Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow

You have a plan for almost everything. Do you have one for loving your neighbor?

In Part 2 of the "Missed Opportunities" mini-series, host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) and his wingman Christy Mendelow pick up where they left off—and get practical. It is one thing to recognize a missed opportunity. It is another to figure out who you need to be so you stop missing them.

The conversation moves into the difference between w...

Have you ever missed an opportunity to do something good—not because you didn't care, but because you were somewhere else in your head?

On a layover in Frankfurt, Germany, host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) walked past a hungry homeless man with a full meal's worth of leftovers sitting on the table behind him. He admits he was too caught up in his own disappointment to see the opportunity right in front of him. And it sta...

250 years ago, men risked their fortunes, their families, and their lives to establish something the world had never seen—a nation built on biblical truth, dedicated to God-given liberty, and committed to the idea that our rights extend not from government, but from our Creator.

That nation is still here. The question is what we are doing with it.

In this special Independence Day edition of “Courageous Christianity with...

You know the feeling. You read something in Scripture, or feel called to do something uncomfortable, and then it starts.

Yes, but...

Yes, but the world won't like it. Yes, but it won't make a difference. Yes, but look at what everyone else is doing.

With this show, the "Real Faith for the Real World" series comes to a close—and host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) and his wingman Christy Mendelow get to the core of what it ...

It is not your last mistake that defines you. It is your next opportunity to be the man God wants you to be.

In this Father’s Day episode, host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow and his wingman Christy Mendelow speak directly to what this day is really about. Not the cards, not the grilling, not the commercial version of fatherhood. The real thing.

The United States has the highest rate of fatherless children of any nation on earth...

The only behavior you control is your own.

The world gives you plenty of reasons to be angry. Scripture gives you a different instruction—take the plank out of your own eye first.

That is Matthew 7. And it is not a suggestion.

This week on the show, host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow and guest Pastor Steve Dennis bring one of the most downloaded conversations of the year back to the airwaves. Anger, integrity, and what it actua...

82 years ago on June 6, 1944, 160,000 Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy to fight pure evil. They didn't negotiate with it. They didn't look the other way. They stood against it at the cost of everything.

The battle between good and evil has not ended. It has just moved to different ground.

That same fight is playing out today.

Michigan State Representative Karen Whitsett stepped away from a successful political career b...

God's Word has something to say about everything happening in the world around you. The border. Transgender issues. The war in Iran. The legalization of marijuana. Every issue, every headline, every opinion.

So why are so many Christians forming their perspectives without it?

This week, host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow, wingman Christy Mendelow, and guest Jeff Egli take on politics—but not the way you might expect. This is no...

On Memorial Day weekend, we remember those who sacrificed everything—not just the years they lived, but the futures they never had. To honor that means standing for the freedom and the values they died to protect and one of the most important things every Christian must stand for is something most don't fully understand.

In this episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow and h...

Can a Christian be antisemitic? It sounds like a simple question. The answer will require you to look in the mirror.

Antisemitism is one of the most misunderstood and deliberately distorted topics in the world today—and host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow and his wingman Christy Mendelow confront it head on in this episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow." Hatred of Jews is on the rise globally. Synagogues are ...

You have been told that faith has no place in politics. That the church and the state must be kept separate. That a Christian should stay in his lane. But what if that idea—the one you have accepted as fact—was never true to begin with?

In this week's episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow and his wingman Christy Mendelow tackle one of the most consequential lies sha...

Saying yes to God is easy when the path is clear. But what about when it isn't?

In this week's episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow and his wingman Christy Mendelow bring a front-row account of what happens when someone says yes to God without knowing where it will lead. Bunni Pounds had a vision to have the Bible read over the American people. She didn't know where the money ...

You see it every day. The news, the commentary, the reactions, the words people throw out without thinking.

In this week's episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow is joined by his wingman Christy Mendelow and guest Jeff Egli. They look at a real-world situation—the release of Dennis Coyle after being detained in Afghanistan—and what followed in the comments on social ...

When you live out your faith according to the Truth of God’s Word, you may find yourself in moments of conflict, because your beliefs will not always align with what others believe, accept, or promote.

When those moments arise, how do you respond? Do you stay anchored in the Truth, or do you find yourself reacting in the moment? Are you speaking in a way that reflects Christ, or getting drawn into something that doesn’t...

If you choose to stand firm in your faith, you will come into conflict. Not because you are looking for it, but because living according to the Truth will put you at odds with a world that rejects it.

So, what do you do when that happens? Do you step into it, or do you step back?

For decades, Christians were the clear majority in this country. Today, that number has dropped significantly and it raises an honest question—how d...

You can listen to a series like this and agree with it, but at some point, it comes down to what you’re actually going to do with it. Because it isn’t about information. It’s about how you live.

You can see what’s happening around you. Things aren’t steady, people are searching, and a lot of what’s being offered won’t hold up when it matters. So, what’s the answer? Is it really about ...

You’re making decisions every day.

Some small.
Some that carry real weight.

And what you rely on to make those decisions is shaping your life—whether you realize it or not.

In “What Is a Christian Warrior? – Part 3,” host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) and his wingman Christy Mendelow take this series to where it matters most—wisdom.

Because defining what a Christian warrior is, is one thin...

Last week, we asked the question: What is a Christian warrior?

We challenged the picture shaped by culture and began to look at what Scripture actually shows—a man under authority, living by a higher standard.

Now we take it further.

If that’s true…what does it actually require of you?

Is obedience something you’ve settled—or something you negotiate?
What does real commitment look like in your life...

What comes to mind when you hear the word warrior?

A man with a weapon?
A fighter driven by anger?
Someone who dominates others?

Or something entirely different?

What if a warrior is actually defined by discipline, humility, obedience, and strength under control?

What if the greatest warrior who ever lived did not conquer with weapons—but with the Truth?

In this episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow,...
