Stand Up For The Truth Podcast

[Original airdate: 7/11/25] Mary welcomes back Todd Nettleton of Voice of the Martyrs to give us perspective on one of those things that should drive us to our knees: our persecuted brethren around the world. Todd is the Chief of Media Relations and Message Integration for The Voice of the Martyrs—USA and host of The Voice of the Martyrs Radio. Todd serves as an advocate for persecuted Christians, inspiring US Christians with the faithfulness of Christ’s followers in 70+ nations where they face persecution for wearing His name. VOM is constantly ministering to and providing resources for our church family that has truly counted the cost of serving Jesus Christ. We talk about the latest hotspots, some of the faces and stories he encounters, and how the church can come alongside. In the 2nd half of the podcast, Mary wraps up another week with some pertinent headlines, including some fascinating stories about Britain’s lead in technology, the ramping up of violence toward American churches, and Pope Leo’s green agenda. NO VIDEO PODCAST TODAY.

Mary welcomes back Jay Seegert to talk about foundations, starting points, and worldviews. Communicating with the lost sometimes is reduced to arguing on social media, but that is reducing a pretty complex interaction to trying to out-talk and outlast people we don’t really know, about complex topics that the person probably already has strong opinions about. In the current social landscape, there must be a better way to reason with people and get to the heart of the matter. It’s not about facts that we can convincingly debate, it’s spiritual, and people already have their own preconceived ideas and emotional investments concerning God, and life and death. Is that landscape conducive to contending for the faith? Jay helps the listener understand that there is a way to stick with biblical “starting points” to seek to convince people that 1) God exists and 2) the Bible is His Word, and all the ramifications of that. Anything else is a false starter and rocky foundation.

Mary welcomes back Pastor Andy Woods to talk about all the ways the world is heating up and bringing pressure to bear on believers and Jews alike – and prophecy fulfillment marches on. Today we look at the scary upgrade to automatic license plate readers (ALPRs). While some communities will surely wrestle with a tech that can provide entry points to our vehicle worlds in multiple ways, regardless of the pushback they will likely prevail. What kind of intrusion is this? A massive one. We also look at Canada’s C9 bill that tightens the noose around believers who wish to quote the Bible for all things pertaining to life and godliness. Is anyone home up north anymore with a conscience? We follow the story of the Jewish man in Ohio who simply wanted a prayer meeting in his home but was harassed at every turn. More stories: Erdogan’s Ottoman ambitions; Iraq port and highway development plan; the Presbyterian’s presbyopia about divestment and LGBTQ pastors; and the Scofield kerfuffle (this is a doozy). A very full hour with a fantastically knowledgeable guest.

On this edition of SUFTT – Headlines, Tim and Mary talk about all the ways and means put before us to make choices. Hopefully godly ones, and choices that can make for our peace – or steal it outright. And watching the news generally brings only one of those to fruition every hour of every day. People can of course choose to tune it all out, but then there is the danger of not knowing what or how to choose according to a proper worldview, and understanding more about what NOT to do. It’s complicated in a way, but finding that balance between knowing and not knowing is often very difficult and can steal our joy and energy. Today we look at the idea of free will and why some say that humans are so depraved they can’t choose anything having to do with eternity. We look at the religion of the day: tolerance. And the end game, which is the more the culture becomes tolerant, the more they marginalize Christians who appear to be INtolerant but in reality only point up the intolerance of the culture. We look at the increasing inroads of Islam and the ignition point of Europe today: France. A full hour of headline – choices.

Mary welcomes back homeschooling pioneer Ray Moore to talk about the importance of each “everyman” who desires to lead his family and leave a lasting legacy of uncompromising devotion to Christ. Retired Lt. Colonel and Chaplain in the US Army, Ray Moore has served for over forty years in pastoral ministry as a campus pastor, a congregational minister, an Army Chaplain or Director of a Christian ministry. Ray is co-founder of Frontline Ministries, Inc., and currently serves as the President of the Board. Exodus Mandate is a project of Frontline Ministries, which focuses on prayer, revival and Christian education. Ray is one of the Executive Producers of the 2011 award-winning film, IndoctriNation: Public Schools and the Decline of Christianity in America. Today we are going to talk about his book, The Promise of Jonadab by Ray and his wife Gail. Jonadab, found in 2 Kings 10 and Jeremiah 35 is a minor OT character but one who lives on as an example of passing the torch of faith to subsequent generations, leaving a godly legacy for all to observe and understand.
