  • The Dartmouth Miracle: Proof God Still Heals Today Ep 16
    2026/07/28
    Can God still heal today? In this episode of the Bennett Broadcast, Matt Bennett sits down with Nathaniel Miller, a former self-described atheist and Dartmouth student, to hear his firsthand account of a physical healing that changed the course of his life. Nathaniel shares how he grew up in a nominally Christian home in New York City, lost his faith in college, and was 80% convinced God didn't exist—until he decided to put God's promises to the test. Born with one leg longer than the other, a condition that caused years of pain and no real medical fix, Nathaniel asked for prayer at a Christian Union gathering at Dartmouth. What happened next—including feeling the bones in his leg physically lengthen—became a turning point in his journey toward faith. Matt and Nathaniel unpack the biblical basis for miracles as signs pointing to the truth of the gospel (John 20, Acts 3, Acts 14, Hebrews 2), the importance of discernment around claims of the miraculous, and how Nathaniel's healing intersected with two other pivotal moments: reading the entire Bible cover to cover in just weeks, and witnessing a friend's family respond to grief with unshakable faith. This is a raw, honest conversation about doubt, evidence, and encountering the reality of God. 00:00 Introduction: A Modern-Day Miracle at Dartmouth 01:35 Biblical Foundation: Why God Still Performs Miracles 03:33 Nathaniel's Background: From Belief to Atheism 06:07 The Medical Condition: Living with Unequal Leg Length 10:10 Testing God: The Decision to Seek Prayer 11:12 The Healing Moment: Feeling Bones Grow 14:09 Confirmation: The Night Everything Changed 15:06 Three Reactions: God is Real, Loving, and Demanding 16:52 Sharing the Testimony: Reactions from Friends and Family 18:52 The Journey to Faith: Bible Reading and Transformation 24:39 Wrestling with Mystery: Why Some Healings Don't Happen 27:01 Living Proof: Gratitude for Experiencing the Miraculous Website: https://christianunion.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Christian.Union https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61576165106594 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/christian.union/ X: https://x.com/ChristianUnion https://x.com/BennettBroadcas LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/christian.union Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/bennettbroadcast

  • Closing the Gap: The Key to Revival in America Ep 15
    2026/07/21
    In this episode of the Bennett Broadcast, Matt Bennett explores what he calls "closing the gap": the difference between how Christians are seeking God and the wholehearted devotion Scripture calls us to. Drawing from Jeremiah 29 and the often-overlooked condition attached to its famous promise, Matt walks through the stories of Kings Asa, Jehoshaphat, and Amaziah in 2 Chronicles—men who sought the Lord powerfully at times, but not wholeheartedly, and suffered the consequences. He contrasts this with the spiritual vitality he's witnessed in the global South, where prayer, fasting, and repentance are producing dramatic breakthroughs and mass conversions. Matt makes the case that America's spiritual decline isn't primarily about the culture around us—it's about the depth (or shallowness) of Christians' pursuit of God. He shares practical next steps, including an invitation to join a nationwide 21-day fast beginning August 7th, and points listeners to resources for going deeper in prayer and biblical devotion. 00:00 Introduction: The Spiritual State of America 00:37 Closing the Gap: A Vision for Stronger Faith 02:10 Conditional Grace: Seeking God Wholeheartedly 04:07 Biblical Warning: King Asa's Divided Heart 05:35 Jehoshaphat's Victory and Compromise 06:43 King Amaziah: Doing Right But Not Wholeheartedly 07:28 Global Revival: What Other Nations Are Doing Right 08:43 America's Forgotten Revival History 09:39 The Real Problem: Christians Not Seeking God Enough 10:28 Power Through Prayer: Examples from India and Revival 11:21 Practical Steps: How to Close the Gap 12:50 The Call to Fasting and Radical Devotion 13:52 Repeated Fillings of the Holy Spirit 14:40 The Bennett Broadcast Mission and Vision 16:32 Join the Movement: August Fast and Community 17:08 Hope for America: Drawing Close to God 17:52 New York City Churches and the Need for Renewal 18:34 Seven Keys to Kingdom Advancement 19:29 True Revival: Multiple Outpourings in Geography 21:03 Become a Cornerstone Partner 21:51 Closing Prayer and Blessing Website: https://christianunion.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Christian.Union https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61576165106594 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/christian.union/ X: https://x.com/ChristianUnion https://x.com/BennettBroadcas LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/christian.union Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/bennettbroadcast

  • Why Fasting Unlocks Breakthrough: The Biblical Power of Humbling Yourself Ep 14
    2026/07/14
    Is fasting the missing piece in your walk with God? In this episode of the Bennett Broadcast, Matt Bennett unpacks the biblical practice of fasting—what it is, why it matters, and how it can radically deepen your relationship with the Lord. Drawing from Scripture, including Deuteronomy 8, James 4, Isaiah 57, and powerful examples from Jehoshaphat, Nehemiah, Esther, and the early church, Matt explains how fasting humbles us before God and opens the door to greater grace, breakthrough, and spiritual power. Matt also clears up common misconceptions—why fasting isn't legalism, how it differs from a "privation" like a Daniel fast or social media break, and practical guidance on how to fast in a way that's both biblically faithful and physically wise. Drawing from decades of personal experience and two revivals he's witnessed firsthand, Matt shares why he believes a return to fasting is essential for personal renewal, family breakthrough, and national revival. 00:00 Introduction: The Transformative Power of Fasting 01:43 What Is Fasting and Why We Do It 02:51 The Primary Tool for Humility 04:06 Conditional Grace: Drawing Near to God 05:08 God Dwells with the Humble 05:55 Biblical Examples: Revelation and Breakthrough 07:18 Jehoshaphat's Fast: National Deliverance 08:21 Old Testament Fasting Heroes 09:21 Personal Testimony: 40-Day Fasts and Campus Revival 10:05 Practical Fasting: Health Considerations and Regular Practice 11:03 Fasting and Revival Throughout History 11:39 Understanding Biblical Fasting vs. Privation 12:18 Addressing Misconceptions: Fasting Is Not Legalism 13:42 The Difference Between Fasting and Privation 16:06 Types of Fasts: Water, Liquid, and One Meal 17:10 The Decline of Western Fasting Practices 18:34 Resources and Books on Fasting 18:51 Testimonies of Breakthrough and Revival 19:46 Invitation: August National Fast with Christian Union 20:38 Closing Prayer and Encouragement 21:27 Outro: Join the Movement Website: https://christianunion.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Christian.Union Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/christian.union/ X: https://x.com/ChristianUnion LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/christian.union
