Ep 701 | Progressive, Pro-Life, & Indicted by the DOJ | Guest: Herb Geraghty
01/11/2022 Duration: 52minToday we're joined by Herb Geraghty, pro-life advocate and executive director of Rehumanize International, to discuss his recent indictment, along with the slew of indictments we've seen bombard nonviolent pro-life protesters in the past few months. Herb is one of these advocates being indicted for his pro-life advocacy, and he now faces 11 years in prison for allegedly obstructing the entrance to an abortion clinic and violating the FACE Act. We discuss how he found out about his indictment, what his response has been, and what's to come. We also talk about his pro-life views in light of his atheist and progressive worldview – how he came to be pro-life despite fellow progressives usually supporting abortion. We discuss the religious implications behind the pro-life worldview, and Herb challenges those who are pro-life to step up: If we really believe abortion is murder, we should act like it.

Ep 700 | Why Reformation Day Matters
31/10/2022 Duration: 54minHappy Reformation Day! Today we’re digging into history of the Protestant Reformation and Protestantism, initiated in 1517 when Martin Luther, in protest against the unbiblical actions and teachings of the Catholic Church, nailed the Ninety-Five Theses to the doors of All Saints' Church in Germany. We look at the controversial theological arguments he made that caused a schism in the church and shaped the foundation of Protestant theology as we know it today. We discuss the five solas, the statements that summarize the core beliefs that separate Catholicism from Protestantism, and explain why it matters that we know this today.

Ep 699 | Vindication for the Unvaccinated
27/10/2022 Duration: 58minToday we're covering multiple stories in the news, from Dylan Mulvaney to John Fetterman to Darrell Brooks, and we get some good news from New York (finally!). Dylan Mulvaney made headlines after revealing he was invited to the White House to interview the president. We talk again about the silliness behind Dylan's "girl" caricature and look at the ridiculousness of giving him a platform from the White House. Then, we look at John Fetterman's Senate candidate debate that left people realizing his condition post-stroke is much worse than they thought, yet the Democrats just won't admit it. We talk about some news from New York, where a judge ruled that employees who were fired due to vaccine mandates are to be rehired and given back pay. We discuss why this is the only kind of reparations that is justified. Then we look at Waukesha Christmas parade killer Darrell Brooks' trial, reviewing his extensive criminal history and all the ways the criminal justice system failed his victims.

Ep 698 | Aliens, Nephilim, Bigfoot & the Bible | Guest: Nate Henry & Luke Rodgers (Blurry Creatures)
26/10/2022 Duration: 01h07minToday we're joined by Nate Henry and Luke Rodgers of "Blurry Creatures," a podcast that delves into fringe creatures such as Bigfoot, the Nephilim, and others. As Halloween approaches, we're discussing how the church addresses not just the paranormal, but also common questionable beings like aliens/UFOs and the Loch Ness Monster. We look at whether there are answers to these things in the biblical text and how we might interpret them. We discuss aliens – if they exist, what are they? And do they have anything to do with angels and the spiritual realm? We talk about the Nephilim from the Bible and how they may have come to be and debate whether evildoers today are in part the result of human hybrids or just man's sinful nature. --- Timecodes: [02:40] New parody video coming out tonight!

Ep 697 | Revealing the Real Origins of Halloween | Guests: Jeremiah Roberts & Andrew Soncrant (Cultish)
25/10/2022 Duration: 50minToday we’re joined again by Jeremiah Roberts and Andrew Soncrant, hosts of the podcast "Cultish," this time to discuss the origins of Halloween and how Christians should view the holiday. We look at Samhain, a Gaelic festival marking the end of the harvest season, and its origins and true meaning, as well as how it has historically been linked to Halloween's origins. We also talk about Guy Fawkes Day and the history of trick or treat and ultimately ask the question: Should Christians celebrate Halloween? If so, where is the line between celebrating death and gore and celebrating a kid-friendly festive holiday? We talk about the importance of understanding that we're in a cultural free fall into neo-Paganism and how this might contribute to our understanding and celebration of Halloween. What does good discernment look like in this context? Check out the Cultish website and Instagram! --- Timecodes: [01:11] New stickers!

Ep 696 | Kids Are Not Public School Missionaries | Guest: Dr. Voddie Baucham
24/10/2022 Duration: 51minToday we're joined by Dr. Voddie Baucham, dean of theology at African Christian University in Zambia, to discuss the current state of the country and the topics of public schools, race, diversity, and Christian nationalism. First, with the midterm election coming up in two weeks, we look at how Christians can come to terms with where we've found ourselves as a nation in the midst of drag queen story hours and corporate CRT policies. We talk about the depravity of public school curriculum and the popular philosophy of sending kids to public school as "missionaries." We break down how CRT and race politics are merely about power and how the Left only wants diversity if it's ethnic diversity. Then, we dive into how "Christian nationalism" has become a trigger phrase for the Left and what it actually means. --- Timecodes: [00:42] New stickers!

Ep 695 | Why Children's Rights Trump Adults' Feelings | Guest: Katy Faust
20/10/2022 Duration: 59minToday we're joined by one of your favorite guests, Katy Faust, founder of Them Before Us, to discuss children's rights and the ongoing effort by the Left to mutate the family unit. We talk about multiple recent stories highlighting the depravity that's leaving children without two parents (a mother and a father) in the house. An elite private school normalizes the idea of "male pregnancy," and we talk about why people who follow this ideology feel such a startling need to get affirmation from kids. Then, we talk about the very important idea that if you're not discipling your kids, someone else will. We answer the question, "To whom do children belong?" (spoiler: parents!) and address how trans parenthood really affects children. We also talk gay parenthood, surrogacy, the innate desire for a mom and a dad that lives in all of us from birth, and how wrong it is to deprive children of what they deserve. --- Timecodes: [01:50] Interview with Katy begins [4:39] Private school pregnant man announcement & needi

Ep 694 | Hey, CDC: Stay Away from Our Kids
19/10/2022 Duration: 54minToday we discuss Democrats' and the CDC's attempt to make the COVID-19 vaccine mandatory for school kids and the unimaginable blowback they'll get from parents if this happens. Also, Joe Biden promised a crowd that his number-one priority would be to codify Roe v. Wade into law if his party has control of Congress after the midterms. It's so good to know that the chief executive officer of our country is more concerned with ending the lives of babies in the womb than, say, out-of-control inflation or gas prices. Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams is singing a similar tune, telling an MSNBC host that the only reason people are concerned with the economy is actually just because they have kids. We wrap up with a new story from the New York Times about the FDA pulling a drug from shelves after a decade on the market because it just doesn't work. Lastly, we have a brand-new sticker for you to check out (linked below)! --- Timecodes: [02:38] Biden vows to codify Roe [20:56] Stacey Abrams comments on

Ep 693 | The Disturbing Truth About Breast Cancer Awareness Month | Guest: Chris Wark (Chris Beat Cancer)
18/10/2022 Duration: 01h14minToday we're talking to author and influencer Chris Wark, also known as "Chris Beat Cancer," who uses his platform to bring attention to the importance of nutrition and the problems with the medical industry. We start off with his story of how he beat colon cancer after rejecting chemotherapy and moving to a raw whole food diet. Throughout the process, he saw the shortcomings of a medical system motivated mostly by profit. Unfortunately, there is little financial incentive for doctors to actually help their patients lead healthier lives; it's far more lucrative for them to just push the latest drug from pharmaceutical companies. We also discuss how "Breast Cancer Awareness Month" also falls into this category, with big corporations pumping out huge sums of cash to raise awareness for something we all already know about and doing very little to actually help those affected by breast cancer. We look at "pink washing" and where your cancer research donations actually end up. We wrap up with Chris' thoughts on wha

Ep 692 | Sorry, Ulta: Men Can’t Be Moms
17/10/2022 Duration: 51minToday we're focusing on TikToker Dylan Mulvaney's recent statement on wanting to one day become a mother. Dylan is a biological male whose TikTok audience exploded into the millions upon his announcement that he was transgender. Ever since, he's documented his life with "Days of Girlhood" videos in which he documents his life "as a girl." Last week, Dylan was featured in an interview on Ulta Beauty's YouTube channel in which he talks about his expectations and hopes as a transgender "girl," one of which is one day becoming a mother. We break down why this interview is worthy of mocking and explain all the reasons why despite what they tell us, biological men just simply cannot become mothers. Then, we take a look at the Georgia Senate candidate debate between Herschel Walker and Raphael Warnock. Walker was recently accused by a woman of paying for her abortion years ago, which has somewhat tainted his campaign. We look at how he did in the debate while still denying these accusations and again ask the questio

BONUS: Why Do We Want What We Want? | Guest: Luke Burgis
14/10/2022 Duration: 48minToday we're joined by Luke Burgis, author of "Wanting: The Power of Mimetic Desire in Everyday Life," to discuss where our desires come from and how we can better shape them. We discuss his article, "The Three City Problem of Modern Life," in which he expands on the idea, "What does Athens (reason) have to do with Jerusalem (faith)?" by adding a third city to the discussion: Silicon Valley (technology) and proposing that this Silicon Valley "city" has changed our relationships with reason and faith. Then, we talk about mimetic desire: what it is, why it's important, and how we can respond to our own desires based on where they come from. We define "disruptive empathy" and "trendy narcissism" and talk about how real love ties into all of this. WE'RE GIVING AWAY 5 SIGNED COPIES OF LUKE'S BOOK!

Ep 691 | Pit Bulls, Assisted Suicide & a Message to Christian Schools
13/10/2022 Duration: 01h15sToday we start off with encouragement and a call to action for parents and teachers in Christian schools to hold the line and not compromise on our values. It's worth it — and it's working. Then, we discuss tragic news that Canada is working to increase access to assisted suicide, even among minors. This kind of policy, rooted in a nightmarish redefinition of "care," is the inevitable end of a society that elevates the individual to a level of importance that should be reserved for God. Lastly, we address perhaps our most controversial topic yet — our utter disdain for pit bulls. We look at several stories that demonstrate the carnage that this breed disproportionately can cause to make the point that pit bulls just aren't safe to have as pets. --- Timecodes: [00:55] Intro [01:53] Critical Race Theory in schools [12:35] Euthanasia in Canada & the medical industry [36:24] The truth about pit bulls --- Today's Sponsors: Annie's Kit Clubs — all subscriptions are month-to-month, and you can cancel anytime!

Ep 690 | Should Christians Vote for Herschel Walker?
12/10/2022 Duration: 01h04minToday we're talking about a few prominent people who have made headlines recently. First, Tulsi Gabbard posted a video yesterday declaring that she's leaving the Democratic Party. We share why this is such an admirable move in today's political climate and how we should respond. Then, Herschel Walker made headlines recently after a woman came forward claiming he impregnated her and then paid for her abortion years ago. This accusation, which he vehemently denies, comes just as Walker runs for Senate in Georgia. We talk about his son Christian's response to these accusations and ask the question: Where is the line between voting for a politician for his policies and condemning his behavior? We also take a look at travel influencer Brian Kelly's surrogate baby and zoom out to look at the surrogacy industry as a whole. Then we're joined by Christiana Kiefer, senior counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom, to discuss Soule v. Connecticut Association of Schools and the fight for women's rights in sports. This case

Ep 689 | Kanye, White Lives Matter & John MacArthur’s Fiery Rebuke
11/10/2022 Duration: 56minWe're back after a week of sick days! Today we're discussing Kanye West's multiple controversial statements over the past week. Kanye initially made headlines last week for beginning his Paris Fashion Week show while wearing a shirt that read "White Lives Matter." Naturally, the left-wing media freaked out. We talk about the statement itself and why this is such a hot topic. Then, we discuss his two-night appearance on Tucker Carlson, where he made his pro-life views very clear (among other opinions). But then, in true Kanye fashion, he proceeded to post a bizarre anti-Semitic tweet that got him suspended from the platform. We talk about the hypocrisy of the Left in vehemently calling this out, yet refusing to condemn the rampant anti-Semitism in their own party, but we also look at why conservatives tend to latch onto celebrities who espouse certain conservative views with no regard to the whole. Then, in light of Columbus Day, we discuss why changing holiday names doesn't do anything to actually help indige

REPLAY: Waging Quiet Resistance Through Bold Obedience
10/10/2022 Duration: 38minIt's often easy to be overwhelmed by the chaos of the world, wondering "What can I do to make a difference?" While some might think the only way to affect the world is through a large platform with many followers, the truth is God can do amazing things through regular people who just live their lives according to the word. God has an important purpose for everyone, regardless of how many Twitter followers they have. And although the reward for living a biblical life is eternal, we must accept that the world will continue to persecute Christians in the short term, especially as progressives work their way into Western society. --- Buy Allie's book, You're Not Enough (& That's Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love: https://alliebethstuckey.com/book Relatable merchandise – use promo code 'ALLIE10' for a discount: https://shop.blazemedia.com/collections/allie-stuckey Learn more about your ad choices.

REPLAY: DEBATE: Pro-Life vs. Pro-Choice Christian | Guest: Brandan Robertson
06/10/2022 Duration: 54minToday we're happy to welcome Pastor Brandan Robertson to the show to discuss and debate the issue of abortion. Brandan represents the pro-choice side of things and gives his thoughts on Roe v. Wade being overturned as well as what he thinks laws regarding abortion should look like. We end up debating the theological and scientific question of when life begins, and although things get a little intense at times, it's so important that Christians with differing views are able to come together for civil discussion and debate. Note: There are times in the conversation when Brandan tried to interject but his audio did not come through due to Skype settings. This was not intentional on our part. We pause halfway through the interview to fix this. --- Resources for anyone facing an unplanned pregnancy, looking for free & confidential options: Find a clinic near you: MyChoiceNetwork.org Need to talk to someone right now?

Ep 688 | Is Jesus the Only Way to Heaven? | Guests: David Limbaugh & Christen Limbaugh Bloom
03/10/2022 Duration: 54minToday we're joined by David Limbaugh and Christen Limbaugh Bloom, co-authors of "The Resurrected Jesus: The Church in the New Testament." The father-daughter team discuss their individual faith journeys and what inspired them to team up to write this book. Then, we take a look at a few theological questions: Does it matter if we believe in the bodily resurrection of Jesus? Do works matter when it comes to salvation or to the Christian life? We talk about how "woke culture" has affected the church and the beliefs we as Christians need to hold fast to. We finish off with a short tribute to David's brother, Rush Limbaugh, looking at his legacy and faith.

Ep 687 | When God Tells You to Sell Meat, You Listen | Guests: Ben & Corley Spell (Good Ranchers)
29/09/2022 Duration: 38minToday we're joined by the founders of Good Ranchers, Ben and Corley Spell, who share their story of being called to start a meat company. From their beginnings in ministry and event planning, they have been faithful to God's guidance and direction while growing their company. We discuss the history of lax standards in meat processing and packaging and how companies can get away with putting a "packaged in America" sticker on meat even when it's imported from other countries. Good Ranchers' goal was to raise these standards, sourcing meat solely from American ranches. Then, we talk about the "war on meat" and the politics surrounding militant veganism. We're surrounded by narratives claiming that meat is bad for us, but how true is that? We also talk about what "organic" really means when it comes to chicken and how Good Ranchers is adapting its products to avoid seed oils. We finish off with some advice on taking bold steps forward and trusting the Lord. Grab this special promo for Relatable listeners, good
