    Investing In Your Faith: The Timothy Plan Founder Advises 'Let the Bible Be Your Guide'
    2025/03/30
    Thirty-two years ago, finance expert Art Ally got tired of investing in companies that had a track record of diverting from biblical moral principles. So, he created The Timothy Plan, an investment firm that would screen out companies that pursued "unholy agendas," like abortion, pornography or sex trafficking. And the biblical directive has been profitable... to the tune of nearly $3 billion in the fund. But that's not the first priority. The often-misquoted verse in the Bible, Timothy 6:10, doesn't say money is the root of all evil, but that the "love of money" is the root of all evil. It's a big distinction. It means people of faith should put God first and make decisions about investments that align with God's Word. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Ally speaks frankly about the spiritual warfare going on in the financial world, and that companies like Disney and Target have lost their way morally. They are not even considered as part of a Timothy Plan portfolio. While supporting Israel, as the land of God's chosen people is the basis of their Israel Common Values Fund. Why is it important to care about where your money goes? Ally says, because there's nothing more central to anyone's life than money. And there's nothing more important than glorifying God.

  • Laine Lawson Craft: Fighting Back Against the Spiritual Forces After Your Child

    Laine Lawson Craft: Fighting Back Against the Spiritual Forces After Your Child
    2025/03/23
    There's a spiritual battle waging in the world today. It's the same ancient warfare waged since the beginning of time. Today's manifestation is targeting our children. Christian author and speaker Laine Lawson Craft is out to give parents the spiritual ammunition they'll need to bring their prodigal child back into the fold of faith. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Craft talks about her devotional "Warfare Parenting" and the book it's based on "The Parent's Battle Plan." Craft says her "aha moment" came during several fights with her three children. There would be screaming and shouting over how each wanted to live their lives. Then she realized... she wasn't fighting against her child, but with the forces of evil that are out to kill and destroy them. Drugs, alcohol, sexual promiscuity, depression and thoughts of suicide are part of the spiritual forces of evil today. Craft says, prayer and handing a child over to God, is one of the first steps a parent must take. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    'Side Eye Bride' Relying on Faith to Fight Against Hateful Social Media Attacks
    2025/03/16
    A split-second look in the direction of a screaming baby out of the corner of the bride's eye became a viral TikTok video and sparked a wave of heated debates about 'childless' weddings. Texas bride Claire Kendall Taetz now regrets posting the video, which she thought would be a lighthearted way to 'get over' the crying baby interruption at the most important event of her life. But instead, it's become a source of pain. The video has had more than 3.5 million views online, the story surfacing on Facebook, People, New York Post and more, while garnering more than three thousand comments; the majority of which are positive. But the small percentage of haters has shaken her. The comments were mean and spiteful, and some even questioning whether or not she's a 'good Christian'. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, newlywed Taetz talks about the ordeal that has shocked her to her core, while also driving her deeper into her identity in Christ, and helped along the way by the devotional "Light For Today", written by the host of this Lighthouse Faith podcast, Lauren Green.

  • "A Matter of Faith" with Charles Payne

    "A Matter of Faith" with Charles Payne
    2025/03/11
    Your faith and your finances don't have to live in two separate worlds. In fact, counter to popular opinion, the Bible has some very positive things to say about the accumulation of wealth. But it also, of course, has some negative things to say as well. One of the most misquoted verses in the Bible is 1 Timothy 6:10. It's quoted as "Money is the root of all evil." But that's not actually what the verse says. It actually says, "For the love of money is the root of all evil." What's the difference? Well, having money is not a bad thing, it's when money has you. It's when money becomes your fundamental trust instead of the God who allowed you to prosper. Fox Business anchor Charles Payne joins this special edition of Lighthouse Faith podcast to discuss a special episode of his show "Making Money" this week. It's called "A Matter of Faith," about how more and more people are using their faith to guide their portfolios. Catch the special Tuesday, March 11th at 2pm ET on FBN!

    'Cardinalium Collegii Report", The College of Cardinals Report, Website Shows Who May Be the Next Pope?
    2025/03/09
    While Pope Francis appears to be slowly recovering from severe bronchitis and double pneumonia, talk is turning to the inevitable... Who will be the next Bishop of Rome to emerge from the next Conclave? It will be one of the 252 members of the College of Cardinals, the Catholic Church's bishops whose most important task is to elect the next Pope. But one of the challenges for the Cardinals? They don't know each other very well. Normally they would have an opportunity to encounter each other and learn more about each other at a Consistory, a Cardinal meeting in Rome usually held when new Cardinals are created. But Pope Francis hasn't called for a Consistory in more than ten years. So veteran Vatican journalist Diane Montagna is part of a group that created a website called 'Cardinalium Collegii Report', aka, The College of Cardinals Report. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Montagna talks about the website, why it was created, who are the Cardinals, what they believe, and most importantly who are the most papabile, able to be Pope.

  • Austen Ivereigh, Papal Historian and Biographer: Francis Knows, "Papacy is for Life"

    Austen Ivereigh, Papal Historian and Biographer: Francis Knows, "Papacy is for Life"
    2025/03/02
    Pope Francis has been in the hospital for the longest stay of his papacy. More than two weeks as of February 28. And while the latest updates out of the Vatican continually report a slow steady improvement from his severe bronchitis and double pneumonia, it hasn't stopped the Vaticanista rumor mill from speculating on his possible resignation. But papal historian, author and biographer Austen Ivereigh dispels the rumors saying that despite the secret letter of resignation he wrote at the beginning of his election as the Bishop of Rome, Francis believes the papacy is for life. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, recorded in Rome in Vatican City, Ivereigh talks about hopes for the pope's healing, his work ethic, and how this simple and humble man from Argentina has molded the Roman Catholic Church in ways so different from his predecessors. Ivereigh is the author of "Pope Francis: The Great Reformer," "Francis and the Making of a Radical Pope, "and also "Wounded Shepherd: Pope Francis and the Struggle to Convert the Catholic Church."

  • Metropolitan Yevstratiy of Ukraine's Orthodox Church: Russian Orthodox Church Extension of Kremlin, It's "Holy War" Against the West

    Metropolitan Yevstratiy of Ukraine's Orthodox Church: Russian Orthodox Church Extension of Kremlin, It's "Holy War" Against the West
    2025/02/16
    Metropolitan Yevstratiy, the Deputy Head of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine's External Church Relations, accuses the Russian Orthodox Church of being nothing more than an arm of the Kremlin, doing the bidding of President Vladimir Putin, the proverbial 'wolf in sheep's clothing'. In this case, religious vestments, and telling Russian soldiers fighting against Ukraine that if they die in battle, they will immediately go to paradise, all sins forgiven. In 2019, Ukraine's Orthodox Church was granted independence from the Russian Orthodox Church. It caused an uproar in Moscow. Kirill and Putin refused to recognize the authority of the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew in Constantinople (modern day Istanbul, Turkey) that authorized Ukraine's identity as an Autocephalous Church. That Russia is engaged in a Holy War is not in question. But it's Patriarch Kirill in Moscow, says Yevstratiy, that claims the Russian aggression against Ukraine is for the "Liberation of Ukrainians from Godless West... From the evil." And to, "bring to Ukraine the light and truth." On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Metropolitan Yevstratiy also reveals a scarier version of the war in Ukraine; that Putin and Kirill want to make Moscow the third and final Rome, labeling the rest of Christianity, Catholics and Protestants alike as heretics and pagans. As President Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth look for diplomatic solutions to the war's end, Yevstratiy and His Beatitude Metropolitan Epiphany, the leader of the OCU, are faithful that God Himself will bring an end to the battle.
