Tony Alamo

The Secrets of Holy Prayer, Songs With J.D. Sumner, and Letters From a Riverhead Jail Cell

World Pastor Tony Alamo teaches on holiness and the discipline of unceasing prayer, sings "How Long Has It Been Since You Prayed?" with J.D. Sumner and the Stamps, and reads listener testimonials that range from Jamaica, New York to a jail cell in Riverhead, New York.

Program Opens With Prayer For Holiness
World Pastor Tony Alamo opens program number 288, part 186 of his series How to Have God's Life Living in You, telling listeners that Sharon will explain at the end how to receive a free copy on CD or tape. He previews a strong message from the Lord, newspaper comments on his literature, testimonials, and music. Alamo leads the congregation in prayer, asking the Father to bless the broadcast and to grant holiness to those willing to live in constant prayer, insisting that believers must become perfect to enter heaven rather than accept the false teaching that no one can be perfect. He prays that the message will touch every heart and strengthen the church, and a congregation member answers with a spoken amen. The prayer sets up the evening's central theme, that holiness is reached only by staying close to God in unceasing prayer.

Teaching On An Established, Holy Heart
Alamo preaches at length on a message he calls "Is Your Heart Established?", comparing a trustworthy business reputation to a heart established in the Lord. He quotes the Apostle Paul's prayer that God establish believers' hearts unblamable in holiness, citing First Thessalonians chapters three, four and five, and argues that holiness has been lost even inside the church because believers will not spend a full hour alone in prayer. He tells listeners that sanctification happens only in the presence of God's holiness, not through personal effort, and that approaching the throne in prayer is the one way to be set apart. Citing Leviticus and Isaiah's repeated command to be holy, he insists knowledge of God is only available to those who linger before Him, warning that unholy associations and gossip about faithful believers make a person unholy rather than righteous.

A Song And Memories From Israel
Before continuing the teaching, Alamo introduces a song titled "How Long Has It Been Since You Prayed?", performed with J.D. Sumner and the Stamps, asking the congregation whether it has been too long since they knelt in prayer. After the performance, he returns to Exodus's declaration that the Lord sanctifies His people, and recalls a trip to Israel roughly twenty-three years earlier where he saw rabbis walking the streets reading their Bibles openly, smiling, seemingly close to God. He tells listeners he cannot know whether the display was sincere or hypocritical, but that it looked good regardless, and suggests many of the rabbis he saw may now know Jesus Christ, since closeness to God the Father is impossible without knowing the Son. He ties the memory back to his larger point that unceasing prayer is the only path to holiness.

Testimonials From Across The Country And A Jail Cell
Sharon reads listener mail aloud while Alamo responds to each. A reader in Jamaica, New York, asks for the Messiah booklet after seeing Alamo's testimony, called "Dry Bones," in the Daily News. A senior citizen named Stanley in Minnetonka, Minnesota, praises the same article as it ran in the Minneapolis Star Tribune. A writer identified as Sister Esther in Oklahoma City thanks Alamo for a newspaper sermon and requests more booklets. The most striking letter comes from a man named Bobby, incarcerated in Suffolk County on Long Island and writing from Riverhead, New York, who says he has been freed from addiction through Christ, asks for prayer for his family, and requests a softcover copy of the Messiah book since hardcovers are not allowed in jail. Alamo answers each testimony by returning to his theme that only sustained closeness with God grants the power these writers describe.

Reading Revelation's Vision Of The Throne
Alamo turns to the fourth chapter of Revelation, having Sharon read John's vision of a door opened in heaven, a throne encircled by a rainbow, twenty-four elders in white, and four living creatures crying "Holy, holy, holy" without ceasing. Alamo stops repeatedly to press the point that heaven's seven spirits and its endless praise are available only to those who approach the throne now, comparing the pursuit of holiness to someone traveling to Hollywood for stardom or to Paris for the Eiffel Tower. He tells the congregation that wanting to be in heaven later requires behaving as though already there, since prayer is not stored up like savings but given and received daily. Sharon reads on through the creatures' unceasing praise of the Lord God Almighty, "which was, and is, and is to come," which Alamo ties directly to the believer's obligation to praise constantly rather than rest.

Romans Twelve, Tithing, And A Closing Prayer
Moving to Romans chapter twelve, Alamo has Sharon read Paul's call to present the body as a living sacrifice and to avoid conformity with the world, pausing on each verse to warn against pride, theft, and sexual sin, and to insist that tithing is required because withholding support from the ministry amounts to robbing God. He credits the Lord for his own diligence, mercy, and cheerfulness in feeding hungry children through the broadcast's outreach. As his hour closes, Alamo leads a spoken sinner's prayer inviting Jesus to wash away sin and asks listeners to raise their hands in thanks. Sharon then gives the ministry's website, Texarkana post office box, phone and fax numbers for requesting program 288 free on CD or tape. Alamo signs off as World Pastor Tony Alamo, and the broadcast ends with a singer named Rovan, whom Alamo calls a promotional discovery from a lumber yard, performing "The Lord's Prayer" on RCA Victor.

Raising Expectations with Pastor Joe Schofield

California's Muslim Holidays Law, Campus Islamization, and Parental Rights Battles with Denise Gary-Pandol

Pastor Joe Schofield welcomes longtime guest Denise Gary-Pandol, a Bakersfield school board candidate, for a wide-ranging look at California's new Muslim holiday law, campus activism, and parental-rights fights over gender curriculum in public schools.

Opening Prayer and a Golden Ticket Recap
Pastor Joe Schofield opens the Monday broadcast of Raising Expectations by thanking listeners and restating that Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay for sins, so expectations can rise in daily life. He reviews recent Golden Ticket guests tied to California's midterm races, mentioning Herb Morgan's run for state controller and Janet Price's appearance with the Republican women, and previews a coming interview with a former lieutenant governor. Schofield welcomes his cross-country team, Dr. Paul Hall joining from Lompoc, California, and Dr. Craig Thayer, the Christian surgeon and author, joining from Dalton, Georgia without his wife Stephanie, offering the couple a belated happy anniversary. He notes Ron Greer in McKinney cannot appear this week. Schofield then introduces Denise Gary-Pandol, calling her a family favorite making roughly her ninth appearance on the show, and frames the hour around staying awake to the forces shaping today's leaders before turning the microphone over to her.

AB 2017 and the Muslim Holidays Law
Denise Gary-Pandol opens from Bakersfield in Kern County, in California's San Joaquin Valley, to discuss Assembly Bill 2017, signed by Governor Newsom at the end of September. She explains the law adds two Muslim holidays, Eid al-Adha, the Feast of Sacrifice, and the end of Ramadan, to the school calendar, requiring teachers to build curriculum around them. Gary-Pandol objects that no comparable recognition exists for Jewish holidays such as Passover or Hanukkah, arguing the Jewish people gave the world monotheism, the Ten Commandments, and the natural law tradition underlying American government. She ties the bill to a wider pattern, noting FBI counterterrorism work in Kern, Los Angeles, and Orange counties uncovered what she describes as a bombing plot targeting synagogues and churches around Hanukkah and Christmas. She urges listeners to vote for Steve Hilton for governor and Michael Gates for attorney general, and says the concern pushed her to run for a seat on the Norris School District Board of Trustees.

Muslim Student Associations and Outside Funding
Gary-Pandol links the holiday law to what she calls a broader Islamization effort, pointing to unrest in Paris, where she says more than fifty organizations, including the Muslim Student Association of France, have destroyed buildings and businesses. She says similar Muslim Student Association chapters sit on California's university and community college campuses, and recalls that Bakersfield's chapter held a celebration the month after October 7, 2023, mourning Palestinian deaths while marking what she calls the torture of Israeli civilians. She traces Palestinian Arabs to the Arabian Peninsula, arguing they settled in the region as British-era laborers before Israel's founding. Gary-Pandol alleges the Democratic Socialists of America, with chapters nationwide including Bakersfield, now works alongside these campus groups, funded in part by Qatar, Russia, China, and Iran, and backs the Muslim Brotherhood, which she says sits behind Hamas, Hezbollah, and Islamic Jihad. She cites Senator Ted Cruz's bill to designate the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization.

Answering Charges of Genocide and Apartheid
Responding to campus chants of genocide, apartheid, and occupation, Gary-Pandol argues none of the terms apply to Israel. She says Palestinians are Arabs rather than a distinct race, that Israel's military warns civilian neighborhoods by phone, text, or leaflet before entering, and that Arab citizens serve in the Knesset, work as doctors, lawyers, and judges, and may volunteer for the Israeli Defense Forces even though service is mandatory only for Jewish citizens. She argues the true unresolved refugee population is the roughly 850,000 to 900,000 Jews driven from Arab countries in the 1930s and 1940s, citing New York Times archives she has collected and historian Martin Gilbert's book Exile and Return. She recounts that Haj Amin al-Husseini worked with Adolf Hitler to target Jews in the Middle East, and that the yellow badge Jews wore under Nazi rule traces back to the Muslim world's Charter of Omar. She recommends MEMRI, the Middle East Media Research Institute, for further documentation.

Parental Rights, the SAFETY Act, and The Trevor Project
Gary-Pandol turns to California's SAFETY Act, which she says bars teachers and administrators from telling parents if a child expresses confusion about gender identity. She cites two Supreme Court rulings she says push back on that approach, Mirabelli v. Bonta and Mahmoud v. Taylor, both affirming parents' right to direct their children's religious upbringing and requiring notice before LGBTQ+ instructional material is taught, alongside a January executive order from President Trump condemning school indoctrination. She warns that California student ID cards list a phone number for The Trevor Project, which she describes as a grooming platform linked to sites introducing minors to witchcraft and Satanism, and connects it to rising child sex trafficking, noting federal funding aimed at combating it. Gary-Pandol says these concerns, along with Islamic curriculum mandates, drove her to run for the Norris School District Board of Trustees, Area 5, and she asks listeners to help elect Michael Gates as attorney general to support conservative school board members like her.

Bakersfield's Islamic School and a Call to Act
Gary-Pandol closes by describing the Sunrise Community Center, a planned full-time Islamic school and musalla in Bakersfield, warning that mosques can conceal weapons and serve as outlets for propaganda. She criticizes UC Santa Barbara professor Dr. Butch Ware for an online post praising the October 7 attacks, and recalls that Palo Alto schools bused students to a mosque where a pro-Palestinian activist denied any occupation existed. Running short on time, Schofield asks her for a closing summary, and Gary-Pandol urges parents nationwide to examine classroom curriculum, restore the Ten Commandments and Judeo-Christian history to schools, and push back against both Islamization and the Democratic Socialists of America. Schofield thanks her, promises to republish her American Thinker article on AB 2017, and lets his wife Melva, present in the studio, exchange a quick hello with Gary-Pandol. He closes the broadcast asking listeners to pray and promising to return next week at the same time.

Saving With Steve with Steve Sexton

Weight-Loss Drug Safety, Compounded GLP-1 Risks and Legal Liability with Rusty Reynolds

Steve Sexton talks with personal injury attorney Rusty Reynolds about the hidden risks of compounded and unapproved GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, who can be held responsible when patients are injured, and closes solo with a warning on Treasury yields and market concentration.

Welcoming Rusty Reynolds And The GLP-1 Topic
Steve Sexton opens the Saving with Steve Show by thanking his growing international audience before introducing the topic: the explosive growth of weight-loss injections and whether patients truly know what is inside the vials they use. He notes that federal regulators are confronting compounded drugs, illicit GLP-1 products and purported versions of experimental medications never approved for human use, and asks who could be responsible if a questionable product causes serious injury. He introduces personal injury attorney Rusty Reynolds, founder and partner of the Reynolds and Reynolds Law Firm, correcting himself after briefly calling the firm by the wrong name. Reynolds thanks him and says he is glad to be here. Sexton recalls hearing about people who painlessly lost their eyesight from these treatments, setting up a conversation about trust, regulation and the chain of responsibility behind compounded weight-loss drugs reaching consumers nationwide.

Compound Pharmacies And The Question Of Trust
Reynolds explains that patients rarely know what is truly in a vial until an injury forces a diagnosis, so the real issue is trust rather than certainty. He describes two kinds of compound pharmacies in the United States, the batch-style 503A pharmacies regulated by the FDA and the 503B pharmacies that customize medication per patient prescription. When demand for a brand-name drug outpaces supply, compounders are permitted to recreate the formula from raw ingredients without deviating from the recipe, a workaround around patent protections meant to let supply catch up with demand. Reynolds says many compounders rush to meet that need without the pharmaceutical-grade capacity of the brand names, raising risk. He advises patients to work through their primary care physician, who knows their history and medications, rather than through social media sellers or gyms that may not know or care about a patient's full medical picture before dispensing a compound.

Unapproved Peptides Like Retatrutide
Sexton asks about retatrutide, a drug not yet approved for human use that lawsuits allege is already being sold to consumers. Reynolds explains that many peptides and variations circulating online lack the testing and reliable scientific study that approved GLP-1 drugs have undergone. He says the supplement and peptide industry borrows the trust people place in doctors, hospitals and nurses, often the highest trust many carry, and transfers it to unproven products promising vague benefits like feeling or looking better. Sexton notes that price plays a role too, since GLP-1 drugs that once cost roughly a thousand dollars have fallen toward one or two hundred dollars, or even less, as competition grows. Reynolds warns that unusually cheap pricing should raise the same question as any too-good-to-be-true offer, since producing a pure compound that matches a brand-name recipe carries real costs, and shortcuts taken to hit a lower price point are exactly what can introduce contamination or toxicity.

Eyesight Loss, Gastrointestinal Harm And Hidden Risk
After a break, Sexton returns to the injuries patients report, starting with painless vision loss, which Reynolds calls the most prominent case his firm has forensically investigated by preserving and testing the actual vial used. He explains that GLP-1 drugs can worsen pre-existing conditions, describing how diabetics or pre-diabetics with hardened arteries can experience a sudden blood pressure or fluid shift that starves the optic nerve and causes blindness. He also details gastrointestinal harm, including malnutrition, slowed intestines leading to bowel obstruction, and aggravation of conditions like diverticulosis or ulcers that a patient may not even know they have. Sexton, a colon cancer survivor, shares his own experience with a chemotherapy drug interaction involving zinc, drawing the parallel that every supplement and condition needs to be disclosed to a qualified physician, since an undiagnosed predisposition combined with an unsupervised GLP-1 dose can turn a treatment into a serious, sometimes irreversible injury.

Who Is Responsible When Something Goes Wrong
Sexton asks who can be held responsible when a weight-loss injection seriously harms a patient, given how many hands a product passes through: online sellers, compounders, pharmacies, telehealth providers and prescribers. Reynolds says liability could rest with any or all of them, since his firm performs a root-cause analysis of the relationships between marketing companies, prescribers and compounding pharmacies, examining whether a corporation improperly influenced medical decision-making in violation of rules against corporations practicing medicine. He notes telehealth expanded access to care during COVID but can also be exploited by businesses built around marketing, a hired prescriber and a compounding deal rather than genuine medical judgment. He urges anyone injured to preserve every remaining vial and injectable, disclose every medication and supplement to treating doctors, and contact a healthcare liability attorney, explaining that his firm evaluates whether a provider failed to meet a reasonable standard of care and caused the harm.

Closing Warning On Treasury Yields And Market Concentration
After thanking Reynolds and directing listeners to rrlfirm.com, Sexton closes the hour alone with a solo lesson on the bond market. He explains that the 10-year Treasury yield, which sets the baseline for borrowing costs worldwide, has pushed above five point three percent, breaking through 2007 highs, even as stocks keep climbing on the strength of a small group of technology companies. He warns that nearly forty percent of individual S&P 500 companies have actually lost value, meaning popular index funds are far less diversified than investors assume, citing the Vanguard Information Technology fund, where ten massive stocks make up over sixty-three percent of holdings. Sexton urges listeners between forty-five and sixty-five, and those already retired, to review what they actually own, build guardrails, and ask whether their portfolio can absorb losses if that concentration unwinds, framing the moment as one for calm adjustment rather than panic.

Voices of Courage with Ken D Foster

S10EP11, Come Home to Nature with Michael Schauch

What happens to the human spirit when we spend our days indoors, online, and overwhelmed? We get louder, faster, and more divided, and we forget the stillness that already lives inside us. In this episode of Voices of Courage, we explore why reconnecting with nature is one of the most powerful things you can do to quiet the mind, open the heart, and remember who you really are.

Host Ken D Foster is joined by alpinist and award-winning author Michael Schauch. He has climbed deep into the Himalaya, and he brings back a message about connection, courage, and what nature can teach us about ourselves.

Michael is a mountaineer, author, and member of the Explorers Club. His first book, A Story of Karma: Finding Love and Truth in the Lost Valley of the Himalaya, was published by Rocky Mountain Books and has earned praise from Wade Davis, Stephen Cope, and Paula Arai, as well as Kirkus Reviews and BlueInk (starred). For over a decade, he has mentored and supported Tibetan Buddhist youth in Kathmandu, Nepal. His writing has appeared in Elephant Journal, Unity Magazine, and Thrive Global. He holds an MBA from Queen's University and lives in Squamish, BC, with his wife, Chantal. His newest book, Anattā: Heart of Wisdom (Hohm Press), weaves contemplative essays and poetry with stories from the Himalaya to explore the Buddhist idea of "non-self" and how nature restores our sense of belonging.

Key Takeaways:
Why is nature a mirror that reveals the patterns of your own mind?
How does stepping into the wild help you reconnect with what truly matters?
What the Buddhist idea of shunyata means, and how it loosens the grip of fixed stories about who you are?
How resolving conflict within yourself is the starting point for peace with others?
Practical ways to quiet the mind, dissolve reactive habits, and respond with compassion
