In this stand-alone episode, host Mark Kelly introduces our new book from Kainos Press, entitled LO-AMMI: ‘Christians’ – but not God’s people. He explains how the book is rooted in his own experience growing up in church, how several Scripture passages helped him understand that the vast majority of church members are not God’s people, and what can — and must — be done to transform “church people” into disciples of Jesus for the future of our country.

Nik Ripken: The Insanity of God


Nik & Ruth Ripken

Nik & Ruth Ripken

In this episode, we focus on “The Insanity of God,” a popular book that’s now become an inspiring documentary movie about the courage of Christians who keep standing with Jesus in spite of severe persecution, even martyrdom.

Nik Ripken and his wife, Ruth, undertook a global pilgrimage to hear firsthand the stories of persecution and martyrdom our brothers and sisters in Christ are experiencing. Nik and Ruth interviewed more than 600 believers in 72 countries — and what they learned offers crucial insights for believers who want to be part of God’s revolution.

An estimated 70% of Christians worldwide are practicing their faith in environments of persecution. Nik describes this as “normal Christianity.” These believers are persecuted only because because they have chosen not to keep silent about salvation in Jesus Christ. By the same token, Christians are not persecuted in the West because we don’t try to give Jesus away.

Persecution is Satan’s reaction to those who choose to follow Jesus and be obedient to his command to make disciples. Jesus told us to not be surprised when the world hates us because it hated him first. If the world doesn’t hate us, it’s because we aren’t confronting people with costly Christianity.
