Dr. Everett Piper, fmr. President of Oklahoma Wesleyan University returns to the America Held Hostage podcast for a special bonus episode as a roundtable discussion along with Jon, Dylan James (DJ), & Mark Hinton.Join us as we debut a new monthly segment called "Ask Dr. Piper" in this podcast - Topics include how do we deal with "Malakoi" (i.e. soft men) inside ALOT of today's American pulpits, the sad reality that many people don't know their Scripture inside churches, the characteristics that define a Christian man, and are we seeing signs of a mass apostasy in the culture?!

In part 2 of this AHH pod discussion with Pastor Sam Jones, Jon & DJ ask what will it take to outlaw baby murder in America - how do we abolish the stain in our midst of child sacrifice known as abortion? And is it time to criminalize the slaughter of the innocent inside the womb especially if women are transing their kids, pushing pronoun paganism in classrooms across the country, and shouting their abortions as Jezebel Karens who follow demonic lies & show they desperately need Jesus?! 

In this episode of the America Held Hostage Podcast, Jon & DJ discuss the persecuted church around the world but especially in Nigeria with Outreach Director of Equipping the Persecuted, Pastor Sam Jones. Pastor Sam leads us on a journey of tremendous violence, despair, hope, and unwavering faith in Jesus Christ. Men don't run away from hard conversations, they run to them and get in the fight - this is that moment, listen and respond in kind to help and share so others are aware and convicted to help as well.Pastor Sam Jones is also the Senior Pastor at Abundant Life Christian Fellowship in Humboldt, Iowa, works with Iowa Abolitionists, and is an opinion contributor for Blaze Media. Find him on twitter/x @samjones217

In this bonus edition of the America Held Hostage podcast, Jon and DJ discuss the sin of being "Malakoi" aka a soft/effeminate man.They discuss the fall from grace of "Pastor" Sam Allberry, a gay man who confessed to having an inappropriate relationship with another man after being platformed by The Gospel Coalition, Desiring God, The SBC, Tim Keller, David Platt, Matt Chandler, and Russell Moore over the last decade.Both Jon and DJ discuss what Malakoi means and then use this news as the catalyst to call out Christian men to step up their game and stop being soft in their own Faith. Looking back at their own experiences, both Jon and DJ urge men in America to stop making excuses and start looking in the mirror as to why the downfall of America can be laid mostly on Passive/Soft Men both inside and outside the church.

In part 2 of this in-depth discussion on the America Held Hostage podcast, Jon and DJ talk about Iran and how Trump may have walked himself into a covid like trap. Then both guys switched topics and talked about how redistricting might not help the GOP as much as they think, plus Vrabel and Russini need Jesus and multiple rooms evidently. But as always be sure your sins will find you out.

In part 1 of this two part in-depth discussion, Jon and DJ begin to talk about the alien distraction before turning to how technology may have made us more wicked as a society, how it may be a portal to demonic activity, and how wickedness continues to go unpunished but has led to a massive Christian revival among young adults due in part to the failures & GOVT abuses of power during covid.

In part 2 of Christian parenting, the AHH podcast digs into the role of fathers as Spiritual Leaders of the home, how they set the tone for the household, what is needed to be done intentionally to love your children well and teach them the Faith.We share resources, experiences, wisdom and insight that we hope inspires and encourages parents to do more than the bare minimum or keep up with the joneses.

Jon and DJ are joined by Jon's Dad, Mark to discuss the need in a decaying culture to teach/raise your children in the "fear and admonition of the Lord." All 3 men in the America Held Hostage podcast discuss why teaching and parenting shouldn't be outsourced to government indoctrination centers known as public schools. They then turn to what parents should navigate in this culture, what parents need to be aware of as the culture continues its moral decay, and what resources can be used in this cultural hour to "train up a child in the way he should go, so that when he is old he will not depart from it."

The parallels to today are striking in this America Held Hostage throwback podcast. We take you back to the Summer of 2020 as Riots broke out across the country and we found out how organized Antifa was before ICE. Uncle Merle Hinton (aka Uncle Freighttrain) and Mark Hinton cry out for justice and plead for the US government to punish wickedness across the country. All 3 Hinton men emplore the Church to take a bold and righteous stand regardless of the outcome against wickedness run amok, doing so with eternity in Mind. The podcast in retrospect sounds like prophecy, listen as a warning to prepare for what's already here and coming again soon.

While Dylan James (aka DJ) nurses a lost voice, Jon pilots the America Held Hostage podcast solo with a special guest from his Iowa Radio days - Fmr. WHO Radio producer/host Ross Peterson. Jon and Ross discuss the Jaden Ivey/NBA Pride fiasco, which snowballed into a scandalous affair being exposed in the NFL after a NE Patriots player came to Ivey's defense for standing boldly upon the Word of God. The Idolatry and Hypocrisy laid bare for all to see in this sports story brings about a conversation that shows why a Biblical Worldview is so important.The discussion centers around how Christians in America can knowingly/unknowingly abuse the Grace of God by living in a 50 Shades of Grey culture which allows them to explain away their sinful habits rather than crucifying them to the Cross of Christ.Finally, Jon and Ross discuss how their own Fathers displayed the Grace/Mercy of Jesus Christ in how each of them were raised, and why Godly Men are so important in restoring the Church in the West and America as a whole to her former glory.

In this episode of the America Held Hostage podcast, Jon and DJ briefly discuss another failed assassination attempt on President Trump and both parlay that discussion into "contending for the Faith given once for all to the saints" - Jude.Both men then with Zeal, go on to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ with help from Marco Rubio and Chad Prather as the Remnant begins to rise! 

In this emergency podcast, Jon and DJ discuss breaking news in real time as another assassination attempt on President Trump's life is thwarted at the White House Correspondents Dinner. The guys discuss how this is a sign of Isaiah 1 judgment. How 40+ yrs of soft woke pastors and churches have led us to this critical hour in America. And that the only way out now is through unless we as a remnant of Believers call out for forgiveness for our sins and the sins of our fathers. 

In this Bonus throwback episode of the America Held Hostage podcast, Jon is joined by his Father, Mark and his now late Uncle Merle (aka Uncle FreightTrain) for a discussion that turned out to be truly prophetic then & now. All 3 Hinton men discuss how cowardice inside churches brings judgment upon nations, how weak leadership leads nations into chaos and ruin, that demonic attacks are allowed in a culture by God to sift His sheep from goats, and spur on courage in the people of God who discern what time it is (aka that we are "made for such a time as this"). Then Jon finishes the podcast with his eulogy to his Late Uncle that includes the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Enjoy this timeless, lively, and fun discussion that is sure to spur others on toward Love and Good Deeds.

In this in-depth, longform episode of the America Held Hostage podcast, Dr. Everett Piper of the Rebellion podcast joins the program to offer his expert analysis on a variety of topics concerning the Christian Church in America. What has happened to education in the West? Why is Tucker Carlson apostacizing the Christian Faith he claims to care for just like a godless leftist? What is syncretism and how has the Pope blasphemed the faith as the Vicker of Christ by embracing it? What is a Biblical Worldview and how without it - we are now a society that is nihilistic, overly comfortable and on the brink of cultural suicide.

In this episode of America Held Hostage, Jon and DJ discuss "The Fear of the Lord." What is it? Why is it so important to the life of the Christian believer? And what are we missing out on when we love our own McJesus, and don't fear the Christ of the Scriptures. Plus what can we learn from a clogged drain that helps to unclog our own souls - Listen to find out more.

On this episode of the America Held Hostage podcast, Jon and DJ pay tribute to the late, great Charlie Kirk. Drawing from their own personal experience in their walk with the Lord, looking to Scripture and also taking a look back at old CK clips - the definition of what a real Christian Man should look like comes into focus quickly in this episode. The episode deals with the hard truths that Christian men in our culture struggle with like Boldness, Courage, Conviction, standing for the Truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ no matter the cost with brother, neighbor, family, friend and foe alike. #TheRemnantLives

This 3rd installment of the America Held Hostage podcast goes there - Israel! Are the Jews the synagogue of Satan? Has God replaced "His Chosen People?" Is Tucker Carlson right about the Book of Esther? What does Scripture tell Christians about Israel and the Church?Jon and DJ sit down for an in depth discussion with Jon's Dad - Mark Hinton. As a Fmr. Christian Missionary and Worship Pastor with over 40 yrs experience plus a B.A. in Christian Ed. from Lee University, Mark lends his wisdom and Biblical insight to correct the lies of the PsyOp most "Christians" don't know they are in. Plus Jon's Zealous Meltdown at the end is a classic must listen with nods of agreement from Jon's Wife - "The Amen Corner!"

On the 2nd installment of the America Held Hostage podcast, Jon & DJ discuss what is the Church? Why is the Church still important in America today? What are the marks of a healthy church? What is the Church supposed to look like according to Scripture? What functions/roles is the Church Biblically called to undertake in a culture according to Christ? And finally, is the Church a building or the people?

It's time to saddle up and ride........as the debut edition of the America Held Hostage podcast covers what is truth, why does it matter in our culture still today, and why does Tucker Carlson think that he can go full Marcion heresy while bastardizing/twisting Scripture while acting like most of you won't notice?! Jon and DJ also discuss why Biblical masculinity still matters in the West, why Jesus came into the world, and what standing boldly for the Gospel in a post truth culture held hostage by lies looks like moving forward.

As we finalize our technological difficulties occurring in other parts of the country, we continue with AHH throwback podcasts that are still relevant today as much as they were 6 yrs ago. In this episode, we take you back to Jon's interview with Radio Commentator and Conservative Activist Shannon Joy of Western NY. They discuss the godless left's physical intimidation tactics and violent threats during covid, the lack of principled manhood in America who for the most part did nothing to stop what was happening all around them, and the utter cowardice of most pastors/parishioners who rather than Stand Boldly upon the Gospel bowed to a spirit of fear and hopelessness in the day of trouble. Jon then finishes with a fire commentary on the way moving forward inspired by Dr. Voddie Baucham that still applies to this day. 

As we continue to update our hardware and software to bring you the relaunch of the America Held Hostage podcast, we take you back to May of 2020 and Jon's interview with Kyle Mann of the Babylon Bee. Join Jon and Kyle as they revisit the BLM riots of George Floyd in Minneapolis and how the spirit of age showed its woke hypocrisy then as it still does today. They also talk about how the Babylon Bee put their Christian faith into action to help those in need during Wu-Flu lockdowns. Finally, both men discuss how to navigate these trying times in a Post-Christian America that resembles Babylon more than it does a promised land of freedom & liberty. It's a relevant discussion to ponder that rings more true now than it did 6 yrs ago.

While we workout technical difficulties for the initial relaunch the America Held Hostage podcast, we take you back to July 2020 and a discussion that is still pertinent even today. Dr. Everett Piper, the fmr. President of Oklahoma Wesleyan University, joined the show to discuss with Jon why the American Church had become so scroteless in an age of lockdowns, how America's education system has failed an entire generation, why church discipline and rebuking/correcting the flock is sorely needed for those who walk with BLM (wokeness), how the Western Church in large has been taken captive by unbiblical/deceptive philosophies, and what real men/leaders need to do now in churches across America.
