Andy Woods: Clearly Confusing

Mary welcomes back Dr. Andy Woods to look at the state of the world in mid-November. We might think that elections clear the air, bring a settledness to the question of where we as a nation are headed. We got that part, alright – but what we still don’t know is why. Why did Americans vote the way they did? For Islam, against Israel? JD Vance himself said that the Republicans lost because of the war, and that maybe we should redefine our relationship with Israel. Yes, that’s clear, thank you. Vote for Islam and socialism, and away from our only ally in the Middle East. Got it. So, the people have spoken but we need a translator I think. We talk about antisemitism, aid to Israel, and affordability in this varied edition of SUFTT. Pastor Andy is one of those people who has had complete thoughts on all this and so much more, to help bring clarity to the confusion – for this week at least, as the world turns.       Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

So what happens when it gets so dark, it’s all over but the shouting? In today’s edition of SUFTT, Tim and Mary take the stance that really, there’s not much left of the fuse that was lit when Israel became a nation, and then fuel was poured on the flames on October 7, 2023. It’s ALL in place – manifold hatred for that tiny Jewish state in which nothing goes unsaid anymore; America getting what we asked for and then some, and even solid commentary is no longer really needed for the remnant, because we see the handwriting on the wall. So while the dust settles on the midterms, what is the proper length of time for mourning before we get about the business of the church? Is it too soon? There are plenty of news pieces in the rehash department but so few in the hope file. Today we try and break through all that and talk about hope anyway, and how to spend our time wisely if we really truly believe the hour is late.     Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Mary welcomes back author, bible teacher, apologist Melissa Huray – an Emmy award winning news reporter and anchor, and an addiction counselor with a Masters in Physiology and a degree in mass communication. Today we communicate a new level in craziness in the world by talking about the continued rise in antisemitism which has risen to the level of holocaust denial – and this from conservatives as well. What is going on? Author Daniel Greenfield defines the purpose of antisemitism this way: “to normalize all the horrible things that will come after.” And he is not wrong, but are we even paying attention anymore? With all the footage and pictorial proofs that the holocaust was historically verifiable, what could this possibly serve? Maybe we just have to admit that Daniel Greenfield was correct. We also talk about why Americans voted for Muslims and Communists; and the rise of false prophets in the church, something we have been duly warned about by Jesus Himself. A varied hour about all the stuff that has gone wobbly this year. The year-end summaries sure to come should be enlightening.       Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Mary welcomes back Israel expert and cultural observer Jim Fletcher to talk about ground-shaking election results, both in the States and in Israel. As we move toward the culmination of all things, everything temporary will be shaken, till only what is eternal will remain – the Kingdom of God. But in the meantime, we are certainly seeing a whole lot of shaking going on.  As the world rapidly becomes unmoored, untethered and uncoupled from anything resembling a Judeo/Christian worldview, by choice, we are seeing the rotting fruit of a world in which godless ideologies and brutal, violent people who want to implement these ideologies are taking over society. We talk about the American elections, the Israeli election – and how it is no coincidence that both these restraining nations are going through major electoral upheaval. Then we talk about the end of civility as prophesied in the Scriptures, and end with a quick look at Israeli archeology – the stones still cry out, and at the perfect time to show the world that the bible accounts of His people are all true and reliable.     Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Mary welcomes back financial expert David Holland to talk about the hottest financial topic imaginable: digital tokenization. What started as cryptocurrencies making their home on the blockchain has become the digitization of anything and everything. What appears to be common ownership of that anything and everything – from land, to commodities and from luxury items to that gold bar in your home – is really a way to control everything and everyone. Back before gambling became part of the fabric of every sporting event, economic movers and shakers were envisioning a future where we would “own nothing and be happy”, and that “nothing” is our homes, our biometrics and our behavior. The latest thing teaching us to “gamify” our lives are platforms Kalshi and Polymarket. Are they in on the scam of all time? Indeed they are. David helps us sort it all out, meanwhile, take some time to learn about tokenization before we all get taken to the proverbial cleaners.       Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

On today’s news cycle podcast, Tim and Mary look at all the things that seem to be cascading at once – American elections, Israeli election results and the current hostility toward the Jewish state; governments around the world urging people to stockpile basics, Iran, the global economy. How much more can we even watch, let alone comprehend? The world is tense – and the worldly answer to attempting to exercise a modicum of control isn’t to just let things play out, or even to trust God with it all; the answer seems to be just place your bets on anything and everything and come out on top. But for the believer, we trust, often knowing nothing. Win, lose or draw – and when things go sideways as well –  we trust a God Who is not surprised by anything, and urge and exhort others to do so too. His ways are not our ways, and we should be grateful for that because humans ruin everything they touch. So even if we know the electoral outcomes, we still really don’t know anything, except that He is on the throne. A full hour of staying alert, armed with hope and brimming with cheer.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

[Apologies for the late posting] On Tuesday’s edition of SUFTT, Mary takes a look at what it means to “rightly divide the Word” and warns of a 90+ year old movement that is rearing its head in the church. “Mid Acts Dispensationalism”, or “hyper-dispensationalism” is causing untold doctrinal damage in the church again, and reaping confusion and false hermeneutics – and the only thing it is “rightly dividing” is the brethren. We look first of all at some definitions; what is dispensationalism? Why is it considered the best historical/grammatical approach to understanding the bible? Then we look at the finer points of the “hyper-” or “ultra-” versions and compare. Once we understand what they really teach, if we are approached by a brother or sister who wants to know if we understand what it means to “rightly divide”, we won’t be sucked into this aberration of dispensationalism, and be caught with our discernment down. In addition, if one’s church is taken over by their aggressiveness, we will know how to approach that issue as well. Then we take a fresh look at “Red Letter” Christians, and the deeper problems with their approach to dividing the Word. A full hour to equip you to stay the course and study to show ourselves approved.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

This week is Q Drive at Q90 FM! Tuesday (10/27/26) Crash sits down with Stand Up for the Truth hosts Mary Danielsen and Pastor Tim Danielsen to talk about why biblical truth matters more than ever. From growing threats to religious freedom and free speech to digital surveillance, Bible prophecy, and false teaching in the church, the conversation covers the issues Christians need to understand. They also share what goes into researching topics, vetting guests, and standing firm on the authority of God’s Word, regardless of the cost. With Stand Up for the Truth reaching listeners across the country and around the world, Mary and Tim reflect on the ministry’s impact, memorable guests, and the responsibility of equipping believers with biblical discernment. You’ll also hear why Q90 FM’s commitment to “Truth at Any Cost” requires faithful financial support. We’re raising funds for the first half of 2027, and your partnership helps keep this listener-supported ministry on the air. Give securely at q90fm.com/pledge or call 800-979-9010.

On the first half of today’s SUFTT, Mary welcomes back Todd Nettleton of Voice of the Martyrs to remind the listener that we are approaching another International Day of Prayer for Persecuted Christians. We discuss the current state of the persecuted church around the world; restricted regions and active hotspots. We talk about the goal of having all churches pray for our persecuted brethren around the world and other ways we can practically help them despite being separated by long distances –  and how prayer changes things.  Then in the 2nd half, we carry the subject forward by looking at the storm of persecution brewing in the West through the systematic destruction of the Judeo/Christian worldview. Both Canada and the UK have seen an uptick in legal pressures and anti-Christian bias that is now labeled “hate”, and as such, those who are targeted could be open to potential prosecution. An eye-opening hour for believers in the West who need to have their wits about them as things grow ever darker.       Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Mary welcomes Autumn Christensen to discuss Her Plan – a hands-and-feet approach to being pro-life. There seems to be a disconnect in the church between being pro-life by conviction and finding opportunities to bring practical hope in real time. Christians often think the only way to show that conviction is to protest somewhere, when actually there are organizations in place to provide for the needs of women who are in dire straits with an unplanned pregnancy, combined with no support group or perhaps mired in poverty and homelessness. Important research has shown that if women had actual resources to see the pregnancy through, around 2/3 of them say they would reconsider abortion. With so many disenfranchised people in the world, this should not be a surprise – and government organizations are not the solution. Rather, charities and ministries have the people and resources to help find ways to meet the needs of women desperately in need of answers. Autumn is the executive director of Her Plan, and chats with us about the myriad of ways we can put our pro-life convictions into real action, meeting the needs of real people, showing the love of Jesus.         Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A
