    The Rise of Progressivism: A Christian Apologetics Response

    Join Lori Morrow for the Voices of WIA series finale: What exactly is progressivism, and why do Christians and progressives often seem to view the world so differently? In this special solo episode, host Lori examines progressivism through the lens of Christian apologetics. Drawing from philosophy, sociology, secular humanism, and biblical theology, Lori explores the worldview assumptions that shape progressive thought and explains why many cultural debates ultimately stem from competing answers to foundational questions about truth, morality, human nature, and authority. Along the way, she addresses questions such as: - Is progressivism primarily a political movement or a moral vision for society? - What role does secular humanism play in progressive ideology? - Why do Christians and progressives often accuse each other of being "backward"? - Are biblical Christians really on the wrong side of history? - How can believers thoughtfully engage progressive friends and family members? Whether you're trying to understand today's cultural landscape or strengthen your ability to defend the Christian faith with confidence and grace, this episode offers a framework for evaluating progressivism from a biblical worldview.

    Marriage as an Apologetic: What Marriage Teaches Us About God

    Can marriage provide evidence for Christianity? What if God's design for marriage reveals something profound about who he is? Join Lori as she sits down with Dr. Tammy Myers—author, marriage mentor, and pastoral counselor—to explore marriage as an apologetic for God's existence and nature. Together, they discuss how biblical marriage reflects God's relational character, why distorted views of marriage often lead to distorted views of God, and what marriage teaches us about love, humility, flourishing, and the Trinity. From difficult passages about marriage and gender to the beauty of God's design for relationships, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on a topic that is often misunderstood. Regardless of whether you're married, single, or simply seeking to better understand God's heart, this episode will help you see how marriage points beyond itself to the God who created it.

    The Enneagram: A Helpful Tool or a Harmful Counterfeit?

    Your small group is reading an Enneagram book. Your church is hosting an Enneagram seminar. Your friends all know their numbers. So should you? In this episode, Lori sits down with Alexa Cramer — homeschool mom, apologist, and someone who came to this topic through her own season of doubt — to take a careful, biblically grounded look at the Enneagram. They trace its origins from early twentieth-century occultism to the church small group curriculum it has become today, and ask the question most people never think to ask: where did this actually come from, and does that matter? From the psychological tactics that make the Enneagram feel so eerily accurate, to the ways its core assumptions quietly contradict the gospel, this is a conversation that will help you think more clearly about a tool that has found its way into nearly every corner of the Church.

    Raising Kids in a Digital World: A Biblical Guide for Christian Parents

    Nobody hands their kid a screen thinking it will become a problem. But what if the problem is already bigger than you realize? In this episode, Lori sits down with Kelly Newcom, founder of Brave Parenting, who has spent years helping Christian families think carefully and biblically about technology. Out of her own family's experience — including a terrifying wake-up call with her teenage daughter — Kelly has developed a deeply grounded, gospel-centered approach to raising kids in a world saturated with screens. This conversation will challenge the way you think about technology in your home, give you language for conversations you may not have known how to start, give you practical tips and tools to use, and empowers you that it's never too late to make a change.

    God Is Still Good: Trusting Jesus Through Loss, Suffering & Uncertainty

    What do you do when life looks nothing like you expected and God feels silent? Is he still good? Is he still for you? In this episode, Lori sits down with Jennifer Shaw, former professor and biblical studies scholar, whose testimony includes a near-death experience, losing her father to Lou Gehrig's disease, and navigating the complexities of adoption and special needs parenting. Out of those years of what she calls her "refining fire," Jennifer has developed a deeply grounded, scripturally rooted perspective on suffering, hope, and what God has actually promised us. They discuss why so many Christians are disillusioned by suffering, how to discern God's voice when life goes upside down, and why the default assumption that God owes us a perfect life is setting us up for a crisis of faith. Honest, warm, and full of hard-won wisdom, this is a conversation worth sitting in.

    Forever for Our Good: Jesus in Deuteronomy

    Does the Old Testament feel more confusing than comforting? In this episode, Lori sits down with Dr. McCoy, professor of systematic theology and author of the Bible study "Forever for Our Good: A Study of the Book of Deuteronomy", to explore why this ancient book is anything but irrelevant. They discuss why God's law is better understood as covenant love than a list of rules, why obedience has become a dirty word in modern Christianity, and what it means that Jesus himself repeatedly quoted Deuteronomy when facing temptation in the wilderness.

    How Does God Use Suffering for Our Good? with Jean E. Jones

    What do you do when life hands you loss, disappointments, pain, and confusion? How do you go to God with it all? In this deeply personal episode, Lori sits down with Jean E. Jones, speaker and co-author of "How Does God Use Suffering for Our Good? Living with Hope While Making Sense of Life", written alongside her husband, Clay Jones.

From praying with gratitude in the hospital hallway to keeping a truth journal, Jean offers practical wisdom and biblical encouragement for anyone navigating their own season of pain and suffering.

    Suffering for Christ: What the Global Church Can Teach Us About Persecution & Hope

    Most American Christians have never had to suffer for their faith, but should we expect that to change? In this episode, Lori Morrow sits down with Dr. Karen Ellis, a pioneer in Christian endurance studies, to explore what anti-Christian hostility has looked like throughout history and across cultures. From social ostracism to martyrdom, Dr. Ellis unpacks the spectrum of persecution, why it's more normal in the Christian life than we think, and what the global church can teach us about enduring with faith and hope.
