    Deborah’s Arising: Breaking the Muzzle of Religion

    In this special episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua is joined by his wife Brandy for a powerful conversation that started with one question: Can women be used by God from the pulpit? What followed was not a debate, but a passionate exploration of scripture, testimony, and the voice of the Holy Spirit. Brandy shares her journey from addiction and trauma to freedom through Jesus Christ and explains how God began calling her into a deeper walk with Him. Together, Joshua and Brandy discuss biblical examples of women used by God including Deborah, Priscilla, Phoebe, and Junia, and challenge the religious mindset that has often silenced women in the church. But the conversation goes even deeper. They talk about deliverance, prayer and fasting, spiritual warfare, forgiveness, breaking religious mindsets, and why believers must return to intimacy with God instead of relying on traditions or secondhand theology. This episode is a call for believers to pursue truth in the Word of God, seek the Holy Spirit personally, and walk boldly in the calling God has placed on their lives.

    Acts 17: Truth in a City Full of Idols

    In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua walks through Acts Chapter 17, where the gospel collides with culture, philosophy, and human reasoning. Paul and Silas preach in Thessalonica, where some believe but others stir up riots fueled by jealousy. The mission continues to Berea, where the people search the Scriptures daily to verify the truth. Eventually Paul arrives in Athens — the intellectual capital of the ancient world — a city full of idols and philosophical debate. Standing before the Areopagus on Mars Hill, Paul boldly declares the truth about the unknown God, explaining that the Creator of heaven and earth does not live in man-made temples and cannot be understood through human philosophy alone. Some mock him. Some walk away. But others believe. This chapter reminds us that the gospel is not intimidated by culture, education, or human intellect. Truth still stands when every other system fails. Send us a message For a more interactive experience, watch "The Morning Charge" LIVE every Monday–Friday at 7:00 AM CST on TikTok.

    Acts 16: Midnight Praise and Kingdom Breakthrough

    In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua walks through Acts Chapter 16 and shows how the Holy Spirit still leads, redirects, and opens doors with purpose. From Timothy joining Paul and Silas, to the Macedonian call, to Lydia’s salvation, to the casting out of the spirit of divination, this chapter reveals what it looks like to follow God even when the path does not make sense. This teaching also digs into the deeper meaning behind Paul and Silas worshiping at midnight while chained in prison, and how their praise made room for a miracle that changed an entire household. Joshua breaks down the difference between suffering for the gospel and shrinking back in fear, while reminding listeners that God can use painful places to bring freedom, salvation, and breakthrough. If you have ever felt delayed, redirected, opposed, or misunderstood, this episode will remind you that the Spirit of Jesus still leads His people, and He is still working behind the scenes.

    Acts 15: When Religion Tries to Add to Grace

    In Acts Chapter 15, the early church faces one of its first major doctrinal crises: Do Gentile believers have to come under the law of Moses to be saved? What follows is a powerful picture of how the apostles handled conflict, confronted false teaching, reviewed prophecy, protected grace, and kept the gospel centered on Jesus. In this episode of The Morning Charge, we walk through the Jerusalem council, Peter’s bold defense of the Gentiles, James’ wisdom, and the letter that brought peace and clarity to the believers. We also look at Paul and Barnabas’ disagreement over Mark, and how even what looked like division still became multiplication for the gospel. This chapter reminds us of something the church still needs today: don’t add unnecessary burdens where Jesus has already made a way. Keep the main thing the main thing. Stay rooted in the Word. Stay in His presence. And don’t let religion taint what grace has made clean.

    Acts 14: Miracles, Misunderstanding, and Mission

    In Acts Chapter 14, Paul and Barnabas face the familiar pattern: the gospel is received by many, resisted by others, and the opposition gets violent. We see miracles as “manifestations of grace,” a man healed because faith rose in his heart, and a wild moment where the crowd tries to worship Paul and Barnabas as gods. Then Paul is stoned, left for dead, and miraculously rises and walks right back into the city. We also break down the prophetic meaning in the city names, why the Kingdom realm is presently accessible, and why discipleship and the secret place are non-negotiable if you want to endure persecution and carry real spiritual substance. Stay plugged in. Stay powered up. Step boldly into everything God has called you to.

    Acts 13: The First Missionary Journey Begins

    Acts chapter 13 marks a defining shift in the early church. What began in Jerusalem now becomes a Spirit-led missionary movement. While the church in Antioch is worshiping and fasting, the Holy Spirit speaks clearly: “Set apart Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” From that moment forward, the gospel begins moving intentionally beyond regional influence into global mission. In this episode, we break down: • How worship and fasting positioned the church to hear the Spirit  • What it means to be “set apart” before being sent out  • The confrontation between Paul and Elymas the sorcerer  • Why Paul boldly rebuked false spiritual authority  • The shift from Saul to Paul and what it signifies  • How rejection from some opened the door to the Gentiles Acts 13 shows us that apostolic sending is not man made ambition, it is Spirit initiated obedience. It also reminds us that every true move of God will face spiritual resistance. The chapter ends with persecution rising, but also with joy and the Holy Spirit filling the disciples. When God sends you, opposition doesn’t mean you missed it. It often confirms you’re right where you’re supposed to be.

    Acts 12: Chains, Angels, and the Fall of a King

    In Acts chapter 12, persecution intensifies. King Herod executes James and arrests Peter, intending to silence the growing church. But what happens next reveals a powerful truth, when the church prays, heaven moves. While Peter sleeps in chains, the church is gathered in constant prayer. An angel appears, prison doors open, and what was meant for intimidation becomes a testimony. Meanwhile, the same chapter shows the downfall of a king who accepts glory that belongs to God alone. This study walks through: • Why James was martyred but Peter was delivered  • The power of unified, persistent prayer  • The danger of pride in leadership  • How political opposition cannot stop the Word of God  • Why Acts 12 ends with growth, not fear Acts 12 reminds us that persecution does not weaken the church, it refines it. And no prison, no politician, and no threat can stop what God has ordained.

    Acts 11: When the Church Adjusts to What God Is Doing

    In this episode of The Morning Charge, we walk through Acts Chapter 11, the chapter where breakthrough must be explained and revival must be embraced. After the Holy Spirit falls on the Gentiles in Acts 10, Peter returns to Jerusalem and is immediately questioned. The Church now faces a defining moment. Will they resist what God is doing, or will they adjust their framework to match heaven’s activity? Acts 11 reveals how spiritual maturity handles major shifts. Peter recounts the vision, the outpouring, and the undeniable evidence that God has granted repentance to the Gentiles. The leaders glorify God instead of clinging to tradition. This is a powerful lesson in humility, discernment, and obedience. We also see the continued spread of the gospel through persecution, the rise of Antioch as a mission hub, the reemergence of Saul into leadership, and the first time believers are called Christians. The Church moves from reacting to persecution to proactively building, teaching, and giving. Generosity flows. Prophetic insight increases. Identity deepens. This chapter reminds us that revival is not just about moments of power. It is about properly stewarding what God is doing and being willing to grow when heaven stretches our understanding. When God moves, will we argue, or will we glorify Him? Acts 11 challenges us to recognize grace, embrace expansion, and align with what the Spirit is building. For the burning ones. For the wild ones. For those willing to adjust when heaven moves. Send us a message For a more interactive experience, watch "The Morning Charge" LIVE every Monday–Friday at 7:00 AM CST on TikTok.
