    Children or Adults First? The Ethical Crisis in Modern Families with Katy Faust

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when adult desires take priority over children? In this episode, I sit down with Katy Faust to unpack one of the most confronting ethical issues of our time: how modern decisions around IVF, divorce, surrogacy, and family structure are impacting children. We live in a culture that tells us to “do what’s best for you.” But what if that mindset is quietly harming the next generation? Together, we explore:  Why children thrive best with their married biological mother and father  The real impact of divorce on children (and why it’s often misunderstood)  The ethical concerns surrounding IVF, sperm/egg donation, and surrogacy  How the sexual revolution reshaped family and child outcomes  Why Christians must think differently about justice — starting with children This is not an easy conversation. But it’s a necessary one. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — Why This Conversation Matters   03:12 — Why “Putting Children First” Is Controversial  07:23 — The Core Principle: Adults vs Children  11:25 — How Christianity Transformed Childhood  14:26 — The Sexual, Legal & Technological Revolutions  24:21 — Why Biology Matters for Children  30:42 — IVF, Surrogacy & Ethical Concerns  35:59 — Divorce & Its Long-Term Impact on Kids  39:35 — “Kids Are Resilient” — Is That True?  45:41 — Fatherlessness & Cultural Breakdown EPISODE REFERENCES Them Before Us www.thembeforeus.com Book: Them Before Us: Why We Need a Global Children's Rights Movement Book: Raising Conservative Kids in a Woke City Book: Pro-Child PoliticsFollow @hertheology on Instagram & YouTube.  Head to hertheology.com to find out more.

    AI, Fear & The Future: A Christian Response with Akos Balogh

    Send us Fan Mail AI is moving fast. Real fast.  It's creating a little bit of a chaotic response, and the opinions vary greatly. From job disruption to AI companions, there seems to be a lot of concern around the future and AI (& tech in general).  All this frames a conversation from practical to ethics and identity. What does it mean to be human?  In this episode, I sit down with Akos Balogh to cut through the hype and think clearly about AI from a Christian perspective. We talk about what’s actually happening (not just what headlines say), the real ethical concerns, and how AI is already shaping the way we think, relate, and live. This isn’t a fear-driven conversation. It’s about wisdom, discernment, and how to navigate a world that’s changing rapidly, without losing sight of what’s true and, most importantly, biblical.  TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Why this conversation matters (AI + Christians)  03:00 – Meet Akos + background  06:00 – What AI actually is (clear explanation)  09:00 – Where AI is heading (agents + rapid growth)  12:00 – Real-world example: what AI can already do  15:30 – Job loss fears vs reality  20:00 – The deeper issue: what AI is doing to us  25:00 – Outsourcing thinking + loss of depth  30:00 – AI bias, hallucinations + trust issues  35:00 – How Christians should think about AI  42:00 – Fear, hype + “is AI demonic?”  52:00 – What this reveals about being human You can find Akos at https://www.akosbalogh.com/ Mentioned in the episode: Akos talk at Moore College ‘Embrace AI and Lose Your Soul?’  2084: Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Humanity — AI, ethics, future of humanity John Lennox — AI + theology  Stephen Driscoll - Made in our Image Cal Newport — attention, tech, focus.

    I Was Deep in the New Age, Then Jesus Saved Me (Part 1)

    Send us Fan Mail This week I’m joined by Luna from Alabaster Ministries to hear her story of leaving the New Age and coming to faith in Christ. Before becoming a Christian, Luna was deeply involved in witchcraft, Wicca, yoga philosophy, tarot, shamanism, spirit guides, and occult spiritual practices. In this conversation she shares what first drew her in, the spiritual experiences she had, and the moment Jesus met her in the darkness and called her to follow Him. We also talk about the appeal of the New Age, why it feels so convincing, and how the local church helped ground her in Scripture and truth after her conversion.

    Christian Motherhood: Calling, Capacity, and Contentment with Leah (Raising Disciples)

    Send us Fan Mail What does it biblically look like to be a mum—especially when you’re tired, overwhelmed, and pulled in ten directions? Leah (Raising Disciples) talks practical discipleship, routines that reduce chaos, decision-making around work vs home, and a biblical framework for discipline that aims at restoration (not payback). Key takeaways Discipleship at home has two streams: explicit (Bible teaching) and implicit (culture, modelling, prayer, everyday life).“Consistently average” discipleship is often more faithful than sporadic intensity.Reading the 'actual' Bible with kids matters long-term: habit, exposure, and letting God’s Word do the work.Routine can be freeing when the goal is minimising chaos (not performing womanhood online).Work vs staying home isn’t a righteousness scoreboard—start with faithfulness, motives, and realistic time/energy.Discipline is necessary and often painful, but it should move toward restoration, not disconnection.Train (90%) + discipline (cements) beats living in constant consequence-mode.Timestamps 00:00 Why this conversation (parenting pressure + new year intentions)  02:13 Meet Leah (4 kids; former children’s minister)  05:29 “Consistently average” discipleship (explicit vs implicit)  08:21 Reading the actual Bible with kids  15:16 Does organisation help discipleship?  20:39 Trad wives, pressure, and an “audience of one”  27:47 Working mum vs stay-at-home mum (biblical framework + realities)  49:14 Discipline: principles, pain, restoration, training  1:06:15 Practical changes for this year (simple, realistic) Scriptures referenced Proverbs 13:24Hebrews 12 (esp. v9–11)Links Leah on Instagram: Raising Disciples https://www.instagram.com/raising.disciples_/Jonathan Haidts substack - After Babel (lots of stats and info for parenting in todays in culture and the impacts) "These intuitions don’t even begin to resemble reality.
