What does it mean to persevere - what kind of strength does it take? Perseverance is something Donna Snow personally encountered and now lives to teach others how to master. After discovering her husband’s multiple affairs 15 years ago, she had to learn how to take one painful day at a time while on her journey of healing and forgiveness. Nothing should stop you from persevering no matter what happens to you or what you’ve done, she says. Donna suggests praying your way through the challenges of life, and discusses in detail the subject of forgiveness. Jesus died so that we can be free, and we are truly blessed to be able to forgive others as He forgave us - even when they do not deserve it. Forgiveness is a biblical command. TAKEAWAYS Perseverance means getting up every day and facing life’s challenges even when you don’t want to and being obedient to the Lord Someone who has been strengthened through the trials and fires of life is more relatable to others who are suffering similar challenges Forgiveness is God’s wonderful gift to us and one we should always give to others Marriage is not about two halves coming together - it’s about two whole, individual people putting Jesus first 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/3WgANmo Perseverance book: https://bit.ly/3BGIpZW Forgiveness book: https://bit.ly/3PccP9u   🔗 CONNECT WITH ARTESIAN MINISTRIES Website: https://www.artesianministries.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100056493557884 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/donnasnowpyle/ X: https://x.com/RealDonnaSnow YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@donnasnowpyle Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/DonnaSnowPyle/   📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Pure Bella Vita (get $5 off with code TINA): https://bit.ly/PBVACCM LifeVac (get 10% off with code TINA): https://lifevac.net/ Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ Redemption Shield (get 10% off with code TINA): https://bit.ly/3WzgEIQ    🔗 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/

Many people don’t realize how dangerous the world can be for those who are blind. Hero Kelvin Crosby suffers from both blindness and deafness and shares about his severe disadvantages, multiple suicide attempts, even his narrow escape from almost being killed crossing the street on three separate occasions. After he was struck by a taxi in New York City in sub-zero temperatures, he knew he had to do something to help other visually impaired people be able to cross the street safely. Shortly after, he ingeniously created the See Me Cane. He advocates for a type of “defensive walking,” which is helpful for blind people walking in specifically low-light situations. Defensive walking cultivates a cautionary environment that helps others react to what you are doing rather than the other way around, Kelvin explains. TAKEAWAYS You can donate to help Kelvin raise another $500,000, which will allow him to produce another 2,500 See Me Canes at SeeMeCane.com Perseverance is the perfect word to describe Kelvin’s attitude when facing many obstacles and difficulties in life Kelvin also suffers from Usher syndrome type 2, which causes hearing and vision loss God has been guiding Kelvin’s every step throughout his childhood years, multiple suicide attempts, and the creation of See Me Cane 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE See Me Cane video: https://bit.ly/3BXtAlH Kerusso T-shirts (get 15% off with code TINA): https://bit.ly/4077C94 See Me Cane Go Fund Me: https://bit.ly/3BVOi5o   🔗 CONNECT WITH KELVIN CROSBY Website: https://kelvincrosby.com/   🔗 CONNECT WITH DEAF BLIND POTTER Website: https://www.deafblindpotter.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deafblindpotter Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deafblindpotter/ X: https://x.com/DeafblindPotter YouTube: https://bit.ly/3ZUkZbo TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@deafblindpotter   🔗 CONNECT WITH SEE ME CANE Website: https://www.seemecane.com/   📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Gabb: http://gabb.com/tina  My Father’s World: mfwbooks.com/4tina PetClub 247 (use this link for discounts!): https://petclub247.com/tina  Jacob’s Ladder: https://jacobsladder.us/give/    🔗 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/

Angela Finley was heading to her cell in the county jail to serve time for drug trafficking when a small blue bible caught her eye, nestled amid a pile of reading material available to inmates. Between her cellmate reading scripture out loud and Angela diving into the word of God personally, this critical truth changed her life. It brought her into a relationship with Jesus Christ. When Angela was released from prison, she was inspired to advocate for change and empowerment for other former inmates reintegrating into society by founding her inspiring organization, No Handz Down. Today, she helps former inmates find housing, provides them with clothes, and assists them in creating a resume, all while helping them embrace their new identity in the Lord Jesus Christ. She also addresses the power of forgiveness and prayer.

It is often the gap periods of waiting in our lives that are the most difficult - anxiety and anger can set in, and we may find ourselves going down a negative and destructive path. This very issue is something that Mark Vroegop, the lead pastor of College Park Church, set out to tackle in his book, Waiting Isn’t a Waste: The Surprising Comfort of Trusting God in the Uncertainties of Life. Mark talks about waiting on God in those “gap moments,” and trusting His provision. Waiting is beautiful, promised, and a biblical command, he says. He also describes it as a “hopeful position that we can live in.” Waiting doesn’t have to be painful - it can be a major growing season for our faith in Jesus. TAKEAWAYS Every person has to discern about when it’s time to wait and when it’s time to move Waiting confronts our desire for control Waiting is part of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ Gaps are meant to remind us that we are NOT God and that we CAN trust Him 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/3RG5kGJ Waiting Isn’t a Waste book: https://amzn.to/3UcqTTg College Park Church: https://www.yourchurch.com/   🔗 CONNECT WITH MARK VROEGOP Website: https://markvroegop.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/markdvroegop Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vroegopmark/ X: https://x.com/MarkVroegop   📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Trail Life: https://blog.traillifeusa.com/lbbb-tina Jacob’s Ladder: https://jacobsladder.us/give/  TUVU (sign up for free 30-day trial): https://www.tuvu.com/tina Pure Bella Vita (get $5 off with code TINA): https://bit.ly/PBVACCM   🔗 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/

We need to be able to control our fear - it doesn’t need to blind us or overwhelm us. This is the wisdom Michael Hingson shares as he discusses his narrow escape from the Twin Towers when they collapsed on September 11, 2001. Michael’s blindness only empowers him as a leader and educator, and he details the incredible lessons he has learned from his beloved guide dogs over the years, and why fear can be used as a valuable tool to survive and adapt.

Genesis 3:15 is the backstory to the prophetic narrative of Jesus Christ’s triumphant victory over the devil in Revelation, and it’s a backstory that many people don’t fully comprehend. L.A. Marzulli has given this plenty of thought and research for over four decades. He is the CEO of Spiral of Life, the author of 13 books, and the director and producer of 30 films. He is an expert on the subject of alien phenomena, End Times prophecy, and theories about the ancient Nephilim race. What does it all mean? Why is Genesis 3:15 so important? How will the rapture of the church of Christ tie into a potential global alien deception? L.A. shares his thoughts on all of this and more with his careful research and thought-provoking theories.
