Dr. D. James Kennedy VIDEO on SermonAudio

The sermon presents a urgent call to Christians to engage in the cultural battle for truth, morality, and the sanctity of life by recognizing how language has been weaponized to redefine fundamental concepts. It exposes the distortion of key terms—relativity, tolerance, and discrimination—arguing that modern usage erases moral distinctions, equates evil with virtue, and undermines the ability to discern between good and evil, thereby enabling societal decay. Drawing from 1 Kings 3, the central plea is for divine wisdom to judge rightly, emphasizing that true civilization depends on the moral courage to distinguish between good and evil. The message then shifts to the pro-life movement, highlighting both alarming trends—such as the widespread acceptance of abortion and the complicity of Obamacare in funding it—and hopeful developments, including a growing pro-life sentiment among the young and a surge in state-level pro-life legislation. Ultimately, the sermon urges believers to be vigilant, informed, and active in defending life and conscience, especially through prayer, political engagement, and the dissemination of biblical truth.

The secular radicalism of the French Revolution was nothing like the appeal to God-given rights in America's Declaration of Independence. Yet the spirit of the bloody French Revolution is on the rise today, notably among elites in our educational and media institutions. We'll take a closer look at how this couldn't be farther from the Christian pillars this nation was founded upon, in this episode of "Truths That Transform."

On this episode of Truths That Transform, you'll get up close and personal with one of our nation's Founding Fathers, Thomas Jefferson. Though Jefferson was not an orthodox Christian, he was also the furthest thing from the raving secularist he's often portrayed as. Neither Jefferson nor any other founder wanted to banish Christianity from the public square in America. In fact, quite the opposite. They believed that Christianity was essential to the freedom and flourishing of the new republic. Watch the full episode now to find out more.

Freedom of speech, religious liberty, discrimination, censorship—all things that seem to be coming to a head right now and so often Christians find themselves at the center of it all. On today's episode of "Truths That Transform," we'll look at what happened to one man who stood firm in his faith, even when it meant sacrificing his career, and how we can stand strong when faced with such opposition ourselves.

America is the land of liberty. And that's for a very good reason. As the Bible tells us, "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." America's freedom was built upon a Christian foundation, and our Founders deliberately protected that foundation in the First Amendment. But there are now those who wish to cast aside the First Amendment and criminalize Christianity. On today's program you'll discover how only Christianity can be the true basis for your freedom.

This Memorial Day weekend, we stop to remember America's heroes who have fought and died on our behalf, so that we could enjoy security and the blessings of freedom. And we take a look at the recent challenges faced by members of our armed forces, as an increasing number of leaders and policy-makers impose a "woke" ideology. According to many experts, our brave men and women in uniform are being let down, as America's defenses are being weakened by political correctness.

Our culture has been overtaken by "wokeness," a virulent form of Leftism that puts characteristics like race and gender and sexuality at the center of life, and then encourages people to discover how they're being victimized by the powerful in those areas. In what seems like record time, our vital institutions have fallen prey to this Marxist viewpoint that redefines justice, elevates deviant behavior, and penalizes Christianity. On this program, program, you'll discover how this sort of relativism is leading us into destruction—and how we can escape it.

As modern Israel marks its 75th birthday, we'll share portions of a recent visit to the Holy Land by Pastor Rob Pacienza. Christianity is based on real, historical events, from the creation of Adam and Eve to the parting of the Red Sea to the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. Skeptics who want to push Christianity to the margins have often denied these events. But on this program, we'll share how a growing number of discoveries have demonstrated the truth of the Biblical account of history. And you'll see how this evidence can bolster your faith.

The Bible says we are specially created by God in His image. But the evolutionary story says we are the accidental products of time, chance, and matter. When Darwin's theory of evolution took hold as an alternate explanation for God's truth, it changed our culture in profound ways. On this program, we take a look at an excerpt from our brand-new documentary film, Chaos: Darwin's Assault on the Image of God. We examine how evolution's mechanism of advancement, "the survival of the fittest," has led to catastrophe.

In the 20th century, a movement gained dominance which says that the government is supposed to be completely secular, with no reference to God whatsoever. But this contradicts the Bible and misreads the Constitution. So what SHOULD be the connection between God and government? We'll take an in-depth look at that question by examining the world-changing influence that just one Christian can have in the civil government. And Dr. Kennedy explains why Christians not only may, but must be involved in politics.

We recently relaunched our D. James Kennedy Center for Christian Statesmanship in Washington D.C. It's a vital ministry you'll be hearing more about in upcoming days. But why are we doing this? And what is a Christian statesman, anyway? On today's program, we'll explain. Dr. Kennedy recognized that our nation was perishing for a lack of Christian statesman. As we carry out his vision and mission, a renewed commitment to his Center for Christian Statesmanship has become a priority.

Many people take our American freedoms for granted. That's one reason why we're beginning to lose them. America was founded upon a governing document—the Constitution—that keeps the government in its place and protects our God-given rights. But today, many of our institutions are obsessed with cancelling our founders. And as we vilify them and turn away from their vision, liberty suffers. On today's program, you'll discover the genius and uniqueness of America's Constitution as we share a portion of the new documentary from our Providence Forum Foundation of American Liberty series, We the People.

This week, America marks the 291st birthday of George Washington, widely known as the father of our country. But where one generation grew up venerating Washington and his fellow founders, more recently they've been maligned and put under a cloud of suspicion. On today's program, we'll look at the real George Washington as well as a look at how so many great Christian leaders, beginning with the settling of America, brought us a system of government that has stood the test of time as the most remarkable bulwark of freedom on earth. We'll share a portion of the new documentary from our Providence Forum Foundation of American Liberty series, We the People.

Marriage has fallen upon difficult times in America. Divorces are more prevalent than ever, and now even marriage itself is under constant redefinition. Why is that important—and how does it affect all of us? On today's program, we'll look at the blessings of marriage—and how God offers those blessings to you. And we'll see that marriage is designed by God to be the fundamental building block of our society—so when marriage is undermined or attacked, so is society.

Marriage was created by God, and it was the first thing he instituted in His creation. For thousands of years, nobody seriously questioned the basis of marriage or its value. But in recent decades, a revolutionary ideology has come along which aims to tear apart such basic foundations. On today's program, we will investigate the importance of traditional, Biblical marriage—and the consequences of abandoning it.

On Roe v. Wade's 50th anniversary, we celebrate the overturning of that dreadful ruling by the Supreme Court. On this program, we dismantle some of the egregious lies that the abortion industry in America has depended upon—especially the lie that pro-life Christians are only concerned about the baby in the womb, and not beyond. The facts paint a far different picture of how Christians actually address the sanctity of human life.

Fifty years ago, the Supreme Court of the United States legalized abortion in the faulty Roe v. Wade ruling. Last summer it was finally overturned. Yet now, more than ever, Christians must speak out to protect life and give a voice to the voiceless until abortion is unthinkable. In this program, you'll meet dynamic pro-life leader Janet Porter, the architect of the first "heartbeat bills" that outlaw abortion when baby's heartbeat becomes detectable. And we'll examine the duty of Christians to get involved and speak out so that another abomination like this is never foisted upon our nation.

Every year, the President of the United States goes before Congress to do his Constitutional duty of informing them on "the State of the Union." But we're using the new year to evaluate the Spiritual State of the Nation. On this program, we'll give you the opportunity to make your own voice heard on the most crucial issues facing our nation. And while the Constitution guarantees us religious liberty in the First Amendment (because America's founders believed that a vibrant and free Christian church was essential to self-government and prosperity), we'll show you how advocates of secularism are working to turn all of that on its head.

For most of human history, truth was something objective and outside of you. It was the realm of commonsense—the "real world" where physical and moral laws reigned. But more recently, this has all changed with increasingly disastrous results. Now, truth is subjective—something you look deep inside yourself for—and as a result, our culture is coming apart at the seams. On today's program, we'll look at how the war on truth is affecting our children, often in tragic ways. When a cultural deluge sweeps away facts, reality, and the truth itself, what can be done? Because Jesus says, "I am the way, the truth, and the life," we can know the truth.

A new year is a time of new beginnings. On today's program, we'll look forward as 2023 is going to be a pivotal year for our nation, and for this ministry. What is the Spiritual State of the Nation? And what can we do about it? By God's grace and with your help, D. James Kennedy Ministries has exciting new plans to address the challenges that face us as a nation. We plan to shine the bright spotlight of Biblical truth on politics through our re-launched D. James Kennedy Center for Christian Statesmanship in Washington, DC. We'll be exposing the attacks of neo-Marxism and reaching a new generation with the vital good news about Jesus Christ in a series of new documentary specials. And we're launching a new podcast, The City of God, --and much, much more.

Many of our Christmas celebrations involve mythical figures, like Santa Claus and his elves. But the One whose birthday we celebrate at Christmas is not mythical at all. He's a real, historical person, whose impact exceeds anyone else who's ever lived. On this program, you'll discover the truth about this man, Jesus Christ, who divided time in half, and who is the reason for the Christmas season--and the divine savior of the world.

What if that first Christmas had never occurred? What would that mean for life on Earth? The fact is that Jesus Christ has had greater impact than anyone who ever lived. In anticipation of Christmas, we share more of our brand-new documentary, What If Jesus Had Never Been Born?, investigating how Jesus and the movement he began have had an overwhelmingly positive effect on virtually every aspect of human life. What better way to celebrate the advent of Jesus than by seeing the impact of His life, extending through history and transforming the world even today.

The impact of Jesus Christ is like an earthquake, extending out from Jerusalem to transform the entire world. Dr. D. James Kennedy wrote about it in the bestselling book, What If Jesus Had Never Been Born?, We share a special documentary program based on that book, which we're sharing with you on this program. Modern revisionist historians tell a false story about the impact of Jesus on planet earth. But as you'll discover in this program, Jesus and his followers have positively impacted virtually every sphere of life, including some that may surprise you.

What would this world be like if Jesus had never lived? It would be a dark existence, indeed, if that great light had never shone. In this program, we share a preview of our brand-new documentary, What If Jesus Had Never Been Born? In the Christmas season, the world stops to celebrate the arrival of Jesus Christ into our world. But while many have lost track of the reason for the season, the fact remains that Jesus Christ and the movement He spawned has been the greatest force for good the world has ever known.

This week, we stopped as a nation to give thanks to the Lord. And we're entering the season in which we celebrate the arrival of Jesus Christ into our world. But in a culture that's walking away from God, fewer and fewer people know what we're celebrating or why it's important. On this program, you'll discover what makes Jesus Christ unique, and distinguishes Christianity from all other religions. You'll be encouraged as you see the vital work that's being done to reach the next generation with the Gospel of Jesus Christ in an unbelieving world. And you'll discover how he can change your own life—eternally.

This week America stops to celebrate Thanksgiving as our Pilgrim forefathers did. But what do you think of when you think of the Pilgrims? In modern education, Pilgrims and Puritans are portrayed as the villains of history. But on today's program, you'll discover how they brought with them the seeds of our entire American system of government, with guaranteed rights for all. No matter how controversial it is to say today, America truly was born as a Christian nation, and we owe those settlers our liberty. This program will preview of a new documentary from Providence Forum, "City on a Hill."

During this month of Thanksgiving, we are reminded that we have much to be thankful for, even in trying times. We live in a free nation where we have the opportunity to choose our own leaders, and where our God-given rights are acknowledged and protected by a Constitution. What you may not know is just how rare a thing that is in human history. Many are trying to erase our history but if we lose touch with our history, we lose touch with the very foundation of our freedom. That's why our Providence Forum outreach has produced the Foundation of American Liberty series of documentaries. On this program, we share a preview from the newest installment of this series, "A City on a Hill."

This week, your vote counts. America is at a crossroads and the future is at risk. The sanctity of life is under assault. Marxist destruction threatens our Constitutional republic. Deadly ideologies dominate in our schools. Crime. Open Borders. Lawlessness. Are you ready to make your voice heard? On this program, you'll find out what Jesus has to say about your vote. And we explore some of the key issues you need to be aware of as you cast your vote in this watershed national election.

As we head towards a national election of great importance next week, we're looking at some of the key issues that Bible-believing Christians need to keep an eye on. As Christians, we believe the hope of the world is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. But our freedom to proclaim that Gospel, and the full counsel of God, is under growing assault in America. On today's program you'll see some of the ways this key American value is being undermined. And we'll take you into the heart of that Gospel as we remember the Reformation that was sparked by Martin Luther 505 years ago this week—and you'll learn how it affects your own life.
