    Ivy Insights

    The CrossPolitic Studios podcast is a powerful and refreshing Christian commentary podcast that boldly tackles cultural and political issues from a biblical perspective. This podcast is not afraid to pull its punches and consistently emphasizes the lordship of Jesus Christ in all aspects of life.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is its unwavering commitment to the truth of Scripture. The hosts fearlessly discuss current events, philosophy, and theology, all while keeping their focus on Christ as King. They provide informative and thought-provoking discussions that challenge listeners to think critically about their beliefs and engage with culture in a way that reflects their Christian worldview. Additionally, the variety of topics covered ensures that there is something for everyone.

    Another great aspect of this podcast is the engaging and entertaining nature of the discussions. The hosts have a great chemistry together and their conversations are filled with laughter, making it enjoyable to listen to. Despite discussing serious topics, they manage to keep the mood light-hearted without compromising the depth or importance of their message.

    While there are many positives about this podcast, one potential drawback is the inclusion of certain guests or viewpoints that some listeners may not agree with. This can be divisive for those who strongly hold certain beliefs but may find themselves challenged by differing perspectives. However, this also provides an opportunity for growth and learning as listeners are encouraged to engage with ideas even when they disagree.

    In conclusion, The CrossPolitic Studios podcast is a game-changer in the Christian commentary genre. It offers practical insights from a biblical worldview, encourages critical thinking about current events, and glorifies God in a world that often rejects Him. While it may not always align perfectly with every listener's personal beliefs, it serves as an important resource for those seeking to navigate culture through a Christ-centered lens. Overall, this podcast is definitely worth listening to for anyone looking for engaging discussions on politics, culture, theology, and more from unapologetically Christian perspectives.

    C.S. Lewis once wrote that it may seem he was “trying to answer questions you never asked." Some may think that about my recent discourses on God's covenant secret in relation to law. But Lewis also said those answers often "do not make sense until a man has reached those places.” Today, I hope those discourses will make sense. That "secret" explains what kind of thinking about or engagement in law and politics is salutary and what is in vain.

    In this episode of the Riff Session, we engage in a light-hearted conversation that spans various topics, including our upcoming trip to Madagascar, cultural exchanges during mission trips, and humorous discussions about classic monsters like vampires and werewolves. We also touch on survival strategies in a zombie apocalypse and share our experiences with extreme weather and ice fishing. In this engaging conversation, we explore various themes ranging from seasonal activities and childhood memories to the humorous aspects of pain and the science of humor measurement. We share personal anecdotes about winter activities, school seasons, and encounters with fire ants, leading to a discussion on the Schmidt Pain Index and the nature of humor in everyday life. The conversation culminates in a humorous critique of advertising, particularly focusing on Palmolive commercials and the absurdity of using dishwashing liquid for hand care.

    Some parts of America might be even more pagan than Christians think, and New York City is a great example of this. Today, the guys on CrossPolitic talk about the recent political victory of Zohran Mamdani in New York City. Mamdani is a socialist Muslim who is the Democratic nominee for the mayor of New York City this year. He wants to start government-run grocery stores, make bus rides fast and free, and raise the minimum wage to $30. Yikes. How did our country get here? In 2001, everyone would have been opposed to this. But now in 2025? We have forgotten the fire and smoke of the Twin Towers, our politicians want socialism, and our nation is flooded with idolatry. As Christians, what do we do next? Also, if you want your kids to thrive in this crazy world as godly men and women, you need to give them a solid, biblical education. This isn’t easy, but you’re not alone. We’ve decided to have our next conference on education so that you can prepare your kids to raise godly families, topple culture giants, and laugh at the darkness.

    Welcome to another special episode in the weekly “Prison Pulpit” series on the China Compass podcast! I'm your China travel guide, Missionary Ben, recording my final episode in Oklahoma this year. Follow me on X (@chinaadventures) where I post daily reminders to pray for China (PrayforChina.us). To learn more about our ministry endeavors or get one of my missionary biographies, visit www.PrayGiveGo.us! Why the Prison Pulpit? Once again I first want to remind you why I started this weekly Prison Pulpit series: to encourage us all to pray for persecuted pastors and believers (like Pastor Wang Yi) as Hebrews 13:3 teaches us, by sharing from his own words, as well as the many prison stories and sermons from the late Richard Wurmbrand. Praying for Urban Pastors (via China Partnership: https://chinapartnership.org/) June 16 - “There’s been a crackdown on churches in Changsha,” says one pastor, “with some being disbanded or banned. Our church was affected too, under government control and surveillance. So, we gradually shifted to meeting in small groups. Our numbers have dropped by about two-fifths. The spiritual fervor isn’t as strong as before.” Pray for churches who have shifted to a small group model, for good fellowship and discipleship to occur even if they can’t meet together as a full congregation. June 17 - A pastor in Changsha says, “The biggest challenge is evangelism. If you hand out tracts openly, you’ll be noticed. Another challenge is the lack of trust between people. If you try to share the gospel with strangers, they’re immediately on guard. I think about how I’d react if a stranger enthusiastically introduced something to me—I’d be suspicious too. So, evangelism now has to focus on people we already know, within relationships of trust.” Pray for sustainable evangelism in Changsha, for Christians to build long-term relationships with unbelievers where they can model the life of Christ. June 18 - A pastor in Changsha says, “Many university students became Christians [in the past], and now, at around 40 years old, they’re the backbone of the church. Many families homeschool or do co-op learning instead of public school. But as kids get older, parents worry about their future—especially since it’s hard for homeschooled kids to get into public universities, and large families face financial pressure.” Pray for families feeling financial pressure and anxiety about education in the future. June 19 - “There’s always anxiety about the police knocking on the door,” says a pastor in Changsha. “Even though we know what to do, it’s still scary when it happens. For example, during Good Friday this year, we were meeting online with a group in [in another city], and suddenly, the screen went blank—they messaged us that the police were knocking. We stopped everything to pray for them. It’s a real fear.” Pray for believers to know the peace, strength, and comfort of Christ in the midst of increasing persecution and harassment. June 20 - “Sometimes we get harassing calls from the authorities,” says a pastor in Changsha, “and it’s always a bit nerve-wracking. The more you interact with them, the braver you get, but it’s still a struggle.” Pray for the strength of the Holy Spirit for churches in Changsha, and for wisdom when dealing with the authorities.

    We cannot faithfully look at a tree and hold tight to our idols of order and tidiness. A tree takes an axe to those idols, as it calmly grows with crooked branches. Don’t get me wrong, it doesn’t romanticize chaos or disorder, for it does strive to hold its shape and structure. It wants order and aims for structure. But it doesn’t simply topple over when its root is introduced to its first boulder. It doesn’t wait to grow until the ground below it and air above it is cleared of all obstacles. A tree reminds us that a fruitful life means growth, and growth is messy. It twists and bends. It warps and grasps. It lives and grows, mess and all. Governed by it’s Maker, a tree grows straight with crooked branches.

    Hey, Neighbor! Hand things to babies when you want them to fling them to the floor. Next, congratulations to the protesters for braving the flood and keeping all the kings away from America. Later, Michael Tate of the Newsboys issued a public apologiy for grievous sin. Why do we keep getting surprised by celebrity culture producing these sorts of scandals? In a similar vein, what would cause a teenager to tag along with his irresponsible buddies on spring break to Panama City? Maybe it's the same lack-of-thought when a boy makes a pass at a girl who's engaged? Make sure you stay at least long enough to hear John sing about Captain Crunch...

    Unable to meet this week, the Pugcast decided to share an episode from the 2019 archives. Tune in for this blast from the past! Perhaps the most controversial character in all of Tolkien's writing is Tom Bombadil. People seem to either love him or hate him. But regardless how you feel about him, most people can't figure out why he's even in the Lord of the Rings. What's the point of the man in the blue jacket and the yellow boots? Certainly Peter Jackson thought he was expendable. He isn't even in the film version of the story. Was he inserted to make Tolkien's children happy? Was Tolkien providing a little filler to buy time because he was still working out the plot? Chris thinks that Tolkien was up to far more than people give him credit for when it comes to Bombadil. Chris actually thinks that you don't really understand Tolkien, or the Lord of the Rings, until you receive Bombadil into your heart. Listen in as Chris, Tom, and Glenn discuss the meaning of the mysterious Tom Bombadil!

    What if you ran an ad for your business that started with: “You’ll feel good after giving us your money." That's catchy. You'd probably get people's attention. But could you say that to your customers with a straight face, and stand behind it? Maybe you think it sounds presumptuous. Or haughty. Or too on-the-nose. Maybe you wouldn't run that sort of ad because it makes you look self-seeking or money-loving. Maybe you think it misses the point of what you're trying to do with your business.

    If you have any questions or thoughts that you’d like to share, reach out at RenchMedia@gmail.com Check out Annie’s new website! annierench.com Find Annie on Instagram @AnnieMRench Many families treat summer as something to endure, missing the opportunity to make it the most formative season of the year. The chaos of kids at home, disrupted routines, and constant mess can tempt parents to just “get through it,” but this mindset overlooks the unique chance summer offers for discipleship, connection, and growth. Scripture calls parents to intentionality, not survival mode, and the habits formed in these months shape children for years to come. By making one deliberate change—whether in family structure, daily routines, or parental priorities—families can transform summer from a season of stress into a time of joy, health, and togetherness. This episode addresses the real challenges of summer parenting, offers practical strategies for family routines, fitness, and nutrition, and encourages Christian families to embrace summer as a God-given opportunity for building lasting memories and spiritual foundations.

    Did you know that a Christian view of law hinges on a secret that God only makes known to those who fear him? Psalm 25:14 says, “The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.” Today, David explains how a Christian cosmology of law is embedded in that verse. And he explains how coming to know that secret after even decades in evangelical churches awakened him from the Nietzschean cosmology that had informed his view of politics and law for decades.
