    Episode 10 Haggai

    Send us Fan Mail Haggai takes place after the Jewish exiles returned to Jerusalem and began rebuilding the Temple, only to abandon the project as they focused on their own homes and personal concerns. Through the prophet Haggai, God calls the people to reconsider their priorities and reminds them that their spiritual responsibilities should come before their pursuit of comfort and prosperity. The people respond to Haggai's message and resume construction of the Temple under the leadership of Zerubbabel and Joshua son of Jehozadak.  Haggai also encourages those who are discouraged by the new Temple's modest appearance, assuring them that God is with them and that its future glory will be great. He teaches that genuine obedience and holiness matter more than outward religious actions alone. Overall, the book emphasizes the importance of putting God first, faithfully carrying out His work, and trusting in His promises for the future. In this episode we also touch on how worldly power can be taken at any moment and all should remain aware and diligent. God has it all in hand.  Support the show The content of this Podcast is to bring perspective and it is also an attempt to bring God's word.

    Episode 9 Mental Wellness

    Send us Fan Mail This episode is centered around how we can reduce the stigma surrounding mental health. Key ideas include normalizing conversations about mental health, improving education about mental illnesses, sharing personal experiences to increase understanding, challenging stigmatizing language and stereotypes. We also dive into the need for expanding access to mental health care, addressing discrimination and systemic barriers, respecting cultural differences, and viewing people as more than a diagnosis.  We emphasize the importance of remaining open enough to be the one person to step into someone's life and help them view life from a different perspective. Prevention of death by suicide is discussed and how emotions and circumstances can be fleeting.  The main takeaway from the discussion is that stigma decreases when mental health is treated as a normal part of overall health, people feel safe discussing their experiences, and support and treatment are accessible without fear of judgment. Let's encourage one another to talk about it!  Support the show The content of this Podcast is to bring perspective and it is also an attempt to bring God's word.

    Episode 8 Warfare Strategy

    Send us Fan Mail This episode completes the three-part series on Spiritual Warfare. In this spiritual warfare, the Bible gives us a balanced toolkit for both defense and offense. Defensively, we rely on truth, righteousness, faith, salvation, and readiness, all described as part of the armor of God in Ephesians 6. Offensively, we wield the Word of God, the sword of the Spirit, and stay constant in prayer. As soldiers in this battle, we endure like faithful servants, resist temptation, and remain rooted in God’s truth, knowing that Christ’s victory is already secured.

    Episode 7 The Best Offense

    Send us Fan Mail Part two of this three-part series is focused on understanding the enemy's tactics. We look at how deception, subtle temptation, and distortion of truth are key strategies Satan uses, often disguised as something good or reasonable. We break down biblical examples, like how Satan twisted God’s word in the Garden, and how he uses doubt and accusation. For both believers and non-believers, we emphasize the importance of resisting temptation, staying grounded in truth, seeking God’s wisdom, and cultivating discernment so they’re not caught off guard by these tactics. Satan's tactics are typically the same, so it is important for us to identify these which will give us the best offense in our spiritual warfare.  Let me know what you think!  Support the show The content of this Podcast is to bring perspective and it is also an attempt to bring God's word.

  5. Episode 6 Spiritual Beings

    Episode 6 Spiritual Beings

    Send us Fan Mail As the foundation for this three-part series, we examine the reality that we are in a spiritual war and that spiritual beings are part of everyday life whether or not we can see them. The focus is on recognizing these beings and discerning whether they operate under the kingdom of God or under Satan’s influence. The Bible presents unclean spirits as capable of inhabiting physical bodies, and the Gospels record instances of individuals being delivered by Jesus, demonstrating both the reality of such influence and God’s authority over it. Listeners are encouraged to consider that some outward physical manifestations may, in certain cases, point to deeper spiritual causes. Because of this, listeners are encouraged to place the entire Armor of God on each and everyday as the Apostle Paul informs believers in the New Testament.   Support the show The content of this Podcast is to bring perspective and it is also an attempt to bring God's word.

  6. Episode 5 Compromise

    Episode 5 Compromise

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode we explore how the church in Pergamum, from the Book of Revelation, faced a particular threat: compromise. Satan shifted his tactic from outright persecution to subtle infiltration, mixing worldly practices with faith. We then draw a parallel to today, how entertainment, media, and social platforms often subtly push compromise on us. The call is to stay alert. It's not about choosing one extreme or the other but staying anchored in our values, being discerning, and refusing to drift toward the middle ground that dilutes our convictions. We must remain vigilant in this day to ensure that we are not compromising, even if just a little, on God's word.  Support the show The content of this Podcast is to bring perspective and it is also an attempt to bring God's word.

    The Ending

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we continue expanding on Matthew and the discussion from episode 1. We venture out to Revelation 19 and 20 where we discuss the 'blueprint' for what is prophesied to come in Christian belief. Listeners are encouraged to learn more about how Jesus is the answer and how through His life, death and resurrection, He atones for all of our sins. Listeners are faced with the challenging question of who's kingdom are they advancing in this life, God's or Satan's. We discuss how it is revealed in Revelation that Jesus is the Word and how John depicts this in John 1:1, but also ties it to Revelation and that Jesus was present from the beginning. Jesus's life is not only a representation of God's love for us but also a reminder that God emptied Himself in order to create Jesus, so He could relate to our human experience. Listen in and please feel free to leave comments. I appreciate your ear! Take care and may God bless you.   Support the show The content of this Podcast is to bring perspective and it is also an attempt to bring God's word.
