The Truth Exchange

Welcome to today's episode, where we explore one of the most profound stories in history: Easter and the story of Jesus. This story is filled with themes of hope, sacrifice, and renewal. Join us as we dive into the events leading up to Easter, uncover the meaning behind Jesus's resurrection, and discuss how this story continues to inspire millions around the world. In today episode: Matthew 28:1-7, John 11:25, 1 Corinthians 15, Galatians 2:20, 1 Corinthians 15:55, Hebrews 2:14.

Today we’re diving into a powerful theme that many of us wrestle with but don’t always say out loud—what it means to hold on to faith when life isn’t going the way we hoped. In 2017, the band MercyMe released a song that captured this tension beautifully. Written during a season of struggle, it speaks to the space between believing God can change things and trusting Him even when He doesn’t. It’s easy to have faith when everything is going well. It’s harder when the answers don’t come, when the mountain doesn’t move, and when we’re left standing in the fire. But real faith isn’t about winning every battle—it’s about where we place our hope when we’re losing. In this episode, we’ll talk about faith that endures, trust that remains steady in uncertainty, and the courage it takes to say, even if things don’t change, God is still enough. If you’re walking through a difficult season or questioning what faith looks like right now, this conversation is for you. In this episode: Hebrews 11, Luke 9:23, Philippians 1:21, Romans 8:29, Habakkuk 3.

Join us on a special edition of the Podcast as our guest, Rachel Elledge, tells her story. Through a fifteen-year battle with drug addiction, jail and prison she preservers through the love of God. Hear how an encounter with our Lord and Savior saved Rachel's life. And put her on a journey to honor him through her life and work.

In a world filled with noise, confusion, and constant pressure, many of us sense that the real battles we face go deeper than what we can see. Scripture reminds us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against unseen spiritual forces that seek to deceive, accuse, and pull us away from the truth. The Bible warns us to stay alert—because our adversary prowls like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. But it also gives us hope, clarity, and a strategy. God has not left His people defenseless. In this podcast, we’ll explore the devil’s schemes—how deception, accusation, and temptation operate in everyday life—and, more importantly, how believers can stand firm. We’ll talk about what it means to put on the full armor of God: to walk in truth and righteousness, to raise the shield of faith, to wield the Word of God, and to live a life anchored in prayer. In this episode: 1 Peter 5:6-8, 2 Corinthians 4:4, Colossians 2:15, Jermiah 3, Romans 10:13, 2 Corinthians 10:5, Ephesians 6:11-18, 1 John 4:4, 1 John 1:9.

The apostle Paul reminds us that the enemy blinds the minds of unbelievers to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel—the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. But the same God who once said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” still shines today—revealing His glory in the face of Jesus. In this episode, we’ll talk about that light… and about the heart. The Bible describes the heart as the center of who we are—the place where our thoughts, desires, faith, joy, and even our words are formed. And it also warns us of something sobering: when sin goes unconfessed, the heart can grow hard. Over time, it becomes desensitized, even unable to recognize truth. We’ll reflect on the danger of willful sin, the hope found in confession, and the power of persistent prayer—like praying for a wayward friend for decades, trusting that one day God may finally turn on the light. Because if salvation is truly a miracle of God, then no prayer is wasted—and no heart is beyond His reach. In this episode: 2 Peter 2:14, Jude verse 6, Romans 5:8, Ephesians 2:8-9, 2 Corinthians 5:17, 1 Timothy 1:16, Psalm 19:13, 1 Corinthians 1:4, Romans 5:20.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we dive into the fascinating world of Mormonism—the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Founded in the 1830s by Joseph Smith, Mormonism claims to be the restored church after a period of apostasy, with roots in early Christian traditions and a story that begins with a young seeker’s prayer in rural Vermont. With over 16 million members worldwide, Mormonism stands out for its high level of commitment. We’ll unpack what it means to be a Mormon, the concept of progressing toward godhood, and the church’s view on grace, effort, and saving ordinances. In this episode: James 1:5, Revelation 22, Deuteronomy 4, Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 5:8, John 3:16, Galatians1, John 1:1-3, Romans 10:9-10.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we dive into some of the most pressing and controversial questions shaping our society. We’ll explore the question, “What is a woman?”—a topic that has sparked heated debates in Congress, the Supreme Court, and across the media landscape. We’ll revisit Dr. Nisha Verma’s viral testimony on abortion rights, examine recent Supreme Court hearings on trans women in sports, and reflect on the challenges faced by experts and lawmakers alike when asked to define gender in today’s world. Later in the episode, we’ll shift our focus to recent turmoil in Minnesota, including allegations of fraud, ICE operations, and protests that have tested the boundaries of civil rights and religious freedom. We’ll unpack the legal and ethical implications of the FACE Act, and hear stories of individuals whose actions and beliefs have landed them in the national spotlight. In this episode: Genesis 1:27, Matthew 18, Gal 6, Hebrews 4:15, 2 Corinthians 5.

Welcome to our podcast, where we explore the journey of faith, character, and self-discovery. In today’s episode, we’ll dive into the nature of temptation—what it means, where it comes from, and how we can overcome it. Drawing from the wisdom of James, we’ll discuss why temptation isn’t something sent by God, but rather a challenge that arises from our own desires. We’ll talk about the importance of self-control, personal responsibility, and the path to spiritual growth. Join us as we unpack these lessons and discover practical ways to live a life of purpose and integrity. In this episode: James 1:13-15, James 1:2-12, Genesis 22:1-14, 2 Chronicles 22, Genesis 39:1-20.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we explore one of the most powerful moments of grace and redemption in the Bible—the story of the thief on the cross, found in Luke 23:39-43. As Jesus hung between two criminals, a remarkable exchange unfolded: one mocked, but the other, in his final moments, reached out in faith and was promised paradise. This story isn’t just about a dramatic last-minute transformation; it’s a profound lesson in hope, faith, and the boundless nature of forgiveness. We’ll dive into how this encounter shows that no one is ever beyond redemption, that true belief can arise even in the darkest circumstances, and that courage sometimes means standing alone for what’s right. Most importantly, we’ll reflect on how salvation is a gift—offered not because of our deeds, but through faith and grace. In this episode: Luke 23:39-43, Ephesians 2:8-9, 2 Corinthians 5:8.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we dive into one of the most thought-provoking phrases from the New Testament: “Faith without works is dead.” This powerful statement, found in James 2:17, challenges us to consider whether belief alone is enough, or if true faith must be accompanied by tangible actions. We’ll explore the scriptural foundation of this idea, starting with James’ direct question: “What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?” The conversation doesn’t stop there—Ephesians 2:8-10 reminds us that while we are saved by grace through faith, we are also created for good works, prepared in advance for us to do. In this episode: James 2:14-26, 2 Corinthians 10:5, John 3:16, Ephesians 2:8-10, Matthew 7:22-23, Titus 3:5, Philippians 2.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we explore one of the most distinctive religious movements of the modern era—Jehovah’s Witnesses. With roots tracing back to the late 19th century, this group has grown to over 9 million members worldwide, all united by a commitment to evangelism and a strict moral code. Today, Jehovah’s Witnesses are known for their non-trinitarian theology, their unique modified version of the Bible—the New World Translation—and their belief in one true God, Jehovah.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we explore one of life’s most profound questions: How do we know God is there? Throughout history, people have searched for answers, and in this episode, we’ll look at three powerful ways that God is said to reveal Himself: through creation, through His Word, and through His Son, Jesus Christ. We’ll consider the evidence found in the world around us—the intricate design of nature, the complexity of DNA, and the universal sense of morality and worship that connects humanity across cultures. We’ll also discuss how the Bible treats God’s existence as self-evident, and how the life and resurrection of Jesus Christ offer historical testimony. In this episode: Romans 1:20, Romans 2, Psalms 19:1, 2 Corinthians 4:4, Matthew 5, Matthew 16:26.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we dive deep into the transformative message of Romans 12:1–2. The apostle Paul urges us to offer our lives as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, and to resist being shaped by the patterns of this world. What does it truly mean to be “in the world, but not of the world”? How can we renew our minds and live out God’s will in a culture that often pulls us in the opposite direction? We’ll explore not only Paul’s words, but also insights from 1 Peter and Psalms, drawing connections to the everyday challenges of faith. Join us as we unpack these timeless truths, discover practical ways to live differently, and find encouragement to stand firm in a world that’s always changing.

We’ll walk through the foundation of the Gospel story: Creation, the Fall, Redemption and Restoration. We’ll also discuss the power of prayer—how it transforms our hearts, gives us boldness, and fills us with love for those around us.

In this episode: Colossians 4, Romans 9:1-3, Romans 10:1, Ephesians 6, 1 Peter 3:15, Romans 10:14-15, Acts 2, Luke 2.

Welcome to today's episode, where we draw inspiration from one of the most powerful parables ever told—the story of the prodigal son. Imagine a young man who, driven by restlessness and desire, leaves behind the comfort of home to pursue his own path. Along the way, he faces hardship, regret, and ultimately, the longing to return to where he truly belongs. But at the heart of his journey is not just the leaving, but the extraordinary welcome he receives upon his return—a reminder that forgiveness, growth, and second chances are always possible. In this podcast, we'll explore the themes of wandering, discovery, and coming home—both to ourselves and to those who love us. Whether you see yourself in the prodigal, the father, or even the brother, this timeless tale offers wisdom and hope for us all. So settle in, open your heart, and let's begin our journey together with the lessons of the prodigal son. In this episode: Luke 15:1-7, Luke 15:11-32, Luke 15:8-10.

Welcome to today's episode, where we dive deep into a foundational aspect of Christian faith: the presence and work of the Holy Spirit in our lives. As Billy Graham ministries reminds us, “There is not a person anywhere who can be a Christian without the Holy Spirit. There is not a person who can follow Christ without the help of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit sees everything that goes on. He knows what goes on in our hearts. He knows what goes on in our minds. Nothing is hidden from Him.” In this episode, we'll explore the powerful question: When do we receive the Holy Spirit? We'll turn to Scripture for insight and uncover the significance of being sealed by the Holy Spirit, His role as comforter, counselor, and advocate, and what it means for our daily walk with Christ. Get ready for an inspiring conversation about the Spirit who empowers, guides, and transforms us from within. In this episode: John 14 and 16, Ephesians 1, Acts 2:38, John 15:26, John 16:14, Galatians 5:22-23, Acts 16:11-15, Acts 16:6-10.

Welcome to today's episode, where we dive into two of the most influential theological systems in Christian history: Calvinism and Arminianism. These traditions have helped shape the beliefs and debates within Protestant Christianity, focusing on one of faith's deepest mysteries—how God's sovereignty interacts with human responsibility, especially in the matter of salvation. In this episode: 2 Corinthians 5:21, John 3:16, Romans 9:1, Romans10, Isaiah 55:8-9, Ephesians 2.

Whether you’re new to this concept or have been on your own spiritual journey for years, this show is designed to shed light on the nature of spiritual warfare, equipping you with practical insights and timeless wisdom to recognize, understand, and overcome the challenges that arise on the battlefield of the soul.

Today, we’re diving deep into the heart of the gospel and unpacking its relevance in a world full of moral ambiguity, shifting standards, and conflicting worldviews. Inspired by the words of Alistair Begg, we'll discuss how the gospel calls each of us to make a personal decision—one that leads to true transformation and lasting change. Throughout this episode, we'll explore how Jesus’ teachings provide a clear foundation on the truth of being a Christian. We'll also talk about the personal struggles people face—guilt, shame, addiction, broken relationships, and emptiness—and how faith in Christ brings healing, renewal, and a new identity as children of God. In this episode: John 6:66, 2 Corinthians 13:5, Matthew 7:22-23, Romans 10, John 14:15, Philippians 2:12-13, 2 Corinthians 5.

From the majesty of the heavens to the smallest acts of kindness, all creation reflects the work of God’s hands. As Psalm 19:1 proclaims, “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.” If the universe exists to display His glory, how much more so do we, His most cherished creation? Join us as we unpack practical ways to live with excellence, integrity, and compassion—turning daily moments into acts of worship. Inspired by scriptures like 1 Corinthians 10:31, “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God,” we’ll discover together how our lives can mirror God’s love to the world. In this episode: Genesis 1:27, Genesis 2:7, Psalm 139:13-14, 1 Corinthians 13:6, Ephesians 2:10, Romans 5:12, 1 Corinthians 10:31, Psalm 19:1.

Welcome to our podcast, where we dive deep into faith, culture, and the challenges Christians face in today’s rapidly changing world. In an age marked by rapid change, moral ambiguity, and cultural shifts, believers are increasingly confronted with the challenge of standing firm on biblical truth. We explore the pressures Christians experience—from social media to political polarization and evolving societal values—that often push us to compromise or stay silent about our convictions. We’ll unpack the biblical foundations of truth, discuss the unique obstacles of our modern environment, and provide practical guidance for living out your faith with courage and clarity. Join us as we navigate the complexities of today’s world together, seeking wisdom and the strength to stand unwavering on the truths of Scripture. In this episode: John 14:6, John 17:17, Ephesians 4:15, Matthew 5:24-29, John 8:44 Romans 1:18, Dan 6.

In today’s world, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by uncertainty and challenges. But as Christians, we hold onto a promise that is greater than anything we face—a living hope through Jesus Christ. This hope isn’t a wishful thought or fleeting optimism; it’s rooted in God’s love, His faithfulness, and the resurrection of Jesus. It’s a hope that sustains us, empowers us, and transforms our outlook on life. In this podcast, we’ll explore what it means to have a living hope and discover practical ways to hold onto this hope in every season. Together, we’ll be encouraged to trust God’s promises, embrace His presence, and shine His light in a hurting world. In this episode: Romans 5, Jeremiah 29:11-13, 1 Peter 1:3, Philippians 3:20, Titus 2:13, 2 Corinthians 11:23-28, 1 Corinthians 2:9.

Join us on today's episode as we tackle life’s anxieties and discover how faith can transform our worries into peace. Did you know that millions of Americans struggle with anxiety and stress, and many turn to medication for relief? But what if there’s a deeper solution? Today, we’ll explore timeless wisdom from Matthew 6, where Jesus tells us three times: “Do not worry.” Why does He emphasize this so much? Because worrying doesn’t add a single moment to our lives—in fact, it often does the opposite. We’ll talk about how worry is futile, how God knows our needs, and why faith is the antidote to anxiety. In this episode: Matthew 4:15-16, Matthew 6:25-34, Philippians 4:6-7, Romans 8:28, Colossians 3, Psalm 41, Philippians 4:8.

In today's episode, we concentrate on eschatology, the study of the end times. In today's episode, we will explore the concept of tribulation as described in Revelation chapters 6-18, and discuss the various interpretations of the rapture. Most importantly, we'll reflect on the sovereignty of God, His divine plan, and how He will be glorified through these events. Join us as we unpack these complex and fascinating topics and consider the implications for our faith and understanding of the end times. In this episode:1 Corinthians 15, Revelation 3:10, Matthew 25, 2 Corinthians 5, 1 Corinthians 3.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we dive into one of the most profound themes found throughout the Bible: God’s grace. Unlike human love, which can be conditional or based on merit, God’s grace is an unearned gift—a powerful expression of His unwavering love for humanity. Even in our moments of weakness, failure, and imperfection, grace shines through, offering hope and redemption when we need it most. Join us as we explore how divine favor operates amid human frailty, drawing on inspiring biblical stories to reveal God’s compassion and redemptive power in imperfect situations. In this episode: Matthew 6:14-15, Ephesians 2:8-10, Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, Titus 3.

In today’s episode, we dive deep into the topic of biblical sex—what it means, why it matters, and how it’s designed to be a blessing within the covenant of marriage. In a world where cultural views on sexuality often clash with faith, we’ll explore God’s original intent and how it’s meant to bring joy, protection, and purpose to our lives. We’ll look at the foundational scriptures, starting in Genesis, where God brings Adam and Eve together, establishing marriage as a sacred union. We’ll discuss how sex is more than just a physical act—it’s a gift from God to be celebrated, enjoyed, and guarded, serving three powerful purposes: procreation, pleasure, and protection. As we unpack key passages from Proverbs, Psalms, and Hebrews, you’ll hear how obedience to God’s word leads to true fulfillment, while stepping outside His design can result in chaos and heartache. We’ll also confront the damaging effects of pornography and other cultural extremes and offer practical wisdom for honoring marriage and God’s boundaries. In this episode: Genesis 1:27, Genesis 2:24-25, Romans 16:19, Proverbs 5:19, Job 31:1, 1 Corinthians 6:18, 1 Corinthians 7:2-5, John 8:3-11, 1 Corinthians 5:9-11.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we honor the memory of Charlie Kirk—a voice of conviction, a cofounder of Turning Point USA, and a steadfast advocate for conservative principles on campuses across the nation. Known for his unwavering faith and his commitment to making an impact, Charlie inspired countless listeners as a podcast host and as a devoted follower of Christ. Tragically, Charlie’s journey was cut short at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, during an event for his American Comeback Tour. He leaves behind a legacy of courage, faith, and action, as well as his beloved wife Erika and their two children. His final days were marked by powerful words, including his recent tweet: “Jesus defeated death so you can live.” Join us as we reflect on Charlie’s life, his mission, and the fearless spirit with which he approached every challenge. This is a space to remember, to learn, and to carry forward the message that meant so much to him: “Jesus is honestly the most important thing.” In this episode: Romans 12, Psalm 13, Revelation 6:9-11, Matthew 22:37-39, Ephesians 4:15, 1 Corinthians 13:6, Psalm 126:5, Acts 8, 1 Corinthians 15:55, Ephesians 6:11-12, John 15:12-13.

Join us today as we finalize our two-part series on Progressive Christianity. On this episode we focus on what to look for, how to prevent false doctrine from seeping into our Churches and how to discuss this topic within your Church groups. In light of these considerations, progressive Christianity stands as a controversial movement that continues to challenge established beliefs and generate debate. As such, progressive Christianity remains a topic of concern for those who seek to uphold the integrity and unity of Christian doctrine. In this episode: James 3:1, Matthew 28:18-20, Colossians 3, 1 Corinthians 11:1, 2 Corinthians 5, Jude 1:4, Genesis 3.

Progressive Christianity has emerged as a controversial movement, challenging long-held beliefs and often sparking debate. This movement undermines the authority of scripture, focusing more on human perspectives than divine truth. Its tendency to dissect and reinterpret biblical texts can lead to confusion and division. Progressive Christianity remains a subject of concern for those who value the integrity and unity of traditional Christian doctrine. In this episode: 1 Corinthians 9:1, Acts 9:15, Acts 2:43, 2 Corinthians 12:12, 2 Corinthians 11:13, Acts 13:2, Philippians 2:25, Jude 1:3, Genesis 3:1.

Join us on today's episode as we finish our series on the Habits of Grace. Today our focus is on giving, gathering and serving. In this episode: 2 Corinthians 9:7-8, Mark 10:45, 1 Corinthians 12 and 14, Ephesians 4, Matthew 28:19, Philippians 2:12-13, 1 Peter 4:10.

When you heard the gospel and repented and became born again, the Bible says you became a new Christian, a newborn in Christ. When a person comes by faith to Christ, and receives a new heart and a new spirit, they are meant to start growing in their faith. "Habits of grace" refer to spiritual practices that help Christians grow in their faith and deepen their relationship with God through prayer, scripture, and community. Today we will discuss reading the bible, prayer and fasting and evangelism. In this episode: 2 Timothy 4:6-8, Genesis 3:1, Mark 4, 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Romans 8:28.

In Matthew 28:19, Jesus instructs his disciples to "make disciples of all nations". Disciples are fully devoted followers of another. It is more than a teacher student relationship. The disciple is to become more and more like the leader, which is a process. In today's episode we begin to look at the process and discuss how to become a disciple. In this episode: Matthew 28:19-20, Luke 14:27, Philippians 2:12, Luke 9:23, Matthew 5, 1 Corinthians 15:10.

Our four-week study of Paul comes to an end today. We are reminded of his words in 2 Timothy 4:6-8: “For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that Day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.” Paul was a driven Apostle to the very end. Join us as we discuss being committed to Christ in a fallen world. In this episode: Psalms 118:24, Romans 16:19, 2 Timothy 4:6-18, Philippians 1:21.

The blood of the Martyrs was the fuel that helped to spread God's word to the nations. Today we look towards the end of Paull's missionary journeys and discuss our trip to Rome, as we followed in the footsteps of Paul. In this episode: Acts 1:8, Acts 28, Acts 7:54-60, Acts 8:1-4, Acts 2:14-36, Philippians 1:12-13, Hebrews 11:35-40, Acts 4:19-20, Romans 8:38-39.

Today we continue our discussion on Paul The Missionary. We follow Paul's trip through Athens, Corinth and Ephesus. Along the way we see Mars Hill, the Parthenon, the City of Ephesus and many other sites. In this episode: Acts 17:16-33, Acts 18:8-11, Acts 19:29-31.

In June of this year, Kenneth and Harper and over sixty others, traveled to Greece, Turkey and Rome to follow the footsteps of Paul. Our journey took us to many locations that are featured in the bible. Today we will begin our discussion on Paul's role as one of the most prominent Christian Missionaries the world has ever seen. In this episode: Matthew 28:18-20, Mark 16:15, Luke 24, Acts 1:8, Acts 13:2-3, Ephesians 2:8-9, Titus 3:4-5, Romans 5:1, 1 Corinthians 2:9, Philippians 1:21.

In Matthew 7:1-5 Jesus warns believers to examine their own hearts before pointing out the faults of others. But, in this age of cultural confusion, the phrase "Judge Not" has become a way to shut down uncomfortable conversations. Join Kenneth and Harper as they dive into Matthew 7:1-5 and the actual meaning of these verses. In this episode: Matthew 7:1-5, Matthew 19:16-22, Matthew 23, Matthew 14:1-12, Acts 18:15-20, 1 Corinthians 5:1-5, 1 Corinthians 5:11-13, Galatians 6:1-5.

Today's culture tells us that we exist to be happy. To glorify ourselves and bring as much attention to ourselves as we can. The bible tells us a different story. 1 Corinthians 8:6 tells us that all things are from God, and we exist for God. Join us on today's episode as we consider the question, Why Am I here? In this episode: 1 Corinthians 8:6, Luke 9:23, John 14:6, 1 Corinthians 10:31, Psalm 139:14, John 3:6.

The phrase "Love your neighbor as yourself" originates from Leviticus 19:18 in the Bible and emphasizes the importance of treating others with the same care and respect that one would wish for oneself. Anyone who does not have a personal relationship with God through the Lord Jesus Christ will die in his sins and face eternity in hell. We owe it to our neighbors to lovingly share with them the good news of the gospel. True believers have been forgiven, possess eternal life, and have blessings forever as the result of others who have shared the gospel with them. God’s love is evidenced in us as we communicate the gospel and love others as we have been loved. In this episode: Matthew 22:37-40, 1 Corinthians 13:6, Romans 1:32, Matthew 19:1-6, Romans 6:23, John 8:1-11, Luke 15:11-32, Galatians 5:14, 1 Corinthians 13:4-7.

Many times, when we talk to people about God’s love, their response seems to resemble human love more than God’s love. Unlike human love, God’s love is sacrificial, perfect and leads to life. The bible tells us to “Love the Lord your God with all of your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.” This type of love leads us to love others as God loves us. We see an example of Gods love in John 3:16. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” Join us as we discuss God’s love and how it can change our lives. In this episode: Deuteronomy 6:4-5, Romans 5:8, Matthew 22:37, 2 Corinthians 4:4, Isaiah 55, John 3:16.

Matthew 28:19-20 Is commonly known as the Great Commission. It could as easily be known as A Rescue Mission.
