Part 1: My name is Michael J. Sutton, and I am the founder of Freedom Matters Today, looking at freedom from a Christian perspective. My background was in academic research, and then theological study and pastoral work. When the pandemic struck, I joined the freedom movement, opposing lockdowns, mandates and vaccine passports.

Part 2: Imagine having a short chat with someone about one aspect of the life of Jesus, with one main point, something to ponder and leave with your friend as you go about your day, something true, something grounded in the Bible, something authentic about the life and significance of Jesus. That is the gist of Jesus for Busy People, a short reflection on Jesus, for busy people, in our busy world today.

Part 3: What church or denomination do you represent? I don't represent any church or denomination or sect. I am a simply a Christian, a follower of Jesus. I work independently of any Christian organization, though I was ordained in the Anglican tradition in 2017

Part 4: What is your goal? I believe the presence, the power, and the person of God is found in Jesus, and my goal is for us to deepen our understanding of the authenticity, spirituality, and identity of Jesus as we walk with him each day.

Part 1: Starting soon, Freedom Matters Today will begin our new private podcast, titled, Jesus for Busy People,’ a five-minute private podcast reflection on the person, the power, and the presence of Jesus. It will be available for a small fee, either paid monthly or yearly. If you are a current subscriber, you will receive an email in early August telling you how you can subscribe to JFBP. The focus will be on four themes that I think resonate with the world today: freedom, authenticity, identity, and spirituality.

Part 2: The methodology for Jesus for Busy People is different from ‘Every Day with Jesus, ‘Daily Bread,’ and many other Christian daily reflection programs. They tend to be ‘human focused,’ rather than God-focused

Part 3: Most Christians today have no idea who God is, they have no idea who Jesus is, and they have no idea who the Spirit is. Our modern, Western Christianity is unbalanced, it is off target, it is out of touch with the testimony of God, the Bible

Part 1: My motivation in starting Freedom Matters Today was, to proclaim, declare, and promote Christian freedom, in an age and society that opposed this freedom. Christianity without freedom, is spiritual tyranny.

Part 2: This absolutism of the culture war is not Christianity, and none of it comes from the Bible, but it is a product of the latest culture war, which is really, the war on public morality, or national civic virtue, and for those in societies with the façade of Christendom, it has to do with how everyone should be forced to behave, under the sword of the state, rather than anything about personal piety or Christian fidelity.

Part 3: I have decided to take a hidden road, and start a daily private podcast called ‘Jesus for B Starting soon, Freedom Matters Today will begin our new private podcast, titled, Jesus for Busy People,’ a five-minute private podcast reflection on the person, the power, and the presence of Jesus. It will be available for a small fee, either paid monthly or yearly

Part 1: I was challenged by Covid Hysteria, and I decided to focus my attention on defending the heart of the good news of Christianity, which is freedom.

Part 2: This is the heart of Western Christianity. It has become a monied faith,

a financial faith, a materialist faith.

Part 3: The good news of God is that the Father sent the Son, Jesus into the

world, and that the Son is the presence, the power, and the person of God. Jesus

knew who he was, Jesus was seen to be a man of deep authenticity, Jesus was a

man of spirituality, and he lived in perfect freedom.

Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God. Will you stand for peace or stand for war?

True freedom has to do with a person's relationship with God and a person's relationship with others

Does God support the proud? In many ways the Christian faith is the enemy of nationalism because in Christ we see a common identity and common humanity and this is the last thing governments want.

What is the nature of American imperialism? What is God's attitude to our political system? Can a Christian support imperialism and war?
