    #132 Revisiting the Role Christians Played in the BLM Toxicity and the Current Cultural Divide (w/ Virgil Walker)

    #132 Revisiting the Role Christians Played in the BLM Toxicity and the Current Cultural Divide (w/ Virgil Walker)

    It has been a while since the BLMN riots tore through urban communities. The Twitter (X) feuding has moved to topics such as the Israel/Palestine war and the internet is still crazy! We sit with Virgil Walker to slow down and revisit the loud rhetoric that was taking place when the evangelical church was distancing itself from biblical fidelity and inching her way toward the cultural in hopes of being well received. We discuss the needed headship, unity, and a return to the sufficiency of Scripture.

    #130 This Christian Book Has Some Red Flags You Should Really Know About

    #130 This Christian Book Has Some Red Flags You Should Really Know About

    Are you being your new 'true' self? Have you kissed your old 'false' self goodbye? Have you ever asked where these terms come from??

    We bring back our good friend and original professional party pooper, Marcia Montenegro to discuss a Christian book that has been around for some time called, Emotionally Healthy Spirituality by Peter Scazzero. This book shares attributes with many other Christian books and it's time we begin to look closer at what books are teaching and from where they get these teachings. Who better to look into the magnifying glass with than the former New Ager herself??

    #129 This Christian is Infiltrating the Darkness as an Educator

    #129 This Christian is Infiltrating the Darkness as an Educator

    Are you a Christian in isolation at your work? Are you a doctor? A teacher? a Pastor amidst people who seem to hate Jesus and all that He loves? How do you stand firm in your faith when you feel so outnumbered, overwhelmed and downcast? 
    We are joined by a supporter of the podcast and educator in the school system (referred to as 'Delos') who is connected to a high-profile school in the country. He embodies what it means to be "wise as serpents, yet innocent as doves" as he maneuvers in a world of debased thinking and degraded morality. On the front lines of the downfall of education in America, he sees that the solution won't be reciting the pledge of allegiance in schools...it's prayer.

Mark C 95 ,

Educators unite!

What a heartening discussion from someone on the front lines in education. Great guest! Love you guys!! I am a white homeschooling sister is rural Kentucky, and you guys have more in common with my worldview as my Christian brothers than most of my white colleagues!

Sooooo uncool ,

Amazing podcast!

These guys speak truth! They don’t shy away from the hard topics. They aren’t afraid to engage in debate or discussion with opposing viewpoints. They share wisdom and truth and love in a way that convicts the hearer to want to glorify God. I love this podcast so much!!!

KPButler ,

Full of wisdom!

I just love listening to these 2 brothers speak. They invite us into their Godly conversations. They speak the truth in love.
