The Remnant Radio's Podcast

Are you raising your kids to survive the spiritual war or just survive Sunday school? Melissa Dougherty (apologist, author, and fellow YouTube creator) is back on Remnant Radio, and this time she's brought a children's gospel allegory and a straight-talking framework for raising kids who can actually defend their faith in the real world.

Most Christian parents want to pass the faith to their kids, but somewhere b...

What happens when secular clinicians start doing what Jesus commissioned His disciples to do?

Licensed psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists are encountering something in their patients they can't fully explain: external entities that aren't part of the self, that want to destroy, torment, and deceive. What they're calling "unattached burdens," the body of Christ has been calling demons for t...

If you've been burned by the church, this episode is for you.

Church hurt isn't rare, it isn't new, and it isn't evidence that something is uniquely broken in you. From prophetic words that never came to pass, to pastors who weaponized loyalty language, to leadership boards that protected predators instead of people, church hurt and spiritual abuse happen. Many believers are left sitting on the edges of...

Some deliverance practices will set people free. Others will make things worse. Can you tell the difference? Joshua Lewis, Michael Miller, and Michael Rowntree review and rank real deliverance ministry practices from biblical to dangerous so the body of Christ can stop guessing and start discerning.

The mainstream church doesn't want to talk about judgment, but the Bible won't stop. Dr. Tom Schreiner, one of the most respected New Testament scholars in the evangelical world and a professor at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, joins Remnant Radio for a straight-shooting conversation on what Scripture actually teaches about divine justice, eternal punishment, and why recovering this doctrine is urgent for the body...

Maybe history doesn't exactly repeat itself, but it does have a way of rhyming. In many charismatic spaces today, some of the most troubling patterns from pre-Reformation Rome have resurfaced, and the body of Christ deserves an honest conversation about it. As continuationists, we aren't here to tear down Spirit-filled Christianity, but rather protect it.

In this episode of Remnant Radio, Joshua, Michael, and Mic...

The unseen battle is more real than most of us realize — and the Bible has a lot more to say about it than we've been taught.

Dr. Joel Muddamalle, director of theology and research at Proverbs 31 Ministries, joins Joshua Lewis to unpack the cosmic spiritual warfare woven throughout Scripture — from the Garden of Eden to the cross of Christ. Drawing on his PhD research in biblical theology under Dr. Patrick Schreiner a...

Bethel Church has shut down the BSSM Alumni Facebook Group — a 5,000+ member community where former students had been raising concerns, sharing experiences, and asking for accountability. Now Bethel has issued a public statement. We read it. We talked about it. And we're not going to pretend it doesn't raise serious questions.

To be clear, we're continuationists. We believe in the ongoing work of the Spirit....

We've spent a lot of time talking about what biblical accountability looks like at the national level - Bethel, Shawn Bolz, Mike Bickle, Chris Reed, or Michael Brown to name a few - examining cover-up culture that protects powerful leaders while silencing victims. But here's the question we keep getting in the comments and in our inboxes: What do I do when it's happening in my own church?

That's a harde...

Paul lists words of wisdom and words of knowledge in 1 Corinthians 12:8 alongside healings, miracles, prophecy, tongues, and interpretation. But he never defines them. That silence has sparked a real debate in the body of Christ, and in this episode Michael Rowntree works through it carefully.

Are these giftings simply elevated Bible teaching, or are they something more? Are they specific, Spirit-initiated operations that ...

Is “exposure ministry” biblical or just Christian gossip? In this episode of Remnant Radio, we dig into what the New Testament actually says about exposing sin, calling out false teachers, and practicing church discipline, and we ask the hard question: when does discernment become destruction of the body of Christ?

We walk through passages like Ephesians 5, Matthew 18, and 1 Timothy 5 and explore: when does the Bible comma...

Can you train someone in spiritual gifts? Joshua Lewis walks through why training doesn’t manufacture gifts of the Spirit, but rather creates a biblical, accountable community to discover and steward the spiritual gifts God has already given.

If you’ve wondered how to grow in spiritual gifts without sliding into charismatic chaos, this episode will give you biblical categories, guardrails, and practical next steps. You’ll ...

How does the non-physical mind and spirit interact with the biological brain? We're jumping in to the fascinating intersection of neuroscience, Christian faith, and mental health with board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Karl Lehman,  author of Mind and Brain: Separate but Integrated. 

Explore biblical evidence for the mind's independence from the brain—like near-death experiences and scriptural accounts of afterlife...

The scandals in the charismatic movement have us examining: what is the difference between cover up culture and exposure culture? What is the biblical response? How do we stay in the radical middle, fostering a culture of transparency and accountability that listens to victims and doesn't hide predators without developing a culture of witch hunt? Joshua Lewis, Michael Miller & Michael Rowntree explore biblical principles f...

When the dust settles after spiritual abuse and public scandal, is any of this charismatic stuff actually real—or should you walk away from it all for good? Many believers are asking hard questions: “If so much has been falsified, are all prophecies fake? Are healings just wishful thinking? How do I trust again?” In this episode of Remnant Radio, Joshua Lewis, Michael Rowntree and Michael Miller open up as pastors and fellow surviv...

Danny Silk just dropped a statement to his Loving on Purpose community owning up to his mishandling of Shawn Bolz's abuses. But did his apology level up to repentance? Is it too little too late? We'll review his statement, acknowledging what he got right while also calling out where deeper heart change is still needed. We'll discuss leadership accountability, "honor culture," spiritual failures, and what tr...

What does the charismatic movement look like after the fallout from Bethel, IHOP, and Hillsong and prominent figures like Shawn Bolz, Todd White, Todd Bentley and Dr. Michael Brown? What comes next for those who still believe the Spirit moves today? Join us as we address the collapse of major charismatic institutions and leaders, and the pathway to rebuilding something better.
