Stand Up For The Truth Podcast

What is dispensationalism? What is the alternate view, covenant theology? Many Christians don’t understand why dispensationalism is being attacked with such vigor; perhaps those doing the attacking don’t either but the prevailing mood today is, there is no rapture or at least not one that takes the Christians out of the world before judgment. And Israel? Well, they aren’t even in the picture and what’s more, that’s not Israel over in, well, Israel. On today’s SUFTT, Mary starts with biblical interpretive systems of prophecy and from there expands on the really big picture of dispensationalism and how it beautifully fits the historical-grammatical-literal interpretation of Scripture. Are we seeing the church age wrap up and the Day of the Lord commence? We look at the history of the Jews, the Temples that have come and gone and why; and why the rapture is as important to us as it would be to Israel. A full hour of fascinating bunny trails. Hippity hop!

In today’s news cycle, what is drawing the most attention is competing ideologies: Islam, Communism, Darwinism – and even Ai? Is that an ideology, or just a basket of algorithms? We talk about all these movements that are converging on our world all at once. Meanwhile, the Christian voice is being drowned out, by design – and yet, as Gamaliel famously said in Acts 5:38-39, “ And now I say to you, keep away from these men and let them alone; for if this plan or this work is of men, it will come to nothing;  but if it is of God, you cannot overthrow it—lest you even be found to fight against God.” And all these ideologies do just that – fight against God. But God is on the throne, we read the end of the book and we know who wins. So how can we come against all these philosophies of men and still be heard? The still small voice of God that Elijah heard still saves – one heart at a time. What can man do to me? A timely discussion of ideologies and elections and when it all comes to nothing.

Dr. JB Hixson

Mary welcomes pastor and author JB Hixson back to SUFTT to talk about toning down the chaos and pressure and spending time in the Lord’s presence. Life used to pace like a slow-cooker (“crock pot” for all you Boomer/Millennial types) but now it’s a pressure cooker, no longer even the front burner or microwave. Faster doesn’t mean better, and in the spiritual realm of things, faster and with a side of drama produces not much except Christianity Lite. Today we pace ourselves through 1 Kings 19 and the drama that was the life of Elijah at times. Having just gone through a tumult with the prophets of Baal, he finds himself in need of rest before he can go on. By the time he gets to that cave in Horeb, he’s depleted and depressed and wondering what’s next. It’s then that the Lord speaks to him, but in that still small way that we hear when the Spirit is working in hearts. After letting him pour out his heart, God sends him on his way. It’s not by might, nor by power, but by His Spirit.

[Originally aired 1/22/26] Mary welcomes back Trey Dellinger, the Senior Legal Fellow of AFA Action, the government affairs affiliate of American Family Association. Trey has his finger on the pulse of the moral issues that affect our churches and our families. Today we look at the current SCOTUS cases on trans athletes in women’s sports. Trey gives us the rundown on those cases and why he has reason for optimism. Then we look at the first amendment as it relates to protesters storming churches. Whether it’s for attention or to bait Christians about race and their perspectives on what is important, we have to see what our rights are as believers. We also take a look at how our kids can be better protected online, since parents aren’t always the best gatekeepers – although that is their job. Finally we look at Human Trafficking Prevention month. So many moral issues, how do we keep up, and how can we help pastors keep up as well?

For the first half of today’s edition of SUFTT, Mary welcomes Chris Chiles, director of the Immediate Response Team of God’s Pit Crew who are in Wisconsin to bring hope and relief to the Fox Valley to those suffering the aftermath of adverse weather.  Having dispatched multiple tractor-trailer loads of critical relief supplies from their HQ in Danville, Virginia, they are now in the process of clearing, comforting, and rebuilding. We talk about the ministry in general, what it takes to be able to offer their services at no charge to a community, and how they bring Jesus to those who lost everything in the blink of an eye.  Chris has such a heart for people, and the ministry has impacted lives around the globe. Also, where else are they needed this year, in a Summer of record heat, rain and wind? How can we come alongside them? Then in our 2nd half, Mary covers a few of the day’s top stories of interest to the believer.
