    Speaking in Tongues: Revealing the Mystery | Behind The Mike Podcast | Dave, Dewey & Mike

    Speaking in Tongues: Revealing the Mystery | Behind The Mike Podcast | Dave, Dewey & Mike

    Have you ever witnessed the mysterious practice of speaking in tongues and pondered its significance for modern believers? Together with my co-hosts Dave and Dewey, and drawing from my Assemblies of God roots, we tackle the profound nuances of this spiritual expression. We dissect the weighty claim that speaking in tongues is a benchmark of Holy Spirit baptism and how this shapes one's perception of spiritual fulfillment. Through a tapestry of personal anecdotes and theological musings, this conversation seeks to unravel whether this charismatic phenomenon is a hallmark of divine intimacy or a misinterpreted aspect of faith.

    The episode wades through the scriptural sea of speaking in tongues, scrutinizing its original context during Pentecost and Cornelius's encounter, and juxtaposing it against the present-day practice. We shed light on the implications of such experiences and why they should never overshadow the foundation of scriptural truth. As we thread these discussions, the emphasis is on embracing the Gospel's inclusivity and fostering unity amidst Christianity's rich tapestry of worship expression. We invite you to join in on this exploration, share your insights, and enrich the discourse with your unique perspective as we navigate these complex and deeply spiritual waters.

    Reflecting Christ in Marriage: A Divine Bond Explored

    Reflecting Christ in Marriage: A Divine Bond Explored

    As we sit around the microphone, three married guys with 12 to 35 years of wedded bliss under our belts, we've got some things to say about the sacred bond of matrimony. Sharing personal tales and insights, we examine marriage as a divine relationship, an unbreakable bond, hilariously discussing the notion that your spouse 'completes' you. Oh yes, we are talking Jerry-Maguire-level of completion.

    In a world that often distorts the marital ideal, we confront the demons. Fear of commitment, financial benefits overshadowing love, and even debates about wives adopting their husband's last names - they all make an appearance. And let's not forget leadership within a marriage. We're tossing patriarchal distortions out the window and bringing in the Trinity model, a perfect portrayal of equal and willingful cooperation. 

    Finally, we don our philosopher hats, contemplating how a deep understanding of marriage can nurture healthier, more loving relationships. It's all about going back to the roots, the origins of marriage as a reflection of Christ and the Church, and using this understanding to bring about transformation in our own marriages. So, join us on this enlightening journey, packed with wisdom, insights, and a healthy dose of humor. Trust us; you're in for a treat!

    Navigating Halloween: A Christian Perspective on Celebrations and Spiritual Warfare

    Ever wondered how Halloween, a seemingly harmless holiday of costumes and candy, intersects with your faith? Get ready to uncover the intriguing history of Halloween, the controversies that have surrounded it within the Christian community, and the ways we can navigate these complexities with Biblical understanding. From its roots tracing back to All Hallows Day and the Reformation, to its current commercialized state, we'll delve into how this holiday has evolved and its implications for believers. 

    The conversation doesn't stop there. We unravel the contentious topic of spiritual warfare as it relates to Halloween festivities. Are activities like Ouija boards and fortune-telling harmless fun, or potent gateways to spiritual deception? We take a balanced look at these issues, emphasizing respect for diverse opinions within our community, while also highlighting potential opportunities for missionary outreach and education within the celebrations. 

    In the final segment, we tackle the often-misunderstood realm of spiritual warfare and deception. We'll discuss how Satan can subtly influence our lives, even in mundane areas like work, and the crucial role Biblical understanding plays in recognizing and resisting these deceptions. We're not here to provide black-and-white answers, but rather to equip you with discernment and truth to make wise decisions for yourself and your family. Join us for this enlightening exploration into the complexities of Halloween from a Christian perspective.

    REPLAY: Dr. Christopher Yuan: From Substance Abuse to Theology - A Story of Hope and Faith

    What does it look like when someone radically changes their life, challenging societal norms, and embracing a path of faith? Unravel the extraordinary journey of Dr. Christopher Yuan with us. Christopher's story is a testament to what hope and faith can achieve, taking him from a life mired in substance abuse and drug dealing to a path of theological exploration and spreading messages of hope.

With Christopher, we navigate these complex issues, shedding light on the misconceptions about marriage and loneliness. He reassures us that true wholeness comes from a relationship with Jesus Christ, not merely earthly relationships.

    Stay with us till the end as we hint at our upcoming episode featuring the remarkable George Dennehy.

    Bob & Dannah Gresh | "Happily EVEN After" | Healing in Marriage

    Bob & Dannah Gresh | "Happily EVEN After" | Healing in Marriage

    There may have been a time when pornography seemed like just "a guy issue"; something that all guys do. However, we now know that pornography affects the body and brain similarly to heroin.

    Dannah Gresh experienced what many spouses are experiencing today when her husband, Bob, confessed his sexual and porn addiction. Although he was in ministry and did not want to hurt his wife, there was no other way to confess.

    Dannah wavered between hurt, self-loathing, and anger. She settled on the fact that she made a commitment to her husband before God to love him 'for better or for worse' and was committed to help Bob find healing.

    I sat down with Bob & Dannah to discuss their story, which culminated in her new book, "Happily Even After:  Let God Redeem Your Marriage". This is one of the most vulnerable and transparent interviews I've experienced. Because of their willingness to allow us to look into those areas of their life, I believe countless marriages can find the healing that they are experiencing.

    Rebecca George | "Do The Thing" | What is Holding YOU Back?

    Rebecca George | "Do The Thing" | What is Holding YOU Back?

    Maybe there is something deep inside you that wants to step out and begin developing it, but fear, doubt, and unworthiness takes over. Maybe you think you are unqualified or just too busy to pursue that secret dream.

    Rebecca George's new book, "Do The Thing: Gospel-centered Goals, Gumption, and Grace for the Go-Getter Girl" was written to encourage--even challenge you to "DO THE THING"!

    Rebecca is the founder of Radical Radiance® - a podcast community where listeners are equipped to blend what they love with the Jesus who makes them shine. She is a podcaster, speaker, and author whose greatest joy in life is discipling others to pursue their passions in a way that builds the Kingdom. In her free time, you can find her running outside, writing, or trying a new recipe with Garth Brooks playing in the background.

    God has a plan for everyone. Just think, if you don't do what He is calling you do to, He may just allow someone else to do it! Do the thing!

    I sat down with Rebecca to talk about her new book, why she wrote it, and what she hopes to accomplish with it. Rebecca's audience on her podcast, books, and speaking engagements is primarily women. However, this book can, and will, inspire all of us to allow God to do His work in us so we can all Do The Thing.

    Lana Silk | Giving Hope Through 'Transform Iran'

    Lana Silk | Giving Hope Through 'Transform Iran'

    Lana Silk is the daughter of Lazarus and Maggie Yeghnazar who were born and raised in Iran and have served the Iranian Church their whole lives. In the late 1980s, they felt the call of God to move their young family West. This was a decision they wrestled with, as their hearts were tied to Iran and the increasingly persecuted Church there.

    In their own words, “we did not want to abandon our flock”. However, through a series of supernatural interventions, God made it clear to them and to other pastors on their team that He had a different plan for them. In obedience, they left for Europe in 1988.

    Today, their ministry "Transform Iran" (formerly 222 Ministries), has been training leaders to plant churches in 17 nations. Many of those churches are underground congregations in Iran and Afghanistan. Over 100,000 are now following Jesus Christ. They are also discipling these believers.

    Lana joins Mike Stone on "Behind the Mike: Conversation of Hope" to talk about her life as an Iranian who left her homeland for Europe, and eventually the United States. Lana is the CEO of the U.S. for Transform Iran.

    We discuss the negative perception that many Westerners, especially U.S. citizens, have against Iranians and others in the mid-East.

    God has a plan for Iran and Lana and her team at Transform Iran are helping to spearhead this important transformation. Basic needs are being met while the people of Iran risk their lives to wholeheartedly follow Jesus Christ.

    You can be a part of the Ministry of Transform Iran! Listen as Lana shares her heart for spreading the Gospel to the people of Iran, then check out the important links below.

    BONUS 12 - Amanda Valantine | Peace | Morgan Harper Nichols, "Peace is a Practice"

    Is peace something you practice? Or do you see it as more of a feeling? We can all agree that in our world of chaos, peace seems elusive. Peace sounds like a land in a utopian fairy tale. But it doesn’t have to be that way. 

    Amanda Valantine is back with a new episode of Hope Worth Repeating featuring Morgan Harper Nichol’s book, “Peace Is A Practice: An Invitation to Breathe Deep and Find a New Rhythm for Life.” If you need a new rhythm that includes peace, this is a must listen and a must read. Take a break from the chaos, and join Amanda to learn more about practicing peace.
