"Feeling beaten down by the world? Today we’ll hear a powerful wakeup call about living from our position of victory in Christ rather than wallowing in bitterness."

Feeling beaten down by the world? Pastor Teddy, a.k.a Fred Kenney, Jr. delivers a powerful wake-up call about living from our position of victory in Christ rather than wallowing in bitterness. Through personal stories ranging from childhood dental visits to international ministry opportunities, he weaves together a message about discerning God's will and timing.

When a planned ministry trip to the Philippines seemed perfect "on paper", Pastor Teddy shares how God's lack of peace guided his decision to wait. "God didn't say no, He just said hold on a minute," he explains, revealing how submission to divine timing often contradicts our logical planning. This transparent account of spiritual discernment offers listeners practical insight into recognizing God's guidance in their own lives.

The episode takes us through Pastor Teddy's experience of teaching the entire Gospel of Matthew in just eight days at Calvary Bible Institute Luzon. Comparing Scripture to a Mandelbrot set that reveals endless depth the more you explore it, he describes how students from potentially hostile countries prepared to return home equipped with teaching outlines they created together. His passion for empowering international ministers shines through every word.

Most poignantly, Pastor Teddy addresses the concerning trend of Christians allowing world circumstances to embitter them. Referencing Paul's prison epistles written under dire circumstances, he reminds us to "rejoice in the Lord always" regardless of our situation. His childhood story about being slapped by a frustrated dentist becomes a humorous but powerful metaphor for the spiritual awakening many believers need today.
