Coffee and Spirits

Happy Fourth of July Weekend 2026 to the USA! Pastor Brad goes deep into 1 John 5 as he is nearing wrapping up the series on Gnosticism. We have learned so much in this series and we thank you for joining us many steps along the way. We will conclude 1 John next week and see where our journey takes us moving forward. All the Best...Pastor Brad

After a few weeks of other subjects, Pastor Brad takes us back into 1 John to learn how to effectively protect oneself from the dangers of the "Hidden Knowledge" cult. Thanks for being a part of our "Coffee & Spirits" podcast; we've been together for 94 episodes! All the Best...

In this episode of Coffee & Spirits, Pastor Brad wraps up the two-part mini series on the validity of God's Word, he provides guidelines to help us study God's Word, and he shares a Bible Study Method to help you in your personal study time. It is our desire to equip and empower you in your spiritual journey. Thanks to everyone who has been a part of the first two years of this podcast...

Pastor Brad has been asked about God's Word, Bible Study Methods, and a few different questions regarding the development of Scripture. This kicks off a two-week many series focused around the topic of God's Word. This week we will discuss: The Materialization of God's Word The Inspiration of God's Word The Dedication to God's Word We hope you glean some things that will help y...

Let's take a look at the creating of the Sacred Space as the Hebrews traveled through the wilderness (were Azazel lived) and how it corresponds to 1 Corinthians 5 and the call to avoid sexual sin... This is wild stuff! PB

Hey Friends, Pastor Brad takes a look into the subject of "tongues" and brings a few fresh takes into the topic. Just like Adam and Eve were instructed to multiply and spread throughout the earth--Jesus' disciples have been told to multiply and spread throughout the earth. Now, however, we have been given the Spirit to reach all the estranged nations that were spread during the Tower...

Pastor Brad looks into a command that was given to God's people on three separate occasions in the Torah. Remember, if its weird, it matters...so this topic matters. Ultimately, it exposes more and more ways the lower level spiritual beings attempt to lead us astray. But, we are of those who are true to the Most-High God and live in His blessing and freedom. All God's Best...PB

After taking a few weeks to refresh our Biblical worldview, Pastor Brad is back to addressing the lies of Gnosticism. Gnosticism impacted Adam and Eve in the Garden. It has influenced religious cults and mystics. Sadly, it was making its impact in the church. The Apostle John was concerned about it for the early church and we see those same patterns and teachings in the church today. It's a ti...

In this podcast, Pastor Brad looks into the three rebellions we see in the Scriptures, from the serpent being in the Garden of Eden to the gods of the nations. This topic will help you to better understand the principalities and powers Paul was addressing in the letter to the Ephesians. Let's learn. Let's grow. And, let's walk in the victory Jesus has already provided for us. God's...

Humanity is dust, but when the Breath (Rüach) of God enters that dust, we become living beings. God's imagers. Gnosticism offers a knowledge path that leads us unto death, but through God's Spirit we are given wisdom, discernment, and life. Thanks for joining us this week! www. BradRiley.net www.

Come on! The second week of refreshing our understanding of the rebellious "Ben ha Elohim" of Genesis Six. This is interesting and fascinating stuff. We hope you enjoy our study of some of the weird/unusual and deep stuff in the Scriptures All the Best, Pastor Brad www.bradriley.net www.faithchapelag.net

What's up Spirit Realm Family?! So many times Pastor Brad is asked about the beings discussed in Psalm 82, the transgressions of Genesis 6, and even the context of Jesus' words in John 10; when He stated, "I called you gods." It is a fascinating subject and what started as a one week topic quickly developed into a two week mini-series. Enjoy the next two weeks as Pastor Brad delv...

What an incredible story--The Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead! The spirit realm shook, the rebellious ben ha Elohim were defeated, and God's imagers were given hope again. Let's spend a second week talking about the event that changed the Heavens and the Earth! Jesus is Risen...

This week, Pastor Brad launches a two-week mini series on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. The resurrection of Jesus from the dead changes everything! We will look at some of the resurrection proofs that will strengthen your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is Risen.

We hope you are learning, growing, and enjoying our walk through 1 John. The heresies and teachings John was addressing with the early church are still an issue for the current church. Aren't you thankful we have God's word to turn to for answers and direction?! All the Best...

Pastor Brad steps back into 1 John and digs into the truths the Apostle John is bringing to God's people. This is a really encouraging message to Christ followers. Yet, John challenges us to turn from the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and pride of life. It's a challenge that is still timely for us today. God bless each and everyone of you! www.bradriley.net

Pastor Brad sat down at the mic to start discussing Gnosticism and the way it influences the modern church...and the next thing we knew, his "pastoral hat" was on as he discussed a lot of the challenges that we are currently facing in our world. Eventually, he addressed some of the topics from 1 John, but this became a very timely message for God's people. God's best to each of y...

One of Pastor Brad's most requested episodes is about Paul commanding women to cover their hair. But, Paul adds the most unusual ending to the sentence, "because of the angels." This is a deep dive into some interesting stuff that was believed at the time of the writing to the Corinthian church. Let's go deep this week and enjoy the journey. PB

This week, we decided to throw back to Pastor Brad's very first time to be on the radio...he introduced the Three Rebellions and gave a nice overview of the Spirit Realm. We hope you enjoy the throwback and thanks for being a faithful part of our Podcast Community.

We have been examining some verses to help us wrap our minds around what it might look like or be like when a believer in Christ passes from this life to the next life. We talk about Abraham's Bosom, Paradise, Heaven, and more. This is such an encouraging episode and there is a really interesting story with quite the twist in our third segment. We hope you enjoy the show this week! Pastor Brad

God's Word gives us some insight into what "it" looks like when a Christ-follower dies. In this episode, Pastor Brad looks into the Scriptures to help us wrap our minds around this moment. We will all face this moment and it would be nice to have some better understanding of it. All God's Best to Each of you, PB

This week is challenging; convicting. "God is Light and in Him is no darkness at all!" Gnostics claim God is evil, physical things are evil, and hidden esoteric knowledge is the true way to salvation. John claims God is Light, Jesus put on flesh, He will teach us all things and He is the only way to salvation. Let's go for it in this episode! PB

We continue gaining insight from the beloved apostle John to help us stay connected to the genuine, the authentic, the real, and the Son of God; Jesus. So many spiritual journeys lead to a trap...Jesus will only lead us to freedom and life everlasting. What a great opportunity to grow in greater grace and relationship with Jesus. Pastor Brad :)

We hope everyone is making it through the most recent weather challenges that have swept across much of the United States and we trust our International audience is safe and well. Pastor Brad continues his look into 1 John as the dear apostle was helping the church to face the dangers of Gnosticism. The enemy always offers "a tree" that will give us spiritual knowledge outside of God&#39...

The world's culture is promoting every possible spiritual avenue--except the Only Way to the Father, Jesus. It isn't a new problem; it's an old problem. From the Garden of Eden the serpent has been offering a hidden knowledge to "be like God," which has always proved to be an empty esoteric invitation. We are going to spend some time in our next few shows learning how the apo...
