Life of Faith 2025/02

Život víry 2025/02 - audio version of the only Czech interdenominational Christian monthly magazine. Read by Ludmila Matušková and Daniel Zeman. Recorded in the studio of Radio 7. From the content of the issue: * theme: The Dark Side of the Force The Bible clearly speaks of the existence of a spiritual being named Satan or the Devil. And if he's talking about her, we're probably supposed to know something about her. A brief summary of what the Bible says about God's enemy was written by Bible translator M. Klesnil. Pastor L. In the article "We have authority over demons" Ondráček gives practical advice on how to care for people who need deliverance. And the writer J. Nizz recalls a turning point in her life when, as a professional fortune teller, she called out in anguish the name that evil spirits fear most. The theme is complemented by column T. Dittrich on discerning spirits. * interview with a Ukrainian pastor: "I'm ready to die every day" Roman Lebedev's story is extraordinary: He went from being a criminal and a drug addict who sacrificially, steadfastly serving hundreds of people, often to those of which he used to be one, and leads them to Jesus. From former drug addicts and homeless people, he has created a congregation that reaches out to the wider neighborhood. In an interview he recalls, how he met Jesus, how his now 80-member community was formed, and he's talking about that, too, what wonders they see around them in war-torn Ukraine, praying for his country and thinking about its future. + The Bear and the Table of Sins - Have self-confidence or humility?
