  • 25-51 TWO Bible Verses That Hold The KEY To Healing
    Dec 17 2025

    Episode 25:51 The TWO Bible Verses That Hold The KEY To Healing

    Back when I was a teenager I asked God the following question:

    "God, if you're so great… and I know that you are… why are those who believe in you just as sick as those who don't?"

    I wasn't asking out of rebellion, I was asking out of pure curiosity.

    Believe it or not, God answered me.

    Yes, in my mind I heard God respond to me through a verse of scripture.

    A scripture that revealed what the problem was… why Believers were just as sick as non-believers.

    I was amazed… but I was also confused.

    Confused because knowing WHY people who believe in God are just as sick as those who don't led to another question:

    "What's the solution?"

    That is, what do we as Believers need to do in order to correct the problem that makes us just as sick as non-believers?

    This time I didn't get an answer.

    Well, at least not right away.

    It took many years but finally I heard from God.

    Finally I received a scripture that contained the solution.

    Want to know what it is?

    You can… by listening to this episode.

    Specifically, on this episode I share the scripture that reveals why people who believe in God are just as sick as those who don't… and the scripture that reveals what we can to correct it.

    It's a great episode, especially if you're someone who believes that God is still in the healing business.

    Give this episode a good listen and then share it with your friends.

    Thanks!

  • 25-50 This Stuff Can Ruin Your Health!!! 15 Reasons Why You Should NEVER Ingest Aspartame (NutraSweet)
    Dec 10 2025

    Episode 25:50 This Stuff Can Ruin Your Health!!! 15 Reasons Why You Should NEVER Ingest Aspartame (NutraSweet)

    Did you know that the artificial sweetener Aspartame (NutraSweet) was originally designed by the pharmaceutical company G.D. Searle to be a drug for stomach ulcers?

    It was, but it failed miserably.

    However, despite its inability to treat or prevent ulcers, there WAS something about Aspartame that the researchers found interesting:

    It had a sweet taste to it.

    This sweet taste intrigued the researchers and inspired them to look into making Aspartame a sugar substitute.

    Why?

    Because an artificial sweetener would make them, and the company, a ton of money!!!

    Unfortunately, there was a problem:

    In research studies performed on rats, Aspartame was shown to cause tumors:

    Brain tumors, pancreatic tumors, uterine tumors and breast tumors.

    That's not good… and SHOULD HAVE prevented Aspartame from ever getting approval by the FDA for human consumption.

    So, what happened?

    How did Aspartame get approved?

    It's a fascinating, and disgusting, story… one I share on this week's episode.

    I also share 15 dangerous side-effects of Aspartame… each providing a reason why you should NEVER consume it.

    PLEASE give this episode a good listen and then share it with everyone you know… especially those who like to consume "diet" foods and drinks that contain Aspartame (NutraSweet).

    Thanks!

  • 25-49 Your Stubborn Belly Fat May Be Caused By Too Much Of THIS Hormone
    Dec 3 2025

    Episode 25:49 Your Stubborn Belly Fat May Be Caused By Too Much Of THIS Hormone

    Not all weight gain is caused by diet.

    For example, there are millions of Americans who are following a low calorie, "clean" diet and still can't lose weight or get rid of their belly fat.

    Interestingly, for many of these individuals there is a hormone involved… a hormone that's NOT Insulin.

    Instead, it's a hormone that their body NEEDS but is producing far too much of.

    A hormone that is directly related to weight gain, stubborn belly fat… and several other health issues.

    On this episode I talk about this seldom discussed hormone.

    What it is… why it gets overproduced… and how its levels can be corrected.

    Be sure to give this episode if you deal with stubborn belly fat (or weight gain in general), high blood sugar levels, high blood pressure, inflammatory disease or thyroid issues.

    And, as always, please share it with a friend.

    Thanks!
