  • Ads and Balance

    Not sure where else to send feedback, so I thought I would do it here. I’ll update my review if I see changes.

    You just ran an ad from Meta about Instagram team accounts. It landed right before the story about the $3 million lawsuit against Meta. To me, this is somewhere between ironic, tone deaf, and upsetting. I’m confident you would not run ads from porn hub about teen safe romance influencers or from American tobacco about teen smoking smoking products that are not as addictive. My point is... more

  • Obvious progressive Christianity on display!

    Some of the worst takes on any podcast I’ve ever heard. The most democratic partisan takes masquerading as “faithful Christianity” aimed at 50+ year olds who are out of touch with culture and society, as well as the current state of evangelicalism. Looking at specks in culture and society and the church while ignoring the log in their own eye. They pick and choose what to talk about which is usually something trivial and meaningless and FAIL to talk about the larger more important at issues. The... more

  • So thankful for you!

    I am so thankful I found you! After many years of reading World magazine and then it shifting worldviews, I did not know where to turn for news that I felt was reliable. I trust Christianity Today, which was part of my life growing up, and now is my mainstay for current news along with the New York Times. (They do have wordle.) I love the interviews and commentary on this podcast! I could hear from you daily and be very happy!😊

  • Marco Rubio

    I don’t agree with all of your viewpoints and insights but they usually make me think. The comments regarding Marco Rubio are just a stretch too far. Or, we were listening to different speeches. You would never guess by his speech that his parents fled persecution Cuba.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Therapists' Free Speech, Grads' Careers, and Hegseth’s Imprecatory Prayer
Q: What is an imprecatory Psalm, and how have they been used by God's people throughout history?
Imprecatory Psalms are prayers for judgment on enemies; historically they express a longing for justice, but requires careful interpretation to avoid misusing them in modern political or military contexts.
Therapists' Free Speech, Grads' Careers, and Hegseth’s Imprecatory Prayer
Q: Sho, does this data resonate with you? Is the job market really that bleak for young Americans?
Yes, there's a real struggle with discernment and expectations, and many young people feel pressure to figure out a path quickly, which can lead to decisions that aren't aligned with their calling.
IDF and Lebanon, Ukraine’s Fears, AI Data Centers, and a Korean Messiah
Q: Tell me a bit about how this topic became something of interest for you.
Cheng explains his decade-long exposure to North Korea, the Christian roots of Pyongyang, and the intriguing contrast between faith and the state.
IDF and Lebanon, Ukraine’s Fears, AI Data Centers, and a Korean Messiah
Q: Jonathan Cheng, welcome to The Bulletin.
A warm introduction and setup for the interview, followed by Cheng sharing his background as a journalist and his interest in North Korea's church history.
Joe Kent Resigns, Iranian Threats, and a Victory for Parents’ Rights
Q: Could you explain the Supreme Court case and what was being argued in California about parental notification on gender transition?
The case challenged a California law that required schools to conceal a student's gender transition from parents unless the child opted in for disclosure. The parents argued for transparency and the protection of their rights to be involved in their child's welfare and decisions. The court ultimately emphasized that while protecting a child from abuse is essential, there is a fundamental right for parents to raise their children in their faith, and state policies cannot presume parental abuse or override those rights.
