Linda Harvey: Sexual Corruption in Education and Culture

by Stand Up For The Truth | Dec 3, 2019 | Abortion, American Church, Culture & Morality, Homosexual Agenda, LGBTQ, Podcast, Religious Freedom | 0 |

Our culture is in a state of chaos. From young children being taught they can be whatever gender they choose, to adults being too busy or overwhelmed to deal with the onslaught of propaganda against Christians, biblical values, and religious freedom; something must change before it’s too late.

Linda Harvey writes: “Truth is critical to a dying patient, and America is gravely ill. All that can save her is all that has ever been able to save her–the blood of Jesus Christ. But when will comfortable Christians proclaim this truth to the nation? What will it take for the church to return to its first love?

Walter Hoye: Black Pre-Born Lives Matter to God

by Stand Up For The Truth | Nov 25, 2019 | Abortion, American Church, Christianity, Liberalism, Podcast, Pro-Life | 0 |

Black lives in mother’s wombs are perhaps some of the most endangered human beings. There is an abortion every 26 seconds in America, and in recent years, statistics show the black and Hispanic populations taking the hit. In New York City, for example, more black babies are now aborted than born.

Mike Gendron: The True Gospel, Tradition, and Catholic Church History

by Stand Up For The Truth | Nov 17, 2019 | American Church, Catholic, Christianity, Evangelism, Gospel, Podcast, Social Justice | 2 |

Why so many religions and denominations? Nearly one in five people worldwide identify with the Roman Catholic Church. Many are serious practitioners while others have no idea what their church’s teachings include. But it is a very popular religion that feeds the need many people have to rely on good works. The problem is they miss the importance of the authority of Scripture, the true gospel, and justification by faith. Today’s guest is author and evangelist, Mike Gendron.

Just Tell Me What Makes Me Feel Good!

by Stand Up For The Truth | Nov 8, 2019 | American Church, Christianity, Discipleship, Evangelism, Leadership, Persecution, Podcast, Seeker Friendly | 2 |

“Please, pastor, tell me what I want to hear. Make me feel good. No hard truths, no tough topics, just love and grace and encouragement. Don’t get too deep. I just want to enjoy my life and not to be challenged in my faith.” Sound extreme? People may not admit it, but we might be surprised how common this attitude is among churchgoers in America.

Today’s guest is evangelist, pastor/teacher, and former Muslim, Elijah Abraham.

Kanye West: Former Blasphemer Now Christian Brother

by Stand Up For The Truth | Nov 6, 2019 | American Church, Christian Growth, Christianity, Culture & Morality, Discipleship, Entertainment, Gospel, Podcast | 0 |

Breaking: Kanye West is human! Yes he is apparently a new convert to Christianity. Yes he seems to be bearing some fruit for the kingdom of God. Yes, he was a blasphemer, idolater, self-worshiper. Yes, he has a long way to go.

But we’ve heard from pastors, celebrities, ministry leaders, and fans. We’ve heard many good reports about the sincerity and boldness of Kanye’s faith in Christ and enthusiasm for the gospel.

Bottom line: let’s pray for his growth and maturity, and watch with cautious optimism.

Witchcraft: from Culture to Classroom to Church?

by Stand Up For The Truth | Nov 1, 2019 | American Church, Christianity, Education, Entertainment, Podcast, Public Schools, Satanism, Spiritual Warfare, Witchcraft | 0 |

All Hallows Eve, All Saints Day, Halloween, Day of the Dead, Harvest Festival, Thanksgiving, Advent, Christmas. The list could go on. As Christians, we live for Jesus Christ and celebrate Him. To live is Christ. He said to His followers “You are the light of the world.” What does that mean? How then should we live and can light mix with darkness?

We recently talked about Halloween and its origins, and discussed how Christians should celebrate it if at all. But we’re moving on to something that is evident in our culture and country year-round, sometimes obvious, often subtle: witchcraft. It’s prevalent in our culture and entertainment industry, kids games, the Internet, and in public school curriculum.

How has the church generally responded?

Today’s discussion is a powerful one that everyone in Christ needs to hear. Dave spoke the assertion that “many attending churches today think they are saved, but they are not.” Is that scriptural?

Gathering Storms of War in the Middle East

by Stand Up For The Truth | Sep 17, 2019 | American Church, Apologetics, Christianity, Church Leadership, Economics, Evangelism, Globalism, Islam, Israel, One world religion, Podcast, Politics and Faith, Worldview | 0 |

The Bible teaches us that in the final years before our Lord’s return there would be a large, destructive war against Israel by her enemies. Could we be witnessing the stage being set for the final chapter of Earth’s history before the Lord Himself returns to judge mankind and establish his everlasting kingdom?

Gary Kah of Hope for the World joins Mike to discuss the events that seem to be pushing the world one step closer to the return of our Lord and Savior?

Who Wants to be God?

The race is on, just as the Bible foretold. Various individuals, groups and organizations are speeding ahead trying to convince people that the God of the Bible either doesn’t truly exist, or that He would want us to come together and connect the “Christ consciousness” in each of us so that human beings can create utopia on earth. Today we take a closer look at the “oneness” movement, the age of re-enchantment, earth worship, and the openness to practically anything except biblical Christianity.

Carl Teichrib, who has studied the New Age and the various movements and organizations promoting spiritual unity and “oneness” joins Mike and David to discuss ecumenism, the World Council of Churches, Catholicism and Islam, the UN, Burning Man, and the World Parlament of Religions. Carl also provides insights from his extensive research contained in his latest book Game of Gods: The Temple of Man in the Age of Re-Enchantment.

For too long, too many people think of abortion as merely a “political” or a “social” issue”. Some suggest it only falls under the category of privacy: a woman’s medical decision “between her and her Doctor”. But the reality is we are talking about life or death for an innocent baby created by God in His image. Wisconsin Right to Life is one of the most prestigious, efficient pro-life organizations in our nation. Mike and David are joined by Heather Weininger, executive director of Wisconsin Right to Life to discuss pro-life issues as well as the September 24 Green Bay dinner and reception for the Veritas Society.

Juan Valdez: Critical Thinking, Culture Wars, and Apologetics

by Stand Up For The Truth | Nov 26, 2019 | Apologetics, Christianity, Creation, Evangelism, Podcast, Worldview | 0 |

People often ask fair questions about faith, God, the Bible, or about truth. Today’s youth are no different. Can you really know God, does absolute truth exist, if God is love why is there evil, do Christians live by blind faith? And many other honest questions.

But there’s a problem. Too often, believers in Christ do not have good, thoughtful answers for them. Are we equipped to answer these questions let alone help today’s young people for the spiritual and cultural battles they face every day?

Jay Seegert on Creation vs Evolution

by Stand Up For The Truth | Nov 22, 2019 | Apologetics, Christianity, Creation, Jay Seegert, Podcast, Worldview | 0 |

The universe reveals a complexity, design, and magnificence that staggers the imagination, and logic shows us that life could not have appeared by some random, spontaneous process. Evidence seems to point to a master plan and an intelligent being; such intricate, organized design must have come from a Designer.

The theory of evolution however, has been generally accepted by the scientific community and academia, and taught as fact in most public schools across America.
