In this podcast, Pastor Brad looks into the three rebellions we see in the Scriptures, from the serpent being in the Garden of Eden to the gods of the nations. This topic will help you to better understand the principalities and powers Paul was addressing in the letter to the Ephesians.Let's learn. Let's grow. And, let's walk in the victory Jesus has already provided for us.God's Best...Pastor Brad

Humanity is dust, but when the Breath (Rüach) of God enters that dust, we become living beings. God's imagers.Gnosticism offers a knowledge path that leads us unto death, but through God's Spirit we are given wisdom, discernment, and life.Thanks for joining us this week!www.BradRiley.netwww.FaithChapelag.net

Come on! The second week of refreshing our understanding of the rebellious "Ben ha Elohim" of Genesis Six.This is interesting and fascinating stuff. We hope you enjoy our study of some of the weird/unusual and deep stuff in the ScripturesAll the Best,Pastor Bradwww.bradriley.netwww.faithchapelag.net

What's up Spirit Realm Family?!So many times Pastor Brad is asked about the beings discussed in Psalm 82, the transgressions of Genesis 6, and even the context of Jesus' words in John 10; when He stated, "I called you gods."It is a fascinating subject and what started as a one week topic quickly developed into a two week mini-series.Enjoy the next two weeks as Pastor Brad delves into this topic and exposes the Biblical understanding that can too often be overlooked.www.bradriley.netwww.faithchapelag.com

What an incredible story--The Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead!The spirit realm shook, the rebellious ben ha Elohim were defeated, and God's imagers were given hope again.Let's spend a second week talking about the event that changed the Heavens and the Earth!Jesus is Risen...

This week, Pastor Brad launches a two-week mini series on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.The resurrection of Jesus from the dead changes everything!We will look at some of the resurrection proofs that will strengthen your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.Jesus is Risen.

We hope you are learning, growing, and enjoying our walk through 1 John. The heresies and teachings John was addressing with the early church are still an issue for the current church.Aren't you thankful we have God's word to turn to for answers and direction?!All the Best...

Pastor Brad steps back into 1 John and digs into the truths the Apostle John is bringing to God's people.This is a really encouraging message to Christ followers. Yet, John challenges us to turn from the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and pride of life. It's a challenge that is still timely for us today.God bless each and everyone of you!www.bradriley.net

Pastor Brad sat down at the mic to start discussing Gnosticism and the way it influences the modern church...and the next thing we knew, his "pastoral hat" was on as he discussed a lot of the challenges that we are currently facing in our world.Eventually, he addressed some of the topics from 1 John, but this became a very timely message for God's people.God's best to each of you,www.bradriley.net

One of Pastor Brad's most requested episodes is about Paul commanding women to cover their hair. But, Paul adds the most unusual ending to the sentence, "because of the angels."This is a deep dive into some interesting stuff that was believed at the time of the writing to the Corinthian church.Let's go deep this week and enjoy the journey.PB

This week, we decided to throw back to Pastor Brad's very first time to be on the radio...he introduced the Three Rebellions and gave a nice overview of the Spirit Realm.We hope you enjoy the throwback and thanks for being a faithful part of our Podcast Community.

We have been examining some verses to help us wrap our minds around what it might look like or be like when a believer in Christ passes from this life to the next life.We talk about Abraham's Bosom, Paradise, Heaven, and more.This is such an encouraging episode and there is a really interesting story with quite the twist in our third segment.We hope you enjoy the show this week!Pastor Brad

God's Word gives us some insight into what "it" looks like when a Christ-follower dies.In this episode, Pastor Brad looks into the Scriptures to help us wrap our minds around this moment. We will all face this moment and it would be nice to have some better understanding of it.All God's Best to Each of you,PB

This week is challenging; convicting."God is Light and in Him is no darkness at all!"Gnostics claim God is evil, physical things are evil, and hidden esoteric knowledge is the true way to salvation.John claims God is Light, Jesus put on flesh, He will teach us all things and He is the only way to salvation.Let's go for it in this episode!PB

We continue gaining insight from the beloved apostle John to help us stay connected to the genuine, the authentic, the real, and the Son of God; Jesus.So many spiritual journeys lead to a trap...Jesus will only lead us to freedom and life everlasting.What a great opportunity to grow in greater grace and relationship with Jesus.Pastor Brad :)

We hope everyone is making it through the most recent weather challenges that have swept across much of the United States and we trust our International audience is safe and well.Pastor Brad continues his look into 1 John as the dear apostle was helping the church to face the dangers of Gnosticism.The enemy always offers "a tree" that will give us spiritual knowledge outside of God's path, but ultimately, it will always lead to destruction.God bless each and every one of you!Pastor Bradwww.bradriley.net

The world's culture is promoting every possible spiritual avenue--except the Only Way to the Father, Jesus.It isn't a new problem; it's an old problem.From the Garden of Eden the serpent has been offering a hidden knowledge to "be like God," which has always proved to be an empty esoteric invitation.We are going to spend some time in our next few shows learning how the apostle John addressed these things to the church.We hope you enjoy this time...Pastor Brad

If it's weird, it matters. The visible is temporary and the invisible is eternal. Waiting on the Lord is about serving Him and not sitting around. His kingdom is not only proclaimed, but it is also demonstrated.Pastor Brad hits a variety of topics as he does his show this week. Perhaps his ADD was firing or perhaps he was being led by the Spirit...you be the judge. Have a great week...

Pastor Brad isn't one for trying to have a new revelation or a new prophetic word for the New Year. However, he did take this first episode of 2026 to challenge us in some of the basic things in our Spiritual Walk.Grab your Bibles and get ready to look into:Isaiah 40:28-31Matthew 10:7-8Matthew 11:1-7Have an incredible Day and a Great Start to your New Year!www.BradRiley.net

JESUS.The Only Son of the Most-High God pierced the darkness. He is the fulfillment of the Bond-Servant who was willing to pierce his ear in loyal relationship. We hope you had a fantastic Christmas and that this podcast encourages you today. :)All the best...Pastor Bradwww.bradriley.net

Pastor Brad continues focusing on how Jesus, the Son of the Most-High God, pierced the darkness!Nothing compares to our King of kings, and our Lord of lords; this season reminds us that there is absolutely nothing our God can't do.Have an amazing week!Pastor Bradwww.bradriley.net

What's Up Spirit Realm Fam!We hope you LOVE this week's episode. Pastor Brad launches into the subject of "Piercing The Darkness" for the Season of Advent.God spoke, "Let there be light," over the surface of the deep and light appeared. Light happens in the supernatural before it happens in the natural. God's Word is Light.Jesus is God's Word made flesh...no wonder He is the Light of the world.This episode will encourage you, build you up in your most-holy faith, and remind you that God is not even challenged by darkness. After all, the devil himself is not even a challenge for the Most-High (Elyon) God (Elohim)!All the Best...www.BradRiley.net

Pastor Brad goes deep into the First Advent...the first coming of Jesus, the Son of the Most-High God.We look into some incredible spirit realm principles surrounding the birth of Jesus.Grab your Bibles; we will dig into:Psalm 82Exodus 20Genesis 3 & 6It's going to be a great time!

Pastor Brad took a week off from our 2 Timothy series to reflect on thankfulness.Do you want to access God's Presence in the Spirit realm?God's Word gives us the guidance--"Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise!"We hope you enjoy this episode and we really hope you enter into the Presence of the Most-High.www.bradriley.net

Hey Friends!We have a special Spirit Realm episode for you this week!Pastor Brad was connected to Noel Kenny from Dublin, Ireland over a decade ago. They have ministered together, they have encouraged one another and they have had the opportunity of ministering in each other's churches.Pastor Noel has an amazing testimony of God's kindness and faithfulness. Noel was in America to spend time with dear friends and to encourage the people of Faith Chapel. Pastor Brad asked him to join him on the radio to share God's story in his life.They needed so much more time--but we certainly hope Noel's story will be an encouragement to you! All God's Best to You,www.BradRiley.net

Pastor Brad continues diving into Paul's last letter in the Scriptures--this one was written to his son in the faith, Timothy.Paul gave Timothy insights that he needed and we need them for the days in which we live.Be Blessed!Pastor Brad :) www.BradRiley.net

In this episode of Spirit Realm, Pastor Brad is in his second week of our series through 2 Timothy.After a brief recap of the week before, Pastor Brad spends the majority of the time sharing some spiritual truths and challenges from 2 Timothy 1:9; you will learn about the fascinating Greek word "prothesis."By the time the episode is complete, we will be nearly done with the first chapter of this incredible letter; it was timely for Timothy and it is timely for us.All the best!www.BradRiley.net

In this episode, Pastor Brad shares a few thoughts from his heart as the show gets started.When we enter into the third segment, he is systematically walking us through Paul's 2nd letter to Timothy, his son in the faith.It is such an encouraging letter for our challenging times. We hope you are strengthened in your faith and encouraged in your walk with our Eternal King.All the best,www.bradriley.net

Who would have known, when Pastor Brad started his series two weeks ago addressing some of the challenges and persecutions Christians face for Jesus, that Charlie Kirk would have been killed in the public square? He spoke for Jesus. He spoke up for life and identity in the way God created them--male and female.Our series on 2 Timothy is timely.We hope this encourages you today!

Pastor Brad went to the studio on the morning of 9/11/25 to record this episode of Spirit Realm. And, for the first two segments he felt like the Lord wanted him to talk about God's new mercies that are available to each of us; even during the most difficult times.We had know idea that Charlie Kirk would be murdered (martyred) just a few hours after recording.The episode of Spirit Realm is launching us into a new series--for the next few weeks, we are going to walk through 2 Timothy together. It was the last letter Paul wrote before he was murdered (martyred) for his message of hope in Jesus Christ.In the middle of darkness, light shines the brightest. It was true when Paul wrote his letter and it is just as true today.May God bless each of you; may He give you mercy, peace, and wisdom in everything you face.

This week, Pastor Brad is back with a timely message that is sure to encourage you; it reveals the love of the Most-High and the radical way the Kingdom of Heaven pursues after the imagers of God.We pray it brings hope and grace to each of you!All God's Best...www.BradRiley.net

This episode is a one year anniversary celebration of "The Spirit Realm with Pastor Brad" on the Real Talk Radio Network.We thank those who have made this podcast possible. We tell some of the Faith Chapel story and we look at the value of lost things. We talk about the value of lost people to our Most-High God.We don't want to carry the spirit and attitude of the older brother (Luke 15). We want to carry the heart of The Father!Happy One-Year Anniversary to the veterans and welcome to those who have just discovered the podcast.All the Best!www.bradriley.net

This is the last episode in a four-part series about the power of our speaking.Our speaking carries tremendous authority:We can use it for life or we can use it for death.We can bless or we can curse.We can ask God to help us tame our speaking or we can allow it to run wild and cause harm and damage to others.Let's wrap up this series about the power of our words, and then, let's apply what we have learned.All God's Best to you,Pastor Bradwww.BradRiley.net

Can you believe it?This is our 50th Episode; our Jubilee Podcast!Pastor Brad continues in his timely series about how Life & Death is in the Tongue.We must use our speaking for God's purpose to activate what He desires in the Spirit Realm.Feel free to leave a comment if this episode is an encouragement to you.All God's Best,Pastor Bradwww.BradRiley.net

This week, Pastor Brad continues his teaching on the power of our speaking.Our words carry life and death power and they influence the spiritual and the natural realm; using your words with wisdom is a key to your victory over darkness.We hope this encourages you and equips you for better living moving forward!All the Best...www.BradRiley.net

Proverbs states, "The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit."God spoke and light was created. He spoke and the waters separated and dry land appeared. The power of His spoken Word changes everything.When you partner your words with God's Word--He will send forth His angels to make certain it is accomplished.In this episode, Pastor Brad begins exploring the power of our speaking and the way it activates the supernatural principles and promises.All God's best to each of you and thanks for being a part of the Coffee and Spirits family.Connect with our Host: www.BradRiley.net

In this episode, Pastor Brad takes us back to the original ministry of Jesus-the Only Begotten of the Most-High God.Jesus brought and taught the "Kingdom."Jesus was moved with "Compassion."Jesus said to pray for workers to be "Cast Out" into the Harvest.If you have grown a little tired of religion, let's take a fresh look into what Jesus really proclaimed and performed while on earth.All the Best,www.BradRiley.net

One of the ways we gain access into the Spirit Realm is through prayer--Isaiah even prophesied that every "ethnos" would have joy in the house of prayer.No wonder Yeshua was so angry that the Gentiles had been kept from the Most-High. Many had come to seek God, and the corruption of the religious system was another blockade to them rather than onramp to His Presence.Pastor Brad sheds light on how Jesus hates it when the people of the nations are hindered from experiencing the Presence of God; not just by the rebellious "ben ha Elohim" but people who should be opening the door to others.PraySeekand Pursue the Most-High God.www.BradRiley.net

When tragedy strikes...God is blamed. It is a common theme.Yet, God's Word declares the thief is the one who tries to steal, kill, and destroy.God's Word affirms the heavens belong to the Lord and He has entrusted the earth to the sons of men.The Scriptures teach us the Most-High God cannot even be tempted to do the wrong thing.Let's take an episode to remind ourselves of the goodness of God and to give us a better perspective when we face the challenges of life.All the Best,www.BradRiley.net

This podcast moves quickly!Pastor Brad spends the first two segments teaching from Psalm 2. You will discover how the rebellious gods of the nations try to break the bond between the Most-High and His Son, Jesus. Of course, they are unsuccessful.Then, Pastor Brad spends the final two segments teaching from Psalm 3. You will see in the natural realm what takes place when bonds break between a father, David, and his son, Absalom.It exposes the agenda of the dark realm--the dark realm desires to break the unity of the family. There is a beautiful power of God available to us when we unite together, as a family, against the forces of darkness in wicked places.Thanks for being a loyal listener to "Coffee And Spirts" with Pastor Brad; our audience is growing. We have followers in 41 countries and our best times are yet to come.www.BradRiley.net

We are told in God's Word that we will judge the angels. This is not a subject I heard much about growing up in the church.Not only are we told that we will judge angels, but the apostle Paul actually encouraged ladies, specifically those who were married, to cover their hair because of the angels!It is a very interesting subject and it demonstrates that the early church was keenly aware of the way rebellious spiritual beings were interacting with God's imagers.This episode moves quickly--so load up on some caffeine and stay focused.Thanks to those who have supported the show. Connect with your host: www.BradRiley.net

Pastor Brad continues a two-part message focusing on persecution and purpose.Suffering for Christ Jesus is a normal part of the Christian life. As Christ followers, we want to make sure that any of the suffering we go through is from true devotion to Jesus and not because we have treated people the wrong way. It ties in with the purpose God has given us, according to 2 Timothy, chapter one.We hope you enjoy the journey this week and that it encourages you in your faith walk.If you want to support the show, feel free to reach out to Pastor Brad via his website.All God's best to each of you!www.BradRiley.net

This episode is unique from our typical Spirit Realm journey.God's Word reminds us that followers of Jesus will face times of persecution. It is challenging, difficult, and unfair. However, it is a normal part of the Christian life.Pastor Brad goes boldly into this difficult topic. We don't want it to discourage you, but to encourage you as you face trials and tests in this life."In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted." (St. Paul)We pray all of God's strength and blessing over each of you.www.BradRiley.net

Thanks for joining Pastor Brad as we dive into the Spirit Realm.In this episode, we take a deep look into the inaugural Shavout, when Moses entered into the Glory of God's Presence and we connect it to the first Shavout (Pentecost) after Jesus' resurrection from the dead.Did you know God spread the nations at the Tower of Babel by confusing people's languages (Genesis 11)?Did you know God gave His people the languages of the nations on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2)?God used speaking in tongues to reach the nations (Gentiles) and He still does.Enjoy!www.BradRiley.net

In this episode, Pastor Brad discusses three of the devil's characteristics and the way darkness uses them against you.Let's use this time today to shine light into the way devil and the dark realm work against us. We can forfeit victories from a lack of understanding.Thanks for following!www.BradRiley.net

Jesus defeated the devil.Jesus destroyed the devil's work.And, those who follow Christ, live in the victory Jesus achieved over His defeated adversary.To help us live in the victory Jesus accomplished, it is important to learn more about the devil; his agenda and his ways.We hope this episode helps, equips, and empowers you!Connect with our host: www.BradRiley.net
