Sparky the Broken Mirror – Joe Schimmel

Published on: 30th May, 2024

Sparky the Broken Mirror

Joe Schimmel

Since 1987 Pastor Joe Schimmel has been equipping Christians with the truth of God’s word. His testimony of the transforming power of Jesus Christ in his own life can be seen in his powerful exposé, They Sold Their Souls for Rock n Roll. This presentation has been heard during live presentations at churches around the world in which he describes his own deliverance from the bondage and satanic influence of Rock Music at the age of 18.

In addition to the video production, “They Sold Their Souls for Rock & Roll,” Good Fight Ministries has produced other film and television exposés, including “Marvel & DC’s War on God,” and “Hollywood’s War on God,” among others.

Joe has been on our program a couple of times before and it is always a blessing to have him share this information with us. Today, we will be talking about something new!  A book written with sharing the Gospel in a simple way… so simple – even children can do it!  He has published a book titled, “Sparky the Broken Mirror.”

With that being said, help me welcome back to the program, Pastor Joe Schimmel!

Pastor Joe, thank you for taking the time to come back on and join us today!

For the sake of those who may not have heard our previous interviews, maybe new listeners, etc., can you share with us, other than that brief information I just shared, “Who is Joe Schimmel?”

You’ve done some pretty serious documentaries and videos in the past… But in “Sparky the Broken Mirror,” you took a more light hearted aspect…

Why is a book like Sparky so needed today?

How did you come up with the idea for Sparky the Broken Mirror?

As you were writing, “Sparky the Broken Mirror,” was it written to have society at large “looking in the mirror” (excuse the pun)?

In the opening, we mentioned the big thing right now is “gender dysphoria.”  A lot of Children's books are targeting our kids with false information like this. Sparky is doing just the opposite. Can you explain for how your book is battling the false information narrative? One of the characters in the book is the King. In this story, does the King represent Jesus? At the end of your book, you have something called the “Good News” pages.  Why did you add them to the end of the book?

Pastor Joe, as always, you’ve given us a lot of things to think about. But this book, “Sparky the Broken Mirror” is awesome. I appreciate you coming on the program and sharing with us. If someone wanted to obtain a copy, or two or three or six for their kids or grandkids, how can they do that? Is it on Amazon?

If someone wanted to get in touch with you or “Good Fight Ministries,” how can they do that?

I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below.

Folks, the day and time in which we live is filled with demonic things that are trying to steal our kids and grandkids. Times are not the same as when we grew up – they are far worse than even Orson Wells could have imagined. Amen!

Pastor Joe Shimmel has a unique calling in being able to expose the true demonic elements of things that are trying to capture the souls of our youth. After all, the youth are the “next generation” that will be leading other in the future!  And we can see how this has turned out so far every single night on the evening news. Amen!

I want to encourage you to drop down into the show notes and reach out – get in touch with Pastor Joe Schimmel and “Good Fight Ministries.” You need to consume the content he has already been sharing. “They Sold Their Souls for Rock & Roll,” was my first introduction to Pastor Joe’s work – many years ago. Amen!

In fact, I’ll have links to his prior works in the show notes also – just so you can see them. The message is very clear – we are in a battle for the souls of our youth.

Drop down into the show notes, order several of these books, “Sparky the Broken Mirror.” Pass them out to your kids and grandkids. Buy some for the youth in your Sunday School classes. Let’s start winning our kids back for Jesus. Amen!

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.
