Ep. 627 - Ex Mennonite Shares Her Spiritual, Emotional and Physical Childhood Abuse - Victoria Stoll

June 19, 2024 • Tina Griffin

Victoria Stoll’s dark side of her life was hidden in the shadows of the Mennonite communities. Raised in the rural farm lifestyle, she survived years of abuse and mental manipulation. After leaving at the age of 18, she met her husband who had grown up Amish, and they decided to build a life for themselves outside of the abusive and legalistic traditions of their Mennonite and Amish heritage. While it is true that not every Mennonite and Amish community is like this, many boys and girls who leave these communities struggle to find their identity in the outside world. Victoria shares what it’s like to grow up isolated from the outside world and how she was finally able to leave the highly controlled and abusive environment.

TAKEAWAYS

Like many Mennonite and Amish children, Victoria experienced a lot of spiritual, emotional, and physical abuse

Many victims don’t report the abuse that they have endured because they don’t understand the laws or where to go for help

Accountability for predators in a small community is rare, and they usually just find another community and repeat the same behavior

Three out of five girls are sexually assaulted in the Amish community, most of them never receiving the help they desperately need

Ep. 636 - Spiritual and Practical Benefits of Mentorship During Your Christian Walk - Rich Shadden

July 4, 2024 • Tina Griffin

There are many benefits to having a Christian mentor in your life, emphasizes pastor Rich Shadden, the co-author of Shepherding the Pastor: Help for the Early Years of Ministry. He discusses today how important it was for him to be mentored by an older pastor during his younger years of leadership. Rich explains the benefits of Christian counsel and also shares his thoughts about how Christians can approach the concept of changing careers or changing ministries from a godly perspective and by seeking out godly wisdom from trustworthy friends and leaders. Model your leadership style after Christ, who laid down His life for the sheep. Rich explains that his helpful insight from his book can easily be applied to any person in a leadership role or wanting to step into one. TAKEAWAYS Older men should take younger men under their wing and mentor them Nobody should make big decisions in isolation but seek Godly counsel from experienced leaders who have profound wisdom We have to be good stewards of what God has put in front of us We were meant to lead with other people by our side 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Answers in Genesis (get 10% off with code AIGCCM10): https://bit.ly/aigccm Shepherding the Pastor book: https://amzn.to/3rnzmpy 🔗 CONNECT WITH RICH SHADDEN X: https://x.com/rcshadden?lang=en&mx=2 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Sanus 1 (get 10% off with code Tina10): http://www.sanus1.com/tina10 TUVU (sign up for free 30-day trial): https://www.tuvu.com/tina Rapid Radios (get 10% off with code TINA): https://rapidradios.com/ Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/counterculturemom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/fpmccmshow 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageccm 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2023 Recap & 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/ccm23impactreport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Ep. 635 - The Core Teachings of the Anti-Biblical New Apostolic Reformation Movement - Holly Pivec

July 3, 2024 • Tina Griffin

What is the New Apostolic Reformation movement - also known as NAR? Holly Pivec is here to help explain the ins and outs of the movement that is sweeping churches far and wide around the globe. Holly is an apologist and co-author of the book, Counterfeit Kingdom: The Dangers of New Revelation, New Prophets, and New Age Practices in the Church. She breaks down the unbiblical teachings of the movement, identifies prominent leaders in the NAR world, and explains how the prophets and apostles in their churches can abuse their self-appointed authority in horrendous ways. Be on the lookout for NAR teachings in today’s modern churches and in most Christian music! Another sign that we are living in the End Times. TAKEAWAYS The NAR movement adds to the Bible by teaching that apostolic dominion is necessary to usher in the return of Christ NAR believes that apostles are authorized by God to bring new revelation and take dominion over the Earth These NAR apostles believe that they are more powerful than elders and pastors in the church Prophets and apostles often teach that their revelations are a direct pipeline to God and that their revelations are on par with the Bible 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/3wganmo Counterfeit Kingdom book: https://amzn.to/3xipugf Former IHOP Leader Accused of Sexual Abuse: https://bit.ly/3xtaovr Mike Bickle Accused of Abusing Teen: https://bit.ly/3xzirx8 🔗 CONNECT WITH HOLLY PIVEC Website: https://www.hollypivec.com/http://www.hollypivec.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hollypivecauthorhttp://www.facebook.com/hollypivecauthor Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hollypivec/http://www.instagram.com/hollypivec X: https://twitter.com/hollypivec YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hollypivecofficialhttp://www.youtube.com/@hollypivecofficial 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY TUVU (sign up for free 30-day trial): https://www.tuvu.com/tina Rapid Radios (get 10% off with code TINA): https://rapidradios.com/ Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ Jase Medical (get a discount with code TINA): https://bit.ly/jaseccm 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/counterculturemom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/fpmccmshow 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageccm 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2023 Recap & 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/ccm23impactreport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner

Ep. 634 - Pastors Must Be Bold and Encourage Flock to Remain Steadfast in Last Days - David Fiorazo

July 2, 2024

Pastors should teach their congregation the whole truth of the Bible without fear or shame, says author, former senior pastor, and bestselling author David Fiorazo. Where has the modern church gone wrong? We are on a cliff in America, he warns. We’re really close to the End Times! How is the church failing its flock? By failing to prepare them to be salt and light in the world. The world is influencing the church more than the church is influencing the world, David points out. It’s a hard job to be a pastor, but they have a responsibility under God to equip the saints. Speak the truth in love, be brave, and continue to do the Lord’s work no matter the cost. Time is of the essence. TAKEAWAYS We must speak about the truth that we have seen and heard and witness to the lost If your pastor is failing to tackle relevant subjects from the pulpit, approach them in a loving way to prepare people for hard times ahead The fastest growing churches are those that are tackling difficult topics and informing their church body of what to expect in the near future The decline of major cultural institutions coincides with the decline of the church 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Culture Opposing the Bible article: https://bit.ly/3yqaqob Sold Their Souls for Rock and Roll: https://counterculturemom.com/store/ Canceling Christianity book: https://amzn.to/4blfahj Worldview Matters Podcast: https://bit.ly/3yayhx9 Assault on the Image of God book: https://amzn.to/3l5bwxu 🔗 CONNECT WITH DAVID FIORAZO Website: https://davidfiorazo.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/davidfiorazo/http://www.facebook.com/davidfiorazo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidfiorazo/http://www.instagram.com/davidfiorazo X: https://twitter.com/fiorazo YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@fiorazo/videoshttp://www.youtube.com/@fiorazo/videos Podcast: https://www.standupforthetruth.com/http://www.standupforthetruth.com 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Rapid Radios (get 10% off with code TINA): https://rapidradios.com/ Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ Jase Medical (get a discount with code TINA): https://bit.ly/jaseccm Sanus 1 (get 10% off with code Tina10): http://www.sanus1.com/tina10 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/counterculturemom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/fpmccmshow 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageccm 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2023 Recap & 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/ccm23impactreport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner
