Yup! The panic is kicking in as the COVID-19 moves across the United States. But do believers need to fear? Do we need to give in to the panic? People are still linking it to other events happening around the globe and declaring the End Times. But is it? Is this the BIG disease that is destined to wipe out humanity or pass by with little harm or somewhere in between? Jay the Truth Barista and Amaz...

COVID-19 is moving around the world. Some react by panicking! For others, it's just a highly contagious flu-type virus. Some are linking it to other events happening around the globe and declaring the End Times with God breaking the seals of the Book of Revelation, "When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!” And I looked, and there was a pale green...

Most of us are fairly tired of receiving updates on the COVID-19 virus, but I feel it is important for a short commentary on it. Recently, I was asked about who I follow in terms of prophecy, and I said the late David Wilkerson is a trust voice in my life. Of course, there are others, but overall, I follow my reading of the Scriptures … especially when it comes to prophecy. We have to personally o...

COVID-19 has affected everyone in our country. The church was not able to meet while the quarantine was in effect, and most churches complied with the orders not to meet. Are the fears justified? Most would say yes, but the longer this scare continues many pastors and conservative leaders have their questions. In this episode, Larry talks with two pastors about the church and the spiritual message...

You think your good. I’ve got bad news … you are not good. God created everything and said it is good. Then God created man and said it is very good. And then right away, man messed everything up. Most people think they're pretty good. That’s the kind of message they hear in church … that they’re so good. We want to be told we’re good, we don’t want to be told we’re a sinner. That's one of the key...

We all know that it is easier to say something about having character than it is to live character out. Character will always cost you something. Faith is the substance of our having Relationship with God, but character is the billboard everyone reads about your faith. People of faith can say they believe in God, but their personal lives are a mess and tells a different story about their faith. Ch...

One of the ways we can evaluate a society’s value about people is to note how the society views sex. The first assault on sex was how we devalued marriage between husband and wife. In movies, we saw how easy it was to have sexual relationships and that set a pattern for how people relate to sex through casual sexual encounters. Then the assault moved on to include same sex relationships. Now, we n...

The Apostle Paul was a very spiritual man. He learned much of his insight through the suffering of bringing the Gospel to a hostile world. Once again, we live in a post-Christian world where many of the prominent ideas of our day are not based upon a Judeo-Christian foundation. Join Larry in this episode, as he talks about the journey of living a Christian life in a post-Christian era. Challenging...

Fleming is founder...

We have been encouraged to stay inside and distance ourselves from people. Good advice from our health officials on how to stay safe during this COVID-19 outbreak.

In this episode, Larry tell you what you are not hearing concerning the crises in our day. Challenging the Culture with Truth with Larry Kut...

Abortion advocates fight hard to convince the public that their fight is justified and noble. Yet, you will notice that their fight is always about the rights of the woman … never about the rights of the child. Shouldn’t all parties involved in a pregnancy be included in a decision such as abortion, especially the child whose life is at stake? In this episode, Larry talks about how abortion is an...

Jesus said “Abide in Me as I abide in you.” Striving means make great efforts to achieve or obtain something. Abide means to continue, or remain with, or be beside someone or something.

Bob Willbanks is a former busines...

With sky rocketing costs of housing, many people are losing the battle of having a place to live. Homelessness is an issue for every community in America today. Streets are full of people who are marginalized, including the working poor, those with mental health issues, those who have alcohol and drugs addictions, and those who have plainly just given up. In this episode, Larry talks with a man wh...

The emphasis in most churches today is centered upon the idea of let’s be as successful as we can as a witness to the blessings of God. Let’s show Him off by how He has blessed us. However, this is a slippery slope that draws us into building our best lives now. This can overtake the more important spiritual principles that Jesus taught us … deny yourself, pick up your cross, and follow Me. In thi...

Culture is no friend to our family or our children. Culture is what creeps into our homes and into the lives of our kids only to warp their worldview contrary to our values. In extreme cases, kids are harmed beyond repair and either end up hooked on drugs or exploited by sex traffickers. In this episode, Larry and his guest Reverend Shawn Morrison, talk about Child Endangerment. Challenging the Cu...

Why is leadership the most important element in the Church? Well, we used to have a saying in ministry that summed it up … as the leader goes, so goes the church. Scripture tells us that leaders will be judged with a stricter judgment because of their influence. You see, leaders influence others. They convince people about doctrine, about worship, about prayer, and a host of other spiritual values...
