America’s veterans need help, and Ricky Bonczek, a retired Marine, knows this better than most. Ricky served as a helicopter mechanic, and after leaving the Corps in 2016, he faced another battle: pain management. With compressed, bulging, and herniated discs in his spine, nerve damage to his legs, and numerous other points of pain, Ricky gave his all while serving America, but the recovery was extremely difficult. Today, Ricky is the Veterans Outreach Coordinator for the National Religious Broadcasters association (NRB). This coalition is a Christian outreach organization working to bridge the gap between veterans and the church. It connects churches to trusted partners and resources to build solid, trustworthy veterans outreach programs. Ricky has the heart for this work because he’s served time in the trenches with our great American warriors.   TAKEAWAYS   Veterans in America tragically commit suicide every year at a rate of 17 deaths per day - more if alcohol and substance abuse are involved   Visit nrb.org/veterans if your church would like to learn more about providing resources to local veterans   VMI is also partnered with great and trusted organizations like Joni & Friends, the Armed Services Ministry, and more   If you’re a pastor who wants to connect with veterans in the church, you can start small with VMI with a simple Bible study or potluck   🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Kerusso (get 15% off with code TINA): https://rstr.co/kerusso/tina    Stop Soldier Suicide: https://stopsoldiersuicide.org/vet-stats   🔗 CONNECT WITH RICKY BONCZEK Website: https://nrb.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nrbassociation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nrbassociation/ X: https://x.com/NRBassociation YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/nrbassociation   📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY WAVwatch (get 15% off with code TINA): https://wavwatch.com/tina Echo Technologies (get 20% off): https://bit.ly/CCMflask RogersHood (use code TINA for 10% off): https://www.rogershood.com/?coupon=tina Waveguard (get 20% off with code TINA): https://waveguard.com/tina   🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://theccmshow.lightcast.com/   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE https://counterculturemom.com/download-new-app/   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2025 Recap & 2026 Goals: https://bit.ly/2026CCM Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Captain Kevin Smith is the Sonic Warrior. A prolific author, speaker, and aviation design consultant, Kevin has an incredible and vast background. He was the commander of the first deployed Top Gun unit in the United States Navy. His experience flying a myriad of aircraft, like the F-11 Tiger and the F-8 Crusader, is just a fraction of his incredible story. He was trained to dogfight while flying faster than the speed of sound! His love of flying, he says, was born when he was just 12 years old. That love eventually paved his path toward joining the U.S. Navy, where he lived out a very real version of the popular film, Top Gun.

What is deliverance? “The open exercise of authority of one kingdom over another,” exclaims Jordan Wells, a Christian deliverance minister and speaker. Jordan is also the author of the highly comprehensive The Demon and Spiritual Warfare Prayer Encyclopedia: Prayers to Cast Out Demons and Win Every Battle. Jordan has a refreshing and no-nonsense approach to deliverance, describing the modern church as a military base that houses a hospital. This hospital is within the broader cosmic spiritual battle that has been raging for millennia as our defeated foe, Satan, rages against God - to no avail. Christians are called to be ambassadors for Christ, and we must free ourselves from bondage to carry out our mission. Jordan explains deliverance and spiritual warfare in simple, easy-to-follow steps that will give Christians hope.   TAKEAWAYS   Humans are made up of three parts: body, soul, and spirit (1 Thess. 5:23) - the spirit can be saved but your soul can be demon-possessed   Jordan’s encyclopedia is excellent for deep study and continued expansion on the practice of casting out demonic influences   The spirit of narcissism is directly connected to the Leviathan chaos spirit and mental health struggles   There are two parts to deliverance: renouncing and repenting, in that order   🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Pop Culture Purge Tour: text TOUR to 55444 The Demon and Spiritual Warfare Prayer Encyclopedia: https://link.amazon/B006TfVAJFire Prayers That Torment Evil Spirits book: https://link.amazon/B0gQFRjgn   🔗 CONNECT WITH JORDAN WELLS Facebook: https://bit.ly/4hu9q4V Instagram: https://bit.ly/4Bv7YXL YouTube: https://bit.ly/4ssNKtR   📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Medi-Share: new link: https://www.medishare.com/tina Waveguard (get 20% off with code TINA): https://waveguard.com/tina WAVwatch (get 15% off with code TINA): https://wavwatch.com/tina RogersHood (use code TINA for 10% off): https://www.rogershood.com/?coupon=tina   🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://theccmshow.lightcast.com/   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE https://counterculturemom.com/download-new-app/   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2025 Recap & 2026 Goals: https://bit.ly/2026CCM Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

The Leviathan chaos spirit targets you based on one single thing: a grain of truth. It takes that truth, twists it, and creates chaotic communication, financial devastation, division and discord in a majority if not all relationships. How do you stop it? “Relax and punch it in the eyes,” proclaims Gina Guy-Warren. Gina, the CEO of Truth-N-Love Ministries, tackles the monstrous topic of how to dismantle attacks from demons. She points to gaps in the equipping provided by modern churches, highlighting one key facet: the church doesn’t spend any time helping people develop stable personalities. To do so, Christians must deal with their own traumas and move beyond these hurts to find healing and wholeness. Trauma, Gina points out, knows no gender. She also discusses the torment that comes with refusing to forgive people in your life.   TAKEAWAYS   God sees your pain, and He sees your suffering   RescueOrIntervention.com is Gina’s frontline defense ministry to help people in dangerous situations   The Word and the Workout is a church-gym ministry bringing Christians together through physical fitness   The Warrens also lead a private interactive church called MIC (Mentorship Interactive Church), offering special mentorship   🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Download the CCM App: https://bit.ly/4howgLj Specialized Mentorship: https://thewayofawarrior.org/   🔗 CONNECT WITH GINA GUY-WARREN Website: https://truthnloveministries.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gina.warren.993966 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the.wayofawarrior/ Podcast: https://bit.ly/4hB5ONh   📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY IGF-1 (get 50% off with auto ship using code TINA): https://getigf1.com/ Echo Technologies (20% off): https://echowater.com/products/echo-flask?ref=TINA Medi-Share: new link: https://www.medishare.com/tina Waveguard (get 20% off with code TINA): https://waveguard.com/tina   🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://theccmshow.lightcast.com/   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE https://counterculturemom.com/download-new-app/   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2025 Recap & 2026 Goals: https://bit.ly/2026CCM Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

What’s the difference between religion and a relationship with Christ? Christ was deeply empathetic in His interactions with mankind during His time on earth. He did not pound people with legalistic doctrine or empty platitudes. Christ cared for others as human beings, and in doing so, He set an excellent example of how we can help those around us today. Author and speaker, Gina Guy-Warren, brings this and many other nuggets of hard-earned wisdom to her audience. Gina is the founder and CEO of Truth-N-Love Ministries and the host of The Way of a Warrior, Unbreakable Love podcast. She puts people above policies. Gina, along with her husband, operates a rescue intervention ministry, focused on anti-sex trafficking. In addition, she founded a church-centered gym workout ministry.

What are some signs that you are being oppressed by a python spirit? What is a python spirit? Kathy DeGraw knows exactly what people are dealing with when it comes to this demonic spirit. Kathy is an author, TV host, and podcaster, but most prominently, she is a deliverance minister. In her meetings, she says people are saved and healed by the spirit of Jesus Christ. She also testifies that she has been healed by Jesus 17 times! Her ministry deals frequently with the chaotic and oppressive python spirit - a spirit that squeezes, crushes, and ultimately attempts to kill its victims by stealing, crumbling, and destroying precious things in their lives. She equates the python spirit with physical illness and encourages those who are suffering from it to pray out loud, pray often, and seek deliverance.   TAKEAWAYS   The python spirit is 50 percent a lack of spiritual walk, 50 percent health-related   The python spirit collaborates with the Jezebel and witchcraft spirit and wilderness seasons are sometimes periods of spiritual oppression   Two resources addressing healing and spiritual warfare: Healed at Last: Overcome Sickness and Receive Your Physical Healing   Also: Prophetic Spiritual Warfare: Partnering with the Holy Spirit to Manifest Your Destiny   🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Pop Culture Tour: text TOUR to 55444 Python Spirit: Deliverance Prayer video: https://bit.ly/4e6UKq2   🔗 CONNECT WITH KATHY DEGRAW Website: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kathydegraw/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathydegraw/   📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Echo Technologies (get 10% off with code TINA): http://www.echowater.com/TINA Medi-Share: new link: https://www.medishare.com/tina Waveguard (get 20% off with code TINA): https://waveguard.com/tina Covenant Eyes: https://bit.ly/TheHealingChurchFREEBook   🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://theccmshow.lightcast.com/   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE https://counterculturemom.com/download-new-app/   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2025 Recap & 2026 Goals: https://bit.ly/2026CCM Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Generational iniquity is a big term for a simple but sobering concept: the possibility that the sins of one person can be passed down for generations. Dr. Laura Sanger has researched this Biblical concept for decades. She is a retired psychologist and the author of several books. Laura explains what sin means, how it can be passed down for generations in the family lineage, and most importantly, how Christians can break that curse by embracing an attitude of total repentance before God. Laura also digs into some scientific observations that back up Biblical principles surrounding generational iniquity, like genetic predispositions and gene expression. Finally, Laura explains what the word curse really means and how it applies in this context.   TAKEAWAYS   Generational iniquity begins with the sinful strongholds in our lives - what strongholds are you struggling with?   1 Samuel 15:3 highlights a key story about Saul and the ordered destruction of the Amalekites that ties into this topic   Identification repentance releases the current generation from the consequences of previous generations   Check out Laura’s book, Generation Hoodwinked: The Impact of the Nephilim Agenda Today   🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/4yktBbm Our DNA Can Carry Curses video: https://bit.ly/3U1qxlx Generation Hoodwinked book: https://link.amazon/B0h5GeaHw   🔗 CONNECT WITH DR.

Has chaos ever become so prevalent in your life that you wondered if it was a spiritual attack? You could be dealing with the Leviathan chaos spirit! Indeed, this millennia-long conflict between God and Satan has played out across history, with mankind right in the middle of the spiritual war. Josiah Sill shares his Biblical knowledge on the topic of the Leviathan, tracing a line from Genesis to Revelation and pointing out many scriptural references regarding this demonic spirit. Josiah is a Christian author, father, and the founder of Remnant Flame Press. The Leviathan in Scripture, he says, whether a real or allegorical creature, represents Satan. It’s a façade worn by our greatest enemy - an enemy who will be vanquished by Jesus Christ in the end.   TAKEAWAYS   Check out Josiah’s book, The Ancient Wars: From Cain to Caesar - The Dragon’s Empires and Eden’s Prophecy   Job 41 is a great passage to begin a contextualization of the Leviathan   A Leviathan spirit of chaos will look like: deception, twisting of words, and confusion   The word SERPENT has its roots in SORCERY, and chaos is the result of combined confusion and fear   🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Kerusso T-shirts (get 15% off with code TINA): https://rstr.co/kerusso/tina The Ancient Wars book: https://link.amazon/B0dPRhaLb   🔗 CONNECT WITH JOSIAH SILL Website: https://josiahsill.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/josiahsill Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/josiahsill/ X: https://x.com/josiahsill   📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY WAVwatch (get 15% off with code TINA): https://wavwatch.com/tina Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ Waveguard (get 20% off with code TINA): https://waveguard.com/tina IGF-1 (get 50% off with auto ship using code TINA): https://getigf1.com/   🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://theccmshow.lightcast.com/   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE https://counterculturemom.com/download-new-app/   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2025 Recap & 2026 Goals: https://bit.ly/2026CCM Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Becca Spinks is all about safety and empowerment. As a Texas-born firearms and self-defense instructor, she knows a plethora about staying safe. This mindset is what prompted her to do whatever she could to help protect today’s kids by getting involved in research and advocacy surrounding digital safety and stopping online exploitation. Becca has done extensive research into the online harassment and extremist group, 764, which specifically targets children. As a mom herself, she was alarmed to discover that many parents are not aware of the dangers kids are exposed to online, especially on platforms like Discord or Roblox. Online harassment groups are like cults - they are humiliating, destructive, and in some cases, lethal.   TAKEAWAYS   764 is essentially an online harassment and extortion group aimed to force kids to commit suicide   Understand that your kids are smart, and they will find ways around digital barriers - keep communication open   764 members have gone so far as to mail burner phones to kids’ houses   The best safety bet: not allowing young children to participate on platforms where they can talk to strangers   🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Pop Culture Purge Tour: text TOUR to 55444 Victims of 764 Network Warn Parents: https://bit.ly/4ypahJu 764 Online Cult video: https://bit.ly/478CVmS 764 Extremist Group Member Gets 77 Years: https://bit.ly/4y5noiE Roblox Sued by Attorney General: https://bit.ly/47eNh4F National Socialist Resistance Front (AWD): https://bit.ly/4jgp2ue   🔗 CONNECT WITH BECCA SPINKS Website: https://bxwrites.substack.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bx_on_insta X: https://x.com/bx_on_x   📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY IGF-1 (get 50% off with auto ship using code TINA): https://getigf1.com/ Echo Technologies (get 10% off with code TINA): https://echowater.com/?ref=TINA Medi-Share: https://www.medishare.com/tina-griffin Waveguard (get 20% off with code TINA): https://waveguard.com/tina   🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom   📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://theccmshow.lightcast.com/   📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE https://counterculturemom.com/download-new-app/   💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2025 Recap & 2026 Goals: https://bit.ly/2026CCM Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/
