Being a godly dad is tough. No one who's been down that road would argue with you there. However, it's easy to fall into the "good old days" trap of thinking this is just a recent development. Instead of trying to figure out who's had it the hardest over the course of history, let's make sure we understand why it's so hard: because Satan doesn't like godly dads discipling their kids. If you're a dad, we've got news for you. You're in a fight, and your enemy is the Enemy. However, God will equip you to take on these challenges as you trust in him. Today, let's confront the enemy's attacks on us and our families through the power of God's Word.   Free Survival Gear reading plan: https://manhoodjourney.org/survival-gear Buy Kent's latest book Don't Bench Yourself here: Don't Bench Yourself on Amazon  Support the show and upgrade your fatherhood swag. Shop Range Leather and get 15% OFF with code MJ15

TAKEAWAYSMost western churches function like corporations, and they are often divorced from conversations about anything supernaturalThe global flood and Joshua's conquest make a lot more sense with the proper historical context regarding the NephilimThe Book of Enoch is not considered Biblically canonical, but it is a worthwhile historical text that's referred to in the BibleAncient legends of demigod heroes like Hercules likely stemmed from stories of Nephilim

Have you ever been involved in a relationship that was toxic or unhealthy? It could be with a spouse, friend, family member, or coworker. Have you felt that someone has taken a piece of your heart or that even you have taken a piece of theirs? God has designed us to have healthy relationships and healthy boundaries. When we get into unhealthy relationships, and our hearts mesh with theirs, we can form unhealthy soul ties. Listen in to Tiffany Jo Baker as we dive into the topic of healthy and unhealthy soul ties.Listen in for;What exactly a soul tie looks likeHow we can easily form unhealthy soul tiesWhere we may have unknowingly allowed boundaries to be crossedHow to Biblically remove soul tiesFavorite Quotes:"Soul ties are two souls that are joined and knitted together." - Tiffany Jo Baker"Bad soul ties can happen even between spouses, parents, children, and friends." - Tiffany Jo Baker"When a God-given and ordained boundary is crossed, an unhealthy soul tie can be the result." - Tiffany Jo BakerFavorite Scripture:"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." - Psalm 147:3✨ If you're looking for perfectly polished people or podcasts, this might not be for you.

Summary:In this episode of The Show Up Dad, host David Mendonca engages with Pastor Craig Castor, founder of FDM World Ministry, to discuss the critical role of discipleship in fatherhood and family dynamics. They explore the impact of narcissism on relationships, the importance of surrendering to God, and the challenges of navigating marriage and parenting responsibilities. The conversation emphasizes the dangers of unforgiveness and the necessity of healing through forgiveness, while also addressing the church's role in discipleship and the power of God's Word in transforming lives.Takeaways:Discipleship is essential for understanding and fulfilling family roles.Narcissism can be weaponized in relationships, causing harm to families.Surrendering to God is crucial for personal and relational healing.Many Christians lack proper discipleship, leading to ignorance in their faith.Forgiveness is a powerful tool for healing and breaking cycles of pain.The church must prioritize discipleship to combat ignorance among believers.Unforgiveness can lead to bitterness and various negative consequences.God's Word provides the necessary guidance for healing and transformation.Understanding one's past is vital for moving forward in faith and relationships.The responsibility of parents is to lead their children in a godly manner.

The Genius of Generosity | Proverbs 3:5–10Is it possible to have both peace and joy in your finances? In this message, we unpack the genius behind biblical generosity—and it all starts with one powerful idea: honor creates alignment.Using Proverbs 3 and a surprising illustration involving a Mousetrap (yes, the game!), we explore how starting your financial life with God—“Yahweh et Kabbed”—puts every other piece in place. This isn't a prosperity formula. It's not about giving to get. It's about worship. It's about starting where God calls us to start.When we honor God not just with our tithe, but with our whole approach to money, we move toward alignment, clarity, and ultimately, peace and joy.

This first book is the true story about horse diving in the United States. Wrapped up in the friendship between Wild Bill Hickok, Buffalo Bill, and Doc Carver, the origin of horse diving is fascinating and the full story is bound to intrigue any history lover, but especially horse enthusiasts. Hannah next reviews the book Mama Bear Apologetics by Hillary Morgan Ferrer et al. Written for moms but appropriate for both parents, this is a dive into the various ideologies our children face in the 21st century. Ferrer and her co-authors help parents recognize the various ideologies and then respond to them Biblically. Hannah recommends this book for any parent but ideally for small group settings. https://www.thehannahmillershow.com/podcasts/https://bobslone.com/contact/bob@bobslone.com

Culture often pits faith and science against each other—but as believers, we know they are intentionally and beautifully woven together by our Creator for His people to explore and enjoy. Yet, studies show that by age six, many girls already perceive themselves as less capable in STEM-related fields than boys—a gap that only widens over time. How can we, as parents, counter this message and inspire our daughters to see science as an avenue for both discovery and worship?  In this episode, American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Patti Garibay welcomes back marine biologist, science author, and veteran homeschooling mom Sherri Seligson to explore how faith and science go hand in hand. Sherri shares her journey from studying shark behavior at Walt Disney's Living Seas to equipping families with Biblically grounded science education. She unpacks why engaging in STEM is vital for girls—not just for career opportunities, but for deepening their faith and confidence in God's design.  From overcoming barriers in STEM to cultivating awe through nature, Sherri offers practical encouragement for parents looking to integrate faith and science in their daughters' education. Plus, she gives us a glimpse into her latest book, Wonders of the Ocean Realm, revealing how the intricacies of marine life point directly to the Creator. If you want to encourage your daughter to explore science while strengthening her faith, this episode is for you!  Learn more about Sherri's work and Wonders of the Ocean Realm at sherriseligson.com  Find an American Heritage Girls Troop near you, visit americanheritagegirls.org       Add even more Biblical wisdom to your parenting quiver, visit raisinggodlygirls.com

The international birth rate has been cut in half since 1950. The US birth rate has gone from 3.4 to 1.7 within this most recent generation, and the average evangelical church has a birth rate just above the national average. The result is that we're looking at the largest demographic shift since the world-wide flood. We're living in a self-centered age that is all about "me," which isn't helping either. Do Christians need to look different from the world on the issue of birth control? What is the difference between birth control and conception control? Is conception control Biblically allowed? Kevin Swanson and Joshua Schwisow discuss these questions and more on this edition of the program. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (What Trump thought during Butler assassination attempt, 60 Christians slain in Nigerian genocide, Texas whistleblower testifies about horrors of 'transitioning' children)2.

This feminine superpower is designed to build relational connectivity and love in big, multigenerational families, but is often misunderstood and completely ignored in the modern world. Jeremy discusses the ideal use for this in a large family and how it is such a blessing to husbands and the entire family, but also shows why it's so maligned these days. He reacts to a couple videos, one from Jonathan Haidt, and another of Jordan Peterson to show just how important it is for wives and mothers to cultivate this amazing superpower.

This One Behavior Makes You Impossible to ManipulateImagine walking through a pitch-black room, filled with hidden traps. You're stumbling, unsure of your next step. But then—someone flips on the light. Suddenly, you see everything clearly. The confusion ends. The danger loses its grip.Manipulators thrive in darkness—confusion, doubt, and emotional chaos are their playground. But when you develop discernment, it's like flipping on that light. You begin to see people's true motives, not just with your eyes, but with spiritual clarity.What Is Discernment?Discernment isn't just a gut feeling—it's clarity. It's the ability to see beyond appearances and recognize what's really going on beneath the surface. Biblically, it's a gift from God (Hebrews 5:14) that helps you separate truth from lies, care from control.Discernment allows you to:Recognize manipulation, even when it's subtle.Trust what God reveals over what someone says.Understand motives, not just messages.Think of it as a spiritual lie detector—one that exposes deception before it takes hold.Why Manipulators Lose Power When You Have DiscernmentThey Can't Confuse You Anymore You stop second-guessing yourself and clearly see through:GaslightingGuilt tripsHalf-truthsThey Lose Control Over Your Emotions Discernment helps you respond with wisdom, not reactivity. Without access to your emotions, manipulators lose their grip.They Get Exposed Manipulators hide in confusion—but clarity shines a light they can't escape.The Catch: Discernment Requires Emotional StabilityDiscernment is powerful, but without emotional stability, it won't protect you. Emotional instability makes you vulnerable—even when you see the truth. For example:Craving love can blind you to toxic patterns.Loyalty to “family at all costs” can keep you in dysfunction.Fear of conflict can make you over-apologize and backtrack.Build Emotional Resilience in 3 StepsDetach from the Need for Approval Let go of needing to be liked—it's your greatest defense.Stop Explaining Yourself Manipulators don't need more info—they want control. Silence disarms them.Master the Power of the Pause Don't react. Pause. Breathe. Respond in strength, not fear.When you combine discernment with emotional stability, manipulation loses its power. In the next episode, we'll explore what to do when manipulators escalate—even after you've reclaimed your clarity and peace.

In our current world of debt, leverage and turmoil, we are never more than one crisis away from major changes instituted on us by the authorities in the name of "protecting" the citizens of the country. Today I am going to show you through the Scriptures that in politics, the general rule is that: "You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that is that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before" -Rahm Emanuel. BIBLICALLY: “20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh, for all the Egyptians sold their fields, because the famine was severe on them. The land became Pharaoh's. 21 As for the people, he made servants of them[a] from one end of Egypt to the other. 22 Only the land of the priests he did not buy, for the priests had a fixed allowance from Pharaoh and lived on the allowance that Pharaoh gave them; therefore they did not sell their land. 23 Then Joseph said to the people, “Behold, I have this day bought you and your land for Pharaoh. Now here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land. 24 And at the harvests you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four fifths shall be your own, as seed for the field and as food for yourselves and your households, and as food for your little ones.” 25 And they said, “You have saved our lives; may it please my lord, we will be servants to Pharaoh" (Genesis 47:20-25).Please SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNEL as a free way to support our efforts and reach the world for God.I want to invite you to join my COMMUNITY at No Cost at www.StevenGarofalo.ComBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reason-for-truth--2774396/support.

The decision to have kids - or, more commonly these days, to NOT have kids - isn't just some random decision your kids make. It comes after years of seeing how you treat fatherhood and motherhood. Whether you value it. Whether you've taught them the importance of their gender and how God intentionally created them that gender, and that He loves certain things about that gender. If you value family, having kids, and obeying God, then you need to actually train your kids to WANT to become parents. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:23 Raising Kids Who Want to Become Parents 3:05 ANNOUNCEMENT: Family Inc Opening Again! 6:40 Success Stories from Family Inc. 9:37 Teach Your Kids To Want Kids 12:13 Fertility Crisis and Cultural Influences 22:28 The Risk of Hyper Individualism 29:56 Idea Viruses Attacking Our Children's Desire To Be Parents 31:35 Creating A Pro-Feminine Culture 44:46 Modern Fear of Correcting Children 50:01 Modeling Thriving Parenthood Resources Mentioned: Family Inc: https://courses.familyteams.com/familyinc Discipleship Program: https://1kh.org/ --- Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that just doesn't know how to love Him.  This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with return guests, the team behind Sweetbitter Podcast (@sweetbitterpod), Leesa Charlotte (@leesacharlotte) and Alyse Knorr (@spikeskywalker12), to talk about why the 1973 Pope-approved rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar Should've Been Gay. This movie answers the question, “What if the entire story behind the crucifixion was really just about Judas having a crush on Jesus?”.  Jesus Christ Superstar is a campy masterpiece with a soundtrack that honestly slaps. It features the most dragtastic version of white Jesus we have ever seen surrounded by a bunch of leather daddies in the desert. While there are a few things in the film that had us side-eyeing the 70s (and Leigh still isn't 100% convinced the movie she saw was not actually a porn parody), according to resident researcher Alyse, the story is actually pretty Biblically accurate.  From the homoerotic undertones of Jesus turning to all his boyfriends with a loaf of bread and being like, “eat me”, to the oddly Gelphie-coded relationship between Judas and Jesus, we explore how much better religion can be when it's queer.  We know one thing for sure, Jesus Christ Superstar Should've Been Gay.

Who is God? Why should we learn the covenant names of the Lord? Rabbi Schneider shares how the names of God help us to understand God's nature, how we cooperation with the grace of God to bear fruit, and that the Lord waits for us to say yes to Him to release power in our lives. Biblically the word Shalom imbues wholeness, completeness, and restoration. Father God has entered into a covenant of complete peace through Jesus with His people; spirit, soul, mind, and body. If you want more peace, you must deny your flesh and feed your spirit with the love of God. When you sow from the spirit, you will reap from the Spirit love, joy, and peace.   Visit our website at DiscoveringTheJewishJesus.com

Did Evangelical theology—specifically  ⁨@MikeWinger⁩ 's armchair theology—make gay marriage inevitable? That's exactly what we're breaking down today. Mike Winger argues that marriage is just a "public covenant" that doesn't require priesthood authority—but if that's true, what's stopping the state from redefining it? Spoiler: Nothing.In this video, we expose the logical contradictions in Winger's take on marriage, using his own words against him.We'll cover:✅ The "public covenant" myth—why it's not biblical✅ If authority wasn't required to marry, then why did Jesus cite Moses' authority to introduce divorce?✅ How Protestantism erased priesthood authority, setting the stage for modern marriage debates✅ The Matthew 19 misinterpretation—and why the Sadducees were "thinking Biblically" (aka, winging it)✅ Mike Winger's own words on the afterlife and marriage—and the hilarious ironic contradictions of his argument If Evangelicals removed divine authority from marriage, they don't get to be mad when society takes them up on the offer to redefine it. Let's talk about it.

Parent the boy in front of you. Books, websites, and friends can be great sources of wisdom for parenting advice. But as you're listening to others, don't forget this profound truth– there is no one else on earth who is exactly like your son. You have been hand selected by God to be your son's parent. That means there is no one else– no, not even that parenting expert with several degrees– who is better equipped to be the mom or dad your boy needs. So yes, by all means, seek out Biblically sound parenting advice.  But don't forget to also spend time in prayer, asking God to give you the specific wisdom you need to make that advice work in the best way for your uniquely created son.

Who gets to call themselves a missionary and why does it matter? In today's episode of The Missions Podcast, Alex and Scott sit down with Matthew Ellison and Denny Spitters to revisit the question of "who is a missionary?". There is still great confusion in the church about what the Great Commission is and the need to go to the unreached. Does missions require crossing cultures? What is the biblical definition of missions? What's the big deal if we say that everything is missions? Matthew Ellison is President of 1615, an organization that helps churches clarify their global mission, develop mission strategies, and take steps toward that strategy. Denny Spitters is a Coach with 1615. Together, they are releasing the second edition of their book, "When Everything is Missions". They also host their own podcast, When Everything is Missions. In this week's Overtime episode, the group discusses the results from a recently commissioned Barna study on what are pastors are currently saying about missions.

One of our favorite ways to disciple our kids - while having a ton of fun - is to celebrate the 7 Biblical feasts. They're not just for Jewish people...they all prefigure Christ, and are an amazing opportunity to talk about the Gospel to our kids on an annual rhythm. This month's focus in the Family Teams Accelerator is how to lean into the 4 Spring Festivals, and in this episode we give you a sneak peak into some of our tips and rhythms, as well as what to expect as you begin to celebrate things like Passover, Shavuot, etc. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 0:39 It's Odd That Most People Don't Live Spiritual Seasons 1:32 The 4 Biblical Spring Holidays 3:49 Why Celebrate These Holidays 4:31 How The Pryor's Have Developed Their Family Festival Celebrations 10:56 These Festivals Are All About Christ 17:30 How To Celebrate Passover 24:10 Family Shavuot Celebrations 27:12 Join The Accelerator This Month!

Did you hear about the guy who owned last year's top-performing funds? Yeah, it's too bad he bought them this year, though.There's a lot of evidence to suggest that buying and holding index funds will pay off in the long run. Benji Bailey joins us today to make the case with some impressive numbers.Benji Bailey is Vice President of Investments and Senior Fixed Income Manager at Praxis Mutual Funds, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.The Importance of Indexes in InvestingTo understand index funds, we can view them like guideposts in a national park. Just as signs direct visitors to scenic views and help them stay on the right path, indexes serve as essential benchmarks for investors. These benchmarks, such as the S&P 500 for large-cap stocks or the Bloomberg Aggregate for bonds, allow investors to measure their progress toward financial goals.Without these guideposts, investors risk straying off course, possibly realizing too late that their portfolio has been heading in the wrong direction. Publicly available indexes provide a crucial check-in, ensuring investments align with long-term objectives.Many investors believe they can outperform the market by actively trading stocks. However, research suggests otherwise. A study published in The Journal of Finance found that individuals who frequently traded stocks underperformed compared to those who traded less.Over a six-year period:The market returned approximately 18% annually.Less active traders saw returns of around 16.4%.The most active traders only achieved 11.4%, underperforming by over 6%.This trend highlights the dangers of excessive trading. Warren Buffett summarized it well: “The stock market is designed to transfer money from the active to the patient.” The Bible echoes this wisdom in Proverbs 13:11: “Wealth gained hastily will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it.”Active vs. Passive Mutual FundsA key distinction in investing is the difference between active and passive mutual funds:Active funds: Managed by professionals who handpick a smaller set of stocks, hoping to outperform the market.Passive funds: Designed to mirror an index, holding a broad range of stocks for stable, long-term growth.According to Morningstar, over the past 15 years, only 9% of actively managed large-cap funds outperformed their passive counterparts—meaning 91% of active funds underperformed. This data suggests that passive investing can be a more reliable strategy for many investors.Aligning Investments with Faith ValuesMany faith-driven investors worry that traditional index funds may include companies whose values don't align with their beliefs. Praxis Mutual Funds addresses this concern by screening out companies involved in industries such as:AlcoholTobaccoGamblingAbortion-related businessesHowever, the more companies an investor removes from an index, the greater the potential for volatility in returns. For example, removing just one company from the S&P 500 would have little impact, but excluding half of the index's stocks would significantly increase volatility.Praxis Mutual Funds utilizes an optimized equity index strategy to balance faith-based values with financial performance. Instead of replicating an index, Praxis screens out objectionable companies and uses a software-driven approach to reallocate funds into a diversified mix that closely tracks the market's performance.This method allows faith-based investors to remain aligned with their values without sacrificing reasonable returns.The Role of Patience in InvestingMarket volatility can make investing an emotional challenge. Many investors instinctively buy when the market is high and sell when it's low—precisely the opposite of what leads to long-term success.Historical data shows that the S&P 500 has had an average annual return of around 10% over the past 97 years, but actual yearly returns rarely fall near that average. Investors who stay the course and focus on long-term gains are more likely to benefit from market growth.The Bible encourages this patient approach in Ecclesiastes 11:2: “Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come upon the land.” Diversification and patience are essential principles for wise investing.Making a Positive Impact Through InvestingBeyond screening out specific companies, Praxis Mutual Funds takes an active role in making a positive impact through:Proxy voting: Ensuring shareholder influence aligns with faith values.Shareholder engagement: Advocating for ethical corporate practices.Community development investing: Allocating 1% of funds to microfinance and social impact projects.Faith-based investing is about more than avoiding harmful industries; it's also about using investment dollars to create meaningful, Christ-centered change in the world. Whether through index funds or faith-based investment strategies, the goal is to align financial decisions with biblical principles.As Proverbs 21:5 reminds us: “The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.” A well-planned investment strategy, guided by faith and patience, can lead to lasting financial fruitfulness.For those interested in learning more about faith-based investing, Praxis Mutual Funds provides a wealth of information at PraxisInvests.com.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:As the executor of my deceased relative's estate, do I need to report my role to FinCEN, similar to reporting the controlling party of a company?I'm 85, and I draw Social Security.

One of the greatest misunderstandings of the Old Testament, is that the Levitical Offerings provided forgiveness of sin, until Christ came. This confusion hinders us to think Biblically about the Temple and Levitical Offerings in general. In this video, we will explore the Levitical Offerings and Biblical prophecy in detail. Let's discover the beauty of what God has given in Leviticus! This is an excerpt from a past livestream. Watch the full video here: https://youtube.com/live/WBZx_NvjcvU?...

Jeremy is joined by Rory Groves, who moved his family to a homestead 12 years ago and eventually quit his software engineer job to build a family economy. They talk about the implications of the industrial revolution and how anti-family (and anti-God) it is, and how families can start to make the mindset shift to build a family economy in a modern world. There are some really fundamental, theological questions that require wrestling with, because so many Christians today give up some fundamental arguments to the secular world, and Jeremy and Rory break many of these down around topics like work, family, economy, and more. They look ahead at the next few years and what to expect with AI, and Rory gives an overview of his book Durable Trades as a way to defend your family against the likely devastation that's incoming. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:05 Rory's Journey From Programming To Farming 5:55 Did God Design Family To Work Together? 8:07 The Industrial Revolution...Disaster? 17:53 The Economic Implications of a Family-Centered Life 23:12 The Family as The Basic Economic Unit 29:36 How Important is Land? 31:01 How To Launch Into A Family Economy 35:14 The Future of AI and How Families Can Properly Defend Themselves 41:30 Family Worship Rhythms Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com Resources Mentioned: Family Life by Kevin Swanson: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0996171983/ The Natural Family by Allan Carlson: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0747Q5XKL/ Durable Trades by Rory Groves: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1725274140/ The Grovestead Newsletter: https://www.thegrovestead.com/newsletter/ Gather and Grow: https://gatherandgrow.us/ Family Inc: https://courses.familyteams.com/familyinc --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

It's Tuesday, March 11th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Supreme Court takes case of Christian counselor vs. transgenderism The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear a Colorado case of a counselor who has been cited for counseling clients under 18 about a Biblically sound position on homosexuality and transgenderism.   Alliance Defending Freedom will argue that the Colorado law violates counselor Kaley Chiles' freedom of speech. Colorado law currently allows counseling conversations that aim to steer young people towards transgenderism, but prohibits conversations that aim to help them to remain content with their God-given gender. Thus far, 26 out of 50 U.S. states have endorsed body-mutilating surgeries for children between the ages of 13 and 17. Thousand citizens and militants killed by Syrian government France 24 reports as many as a thousand citizens and militants have been killed by supporters of the new Syrian government over the last few days. Execution style murders are being conducted in the Alawite State of Northwest Syria, and some of the victims are Christians.   Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa denounced the violence. Al-SHARAA (through a translator): “Anyone who commits violence against civilians will be held accountable. It is our duty to protect our compatriots.” Menacing warships from Russia, China, and Iran Eastern nations are forming closer military and political alliances as warships from Russia, China, and Iran initiated joint exercises on Monday in the Gulf of Oman. This is the fifth such drill since 2019.  Dutch reject one true God, turning to false Muslim god Religious faith is declining in the Netherlands.  A recent survey found only 13% of the Dutch consider themselves Protestant, and only 4% attend Protestant churches. That compares to 6% of the Dutch aligned with the Muslim religion. The study discovered that Protestants are losing adherents by a rate of 3% every decade, while the Muslims are increasing by a rate of 1% every ten years. Swiss Evangelicals drop from 34% to 3% Another survey conducted in Switzerland found only 3% of the population attend an Evangelical church. And the Evangelical population has dropped off to 19.5% of the population, down from 34% in the year 2000. Over the same period of time, the Muslim population increased from 3.6% to 6.0%. The rate of Protestants leaving the Swiss churches has topped 1.6% per year. Catholics are leaving the church at the rate of 1.2% per year. The warning from Romans 11:20 to be humble is appropriate for the Gentile nations: “Because of unbelief [the branches] were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear. For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.”  Wyoming Gov. cuts property tax 25% and bans transgender nonsense Wyoming Republican Governor Mark Gordon signed several bills mirroring the Trump agenda over the last week.   He signed a bill cutting property tax by 25%, and another bill banning government programs which favor or disfavor people on the basis of religion, race, or sex. John MacArthur: “I'm on my last lap.” Pastor John MacArthur appeared on video at his Shepherd's Conference last week. The 85-year-old pastor of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California and the voice of the Grace to You radio ministry has undergone three heart surgeries and lung surgery over the last several months. He noted that he's slowly recovering strength after the ordeal. He closed his address with these words. MacARTHUR:  “I realize I'm on the last lap. That takes on a new meaning when you know you're on the short end of the candle. But I am all thanks and praise to God for everything He's allowed me to be a part of and everything He's accomplished by His Word in these years of ministry. Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord, Jesus Christ.” MovieGuide affirmed best pro-family movies and actors The 2025 pro-family MovieGuide annual awards were announced last week. The most inspiring movie award went to the Catholic story of “Cabrini.” The film “Reagan” on the life of the U.S. president, received the Faith and Freedom award. The most inspiring performance of an actress went to Candace Cameron Bure, for her role in “A Christmas Less Travelled” on the Great American Family Network. And the most inspiring performance for an actor was awarded to Jesse Hutch for his role in “Christmas Under the Northern Lights.” Bitcoin down, Gold up Bitcoin has lost 22% of its value in the last month. Gold is up 4%, now hovering around $2,900 and change per ounce. The U.S. trade deficit has spiked 100% year-over-year in January, hitting a record $155 billion — which would amount to almost a $2 trillion annual deficit. Exercise helps sleep And finally, it turns out that exercise is helpful for sleeping.  That's the conclusion arrived at by researchers studying a group of 2,170 people ages 60 and older. Muscle training such as lifting weights and doing pushups improved sleep scores by 5.75 points and aerobic exercise improved sleep scores by 3.76 points.  1 Timothy 4:8 reminds us that “while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, March 11th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Where do American theological, moral, and political concepts of freedom and liberty come from? How do Scripture and our culture view "freedom" differently, and how can pastors help the Church's ability to think Biblically about "freedom"? This and more on today's podcast!Exiles in Babylon

Thoughts for Singles about Finding a Spouse Think Wisely about Marriage Genesis 2 - not good for the man to be alone Hebrews 13:4 - marriage is honorable Honorable means valuable; of great price; precious (minerals or diamonds) Brad Wilcox, professor of Sociology at U of Virginia Get Married: Why Americans Must Defy the Elites, Forge Strong Families; and Save Civilization Marriage binds men to the children they father. It stabilizes the romantic relationships of adults and the family lives of children. It bridges the gender divide between men and women; endows the lives of women and especially men with a deeper sense of meaning, direction, and solidarity; and, above all, provides the ideal context for the bearing and rearing of children. Marriage is certainly the “keystone institution” for our nation. At the civilizational level, this institution has, across the course of American history, promoted prosperity and reduced the risk of widespread poverty at both the state and national levels. It has reinforced the rule of law and minimized the risk of crime and mass disorder. It has boosted the physical health and emotional well-being of the general population. It has maximized the odds that children across the country are happy, healthy, and well prepared to take their place as virtuous citizens in our civilization. For all these reasons, married families maximize the odds that ordinary men, women, and children succeed at that quintessential American quest, “the pursuit of happiness.” Stay away from those who are unBiblical One of the most influential leaders for the young men of our country Wedlock is designed to control the peasantry.

Is it pointless to try to leave a family legacy when your great grandkids probably won't even know who you are? That's what business influencer Alex Hormozi said recently. "Just help people now, don't worry about a family legacy", is essentially his argument.
