thefreedomhour's Podcast

This may be one of my personal favorite Freedom Hour interviews. I love every single one of them so it is hard to, nor do I ever want to choose a favorite. Jolie's story, however touched me personally in many ways, much like my Wonder Woman episode with Cheryl and my One Hot Cheerleader episode with Brooke. I guess it is because I identify with the pain and shame game Satan uses on women, especially on mothers. Oooh, I feel a blog coming on, now I'm getting mad at the devil all over again and I'm going to rant! Check out my blog and see if I carry on my rant: http://thefreedomhour.typepad.com/reflections_of_the_freedo/

In any case, you don't want to miss this episode!! Jolie shares her story in a raw, vulnerable and completely transparent way. This was not easy for her. The courage of my guests always inspires me!

After you listen, send me an email and let me know how Jolie's story touched you so I can let her know that sharing her story with the world is already helping to set someone else free! It will mean a lot to her to know that YOU were deeply touched as well!

IDENTITY - Who am I? Am I the fat kid? Am I the ugly one? Am I the dumb one? Does anyone see me? Do I blend in and disappear? Who am I?

The Enemy convinced Jason he had no identity, God showed Jason his true identity.

God gives Jason the ultimate Extreme Makeover!

Brandon Lloyd shares his life story from his traumatic childhood as a choir boy with the Texas Boys Choir to his rock and roll band days that kept his anger repressed through drugs and alcohol. In a state of vast inebriation his inhibitions are erased and he makes a choice that will turn his life completely upside down.

If you are struggling to find reasons to be thankful this year, then this is the show for you!!! Listen to Jane as she reflects on the long and difficult road she and her son Derek walked. As Jane reads to us the Thanksgiving letter she just received from Derek, FROM PRISON, allow his words to put your world in perspective. I know I am more thankful today because I have met Jane and I have listened to Derek's words!

Have a Joyful and Blessed Thanksgiving!

Do you struggle with forgiveness? Listen to Grace talk about ultimate human forgiveness! Learn about God's unfailing grace and mercy through the mercy of Grace!

Actually, Devon found more than gold - he found God! Devon's journey is amazing, but it is also very normal for many all-American guys. More normal than you might think. He spirals out of control before an unshakable emptiness cause him to start the search. Trucks, Utah and rainbows changed his life. I'll let him tell you the rest...

This is a replay of our show with Marcus Hill. If you listened to last week's show with Jay Dan Gumm, this rerun will help you put it all together.

Don't forget to go to our website and vote on who you think Marcus looks like (Cuba Gooding, Jr? Michael Clark Duncan? Neither?). Watch our website in the coming weeks for the details of how this little contest will be used to bless others!

Gateway drugs - beer, pot, even cigarettes. You've heard us talk about this on the show before. Parents - PLEASE LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE!!! Jay Dan Gumm grew up in church, in a private Christian school where his mother taught, he was a star athlete and still Jay Dan fell into the trap of peer pressure and it spiraled out of control from there, until he cried out to God from solitary confinement in prison.

Bill is such a gracious and humble man. His brand new book, Lessons From San Quentin is truly one of the most profound books I've read - YOU must read it!! Listen to this show for a quick recap, but it doesn't scratch the surface of the book.

We are rerunning this show today as Ron Cummings testimony is such great evidence of what Dr. Rob Randall has been teaching us the last few weeks. Ron's is a story of pain, hell, demonic nightmares, prison escape and final freedom. Listen through to the end, there is a surprise guest with Ron! Talk about restoration - shew! This one is "off the chain!" (as my pastor, Ed Young, would say)

Cynthia starts at the beginning when she was adopted by her babysitter. It reminded me of Moses being left in the reeds. At 15, Cynthia is on her own! She makes the analogy that dealing drugs is very much a multi-level marketing schematic. She recounts when she was ARRescued, not arrested, but arrescued as she calls it. Don't you just love that?? Today, Cynthia heads up The Overcomers ministry at DFW New Beginnings under Larry and Tiz Huch. Revelation 12:11 They overcame him by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimonies.

Brooke was born to be a cheerleader. She exudes joy and loves encouraging others and cheering you on. The enemy went right for Brooke's gift, right for her heart. He robbed, killed, and tried to destroy her spirit, the real Brooke. What the devil meant for evil, God meant for good. God took her broken heart, her ragged spirit and He mended her back together again using her gifted place for His purpose.

Clark Crawford shares his amazing story. It is a roller coaster ride from athlete to addiction, from prison to salvation, from ministry to prison, and from prison to final freedom! Listen to the highlights of his life story and buy his book to read the whole wonderful testimony!

In the year plus we have aired The Freedom Hour, Royce Hall's testimony is still one of the most explosive and most touching. Royce has a Divine Dance with Death and God uses that to open his eyes and heart to seek the True Living God! His redemption and restoration make me cry every time I listen! I know it will bless you!

Lucy Smith talks about her phenomenal Texas prison program - Hope Literacy. Lucy has dedicated many years to helping Texas inmates gain new life opportunities by teaching them the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic and guides them to their GED's.
