Today is my special Halloween broadcast! It's October 31st, 2020. You know, we find Evil characters all throughout the bible, even witches!

Did God create evil? What about dualism-here's a topic some may not be familiar with?

Today I mention an old friend who I used to work with many years ago when I delivered pizzas who would come in and say, "I found a hidden gem!" I use this statement to reference the Kingdom of God since Christ refers to the Kingdom as treasure hidden in a field. Questions today are, "Is the church and the church only the kingdom, or is there more to it?" Luke definitely says, "The kingdom of God is within you." What does that infer? What are we supposed to look for and in us if we are to truly have "a hidden gem in our lives?"

I use a funny analogy today regarding the choice of soups to discuss whether we should be progressing or rather remembering Alexander Campbell ideals? Really, are either of them right? Yes, Jesus is the Way, but can we restore the movement of God, or are we where we need to be today? What about great movements in the past? I mention the Boston/Crossroads/ICOC/ICC/sold-out as well as Praise and worship movements. I think I'm asking more questions than giving answers today.

I address a topic in this podcast I was first introduced to in the early 90's, the "dark night of the soul (DNS)." Can, does, or will God ever abandon us? Why at times do we feel as though God has left us. Are there biblical examples of God withdrawing from his people?

Today's podcast is a shortened version from a sermon I delivered this morning at my local church. It's based off of Kennedy's moon speech, September 12, 1962.

I attempt to address health and wealth today as we discuss health and wealth ministries asking the question, "Does God ever promise us prosperity?" He may not always promise us health and wealth but he definitely states in the beatitudes we can be blessed! There are other definite times in scripture however where he does speak of prosperity!

Is it possible that some churches promote mental illness? I address 3 types of churches in this

podcast that possibly we should avoid or at least be aware of.

Ok guys, this one is controversial! I don't have all the answers either! I just wanted to address a post not only by a lady who stated that

"Paul makes me sick!" but an ongoing statement i hear so often that "Paul was opinionated!" Maybe Paul did have opinions of his own

and maybe Paul said some things that were commands of God? I address this in this episode!!
