Feeling beaten down by the world? Pastor Teddy , a.k.a Fred Kenney, Jr. delivers a powerful wake-up call about living from our position of victory in Christ rather than wallowing in bitterness . Through personal stories ranging from childhood dental visits to international ministry opportunities , he weaves together a message about discerning God's will and timing . When a planned ministry trip to the Philippines seemed perfect "on paper" , Pastor Teddy shares how God's lack of peace guided his decision to wait . "God didn't say no, He just said hold on a minute," he explains, revealing how submission to divine timing often contradicts our logical planning . This transparent account of spiritual discernment offers listeners practical insight into recognizing God's guidance in their own lives. The episode takes us through Pastor Teddy's experience of teaching the entire Gospel of Matthew in just eight days at Calvary Bible Institute Luzon . Comparing Scripture to a Mandelbrot set that reveals endless depth the more you explore it, he describes how students from potentially hostile countries prepared to return home equipped with teaching outlines they created together. His passion for empowering international ministers shines through every word. Most poignantly, Pastor Teddy addresses the concerning trend of Christians allowing world circumstances to embitter them . Referencing Paul's prison epistles written under dire circumstances , he reminds us to " rejoice in the Lord always " regardless of our situation . His childhood story about being slapped by a frustrated dentist becomes a humorous but powerful metaphor for the spiritual awakening many believers need today . Ready for a spiritual perspective adjustment? Listen now and reclaim your victory position in Christ! Share your own experiences of choosing joy amid difficult circumstances , and consider supporting Plays on Word's mission to spread biblical truth through innovative teaching and performances .

Send us a text "Do you know any company owners who view their businesses as a vehicle for extending the kingdom of God ? Today we talk with Catherine Wilberton , of Patterson's Water & Plumbing , Plays On Word’s Original “ PlayMaker ” ! " Catherine Wilberton , owner of Patterson's Water and Plumbing , takes us behind the curtain of what it means to truly operate a business as a ministry . As the first monthly supporter of Plays on Word Theater , she shares wisdom gained from decades of entrepreneurship guided by prayer and biblical principles . " I think I'm just the manager of God's business ," Catherine explains, revealing how this perspective shapes every aspect of her company . Rather than seeing profits as merely personal gain, she views her business as a vehicle for Kingdom causes — supporting ministries , providing for her family, and allowing time for relationships and personal pursuits like beekeeping. Catherine delivers eye-opening insights about water filtration that most consumers never consider . Did you know the water absorbed through your skin during a hot shower could potentially be more harmful than unfiltered drinking water? She explains how chlorinated municipal water , while necessary for killing bacteria, can create carcinogenic byproducts when interacting with organic matter in pipes . This education-first approach exemplifies how Catherine prioritizes customer welfare over mere sales . The conversation reveals fascinating connections between business and ministry . When Catherine supports Plays on Word financially , those resources translate into performances that have led people to commit their lives to Christ . When Pastor Teddy performs "The PETE Play," even young children become captivated by biblical stories they might otherwise never encounter. This beautiful cycle demonstrates how Christian entrepreneurship creates ripple effects far beyond business transactions. What might happen if more business owners adopted Catherine's philosophy that " businesses should tithe "? Her example challenges listeners to reconsider their own approach to work, finances, and ministry support. Whether you're an entrepreneur , employee , or ministry leader , this conversation offers fresh perspectives on integrating faith with every aspect of life and business .
