    Truth, Persecution, and Biblical Reflections on the Murder of Charlie Kirk

    📖 Episode Description: In this special episode, I respond to the tragic murder of Charlie Kirk. While I didn’t follow him closely, I saw in him a man unafraid to speak truth in a culture that often rejects it—a man who claimed Christ and lived with what seemed to be a prophetic call to confront wrongs in society. Together we reflect on: Why truth-tellers often become targets of hate and violence. Jesus’ warnings that the world will hate and persecute His followers (John 15:18, Matthew 5:10–12). How history echoes in moments like this—John the Baptist beheaded for speaking truth, Stephen stoned for proclaiming the gospel. Why persecution, as tragic as it is, often emboldens the Church to stand even stronger for truth. How we can grieve with compassion while choosing courage, mercy, and hope. This is a pastoral reflection meant to comfort, challenge, and remind us: light still shines in the darkness, and truth still matters.   👤 About Charlie Kirk Charlie Kirk was the founder of Turning Point USA and a national voice in the political and cultural conversation. At just 31, he leaves behind a wife and two young children. While his death is tragic, his life reminds us of the cost—and the necessity—of standing for truth.   ✨ Connect with Dr. Brent: 💬 All Social Media: @DrBrentSimpson 🌐 BrentSimpson.com 🏡 MyAriseChurch.com 🎙️ Listen to the Podcast Audio: Podbean

    How to Choose a Bible That You’ll Love To Read

    Welcome to Creating the Future with Dr. Brent Simpson — where we dive into stories, truths, and deep questions that help shape our faith, our families, and our future. In this episode, Dr. Brent unpacks one of the most common questions Christians ask: “Which Bible should I read?” With so many translations and formats available, it can feel overwhelming. Should you go digital or physical? NIV or ESV? Is the King James still relevant? And what about paraphrase Bibles like The Message? Dr. Brent will walk you through: 📱 Digital vs. physical Bibles (YouVersion app, Life Application Study Bible) 🔤 The three main translation styles: word-for-word, thought-for-thought, and paraphrase ❌ Why paraphrase or overly liberal translations should not be your primary study Bible ✅ Why NIV and ESV are excellent recommendations ❤️ Why love matters more than fighting over which version is “the best” 🙏 How the Holy Spirit makes scripture come alive in your life By the end, you’ll know exactly how to pick a Bible that fits you—and more importantly, how to let God’s Word shape your everyday walk with Him. ✨ Connect with Dr. Brent: 💬 Social Media: @DrBrentSimpson 🌐 BrentSimpson.com 🏡 MyAriseChurch.com 🎙️ Listen to the audio podcast: Podbean or anywhere podcasts are found

    Faith Alone Won’t Save You? What Most Christians Get Wrong About Faith, Works, and Salvation.

    📺 Are We Saved by Faith or Works? Here's the Truth Most Christians Miss 🎙️ Creating the Future with Dr. Brent Simpson 👉 Subscribe for weekly content that helps shape your faith, your family, and your future.   🔥 In This Episode: One of the most misunderstood questions in Christianity: Are we saved by faith… or by works? In this episode, Dr. Brent Simpson brings clarity to the debate by breaking down what salvation really means—not just as a moment, but as a process of transformation. You’ll discover how Paul and James are not in conflict, but in agreement—and how your faith isn’t just meant to get you to heaven, but to bring heaven to earth. If you've ever wrestled with legalism, grace, or what it means to truly follow Jesus, this is the teaching you need.   📖 Key Scriptures: Ephesians 2:8–10 — Saved by grace through faith… for good works James 2:17 — Faith without works is dead Romans 3:28 — Justified by faith apart from the works of the law Matthew 6:10 — “On earth as it is in heaven” Romans 6:22 & 8:19 — Holiness, transformation, and Kingdom responsibility   🧠 Topics Covered: The 3 stages of salvation: Justification, Sanctification, Glorification Why justification is by faith alone—but sanctification requires your obedience How Paul and James actually complement each other The danger of reducing salvation to a one-time prayer Why our calling isn’t to “go to heaven” but to bring heaven to earth   ✨ Big Ideas: We are saved from sin by faith… But we are saved into wholeness through works empowered by the Spirit. Heaven is your destination, but participation in the Kingdom is your calling. Jesus didn’t die just to get you into heaven. He died to get heaven into you—now.   💬 Join the Conversation: 🗣️ What do you think—is the modern church overemphasizing justification and underemphasizing transformation? 👇 Comment below!   🎧 Listen on All Platforms: 🎙️ Podbean: https://creatingthefuture.podbean.com/ 📱 Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Google Podcasts — search “Creating the Future with Dr. Brent Simpson” 📺 Watch the messages Dr. Brent mentions from Arise Church here: https://www.youtube.com/@myarisechurch   🌐 Connect with Dr. Brent: 🔗 BrentSimpson.com 🏠 MyAriseChurch.com 📲 Social Media: @DrBrentSimpson

    Were the Disciples Teenagers? What May Surprise You About the Age of the Disciples Jesus Chose.

    📺 Were the Disciples Just Teenagers? What We’ve Missed About Who Jesus Chose 🎙️ Creating the Future with Dr. Brent Simpson 👉 Subscribe for weekly truth that shapes our faith, families, and future.   🔥 In This Episode: What if Jesus didn’t choose religious experts to be His first followers… but teenagers? In this episode, Dr. Brent unpacks the compelling biblical and historical evidence that most of the disciples were likely in their teens when Jesus called them. From temple tax laws and Jewish education to their behavior, fear, and boldness, everything points to one surprising truth: 👉 Jesus started a world-changing movement with a youth group. Discover: Why this changes how we view discipleship How this redefines leadership potential in the next generation The powerful implications for youth pastors, parents, and churches today   📖 Key Scriptures: Matthew 17:24–27 (Temple tax clue) Mark 14:51–52 (John running away) Luke 9:54 (James and John want fire from heaven) 1 Timothy 4:12 (Paul’s mentorship of Timothy) John 19:26–27 (Jesus entrusting Mary and John)   🧠 Topics Covered: Jewish rabbinic training age expectations Why Peter paid the tax but the others didn’t Signs of teenage behavior in the Gospels Why Jesus’ model of discipleship still works today The call to disciple young people like Jesus did   📣 Let’s Talk: 💬 Who’s your favorite disciple—and why? Peter’s boldness? John’s love? Thomas’ questions? ✍️ Drop it in the comments! And share this episode with a youth leader, a parent, or anyone who’s been told they're too young or unqualified to be used by God.   🎧 Listen on All Platforms: 🎙️ Podbean: https://creatingthefuture.podbean.com/ 📱 Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Google Podcasts — just search  “Creating the Future with Dr. Brent Simpson” 📺 Watch the messages Dr. Brent mentions from Arise Church here: https://www.youtube.com/@myarisechurch   💬 Connect with Dr. Brent: 🌐 BrentSimpson.com 🏡 MyAriseChurch.com 📱 All Social Media: @DrBrentSimpson
