  • Does God Command Restoring Predator Pastors? 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 56)
    Aug 8 2025

    Today's Time Stamps:

    1. 0:33 {Restoring Predators?} As a policy, does God command us to restore predators to ministry, as Rick Joyner teaches?
    2. 23:52 {“Not Many…” So Should I?} How does someone answer the call to be a teacher or a pastor if they feel called but is concerned about the warning in James that not many should become teachers?
    3. 28:36 {Bringing Concerns to Leadership} I am 16 years old, attending an egalitarian church. I’ve been watching and studying your Women in Ministry series. How do I go about discussing this issue productively with the leaders of my church?
    4. 34:42 {“Red Letters”: More Important?} Are Paul's words in Scripture less important than Jesus' words?
    5. 38:47 {The Best Counsel for Couples} My wife and I recently starting doing pre-marital counseling for other couples in our church. What is some of the best advice we should give these couples?
    6. 41:37 {Paul’s Gospel?} In Philemon 1:19, why did Philemon owe himself to Paul? And why does Paul call it "his" gospel (please also see Romans 2:16 , 16:25, 2 Timothy 2:8)?
    7. 49:32 {Worship Lyrics: Thinking Biblically} I have a question about a worship song. Do you think it is appropriate to sing “Let Your holy fire consume us”?
    8. 51:55 {Are Annulments Biblical?} What are your thoughts on annulments? Are they biblical and are they ever wise? Or are people just trying to justify their divorce?
    9. 57:53 {Hats: Disrespectful or Stylish?} My mother-in-law is "old-fashioned." What's your opinion about wearing hats in church? How about pastors preaching in them?
    10. 1:01:42 {Why We’re Never Satisfied} How do I deal with not being satisfied in life? I feel guilty because God should satisfy me and be all that I need, but I don't feel satisfied or content.
    11. 1:06:19 BONUS: Can you PLEASE give a shout-out to my husband, Michael (non-believer) who started listening to you because I wouldn't stop talking about it! Please pray for him!

    I'm taking questions from the live chat...here are the rules:

    I do this live stream most Fridays at 1 p.m. Pacific Time. You're welcome to join.
    To ask a question, you'll need to follow these instructions:
    1. Don't post your question before you see me live on camera.
    2. Post questions as comments in the LIVE chat at the beginning of the stream.
    3. Post your question with "Q" at the beginning so we can easily identify that you are sending it in as a question for me and not just a comment in the chat.
    4. Try to be as clear as possible so I won't misunderstand the question. Keep in mind that I don't know anything about your question other than what you type in that short comment.
    5. Include specific verse references when possible or applicable.
    6. Only one question submitted per subscriber, per stream, please. Submitting the same question into the chat a few times is OK.
    7. Please understand that we don't strictly take the first 10 questions submitted. Our team takes several factors into consideration.
    8. You can also check the "Clip Search" on BibleThinker.org in advance to see if your topic of interest has already been covered in a past session. I try not to answer the same questions over and over, so you may find what you need ther...

  • How victims are demonized: Bob Hazlett, Cindy Jacobs
    Aug 7 2025

    Sorry for the abrupt ending to this video. I was genuinely just saddened by this garbage. I've had some time to think it over and I am going to put this video on more than just X. It seems like a good example of Cover-up Culture and I am hoping that Cindy or Mike Jacobs, or Bob or Erica Hazlett may actually consider these things and realize they have been part of the problem. It would be awesome to see them admit it and make changes!

    Friends, the problem of Cover-up Culture in charismatic churches is even worse than I thought a month ago. Here's a simple example of how leaders give an imbalanced response to accountability and further promote Cover-up Culture in the name of seeking the well-being of others. It's so incredibly harmful!

    You can watch the full, original video from Cindy Jacobs right here.

  • False Prophetess and Blasphemer defends her brother, Mike Bickle.
    Aug 5 2025

    They are trying to put Mike Bickle back in ministry and using false prophecy to do it! This is bad.

    I know my words here are harsh. They need to be. If we respond too gently to this stuff, people will be lulled to sleep.

    I hate making these videos but believe they are needful.
