I once told an agnostic friend and co-worker that I was convinced he would have to become miserable before he accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior. Additionally, I told him I was praying towards that end. I also told a Bahai colleague of ours, after a vigorous spiritual debate, that his unbelief in Jesus being the son of God would eventually be broken upon his coming to the point of death someday. Was I out of line to make such statements? Check out this 15-minute episode and decide for yourself--and thanks for listening.

Today we learned that a young national championship wrestler in Iran was publicly executed. While everyone has an opinion on the war in Iran, there are some facts that are undebatable: anyone in Iran who dares speak out against the Regime (like the 19 year old wrestler) will be executed, and all those in Israel and the United States have been in the crosshairs of the Regime's vile hatred for decades. In this episode I share hope, based on a dear friend who became a Jesus follower after years of being an Islamic scholar. His testimony is dramatic, and the evangelism he conducts amongst the Persian people is off the charts encouraging.

Justified. The Bible says as a follower of Jesus you are justified and some like to say that means it's, "Just as if I never sinned." However, as you'll find out it this encouraging episode, it's actually even better than that! Plus, I'll share an experience from this past weekend illustrating how easy it is to share your faith with someone who's facing life threatening challenges.

This episode continues the theme of how God uses a multitude of circumstances to lead us into His plans for our lives. In this case, the Lord arranged for my family to adopt our son Joshua, who was originally born in an ambulance, in Oakland, California, addicted to cocaine. His story is incredible. By the way, I highly encourage you to listen to my daughter's podcast, "Real and Redeemed" (episode 25) to hear Josh's testimony for yourself. May God richly bless your day.

My life's story is filled with examples of how, time and time again, God has been actively involved in proving He is for me and not finished with trying to shape me into a godly man. And guess what? In this episode you will discover He has been doing the same thing in your life. Why? Because He is for you and not against you.

Who in your life needs to hear about possessing an authentic faith in Jesus? In this episode I share how God's grace (and mercy) enabled me to witness both of my parents coming to know their Savior shortly before their deaths. I earnestly pray this podcast will encourage you share your story with others, and invite someone to repent and accept Jesus as their Lord.

Finding Faith. This opening episode to the new series, "15 Minutes," describes my journey from tragedy to triumph. I hope this testimony will encourage, empower, and perhaps even enlighten you.

I'm not in this for money; I'm in this because I feel compelled to share from my heart and bring hope, encouragement, enlightenment and inspiration to you, your family and your friends. Sometimes the conversation will be emotionally raw. Other times it will be down right hilarious. No script, just a stopwatch to keep these podcasts as close to 15 minutes as possible. Join me, this Monday!

Geoengineering, weather modification, cloud seeding and contrails. While many who contend such topics are based on right wing conspiracy theories, there are notable figures on the left who have personally pumped millions of dollars into the research and development of this contentious atmospheric experiment. In this episode, best-selling author Brian Sussman turns to his book, Climate Cult: Exposing and Defeating Their War on Life, Liberty, and Property (Post Hill Press), reading and commenting from the ninth chapter entitled, Weather Gods. His bulletproof research and thought-provoking intuition should be a wakeup call to anyone who contends to be on the fence regarding this daunting subject.

A mere thirty feet from where I recorded his podcast, a dear person in my life was preparing to pass into eternity. This is a podcast about that man, one of the most influential people in my life.

Luck, happenstance, or God? My wife and I just celebrated our 50th Valentine's Day together. Why has our relationship been able to stand the tests of time, and what good has come out of it?
