Grace is a difficult concept for theologians to define, teach, and even explain to others. Why is the work of grace so incredible? What does it mean when it says we receive "Grace upon grace?" Join Apostle Dr. Lee Ann Marino as she tackles the world of grace: what it is, what we are able to learn about it, and how she got an unlikely lesson in grace from a special source in her life. (Intro and co...

Receiving the indwelling of the Holy Spirit with evidence of spiritual gifts (especially speaking in tongues) remains a controversial topic in Christianity. Looking at Acts 2, what can we learn as believers about this experience? Join Apostle Dr. Lee Ann Marino for a special episode as she preaches live in Asheville, North Carolina in August 2019 at Jesus People Arts and Worship Center (Pastor Tom...

When we define "love" in relationships, we often go to 1 Corinthians 13. What we don't consider is that 1 Corinthians 13 is about agape love, which although important in any relationship, isn't all we need for a partnership/marriage to work successfully. What should we look for in our intimate relationships? Join Apostle Dr. Lee Ann Marino as  she teaches about love, pure and simple - to help you...

Acceptance of who we are - the realities of ourselves - are sometimes  the most difficult aspects of self-discovery. What happens when we deny  key things about ourselves? Where do we wind up? In this special two-part testimony, join Apostle Dr. Lee  Ann Marino's guest, Pastor Tom  Cash of Jesus People Arts and Worship Center (Asheville, NC) as he shares his journey through childhood, discovery, r...

The "ministry of intercession" is often spoken of in complicated and convoluted terms. What does it mean "to intercede?" Why is such important - especially at the time of one's death? Join Apostle Dr. Lee Ann Marino and guest Julie Harvey as the two discuss powerful experiences both had with intercession - without understanding or knowing it at the time - and how such helped two individuals transi...

It's not uncommon to meet people who've been told by the church that they should never seek out help outside of church. Seeing a counselor or therapist, exploring mental health issues, and other dimensions of mental well-being are often cast aside as wrong, sinful, or unhelpful. Is this true, or can getting help benefit us when we are in dark times or suspect there is a problem? Join Apostle Dr. L...

When we talk about the "truth that sets us free," what are we talking about? Is truth about "beliefs on a page," or is it about something deeper, something that causes us to confront ourselves? How does truth become something we use to change our lives? Join Apostle Dr. Lee Ann Marino as she teaches practically on truth - so you can confront the truth with the power to change you! (Intro and  conc...

Discernment isn't the most sought-after gift in Christianity today, because it is largely misunderstood. What do you know about discernment? How does someone walk in discernment in practical and everyday ways? Join Apostle Dr. Lee Ann Marino and guest, Prophet Emma Weatherington of Apostolic House of God in East Hartford, CT, for our look at discernment - and all the ways discernment manifests and...

Have you ever looked around and wondered why "Christians are always so stuffy?" Just about all of us can vouch for meeting someone who claimed to be a Christian and had absolutely no sense of humor, was no fun, couldn't talk about anything, and was not very nice. What many of these people don't realize is just how much they severely damage their ability to witness and interact with others. Are you...

The world of strong emotions is often controversial in many Christian circles today. When we deem "negative" things as against God, what do we do with the strong feelings we have - and those present in Scripture? Join Apostle Dr. Lee Ann Marino for this look at the book of Lamentations and its strong contents - and how examining our strong feelings can help us develop our relationship with God. (I...

We've all heard of "Jezebel," but who was she? How has Jezebel's image  been changed through the ages - and when someone accuses someone of  being "Jezebel" or under "the spirit of Jezebel," what does it mean?  More importantly, where does this slur come from? Join Apostle Dr. Lee  Ann Marino and guest Apostle Yolanda Davis Greggs of S.A.L.T. Ministries  as they explore this modern-day association...
