What is fasting really about?

Is it sacrifice… or obedience?

In this message, I share the personal story of how a 21-day fast led my wife and me to adopt our daughter—and how obedience to God brought both blessing and unexpected opposition.

Drawing from 1 Kings 18 and the story of Elijah, we explore what it means to fast for something you cannot yet see… and how God prepares you before He uses you.

In this video:

• Why we fast
• Obedience vs. comfort
• When breakthrough doesn't look like you expected
• The battle that often follows blessing
• How God changes hearts over time

Sometimes fasting isn't about getting something from God.

It's about allowing God to reshape you for something greater.

If you're seeking clarity, direction, or breakthrough, this message will challenge and encourage you.

Are patients being pressured into expensive chiropractic care plans?

In this episode, Dr. Nicholas J. Circolone, board-certified Chiropractic Orthopedist, discusses a growing concern in healthcare — what he calls the "Care Trap." From introductory $55 visits that turn into multi-thousand-dollar packages to misleading insurance explanations, he explains what patients need to watch for before committing to treatment.

Dr. Circolone outlines:

• Why some offices push prepaid care packages
• The difference between in-network and out-of-network insurance
• Why quality imaging matters
• What board certification in chiropractic orthopedics really means
• How conservative, evidence-based care should be delivered

If you're seeking neuromusculoskeletal care and want honest, individualized treatment — not a sales presentation — this episode is essential listening.

Dr. Circolone is one of only two board-certified Chiropractic Orthopedists in Tennessee and practices in Chattanooga. His approach focuses on accurate diagnosis, conservative management, and referral when appropriate.

"Evidence We Are Closer Than We Think: Living with Gospel Urgency in the End Times" - Are we truly living in the last days, or are we just waiting for them to arrive? In this powerful message, Dr. Nick explores the biblical signs that point to Christ's return and why this generation may be witnessing prophecy unfold before our eyes.

From Israel's rebirth as a nation in 1948 to the unprecedented global events we're witnessing today, this sermon examines the clear biblical markers that Jesus gave us—not to frighten us, but to prepare us and lift our heads in anticipation. We discuss the moral collapse in modern culture, the acceleration of technology and knowledge, global conflicts, and the urgent call for Christians to live with purpose and community.

This isn't a message of doom and gloom—it's a wake-up call to recognize where we are on God's prophetic timeline and to respond with gospel urgency. As believers, we hold the life preserver that can save others, and now is the time to move forward in discipleship, community, and love.

Whether you're a longtime believer or new to faith, this message will challenge you to examine where you stand and how you can actively participate in bringing others into God's kingdom before time runs out.
