Healing From Abortion: Testimony of Dana Winn

Abortion is RARELY talked about honestly. So, it’s no wonder that women rarely know what they are REALLY walking into. And, for that matter… the men (who create the babies) don’t know what they are in for either. Well, that’s about to change. Join us as we interview DANA WINN, Founder of OVERCOME MINISTRIES and Biblical Counselor, who shares with us, humbly and candidly, what brought her to make a decision that she now feels compelled to help other women NOT make! She shares with us what she feels may have kept her from making such a life-altering decision and what the REAL-DEAL aftermath looked like for her. Dana takes us along her healing journey and reminds us that while abortion is completely against God and the babies who are made in His image, it is NOT AN UNPARDONABLE sin and that WOMEN AND MEN CAN BE REDEEMED. Finally, we discuss how MEN really DO have an important seat at the table in the discussion of abortion, no matter what the world says.

Old Testament: How Important Is It? Interview with Joe Slunaker, PhD

You started reading Genesis… enthralling! Exodus… okay. But, then came Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy… and you just stopped, right? Sure, you’ve read about the creation of the world, the whole Adam/Eve and sin entering the world thing, the plagues hitting Egypt, and, most likely, you’ve looked up Psalms when you had extra emotions or Proverbs when you needed wisdom... BUT, I think I can safely bet that you NEVER thought about getting your PhD in the Old Testament, right? Well, thankfully, for us,… our special guest did! Join us as LEAD TEACHING PASTOR AND UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR, JOE SLUNAKER, PhD discusses the Old Testament in a way that newbies, old-bies, and scholars alike can understand, appreciate, and be encouraged by. Joe discusses whether the Old Testament is still relevant to us at a time when we are nearing 2,000 years after Jesus’ death and resurrection (wow!), answers if we need to follow the Law religiously, and discusses the risks of omitting the Old Testament from your Biblical reading life (whatever the reason may be). He even shares with us why he decided to get a PhD in the Old Testament… you might be surprised!

East Meets West: Communism, Liberty, & Patriotism: Testimony of Kim Parker

Have you noticed that FREEDOM is now thought of as old-fashioned and unessential by many Americans in a place known as the “Land of the FREE”? It’s almost as if one would easily trade it in for a bowl of soup, like Esau of the Bible. Join us as we interview Kim Parker, an American of Chinese-Vietnamese descent and a former refugee whose family experienced the difficulties and oppression of living under communist rule firsthand. Fleeing to America (a risky journey) through a sponsorship by a Christian church in a small Texas town not only provided Kim and her family with the freedom and opportunity to thrive, but it also brought them to Christ and gave them a profound appreciation for America. Kim graciously shares her knowledge of history and helps us gain a bird’s eye view of our present situation here in the States. Kim Parker is now a clinical social worker with a doctorate in education and is the author of a self-help memoir-- East Meets West: Parenting from the Best of Both Worlds. She is also the co-founder of the Association of Christians in Health and Human Services (ACHHS).

Parenting RIGHT, Not Left: Interview with Stacy Manning

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. The world wants to parent your children. It wants you to take your seat, keep your mouth shut, and support its efforts to indoctrinate your children in ways that are contrary to God’s Word, natural law (instituted by the Lord), and, honestly, contrary to common sense. The world is a self-proclaimed authority that enthralls children looking for guidance. IT’S TIME TO TAKE BACK THE REIGNS OF PARENTING. You can do it. Join us as we interview our guest, Stacy Manning, Author of books: Raising Conservative Kids in a Woke City and Them Before Us, who helps identify ways we can parent right, not left… and why we should concern ourselves with doing just that. She is a child rights advocate with “Them Before Us” organization, fighting for and educating on Biblical justice related to children’s rights and has a wealth of knowledge of how we can preserve truth for our children.

Salvation: Saved by Grace! Interview with Cesar Lopez

Eternity is a LONG time… Agreed? Yes!

Heaven seems so much more preferable than Hell… Agreed? Yes!

So, let’s jump in and discuss the not-so-little topic of salvation! Join us as we interview Cesar Lopez, a local church elder, as he discusses all-things salvation. For example:

• How does the Bible use the term salvation and what does it refer to? (You might be surprised!)
• Once you have salvation, can you lose it?
• Can you earn salvation through doing good works? Is that what “work out your own salvation” means in Philippians 2?
• What if someone is a “back-slidden” Christian or worse, someone who never returns to Christ? (We all know a few!)

TAKE NOTE!... I can just about GUARANTEE that you can’t walk away from this episode without feeling fired-up about your own salvation and/or telling others about the salvation they so desperately need… and where the one place they can receive it is. Hallelujah.

Wholly Transformed: Testimony of Rev. Daren and Rhoda Mehl

Most of us wouldn’t even think to question God’s transformation power, right?!... Right!... That is UNTIL we talk about the LGBT community and then it’s almost like we forget God’s ability to transform a person wholly and make him or her holy. Join us as Rev. Daren and Rhoda Mehl, Founders of Made Free Ministries, share their testimony as two former LGBT-identified persons who personally experienced God’s transforming power and were both made free from their prior ways. Rev. Daren and Rhoda take time in this episode to help us distinguish counterfeit and distorted beliefs on this subject and give much-needed insight, education, and encouragement to the church and those in the LGBT lifestyle. YOU ARE NOT GOING TO WANT TO MISS EVEN A SECOND! **Mature topics discussed.

Apologetics: Knowing What You Believe and Why! Interview with Kattien Rosario Pavey

You know WHAT you believe... BUT, do you know WHY you believe it?! And, moreso, do you know it so well that you would you be able to ANSWER someone’s questions if they asked them? Well… enter apologetics! Join us as we interview Kattien Rosario Pavey, Vice President of Women in Apologetics Ministry as she gives us an introduction to what apologetics is, why it’s important and helpful to study in our faith, provides us examples of what employing apologetics entails, and also provides us with enough resources to send JUST ABOUT ANY BELIEVING PERSON … a mom, dad, sister, brother, teen, grandma, mentor, uncle, etc… on their way to becoming an apologetics expert.

How Sensational! An Intro to the End Times: Interview with Manny Elias

Our world has become so crazy and backward in its thinking and practice that you are probably thinking, “Yup, Jesus should be here just about any second now!”… Or, maybe someone had a “revelation” and told you exactly when He’ll return? Well, join Manny Elias, co-host of The Rooted and Edified Show, on this episode as he gives us an intro to Eschatology, which is the study of the end times. Manny discusses the main views of the end times and why someone may hold their perspective, yet also warns us against the dangers of sensationalism. Praise Jesus that one’s view on the end times doesn’t determine one’s salvation!... Because this is not an area in which all believers and scholars agree… And, we certainly wouldn’t want anyone to be “Left Behind”.

 

STAY TUNED for future episodes on the book of Revelation and on the topic of the “anti-Christ”.

 

**Oh! And, just to clarify… Kat meant to say “Xennials” was her generation, Not “Xellenials”! 😊

The Two Shall Become One Flesh: Testimony of Manny & Kat Elias
