  • Exceptional!

    Larry’s teaching is exceptional. I am so grateful for his knowledge, wisdom and life experience and the ways in which the Lord has gifted him to teach so clearly and powerfully. I have learned so much for every single episode and share this podcast with everyone I know - including teenagers who certainly need Larry’s teaching as much as adults. Highly, highly recommend

  • Underrated

    Larry is bold! He may not have the same spotlight as others like Tucker Carlson, but when you listen to him, you can tell this guy knows his stuff. He has a balanced view of what is going on in the world and what God’s Word says. He is a biblical apologist, and is trustworthy!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

John Lennox on C.S. Lewis, Oxford, and the Faith That Shaped His Life
Q: What was the turning point during the Dawkins debate, and how did you decide what to emphasize in your closing moments?
The turning point came when the discussion shifted to the resurrection, which Lennox used to communicate the historical significance of Jesus, reinforcing the need to present Christianity as a lived, historical claim rather than a purely philosophical argument.
America's Founders Were Far More Christian Than You Think | Eric Metaxas
Q: What role did key founders see for faith in the birth of the nation?
They stress that the founders viewed rights as coming from God, with leaders like Adams and Franklin recognizing providence and the Bible as the source of liberty, shaping the government's framework.
America's Founders Were Far More Christian Than You Think | Eric Metaxas
Q: Eric, how do you connect the pulpit's influence to contemporary events and the woke church?
The guests discuss the continuity of biblical influence, arguing that revival and a return to godly principles could reshape society if the pulpit once again centers on universal dignity and liberty rooted in Scripture.
Insurrection Barbie on Anonymity, Faith, Anti‑Semitism on the Right
Q: How did pro-Israel advocacy influence your stance within the right, and what challenges did you face?
She describes a turning point in February 2024 when she was encouraged to be vocal for Israel, which exposed her to aggressive, sometimes neo-Nazi-adjacent rhetoric. The experience led to a significant visible shift in her public stance and impressions, and she highlights the personal cost of advocacy amid a hostile online environment.
Insurrection Barbie on Anonymity, Faith, Anti‑Semitism on the Right
Q: What do you think is going on with people who self-identify as Christians and are embracing controversial figures on the right?
Barbie argues there are multiple layers to the phenomenon, including opportunistic power plays and a demolition/architects framework aimed at seizing control. She emphasizes that some Christians align with political power rather than embodying Christ's character, and she warns against coercive tactics and crusade-like thinking that echo historical violence.
