Unashamed with Phil Robertson

Christian reflects on inherited ideas about salvation and the questions that arose when his beliefs didn't match his life.

Miss Kay's famous banana pudding sends all the Robertsons running as Al's daughter, Anna, recreates the family recipe and sparks a late-night rush for a taste. The guys swap memories tied to Dolly Parton, from childhood family traditions to the kind of old-school American culture that still feels frozen in time. Al and Zach reflect on why certain songs, foods, and places can bring decades of memories rushing back, while Jase gets unexpectedly sentimental about what first drew him to Missy. The guys explore the fleeting nature of life and the hope Christians have in the face of loss. In this episode: Psalm 90:4–6, 12; Ecclesiastes 3:11; Daniel 3:16–18, 19–25; Matthew 9:18–26; John 10:10; John 11:35; 1 Thessalonians 4:13; James 1:2–4; James 4:13–17; James 5:1 “Unashamed” Episode 1408 is sponsored by: https://preborn.com/unashamed - Visit the PreBorn! website or dial #250 and use keyword BABY to donate today. https://trees.com/ - Get an additional 20% OFF with code UNASHAMED at checkout http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ - Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Jep Robertson's surprising new chapter has Al reflecting on how far his youngest brother has come, from a season marked by drugs and fear to using his story to encourage others. Zach gets a bizarre notice from the IRS, and Jase and Al revisit their sketchiest childhood job that put them face-to-face with black widows, ant beds, and more danger than most kids ever face. The guys dig into James and Proverbs to make the case that biblical wisdom is something you live, not just something you know, and that God's jealousy is rooted in covenant love, grace, and a desire for our full loyalty. In this episode: Matthew 28; Revelation 21:8; Hebrews 4:15-16; Hebrews 2:17; James 1; James 4:4-6; Proverbs 1:1-7, 20-33; Proverbs 2:9, 12, 16-18; Proverbs 3:5-6, 13-18, 34; Proverbs 4:5-9; Proverbs 5:1-5; Proverbs 6:16-19; Proverbs 7:4-27; Proverbs 8; Proverbs 9; Matthew 7; John 8; Revelation 22 “Unashamed” Episode 1407 is sponsored by: https://homechef.com/unashamed - Get 50% off and free shipping on your first box plus free dessert for life! https://duckstamp.com/unashamed - Get your digital duck stamp online and keep it right on your phone! https://myphdweightloss.com - Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Max and Laela, Zach's eldest children and the duo behind Dasher the Band, open up about the whirlwind of life on the road, from the unexpected phone call that landed them a tour with Larry Fleet to figuring out how to protect their marriages, stay accountable, and keep their faith at the center as new opportunities come their way. Zach, Jase, and Al reflect on building something bigger than yourself and why keeping family close may be one of the best defenses against losing yourself as success grows. Max and Laela bring the conversation full circle with a special in-studio performance.

Willie's questions about the old Robertson property send Al deep into family history and uncover details about the family's earliest years that even Willie never fully knew. Jase, Al, and Zach look back on the Robertson family's famously argumentative style and why their fights, however heated, don't turn into lasting grudges. Jase and Zach also find themselves analyzing their own family backgrounds through a new men's group, while the conversation turns to why Christians can get distracted by theological arguments and miss the larger purpose of the Gospel.  In this episode: James 1:12-17; James 3:9, 16; James 4:1-7; Proverbs 3:18-19, 34; Genesis 1:28 “Unashamed” Episode 1405 is sponsored by: https://helixsleep.com/unashamed — Get 27% off sitewide and make sure you enter our show name after checkout so they know we sent you! https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare!  https://rocketmoney.com/unashamed — Join Rocket Money and let them help you reach your financial goals faster.  http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Martin Luther's outrage over a corrupt church selling indulgences helped ignite the Reformation, but the beliefs that grew out of that upheaval still shape Christianity centuries later. Zach, Al, John Luke, and Christian trace Luther's struggle with righteousness through Romans, his controversial problem with the book of James, and the tension between faith and works that Christians still wrestle with today. The guys confront the limits of human understanding, exploring whether our obsession with certainty leads us to argue over mysteries we were never equipped to solve. In this episode: Romans 1:16-17, 20; Romans 3; Romans 4; Romans 6-8; Romans 10; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4; James 2; Hebrews 11 Today's conversation is about Lesson 7 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors.

A surprising comparison between pornography and marriage reframes the conversation around sex, beauty, and what can only be understood over the course of a faithful life. Jase, Al, and Zach connect that idea to the difference between what looks good in the moment and what actually leads to life, tracing the pattern from Eden to Solomon to the book of James. Jase also recounts the bizarre moment uninvited visitors made it through his security setup and wound up getting an unexpected message about Jesus and the resurrection. In this episode: 1 Peter 3, verse 15; James 3, verses 13–18; 1 Corinthians 2, verse 14; Psalm 127; James 1, verses 2–6; Exodus 31, verse 3; Exodus 35, verse 31; Psalm 107, verse 27; Genesis 1, verse 2; Proverbs 1–9; Genesis 2, verses 15–17; Genesis 3, verses 2–6 “Unashamed” Episode 1403 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Jase, Al, and Zach look ahead to the AI age and consider why it could make one decidedly old-school part of life more valuable than ever. The guys connect that idea to the family's unconventional relationship with the global church, debating accountability, community, and whether Christians have become too comfortable consuming church instead of living out their faith together. Plus, Zach gets Randy Travis' attention with a viral rendition of “I Told You So,” and Jase channels a little Phil Robertson spirit while sizing up an unsuspecting banker. In this episode: James 1, verses 5–6; James 1, verse 25; James 2, verse 26; James 3, verses 13–18; James 5, verse 14; John 1, verses 1–3; Acts 2, verses 1–47; Acts 15, verses 1–21; Acts 17, verses 16–34; Ephesians 1, verses 17–18; 1 Corinthians 12–14; 2 Timothy 3, verse 16 “Unashamed” Episode 1402 is sponsored by: Go to curehydration.com/unashamed and get 20% off your first order with promo code UNASHAMED https://preborn.com/unashamed — Visit the PreBorn! website or dial #250 and use keyword BABY to donate today. http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College XXXXX NOT YET NOW LINKS XXXXXX — Learn more about your ad choices.

Country music star Jordan Davis traces the surprising ways his life was connected to the Robertsons long before they ever met, from growing up on Phil's Duck Commander videos and hearing him preach as a kid to making “Unashamed” part of his faith journey. Jordan opens up to Jase, Al, and Zach about the years he struggled to make it in Nashville, the wake-up call from his wife that forced him to rethink life on the road, and how becoming a husband and father changed the way he approaches fame, music, and the people in his audience. The guys dig into why success so often fails to deliver what it promises and how faith, family, and strong roots can keep someone grounded when the spotlight gets brighter. Learn more about the faith, family, and hard-earned perspective behind Jordan's music at https://jordandavisofficial.com. “Unashamed” Episode 1401 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare! https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

The abortion debate takes an unexpected turn as Jase, Al, and Zach challenge the language surrounding pregnancy, choice, and what culture has stopped treating as a blessing. Jase connects that to Mia's diagnosis before birth and the perspective shift that changed how he and Missy faced what was ahead without minimizing the difficulty. The guys draw a provocative line between idolatry, sexual immorality, “open marriage,” and what happens when reverence for human life starts to erode.  In this episode: Jeremiah 19, verses 3–4; Jeremiah 22, verses 3–5; James 1, verses 26–27; James 2, verse 8; James 3, verse 9; James 4, verse 2; James 5, verses 5, 9, 13–20; 1 Kings 11, verse 2; 1 Corinthians 10, verses 6–10, 14–22; Matthew 5, verses 21–22; Romans 1, verse 21; Genesis 1, verse 28 “Unashamed” Episode 1400 is sponsored by: https://duckstamp.com/unashamed — Get your digital duck stamp online and keep it right on your phone!

Zach opens up about the crisis of faith that left him questioning whether Christianity was true at all, including the terrifying question that shook him to his core. His awakening to the role of reason in faith leads the guys to put the modern “my truth” mindset to the test and challenge what happens when personal belief becomes more powerful than reality. Al sets the record straight in a decades-old Robertson brotherly squabble about the summer 7-year-old Al was put in charge of his younger brothers while Willie recovered from a serious injury.  In this episode: Romans 1, verse 20; Mark 8, verses 22–26; Job 42, verses 2–6; John 9, verses 1–3; Romans 8, verse 26; John 14, verse 9; Mark 9, verses 14–24; John 20, verse 29; 2 Timothy 3, verse 16 Today's conversation is about Lesson 6 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors.

Korie joins Al, Jase, and Zach to clear the air around the time “Duck Dynasty” producers bleeped her unnecessarily, the battle against manufactured family drama, and her biggest struggle with Hollywood producers. Korie also opens up about the next chapter she and Willie are building through movies, podcasts, and a new family-friendly streaming platform. The guys relive the surprising ways entertainment has shaped how people wrestle with faith, forgiveness, and hope, and Korie shares about her life with 11 grandkids, 20 years of Buck Commander, and the next generation of Robertsons carrying on family traditions. “Unashamed” Episode 1398 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Phil Robertson's voice returns to the conversation in an unexpected way, giving Jase and Al a fresh perspective on the message their dad spent years preaching. Al reflects on the complicated spiritual timing of his relationship with Phil and the gift of finally getting to serve alongside him in his later years. The guys turn to the book of Job, the fear of the Lord, and the role of Satan, pushing back on the idea that the devil has power over our choices.  In this episode: Hebrews 2, verses 14–15; Hebrews 5, verse 7; James 2, verse 19; James 4, verse 7; Job 1, verses 1 and 8; Job 3, verses 25–26; Job 42, verses 1–6 “Unashamed” Episode 1397 is sponsored by: https://www.bruntworkwear.com/UNASHAMED — Get $10 Off at BRUNT with code UNASHAMED and enter THE BRUNT POTTY OF GOLD SWEEPSTAKES for your chance to win $50,000.

Jase heads into deep-blue territory expecting one thing and finds thousands of people who don't fit the political stereotype, sparking a conversation about Christianity's tendency to thrive under pressure. Kyle Thompson, host of “Undaunted Life” and “The Daily Blade,” joins the guys to confront the male loneliness crisis that leaves too many men surrounded by buddies but without anyone they can truly call when life falls apart. The guys also look at why real brotherhood requires accountability, investment, and the willingness to be known rather than simply appearing strong.

Al, Jase, and Zach take a fresh look at the expectations placed on women through the story of two very different sisters, including what happens when one steps outside the role her culture expected. The guys wrestle with the double standards people create for different personalities and why being “wired differently” never excuses jealousy, control, selfish ambition, or a bad attitude. They also look back at Phil's first reaction to the idea of podcasting—a story that may make a lot more sense once the original “lost” episodes that eventually became “Unashamed” start dropping soon.  In this episode: James 3, verses 17–18; Luke 10, verses 38–42; John 11, verses 17–27; John 11, verses 32–35; James 4, verse 7; Matthew 13, verses 1–23; John 15, verses 1–8; Matthew 7, verses 16–20; Romans 12, verse 9; Matthew 10, verses 34–39 Want to watch the Lost Episodes of Unashamed, only on EKKL?

Christian, John Luke, Zach, and Al dig into one of Christianity's oldest debates: whether righteousness comes from human effort or the grace of God. John Luke opens up about spending years trying to be “good enough,” only to realize that discipline and good habits could never replace a real relationship with God. Plus, Christian learns that Jase has apparently started blaming him for a few new studio grievances. In this episode: Matthew 5, verse 48; Psalm 136; James 2, verse 17; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 1–2; Romans 7, verses 24–25; John 17, verse 3; Ephesians 2, verse 8; Romans 5, verses 2 and 5; 1 Corinthians 13, verse 13 Today's conversation is about Lesson 5 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors.

Jase remembers the priceless moment Phil quoted one of his favorite verses, only to double-check the Bible when Jase added the terms and conditions that came next. Jase, Al, and Zach also honor the life of longtime mentor Jim McGuiggan and reflect on the responsibility of carrying forward the faith, wisdom, and example of the great men and women who came before them. Their study of James turns to the kind of heavenly wisdom that trades pride, retaliation, and hidden agendas for purity, peace, gentleness, mercy, and sincere relationships. In this episode: James 3, verses 13–18; Matthew 5, verse 8; 1 John 3, verse 3; Hebrews 11, verses 35–40; Hebrews 12, verses 4, 7, and 11; Job 3, verses 25–26; Matthew 5, verses 38–40; Philippians 4, verse 5; 1 Peter 3, verse 15 Want to watch the Lost Episodes of Unashamed, only on EKKL?

Jase learns that his advice may have been the final straw for a young couple, but he stands by his guidance. Zach's confiscation of a lost and found pair of sunglasses sparks a funny lesson about why parenting doesn't end when children grow up, move away, or get married. The guys turn to James 3 to examine how selfish ambition, hidden motives, and the need to win can quietly destroy marriages and other relationships. The guys also consider the “irony of Jesus,” a carpenter who showed little interest in buildings because he came to build his church and bring God's family back together. In this episode: Matthew 8, verses 19–20; Philippians 4, verses 11–13; 1 John 5, verse 19; James 3, verses 16–18; 1 John 3, verses 11–15; Hebrews 12, verses 11–17; Matthew 5, verses 8–9; James 1, verse 19 Want to watch the Lost Episodes of Unashamed, only on EKKL?

Jase, Al, and Zach examine Dr. Anthony Fauci's Senate “testimony” as a sobering warning about pride, self-preservation, and the danger of your own words catching up with you. The guys connect his public silence and private statements to James' teaching on the tongue, showing how words can expose what is really driving the heart. Zach also offers a provocative Christian “prenup” idea as an example of the kind of faithfulness and covenant commitment believers should bring into marriage. In this episode: Numbers 32:23; James 3:2-18; James 4:4; Ephesians 4:29-32; Ephesians 5:1-2; 2 Corinthians 4:15-16; 2 Corinthians 5:10, 14-20; 2 Corinthians 6:1; Galatians 2:20; Romans 6:22-23; John 12:31; John 17:3; 1 John 1:6-8; Revelation 12:11 “Unashamed” Episode 1391 is sponsored by: https://cozyearth.com/unashamed — Get up to 20% off when you use our link and code UNASHAMED! https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Jase, Al, and Zach trace the roots of socialism, scarcity, and abortion back to a worldview that rejects God's design for humanity. Zach argues that socialism runs against the Biblical command to cultivate, create, and expand, while Jase connects that same survival mindset to ancient child sacrifice and the modern lie that children are liabilities. Al examines Jesus' warnings about Gehenna and shows how the Bible ties justice to the way people treat those made in God's image. In this episode: Genesis 1:28; Genesis 3:15; Jeremiah 17:27; Isaiah 66:24; Matthew 1:1; Matthew 1:18-19; Mark 9:42-50; Luke 1:14; John 1:1, 14; Romans 9:5; Ephesians 2:1-3; James 1:5-27; James 5:1; 2 Peter 1:3-4; Revelation 22:1-5 “Unashamed” Episode 1390 is sponsored by: https://homechef.com/unashamed — Get 50% off and free shipping on your first box plus free dessert for life! http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke examine why the Trinity is far more than an abstract theological debate and why the Gospel depends on Jesus being fully God. The guys trace the ancient dispute over Arius, the Council of Nicaea, and the scriptural language Christians have used to preserve the truth about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Zach recounts Phil's unforgettable one-liner response while standing in the ruins of Zeus's temple. Hear from Phil himself about what it was like to stand among the ruins of fallen gods at https://youtu.be/uzC_Qf6t2HM?si=uZTuoSJ0y1uAUEpV.

Zach's teenage son, Bear, joins Jase, Al, and Zach for an honest look at the pornography, absent fathers, and spiritual confusion affecting his generation. Bear proves how standing openly for Jesus helped other young men at his school step forward in faith, and he reflects on the godly mentors who strengthened his relationship with Christ. The guys consider how families can break destructive generational patterns, why Solomon's legacy warns believers to finish strong, and how Phil Robertson's preaching still points young people toward the only source of true peace of mind. In this episode: Genesis 1:28; Proverbs 3:5; Malachi 2:15-16; Matthew 6:33; 1 Corinthians 6:18-20; James 1:14-17; James 2:14-26; James 3:7; 1 John 2:13-16; 1 John 4:15-17 “Unashamed” Episode 1388 is sponsored by: http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Uncle Si lets slip the very Si-like thing he says whenever he catches his reflection in the mirror. Jase, Al, and Gordon happily promote Si to elder statesman of the Robertson clan while they trace James' warning about gossip, slander, bitterness, and the unruly tongue. Gordon recalls the church hurt that consumed him until the Lord's Prayer forced him to reconsider forgiveness and the way he viewed the man who wounded him. The guys discover how remembering that every person bears God's image can transform relationships, unite unlikely people in Jesus, and replace the fear of death with real freedom. In this episode: James 1:23–24; James 3:1–18; James 4:1–3; Romans 1:26–27; Romans 2:12–14, 27; Romans 3:9–18; Romans 11:21–24; Galatians 2:15–21; Galatians 3:26–29; Galatians 4:4–8; Matthew 5:44; Matthew 6:9–15; Matthew 11:18–19; Matthew 12:22–37; Matthew 15:1–20; Matthew 21:18–32; Luke 10:25–37; Luke 15:1–32; John 3:16–17; Hebrews 2:14–18; 2 Peter 1:3–4 “Unashamed” Episode 1387 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare! http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Jase and Al's uncle Gordon Dasher steps in as Zach's replacement—and possible upgrade. The guys trace James 3 back to Genesis, uncovering how fear, survival instinct, and selfish ambition can drive people to tear one another down. Jase recounts a mysterious, painful, and perhaps venomous injury that left him contemplating his early demise. Gordon opens up about the painful realization in his own life that careless words and gossip can damage reputations, wound relationships, and deny the image of God in others.  In this episode: James 1:14–20; James 3:1–13; Genesis 9:1–6; Ephesians 2:1–11; Hebrews 2:14; 2 Peter 1:3–4 “Unashamed” Episode 1386 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

‘My Jesus' singer Anne Wilson connects with Jase, Al, and Zach over how personal loss transformed their faith and gave them a greater urgency to point others toward Jesus. Anne's new book, “Rebel,” inspires a conversation about turning a rebellious streak toward the Lord and standing against a culture that wants Christians to stay quiet. The guys reflect on Phil's unashamed legacy, worshiping through tragedy, and finding lasting purpose on the other side of grief. Anne gets real about her struggle to keep her identity grounded in God rather than fame or success.  In this episode: Romans 1:16; Exodus 3:11–14; Job 1:15, 20–21 “Unashamed” Episode 1385 is sponsored by: https://bravebooks.com/unashamed — Use code UNASHAMED for 20% off your order! https://vanman.shop/unashamed — Get 15% off your first order with code UNASHAMED https://fastgrowingtrees.com — Get 20% your first purchase when using the code UNASHAMED at checkout. http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke trace the Gospel of Mark's surprising answer to the mystery running through all creation: Christ in you, the hope of glory. The guys connect Jesus to the kings, prophets, priests, sacrifices, and promises of the Old Testament, showing how the Bible forms one continuous story fulfilled in him. They also examine why the disciples recognized Jesus' power but struggled to accept a Messiah who would conquer through suffering. The cross ultimately reveals the true nature of God's strength and the radically different life his kingdom offers.

Al and Jase compare notes on cooking for Miss Kay and the family memories stirred up by her favorite foods. The guys confront a culture where everyone wants a platform, but too few people respect the responsibility that comes with teaching or influencing others. They discuss how careless words fuel pride, arguments, slander, empty promises, and hollow religion. A strange detour into French kissing, bacteria, and the complexity of the human tongue sends Jase reeling into a germophobic uproar. In this episode: James 1:5–6, 13, 19, 26; James 2:2–4, 12, 14–18; James 3:1–11, 16; James 4:2, 11, 13, 16; James 5:1, 4, 9, 12–20; 1 Peter 4:11; 2 Corinthians 5; Psalm 141; Exodus 3; Matthew 21:28–31 “Unashamed” Episode 1383 is sponsored by: https://rocketmoney.com/unashamed — Join Rocket Money and let them help you reach your financial goals faster.  https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Martin heroically steps in when Jase's plan to fulfill Miss Kay's urgent request suddenly falls apart. Jase turns a chaotic weekend of surprise houseguests, strange boyfriends, and overflowing trash into a bigger conversation about what genuine faith looks like in everyday life. The guys compare Abraham and Rahab, showing how two deeply flawed people can act with courage because they trust God.  In this episode: James 2-3; Joshua 2; Genesis 12-22; Matthew 1; Romans 9; 1 Corinthians 1; Hebrews 11; Hebrews 13:12-16 “Unashamed” Episode 1382 is sponsored by: https://smartcredit.com/unashamed — Get a 7-day trial for just $1, see how many points you can add to your credit score! https://cozyearth.com/unashamed — Get up to 20% off when you use our link and code UNASHAMED! http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Jase, Al, and Zach return to Genesis to answer the question culture and even a Supreme Court justice struggled to define, tracing what Scripture says about men, women, their differences, and every person bearing the image of God. The guys dive into church favoritism, empty “thoughts and prayers,” and the difference between simply believing in God and living out a faith that is truly alive. Zach and Jase can't decide who's the poorer listener, and Jase decides Zach's new hairstyle is proof that his midlife crisis has officially arrived.  In this episode: Genesis 1:26-28; Genesis 2:18-23; Matthew 5:13-16; Matthew 22:37-40; Mark 16:20; Romans 8:19-28; 1 Corinthians 1:9; 1 Corinthians 3:9; 1 Corinthians 16:16; 2 Corinthians 6:1; 1 Timothy 2; James 2:1-26 “Unashamed” Episode 1381 is sponsored by: Upgrade your wallet today!

Jase, Al, and Zach confront the fear-driven control that keeps parents hovering long after their children need room to grow. Jase recounts the radical prayer he prayed when his own kids rebelled and explains why parents must ultimately trust God with the people they love most. The guys connect Abraham's obedience, living faith, and the hope of resurrection to the difficult work of letting go without giving up. They also challenge Christians to move beyond merely believing in God and begin living as though they truly believe him. In this episode: Genesis 1:28; Genesis 2:15; Genesis 3:15; Genesis 9:1; Genesis 11:4; Genesis 12:1–3; Genesis 26:4; Matthew 1:1–16; Luke 20:27–38; John 12:23–32; James 2:14–26 “Unashamed” Episode 1380 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Al, John Luke, Christian, and Zach consider how social media can distort people's words, fuel misinformation, and make respectful disagreement harder. “Unashamed” opens the door to a more personal conversation with some of the show's louder online critics. The guys contrast religions built around appeasing angry gods with the God of Scripture, who provides the sacrifice and pours out grace on his people. In this episode: Revelation 12:11; Isaiah 64:4; Isaiah 8; Acts 17:25; 2 Samuel 7; John 14:6; Galatians 3:16-17, 22, 26-29; Hebrews; 1 Corinthians 3:9; Genesis 1:26; 1 John 4:8, 10.

A man's lifelong hope to die while worshiping becomes reality when he collapses during a song based on Psalm 90, giving Jase, Al, and Zach a sobering reminder to number their days. The guys contrast that peaceful view of eternity with a billionaire biohacker's costly quest to reverse aging and escape death, then connect Phil's final years to Al's growing urgency to leave a lasting legacy for his family. Jase digs into James 2 and Genesis 22 to show why real faith cannot remain only a belief—it listens, trusts, and acts even when God's plan seems impossible. In this episode: Psalm 90; James 1; James 2:14–26; Genesis 3:15; Genesis 12; Genesis 22; Joshua 2; Matthew 1; John 1; John 3:16; John 3:19–21; John 8:58; Romans 4:20–21; Romans 9; Hebrews 6; Hebrews 11 “Unashamed” Episode 1378 is sponsored by: https://chministries.org/unashamed — Get a better solution at half the cost of traditional healthcare! https://www.bruntworkwear.com/UNASHAMED — Get $10 Off at BRUNT with code UNASHAMED #Bruntpod #sponsored http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

The Robertson family may have stumbled onto a surprisingly simple secret to a long, healthy life, and Jase, Al, and Zach compare the routines that have kept generations of their family going strong. The guys also reflect on a military veteran who searched for truth in Islam before finding peace in Jesus, then turn to James 2 for a hard look at favoritism, wealth, and celebrity culture inside the church. They challenge every Christian to reflect on how they treat others, and dig into why even correct theology becomes empty noise when it is separated from the character of Jesus. In this episode: James 1:4; James 1:27; James 2:1–26; Deuteronomy 6; Exodus 20; Genesis 1:26–28; Genesis 9; Genesis 10–11; Joel 2:28; Acts 2:5–17; Acts 15; 1 Corinthians 1:26–31; John 5; Matthew 5–7 “Unashamed” Episode 1377 is sponsored by: https://homechef.com/unashamed — Get 50% off and free shipping on your first box plus free dessert for life! curehydration.com/unashamed — Get 20% off your first order with promo code UNASHAMED https://bravebooks.com/unashamed — Use code UNASHAMED for 20% off your order! https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

Jase, Al, and Zach confront the political division tearing at America and challenge listeners to examine the way they view people on the other side. Jase takes the Robertson family's most destructive young wrecking ball under his wing, a pairing that seems destined for chaos. The guys explore why faith leaves no room for treating people as lesser and how the gospel dismantles the labels that keep us divided. Jase also brings up the mysterious James Ossuary, an ancient burial box that sparked years of controversy over its possible connection to Jesus' brother. In this episode: James 1:26–27; James 2; James 3:14–16; James 4:8; James 5:5, 8; Acts 15:1–19; Galatians 1:18–19; Galatians 2:7–11; Ezekiel 11:19; Ezekiel 36:26; Jeremiah 31:33; 2 Corinthians 3:3; Hebrews 8:10; Hebrews 10:16; Psalm 139; Amos 9; 2 Samuel 7; Matthew 28:18–20 “Unashamed” Episode 1376 is sponsored by: Taking care of your health just got easier – start here with Zocdoc: https://zocdoc.com/UNASHAMED #sponsored https://fastgrowingtrees.com — Get 20% your first purchase when using the code UNASHAMED at checkout. https://vanman.shop/unashamed — Get 15% off your first order with code UNASHAMED http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Check out At Home with Phil Robertson, nearly 800 episodes of Phil's unfiltered wisdom, humor, and biblical truth, available for free for the first time!

Jase drops the news that Phil and Miss Kay's legacy of serving the homeless inspires local doctors to honor their work by transforming the site of their former ministry into a new community clinic. The guys push back on a culture that turns every sin, struggle, and bad decision into a diagnosis while avoiding confession, accountability, and the healing that comes through Jesus. They trace America's freedom back to biblical truth, arguing that the Founding Fathers' failures did not make the principles they wrote any less true or worthy of fulfillment. In this episode: Acts 4; John 14–16; James 5:16; Galatians 5:1, 13; James 1:4, 17, 25; James 2:8, 12, 22–23; 2 Peter 2; Philippians 3:18–21; Romans 1; Genesis 1:26–27 “Unashamed” Episode 1375 is sponsored by: https://meetfabric.com/unashamed — Join the thousands of parents who trust Fabric to help protect their family. http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

The greatest proof that God is real may be far simpler than most people expect. Zach recalls dismissing his mom's uncomplicated answer about seeing God in creation, only to hear one of the world's leading Christian philosophers give nearly the same response the very next day. Al, Christian, and John Luke join him to examine how nature, Scripture, reason, and faith work together to reveal who God is, why blind faith is not biblical faith, and how believers can keep growing beyond shallow social media theology. The guys laugh about Jase promising a 15-minute sermon when he's famously long-winded and come to the realization that announcing only the winner's first name could leave multiple Mirandas wondering if they're the winner of the 'Unashamed' studio visit giveaway.   In this episode: 1 John; James 1–2; Genesis 1; John 1; Romans 1:20; Hebrews 11; Ecclesiastes 3:11; Psalm 139 Today's conversation is about Lesson 1 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition.

Phil's daughter Phyllis opens up about the story behind her book, I Never Knew, and the hardships she faced during the 44 years before her reunion with the Robertson family. Phyllis reflects on the difficult and sometimes dark road that shaped her, the calling that led her into counseling children and families, and the surprising tenderness Phil showed her during the six years they spent together before his passing. Jase and Al connect her story to their own family wounds, the way counseling helped their marriages and children, and the biblical picture of moving from fear into sonship through Christ.  In this episode: Romans 8:13-17; Acts 17; Philippians 3; James 1; 1 Corinthians 13; Psalm 139; John 14-17; Genesis 3 “Unashamed” Episode 1373 is sponsored by: https://myphdweightloss.com — Find out how Al lost 80+ pounds.

The America 250 celebration gives the guys a patriotic jump-start as Zach brings back a firsthand report from Washington, D.C., including a moving visit to the Museum of the Bible, run-ins with secret service, and the world's largest-ever fireworks show. Jase, Al, and Zach connect America's story to the deeper foundation of Scripture, tracing how God's Word has endured through history and still points people toward the source of real freedom.

The Robertsons clash with modern culture's anti-family message as Jase and Zach open up about the children who changed their families forever and the biblical calling to care for widows, orphans, and the vulnerable. Jase shares the Walmart bathroom prayer moment that reminded him how “Unashamed” is reaching whole families. The guys connect James' definition of pure religion to Jesus' warning about protecting children, the spiritual danger of giving evil a foothold, and why God's design for family still stands against the isolation of the world.

Jase and Zach pipe in from the very first Walmart edition of ‘Unashamed,' complete with sardine breath, Nashville traffic, and a surprisingly full-circle flashback to the days when ‘Duck Dynasty' took over Walmart aisles. Al owns up to the embarrassing mistake he made about a roadside motel sign. Jase explains why he walked away from an event that wanted him to speak but leave Jesus out of the message. The guys continue their study of James with a deep dive into hearing versus obeying, the house built on the rock, the perfect law that gives freedom, and the love of God that restores our identity in Christ.

Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke wrap up Ancient Christianity with stories about sermon critiques, mispronounced words, and the kind of mentorship that only works when trust has been earned. Al shares how a gift from his granddaughter brought Phil's larger-than-life legacy to mind, while John Luke explains how he turned the Roman Empire into a summer camp lesson about Jesus, persecution, and the kingdom of God. The guys dig into Augustine's impact on the Trinity, the incarnation of Christ, and why God must reveal himself before we can truly know him.  In this episode: John 1:1; Genesis 1:28; John 17:3; John 14:6; Ephesians 3:10; Luke 15; Psalm 48:1-8; 1 John 4:8-10; Romans 1-2; Romans 7:24-25 Today's conversation is a recap of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/. More about Ancient Christianity: Christ entered the world during the reign of Caesar Augustus. The tensions between Christianity and the Roman Empire shaped the daily practice of the Christian faith and led many Romans to distrust and persecute the early Christians. But Christianity also benefitted from the Roman world. And when Rome collapsed in the West, Christianity provided the hope for preserving civilization. In this free, eleven-lecture course, Professor Kenneth Calvert will explore: How the Jewish, Greek, and Roman cultures all contributed to preparing the world to hear the Gospel. Why many Romans distrusted and persecuted the early Christians. The inspiring stories of Christ, His apostles, and faithful ones throughout the first four centuries of Christianity. The arguments of key early Christian apologists—Ignatius, Irenaeus, Justin, Athanasius, and more—who defended and defined the Christian faith amidst the animosity of the Roman world. The conversion of Constantine and how he brought stability to Rome, and how the rivalry between his sons almost returned Rome to paganism. How Augustine's writings helped preserve the message of Christianity during the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West. You will discover the uncertainties, trials, and triumphs of the earliest Christians as they confronted controversies within the faith and persecutions from outside it. Join us today to discover the improbable and miraculous story of Christianity.

Missy and Jase debrief from the chaos and success of their Faith, Family, Freedom event after extreme heat, power outages, and a string of problems felt like evil forces were trying to shut it down. Al gives a report on Miss Kay's review of the whole event, and Zach previews his trip to D.C. for America's 250th celebration.

Jase breaks character and accepts a stranger's dinner invite, only to discover a secret ingredient that leaves him confused and intrigued. Zach puts to bed the rumors of his questionable origins, and Al reflects on Lisa's story of spending 33 years seeing herself through a broken lens before one major turning point helped her understand her life in a whole new way. The guys explore how being born again gives broken families a true fresh start, not by erasing what happened, but by giving them a new Father, a new identity, and a new legacy to build from.

Phil's late-night motel room mix-up became an instant Robertson classic when a stranger chose the wrong door to break into during an old Duckmen road trip. Jase and Al admit there's one long-running Robertson family tradition they've never had any desire to participate in, even after years of being surrounded by it. Jase faces a real-life test of James' command to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry. The guys dig into the transfiguration of Jesus, why God's command to “listen to him” still matters, and how hearing the words of Jesus should lead directly to obeying them. In this episode: John 10:10; James 1:5; James 1:19-22; Luke 9:28-36; John 5:39-40; John 6:32-35; Luke 24:44-47 “Unashamed” Episode 1366 is sponsored by: https://fastgrowingtrees.com — Get 20% your first purchase when using the code UNASHAMED at checkout. http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Al, Jase, and Zach admit that James' command to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry hits close to home, especially in a family where everyone learns early to speak up or get left out. The guys react to JD Vance turning questions about Iran into a public proclamation of Jesus, faith, and becoming the kind of man he knew he couldn't become without God. Jase connects a brutally honest New Orleans story and Little Man's spaghetti-night revelation to the aroma of Christ, the goodness of Jesus, and the kind of faith that moves from words into action.

John Luke's attempt to turn a four-foot rat snake into a calm teaching moment for campers goes sideways fast, leaving the kids panicked and John Luke woozy at the sight of his own blood. Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian use Augustine's story to dig into why modern people are so restless, why getting what we want still doesn't satisfy us, and how our appetites quietly train our hearts. The guys contrast Augustine's confession of sin with today's culture of self-worship. Al points to history's examples of Christianity's tendency to bring order, healing, and hope out of cultural chaos. In this episode: Romans 7, verses 21–25; Romans 8; 1 Corinthians 9, verses 24–27; Philippians 2, verses 5–11; Genesis 1, verse 31 Today's conversation is about Lesson 11 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert.

Willie and Korie get dragged into a bizarre AI-generated baby hoax, and Al, Zach, and Jase dig into the creepy new world of artificial intelligence, from fake relationships and AI “friends” to people using chatbots to justify sin. The guys connect the modern AI echo chamber to James' warning about deception, and Jase points to Cain, Abel and the Holy Spirit as the difference between artificial intelligence and real life with God.

Jase, Al, and Zach dig into the parenting rhythms that plant God's word in kids early, including the moment a Jase's godson thought God was too far away to hear him pray. Zach connects sin to a false version of reality that promises freedom but produces death. Al reflects on Liam Neeson's iconic movie “Taken,”  and the scene that illustrates the perfect picture of what it means to be a man of your word, in truth and action. In this episode: John 1, verse 1; James 1, verses 14–18; James 1, verse 21; James 2, verse 26; Genesis 1, verse 3; Psalm 33, verse 6; Psalm 148, verse 5; John 4, verses 46–54; Psalm 92, verses 5–15; Isaiah 55, verses 8–12; Ephesians 3, verses 16–19; Matthew 18, verses 1–14; Luke 15, verses 1–32; Revelation 12, verse 9; Matthew 22, verses 23–33 “Unashamed” Episode 1362 is sponsored by: https://meetfabric.com/unashamed — Join the thousands of parents who trust Fabric to help protect their family. https://rocketmoney.com/unashamed — Join Rocket Money and let them help you reach your financial goals faster. https://unashamedgold.com — Get a free 2026 Gold & Silver Guide and a no obligation consultation!  http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Jase rehashes the behind-the-scenes ‘Duck Dynasty' snake bite that never made the show, including the 9-fingered snake handler and Willie streaming blood on camera. Al's visit to Bella's Duck Commander office leads the guys into a bigger reflection on Phil's tiny original duck call shop and the evidence that Phil's mission has now lasted four generations. The guys explore the dignity of honest work, why every job can become a platform for Jesus, and how Christians are needed in the marketplace just as much as they're needed in the church.

Al, Jase, and Zach call out the entitlement mindset that turns gifts into demands, and Zach traces how a me-first mindset can make comfort and success feel empty. The guys connect that cultural trap to Solomon's downfall, showing what happens when wealth, power, women, and success capture our desires. Jase takes aim at Western civilization's obsession with actors and celebrity culture, asking why we celebrate people for pretending to be someone else while ignoring the same kind of hypocrisy when in real life.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian connect the hidden influence of faithful mothers from Constantine's mom to Miss Kay with the way one unknown believer can change history through a single faithful conversation. The guys look at Constantine's complicated legacy, from the Nicene Creed and the spread of Christianity to his violent family history and deathbed baptism. They also connect ancient Rome's struggle over faith, power, and paganism to modern America's temptation to make Jesus smaller than politics, party loyalty, personal peace, or cultural identity. In this episode: 1 John 4, verse 8; 1 John 4, verse 10; John 1, verses 1–14; Philippians 2, verses 5–11; 1 John 2, verses 18–23; 2 John 1, verse 7; John 17, verse 3; Acts 17, verse 24 Today's conversation is about Lesson 10 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/. More about Ancient Christianity: Christ entered the world during the reign of Caesar Augustus. The tensions between Christianity and the Roman Empire shaped the daily practice of the Christian faith and led many Romans to distrust and persecute the early Christians. But Christianity also benefitted from the Roman world. And when Rome collapsed in the West, Christianity provided the hope for preserving civilization. In this free, eleven-lecture course, Professor Kenneth Calvert will explore: How the Jewish, Greek, and Roman cultures all contributed to preparing the world to hear the Gospel. Why many Romans distrusted and persecuted the early Christians. The inspiring stories of Christ, His apostles, and faithful ones throughout the first four centuries of Christianity. The arguments of key early Christian apologists—Ignatius, Irenaeus, Justin, Athanasius, and more—who defended and defined the Christian faith amidst the animosity of the Roman world. The conversion of Constantine and how he brought stability to Rome, and how the rivalry between his sons almost returned Rome to paganism. How Augustine's writings helped preserve the message of Christianity during the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West. You will discover the uncertainties, trials, and triumphs of the earliest Christians as they confronted controversies within the faith and persecutions from outside it. Join us today to discover the improbable and miraculous story of Christianity.
