What do you do when God doesn’t make sense?

In this powerful and emotional episode of Truth Behind the Mike, Mike sits down with Worship Pastor Jakobee Cotton from Living Hope Church in Findlay, Ohio to share a story that will deeply move you.

After walking through a season of faith, calling, and surrender… Jakobee and his wife were faced with the unimaginable:

💔 Losing their son at 17 weeks.

In this conversation, Jakobee opens up about:

• The pain of losing a child before birth
• Wrestling honestly with God in grief
• What real faith looks like in suffering
• The moment that changed everything in the hospital room
• Why he chose to trust God… even when it didn’t make sense

This is not a polished “church answer.”

This is real.
This is raw.
This is faith in the fire.

If you’ve ever asked:
👉 “God, where are you?”
👉 “Why would this happen?”
👉 “Can I still trust Him?”

This episode is for you.

Why does the Bible say “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom”—yet the fear of God is rarely talked about in modern Christianity?

In this episode of the Behind the Mike Podcast, Mike Stone explores the biblical meaning of the fear of the Lord, why this foundational truth has faded from many churches, and what happens to faith and culture when reverence for God disappears.

Through scripture, historical examples, and practical insight, this message examines the tension between God’s holiness and God’s love and why rediscovering the fear of the Lord may be essential for spiritual renewal.

Topics explored in this video:
• What the fear of the Lord actually means
• Why modern culture resists the idea of fearing God
• How losing the fear of God affects the church
• Biblical examples of encountering the holiness of God
• Why reverence for God leads to wisdom and transformation

If you’re seeking a deeper understanding of scripture and a stronger foundation for your faith, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.

Is belief in Jesus Christ based on blind faith… or credible evidence?

In this video, we examine the historical, scientific, and philosophical evidence surrounding Christianity and the resurrection of Jesus. From the origin of the universe and the fine-tuning of physical laws to the historical case for the resurrection, we explore arguments that many historians, scientists, and philosophers take seriously.

This video examines:
• The origin of the universe and the Kalam Cosmological Argument
• Fine-tuning in the laws of physics
• The mystery of DNA and biological information
• Historical evidence for Jesus of Nazareth
• Non-Christian sources like Tacitus and Josephus
• Gary Habermas’ Minimal Facts argument for the resurrection
• N.T. Wright’s historical analysis of the early Christian movement
• Why the resurrection of Jesus remains one of the most debated events in history

Christianity stands or falls on the resurrection of Jesus. If it happened, it changes everything.

Whether you’re a believer, skeptic, or simply curious, this video invites you to explore the evidence and decide for yourself.

📚 Sources discussed include:
William Lane Craig – Reasonable Faith
Gary Habermas – Resurrection research
N.T. Wright – The Resurrection of the Son of God

What if the greatest threat to Christianity in America isn’t persecution — but distraction?

In this video, we explore a powerful thought experiment: If Satan wanted to turn Americans away from Jesus, how would he do it?

Not through banning churches.
Not through burning Bibles.

But through busyness, comfort theology, political tribalism, cultural embarrassment, and shifting the focus away from the resurrection.

This is a wake-up call for Christians and a serious challenge for skeptics.

Because if Jesus really rose from the dead — that changes everything.

During the recent State of the Union, something stood out — not because of policy, but because of how we respond to moral issues in our culture.

When did we stop calling evil… evil?

In this video, we examine Isaiah 5:20, Romans 1, and the growing moral confusion in modern culture. This isn’t about politics. It’s about discernment. It’s about truth. It’s about whether Christians still have the courage to call right “right” and wrong “wrong.”

Have we traded conviction for comfort?
Have we allowed popularity to define goodness?
Have we stopped testing everything through Scripture?

Let’s wrestle with it together.

📖 Scriptures referenced:
– Isaiah 5:20
– Romans 1
– 1 Thessalonians 5:21

Most people think spiritual danger looks like rebellion. But Jesus warned about something far more subtle — and far more dangerous.

This video explores what the Bible says about lukewarm faith, spiritual drift, and how believers slowly lose passion for God without realizing it.

In Revelation 3, Jesus delivers one of His strongest warnings to the church — a warning about becoming spiritually lukewarm. But what does lukewarm Christianity really mean? And why is spiritual indifference often more dangerous than outright rebellion?

In this message, we talk about:
• The slow fade of faith
• How believers drift from God without noticing
• The warning signs of spiritual complacency
• Why lukewarm faith is so dangerous
• How Jesus lovingly calls drifting hearts back to Him

If you’ve ever felt spiritually dry, distracted, or stuck going through religious routines without passion, this message will help you recognize the warning signs and rediscover spiritual fire.

Most people don’t destroy their lives in one moment… they drift there.

In this episode of Truth Behind the Mike, we explore the powerful “2-degree drift” analogy — and how small compromises slowly pull us away from God, truth, and the life we were created to live.

The truth is:
✔ Marriages rarely collapse overnight
✔ Faith rarely disappears suddenly
✔ Integrity rarely breaks in one decision

It usually begins with small compromises that quietly compound over time.

But there is hope.

Just as small compromises lead us away from truth, small corrections can realign our lives with God’s purpose.

If you feel spiritually distracted, drifting, or distant from God — this message is for you.

👉 In this video you’ll discover:
• Why sin rarely starts big
• How spiritual drift actually happens
• What the Bible says about temptation and compromise
• How repentance leads to transformation
• Practical guardrails to keep your life aligned with truth

God doesn’t just forgive wandering hearts — He restores them.
