8/30/25 God’s Miracles for Israel 1952
Battlefield miracles demonstrate the Lord is fighting for Israel today just as he did in Biblical times. Jack Hibbs and Amir Tsfati, founder of Behold Israel, say the brutal massacre of October 7th awakened Israelis to obliterate their enemies in the surrounding Muslim nations. God demonstrated Divine protection in Operation Rising Lion, as not a single Israeli pilot or plane was lost as Iran’s radar wasn’t alerted, and left defenseless and bombed. At Israel’s inception in 1948, they were surrounded by massive armies but immigrants barely armed were given miraculous victories by God who repelled their enemies through visions of angelic warriors.

8/23/25 Where is God in Our Suffering? pt 2 1951
Andrew Brunson, author of God’s Hostage – A True Story of Persecution, Imprisonment and Perseverance, was sentenced to 35 years in a filthy crowded prison where he felt abandoned by God. He thought he would lose his mind and his faith. But his wife Noreen contacted President Trump to negotiate with the president of Turkey for his release. Brunson wondered why his loving heavenly Father would abandon him, but God used his imprisonment to start a worldwide prayer movement for his release and the salvation of Muslims in Turkey. There’s a depth of intimacy that only comes through severe testing by God.
 

8/16/25 Where is God in Our Suffering? pt 1 1950
After pastoring in Turkey for 23 years, Andrew Brunson, author of God’s Hostage – A True Story of Persecution, Imprisonment and Perseverance, was imprisoned for two years in a filthy prison surrounded by Muslim criminals and terrorists. He felt abandoned by God and surrounded by evil powers in Satan’s territory. He went beyond panic and thought he was losing his mind and his faith. Why was God silent? He was like Job turned over to Satan to be tested. But he resolved to declare his love for Christ and submit, without God answering his questions. He learned to love and follow Jesus no matter what happened.

8/9/25 Transforming Education, pt 2 1949
“Schools make kids dumber,” says 17 year-old Eddie Zhong, who started his own successful computer business. “Schools can stunt creative thinking.” Education for the masses is not as good as one-on-one. Israel Wayne, author of Homeschooling From A Biblical Worldview, says public schools don’t train young minds to think critically to debate both sides of issues, but homeschool does. What is a good education without Christ in every subject? Secular schools make secular students. Education is Biblical discipleship. Dr Raymond Moore, the father of homeschooling, says producing genius in children has three common elements.

8/2/25 Transforming Education, pt 1 1948
Radio hosts Kevin Swanson and Adam McManus say putting a Christian in public school is like playing Russian roulette with their education, their beliefs and their souls. But instead of one bullet, there are 4 or 5 bullets in the gun. Public schools rob children of their innocence and confuse them with critical race theory. Dennis Prager said, “The one thing people can do to fight against the Leftist destruction of our nation is to take their children out of public schools.” Carole Joy Seid, said, “The most effective tool in shaping a child’s character is great literature.” The right book at the right time can change a child’s destiny.
