• Taking Scripture Back From Your Spiritual Abuser: Naomi Wright

  Naomi was raised in a pseudo-Christian cult. She was subjected to all manner of spiritual abuse and manipulation, from leaders who used Scripture out of context to control, shame, and terrify her. After doing the unspeakably difficult work of overcoming this abuse, escaping the cult, and learning that the Bible never truly supported such things, she now helps others to disentangle Christianity and Scripture from the spiritual abusers who have misused them. beEmboldened.com - I have been sending people to Naomi for help to recover from spiritual abuse. The reports I've so far received back have been extremely positive. People are getting the help they need. Click here for their website.

• How to Spot Fake Humility: 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 49)

  Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:1. 0:18 {False Humility: Pride vs. Confidence} What does biblical humility look like, and how can Christians avoid pride while still being confident in their calling?2. 23:10 {Does God Speak to Unbelievers?} My Mormon friend said, “I felt like God was telling me…” while reading the Bible. Is that really God? Does He speak to unbelievers? How is it any different when Christians read the Word and pray?3. 26:47 {Salvation: Knowing the Exact Moment} I heard you talk about how you once questioned whether or not you were saved because you couldn’t name the specific time or event where it happened. How did you overcome that? I’m in the same situation.4. 31:29 {Tongues During Corporate Prayer?} How do I let someone know that when they pray in tongues during our corporate prayer time, it's distracting? I believe the gift of tongues is for personal edification. I'm not a Cessasionist, by the way. 5. 38:46 {Faithful Believers in Unbiblical Offices?} What do you think about genuine Christians who have served in offices that aren't biblical, like bishops, priests, monks, etc.? Does God use faithful believers serving in unbiblical offices?6. 40:24 {How did Martha Know?} In John 11, when Martha says she knows her brother will rise in the resurrection on the last day, did she know that from the Old Testament, or from Jesus’ teachings?7. 42:36 {Jesus’ Sacrifice: Human Sacrifice?} If God doesn't allow human sacrifice, how do we reconcile Jesus' sacrifice?8. 46:38 {Balancing Kindness & “Tough Love”} How do you maintain kindness in the midst of tension while advocating for yourself or others? Some people lean toward kindness and don't speak up, while others lean toward speaking harsh truth, with an emphasis on harshness.9. 49:57 {Growing in Self-Discipline} Do you have any advice on how to become disciplined in life, such as in the realm of Bible study, sleep schedule, and working efficiently? How do I learn to force myself to do things?10. 52:15 {Guarding Against Greed & Corruption} As your influence grows, how do you personally guard against the temptations of greed and the misuse of power, like the corrupted leaders you're revealing?

• A Warning to the Church about Todd White

  This video is dedicated to the victims of Todd White. The following info is from multiple eye-witnesses who have come forward to tell the truth about Todd White. I've met with them, confirmed their identities, seen the evidence that corroborates their testimonies, and believe that it's Christ-honoring to come forward and shout a warning to believers everywhere that Todd White is disqualified and dangerous.

• When does my sin block my prayers according to Scripture? 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 48)

  Today's Time Stamps: 1. 0:23 {My Sin Blocks My Prayers?} Psalm 66:18 says, "If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened." Does this mean God will ignore a person's prayers if they have active, ongoing sin in their life? How should we understand this verse in context and alongside other Scriptures about God hearing prayers?2. 9:07 {Biblically Defining a “Church”} Biblically (not legally), what constitutes a church? If someone were to host a weekly Bible study and do some volunteer work with just a few people, would that be considered a small church service? 3. 15:29 {Support for Limited Atonement?} How does John 17:9 work alongside John 3:16? Could John 17:9 be a valid point toward Limited Atonement? I do not want to believe in Limited Atonement, but I see verses like this and wonder.4. 24:40 {Discerning God’s Voice & Direction} My girlfriend recently told me that God told her to break up with me. She got us "promise bracelets" that promise that we will get married. Is what she heard really from God?5. 29:26 {Agape vs. Phileo Love} Are agape and phileo love synonymous in Greek? John 3:19 & John 12:43 use agape for loving darkness and men's praise, respectively, while John 5:20 uses phileo to describe the Father's love for the Son.6. 34:29 {Non-Sapien Hominids: Thinking Biblically} How do non-sapien hominids (Neanderthal, Denisovan, Floresiensis, etc.) fit into creation? Do they have the Imago Dei? Are they animals?7. 39:19 {The Apostle John Still Alive?} Have you ever heard the theory that the Apostle John might still be alive and be the second witness in the Tribulation? I found the arguments interesting, as conjecture.8. 45:47 {Is Anointing Oil for Today?} Should we still use oil anointing today (used by elders praying for the sick)? What would that look like?9. 52:00 {An Error in Translation?} In the NIV translation, Deuteronomy 22:28-30 uses the word “rape,” but other translations imply consent. Is this a legitimate translation error?10. 57:16 {Are Charitable Tax Deductions Sinful?} Is claiming our charitable donations on our taxes “receiving our reward on Earth” (Matthew 6:1-5)?

• Jehovah's Witnesses Just Came to My House: 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 47)

  Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:1. 0:38 {The JWs Came Over} What happened when the Jehovah’s Witnesses came to my house?2. 17:05 {So Many Saw – So Little Believed?} Since many saw the saints who were raised to life (Matthew 27:52-53) then more than 500 saw Jesus after His resurrection, how is it that so many didn’t believe He rose (e.g. Saul pre-Damascus)?3. 24:02 {Circumcision: How would Paul Respond?} In Galatians 3, Paul says faith, not law, saves us, citing Abraham’s heirs (Galatians 3:7, 28-29). How would he respond to Judaizers citing Genesis 17:9-14 on circumcision as necessary? Why doesn’t this apply now?4. 29:47 {Online Ordination: Mocking God?} My brother asked me to officiate his wedding. They’re not believers, and I’m female. The only way to do it is to get ordained online. That feels like mocking God and His church. Biblical thoughts?5. 34:48 {“Spirit Princes” – For Today?} Can you explain Daniel 10:13 and 10:20? What is the ‘spirit prince’ of the kingdom of Persia (NLT)? Is the concept of a spirit prince over a region only seen in the Old Testament, or can this happen today?6. 43:08 {How Could a Million Hear at Once?} How can the entire community of Israel, more than 1 million people, fit together & gather to hear (Leviticus 8:3, Deuteronomy 29:10-12, 31:10-13)?7. 47:44 {PSA – Contradicting Proverbs?} If Penal Substitutionary Atonement is an accurate doctrine, then isn't it contradicting Proverbs 17:15?8. 53:11 {Encouragement through Arduous Times} What gives people the will to live in the midst of terror, hardship, poverty, pain, childhood abuse, loss, and all other types of calamity (specifically non-Christians, but also Christians)?9. 58:30 {Garden of Gethsemane: What is The Cup?} In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prays for the Father to let the cup pass from Him. I've understood the cup to be God's wrath, but Jesus says a few chapters later that James & John will drink it, too.10. 1:04:02 {Antichrist: Dead at Christ’s Coming?} Does the Antichrist die or not at Christ's coming (2 Thessalonians 2:8, Revelation 19:20)?
