Question #1 I have been watching your podcast and enjoy it, but I think you need to speed it up! In our family we do speed everything games, cards, etc. So, my question is can I come on your podcast and do a speed podcast with you? Maybe once a month we can do a bottom-line podcast? Signed – Mystery Woman PS – I have been going to your church for 3 years and love it! Question #2 So many times I speak to people who don’t KNOW Jesus but “know of” Jesus. They believe there is a God and heaven, but don’t understand true salvation. They usually say something like, “Oh yes, I know where I am going (heaven) because I am such a good person The Hope Hotline | S01-E36 | 05-19-23with a big heart.” Can you please dive into this and explain why just being a good person isn’t getting us to heaven? Question #3 I understand the Holy Spirit is our Comforter, Helper, Intermediary, etc. My question is are we supposed to talk to the Holy Spirit, are we supposed to thank Him, do we talk to Him like a person, or is He someone silent? How is our relationship with Him supposed to be? I've read and heard from other preachers; we should talk to Him and thank Him. I hope this makes sense. In that line of thought, I know we pray in the name of Jesus, but do we talk and pray to Jesus or just to God? I know they are 3 in 1 and is there a difference in who we pray to? I know the Lord's prayer says: "Our Father, who art in heaven" so it seems to me we pray to God only. Question #4 It seems since I've been praying and believing for healing, I am getting attacked more and worse instead of better. I will keep believing and praying and working on my belief that it will happen. My question is: Can someone else pray for you and you get healed? Matthew 8:5-13 says, Jesus heals the soldier's servant based on the soldier's belief. This is where I am wondering if you can be healed through someone else's faith and belief. Question #5 I am wondering how I can use common everyday situations (example: painting with other people) to talk about God to spread the good news of the Gospel. Question #6 In John 5:14, what was the sin Jesus was referring to when He talked to the man He had healed? PS. I love your new hair color! You always look fantastic! I can never watch live but always look forward to the replays!

Question #1 How does someone know what they're called to do in this life, especially when you are older? Do you have to hear from God, or do you know by what doors are open? Question #2 Do you believe people have “love languages”, if so, what’s your love language? Question #3 Wondering if the New Living Translation of the Bible is a good translation? Question #4 I’m looking for a new Bible (I love the NIV Study Bible from Foundation but it’s time for a change.) I found a NKJV presented in Chronological order. Any thoughts as to whether this would be helpful to study or should I just stick with the original? Question #5 So many time I speak to people who don’t KNOW Jesus but “know of” Jesus. They believe there is a God and heaven, but don’t understand true salvation. They usually say something like, “Oh yes, I know where I am going (heaven) because I am such a good person with a big heart.” Can you please dive into this and explain why just being a good person isn’t getting us to heaven? Question #6 What do I do when my spouse keeps referencing to when they were single? Sincerely, Frustrated and Confused

Question #1 You have Pastors that you and Tom follow and listen to. Have you heard of Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel in Chino Hills, CA? If so, what do you think of him? We refer friend to attend his church if they live in CA and also tell them to watch Tom and Foundation Church. Question #2 Does God love the devil? If God created him and is a fallen angel does God still love him? Question #3 What was your first job? Question #4 How can I talk to my grown children about being saved, they are so-called Catholic and every time I try to speak to them about being born again and having a relationship with Jesus, they tell me to stop preaching, they don’t want to hear anything. What is the best approach? Question #5 Do you think the Rapture is Pre-Tribulation or Post-Tribulation? My concern is for my daughter, that’s why I ask.

Question #1 Share your skincare routine, morning and night. What products do you use? Do you take vitamins or supplements? I just wanna look as good as you at 35! P.S. When are you going to sell your merch? Question #2 I have a question about the gift of Prophesy. How do you know you have it? Also, is there a right way to give a prophetic word? Question #3 Deodorant companies sell their product in varieties of 72-hour protection strength, so should I put it on only once every three days, or should I still apply it every day? Asking for a friend. Question #4 How do you feel about marijuana, sugars, pharmaceutical drugs? Cleansing our pineal gland helps connect with God. Don’t believe it’s true? Do that research you have been opposed to do. Truth is strange to the educated mind of cognitive dissonance. Let Him in.

Question #1 This is a 3-part question reference the gift of speaking in tongues:If you had the gift, can you lose it? And if so, How or why? In 1 Corinthians 12:29-30 I interpret it to mean that everyone doesn’t receive the gift of tongues but can have other gifts. Do you feel it is necessary for all to pray for the gift of tongues even though it might not be their gift or is it a gift given to a person by the Holy Spirit? Question #2 I recently found out my 25-year-old nephew is afraid of death and has been most of his life. I don’t have much contact with him (and never did) as he lives in NJ. Can you suggest a long-distance approach on how to plant a seed? Any passages, verses, movies, or a delicate approach? I don’t want him to be afraid and would love to see him come to know the Lord. He was raised Catholic but not a practicing one. Question #3 Do you have any regrets in life or do you see them life lessons?

Question #1 If Zechariah 14:12 is referencing zombies, who in your family would last the longest in a zombie apocalypse and what would be your weapon of choice? Question #2 Please explain Matthew 16:19 is binding something on earth from something that we want or that we do not want? Is loosing referring to something that we want or do not want? Question #3 I have prayed to be filled with the Holy Spirit but have not yet received my prayer language. What do I need to do?

Question #1 Continuation: So many Christians continue to drink alcohol and seem to justify it by scripture that talks about wine. They always say “drunkenness” is sin but drinking in moderation is okay. Can you please discuss this topic and explain why Christians shouldn’t partake in alcoholic beverages? Question #2 I was hoping you would share your thoughts on prayer structure. Matthew 6:9-13 give us instruction on how to pray. I listened to a teaching that went further and broke it down into 6 segments: Always pray to the Father – Glorify God – Prayers should be Kingdom minded (eyes for eternity) - Pray for your personal needs – Pray for forgiveness for you and for others – Pray for protection from spiritual warfare How important is prayer structure? Do you have a different/insight on how to pray? Question #3 Why did your parents name you Hope?

Question #1 When people get insurance money and don’t use it for repairs but say they want to keep it because they have other needs, while their house still has damages from storms, isn’t this like stealing without using the funds for the intent the claim was paid? Yet these people can preach and tell other people how to live their lives and they should go to a good church. Question #2 We want to get married, but we don’t want the government to be a part of it. Does it still count if we get married and then never turn in our licenses? Will we still be married in the eyes of God? Question #3 So many Christians continue to drink alcohol and seem to justify it by scripture that talks about wine. They always say “drunkenness” is sin but drinking in moderation is okay. Can you please discuss this topic and explain why Christians shouldn’t partake in alcoholic beverages?

Question #1 Is Easter a Christian or Pagan holiday? Question #2 Brinley question: Which country started the tradition of the Easter bunny? Question #3 The first Easter eggs were dyed what color? Question #4 What is the tradition behind the hot cross bun? Question #5 I know Peter denied Christ and was forgiven. I have walked away from Jesus too but have difficulty forgiving myself. How do I do that? Question #6 In Switzerland, what animal delivers Easter eggs to children? Question #7 Where did the world’s largest Easter egg hunt take place? Question #8 At Jesus’ arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane it says in Mark that someone ran out of the Garden naked. Who was that and why did that happen? Question #9 Let me ask you this question: While Jesus was on the cross there was a statement by a Roman soldier concerning Jesus Christ. Do you know what it was? Let’s sit and think for a minute.

Question #1 Do dream mean anything?Can you explain dreams/nightmares? And is there anything in the Bible that reference nightmares. Questions #2 Would you break the law to save a loved one? Question #3 People always say, “God won’t give us more than we can handle.” If God won’t give us more than we can handle why does scripture say to bear one another’s burdens in Galatians 6:2? what is handling it when you see Christians suffering through illness and abuse.

Question #1 How can we get saved by just saying “the sinners prayer” when scripture specifically tells us to confess Romans 10:9-10 to get saved? Also, why close our eyes, etc. when scripture says to confess before men (Matt. 10:32)? You did have people raise their hands openly and go up for prayer recently. That is scriptural from what I have studied. Thank you for clarifying this. Question #2 Eschatologically speaking, what, if any, is the distinguishable difference between the actual seed of Abraham and those of us who believe? Question #3 I have a couple of questions about people who claim to be Christians and go to church on a regular basis. With all the dating apps out there one person goes on and pays money on a regular basis and has even been scammed when they got their banking information and kept taking money out and sending overseas. They say they want someone and especially an Asian woman whom he has never met other than what is in the brochures that look like hookers. Even under the roof of Christians they will go on these websites and the supposedly Christian home says it’s okay. To me they can preach they are God fearing Christians while promoting sin?

Question #1 What does it mean to be still but also walk in faith? Be still and know that I am God and faith takes action? Question #2 Is it okay to watch shows that solve crimes like murder and sexual assault like Forensic Files, First 48, or Dateline? Question #3 I have tried and tried to understand this but am so confused. It has to do with circumcision. I am reading Paul’s books, and it is talked about a lot. It is used as physical and spiritual circumcision. Please go deep into explaining this to me.

Question #1 Is it okay to do yoga and join the Masons? Question #2 Aside from necessities, what one thing could you not go a day without? Question #3 Is it a sin to check “Yes, I have read and agree to the terms and conditions” when you haven’t actually read them? Question #4 Why do you not wear your wedding band and Tom too? Question #5 You talked about your watch last podcast...I get frustrated because I give away watches all the time but have never received one in return. Why is that?

Question #1 Are we supposed to claim our tips for taxes? Question #2 What to do when your teenage son doesn’t desire a relationship with God. Wants to do the opposite of what we’re telling him? He’s 16. He doesn’t seem to understand God’s love. We’ve tried everything. We stand in prayer together, but this is getting old fast. He’s dealt with so much that we say no Harry Potter, Pokémon, some video games and shows, to now saying no to some book choices. He knows what’s right from wrong but doesn’t care. We did not raise him this way. We’ve disciplined him, love him, in church every week minus a few days. We have 3 other kids who are also watching him act this way. Question #3 Where is the coolest place you have traveled to? Would you go back? Question #4 I have a question for you to actually ask your guest. My husband and I watch Foundation Church services every week. I have heard Tom say to “pray the spirit”. I believe that is how it’s stated. And I don’t understand what is meant by that. Could he please clarify. Question #5 Here’s one for Tom – why or why should we not believe in the Bob Jones Super Bowl prophecy of revival in America? I do believe revival is coming, but why include the wokity wokest of events being included as a dependency in God’s message? Seems to sour it for me. I also don’t know anything about Bob Jones to base anything on. My false prophet radar is up but I do want revival now.
