  • Mixed feelings

    I have mixed thoughts and emotions about the latest podcast. I appreciated some of the thoughts and beliefs shared but disagreed with so much shared as well! The topic of divorce is not black and white. What was not discussed or even mentioned is divorce due to an abusive partner and what research shows as being healthier for the child. In my experience and because I am a woman-many women want to remain married but when a husband is abusive emotionally, physically, spiritually it greatly impacts... more

  • Contrived outrage

    Every word of this podcast is spoken with venom and malice. This is not the voice for the abused, but the voice of the accuser.

  • Man who admits he’s a liar pretends to expose liars

    I was taken in by the first season. Season two began to betray his need to grind his axe and lead his witnesses when they didn’t seem to immediately be testifying as bad a report as he desired/expected.

    Then I heard some about his backstory:

    - he has falsely represented himself as a pastor/licentiate, while refusing to show any proof, and been refused by 4 reformed denominations: search Sons Of Charlatanry for article documenting this.

    - he confessed to several disqualifying behaviors on Face... more

  • The Host is like Nails on a Chalkboard

    Porter definitely pees sitting down. He’s clearly been hurt by the church and has an axe to grind. It’s painful to listen to.

Charismatic Nationalism & The MAGA Civil War
Q: What is the end game or long-term goal of these Christian nationalist movements beyond Trump?
Taylor explains that the groups envision a long-term reshaping of global politics through a post-millennial, victorious eschatology, aiming to expand influence beyond the U.S. by establishing Christian dominion across seven mountains of society and maintaining a global revival mindset that shortens or accelerates history toward their theological vision.
The CRISIS Facing Young Men Today (and How to Fix it)
Q: What should parents and educators know about education and boys' development today?
He argues against removing women from education, promotes training both genders for nurturing roles, and emphasizes vocational education as a path for men to achieve financial stability while fulfilling family needs.
The CRISIS Facing Young Men Today (and How to Fix it)
Q: How have changes in divorce and custody affected men, and what can be done to support them and their children?
Farrell discusses dad-deprivation in custody battles, the importance of shared parenting time, proximity to avoid time-forgotten events, and regular joint counseling to maintain a constructive environment for children and fathers.
Christianity Against Christian Nationalism
Q: What do you see over the next few years for the church politically and culturally?
The church is likely to thrive on the margins while facing challenges within institutions, influenced by current political atmospheres.
Christianity Against Christian Nationalism
Q: How should our churches respond to reports of abuse?
