Kingdom Crossroads Podcast With Pastor Robert Thibodeau

The World Without God TS WrightThere is a growing movement, not just in this nation, but around the world, trying to “devalue” the Word of God and the morality of the Bible. This is not new… it’s actually been going on since time began. Amen! I just have to reference the FALL in the Garden of Eden as exhibit number ONE in my evidence file.Don’t shout me down when I’m preaching good already… amen!Have you seen the erosion of morality, just in the country? Just in the last 25 or 30 years?The movement is to totally remove the Christian influence from society. That is why Christianity is attacked on all fronts as being “offensive.”What would the world be like without God’s Word or God’s Morality? For many, unfortunately, they are about to find out! The soon return of Jesus is near – and THEN they will get their wish.Our guest today is Scott Wright of the “God Centered Concept” podcast and journal of the same name. He is going to help us dive into this topic today. Help me welcome to

Music Transcending the Moment - Damara Melissa Many times, song writers will create music that reflects a major incident that has impacted their life.

LIFE BY DESIGN Mark Collins As believers, sometimes we fall into the trap of comparing ourselves to others. Don’t shout me down when I’m preaching good… amen… It’s true…think about this for a minute… Women will observe what other women are wearing, how they fixed their hair, etc. Men will compare themselves to the success of other men… better cars, better neighborhoods… dream jobs – and more… But believers should not be comparing themselves to anyone… we each have a calling given to us by God. We are called, number one: to be ourselves and, number two: to serve HIM in all that we do. So my calling is not the same as your calling; someone else’s calling – even if it is the same “JOB” – is not the same calling as someone else.  By that, for example, let’s use me… my calling is to “Get the Word Out” – that is our ministry mission statement.  We accomplish the mission by assisting others to “Get the Word Out” about what THEY DO for THEIR CALLING.  Hence, the podcast interviews. There are other Christian po

Sharpening the Spear Richard Walsh pt 2 When I started this ministry and knew it was going to be focused 100% online – I started searching high and low for a way to do it effectively, economically and easily… I had to go through many iterations that disproved ALL of those goals… it was not easy… it was definitely not economically easy and it most definitely was not effective… Amen! That is when I made the decision to hire a coach. Someone who has “Been there and done that.” Yes – it cost me some additional funds… but having someone actually tell you, “Don’t do that – save your money… do this instead…” That advice is priceless. Amen! Looking back over these last 14-15 years…I can attest to the true value of finding a coach who can guide down the path of whatever it is you are trying to do. Whether ministry, business, etc… whatever it is you are doing – you can be better. You can be more efficient. You can be more successful. You can impact more people. In the end – the price you pay up front for that type o

The Happy Trap TS Wright  Have you ever felt trapped before?  It’s not a good feeling, is it? It may have been a situation you were manipulated into, unaware of what was happening… It could have been something you willing did – hoping for a different outcome…but here you are… Maybe you were caught in a “Happy Trap?” What is that Brother Bob?  I’m so glad you asked! Scott Wright is back today and last time he was on, we had a great discussion about the “Fragrance of Jesus.”  There were a lot of interesting things brought out during that discussion… if you missed it, go back to the archives and dig it out. Amen.  But today, Scott is going to share with us information on “The Happy Trap…”  To do that, help me welcome back to the program, our good friend, Scott Wright! Scott, it’s good to have you again – I’ve been looking forward to the conversation today! What in the world is a “Happy Trap?”  Is it good or bad? How does this a

To My Spouse I Write Lloyd Portman I’ve known our guest today for quite some time. He and I joke that we are “twins.” We were born on the same day, only in different time zones and opposite ends of the earth! Amen! Lloyd Portman is a Christian entrepreneur for “down under” in New Zealand. He is the founder of a magnificent website and coaching program called, “To My Spouse I Write.” It is designed to draw couples even closer together in ways that, well – only God can tell. Amen!  Lloyd is an excellent poet and writer – and I know you are going to get a lot out of this interview today… To share all about this great program, help me welcome to the program, my great friend, Lloyd Portman. Lloyd – Praise God, welcome to the show! First question, other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Lloyd Portman?” I know that you were born again milking cows, is that right?  Did a cow kick you in the head and you heard God, or what? You also felt called to the ministry

The King’s Council Rylee Meek Many churches and ministries are struggling to survive since the pandemic – when EVERYTHING was shutdown… but the expenses continued. Amen. Many business owners experienced the same thing and have struggled to adapt and survive as well. It is not unusual for ministries, churches and entrepreneurs to look for ways to save money AND still be a blessing as much as possible as we go about doing Kingdom business. Amen? If you are a Christian entrepreneur seeking to grow your business without compromising your faith; or you strive to keep your Sunday spirit alive from Monday to Saturday, in boardrooms and business meetings or you have a dream to build something meaningful, create a legacy, and you dream of making a difference in the world… If that sounds like you or thoughts you may have had, you will want to pay attention to the episode today. Our guest is going to shine a light that will be a blessing to everyone listening right now. Amen! Rylee Meek is

Ugly Mug Marketing Wayne Mullins If you are in business – especially if you have an online business – it is almost 100% guaranteed you need a website. In this day and time, a website is the “business card” of just about everyone. I remember back the late 1980’s when I had my own business… I knew I was professional looking because I had a great business card!  Amen!  I know I’m showing my age – but if you were doing business back then – you were right there with me!  Amen! If you were pitching a client or prospective client, almost to the person, they would ask, “Do you have a business card?”  You better have one… otherwise, you were considered untrustworthy…  Anyway – fast forward 40 years and here we are today!  If all you have is a business card, you are running way behind the crowd today…  If you are pitching your services to someone, what are they going to ask in today’s business climate?  “Do you have a website?”   If you say, “N

Leadership in Ministry Don PardumHaving been in leadership positions since the ripe old age of 21 when I was in the military… as an E-4 put in charge of a squad of five men… responsibility, leadership, motivation and accomplishment of the mission has been instilled in me for over 40 years.Having answered the call to ministry in 1995 and working for a major national music ministry, handling everything from scheduling, to travel to stage management and production, I soon learned the leadership training in ministry was not something taught in Bible School. I praise God that I had the background in leadership because it served me well in those first few years I was involved in large scale ministry operations.Because of my leadership background, I was quickly identified as a “leader” while at the police academy – and then rose fairly quickly into leadership positions on the department.Once I retired and entered full time ministry on my own – those skills help to keep me focused, on target, and managing

Reigning with Jesus TS Wright Can there be any doubt that we are living in, what the Bible describes as, “The Last Days?” What is especially concerning to me is how the entire world is coming against Israel right now – when all they are doing is reacting to an unprovoked, barbaric attack on innocent civilians. The United Nations is even trying to impose their authority over Israel’s sovereignty!  Just over the last day or so, the UN has “demanded Israel stop all attacks on Rafa and withdraw from the area.”  Three nations came out and “demanded” a “two state solution” – in effect, telling Israel to “surrender” to Hamas. In addition, there is the radical leftists in Congress who also want Israel to surrender and give land to the terrorists… In case you haven’t read your Bible, this is the exact scenario depicted in the Book of the Revelation that will take place in the End Times. If there was ever any doubt that we are living in the last of the last days – what we see ha

Three Proofs of God James Brown Have you ever tried to conduct your own Bible study about timelines in the Bible?  Especially trying to calculate the “Soon Return of Jesus?”  It’s difficult to do… and when you finish – or at least when I finish – my notes are so jumbled, I’m more confused than when I started… Amen! Well, today we are going to have a very special discussion on the soon return of Jesus! We are living in times where many are wondering just how close we are to this pivotal moment.  To help us dive into this topic, I am thrilled to introduce our special guest, James Brown, the esteemed author of "Three Proofs of God." His book provides detailed information on the prophetic timeline of the first coming of Jesus, the timeline of His life, and most intriguingly, the timeline of His soon return.  James has pinpointed exact dates that bring new insights into our understanding of these events. He’s conducted detailed research and I'm excited to get into today's i

Self-Publishing Made Easy Michele DeFilippoHow many of you have traversed the unfriendly seas of self-publishing a book?  I know I have. Being a published author is awesome!  It gives you authority, credibility, etc. It can also give you some extra income, and in some cases – great income! But it can also become a nightmare… Book publishing used to be simple, but not anymore. Authors browsing the internet are unaware that a publisher is unnecessary and that hiring one can significantly reduce their income from book sales. Too many authors become victims of unscrupulous companies that abuse their trust, and some of the worst offenders are "Christian" publishing companies that deliberately target people of faith.  Just remember the warning Jesus gave us, “Beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing.” Amen! That is the reason for our interview today with a woman who is out to change that narrative and actually HELP authors – Christian authors – to navigate those dangerous seas and ar

The Fragrance of Jesus Scott WrightScott Wright is back today and last time he was on, we had a great discussion about the “Anointing of Jesus” – what was involved and the symbology, etc. There were a lot of interesting things brought out during that discussion… if you missed it, go back to the archives and dig it out. Amen.  Today, and we are going to be talking  about some very interesting things which we just “breezed over” during the last program – but are also a very important component of the worship of Jesus – and that is the aroma or “FRAGANCE” of Jesus. What are we talking about, “The Fragrance of Jesus?” Well, to find out, help me welcome back to the program, Scott Wright! Scott, it’s good to have you again – I’ve been looking forward to the conversation today! The Bible discusses the aroma of the offerings and things like that… being a “sweet smell” to God.  Does all this relate to the “Altar of Incense?”  How is the aroma of offerings a worship of

Sparky the Broken Mirror Joe Schimmel Since 1987 Pastor Joe Schimmel has been equipping Christians with the truth of God’s word. His testimony of the transforming power of Jesus Christ in his own life can be seen in his powerful exposé, They Sold Their Souls for Rock n Roll. This presentation has been heard during live presentations at churches around the world in which he describes his own deliverance from the bondage and satanic influence of Rock Music at the age of 18. In addition to the video production, “They Sold Their Souls for Rock & Roll,” Good Fight Ministries has produced other film and television exposés, including “Marvel & DC’s War on God,” and “Hollywood’s War on God,” among others.
