Every week, The Van Maren Show will try to get a handle on what is really going on in our culture today. It can be difficult to find news sources and storytellers that accurately reflect a Christian, socially conservative, pro-life, pro-family worldview. Join me on Wednesdays as we head to the front lines of the culture war. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Trump's anti-woke 'vibe shift' offers hope. But we have a long way to go

    Liberals and conservatives alike have noticed an obvious “vibe shift” in America over the past several months, specifically since Donald Trump was elected to take back the White House. This shift must be welcomed and celebrated, but there’s still a lot of work ahead of us to defeat woke ideology and reestablish a Christian culture. On this week’s episode of The Van Maren Show, Jonathon discusses some of the cultural effects of Trump’s second term in office, specifically an increasing interest in the Christian faith. While this sudden interest in Christianity is encouraging, Jonathon explains that it is mainly due to an increasing desire to find deeper spiritual meaning. Many are still not willing to submit to the fullness of the faith with its moral obligations. U.S. residents!

  2. JD Vance's Munich speech was a master class in chastising globalist leaders

    JD Vance's Munich speech was a master class in chastising globalist leaders

    U.S. Vice President JD Vance gave a speech for the ages in Munich earlier this month, directly chastising European leaders over their totalitarian censorship of conservatives and Christians. Unsurprisingly, many European politicians angrily denounced Vance and the Trump administration in response — indicating just how successful of a speech it was. On this week’s episode of The Van Maren Show, Jonathan analyzes Vance’s “bombshell speech” and its ultimate significance for the future of American and European relations, the pro-life movement, freedom of speech, and more.

    Fight to stop UK assisted suicide bill is far from over despite setbacks

    On this week’s episode of The Van Maren Show, Jonathon speaks with Alithea Williams, public policy manager of the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC), about the latest on the United Kingdom's assisted suicide bill. Williams emphasized that the bill still needs to pass a third reading after being scrutinized by a parliamentary committee and then pass the House of Lords. But if it passes the third reading, it’s unlikely the House of Lords would vote against it. Jonathon also asked Williams what pro-lifers, particularly those in the UK, can do to stop the bill from passing a third reading. Tune in to find out what she thinks. U.S. residents!

    Pro-lifer pardoned by Trump speaks out about imprisonment, what he'll do next

    Jonathan Darnel was one of the 21 pro-life activists unjustly prosecuted and imprisoned by the Biden administration for participating in a rescue at a late-term abortion facility. Last month, however, he and his fellow activists were pardoned by President Donald Trump, and now they are free once again. On this week's episode of The Van Maren Show, Darnel tells Jonathon his story of the rescue that got him arrested, the trial, his experience in prison, Trump's pardon, and what he plans to do next in the fight to end abortion in the U.S. U.S. residents!

    Trump's actions against gender ideology are only the beginning of a long fight

    The first two weeks of President Donald Trump’s second term have been a whirlwind of executive orders on a wide variety of issues, including some against gender ideology. What do these orders against gender ideology actually accomplish, and what do they leave aside? On this week’s episode, Brandon Showalter of the Christian Post unpacks these executive orders and what they really mean in the fight against the transgender agenda. Above all, Showalter cautions us to remember that transgender activists won’t just give up because they’re losing a few battles in the culture war. U.S. residents!

    What Trump's first week means for the pro-life movement

    Despite distancing himself from the pro-life movement on the campaign trail, President Donald Trump has nevertheless given pro-lifers reason for encouragement during his first week back in the White House. On this week's episode of The Van Maren Show, Jonathon contextualizes Trump's accomplishments thus far and explains what they mean for the pro-life movement and the emergence of a culture of life in America.

    Here's how to 'porn-proof' your church and community

    Secular political leaders seem more willing and able to tackle the issue of porn addiction than our priests and pastors. Why is that? And how should Christian communities tackle the issue? On this week's episode of The Van Maren Show, Jonathon speaks with Jacob Valk of Into the Light Ministries about how to "porn-proof" our homes, churches, and communities. Valk shares his unique insights on how we can actually keep our children, loved ones, and neighbors free from the scourge of porn addiction. U.S. residents!

    Culture of death is rising across the West. How should pro-lifers fight back?

    Assisted suicide could very well become legal in the United Kingdom despite strong opposition from ex-prime ministers, clergy, and healthcare leaders. This is just the latest example of how the culture of death is gaining strength across the West. On this week's episode of The Van Maren Show, Jonathon sits down with John Deighan of the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children to discuss the possibility of legal assisted suicide in the UK, as well as the most effective strategies for pro-lifers to fight back against the culture of death.
