This is the eleventh installment in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974.

Whenever evil becomes cool in a nation, then that nation becomes the enemy’s playground.

This is the tenth installment in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974. In this episode he addresses the bizarre gangster craze that swept the nation in the early 1930s.

Our God is the Holy One of Israel and He is not only worthy to be praised, but He calls us to be holy for He is holy. In this study on the holiness of God, Nathan examines one of God’s precious names, and explains the only way we can walk in biblical holiness. Rather than a legalistic restriction on the Christian life, truly understanding God’s holiness sets us free to live the most joyful, peace-laden, and free lives imaginable.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

This is the ninth installment in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974. Due to Monday’s technical glitch and lost recording, this episode supplies a quick review of what has now become “the missing episode in the series" and then builds on this drama of the 1929 stock market crash by investigating the 1932 election between Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt. Roosevelt’s resounding victory in 1932 still, to this day, causes Conservatives to wince with pain. And, honestly, it did effectively alter our country and proved the undeniable origin of Big Government here in the United States. But, hidden in the folds of this "political nightmare for conservatism," is a very unique and special man that is hard not to like.

God is eternal and everlasting; His ways are sure and His promises guaranteed. This is seen in God’s Name “El Olam,” which reminds us that our God is unmeasured, endless, and everlasting. In this study, Nathan explores this immeasurable Name of God and gives three reminders for how we must live in light of this tremendous reality.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

God is light and in Him is no darkness at all! This amazing truth is found throughout the Bible in images and descriptions, but finds it fulfillment when Jesus declared, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will never walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” In this study, Nathan illuminates the “light” of God throughout the Old Testament and reveals how it all points to Jesus as THE Light of the World.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

Eric and Nathan host a live, in-chapel celebration of the one thousandth episode of the Daily Thunder podcast, reminiscing, laughing, and cherishing the work God has done.

This is the eighth installment in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974. In this episode he explores the beginnings of the FBI and the rise of its powerful leader, J. Edgar Hoover. Hoover’s demand for perfection, excellence, accuracy, and moral purity within his Bureau were inspiring, but they also functioned as a cloak for seedier behaviors in the work of the FBI--a hypocritical practice the Church has been known to utilize in its history as well. ------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

In the wilderness, the Israelites were attacked by a fierce enemy, yet God used the weakness of the flesh to demonstrate His strength and victory. This profound picture is still true for us today. In this message, Nathan examines God’s Name “Jehovah Nissi” (Yahweh is My Banner) and explains how the ancient usage of a banner showcases the wondrous position and majesty of Jesus Christ.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

This is the seventh installment in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974. In this episode he does a deeper dive into The Uncomfortable by analyzing the rise, the motivations, and the machinations of the infamous Ku Klux Klan. With membership rising into the multi-millions in the late 1920s, the Klan is a mere shadow today of its former glory back in that day. But, even though today's membership roles are low (a mere 5,000), we should be aware that the wicked spirit that inspired and covertly operated that movement over this past century is still actively plotting today under different guises. ------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.
