When blood is spilled in your land and true justice is not served... judgment follows. Today we break down the Brian Kohlberger plea deal that shocked our community here in Moscow, Idaho. Four college students murdered, and the killer gets life in prison instead of biblical justice—the death penalty. This isn't just about one case—it's about a nation that has abandoned God's standard of justice, leaving victims to pay for their killers' "adult daycare" while devaluing human life at every level.

Welcome to another episode in the “Prison Pulpit” series on the Fight Laugh Feast network’s China Compass podcast! I'm your China travel guide, Missionary Ben, still trying to get settled here in Malaysia. Follow and/or message me on Twitter/X (@chinaadventures) where I post (among other things) daily reminders to pray for China.You can also email me @ bfwesten at gmail dot com. Lastly, to learn more about our ministry endeavors or get one of my missionary biographies, visit PrayGiveGo.us! Why did I begin this weekly Prison Pulpit series? To remind us all to pray for persecuted pastors and believers (such as Pastor Wang Yi) as Hebrews 13:3 teaches us to do (“as bound with them”), by sharing from his own published writings in China, as well as more prison stories and sermons from others like the late Richard Wurmbrand. Today we’re going to deviate a little bit from China and talk about the ongoing persecution of Christians in Iran. Believe it or not, I just got access to my show’s analytics, and I happened to notice that we have a handful of downloads from Iran of all places. If you’re out there, please know that we are praying for you! And I hope that many more will be praying for you after today’s episode! BTW, I’ve always been fascinated with Iran and I’m excited to know that the church is growing there! If there wasn’t an extremely high risk of getting arrested, I would love to visit personally. (I almost got a Peruvian passport for that very reason.) But the closest I have come is flying over the heart of the country (at least once) on a Europe to Asia flight, swimming in the Persian Gulf (across from Iran) with my son in 2009, and flying along the Iranian border with Iraq on a flight from Oman to London in May.

Is the Declaration of Independence still relevant today? Does it contain language that lays the groundwork for a Christian society? Does slavery disqualify the founders? Dr. Matthew Spalding joins host Casey Harper to unpack the Declaration, exploring how its true meaning has been lost in modern misinterpretations. They also tackle the age-old question: Was this country, and its founding documents, truly built on a Christian worldview that was meant to persist?

The Lord once told a story where a man, upon doing a good job with what he was given, heard it said to him, “You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much.” Whether we're the owner, manager, or a line employee, if we want to carry the organization, we must first kneel down to put the weight on our backs. We can only move up by moving down.

Timothy Brindle vs. PCA Golden Calf | Crosspolitic What happens when a pastor challenges the PCA's untouchable idol? Timothy Brindle found out the hard way. At the 2025 PCA General Assembly, Pastor Timothy Brindle was silenced mid-sentence while questioning the reelection of Mission North America coordinator Irwin Ince. His crime? Pointing out that Ince's support for racial "affinity groups" violates James's command to "show no partiality." While other pastors freely criticized Ince's financial management and missed church planting goals, Brindle was shut down for touching the PCA's golden calf: racial reconciliation ideology. The Crosspolitic Guys and special guest Doug Wilson break down what really happened, why it matters, and what this reveals about the current state of the Presbyterian Church in America.

Dr Jared Longshore, a pastor of Christ Church MoscowID, and Undergraduate Dean at New Saint Andrew's College, talks with Dr Josh Howard about the concept of religious liberty, how it differs from Christian liberty, and the contrasts of how baptists and presbyterians view religious liberty.

The Rebels are back! Or at least one of them is, and with a super special guest! Elder P is joined by his wonderful wife Heather to talk about the battle for Christian contentment.

Hey, Neighbor! The Comedian Next Door, John Branyan, is not at the table. (And neither is the PodNinja.) But have no fear, the McBabies are here! While Bridger takes his nap, the rest of us (Cami, Collin, Emmi, and Silas) chat about what makes us laugh and which of our family members are "THAT" child. Contact the Comedian's family by emailing nextdoor@johnbranyan.com

The Pugs are at the PCA General Assembly! And for their first interview from Chattanooga they welcome Aaron Renn back onto the show. After catching up with Aaron about his life following the Three Worlds of Evangelicalism phenomenon he's responsible for, the conversation shifts to evangelicalism and elites--or, why evangelicals can't seem to really develop any. By contrast, Roman Catholics have no trouble developing an elite class who go on to cultural prominence. So, why isn't that the case for evangelicals? Tune in and find out!

Ray Comfort has been faithfully equipping Christians in biblical evangelism for decades, and his message, Hell’s Best Kept Secret, had a huge impact on me as a teenager way back in 1999.

The Final 10 Things You Should Have Done 20 Years Ago | Crosspolitic In this episode, we continue our list of 20 things you should have done two decades ago, covering everything from local politics to raising kids, from avoiding business temptresses to creating Christian think tanks. Whether you're 19 (born in 2005 - yeah, that hits different) or 40-something looking at the next 20 years, this conversation will challenge how you think about time, investment, and building for the future. Remember: You are the man creation has been waiting for. You're loaded with capital - your hands, your mind, your time. Start turning a profit with what God has given you. Fight Laugh Feast 2025 Conference (October 16-18, Nashville) - Register HERE: https://flfnetwork.com This is the full PDF of the list: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10BKnxWGZlBbFVNkcQRxEU1mQap2ktQWl7rwzqeBDENI/edit?tab=t.0

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.

Marziyeh Amirizadeh’s story is one of courageous faith and a powerful testament to God’s providence. Growing up as a Muslim in Iran, Marzi knew the grave risks of becoming a Christian. She witnessed the Iranian regime’s brutal persecution of believers and would come to experience it herself. Charged with apostasy - leaving Islam - Marzi was imprisoned, tortured, and sentenced to death by hanging. She joins Casey Harper and Family Research Council’s Arielle Del Turco to share her remarkable journey, offer a window into life in Iran, and weigh in on the current conflict. Resources New Persia

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.

"Pride Month" was so scaled back this year - the rainbow showed up in pastel. It seems big corporations realize going woke can hurt the bottom line. But what’s really behind the silencing of this once-colorful cacophony of the leftist agenda? Executive Director of the National Center’s Free Enterprise Project, Stefan Padfield, and The Washington Stand’s Suzanne Bowdey join Casey Harper to unpack this year’s seemingly toned-down "Pride Month" and whether this is a trend we’ll continue to see.

Stewardship is an understanding that everything we have, we have been entrusted with in order to be productive. And what is productivity? It's definitely not squandering, nor is it preserving, or hoarding. Productivity is an output of effort that brings value to others. This is the work of a business owner. Taking everything you own and have, and making a profit on it by turning it into value for others. And we can do this when we have worked out the issue of authority.

Hey, Neighbor! Don't mind The Podcast Ninja, with one foot out the door. He would much rather be watching the Pacers Game 7 than sitting at the table.

The constant focus on your deficiencies is not a symptom of humility. One is tormented by his impairments when he refuses to swallow the reality of the situation. One sees his own problem, and instead of accepting the fact and improving it, a self-degrading, proud person simply laments it. The Self-Loather is an egotist because his attention is always revolving around himself. It is a good thing to clearly see your own faults and inadequacies. You know what needs to be improved or avoided.

Now I can’t divulge very much, for security reasons, but here are the basics: moved to China at the age of 19, in the early 2000s, taught myself to speak (and read) Chinese.

Today David talks about what he learned six months ago that is fundamental to the "secret" behind a Christian view of law. It helped him see why his worldview was more informed by Darwin and Nietzsche than Christ, and it further reformed his approach to legal and public policy advocacy.

The fight for life is far from over. Family Research Council’s Mary Szoch joins host Casey Harper to discuss what the life issue landscape looks like since the overturn of Roe v. Wade. While a lot of good has come from that decision, abortions have actually been on the rise over the last few years - driven largely by the widespread use of chemical abortion pills like mifepristone.

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.

Hebrews 13:3!

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.
