Podcast: F4F “How to Hear God”

In this episode of Fighting for the Faith, Pastor Chris Rosebrough examines several people’s claims of how to hear from God against scripture. Given how popular the idea of internally “listening” for God is these days, this episode is a must listen.

One of the Most Essential Messages I’ve Ever Heard

Estimating conservatively, I’ve listened to hundreds of podcasts and sermons in my life. Many have edified me, convicted me or taught me. But the sermon/lecture in the latter half of this episode of Fighting for the Faith is one of the best and most important I’ve ever listened to. I hope many of you decide to listen to it.

Cage Match: Pirate Christian interview with televangelist Brian Powers

I always enjoy listening to Fighting for the Faith, but this particular episode which is an interview between Pirate Christian Chris Rosebrough and Brian Powers was really special. It was sort of like listening to a rhetorical cage fight.

Powers’ evasiveness about simple theological questions like do you believe in the Trinity was stunning. Listen for yourself.

Must listen: SUFT’s program on Furtick

Today’s broadcast of Stand Up for the Truth discusses the recent news that came out regarding Steven Furtick and Elevation Church and a rather disturbing coloring book for the children of that church.
