Kolob to Calvary's podcastK2C 55 - What Does God Want (Part 3)- The Incarnation: God's Unthinkable StrategyAfter Eden, the flood, Babel, Abraham, Sinai, kings, and exile… the story reaches its turning point. God didn't abandon His plan for a human family. He didn't surrender the nations to darkness. And He didn't scrap creation when rebellion kept repeating itself. Instead, He stepped in. In this episode, we trace the arc from Israel's failure to the Incarnation—why God chose to become a man, how the crucifixion blindsided the powers of darkness, and what Paul meant when he said that if the rulers of this age had understood what was happening, they...

Kolob to Calvary's podcastK2C 54 – What Does God Want? (Part Two): Rebellion, Rescue, and God's Unfinished FamilyWhat Does God Want? (Part Two): Rebellion, Rescue, and God's Unfinished Family In part two of What Does God Want?, we move deeper into the biblical story to explore why evil accelerated so dramatically after Eden—and why God's response was not abandonment, but rescue. This episode examines the two additional rebellions described in Scripture: the transgression of the sons of God in Genesis 6 and the rebellion of the nations at the Tower of Babel. Together, these events explain why corruption spread beyond individual sin and why God intervened in such decisive ways, including the fl...

Kolob to Calvary's podcastK2C 53 - What Does God Want? (Part 1): God Wanted a Family — Creation, Identity, and the First RebellionWhat does God want? It sounds like a simple question—but the Bible's answer is far bigger, deeper, and more personal than most people realize. In this opening episode of a new teaching series inspired by What Does God Want?, Tracy walks listeners through the opening chapters of Scripture to uncover God's original intention for humanity. Long before religion, rules, or rebellion, God wanted a family—sons and daughters made in His image, created to live in His presence and partner with Him in His work. This episode explores: What it really mean...

Kolob to Calvary's podcastK2C 52 - Faith vs BeliefWhat's the difference between believing in God and actually having faith? In this episode, we explore one of the most misunderstood topics in the Christian world — and one that has real consequences for how we live, trust, and follow Jesus. Many people "believe" in God the way we believe historical facts exist. Even the demons believe — and tremble. But biblical faith is something far deeper: it's trust, surrender, and a relationship that transforms how we live. Join me as we unpack the surprising distinction between belief and faith, why belief alone is never enough. This epis...

Kolob to Calvary's podcastK2C 50 - Challenges Facing Christians TodayAs a free (or formerly free) society, we're being attacked on multiple fronts. The assaults are coming from the sectors of politics, education, finance, environment, health, and culture. Deception and media propaganda is now the norm. And to add insult to injury, apostate churches teaching doctrines of demons lead many astray, like lambs to the slaughter. Our enemy—the kingdom of darkness—uses people to carry out its plans through as many agents of change as possible, and this has happened since Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden. What are these agents of change that Satan...

2024-02-1725 minKolob to Calvary's podcastK2C 48 - Deception Part 2Authentic Christianity is not an institution—it's placing one's faith and trust in Jesus Christ as Messiah and redeemer, and through Jesus being reconciled to God. In this episode, Tracy uses her experience in Mormonism to illustrate that the Enemy—Satan—uses the same deceptive tactics in every false religious system outside and inside of the umbrella of Christianity. Religious deception and spiritual abuse exists within some Christian churches. When honest questions or a desire for transparency with church finances or practices are discouraged or forbidden, it's a sign that something is wrong.

We have to know that our identity is firmly established in Christ and Christ alone. Jesus modeled what He wanted His disciples to do. He modeled what He wants us to do as his disciples. We have access to the same power and authority that Jesus had.

(Ephesians 6:18) There's one more key to successfully putting on the armor. The apostle Paul concludes his instruction concerning the various pieces of armor by adding that we should "pray always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit." In all the teaching and training we do in spiritual warfare, don't underestimate the power of prayer—particularly intercessory prayer. Intercessors are the backbone of the community of faith.

(Isaiah 59:17) God Himself is zealous and fervently passionate about His people and His plan. In simplest terms, zeal is fuel. It is anything that drives people: their passion, their purpose, what they live for. For Christians, zeal is a burning desire to do God's will and to live according to His purpose.

It's important to understand how the imagery of a soldier's sword helps us know how to use Scripture to win our spiritual battles. The battle is real and immediate, with the specter of sudden destruction looming. In the midst of Babylon, we must heed the call to come out. Our future in God's Kingdom hinges on...

(Ephesians 6:15) It's imperative that we understand and know what are we are placing our faith in. Faith requires a large dose of trust. As with anything of importance, examining the evidence is a must. In terms of our belief and reliance on God of the Bible, we can see from Scripture that God is faithful and unchangeable, and that we can trust Him to fulfill all His promises to us.

What do these shoes represent and how are they to be worn? We must have the right shoes for the right occasion. We wouldn't wear flip flops to a formal dinner or to hike in the woods.

They exit a false paradigm and consequently are fearful of being deceived again. It seems less painful to choose unbelief rather than take the chance of being hurt by religion again. But what if God (not the god of Mormonism; but the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob) really exists and you could have a joyful, authentic relationship with Him? And what...

Scott and the rest of the kids rendezvous with them in Utah for the Crookston family reunion. By the end of their extraordinary adventure, three of Tracy's teenagers reject Mormonism. Of her remaining LDS adult sons, one leaves on a mission for the Church and the other comes to faith in the Biblical Jesus while in rehab. Yet, with all the miracles taking place, Tracy and Scott take a surprising step.

Her visiting teachers bombard her with pro-Mormon material and Tracy shares her written Exit Story (reasons for leaving the Church) with them in response. After being "prompted by the Spirit," Bishop Lytle decides to convene a disciplinary court on Tracy for charges of apostasy. After being threatened with a lawsuit, the Bishop is prompted by the Spirit to cancel the proceedings.

They are sadly disappointed at Brother Ellis' lackluster efforts to research and find the truth.

Tracy overheard her 10-year-old nephew warn her soon-to-be eight-year-old son. She was quickly becoming "the black sheep of the family." LDS relatives refused to even entertain the possibility that the Church might not be true. Tracy and Scott had been hoping that the trip to Utah would be instrumental in supporting the claims of Mormonism; instead, it only confirmed their doubts. To know one way or the other, for once and for all was a relief, although it was coupled with sorrow.
