There is no question that freedom is God's idea. Our Founding Fathers understood freedom from tyranny was paramount to organize and run a governmental structure. The structure they chose was a Constitutional Republic, in which the people enjoyed inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Ben Franklin once famously said we have given you a Republic now its up to you to keep it. Evil does not want people to be free. Evil wants control; it thrives on tyranny. Totalitarian regimes are their choice for governents. Constitutional Republics and democracies are anathema to centralized control.

God wants his people free. The idea of America most closely correlates to a Biblical structure of three branches of government in which there is a separation of powers and "We the People" are the true source of power.

Over the last 50 years America has seen its federal government become more and more powerful, overriding the rights of the states and the Constitutional rights of its citizenry.

The several evil movements to take fathers out of positions of responsibility and leadership in the seven mountains of influence had the effect of allowing fear to influence the population.

This podcast introduces the idea that God the Father is moving to counteract the evil forces creating fatherlessness in our society with a return of the fathers to those seven mountains of influence beginning with the family.

Come listen to several stories that show how the return of the fathers is having a Godly effect on the social fabric and culture of America. When true fathers arrive; fear goes away.

Scripture tells us the God does not do anything on the earth that He doesn't first reveal to His servants, the Prophets. Based on this understanding would it not behoove us to know what God is saying through His servants the prophets today?

Many people don't beleive prophets exist today. Many more cannot discern between a true prophet and a false prophet. Others still hold that a prophet is false if what he says does not come true. This may be so, but one must also consider timing. The timing may be off, yet the word spoken may still be true though not in the timeframe in which it was expected.

Ultimately, everything bolls down to relationship. What is the relationship between God the Father and His servants the prophets? Are these people sons of God? Do they have a Father's heart? Do they want to protect, provide and mentor?

Come listen to Eric Span, Founder of the Prophet's Reward, who speaks prophetically about our time and what God is saying to him about what He is doing on the earth.

The key to all of this is the relationship the listener has with God the Father themselves. Go to the Father and ask Him yourself if the things being said in this podcast resonate with you or not? In the final analysis God does not want us to have fear. False prophets will speak words that cause fear. True prophets speak the truth in love. come listen and discern for yourself if what is being said is coming from the Father or not.

In a world suffering from the effects of fatherlessness how does a society address this monumental problem? It all starts when boys are young and their understanding of life excludes the Biblical concept of intimacy. The rite of passage from adolescence to adulthood usually involves a discussion of sex. Does this conversation, which often happens between a father and son, include a discussion of intimacy? Is there a father present to have this discussion with their son?

When the social order suffers under the absence of fathers, the children suffer. Fathers are not birthed; fathers are raised. Boys do not automatically grow up becoming fathers. The absence of the presence of fathers in all of our social institutions is a rudimentary and fundamental foundational problem.

How can we begin to address this issue? For starters let's discuss the opportunity to discuss sex with a young man. In the first place, you know you will have his undivided attention. He is going to be most interested in this subject. The hard part is going to know where to begin. A good place to start would be what are the young man's questions? What is he asking? Asking questions is a good place to start to have an intimate conversation.

Ironically, the asking of questions (which establishes intimate conversation) are an underpinning to a trusting relationship. This can transition to teaching about sex from the point of view of intimacy. Intimacy is foundational to a proper Biblical understanding of sexual communion. Additional concepts of covenant and procreation follow suit.

Come listen to Papa Tom describe stories from his life which affected him most as a father and grandfather. These stories affected his perception of how he or any father could better teach their sons about life, starting with the most delicate subject of sex. It's very important this subject is handled correctly so that the young man will be able to experience his rite of passage into fatherhood himself.

Enjoy the podcast
