TS Wright

Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast is a Bible-centered program devoted to helping believers understand Scripture, discern the times, and faithfully navigate the spiritual, historical, and prophetic crossroads confronting the Church and the world. Hosted by TS Wright (an author, biblical scholar, and Apostolic and Prophetic Teacher) each episode explores biblical theology, church history, prophecy, apologetics, Israel, world events, visions, dreams, and the unfolding purposes of God. By connecting the ancient truths of Scripture with the challenges of the present age, Kingdom Cross Roads offers thoughtful teaching and meaningful conversations designed to strengthen faith, sharpen spiritual discernment, and deepen understanding of the Kingdom of God. The podcast examines the teachings and declarations of Jesus Christ, the messages to the seven churches in Revelation, the historical development of Christianity, the prophetic significance of nations and empires, and the spiritual condition of the modern Church.

It is for those seeking serious biblical instruction, reliable historical context, prophetic insight, and a clearer understanding of where the Church has been, where it stands today, and where it may be headed. At every crossroads, truth matters. Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast calls believers to search the Scriptures, discern the hour, remain faithful to Jesus Christ, advance the Kingdom of God, and prepare for what lies ahead.

What happens when the person everyone assumes needs ministry becomes the one doing the ministering? Recorded at the Christian Product Expo (CPE) Summer 2026 in St. Charles, Missouri, TS Wright sits down with award-winning author Michael Dunn to discuss his faith journey and his book, His Name Was John Whitman: A Life Shared. Michael shares how his Christian upbringing, years of ministry involvement, and 24-year career as a New York police officer helped shape his understanding of faith, people, tragedy, and the transforming power of God's truth. At the center of Michael's novel is John Whitman, a homeless man who becomes the person sharing faith with those around him. Rather than portraying the homeless character simply as someone who needs to be evangelized, Michael turns the traditional narrative around: John becomes the evangelist. Through his encounters with Alan, a worldly businessman initially resistant to him, John's testimony and life begin breaking through barriers and ultimately point Alan toward faith in Christ. Michael describes the book as a fictional story carrying a very real message: the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the grace of God, and the responsibility of believers to take their faith outside the church walls. In this conversation, TS Wright and Michael discuss: Why evangelism must extend beyond the walls of the local churchThe difference between evangelism and discipleshipWhy Christians sometimes hesitate to share their faithHow personal testimony can open doors for the GospelMinistering to homeless and marginalized communitiesHow tragedy, loss, and addiction are addressed through the storyWhy sharing the Gospel does not have to be complicatedThe importance of planting spiritual seedsHelping new believers become discipled and spiritually strongThe Great Commission responsibility to evangelize and then disciple others Michael also explains a practice he uses when giving the book to Christians: encouraging them not only to read it, but to give another copy to someone for whom they have been praying. The central message is simple but urgent: God loves us. Sin separates us from God. Jesus Christ became the bridge that we could never build ourselves. Salvation is God's free gift, but each person must personally receive Christ by faith. And once believers receive that message, we are called to share it. As TS Wright reminds listeners, evangelism does not require knowing everything. It begins with knowing Christ, sharing what He has done, and allowing God to use your testimony to reach someone else. ABOUT THE BOOKHis Name Was John Whitman: A Life Shared was released in 2025 after approximately ten years of development. Michael describes the short novel as a Gospel-centered story intended for readers ranging from teenagers to older adults, addressing themes including faith, homelessness, tragedy, addiction, loss, salvation, grace, and personal evangelism.

The God Centered Concept is designed to bring real discipleship and spreading the Gospel to help spark the Great Harvest, a revival in this generation. www.godcenteredconcept.com Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast is a part of The God Centered Concept. What happens when grief is buried instead of processed—and how can God use even our deepest pain to transform our lives? In this special CPE Summer 2026 edition of Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, T.S. Wright sits down with returning guest and award-winning author Cassandra Armstrong to discuss her book, Growth in the Grief. Cassandra shares how the loss of her mother became the catalyst that caused her to confront years of unresolved grief. Through journaling, prayer, and seeking God, what began as a private healing process eventually developed into a book designed to help others recognize that grief reaches far beyond the death of a loved one. During this conversation, Cassandra speaks candidly about experiencing the loss of her infant daughter to SIDS, sexual assault during her military service, regret over decisions from earlier seasons of her life, and the tendency to compartmentalize pain rather than truly process it. She explains how God began showing her that grief could become more than something to survive—it could become part of a refining process. Drawing from the biblical principle that suffering produces perseverance and perseverance produces character, Cassandra and T.S. explore how believers can bring pain, regret, unanswered questions, and loss to the foot of the Cross rather than allowing those experiences to control their future. The conversation also addresses the reality of continuing life after loss—the empty chair at Christmas, the responsibilities that remain, and the challenge of moving forward while still carrying a story that has permanently changed you. One of Cassandra’s central messages is simple but powerful: we do not always understand God's plan, but we can learn to trust Him in the middle of it. Through genuine repentance, surrender, prayer, and dependence upon God, Cassandra describes discovering the kind of peace that Scripture says surpasses all understanding. IN THIS EPISODEListeners will hear about: How Growth in the Grief developed from Cassandra's personal journalsWhy unresolved grief can affect later seasons of lifeThe danger of compartmentalizing painGrieving more than the physical death of a loved oneProcessing regret and past decisions through repentance and faithCassandra's journey after losing her eight-day-old daughter to SIDSMoving beyond self-blame and learning to trust God's planHow suffering can produce perseverance and characterContinuing to live faithfully after devastating lossBringing grief and pain to the foot of the CrossHow God can use our testimony to help someone else know they are not aloneFinding the peace of God even when circumstances cannot be explained KEY MESSAGEYour grief does not have to become the end of your story. When pain is surrendered to God, He can use even seasons of suffering to refine your character, deepen your faith, and turn your testimony into hope for someone else. CALL TO ACTIONIf you or someone you love is walking through grief, loss, regret, or a painful season, share this episode with them and remind them that they do not have to walk through it alone.

What does it mean to build a Christ-centered home in a culture where truth, identity, marriage, family, and traditional roles are increasingly being redefined? Recorded live at Christian Product Expo (CPE) Summer 2026 in St. Charles, Missouri, T.S. Wright welcomes back award-winning author Gina Romero, author of Welcome Home: A Guide to Homemaking from the Heart and host of the Welcome Home by Gina podcast. Gina shares why Christian women should resist allowing culture to define their calling and instead return to the Word of God for direction. Rather than reducing biblical womanhood to a cultural stereotype or a rigid “trad wife” formula, Gina emphasizes surrendering our ambitions, responsibilities, careers, marriages, homes, and families to the individual calling God has placed upon our lives. T.S. and Gina discuss the changing roles of men and women, the Proverbs 31 woman, marriage, motherhood, working outside the home, spiritual leadership, discipleship of children, and the need for both husbands and wives to submit their lives fully to Jesus Christ. They also confront a growing challenge facing the Church: Christians becoming increasingly influenced by cultural ideologies, progressive Christianity, New Age practices, technology, and competing definitions of truth while spending less time actually reading Scripture. At the center of the conversation is a simple but urgent message: Jesus Christ must remain the standard of truth, and the Word of God must remain the foundation of the Christian home.

What happens when a nation blessed by God begins to forget the One who blessed it? In this special Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast interview recorded at the Christian Product Expo (CPE) Summer 2026, host TS Wright sits down with award-winning author Jolie Vogliardo to discuss her book, America, the Sleeping Giant and Her Slumbering Church. Jolie shares her testimony of being raised in an atheistic home, coming to Christ at age 18, and developing a deep love for Scripture that ultimately shaped her ministry and writing. Drawing heavily from Ezekiel 16, Jolie explains why she sees striking parallels between ancient Israel and modern America. Israel experienced extraordinary blessing but repeatedly turned away from God—and Jolie believes America and much of the American church face a similar spiritual crisis. The conversation explores the dangers of complacency, materialism, cultural distraction, misplaced trust in political and religious leaders, addiction, idolatry, and spiritual lukewarmness. Jolie also draws a compelling comparison to Samson, who was called to be a deliverer but fell asleep in the lap of Delilah. Could the American church likewise be sleeping while surrounded by forces seeking to weaken its spiritual influence? TS Wright and Jolie emphasize that the answer is not ultimately found in political parties, personalities, governments, or earthly systems. Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God must remain first. Yet this episode is not a message of hopelessness. Jolie points listeners toward Psalm 139:23–24 and the necessity of personal examination, repentance, renewed love for Jesus, and wholehearted obedience to God. Before attempting to change a nation, believers must allow God to search and transform their own hearts. In this episode:Jolie's journey from an atheistic upbringing to faith in Jesus ChristThe message behind America, the Sleeping Giant and Her Slumbering ChurchParallels between ancient Israel and modern AmericaWhy Ezekiel 16 became foundational to Jolie's messageThe danger of complacency and lukewarm ChristianitySamson as a prophetic picture of a sleeping churchWhy believers cannot place ultimate trust in political leadersRecognizing modern forms of idolatryPsalm 139 and the importance of personal repentanceSeeking first the Kingdom of GodWhy Jolie believes there is still hope for America and the American churchGod's continuing calling and purpose for individual believers Jolie's central message is clear: America may be spiritually asleep, but awakening is still possible when God's people return to Him with humility, repentance, fervency, and wholehearted devotion.

What happens when life suddenly becomes nothing like the future you planned? Recorded at the Christian Product Expo (CPE) Summer 2026 in St. Charles, Missouri, T.S. Wright sits down with bestselling author and speaker Carol Kent for a powerful conversation about faith, heartbreak, surrender, and finding hope when circumstances seem impossible. Carol shares the deeply personal story of her son, Jason, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate whose life changed forever after he was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. For Carol and her husband, Gene, the journey brought overwhelming grief, unanswered questions, and a new reality they never could have imagined. Yet in the middle of that brokenness, they discovered an enduring truth: when God seems absent, He is still present. Carol explains how her family learned to surrender what they could not control, choose life rather than emotional defeat, and allow their pain to become a platform for sharing the hope of Jesus Christ. She also shares how Jason has used his years in prison to minister to other inmates, encourage men in their faith, mentor those around him, and point others toward Christ. The conversation explores themes from Carol’s books When I Lay My Isaac Down and A New Kind of Normal, including what it means to trust God when life does not have a neat or tidy ending.
