The Long for Truth Show

Welcome to Bizarro Christianity, where the things being said and done in the name of Jesus just keep getting stranger! In this episode, we take you on another trip through some of the most bizarre, outrageous, and downright ridiculous things happening in the church today. From unbelievable statements by popular pastors to teachings that completely contradict Scripture, you'll find yourself wondering, "Is this really Christianity?" Some of it is laughable, some of it is disturbing, but all of it reminds us why biblical discernment is so important.

Carl Lentz is back in the spotlight, and Mike Todd is helping make it happen! But should a pastor who has fallen into serious moral failure ever return to the pulpit? In this episode, we'll examine Lentz's controversial statements about pastoral disqualification, Mike Todd's prophecy over his future, and what Scripture actually says about the qualifications for pastoral ministry.

Has Christianity officially entered the Twilight Zone? Just when you think you've heard it all, something comes along that leaves you shaking your head in disbelief! Join us as we take a look at some of the recent bizarre claims coming out of charismatic Christianity. We'll have some laughs along the way, but behind the absurdity lies a serious problem: what happens when personal experiences, visions, and supposed revelations take precedence over the clear teaching of God's Word?

What happens when a pastor compares himself to Kurt Cobain, the hobbits from The Lord of the Rings, and points to biblical figures like Moses and Paul when discussing his fame? In this video, we examine a pastor's obsession with his own influence, his constant self-promotion, and the dangerous theology he's spreading to millions of people. Whatever happened to pastors preaching Christ instead of themselves?

In this episode, I’m joined by Menno Zweers, founder of NAR Connections and author of What Is Truth?, to examine how the New Apostolic Reformation undermines biblical truth through private interpretation, claimed revelation, and Scripture taken out of context. We look at real examples from prominent teachers and discuss why we must return to Scripture as the final authority for what we believe and teach.

Queen Okeoma claims to have visited hell eight times, but what she teaches about salvation is even more troubling. From Christians going to hell over a single unconfessed sin to scribe angels recording our every move, Queen's teachings raise serious biblical concerns. Join Daniel and Robin as they examine her extraordinary claims, expose the dangers of her works-based gospel, and point believers back to the assurance of salvation found in Jesus Christ alone.

Queen Okeoma claims she’s been to hell eight times—and Otha Turnbough apparently believes her. In this episode, we uncover how her bizarre hell testimony connects to Turnbough’s viral claims about Jesus and expose the dangerous theology behind them.

What does the Bible actually teach about spiritual “mantles”? In this episode, we examine the growing Charismatic teaching about receiving, transferring, and inheriting mantles—and the books, courses, and ministries making money from it.

Jenny Weaver has publicly warned people about Kathryn Krick—but just how different are their ministries? In this episode, I’m joined by Dawn Hill of The Lovesick Scribe to compare Weaver and Krick side by side, examining their claims to apostolic authority, criticisms of the local church, emphasis on deliverance and supernatural experiences, spiritual hierarchy, and the elevation of ministry leaders. Dawn brings a unique perspective as a former member of Ryan LeStrange’s organization who has personally encountered Jenny Weaver. Kathryn Krick may be the name getting the headlines right now, but the similarities uncovered in this conversation raise some serious questions about Jenny Weaver and the Core Group as well.

Where did Kenneth Copeland get the idea that God is 6'2" and weighs a couple hundred pounds? Why did Benny Hinn teach that there are nine persons in the Trinity? It all traces back to one man — and a study Bible still sitting on bookshelves in millions of Christian homes. I'm joined by Chuck Lewis from Sheep Among Wolves and Steve Johnson, author of Deconstructing Kenneth Hagin, to look at who this man was, what he taught, and why so many Word of Faith teachers still endorse his Bible today.
