The Long for Truth Show

For over two decades, John Samson preached Word of Faith. He hosted a TBN program in Arizona, shared his pulpit with Andrew Wommack, and rubbed elbows with the movement's biggest names. Then he started doing the funerals of people he had declared healed. In this conversation, John tells the story of how one weekend with R.C. Sproul unraveled everything he believed, why "positive confession" and se...

When the Southern Baptist Convention voted this week to affirm that the office of pastor is reserved for qualified men, social media erupted—so Daniel and Robin sat down to work through the most common arguments people are making for women pastors and weigh each one against Scripture.

Charismatic "prophets" Mike Signorelli, Joseph Z, Alan DiDio, and others claim they were called to a secret meeting in the middle of nowhere — phones on airplane mode, assumed identities, the works — to be briefed on coming "alien disclosure" and save the church from deception. But what came out of that meeting may be some of the most blasphemous teachings we've ever covered on this channel, inclu...

In this episode, we break down a shocking three-minute clip from Jesse Duplantis and show just how much bad theology can be packed into such a short amount of time.

Kathryn Krick is back — and this time she's leading her followers on a "revival history tour" of the very spots where her ministry began, including trees, sidewalks, and parking lots! Daniel and Robin walk through the footage and ask the obvious question: What kind of "pastor" turns her own short ministry history into a pilgrimage site?

A so-called “Reformed” pastor claims to have found revival—but what does that actually mean? In this episode, Steve Kozar, David Lovi, and Daniel Long break down the shift from confessional, Scripture-centered theology to a world of dreams, visions, prophecy, and emotional experiences, and we ask the question: Is this truly the work of the Holy Spirit, or something else entirely?

In this episode, we expose how Paula White — senior advisor to the White House Faith Office and notorious prosperity gospel teacher — turns the Easter offering into a manipulative 14-minute guilt trip. 

Does God promise revival in the way it’s being presented today? If the Spirit of God works through His Word, then what are we to make of experiences that seem to bypass the Bible entirely? This isn’t about dismissing genuine faith—it’s about testing everything (1 Thess. 5:21) and asking whether what’s being called “revival” is truly from God, or something manufactured by man.

Word of Faith theology promises health, healing, and victory through faith—but does it actually deliver? In this episode, we are joined by Steve Johnson to examine the claims of Kenneth Hagin and others, exposing the inconsistencies, failed predictions, and troubling theology behind the movement. By looking at real-life examples—even among its own teachers—this discussion shows how these teachings...

In this episode, we respond to a shocking and deeply manipulative claim made by Landon Schott. In a clip that circulated on X, Schott suggests that discernment podcasters would be happy if disgraced pastor Robert Morris took his own life. We also examine comments from self-styled “apostle” Kelly Lohrke, who echoes similar sentiments while criticizing discernment ministries on social media.

In this long-overdue, raw conversation, Daniel Long and Steve Kozar sit down to talk about why they do what they do, the shocking early history of the Pentecostal movement, and the big question on everyone's mind: Will the Charismatic/NAR movement ever actually reform?

At Paula White’s Unleashed 2026 Conference, viral clips revealed manipulative fundraising appeals, prophetic claims, and promises of financial and generational blessing that raise serious biblical concerns. In this video, we examine what actually took place at the conference, the leaders who chose to participate, and how these teachings compare with Scripture.

Fire baptism is not a new concept. Join us as we look back on the history of fire baptism.

John Alexander Dowie is often remembered in Charismatic circles as a “general of the faith” and a pioneer of divine healing. His name appears in popular books, sermons, and classrooms as a hero of the early movement. But history tells a much darker story. In this video, we look directly at what contemporary newspapers reported about Dowie’s healing homes, his practices, and the disturbing number o...

From Landon Schott visiting Robert Morris in jail to David Diga Hernandez platforming Kathryn Krick, the pattern is hard to ignore—questionable judgment seems to be a recurring theme among Big Charisma leaders. The three bald guys are back together, taking a closer look at these headline-making moves and what they reveal.

False prophets and fake faith healers have been mining information from people at their events for decades. From Dowie to Lake to Branham to Bolz, these false prophets have used stolen or gathered information to prop themselves up. In this episode, I’m joined by Pete Evans and Barry Bowen of the Trinity Foundation as we discuss how these fake prophets and healers operate and how they get away with...

Mike Winger's recent video about Shawn Bolz has created a firestorm in the Charismatic Movement. In this episode, Justin Peters joins me to take a hard look at the persistent and destructive problem of false prophecy in modern churches.

You’ve probably heard it in sermons, prayer meetings, and deliverance sessions: “We bind you, Satan.” “We bind every principality.” “We bind the devil in Jesus’ name.” But where does the Bible actually teach Christians to do this? In this video, we take a careful, in-context look at the passages most often used to justify the practice of “binding Satan”—including Matthew 16, Matthew 18, Mark 3, an...

Is Annihilationism actually taught in Scripture, or is it an unbiblical doctrine of hell? In this episode, I’m joined by Pastor Chris Rosebrough of Fighting for the Faith as we take a careful, Scripture-driven look at annihilationism and compare it with the historic Christian understanding of eternal punishment.

After declaring he was “done,” Mike Signorelli quickly changed his tune. In this episode, we break down his latest video, examine what was said, what was walked back, and why it matters. When a pastor speaks publicly, words have consequences—and Christians are called to test everything against Scripture. Let’s take a careful, biblical look at what’s really going on.

Kirk Cameron has changed his views about hell. In this episode, we compare his view of hell with what the Bible actually says about hell.

Can Christians really command angels—as long as we quote a Bible verse? Some teachers say yes. Scripture says absolutely not. In this episode, we compare these claims with what the Bible actually teaches about angels—who they are, who they serve, and why they obey God alone, not us.

Our guest Steve Johnson, author of Deconstructing Kenneth Hagin, has a remarkable story—one that includes a surprising encounter with Kenneth Hagin himself. As a student at the then newly founded Rhema Bible College, Steve sat under some of the most influential voices in the early Word of Faith movement, including Kenneth Hagin, Kenneth Copeland, Charles Capps, Norvel Hayes, and others. In this ep...

In this episode, Benny Hinn tries to show how to spot a fraud, yet he fails his own test miserably. 

Should Christians question demons to uncover hidden information? Is there a single example of this practice anywhere in Scripture? In this episode, we open the Bible to find out—and what we discover may surprise you.
