    America at 250: What Does It Mean to Be a Christian Citizen?

    As America approaches its 250th anniversary, we explore what it means to be both a Christian and an American citizen. We discuss the blessings of living in a representative democracy, the importance of honoring governing authorities, and how faith shapes political engagement. From voting and civic responsibility to trusting God in uncertain times, this conversation encourages Christians to approach politics with gratitude, wisdom, love, and humility. Join us as we reflect on patriotism, freedom, and the responsibility of living out our faith while remembering that our ultimate citizenship is in heaven.  Support the show The ministry of Christian Life Resources promotes the sanctity of life and reaches hearts with the Gospel.

    Faithful Politics with Rick Gundrum

    We talk with former Wisconsin State Assembly member Rick Gundrum about what faithful civic engagement looks like when you have to represent a true melting pot of beliefs and still answer to your conscience.

    Faithfulness in Relationships

    June’s Fidelity Month serves as a timely reminder of the importance of faithfulness in our relationships with God, family, friends, and community. In this episode, we explore the biblical meaning of fidelity, why it matters in a culture that often rejects commitment, and how God’s perfect faithfulness serves as our model. Through Scripture, practical examples, and honest discussion about our own failures, we examine how faithfulness strengthens marriages, friendships, and society while ultimately pointing us back to the forgiveness and grace found in Christ.  Support the show The ministry of Christian Life Resources promotes the sanctity of life and reaches hearts with the Gospel.
