    I Got Into a Fight With a Bouncer… And Learned a Lesson I'll Never Forget

    ONE WRONG DECISION CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE | A Lesson in Anger, Pride & Self-Control One moment of anger. One split-second decision. A lifetime of consequences. Years ago, outside the Black Angus in Stockton, California, I found myself in a violent confrontation with a nightclub bouncer. What began as a simple misunderstanding escalated into a fight that left people injured—and taught me a lesson I've never forgotten. The greatest battles in life aren't always fought with our fists. Sometimes they're fought within our own hearts. Looking back, I realize that pride, anger, and an unwillingness to walk away turned an unnecessary confrontation into something far more serious. How many times have we allowed our emotions to make decisions that wisdom would never approve? In this personal testimony, I share what happened that night, how the incident led me into boxing, and why the most important lesson had nothing to do with learning how to fight. The Bible reminds us: "Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God." James 1:19–20 (KJV) You cannot always control how others treat you, but you can learn to control how you respond. Remember: The choices you make today shape the life you live tomorrow.

    I Jumped the School Fence and Ran Away At 13

    I WAS 13 YEARS OLD WHEN I RAN AWAY—BUT I DIDN’T YET UNDERSTAND WHAT I WAS REALLY RUNNING FROM. The Mary Graham Hall Children’s Shelter felt like a fortress to me—brick walls, rules, separation, and a longing for freedom. Then one day, my friend and I made a decision: We were getting out. We escaped from school, climbed the fence, followed the railroad tracks for miles, and kept going. That night, a group of us sat beside a fire near the railroad tracks with little more than baloney and M&M’s for dinner. For a brief moment, it almost felt like freedom. But eventually reality caught up with us. Years later, I could finally understand something that the 13-year-old Carlton could not: I thought freedom was somewhere on the other side of a fence or farther down the highway. But what I was really searching for was belonging, purpose, and a place where I felt seen. And no matter how far I ran… I couldn’t outrun myself. Maybe there’s a young person in your life who is running right now—not necessarily physically, but emotionally, spiritually, or through the choices they’re making. Please share this story with them. PARENTS: Watch this with your children and talk about it. YOUTH PASTORS & YOUTH LEADERS: Share this testimony with the young people in your ministry. YOUNG PEOPLE: Your circumstances today do not have to determine the rest of your life. The choices you make now can affect where you end up tomorrow.

    Discourses and Sayings of our Lord; John Brown

    Editor's Note: This recording ends one or two minutes early due to a technical cutoff. Thanks for your understanding. What does Jesus really mean when He says, “Blessed are the poor in spirit”? The world tells us that happiness is found in wealth, success, possessions, recognition, and independence. But in the Beatitudes, Jesus turns the world’s definition of happiness upside down. In this episode of The Brother Carlton Show, I open a remarkable work that has influenced me for decades: Discourses and Sayings of Our Lord by the Scottish theologian John Brown (1784–1858). Beginning with Matthew 5 and the Beatitudes, we examine what it really means to be “poor in spirit”—and why this poverty is not weakness, ignorance, or material poverty. It is humility before God. The truly poor in spirit recognize that they have no righteousness of their own in which to boast. They understand their dependence upon the mercy of God and look outside themselves to Jesus Christ and His righteousness. That is completely contrary to the spirit of our age. We are constantly told to believe in ourselves, exalt ourselves, accumulate more, achieve more, and become self-sufficient. Christ points us in another direction. “Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” — Matthew 5:3 KJV This is the first in a series of readings and reflections from John Brown’s classic work on the teachings of Jesus.

    Life at Mary Graham Hall: A Temporary Children's Shelter

    What happens when a hurting child decides he simply doesn’t care anymore? During my stay at Mary Graham Children’s Shelter, something changed in me. What began as following the rules gradually turned into defiance, anger, and rebellion. Alongside Fernando and Sam, I discovered that breaking rules could get me something I desperately wanted—attention. But there was a price. Looking back, I understand something I couldn’t see then: rebellion wasn’t freedom. It was a prison of my own making. And while others influenced me, the choices I made were ultimately my own. This is part of my story—but it’s also a warning and a lesson, especially for young people struggling with anger, rejection, broken homes, or the temptation to follow the wrong crowd.

    Are you a Success or a Failure? What Does God Say?

    ARE YOU A SUCCESS OR FAILURE? | What Does God Say? The world measures success by money, possessions, intelligence, influence, education, and accomplishments. But God measures success by an entirely different standard. You can gain wealth, recognition, and everything this world has to offer—and still be a failure in the sight of God. On the other hand, you may live a quiet and unnoticed life, possess very little by worldly standards, and yet be a tremendous success in the eyes of your Creator. In this powerful message, Brother Carlton examines the sobering truth that there is no true success outside the will of God—and no ultimate failure within the will of God. Scripture exposes mankind's natural condition apart from Christ and reminds us that human achievement cannot overcome the fundamental problem of sin. Romans 1 gives us a devastating picture of what happens when people reject God, exchange His truth for a lie, and worship the creature rather than the Creator. But what does genuine success look like? A godly father who faithfully leads his family can be a success. A mother who raises her children in the nurture and fear of the Lord can be a success. A Christian who loves Christ, obeys His Word, and faithfully walks in God's will is successful—whether or not the world ever recognizes it. Jesus said: “If ye love me, keep my commandments.” — John 14:15 Before you measure your life by your bank account, career, possessions, popularity, or accomplishments, ask yourself the far more important question: Am I a success in the eyes of God? Watch until the end, examine your life in light of Scripture, and share this message with someone who needs to hear it.

    How to Have a Good Conscience

    A GOOD CONSCIENCE — CAN YOU SAY YOUR CONSCIENCE IS CLEAR BEFORE GOD? “Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.” — Hebrews 13:18 KJV What does it really mean to have a good conscience before God? A quiet conscience is not necessarily a good conscience. A person can become so accustomed to sin that the conscience becomes hardened and seared. On the other hand, the believer whose conscience is informed by the Word of God becomes increasingly sensitive to sin and increasingly desirous of walking in obedience to Christ. In this episode of The Brother Carlton Show, we examine A.W. Pink’s powerful teaching on the conscience and consider the marks of a good conscience: sincerity, tenderness, fidelity, and tranquility. We also consider how a good conscience is obtained and maintained through: • Daily searching of the Scriptures • Honest self-examination before God • Obedience to God’s revealed will • Watchfulness and prayer • Resistance and mortification of sin • Repentance and confession • Faith in the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ Paul said: “And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men.” — Acts 24:16 KJV That raises a serious question for every professing Christian: What is the condition of your conscience before God today?

    Without Repentance, There Is No Salvation | Jonathan Edwards

    Repentance is one of the most neglected doctrines in modern Christianity, yet Scripture repeatedly declares that it is essential to salvation. In this powerful sermon by Jonathan Edwards, we examine what the Bible actually teaches about genuine repentance—not merely feeling sorry for sin, but a God-worked change of heart that results in turning away from sin and turning to Christ. The introduction explains repentance as a change of mind and heart that leads to renouncing sin rather than continuing in it while expecting heaven. Edwards shows from Scripture that true repentance involves: Hating sin because it is against God. Godly sorrow over personal sin. Humble confession before the Lord. Forsaking sinful practices. Repenting not only in general, but also of specific sins that have dishonored God and harmed others. Jesus Himself warned: "Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:3) This message is a solemn reminder that the gospel is not merely about forgiveness—it is about transformation through the grace of God.
