    The Same Idea Fueled the Holocaust and the Sexual Revolution | Seth Gruber

    Episode Summary:  The sexual revolution isn’t progress. It’s a regression into outright paganism. This is not an overstatement. Today, we trace a direct line from Malthus and Darwin to Galton, Havelock Ellis, and Margaret Sanger, exposing how eugenic ideas shaped the birth control movement and continue to influence law, medicine, education, and even the Church today. Seth Gruber joins us to unpack his documentary The 1916 Project, laying out the historical evidence and connecting the dots from American academic elites to the Holocaust in Nazi Germany and then back again as those same ideas fueled the sexual revolution in the United States! Hear us wrestle with a modern paradox of how current anti-racist rhetoric comfortably coexists with praise for Sanger and her evil movement that explicitly sought the “cultivation of the better racial elements in our society, and the gradual suppression, elimination and eventual extirpation of defective stocks.”  Few realize the impact that the normalization of birth control and contraception laws had in reshaping sexual ethics, eventually requiring abortion as a backstop, and why the Church’s silence helped clear the path.   We close with hope, through the story of the White Rose resistance during WWII and a call to form believers to stand up and resist cultural capture with truth, courage, and love.

He has been a voice and defender for preborn babies ever since. As a leading voice in the pro-life movement, Seth has spoken more than 300 times to over half a million people. He is the host of The Seth Gruber Show (FKA, UnAborted with Seth Gruber) and travels as a speaker to educate the public, discredit the opposition, and inspire the Church to end the great evil of our time. Seth founded The White Rose Resistance in 2022, a national voice for life, awakening the Church and continuing to rise in influence. In 2024, Seth launched “The 1916 Project” – an eye-opening book and vital documentary to further awaken The American Church to her pivotal role in today’s culture war. At thirty-three, Seth’s passionate work for the preborn, The Church, and America is just getting started. 📌 Recommended Links      👉 Home - The 1916 Project      👉 Our Newest Book:  Home - Occupy 'Till I Come      👉 The White Rose Resistance - Life Is Our Revolution      👉 Home - The Last Stand      👉 Killer Angel – Canon Press 💻 Follow Us:      📸Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/disciplenations      📽️YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DiscipleNationsAlliance/ 📩 Ask us anything: info@disciplenations.org  Episode Webpage

    Book Release "Occupy Till I Come" | Darrow Miller

    Episode Summary:  Christians make up more than half of the American population, but culture is unraveling. The future of the West will not be decided by elections, but by whether the Church rises or retreats. In this episode, we’re launching Occupy Till I Come with its author Darrow Miller and argue that the Great Commission includes discipling nations at the ground level of culture. The real crisis, Darrow contends, is the sacred/secular divide that has confined faith to Sundays and surrendered public life to rival worldviews. Let’s recover the biblical and historical vision that once gave the West life and order. From the image of God as the foundation of dignity,  justice, and human rights to the Reformation’s role in shaping our current cultures. Then we get practical: unpacking vocation as worship, hospitality as discipleship, Scripture applied to public life, and courage under pressure. This is the hour to build. To occupy. To stand with clarity and courage. History is calling. The Church must answer. Key Endorsements: “The ideas in this book built our country, and they can restore it as well.”  Dr. Josh Mulvihill “This book is Darrow Miller’s magnum opus. It captures the urgency of our current civilizational moment, calling for decisive choices that lead either to renewal or decline.”  Nancy Pearcey Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)? Since 1997, DNA’s mission has been to equip followers of Jesus around the globe with a biblical worldview, empowering them to build flourishing families, communities, and nations. 👉 https://disciplenations.org/ 🎙️Featured Speaker:  Darrow Miller brings over four decades of global experience teaching the church that ideas have consequences. A former student of the late Francis Schaeffer, Darrow began his worldview training at L’Abri Fellowship in Switzerland, where he first caught a vision for how belief shapes culture. His passion for understanding worldview deepened while serving the poor with Food for the Hungry, where he saw firsthand how lies enslave and truth sets people free. Darrow is the author of influential works such as Discipling the Nations, Nurturing the Nations, LifeWork, and others that confront the cultural falsehoods that keep people and societies in bondage, offering instead the liberating biblical truths that lead to flourishing. He is a co-founder of the Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA), a movement dedicated to educating and equipping the Body of Christ to fully engage in discipling nations. 📌 Recommended Links      👉 Find the Book:  Home - Occupy 'Till I Come      👉 Become a Kingdomizer: Get Involved - Disciple Nations Alliance      👉 Our Civilizational Moment: The Waning of the West and the War of the Worlds: Guinness, Os:  💻 Follow Us:      📸Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/disciplenations 📩 Ask us anything: info@disciplenations.org  Episode Webpage

    Is It Important That We Overturn Same-Sex Marriage? | Katy Faust

    Episode Summary:  Almost every cultural and political battle we face eventually lands on the shoulders of children. Modern culture talks endlessly about rights but often overlooks the rights of children. If children truly have rights, then marriage cannot mean whatever adults want it to mean. In this episode, Katy Faust argues that when marriage is redefined, parenthood is rewritten, and children are the ones who lose. She shows why defending God’s design for marriage and family isn’t merely a religious conviction, but a natural law argument with profound implications for society as a whole. We explore a child-centered framework for marriage, IVF, surrogacy, and sexual ethics grounded in general revelation, social science, and the biblical vision of human flourishing. The Obergefell case legalized same-sex marriage in the U.S. and had profound ripple effects on identity, parenthood, and a growing commodification of children.  As a culture, we are becoming more aware about how redefinitions of marriage have harmed children. Do you feel at a loss for how to meaningfully think about this and talk about it? Join the movement to grow in clarity, courage, and meaningfully protect the voiceless in the coming generation. – How well do you understand the implications of gay marriage and its impact on children?

Between soccer carpool and church duties, she’s a mom on a mission against the progressive overreach—a globe-trotting speaker, hand-shaking policy influencer, and regular contributor to a variety of conservative outlets. Katy testifies and publishes widely on controversial topics such as “men and women are different” and “children should not be bought and sold.” She helped design the teen edition of the Witherspoon Institute’s CanaVox, which studies sex, gender, marriage, and relationships from a natural law perspective. 📌 Recommended Links      👉 Greater Than: Join the Movement to Protect Kids | Greater Than Campaign      👉 Them Before Us: Home - Them Before Us      👉 Truth Rising: https://youtu.be/XXc5IhgSZkg?si=yV2EKvacvGJEKRRB      👉 Recommended Episode: What’s the Harm of IVF?

    When Truth Collapses: AI, Wikipedia, and Venezuela’s Warning | Vishal Mangalwadi

    Episode Summary:  Truth is the engine of flourishing cultures. Season three of Ideas Have Consequences launches with a timely conversation with Vishal Mangalwadi on why nations collapse when truth is abandoned, and how they can be rebuilt. We explore the present reality of Christ’s kingship, the evangelical retreat from cultural reform, and why political change fails without moral and intellectual renewal. From Venezuela to Minnesota to Iran, cultures that reject truth inevitably deteriorate and fall. This episode confronts the ideas that are shaping and misshaping our world. Vishal introduces Truthpedia, a bold response to Wikipedia’s bias and AI’s growing echo chamber: a new digital ecosystem combining a truth-anchored encyclopedia, free high school education, and university programs that train leaders to become nation builders. We discuss discipling nations beyond elections and protests, restoring language as a tool for reality, and forming civil servants who love truth. If you’re concerned about the future of education, AI, and cultural renewal, this episode with Vishal offers both clarity and a path forward. Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)?

    Christmas Special: Eggnog, Joy to the World, & A Dragon-Slaying Messiah

    Episode Summary:  Christmas isn’t just a cozy story; it’s the moment the King of Kings invaded history. Christmas marks the turning point of history where the King claims His throne. From Isaiah 9 to Revelation 19, we trace the arrival of the Lamb who was slain and the rise of the Lion of Judah who reigns. We explore how biblical hope is active, not passive, calling Christians to occupy till He comes. We’re called to live courageously and bless this world as far as the curse is found. This is a vision of Christmas that practically fuels cultural renewal, faithfulness, justice, beauty, and shalom in everyday places. Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)?

    Is Your Church Still Bowing to Woke Jesus? | Jon Benzinger

    Episode Summary:  During the “Great Awokening” in 2020 many churches cracked under the pressure. These cracks ran deeper than political talking points and cultural morays but stemmed from a divide at the level of worldview. Pastor Jon Benzinger from Redeemer Bible Church joins us to explain how social-justice ideology is still present and active. Even while the vigor of the woke movement has quieted, there remains a gospel-level conflict in the worldview of the people. We discuss how to spot the woke worldview’s lingering assumptions about sin, justice, and identity, and why changing vocabulary doesn’t always mean changing beliefs. Jon also shares practical guidance for Christians navigating cultural pressure, how churches can guard against ideological capture, and why clarity, courage, and genuine repentance, not simply rebranding, are the path forward. We close with a look at One Gospel, a new effort to rebuild unity around the core gospel’s first principles. If you want a clear roadmap for the church today, this episode is for you. Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)? Since 1997, DNA’s mission has been to equip followers of Jesus around the globe with a biblical worldview, empowering them to build flourishing families, communities, and nations. 👉 https://disciplenations.org/ 🎙️Featured Speaker:  Jon moved to Arizona in 2011 after growing up in California. Starting in junior high, he knew he wanted to help people with his life. God saved him at 18 after knowing the truth, but living like God didn’t exist. After that, his desire to help people ultimately led to pastoral ministry and training at Vanguard University, Trinity Law & Graduate School and The Master’s Seminary. After being a high jump coach, custodian, college professor, a young adults pastor and a high school Bible teacher, he accepted the call to lead Redeemer Bible Church in March 2015. He and his wife Katie have four sweet kids, Colin, Ava, Emma, and Jace and a Golden Retriever named Riley.

    Why America’s Christian Leaders Are Failing: Stockholm Syndrome Christianity | Dr. John West

    Episode Summary:  Why are so many Christian leaders thinking like the culture instead of shaping it? This week, we sit down with Dr. John West, Vice President of the Discovery Institute, to unpack his vitally important new book, Stockholm Syndrome Christianity, and the subtle ways secular worldviews have infiltrated the Church. We explore why a mind-first universe matters, how cultural approval dilutes biblical truth, and what a truly holistic, biblical response to homelessness and poverty requires. West also issues a needed challenge: Christians must develop deep discernment in an age drowning in information. He ends with a hopeful reminder that the future of the Church is far brighter than it seems. Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)?
