In this episode, I’m joined by Steve Gregg for a thoughtful discussion on Israel, the Church, and what the Bible actually calls Christians to believe regarding the modern nation of Israel. Many Christians have been taught that supporting modern Israel politically is a biblical obligation, but is that what Scripture teaches? Throughout this conversation, we examine the relationship between Old Testament Israel and the New Testament people of God, how biblical promises should be understood in light of Christ, and whether passages commonly used to defend unconditional support for Israel are being interpreted correctly. We also discuss how Christians can avoid both hostility toward Jewish people and unquestioning political allegiance, while still maintaining a Gospel-centered perspective. Ultimately, the conversation returns to a central Christian conviction: that all people—Jew and Gentile alike—stand in need of Christ. This episode is a careful and Scripture-focused exploration of one of the most debated theological and political questions in modern evangelicalism.

In this episode, I’m joined by Merrill Greene, author of The Weirdness of God, to explore why so much of the Bible feels strange to modern readers—and why that strangeness may actually be essential to understanding Scripture properly. Many Christians today approach the Bible with modern assumptions about the world, which can make some passages feel confusing, uncomfortable, or even embarrassing. Greene argues that instead of smoothing over these moments, believers should lean into them. The “weird” elements of the Bible—from supernatural realities to unexpected ways God acts—reveal a worldview that is far richer and more mysterious than the one many modern readers bring to the text. Throughout the conversation, we discuss why attempts to domesticate God often lead to a shallow reading of Scripture, and how recovering the Bible’s strange and supernatural context can deepen our faith and reshape how we understand God’s character and work in the world. This episode invites listeners to reconsider the parts of the Bible that seem unfamiliar and to see them not as problems to solve, but as invitations to encounter the depth and mystery of the God revealed in Scripture.

In this episode, I’m joined by David Miller to discuss the necessity of biblical church government and discipline in a time when many churches are facing leadership failures and public scandal. Rather than focusing on personalities alone, we examine the structural issues that allow harm to spread unchecked. From false prophecy and platform protection to moral failure and abuse of authority, we explore how the absence of meaningful oversight, plurality of elders, and enforceable church discipline has contributed to widespread damage within parts of the charismatic movement. But this is not merely a charismatic problem. We argue that the broader evangelical church must recover serious, biblical models of governance and accountability if it hopes to move forward with credibility and faithfulness. Healthy church government is not about control—it is about protecting the flock, preserving doctrinal integrity, and ensuring leaders themselves are subject to authority. This conversation looks beyond scandal and asks a deeper question: what kind of church structures are necessary to prevent these failures in the future?

We discuss: • What practical, everyday evangelism actually looks like • Why apologetics plays a crucial role in reaching skeptics • The freedom that comes from remembering you don’t save anyone—God does • The responsibility we still carry to speak, engage, and step out in obedience Too many Christians stay silent because they think they need all the answers. This conversation makes it clear: you don’t need perfection—you need faithfulness. Your job is proclamation. God handles regeneration.

Use code CharismaticCheetah for 5% off your order at https://www.treintacoffee.com/ In this episode, we address the growing controversy surrounding Joel Webbon and the deeply troubling remarks that have sparked renewed attention on kinism. We walk through what kinism actually teaches, why it is unbiblical, and why it is not just a theological error—but a morally corrosive ideology that cuts against the heart of the gospel. Joining me is Reformed Rican from the Providence Perspective YouTube channel. Together, we aim to bring clarity to a debate that has become increasingly heated online, separating biblical Christianity from ethnic partiality, and explaining how the church ended up at this crossroads. This conversation is not about outrage farming. It’s about truth, discernment, and guarding the church from ideologies that masquerade as “orthodoxy” while denying the very image of God in our neighbor. 🔗 Check out Providence Perspective on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@providenceperspective Special thanks to those who continue to support this work: Fort Graham Baptist Church – https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100080161197294 Presbyterian Panda – https://www.facebook.com/PresbyPanda Shelden Young 🛒 Charismatic Cheetah Merch Support the show and rep the channel: https://charismatic-cheetah.printify.me/ If you found this discussion helpful, consider sharing it.

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. William Lile, also known as The ProLife Doc, for a medically grounded discussion on abortion, the abortion pill, and Plan B. We focus on what abortion actually is, cutting through cultural talking points and euphemisms. Dr. Lile explains the key differences between Plan B and the abortion pill, how each works biologically, and why those differences matter both medically and morally. We also address the risks abortion pills pose to women’s health—especially when taken without proper medical oversight. From excessive bleeding and infection to other serious complications, this conversation challenges the claim that chemical abortion is “safe and simple.” Finally, we discuss abortion pill reversal: what it is, when it may be possible, and why timing and medical accuracy are critical. This portion is handled carefully, offering clarity without exaggeration and hope without false promises. This is a sober, honest conversation rooted in medicine, biology, and a consistent pro-life ethic—spoken plainly and without apology.

What happens when deliverance ministry doesn’t bring relief—despite sincere prayer, faith, and pastoral care? In this episode, I’m joined by David M. Miller, author of Redacted, and Michael Miller of The Remnant Radio for a thoughtful, pastoral conversation about the limits of deliverance ministry and the harm that can occur when expectations aren’t handled carefully. Rather than focusing on success stories, this discussion centers on the situations many pastors and believers quietly face: misdiagnosis, theological confusion, and discouragement when prayer doesn’t lead to immediate change. We talk about discernment, suffering, sanctification, and what faithfulness looks like when freedom doesn’t come the way we hoped. This episode is for pastors, ministry leaders, and everyday Christians who want clarity without hype—and care without blame.   Special thanks to Presbyterian Panda and Fort Graham Baptist Church for their support. https://www.facebook.com/PresbyPanda Fort Graham Baptist Church https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100080161197294

In this episode, I talk with Michael Ray Lewis, director of the documentary Universe Designed. Michael was an atheist who didn’t set out to find faith. But as he examined arguments from cosmology, design, and philosophy, he ran into questions atheism couldn’t adequately answer. Following the evidence wherever it led forced him to take Christianity seriously. This is a grounded, honest conversation about faith and reason—without hype, emotional manipulation, or shallow talking points. We discuss why science doesn’t eliminate God, why Christianity makes specific truth claims, and what it means to follow evidence with intellectual integrity. 🎬 Watch the documentary Universe Designed: https://universedesigned.com/watch-universe-designed/

In today’s episode, I sit down with Keith Foskey to talk about baptism — what it is, why it matters, and why it is absolutely not optional for followers of Jesus. We walk through the historic Baptist perspective found in the 1646 London Baptist Confession, a view far richer and more serious than what many modern Baptists hold today. Keith breaks down what early Baptists believed baptism actually does, why they refused to treat it as a throwaway symbol, and how Scripture ties baptism directly to obedience, discipleship, and identification with Christ and His church. We also address the hard questions: If baptism doesn’t save, what does it do? Did early Baptists believe baptism had spiritual significance? Why do so many churches treat baptism casually? Can someone truly follow Jesus while refusing baptism? What happens when churches recover a biblical, historic view of the ordinance? This is a straightforward, Scripture-centered conversation meant to cut through modern confusion and return to what the Bible — and the early Baptists — actually taught. 🔗 Guests & Friends Keith Foskey https://keithfoskey.com/ Fort Graham Baptist Church (Pastor Brian Hills) https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100080161197294 Presbyterian Panda https://www.facebook.com/PresbyPanda Shoutout to Shelden Young for their support! 🛒 Merch Store Support the podcast here: https://charismatic-cheetah.printify.me/

This episode features a rich, honest conversation with Dr. Sam Storms on the nature of faith — especially as it relates to healing, spiritual gifts, and God’s sovereignty. We explore how faith functions in the life of a believer who wants to pursue the power of the Holy Spirit without drifting into Word of Faith teaching or performance-based spirituality. Topics we cover: • Biblical faith vs. “faith in faith” • Why Jesus honored faith in healing — but not as a formula • How Calvinists should think about healing and miracles • Faith’s role in prophecy and spiritual gifts • Handling disappointment when healing doesn’t come • Living with expectancy while fully trusting God’s sovereign timing This conversation will challenge, comfort, and strengthen anyone who wants a Spirit-filled life anchored in Scripture.

What does it really mean that Jesus is both fully God and fully man? How can He be omnipotent and eternal, yet hunger, sleep, and experience pain? In this episode, Michael sits down with Lee Jones, co-host of the podcast Redemption Meditations, for a deep yet approachable conversation on the hypostatic union — the mystery of Christ’s two natures united in one Person. We cover: What the hypostatic union actually means (John 1:14; Philippians 2:6-8) Why Jesus sometimes seemed to “not know” things (Mark 5:30; Mark 13:32; John 11:11-14) Whether He laid aside His divine attributes Why it’s essential to hold His humanity and divinity in perfect balance And how understanding this truth transforms our faith, worship, and view of salvation This conversation is packed with insight for beginners and theology pros alike — challenging, clarifying, and deeply encouraging. 👉 Learn more about the Hypostatic Union: Theological Primer by Kevin DeYoung (The Gospel Coalition) 🦁 Check out Lee’s podcast: Redemption Meditations 👕 Grab a Michael Heiser T-shirt or other Charismatic Cheetah merch to support the show: charismatic-cheetah.printify.me

Are psychic abilities like remote viewing, telepathy, and clairvoyance actually remnants of Adam’s pre-Fall gifts? In this episode, Michael Young (Charismatic Cheetah Podcast) interviews Matthew C. McGuire about his article exploring the provocative thesis of Abbot Alois Wiesinger, a Catholic theologian who believed paranormal powers are atrophied functions of the human soul—intended to be redeemed by grace. We discuss: What remote viewing and other psychic abilities actually are The surprising religious origins of parapsychology Whether Christians should be involved in practices like remote viewing Wiesinger’s conclusions about “loosening the soul” What Augustine and C.S. Lewis had to say about mystical and psychic experiences Real-world programs like the U.S. government’s Star Gate psychic spy project How Christians can discern true mysticism from pseudomysticism And why this topic matters in the modern supernatural conversation If you're into fringe theology, parapsychology, spiritual gifts, and Christian discernment—this episode is for you. 🔗 Matthew C.

In this episode of the Charismatic Cheetah Podcast, host Michael Young sits down with author and researcher J. Steve Miller to explore the mysterious and often controversial world of near-death experiences (NDEs). Are these powerful moments evidence of life after death, hallucinations caused by a dying brain, or something more deceptive? We discuss how NDEs relate to the Christian worldview, whether they align with biblical teaching, and what they might reveal about God, the soul, and eternity. Topics include: The most compelling NDE accounts Steve has studied How skeptics explain NDEs—and where those explanations fall short Whether NDEs support universalism or point to the God of the Bible How Christians can engage this topic without falling into deception Whether you're a believer, skeptic, or just curious about what happens after we die, this conversation will challenge and encourage you. 🎙️ Guest: J.

In this episode, I’m joined by Ryan Denton to talk about hyper-cessationism—what it is, how it differs from historic Reformed cessationism, and where it stands in relation to moderate continuationism. We dive into what the Reformers and Puritans actually believed about prophecy, dreams, and divine revelation. Did they really believe all gifts had ceased? The answer might surprise you.   📚 We also explore how today’s popular cessationism may be more rigid—and less biblical—than what the Westminster divines taught.   🛒 Support the show and grab exclusive Charismatic Cheetah merch: https://charismatic-cheetah.printify.me/ 🙏 Support on Patreon: https://ryandenton.com/   #Cessationism #Continuationism #ReformedTheology #CharismaticCheetah #RyanDenton #ChurchHistory #Puritans #WestminsterConfession #SpiritualGifts

In this episode, I’m joined by New Testament scholar and author James Snapp Jr. to tackle the controversy surrounding the so-called "long ending" of Mark’s Gospel—Mark 16:9–20. This was originally intended to be a single episode, but as we dug deeper into Snapp’s responses and the overwhelming amount of evidence he brings to the table, it became clear this needed to be a two-parter. Part One is focused on directly responding to the claims made by Wes Huff in his recent video arguing against the authenticity of Mark 16:9–20. Part Two (coming soon) will feature a full presentation from James Snapp Jr. as he lays out his positive case for why the long ending is original—complete with manuscript data, early church references, and more.

On May 25, 2025, Michael Young preached this sermon at Fort Graham Baptist Church in Whitney, TX, exploring the rich prophetic promises of Isaiah 35. This message dives into the hope of the New Creation, the restoration of all things, and the ultimate return of Christ. Drawing connections between the sorrow of this present age and the joy that awaits God’s people, Michael unpacks how Isaiah 35 paints a vivid picture of the coming Kingdom—where the blind see, the lame leap, and everlasting joy crowns the redeemed. The sermon also addresses God's justice and mercy, the significance of Christ as the "Way of Holiness," and the believer's call to strengthen one another and expand the boundaries of Eden as salt and light in a broken world. Whether you’re weary from suffering, longing for justice, or eager for the return of the King, this message will stir your heart with hope for the New Earth promised in Christ. 📍 Preached at: Fort Graham Baptist Church 📅 Date: May 25, 2025 🎙️ Speaker: Michael Young 🔔 Subscribe for more sermons, theology, and biblical insight from Michael Young and the Charismatic Cheetah Podcast.

🎙️ Can you be both Charismatic and Calvinist? Today on the Charismatic Cheetah Podcast, I’m joined by Michael Rowntree of Remnant Radio to tackle a topic that confuses and sometimes even divides believers: Charismatic Calvinism. We break down what Calvinism actually is, how it can be consistent with the continuation of spiritual gifts, and how a high view of God’s sovereignty doesn’t mean abandoning things like prophecy, healing, or tongues. We also dive into some spicy listener-submitted questions—like whether God predestines people to hell, and how election relates to the baptism in the Holy Spirit. 👀 Whether you’re Reformed, Arminian, charismatic, cessationist—or just curious—this episode will challenge your thinking and encourage deeper faith. 📲 Support the Show Want to help keep episodes like this coming?

UFOs are a topic much discussed in secular circles all across the globe. They are also a hot topic within the church. However, historically the church has done a disservice by dismissing UFO phenomena, or just saying they are "just demons". But bury our heads in the sand all we want, these phenomena are happening and happily being addressed by the History channel and now even mainstream science. This is a topic we must look at from a Christian worldview. Acclaimed author, speaker, and film maker LA Marzulli will be coming on to discuss UFOs and more. I can almost guarantee he Nephilim will come up too!
