879: The First Wave // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 31 (Eric Ludy) Aug 22, 2022

Show notes

This is the thirty-first installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode explores the beginnings of the Battle of the Somme (July 1,, 1916) —one of the most disturbing experiences the British endured in the entirety of WW1. 60,000 British were lost in a single day. And most of those were lost in the passage of a few minutes. Each of us faces trials like the Somme, and there is a significant spiritual lesson to be learned in the folds of its history.

878: Room 40 // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 30 (Eric Ludy) Aug 19, 2022

Show notes

This is the thirtieth installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode dives into one of the most intriguing parts of the war—the espionage, codebreaking part. The work of British Naval Intelligence is renowned and considered the greatest spy work in world history. But, part of its secret was how humble and hidden it was—doing world-changing work while cloistered in an unpretentious location known as Room 40.

877: The Core of Corinth // Soul Drift 19 (Nathan Johnson) Aug 18, 2022

Show notes

The ancient city of Corinth was drowning in idolatry, sexual perversion, and pride. Several years after Paul ministered in the city, he wrote a corrective letter to that church exhorting them to turn to Jesus and quit living like the city around them. In this message, Nathan gives an overview of the city and church in ancient Corinth, the core message of 1Corinthians, and explains how Paul’s exhortation to Corinth is the same message we need to hear today.

876: Voie Sacrée // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 29 (Eric Ludy) Aug 17, 2022

Show notes

This is the twenty-ninth installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode explores another side of the infamous battle of Verdun (the longest battle in history). Early in the battle, the Germans cut off all French supply lines—all but one, that is. The one supply line that was left to the French was a small country road known in history as La Voie Sacrée (the Sacred Road). This one lone road supplied for all the heroic labor at the front. In the Christian life is it important that we caretake for our Sacred Road in the same manner the French cared for theirs in the darkest hours of WW1.

875: Naming Idols // Soul Drift 18 (Nathan Johnson) Aug 16, 2022

Show notes

Idolatry doesn’t have to be a mysterious, abstract, or elusive concept. Scripture makes it clear what idols are and if we desire to be free from them, we must start by naming our idols. In this message, Nathan freshly talks about idolatry and gives several helpful illustrations and questions for us to be able to recognize and name our idols—so that we can repent of them and walk in freedom.

874: The Zone Rouge // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 28 (Eric Ludy) Aug 15, 2022

Show notes

This is the twenty-eighth installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode explores the longest battle in world history known as the Battle of Verdun. 300,000 died in 300 days. It was an epic tragedy that destroyed the once-lovely territory of Verdun turning it into a dead zone—a zone rouge. This proves an incredible parallel with our spiritual lives. God desires to take our dead territory and reclaim it for His glory.

873: Big Tough // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 27 (Eric Ludy) Aug 12, 2022

Show notes

This is the twenty-seventh installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode looks at the ANZAC (the Australian/New Zealand Army Corps) in WW1. In April 1915 they received their first commission. It was an impossible one—Gallipoli. Everything went wrong on the mission and the ANZAC were stuck in a miserable situation for eight long months. But instead of moaning, groaning, complaining, and crying—they did something altogether unexpected. They laughed.

872: The Altar of the Heart // Soul Drift 17 (Nathan Johnson) Aug 11, 2022

Show notes

We all have an altar in our lives upon which we continually offer sacrifices and worship—our hearts. In this message, Nathan not only discusses the key problem with our hearts as altars but gives the simple solution for how our hearts can be places of worship and sacrifice unto God alone.

871: The Rise of Pancho // Spiritual Lessons from WW1 26 (Eric Ludy) Aug 10, 2022

Show notes

This is the twenty-sixth installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode explains the elaborate art of distraction that the Kingdom of Darkness wields as one of its chief military schemes against the Church of Jesus Christ. Just like Kaiser Wilhelm II (Germany’s King during WW1) waged a distraction campaign against the United States (from 1914-1916) in an attempt to keep the U.S. “otherwise occupied” with Mexico instead of involving themselves with stopping Germany’s aggression in Europe—so our ancient foe, the Devil, does the same thing with us. Let’s not be ignorant of the enemy’s schemes.

870: Altered Altars // Soul Drift 16 (Nathan Johnson) Aug 09, 2022

Show notes

Altars have been used throughout history as a place to commune with God, sacrifice to Him, and worship. But altars have also been the place where idolatry is celebrated. In this message, Nathan discusses seven aspects of altars throughout Scripture, reveals the greatest altar ever found, and talks about our need for an altered altar.
