Strive for Spiritual Riches

Jesus Second Message to the Modern Church – John Meacham

Hello everyone everywhere, this is Pastor Robert Thibodeau and I want to thank you for joining us on the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast today. We have a special guest for you today, a good friend of our ministry is back and I know you will be getting a lot of information that will bless you today. So get your note pad and pen ready, because these interviews go fast…it seems like we just get started and it’s time to end – anytime we talk with John Meacham.

John Meacham has served Christ’s Church as a Christian author, lay pastor, supply preacher, elder, workshop leader, small-group coordinator, Bible-study instructor, and Sunday-school teacher. As a part of his church work, John developed a small-group program titled AIM (An Involved Membership) and prepared a group study guide for the book “Is Your Church Heavenly? A Question from Christ for Every Christian” (published in 2008)

John was born on 1951 in Hickory, NC. He grew up the son of faithful Presbyterian parents. However, despite loving instruction and example from his parents and the Presbyterian Church and until his conversion at age 31, he thought the story of Jesus was a lie. Two days after his birthday in 1982, he learned the truth of Christ and has been proclaiming it ever since.

JohnMeacham spent eight days at the Sea of Galilee in 2005. During this time, he received a new revelation from Christ that involved messages that spoke of the state of the seven churches in today’s modern time. His previously released work, ‘Is Your Church Heavenly?’ details both his experience and the messages he received, and I recommend that book to you.

Today, we are going to continue a discussion we started last time about “The Heavenly Church” and it involves Jesus Messages to the churches today. We covered message one in episodes 411 and 412. So If you missed those episodes, go back and catch up!  We don’t have the time today to recover the information in those episodes – so I encourage you to go back and listen to those as well as what John has to share with us today!  Amen!

Help me welcome to the program, John Meacham. John, thank you for taking the time to join us today!

Ok, just for those that did not hear our prior interviews, tell us in your own words, other than that brief bio I just read, “Who is John Meacham?”

Now, last time, we discussed the “first message” to the modern day church that the Lord had given you.  Can you briefly summarize what we talked about last time concerning that “first message?”

Now, let’s jump right into the subject for today: “The Second Message” – tell us about this…

Satan’s influence in the world can be seen every night on the evening news. Both locally, nationally and globally. On the surface, it would appear he is winning. But true Christians understand the uptick in all of the evil we see now is because the devil knows his time is short. All the things we see happening can be found in the Bible, telling us the soon return of Jesus is about to happen.  How can we, as Christians counter these attacks by the devil in our government and society as a whole?

Jesus prepares us for Heaven, not for earth.

Being Faithful to Jesus means a lot more than just going to church on Sunday morning, doesn’t it?

To be truthful, I’m totally disgusted by most church services I attend anymore. I see ritualistic mannerisms rather than Holy Spirit led services. I see the focus on “clean messages” rather than exposing and calling out sin. I see the “go along to get along” clan rather than militants and rebels to society that call out the evil happening all around us. I’m almost at the point that I really do not want to go to a “formalized gathering called a church” anymore. It really turns my stomach sometimes. Sorry about the rant – but that’s how I feel…

John, what are the “true spiritual riches” talked about in the Bible?  Living with Jesus forever.

Well folks, as I said, this was going to be good. I believe you heard from the Lord today. If you are listening through iTunes, please leave a rating and a comment.

For John Meacham and myself, this is Pastor Robert Thibodeau, reminding you to BE BLESSED IN ALL THAT YOU DO!

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
