Joseph Z was just nine years old when he heard the Lord shouting his name from the tree tops on his 1,000 acre ranch. This was the beginning of his journey to discovering his spiritual gift of prophecy. Joseph is the founder of Z Ministries and is also an author, broadcaster, and prophetic voice. This mighty man of God explains the heart of his ministry of prophetic journalism, as well as how important it is not to sensationalize gifts of the spirit or spiritual experiences. He discusses how the Devil has wormed his way into today’s churches. “The Devil couldn’t beat the church,” Joseph explains, “so he joined it.” He encourages everyone to read their Bible and fill themselves daily with the Holy Spirit to discover and sharpen their own giftings.  TAKEAWAYS We need strong, masculine men to raise up our sons in today’s godless society  Breaking Hell’s Economy is Joseph’s newest book that touches on the supernatural provision of the Last Days  The Devil has confused and sensationalized the concept of spiritual gifts among God’s people  Many people who have spiritual giftings may be deceived into believing that they are psychic  🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE  Download the Counter Culture Mom App: http://bit.ly/3d2wSYy  Breaking Hell’s Economy Book: https://amzn.to/3kqHdAV   🔗 CONNECT WITH JOSEPH Z Website: https://josephz.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JosephZLive  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/officialjosephz/?hl=en  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JosephZ  Podcast: http://bit.ly/3H5VqMC  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/OfficialJosephZ/  Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/JosephZLive    🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM  https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageCCM   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2021 Recap & 2022 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCMDonate2021 Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Christians use words every day with reckless abandon, failing to understand what they mean. Janey Pitts is the author of Deeply Defined: Understanding Who You Are in Christ. Janey is also the Missions Mobilizer at New Work Fellowship, and discusses the importance of properly defining words like grace and holiness. Janey explains the delicate balance between doing things for the Lord and simply resting and being still in the Lord. “It’s important sometimes to just stop and BE,” she says. We don’t have to earn the Lord’s love or salvation. However, we are still called to use our gifts to glorify God. You don’t just sit and think about what God is calling you to do - it has to be accompanied by action! TAKEAWAYS Kaphar is a Hebrew word that means to cover, or atone for sin  Grace is when God gives us what we don’t deserve, and mercy is when God doesn’t give us what we do deserve  Salach is a Hebrew word that means to forgive, or to pardon  Obedience means hearing God’s Word and then living it out  🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Book Promo Video: https://bit.ly/3ZyOI90 Kerusso T-shirts (get 15% off with code TINA): http://bit.ly/3SbSJvN  Free Bible Study Discussion Guides: http://bit.ly/3CLtg6I  Deeply Defined Book: https://amzn.to/3ksOSic   🔗 CONNECT WITH JANEY PITTS Website: https://www.janeypitts.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OfficialJaneyPitts/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/officialjaneypitts/  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/coryjane/    🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM  https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageCCM   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2021 Recap & 2022 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCMDonate2021 Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

After Ben Myers tried to capture the attention of his family for a time of Biblical study and worship to no avail, the Lord inspired him to put his theater background to good use. Ben cast his children in the roles of Biblical characters and encouraged them to act out Bible stories, resulting in a three-year process of re-enacting the scriptures together! This journey launched the creation of ActorsBible, an immersive, app-based experience that enables families to act out the Bible from their living rooms. The app includes visuals, dramatic music, a teleprompter script, and even sing-along lyrics. Ben encourages dads to step into their special role of family leadership and “direct” their children and spouse closer to Jesus.  TAKEAWAYS The ActorsBible leads participants through the Bible in 1-3 years  Ben explains how they built a 360 projection dome to create a fully immersive Biblical environment for the app Bringing the Bible to life helps children learn about Jesus and their identity in Christ at a young age and memorize scripture more easily There are spiritual evaluations to assess what lessons families can learn at the end of each Bible story in the app  🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Pastors Abandoning Biblical Worldview: https://bit.ly/3W3hZpj  ActorsBible Video: https://bit.ly/3izPVfx   Inner-City Movement: https://www.icmovement.org/    🔗 CONNECT WITH ACTORS BIBLE Website: https://actors.bible/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/actorsbible  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/actors.bible/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/ACTORSBIBLE1  YouTube: https://bit.ly/3QB21S5   🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM  https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageCCM   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2021 Recap & 2022 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCMDonate2021 Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Many bioethicists making arguments for secular practices like abortion or sex reassignment surgery are actively destroying the sanctity of life because being human, to them, is no longer enough for human rights, according to Nancy Pearcey. Nancy is one of the nation’s most respected female apologists and intellectuals. She has authored a phenomenal book, Love Thy Body, which takes a good, hard look at the confusion surrounding sexuality and humanity in today’s culture. Nancy explains how godless scholars separate humanity from personhood, and why it’s so important to embrace the God-given, harmonious design that He created for sex and sexuality. Nancy reminds us that when we live in harmony with that purpose, we will be happier and healthier.  TAKEAWAYS The godless agenda of transgenderism is targeting young children through television shows and in the public education system If you embrace same-sex relationships, you are implicitly contradicting God’s design for male-female complementarianism Christians need to understand the language of the lost to understand how to present the truth of the gospel There tends to be one underlying secular worldview that underscores issues like abortion, transgenderism, and feminism  🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE  Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/3WgANmo  Love Thy Body Book: https://amzn.to/3iF0nCn   🔗 CONNECT WITH NANCY PEARCEY Website: http://www.nancypearcey.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NancyRPearceyAuthor/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/NancyRPearcey    🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM  https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageCCM   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2021 Recap & 2022 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCMDonate2021 Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Former atheist Dave Glander was at the end of his rope, contemplating suicide, when he challenged God to “do something” about the desperate state of his life as a hopelessly addicted meth user. After weeping while he fell asleep, he felt supernaturally transformed the next morning, and went on a couple week journey to find out who had changed his life. Dave is a pastor, author, and apologist who shares his testimony around the world about his radical transformation through Jesus. Dave discusses how he came to the realization that he was living as if he were God for over three decades and once he gave his life to the one true God, he felt an overwhelming sense of peace. Much of his atheistic beliefs stemmed from public school where Darwinism and evolution were the only beliefs taught. TAKEAWAYS We must present the Bible as factual to our children - not just as a collection of fantastical stories Many youth do not have an interest in Jesus because their questions are being unanswered by their parents and pastors If you don’t know why you believe what you believe, your WHAT is useless What we believe directly affects how we live our lives in these end times 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Worldview Video: https://bit.ly/3FZ3Cxn  Pop Culture Purge Tour: Text the word TOUR to 55444 How Why Where Book: https://bit.ly/3BHmz5c  Faith Survival Guide: https://bit.ly/3hrNX0o  Did Jesus Commit Suicide?

A worldview is the conceptual lens through which we see and interpret the world around us and understand our place in it. According to Tawa Anderson, a Biblical worldview is absolutely essential in a Christian’s life, but so many people don’t realize how powerfully their worldviews are intertwined with their day-to-day living behaviors. More importantly, these behaviors might not line up with scripture. Tawa is an Associate Professor of Philosophy and Apologetics and the author of the book, An Introduction to Christian Worldview. He shares his perspective on the impact of individual worldviews and presents his thoughts about the hit Christian series The Chosen, centered on the life of Jesus.  TAKEAWAYS It’s hard, but not impossible, to lead someone to salvation who doesn’t realize that they are lost  We need to understand and analyze the worldviews around us so we know how to share Jesus with those that have different beliefs We must constantly compare our current views with what scripture says to make sure they align A Biblical worldview should include reflection, adjustment, an analysis of behavior, culture shaping, and an understanding of personal values 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE The Chosen Trailer: https://bit.ly/3CdSkDr  Watch The Chosen Series: https://bit.ly/3XfduJl Worldview Bible Study From Summit Ministries: https://bit.ly/3FwK56d  Answers in Genesis (get 10% off with code AIGCCM10): https://bit.ly/AIGCCM  An Introduction to Christian Worldview Book: https://amzn.to/3Xro4wV Why Believe Book: https://amzn.to/3QDAAHe Generation Why Conference: https://bit.ly/3PGlQqL    🔗 CONNECT WITH TAWA ANDERSON Website: http://tawapologetics.blogspot.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tawa.anderson  Twitter: https://twitter.com/TawaAnderson    🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM  https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/FPMCCMshow   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageCCM   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2021 Recap & 2022 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCMDonate2021 Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/
