Jesus is Real Radio with Daniel Fusco

Chances are you've recognized that the world seems to have an abundance of truths, but a lack of love when delivering said truths. In today's discussion, Pastor Daniel and host Billy Hallowell talk about the importance of delivering Kingdom truth and doing so in humility and love.

In this cultural moment, where people like to stay on the surface level, it’s easy to gloss over the effects of the choices you make. We don’t really want to grapple with the great cost of our mistakes. But, as Pastor Daniel shares today, you have to face that sobering reality at some point. All the ways you’ve blown it, both big and small, carry the price tag of death. But that’s why Jesus came....

Sometimes people are so focused on getting what they want, that they’re willing to do anything to get it. They don’t care about the cost or who they hurt in the process. This is exactly what plays out in the lives of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel. They were so set on fulfilling their desires that they didn’t care who they took out in the process. But, as Pastor Daniel shares today, God wants you to...

You can picture it in your mind: The baby is just about to take his or her first steps. The parent is a short distance away, arms out, calling their child to walk toward them.

It’s essential that you hav...

Life is a mix of highs and lows, mountains and valleys. And often it seems like your lowest points come on the heels of your biggest victories. This is exactly what happened to Elijah.

Just like He did for Elijah, God...

Perhaps one of the most common traps we fall into as believers is determining our fulfillment based on our roles. As Pastor Daniel and host Billy share in their discussion today, fulfillment is first achieved through God, and the roles we commit to are in response to that initial fulfillment.

When things get hard and circumstances change, your first reaction is probably to think about how you’ll be affected. Well, today, Pastor Daniel encourages you to look at hard times as an opportunity for the people around you to see God more clearly.

You make so many choices every day. In fact, some studies suggest that people make an average of about 35,000 decisions on a daily basis. Well, today, Pastor Daniel looks at the choice the people of Israel faced. Would they follow God or Baal? You’ll learn that you have to answer this question too. Everyone serves something or someone. So, what’s it gonna be for you? Will you serve the true and li...

The older people get, the more they like to relive the good old days, remembering how things used to be. But as much fun as it is to think about all that’s happened, you still have to live your life today. In this edition of Jesus is Real Radio, Pastor Daniel reminds you that each day is a new day, with its own issues and opportunities to walk faithfully with the Lord. No matter how things went in...

From heights to spiders to darkness, people are afraid of all kinds of things. Today, Pastor Daniel shares that many people are afraid of what others think.

Times of tragedy can shake your trust in the Lord at your core. There are so many emotions. Things are so complicated and painful. So what do you do? Where do you go from here? Well, as Pastor Daniel points out in today’s message, you can trust God because He’s able to raise the dead. This powerful God is at work, even in the most tragic of situations.

In today’s message, Pastor Daniel continues to walk you through the story of Elijah. In the midst of this crisis, you’ll see that Elijah is faced with the choice to trust God and do what He says.

It’s pretty amazing when you think about it… the fact that God wants you to be a part of the work He’s doing in the world. But, it’s true and it’s exactly what you see in the life of Elijah.

God is big enough to handle whatever is going on in your life. He wants to have a relationship with you so much that He was willing to give up everything. Jesus came on this great rescue plan… for you! So make the choi...

You can serve God with your entire life. You’ll learn that this is living out your faith at street level-...

While we tell kids that there’s no such thing as a dumb question, you’ll see today that people don’t always ask honest ones. As Pastor Daniel points out, sometimes people ask questions when they don’t really want to know the answer. They’re not open to learning or even discussing what you have to say. They’ve already decided what they think and just want to justify what they’re doing. You’ll be ch...
