Stand Up For The Truth Podcast

Feeling unsteady, like the earth itself is moving beneath? You are not alone. Despite the fact that the Bible predicts an increase in seismic activity, that’s not today’s topic. We try here on headline day to make a dent in the importance of a few of the biggest topics of the day, the biggest of which, on a global, historical, transformational level, is Ai. I hope we have succeeded in communicating a fraction of what it is, what it is quickly becoming, and why we have to care. The problem with a headline here or there, throwing names and companies out hoping we all remember the players somehow – is that doesn’t really give the big picture of why we should all be a bit gobsmacked by it – and educated. Tech IS undergirding our lives right now, at home and at work. In every corner of the world. Today we look at Matt Shumer’s viral February 9 article entitled, “Something Big is Happening”. And he is not wrong. Remember that big 70’s hit, “I Feel the Earth Move”? That’s also not wrong.

Q90 ladies Katie and Mary take a look at a trending topic: Ultra-processed foods (UPFs). With the rise in both colon cancer and dementia among people far too young to worry about such things, fingers are being pointed at our chemical-riddled foods. Not just fast foods but anything in a package. Processed foods, those can be minimally processed with the addition of just water and salt, for instance. Canned veggies, tuna, that sort of thing. But UPFs, those have become way more prevalent on our shelves and have wreaked havoc on our health around the world. We have stopped reading labels it seems, because UPFs are associated with over 30 different chronic health conditions. What are some of the ingredients in UPFs? Seed oils, chemical names we cannot pronounce, sweeteners, salt, emulsifiers, thickeners, “flavor” and “color” enhancers – all that and more are causing inflammation and obesity in astonishing numbers. As wives and moms, we understand our unique placement in the home to see to it that our pregnancies, our kiddos, ourselves, and our mates are as healthy as possible, an important calling. We look at ways we can all save money at the store, the doc office – and the pharmacy. Get off the food grid.

[Original airdate 2/13/25] In today’s Stand Up for the Truth, Dave Wager and Jeremy Lundgren, president of Nicolet Bible Institute, discuss the impact of higher education on young people’s faith and direction. Lundgren shares his journey from studying construction to earning a Ph.D. in theology, emphasizing that education isn’t just about career paths but personal growth and faith formation. They challenge the fear of “wasting time” in college, encouraging students to focus on learning, responsibility, and trusting God’s guidance. Whether choosing a Christian or secular school, they stress the importance of knowing why you believe what you believe and surrounding yourself with mentors who will strengthen your faith.

Gary Kah

Mary welcomes back Gary Kah for a timely discussion on Iran, Islam, elections, and Jewish emigration to Israel. What is next for Iran, everyone is waiting impatiently. As much as we might have expected Trump to make a decision on that by now, it is so complex that regime change could effectively make things worse for the people there, in that it is a nation of 95 million people who may get something worse. And Israel, not exactly a wild card, might get involved if things drag on. But someday we may wake up to a Persian earthquake, politically. Then we talk about our leftist cities, how Islam is shaping elections and cities, and how urban life is perilous to the Jews these days. We look at Operation Exodus USA and their work in getting the Jews back safely to their homeland. Finally, some free-range chat about Bible prophecy.

Mary welcomes John Haller back to the conversation – and with his extensive understanding of the Middle East we always come away seeing things a bit more clearly. Today is no exception. John has dug deep into the weeds of what is going on over there and “complex” doesn’t begin to cover it at all. October 7, 2023 seems to have ushered in a new world over there (and over here) with a multi-layered event that has resulted in clarity about the players, their demonic hatred for the Jews, and the depths of antisemitism that have laid down a new normal around the world. Continuing down the hole, we have a wounded Iran ready to do whatever they want to bring chaos and violence to a new level. Also rising to the top are new players with hopeful new influence such as Turkey, Qatar, Syria, Oman, the UAE and more. All of a sudden it’s true globalism, and Trump is contributing to it greatly by bringing as many nations as possible to the table. What could possibly go wrong? Things are happening at an astonishing pace, and we are here to see it all unfold. Pray for wisdom, grace, and eyes to see, ears to hear.
