Stand Up For The Truth Podcast

Mary welcomes new guest Todd Hampson as we discuss the building blocks of Bible prophecy. Undertaking a systematic study of such a broad subject can be daunting, unless a few things are kept in mind, which will in turn make everything fall into place! Definitions, definitions, definitions! What is amillennialism? What is the church age? Why is the pre-trib rapture the most solid from a biblical st...

Tim and Mary Danielsen take apart some current headlines today, further cementing the notion that our worldview matters when it comes to discerning the times. First up, we look at the UN and their age-old longing to tax the life out of all of us and call it a world government. It takes money to run the world, and they intend to fund it to the hilt. Next we look at the topic of the Third Temple, an...

Mary welcomes back Stand Up favorite Gary Kah to talk about ongoing world events in this first half of 2025. More importantly, are we praying and taking these events to the Lord, knowing He has it all in hand and yet understanding how important intercession is to protect and defend what we have been given? With this unique perspective, we look at both domestic and foreign issues, such as the US ec...

Dr. JB Hixson Mary welcomes back JB Hixson on this Good Friday to talk about the importance of clinging to the cross in living out our day to day faith. When Jesus gave up His spirit, the veil in the temple was torn in two. This was no window curtain, it was at least 60 feet high and 4″ thick – and separated the common area of the Temple from the Holy of Holies accessible only by the H...

Mary welcomes back David Bowen to talk about the Road to Emmaus, that beautiful account that took place the afternoon of Resurrection Sunday. There are 89 verses about Holy Week in the Gospels, nearly a third. It’s almost as though everything else in the gospels is merely an introduction to the main event! We will look at those 2 disciples, returning home after a grueling week in Jerusalem o...

Tim and Mary discuss the newsworthy items of the day, at least from a media point of view. It’s always been a bit of a grab bag because there are always things going on behind the scenes that don’t seem to warrant further inspection by those who curate our news. At least in the days of constant feeds, some of them leak out. Today we look at the Iran talks, and try to parse out who the...

Mary welcomes back historian William Federer to talk about the unthinkable: the encroachment of Islam in America – in alarming ways. In 2006, Keith Ellison became the first Muslim elected to Congress. He swore his oath on the Qua’ran. Today in Texas, two Islamic lawmakers are leading the Pakistainification of the Lone Star State. How Islam is affecting our world here in 2025 is every b...

In this solo NEW episode of Stand Up for the Truth , guest host Dave Wager turns our focus to the timeless wisdom of Psalm 37.

Drawing from both Scripture and personal experiences, Dave explains how these pr...

Mary chats with Q90’s very own Terra Koslowski on human trafficking, the trading in humans by those who themselves are slaves to human lust and greed. Whereas as a culture, we lived according to the maxim of loving people and using things, the trafficking and porn industry survives by using humans and loving things. Terra has been a committed educator, advocate, and trainer in the fight agai...

Today Mary welcomes Dr. Tim Chaffey to discuss the controversial Hebrew Roots Movement. Far from simply trying to understand the Jewish roots of the Bible, this movement seeks to answer the question about what happens when Gentiles and Jews get saved: do Gentiles become Jews?  For centuries, the people of God were Jews, with the exception of some Gentiles who came to faith in the God of Israel. Th...

On today’s program, Tim and Mary Danielsen look at a handful of the signs, or indicators, that we are in those days of the labor pains on earth. When Jesus spoke of the signs in the earth, He said to watch for natural signs as the “beginning of labor pains”. I guess the one thing we all want to know of course, is, how close are we – when do things point to the middle of pai...

Mary welcomes Avery Foley from Answers in Genesis about parenting in these times. With so many parenting styles over the decades, and home-school curricula, parents need to be not just intentional but also measure everything by the Word.

Will other institutions of higher learning feel the pinch on tha...

Mary welcomes back Creation Scientist/Apologist Russ Miller to talk about a variety of topics. What is science? And is there a difference between true science and Darwinian conjecture? Those who worship at the altar of man’s knowledge are becoming more and more vocal toward Christians who say that without God there IS no science; and yet they believe that Christianity is merely blind faith....

Tim and Mary Danielsen take on some headlines as we go around the world in 55 minutes. We update the listener on the Wisconsin election and what that means for the nation.
