    "More Than Sorrow" — A Personal Word from Randy (Season 2, Ep. 7)

    Season 2, Episode 7Randy Turpin steps away from his regular format to share a personal update from his parents' home in Princeton, West Virginia. Last Saturday, his mother passed away after a period of hospice care, and in the days since, hundreds have reached out with love, prayers, and support. This episode is his heartfelt response — unscripted, unhurried, and from the heart.Randy reflects on what grief actually feels like when you lose a parent: not just sadness, but something harder to name — like a brick pulled from a wall, leaving everything around it unsettled. He also asks for prayer for his father, Jim, who remains in assisted living and is walking through his own profound loss after 72 years of marriage.This is a quiet, honest moment of connection — no big takeaways, just a pastor and friend checking in, giving thanks, and holding onto the hope of resurrection."We do not grieve as those who have no hope."

    More Than Enough — Plus a Chicken Escape! | Season 2, Ep. 6

    What happens when a quiet morning conversation over coffee turns into a book? In this episode, Dr. Randy Turpin shares the story behind his newest release, More Than Enough: Discovering God's Radical Provision When You Can't See a Way Forward — and why he believes your mindset is your greatest asset, more powerful than anything in your bank account.Randy walks through key themes from the book: what it means to live from abundance rather than scarcity and how your thought life shapes the culture you create around you. This isn't a spreadsheets-and-budgets book — it's a faith book about believing what God says about your circumstances rather than what your circumstances say about themselves.He also shares a life update: caring for both parents now in a nursing home, continuing to mentor doctoral students at Global Awakening Theological Seminary, and keeping the wheels turning on an active season of writing and editing ministry.More Than Enough is available now on Amazon in print and Kindle. Audio and additional ebook platforms are coming soon.Featured Book:More Than Enough: https://declarationpress.com/f/more-than-enough-discovering-god%E2%80%99s-radical-provisionAdditional Resources:Books by Dr. Randy Turpin: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://declarationpress.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dr. Randy Turpin's Sermon Archives: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/5xl2yFP7wNuvmIiLCefOxU?si=4e5824dc27fe4799https://open.spotify.com/show/5xl2yFP7wNuvmIiLCefOxU?si=4e5824dc27fe4799⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book: Daybreak by Henry Longfellow and illustrated by Alycia Janelle: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.amazon.com/Daybreak-Henry-Wadsworth-Longfellow/dp/B0DTZ3K68K/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email questions and feedback to [email protected].

    Beyond Outrage: Finding Peace in Polarized Times | Ep. 46

    Are you losing sleep over political tensions? Has concern turned into obsession? In this candid episode, Dr. Randy Turpin addresses a crisis many believers face but few acknowledge: being consumed by perceived opposition rather than filled with the Holy Spirit.Dr. Turpin explores the spiritual cost of fixating on adversaries—whether political figures, cultural movements, or ideologies—and how this obsession robs us of peace, damages relationships, weakens our witness, and displaces our focus from Christ.

    The Prophetic Anointing | Ep. 45

    In this episode, Dr. Randy Turpin explores the prophetic anointing that God desires to release upon His entire church. Drawing from Numbers 11, Joel 2, and Acts 2, Randy traces how the anointing shifted from one leader (Moses) to 70 elders, and ultimately to all who receive the Holy Spirit.But here's the critical foundation: the prophetic must flow from love. Using 1 Corinthians 13-14, Randy explains that prophetic ministry without love is nothing—it's just noise. When we prophesy in love, we edify, strengthen, encourage, and comfort people. This isn't just about speaking prophetic words—it's about living a prophetic life where everything we do represents heaven on earth. Randy challenges listeners to steward both the natural and supernatural aspects of the prophetic anointing with patience, kindness, and humility.Additional Resources:Dr. Randy Turpin's Sermon Archives: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/5xl2yFP7wNuvmIiLCefOxU?si=4e5824dc27fe4799https://open.spotify.com/show/5xl2yFP7wNuvmIiLCefOxU?si=4e5824dc27fe4799⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book: Daybreak by Henry Longfellow and illustrated by Alycia Janelle: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.amazon.com/Daybreak-Henry-Wadsworth-Longfellow/dp/B0DTZ3K68K/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email questions and feedback to [email protected].

    When You Make Mistakes | Ep. 44

    What if your biggest mistake isn't the one you made—but the risk you never took?In this episode, Dr. Randy Turpin tackles a truth many of us need to hear: people who never make mistakes are people who never accomplish anything. Drawing from the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25, Randy challenges the "bury it and play it safe" mentality that can keep us from stepping into God's purposes.Whether you've made judgment calls you regret, taken risks that didn't pan out, or you're facing a decision that feels uncertain, this message offers both biblical encouragement and practical wisdom. Randy reminds us that God's compassions are new every morning, that the righteous fall seven times but rise again, and that even our missteps can be redeemed for His glory.Featuring reflections on Peter, Moses, David, and Abraham—all flawed risk-takers whom God used powerfully—this episode will help you embrace faith-filled obedience over fear-based safety.Perfect for anyone who needs permission to get back up, keep moving forward, and trust that God's mercy is always enough.Additional Resources:Dr. Randy Turpin's Sermon Archives: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/5xl2yFP7wNuvmIiLCefOxU?si=4e5824dc27fe4799https://open.spotify.com/show/5xl2yFP7wNuvmIiLCefOxU?si=4e5824dc27fe4799⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book: Daybreak by Henry Longfellow and illustrated by Alycia Janelle: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.amazon.com/Daybreak-Henry-Wadsworth-Longfellow/dp/B0DTZ3K68K/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email questions and feedback to [email protected].

    Why Are We So Far Apart?

    Why do Christians who read the same Bible and worship the same God arrive at such vastly different conclusions about faith and politics? In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Randy Turpin tackles a question many believers are wrestling with: "Why are we so far apart?"Responding to a heartfelt message from a high school friend, Dr. Turpin explores the roots of division within Christianity—from misunderstanding biblical context and covenant theology to the dangerous influence of media manipulation.
