Stand Up For The Truth Podcast

We welcome back Kyle Peart and Flynn Huseby of Once Lost Ministries, apologists and evangelists who work tirelessly to bring truth and clarity to those caught up in false teaching. Today we discuss the Catholic faith and the various aspects that are unscriptural: Tradition, relics, sacraments, purgatory, and veneration of Mary. With all the religious aspects, extra-biblical focus and gospel of good works, how is it that a Catholic can never be assured of salvation? There is a lot of busy-ness, as in all religions, but none of it ever seems to produce the fruit of repentance and a biblical understanding of the new birth. We also discuss the ecumenical bent that has long been part of this huge denomination but we have to ask ourselves, to what end? Dominionism, or something more sneaky - the desire to bring all Protestants "home to Rome". A thoughtful discussion that will hopefully open eyes to the vanity of religiousity.

Mary chats with Pastor and author Mike Abendroth who has written a 31 day devotional on how to allow God to shepherd us when we find ourselves suffering from chronic illness. The title alone is very freeing, and when we search the Scriptures, how much more is this true and verified over and over as we seek to get to know our Good Shepherd better. Everyone is shepherded, led - and follows -  something in this life, we are all serving something, someone. But for the believer, the true Shepherd cannot be supplanted by something as temporal as illness; beyond that, He cherishes and cares deeply for each of us each day, in sickness and in health. As he says in this devotional, "Cancer is not your shepherd. Cancer is not in charge. Cancer is not all powerful. Cancer does not have the last word. Cancer is not a surprise to the Lord. Cancer - is NOT your shepherd". A much needed devotional in these trying, perilous times in which it seems more and more people are struggling with serious health issues. Mike is current

Mary chats with author and apologist team Richard and Linda Nathan, who met in San Francisco in 1962, lived through the Sixties, and spent many years together in New Age mysticism before becoming Christians in 1976. Since then, they have taught numerous seminars and classes on discerning our times. They have authored the Omega Point Series of books, Lighthouse Trails booklets “The Cross and the Marijuana Leaf” and “Psychedelic Seduction: Drugging the World and the Church” which we explore in depth today, and have contributed a chapter in the Lighthouse book “A New Narrative for a New World”, a glossary of New Age Terms”. We take on as much as we can in an hour, from the culture of Big Pot which is bigger than ever - and creeping into the church at large. What is THC, CBD and what alarm bells should be going off? An endless source of "boomer humor", pot today bears little resemblance to the '50s-'70s version. We also discuss psychedelics, particularly the "plant-based" type that is so hip these days, but is th

Mary Danielsen chats with Patrick Wood on the Trilateral Commission and it's 40+ year run in planning the future of the world, the one you and I have to suffer through for now. At first, they were the subject of conspiracy theories, today they carry on boldly,  using tech as their weapon of choice to usher in the end game of a New World Order, a phrase first mumbled out loud by George W. Bush. The changes in the world are tectonic, thanks to the Sam Altman types who really think it's all just a game, but a prison planet - cashless and inescapable - is coming soon. Oh wait - it's here. A packed hour talking about the darker parts of the last days, climate change, and how to endure just a little bit longer.   Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

Mary Danielsen looks at yet another aspect of how multinational corporations and their "better living through science" mindset has continued to wreak havoc on the world. As if the origins of the inorganic chemical industry didn't bring enough grief - from 1854 right on up to Pfizer's Cov19 jab - they won't rest until they control the world's ability to produce enough food. It's amazing to consider the grace of God in providing for a world of billions - and all the food that is produced to accomplish just that. And yet the food is not unadulterated, as seen in the rising cost of keeping people healthy that seems to coincide with mass produced food. How did we get here? Monsanto is its name, now Bayer -  the company that gave us Zyklon-B gas for use in Nazi camps. It's a sin-sick world and today we connect some dots. "Big Farm" is here to stay.

Mary Danielsen talks with Linda Harvey about the Social Emotional Learning Curriculum du Jour in the government schools. She is part of a coalition looking deeply into it and it is even more dangerous than she suspected. SEL is more proof that our youth's "mental health", however the left defines it, has become more important to the powers that be than phonics or math, and no wonder - teaching children how to be "better citizens" by teaching them how to react and go along to get along is merely a front for them to accept whatever Marxist ideals get shoved down their throats.  We also discuss how parents are more afraid of the trans agenda than they are of the gay agenda. How do we get them to understand that it's all designed to destroy kids' hearts and minds? Is it a case of "at least I'm not on drugs, Mom" kind of reasoning? An in demand speaker and author, she founded Mission America, a Christian pro-family organization tracking current cultural issues. She is the author of two Christian books, Maybe He’s

Mary welcomes back Chris Quintana live in studio to talk about a particularly troubling pulpit "curriculum" that teaches that the answer to spiritual maturity issues in the churches is "emotionally healthy spirituality". Who is the author of this program, and what are his beliefs? Is it something churches can benefit from or should they run for their "spiritual" lives? We address recent concerns on it. Also, we talk to Chris about the antisemitism on campuses that shows no sign of letting up, and how authorities seem to be clueless on how to stem the tide of hate. There is no other group or culture that the tolerant left would allow to be shown such rancour - except Christians, of course. Are these evil mobs really terrorists at heart? Also, in Ezekiel we look at the "peace and safety" clause of the timing of the Gog and Magog war. You can find Chris online here; you can also subscribe to his YouTube channel and stay current on all his bible studies. No video podcast will be available for today's show. HAVE

Mary welcomes back author and theologian James Spencer,  currently serving as President of D. L. Moody Center, an independent non-profit organization inspired by the life and ministry of Dwight Moody and dedicated to proclaiming the gospel and challenging God’s people to follow Jesus. In addition, he leads the Shine Bright Project which seeks to mobilize God’s people to be and make disciples. James is the author of Useful to God: Eight Lessons from the Life of D. L. Moody, Thinking Christian: Essays on Testimony, Accountability, and the Christian Mind; and he contributed to The Moody Bible Commentary,  and The Moody Encyclopedia of Messianic Prophecy.  His latest book, Serpents and Doves, is a thoughtful guide for Christians who may wish to engage in politics but not lose sight of bearing witness to Jesus, and our unique task of pointing to and glorifying God. Christians are often at odds not only about general political engagement, but whether or not to even bother to vote. And of course, politics should nev

Mary talks with John Hopper about making evangelism a way of life. John has discussed questions about God and life with Muslim clerics in Uzbekistan, Buddhist monks in Canada, slum-dwellers in Guatemala and tennis professionals at Wimbledon. Now, he serves as Houston Area Director for Search Ministries, a nationwide organization focused on creating opportunities for stimulating, sensitive and respectful conversations for those wrestling with life’s big questions. Prior to joining Search, John served for 16 years as a pastor at BridgePoint Bible Church in Houston.  So many Christians want to share Jesus with others but don’t know where to start. In Giving Jesus Away: Finding Joy in Sharing the Gospel, John provides readers with clear principles and ideas on building friendships with unbelievers, starting natural and meaningful conversations that lead to Jesus, and sharing the gospel clearly. In addition, readers are coached on how to tackle their own fears as well as address the barriers that keep unbelievers

Mary Danielsen talks to Bill Perkins of Compass International about a range of topics that he covers in his Steel on Steel series of books. He hosted the first Steeling the Mind Conference in Vail in 1993, and moved to Idaho to take a job with Koinonia House (headed by Chuck Missler) that same year. In 1994 he founded Compass, and proceeded to lead trips to Israel and has since hosted 50 conferences with a tremendous variety of popular and knowledgable guests. Bill has always had his eye on the blessed hope and is a staunch defender of the Pre-Trib view of the rapture. We will discuss the increase of knowledge, Israel, and observe the culture here in the first half of 2024. All of his resources can be purchased at the extensive Compass online bookstore.   Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

Mary chats with Brady Blevins of Watchman Fellowship, an apologetics ministry dedicated to exposing the major cults of our time. Brady serves as the senior apologist at Watchman and has a heart for sharing the true gospel with those deceived by a counterfeit Christianity.  He also teaches and serves as the assistant dean of the Graduate School of Theology and Chair for the School of Ministry at Arlington Baptist University. We discuss the basics of the Witness cult and also get an update on their annual meeting that was held in October 2023. Brady clarifies for us what a Kingdom Hall is, The Watchtower Society, what happens when people leave the cult, and many other finer points of what it means to be a JW.   Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

Mary Danielsen talks with Mike Gendron and ministering to those who are held captive by religious duty and obligation, things that have no effect in remediating the sin that we are all born with. Mike takes no hostages as he delineates those issues such as good works, baptismal regeneration, and the bedrock issues that Roman Catholics have with the inerrancy of God's Word. We will talk about religious zeal without knowledge and the numbness of heart and soul that results in false hope and being inoculated to the truth.  Mike was a devout Roman Catholic for over 30 years, but that changed in 1981 while attending an evangelical seminar when he realized the Bible is the supreme authority for knowing truth. Proclaiming the Gospel has developed many resources to equip and encourage Christians to be effective witnesses to Roman Catholics.   Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

Mary Danielsen chats with Don Shenk, Executive Director for The Tide Radio Ministry. The Tide has been around for over 75 years and has done remarkable work in getting the gospel out on radio in multiple languages and to many unreached people.  Don was born to missionary parents in what was then known as Rhodesia, and prior to joining The Tide in 2001 served as a missionary teaching at a Bible School in Zimbabwe, Africa. In addition to lecturing in the classroom at Ekuphileni Bible Institute, he served as Academic Dean, Director of Student Ministries, and also developed and implemented a manual skills training program to enable rural pastors to minister bi-vocationally. Through twenty eight years living in Zimbabwe, and numerous visits to Africa, Eastern Europe and India as a ministry administrator and resource person for church conferences and leadership training events, Don has acquired a wealth of international, cross cultural ministry experience. As the world becomes more and more of a global village, Don

Mary chats with Frank Figueroa of Reasons for Hope about the upcoming Easter season and what it means not just for believers, but all mankind. Should Christians celebrate Easter? Some may choose not to, relegating it to just another pagan holiday but they are missing the point. Easter is nothing if not a representation of the complete gospel, and what a great opportunity to share it and the sure hope we too have of rising from the dead to spend eternity with our Lord and Savior. We also talk about creation and how this branch of apologetics points to a God who cares about the smallest details in the smallest of species. And we will look at as many "reasons for hope" we can in an informative hour with speaker, apologist, former pastor, and author Frank Figueroa.   Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

Mary Danielsen chats with Sheri Few of USPIE (United States Parents Involved in Education) and the ways they encourage parents to take back responsibility for their child's education. As daunting a task as it sounds to bring the multiple federal education mandates such as CRT, Marxist ideology and sex-ed to a close, Sheri is a tireless worker toward that end and believes it is possible for the states to take responsibility for educating the kids. At the very least, parents should be empowered to choose how and what their children learn, whether it is through the public schools, private schools, or homeschooling. The recent pandemic shone a light on just how much the parents of government school kids had lost touch with what was going on in the classroom. We chat about the blueprint for removing federal mandates over education, and how to engage governors and state legislators on the issue. Last year, USPIE released a documentary entitled, "Truth and Lies in American Education" and the link is found here.  

Guest host JB Hixson visits today with Dr. Brad Maston (Fort Collins Bible Church). What you cannot see really can hurt you! Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against dark forces in the unseen realm (Ephesians 6:12). On today’s program, Dr. Brad Maston (https://fortcollinsbiblechurch.com/) discusses the seen versus the unseen and explains the reality beyond our own eyes.         Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

Mary talks today about Gnosticism, the mother of all cults and originator of all heresy. The early church battled it - and addressed it in the New Testament. Why should we care about Gnosticism? It truly goes back to the garden, it presents a universe where the Serpent wins in the end; it IS the spirit of antichrist. When the bible talks about "vain philosophies" and denial of the resurrection, Gnosticism is in view. There is so much fascinating history here, and a few things you may not have seen coming. Plot twists and modern gnostic films and cults - it's a packed hour. "Casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ."  2 Corinthians 10:5 Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

Mary Danielsen chats with Carl Kerby about the American Church, in particular when it comes to worldviews. Every human has one, and they largely revolve around such weighty issues as, what is reality? What is a person? What happens when we die? What is the nature of right and wrong? Philosophers have undertaken the answers to those questions for centuries, and its safe to say everyone has grappled with these at some point. But in the church, the notion of "worldview" becomes much more narrow - and looking into the worldview of those who shepherd God's flock can be, in this age, a bit disappointing. What are the factors that determine a Christian worldview and whether those who lead God's people get it right, ie, live by every word? Pastors may not be responsible for the sins of a culture, but they do have the responsibility to lead God's people via truth that is not subjective.
