  • A Good Reason To Not Be Christian

    These people have no shame and continue to promote Christian Supremacy. After years of arguing that the Church should fill the role health care provider and government should not, they now blame the government for their lies. They are very dishonest people bent on deceiving the world.

    Mike Cospar should not have a platform. The man is an American Republican who advocates for the death of foreigners. Not Israelis, but any Muslim and Arab. He schills for Trump’s policies while claiming to not li... more

  • If you’re a Christian of any kind, this show will help you understand the times we live in

    It’s a high-quality program that takes the necessary step beyond the headlines, and asks, how should Christians be thinking about the things we see happening in the world each day? Not to imply that the way they answer the question is the right way per se, but to ask a question in the first place is valuable for the Christian.

  • Grounding commentary

    This show has been a shining lighthouse in a landscape so devoid of engaging and encouraging news reporting. Their commentary grounds the global conversations in a humble, thoughtful, intelligent approach. I could not get through the endless and depressing news cycle of the 2020s without this show (and the magazine!). Thank you CT media!!! Keep up the great work.
