When was the last time you truly questioned the moral boundaries of your culture? What if society's silence in the face of injustice isn't just apathy—it's a warning sign that we're drifting away from meaning and responsibility? This episode dives deep into a chilling biblical story that exposes what happens when everyone does "what's right in their own eyes" and how that same pattern threatens our modern world.

Join us as we explore the horror of judges and moral collapse in Judges 19—a story of a society so broken that even human tragedy becomes normalized. You'll discover how a culture that pushes God out fosters inhumanity, numbness, and loss of sacredness. Through a shocking story of violence, neglect, and societal failure, we break down the warning signs that our own communities might be headed down the same dark path.

We break down essential insights including how moral drift begins with silence, the importance of courageous leadership, and why feelings without God lead to chaos. You'll learn practical ways to stand up against injustice, protect dignity, and become a moral anchor in a drifting world. This isn’t just a biblical lesson—it’s a wake-up call for anyone who cares about the soul of their community.

If you're tired of seeing compassion fade and responsibility disappear, this episode is for you. Perfect for leaders, parents, and anyone ready to take action before society reaches its breaking point. Because the choice to stay silent today could cost us our humanity tomorrow.

Brad offers powerful reflections rooted in Scripture, reminding us that Jesus is the only one who restores what sin destroys. His call to live under Christ’s loving rule could not be more urgent—and more necessary. Tune in and discover how you can be a moral voice in a world that desperately needs hope, courage, and integrity.

Most of us unknowingly walk the path of Cain — sabotaging our worship and growth because of comparison and unresolved jealousy. But what if the key to genuine connection with God and others isn’t talent or effort, but surrender of the heart?

In this episode, you'll discover:

• How comparison subtly sabotages your purpose and relationships
• The crucial difference between routine and heartfelt worship

• Why bitterness and resentment are spiritual predators crouching quietly, waiting to strike
• Practical steps to reset your heart, release jealousy, and deepen your surrender to God

Through this compelling biblical story, Brad offers a fresh perspective on the dangers of internal conflict and teaches you how to realign your heart towards authentic worship and peace. If you’ve ever felt the sting of seeing others succeed or struggled with comparing your journey, this episode is your wake-up call to choose surrender over sabotage.

Perfect for believers seeking a genuine connection with God, or anyone tired of the cycle of jealousy and performance — listen now and start transforming comparison into a catalyst for true worship.
