  • Smut is Smut & Sin is Sin

    Axis is such a great resource for grandparents, like me, and I learn so much each week; however, last week’s Half-Time show insights were shocking, especially from Irene who expressed very toxic empathy towards the Puerto Rican people ignoring the smut visually and verbally. Men grinding on men, etc, and I wouldn’t even want to type out the vulgar lyrics. Any of my Puerto Rican friends, religious or not, were embarrassed and offended by Bad Bunny’s performance. They even went on to say that i... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

CT: Fear of God Hoodies, Freemasonry, and Social Media Gore
Q: Do you think clothing that says Fear of God will encourage people to actually Fear God?
The hosts frame the question as a value-based prompt for parents to discuss beliefs and personal identity with their teens, encouraging critical thinking about brand messaging and faith.
The Timeless Wisdom of the Rule of Life with Jen Pollock Michel
Q: What's a practical way to involve kids in shaping the rule?
Invite teenagers to contribute to the practices that matter to them and be willing to adjust; the rule should reflect the family's shared values and the individuals' strengths, not just parental authority.
The Timeless Wisdom of the Rule of Life with Jen Pollock Michel
Q: How can parents start without feeling like they're adding more to their plate?
Start with keeping regular company with God, name your givens, and design a flexible, collaboratively created set of practices that fit your family context, which actually frees you to say yes or no with clarity.
The Timeless Wisdom of the Rule of Life with Jen Pollock Michel
Q: What exactly is a rule of life and why is it timely now?
A rule of life is the practice of regular habits that sustain a faithful response to God's voice, designed to be intentional, communal, and adaptable to different family rhythms rather than a one-size-fits-all schedule.
"How to Talk to Your Teen About Video Games" with CJ Fant
Q: What is a constructive way to talk about violent or sexual content in games without shaming the teen?
Discuss the game within its context, acknowledge moral questions the content raises, and use openness rather than accusation to invite the teen to reflect on choices and values.
