Truths That Transform

There has been no greater influence for changing lives than Jesus Christ. And as he has changed individuals, he has also transformed entire civilizations. Dr. Frank Wright offers evidence for Christ's power to change even the most desperate sinner into a new creation. #DJKM #JesusChrist #FrankWright #ChristsPower #NewCreation #Sinner

The US Constitution has proved to be a stabilizing force in human governance like none ever seen before, because it was built on Biblical principles. One of the key principles that the founders agreed on was the Biblical notion of human depravity. We’re all sinners---including those who run the government. Therefore, our Constitution carefully divides power between the different, counteracting branches of government. But what happens when one branch, such as the executive branch, usurps power belonging to the other branches? Find out on this program.

This Memorial Day weekend, we stop to remember all of those who gave their lives for this nation. Countless heroes paid the ultimate price for our freedom. But are we letting it slip away? There is an inextricable link between political freedom and eternal freedom. We have severed that link to our detriment, and as a result, we see a metastasizing national government increasingly usurping our liberties. Even in the military itself, our brave men and women in uniform find themselves under the thumb of left-wing ideologues. On this program, we investigate, and Dr. Kennedy shows us the connection between everlasting freedom and political freedom.

In this special report, you'll meet a Jewish atheist who came to embrace Jesus Christ as that long-promised Messiah, described throughout the Hebrew Bible.

Discover what has made America the place people flock to--even as the freedom and prosperity they’re seeking is eroded by their supposed benefactors. In this special report, a Biblical perspective on the border issue.

Darwinian evolution and its offshoots tell us we're accidental products. There are no givens in this worldview, no fixed absolutes. This has always been the great conceit of Leftism, that human nature is not fixed and is endlessly malleable. Pastor Rob Pacienza looks at the results of this ideological fallacy and offers hope in his "Truths That Transform" commentary.

A look at how progressive culture has hijacked the word "justice" and how the "woke" movement is infiltrating the Church. Know the signs. Watch this "Truths That Transform" special report.

A new year is a time of new beginnings. On today's program, we'll look forward as 2023 is going to be a pivotal year for our nation, and for this ministry. What is the Spiritual State of the Nation? And what can we do about it? By God's grace and with your help, D. James Kennedy Ministries has exciting new plans to address the challenges that face us as a nation. We plan to shine the bright spotlight of Biblical truth on politics through our re-launched D. James Kennedy Center for Christian Statesmanship in Washington, DC. We'll be exposing the attacks of neo-Marxism and reaching a new generation with the vital good news about Jesus Christ in a series of new documentary specials. And we're launching a new podcast, The City of God, --and much, much more.

If you know anything about the state of Colorado, you know that the government there has been on a jihad against people who try to live out their Christian convictions in the sphere of business. Pastor Rob Pacienza looks at the root of Colorado's vendetta in his "Truths That Transform" commentary.

We live in a highly skeptical age. Many in our culture not only doubt the truth now, but even doubt the very possibility of finding truth. Jesus Christ says He IS the truth. But schools and universities teach their students that the Bible is a book of fairytales and ancient religious superstitions. So how do we know what to believe? We’ll investigate some of the most important questions in history. Who—and what—did Jesus claim to be? And can we believe those claims? Can we really know anything certain about Jesus Christ at all? And what does it mean for you?

Abortion has been at the center of our national debate for decades now. But there’s been a lot of confused thinking surrounding it. On this week's "Truths That Transform" program, you’ll discover what the Bible has to say about abortion and the value of human life. And we look at next steps for the pro-life movement in a post-Dobbs world. #ProLife #StandforLife #DobbsDecision #EveryLifeMatters #BibleAndAbortion #BiblicalPerspective #CoralRidgeMinistries #DJKM #TruthsThatTransform

The 2020 election and subsequent events showed us as never before how much power news media and tech companies have over the information that you are allowed to receive. Most Americans know that they are no longer getting the straight story from their news media. But why? We take a closer look at the mysterious George Soros and his influence on the media. Soros's leftist worldview proceeds from the notion that man is basically good, meaning that society can be perfected through good management. But is that true? Dr. Kennedy says, "Read the news headlines to see if mankind is basically good or not; you’ll find ample evidence of what the Bible calls our sinful nature"

For several years, this ministry has been alerting you to the danger of censorship from Silicon Valley big tech companies. That danger was realized during the 2020 elections. We take an inside look in this special report. #DJKM #TruthsThatTransform #Censorship #SiliconValley #BigTech

2022 promises to be a pivotal year in American history. On today’s program, we will share with you our plans for advancing the truth of the Bible, and the Gospel of Jesus Christ, in this year. And you will be encouraged by Dr. Kennedy for what lies ahead. What do we do as Christians when it seems we are boxed in by political correctness and cancel culture? Dr. Kennedy has answers from the book of Exodus. And you will see what this ministry plans to do, with your help, as we Christians advance in the face of adversity in America.

America's founders believed that the freedom to live out our faith was so important that they enshrined it in the First Amendment to the Constitution. But in recent decades, that Amendment has been so twisted in the courts that it is now often used as a justification for depriving people of their religious freedom. On today's program, you'll discover how a culture that increasingly sees Christianity as a threat is working to punish Christians. And you'll meet a high school football coach who was fired for praying a brief, silent prayer on the field after each game. His case goes before the U.S. Supreme Court this week.

There is a major national election coming up in just a few weeks. As we approach that date, we're focusing this month on several major issues of importance to every Bible-believing Christian. This past June, the United States Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade after almost 50 years. We thank God for this ruling, but now that it's been overturned, the work is just beginning. Christians must now do the hard work of convincing our fellow voters of the need to protect the sanctity of human life in our laws. Find out how on this program.

The crowd cheered and music played as President Joe Biden signed into law the so-called "Respect for Marriage Act." But to be clear, this new law is anything but respect for marriage. Pastor Rob Pacienza will tell you why. Watch now!

Many of our biggest cultural battles are about definitions. How do we define things like man, woman, and marriage, and according to what standard? Pastor Rob Pacienza looks at why we can't change what marriage is any more than we can change what gravity is. Watch now!

Cutting ourselves off from anything in our past is what C.S. Lewis referred to as "chronological snobbery"—which is basically the idea that we know everything today, and those who came before us were ignorant and backward. Pastor Rob Pacienza looks at where this arrogant and pervasive attitude is taking us.

In the 20th century, a movement gained dominance which says that the government is supposed to be completely secular, with no reference to God whatsoever. But this contradicts the Bible and misreads the Constitution. So what SHOULD be the connection between God and government? We'll take an in-depth look at that question by examining the world-changing influence that just one Christian can have in the civil government. And Dr. Kennedy explains why Christians not only may, but must be involved in politics.

The resurrection of Jesus is the central event of the Christian faith. One can only dismiss it by ignoring facts and history. Pastor Rob Pacienza shares some of those historical facts and why they happened as they did in his "Truths That Transform" commentary.

On this Easter Sunday, join us for part two of this special documentary program as we go journey into the heart of the Good News that unfolded 2000 years ago. Discover the true Jesus who lived in history, died on the cross, rose from the dead, bodily walked out of the tomb, and calls out to all people everywhere, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." And meet an adherent to Islam who was transformed by an encounter with the living Christ.

Sometimes people think of biblical stories as myths or fairytales. Being in Israel two months ago myself, I was reminded of just how real the events of the Bible are. The Bible is not interested in just setting up a philosophy, or some abstract moral code. Instead it presents us with God working in history—in this very world. You can hear more in this commentary from Pastor Rob Pacienza.

As the nation of Israel celebrates its 75th birthday, we look at the pressures that still exist for this lone-democratic nation in the heart of the Middle East. Take a look at why Israel’s relationship with America, and the ancient events that took place there still matter today on this "Truths That Transform."

Palm Sunday begins the holiest week on the Christian calendar—the week that changed the world. The cross of Jesus Christ, well-attested by the eyewitnesses and chronicled in the trustworthy Biblical manuscripts, is at the very center of the Christian faith. Indeed, it is the pivot of all of history. To the Apostle Paul, it was so important that he told the Corinthian church, “I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.” In this program, we take an in-depth look at the reliability of the Biblical accounts of the events of Holy Week. And what might it have been like to be there, when the God-man, Jesus Christ was nailed to a cross for our sins? Dr. D. James Kennedy gives us a unique experience at the events of Good Friday from the standpoint of one of Jesus’ enemies. #PalmSunday #JesusChrist #ChristianFaith #ApostlePaul #CorinthianChurch #HolyWeek
