  • I continue to listen, every day, for years. Thank you! 🙏

    So appreciate this brief, daily overview, your Christian perspective and varied reporting! To God be the Glory! For years I’ve started the day by listening & praying, in combo w/ a couple other podcasts for diff news & view points. Largely, this pod is politically neutral -when possible- in a media world in which that is rare! Sadly, even in Christian-based sources.🙏

  • Jan 9 Episode

    I enjoy listening to this podcast about every morning, I’m a pastor and enjoy getting the news through the Christian perspective, however I was recently concerned about a comment made on the January 9th episode. The comment made that Christian’s were permitted to consume alcohol but not to be drunk. I believe the Bible teaches us very clearly that consuming alcohol in any way is wrong! Pro. 23:29-35, also Jesus did not drink alcoholic wine…the grapes were made into juice which they called wine. ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Trump Declares Ceasefire OVER, Incredible Bible Discovery, Matthew 6
Q: So tell me about this.
Josh Broome describes his transformation from a porn industry involvement to becoming a pastor and outlines the Made Whole course designed with his wife Hope to address pornography's impact and promote healing within marriages.
Chinese Pastor's Message to Christians, Lindsey Graham's Replacement, John 13
Q: What is the significance of Pastor Ezra Jin's release in the broader context of China's treatment of Christians?
It represents a diplomatic victory and a moment of relief for the pastor's family, but it does not signal a broad shift in policy since other church leaders remain imprisoned; it may be viewed as a gesture tied to diplomatic interactions with China rather than a wholesale change in religious policy.
Young Americans Divided on Israel, Dustin Tavella, Sneako, Psalm 71
Q: And as I mentioned there a moment ago, professional magician Dustin Tavella is sharing his faith with fans. So tell me about this.
Dustin describes how rediscovering magic as an adult paralleled a renewed faith journey, with his wife supporting the pursuit and faith guiding his career path; his story emphasizes redemption and the impact of faith on family life.
End Times Explained, Supergirl Bombs, Trump at NATO, Ephesians 5
Q: What is the rapture, and what are the main views?
The rapture is described as believers being taken up before a time of tribulation; main views discussed include pre-tribulation (rapture before the tribulation), mid-tribulation, post-tribulation, and other nuanced positions like pre-wrath and pan-trib. The speakers emphasize pre-tribulation as best supported by imminence and Scripture, while acknowledging other perspectives.
Ex-Tarot Card Reader Flees Occult, Texas Puts Bibles in Schools, the Truth on Angels and Demons
Q: What did the survey find about Americans' beliefs in spiritual beings beyond the natural world?
