    God the Artist: What You Never Knew About David & Goliath

    "God can slay the giants in your life!" Is that REALLY the moral of the story when it comes to the infamous historical account of David and Goliath? Get ready as Frank peels back the curtain and reveals the hidden meaning behind the Bible's most famous showdown in 1 Samuel 17. Tune is as he digs into the history, archaeology, and related Bible verses from this remarkable victory while answering questions like: What is biblical typology, what are some examples, and why is it important?Does archaeology correlate with the biblical accounts of Goliath and the existence of giants?How does David's role as Israel's champion point to Jesus?If David points to Jesus, to whom is Goliath pointing?Why did David take Goliath's head to Jerusalem?What is the first prophecy in the Bible and how does it relate to David and Goliath?What are chiasms and how do they demonstrate the divine nature of the Bible?Which Bible verses help us understand the deeper meaning behind this historical account?How do you summarize the Bible in 3 short sentences?Why did God weave prophecy into history instead of spelling everything out plainly?How is the Bible the greatest apologetics tool of all time?What do the Bible's thousands of cross-references reveal about its remarkable design? If you've ever wondered how the Old Testament connects to the New Testament, this episode brings the pieces together in a fascinating way. Once you see what's happening beneath the surface of David and Goliath, you will never read it the same way again!

    What No One Ever Told You About the American Revolution with Eric Metaxas

    There’s never been a nation like the United States of America. But do you know the wild and true story of how it came into existence? On our 250th anniversary, the hunger for America’s story has never been greater, and who better to tell it than historian and radio host Eric Metaxas, author of seven New York Times bestsellers including the ground-breaking biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer? This week, Eric joins Frank to discuss his brand-new 600+ page book, 'Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World', which explores in-depth the divine providence and heroic stories behind the founding of the United States. Together, Eric and Frank answer questions like: Why is the book titled 'Revolution' and not 'The American Revolution'?What is American exceptionalism?What makes Eric's book unique compared to hundreds of other books written on the American Revolution?What was the first seed that led to the struggle for American independence?Who was Henry Knox and what makes his heroic story one of the greatest but little known stories of U.S. History?Why did the Founding Fathers (and the people who supported them) call America's struggle for independence "the Sacred Cause"?Why is Samuel Adams called "the Father of the Revolution"?Is it possible to have freedom and liberty without God?What are some of the real stories of God acting in the Revolution? You definitely don't want to miss this episode along with Eric's book which will be a staple on your family's bookshelf for generations to come. Unless we ourselves know the true story of the Revolution—what some have called America’s “founding myth”—we cannot play the role we are meant to play in the Revolution that still continues today.

    How Do 86 Civilizations Reveal That This is Our Last Stand? Blowtorch Truth with Seth Gruber

    Is the greatest danger to Western civilization the hostility of the world, or the forgetfulness of the Church? Many Christians don't realize that the same evils that haunted our Christian forefathers still exist today--abortion and sexual sin. Seth Gruber, founder of The White Rose Resistance, is a leading voice in the pro-life movement and joins Frank to expose the chilling realities of America’s obsession with its false idols, while urging the Church to rise and lead the charge on the front lines of our cultural war through his new project, 'The Last Stand'. Join Seth and Frank as they ignite the airwaves with their "blowtorch of truth" and answer questions like: Why does Seth say that this is a "Last Stand" moment for the West?When and why did the term "Christendom" turn into "Western Civilization"?What behavior lead to civilizational suicide 100% of the time in 86 countries that were studied over the course of 5000 years?What two things does a civilization need in order to thrive long-term?What four things happened in 1973 to make it a major turning point for America's moral decline?What famous church father gave infants and babies legal protection for the first time in history?What are some of the accomplishments that Christians have been able to do culturally and politically?What is the biblical significance of Seth's advice to "remember the signs"?How is abortion "the demonic parody of the Eucharist?"Is the West standing on the precipice of destruction? What are Christians supposed to do now? Our Christian forefathers did not surrender or negotiate with darkness, they exposed it, confronted it, and drove it back with truth. Now it is our time.

    Who Lives Inside Your Brain? The Disturbing Psychology of Conspiracy Theories and Parasocial Relationships with Anna Kitko

    Why are millions of people forming deep emotional attachments to celebrities, influencers, and online personalities they've never met? And why do some online figures inspire such fierce loyalty that followers will defend their claims, adopt their worldview, and trust their conclusions—often without any scrutiny or independent investigation? Frank sits down with spiritual abuse counselor and Ratio Christi leader, Anna Kitko, to investigate the hidden psychology behind parasocial relationships, conspiracy theories, and the digital voices competing for our trust. Together, they unpack how social media exploits our need for belonging and how seemingly harmless online habits can quietly shape the way we see reality. In this episode, you'll discover: Why is Anna uniquely qualified to talk about this topic?What happens in the brain when we form emotional attachments to celebrities and social media influencers?What are parasocial relationships and why do they feel so real?How does social media contribute to the spread of conspiracy theories and online echo chambers?Why are loneliness and isolation making people more susceptible to manipulation, false beliefs, and paranoia?What practical habits can help protect our minds from unchecked anxiety and paranoia?What's the connection between parasocial interactions and pornography?What is the "smoke detector principle" and how can it help us distinguish legitimate concerns from irrational fears? In a world where algorithms compete for your trust and attention, understanding the psychology behind influence has never been more important. Join Frank and Anna for a fascinating conversation and stay tuned for next week's episode to see and hear highlights from Frank's recent tour in Washington D.C. with Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Mike Johnson!
