digital currency raise concerns about future control through permissioned spending. If you care about constitutional rights, civic literacy, and protecting self-government, you’ll leave with a clear challenge and practical next steps: grow in virtue, get educated, and organise with like-minded people.
