I have heard a lot about the so-called "New Apostolic Reformation" and self-proclaimed apostles walking around and giving out new revelation and performing miracles. But do they measure up to what the Bible says? Stick around and find out from Dr. J today!

Some people think of themselves as victims, as prisoners, as hopeless waifs. Change the metaphor in your life. Instead of thinking of yourself as a slave or peasant or tyrant, think of yourself as a freeman. Dr. J breaks down for us what it means to be a freeman in today's culture.

Remember the true story of Jim Jones and how his 900 followers drank cyanide-laced grape Kool-aid? If his followers had only seen in the Bible how to spot false prophets, they may have escaped. The Bible gives us clear direction on how to detect these hucksters...by what they say...and by what they do. Tune in so you can see through these counterfeits!

On the way to ballet, my ten year old wanted me to tell her a story. Of course I only told her true stories of great courage and determination. The Battle of Midway is one of those stories to remind us all that it is always too soon to give up, and to never doubt that there is a God.

Have you ever been betrayed? I have. Several times in fact! How do you deal with the pain of betrayal? There is a way forward. I hope you are encouraged by my story today.

I grew up in a household of screaming and yelling, chaos and addictions. It was not "Leave It to Beaver" or "Father Knows Best." But God used two things to motivate me to change my life at a young age: pain and hatred. (Later he added two other emotions: love and gratitude, but we'll talk about that later.) He can take the pain and the hatred you feel today to make a good and lasting change in your life, just like he did for me. Stay tuned; there is more than just one episode in this story.

I was talking to a young man (he's in the fourth grade) and he asked me what I thought about George Washington. Here are five things I think he could learn from the Father of Our Country: courage, ambition, seriousness, self-control, and integrity. In our self-made "crisis of masculinity" these days, George Washington is still a wonderful real man for boys to imitate!

"Stand your ground, don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here." The immortal words of American patriot, Captain John Parker as he stood on Lexington green that morning that heard "the shot heard 'round the world." What lessons do we learn from this clash between the might of the British Crown, and American farmers? Plenty! Tune in and enjoy!
