    This refreshing and Biblically sound Christian podcast really helps in this time of American despair. And I’m sorry Phil is sick, but it is so much easier to listen without his constant snark. And I love snark. Just, well, read the room.

    Governor Cox's actual words...

    "For 33 hours, I was praying that if this had to happen here that it wouldn't be one of us (a resident of Utah) --

    that somebody drove from another state, somebody came from another country. Sadly, that prayer was not answered the way I hoped for."

    Phil Vischer's hyperbolic and divisive sowing of potential seeds of offense by misrepresenting and misquoting Cox's words was glaring..."Yeah the only questionable thing was when he revealed that he was hoping it was an... more

  • Anti-conservative

    Wish they could be more balanced, but instead they are just critical of MAGA. This feels like a MAGA-hating podcast. Th rhetoric is hard to listen to unless you join in on the problems with the right.

    I do appreciate the interviews they do with authors & thought leaders that edify the body of Christ.

  • Better than I expected

    I’m sorry to say that I approach Christian podcasts that deal with current events very trepidatiously. I’m neither left not right. An eagle cannot fly with only one wing.

    My first episode is dealing with the horrible murder of Charlie Kirk… and I like how they balanced it.

    No extreme left, no extreme right.

    This is what I HOPED a Phil Vischer podcast would sound like.

    edit: Ignore the people saying they were laughing about Dobson’s death. It was a very fair take, to the point of crediting him w... more

692: Vertical vs. Horizontal Morality & Rediscovering Confession with Jamin Goggin
Q: How do we know we're not doing the same thing?

692: Vertical vs. Horizontal Morality & Rediscovering Confession with Jamin Goggin
Q: What should happen if you have a horizontal moral system?
You should say, 'I'm not murdering someone even if an authority figure has told me to do that.'
688: The MAGA Contradiction & Educational Injustice with Terence Lester
Q: Do you think the education system should 'normalize' support like that which Mr. Eason provided?

Q: Can you explain why you link those three things together and maybe some of your own story that fleshes out why they belong together?
Trauma, historical trauma, and poverty interact deeply, affecting educational outcomes and creating barriers for students in disadvantaged environments.
