Send us Fan MailShould Christian authors write to market—or write the stories God has placed on their hearts?In this episode of The Christian Indie Writers' Podcast, we tackle one of the biggest debates in publishing: writing to market versus writing from passion. Is studying reader trends a smart business strategy, or does it risk compromising your creative voice? Can Christian authors balance ministry, message, and market realities without losing what makes their stories unique?Join us as we discuss what "writing to market" really means, the dangers of chasing trends, and how authors can find the sweet spot between serving readers and staying true to their calling. Whether you're just starting your writing journey or building a long-term author career, this conversation will help you think strategically about your books without sacrificing authenticity.

Confidence. Modesty. Purity culture. Femininity. Being “sexy.” Whew… yeah, the Aunties went THERE.

Can Christian majority societies and Muslim communities find common ground on some of the most contested issues of our time?In this research seminar, Professor Robert Wintemute, Professor of Human Rights Law at King's College London, explores a compelling framework of reciprocal tolerance: if Christian-majority societies continue to legally protect visible Muslim religious practices, can Muslim communities in turn come to accept the secular legal recognition of same-sex marriage?Drawing on landmark case law from the UK, France, Canada, the United States, Germany, and South Africa, Professor Wintemute examines how courts have navigated the tension between institutional neutrality and religious accommodation — from disputes over the niqab and jilbab to the banning of religious symbols in French schools and Québec's public sector. He then turns to the rapid global expansion of same-sex marriage — now legal in 38 countries — and asks what a genuinely pluralistic society might look like when competing rights claims are taken seriously on all sides.Audio Chapters:00:00 Introduction03:12 Majority Acceptance of Visible Muslim Diversity03:24 The Birmingham Case That Changed UK Law10:41 Religious Accommodation in Canada, USA & South Africa13:51 France, Europe & the Secularism Debate24:48 Quebec: Canada's French Exception29:00 Give & Take: Same-Sex Marriage30:08 Criminalisation vs. Recognition Worldwide32:15 Muslim Acceptance of Secular Same-Sex Marriage

Can Christian business owners be generous without being reckless? If you're a faith-driven entrepreneur who wants to live open-handed and lead with wisdom, this video is for you. As business owners, we're constantly balancing growth, revenue, responsibility, and stewardship—while still feeling called to generosity. In this video, I answer a question I get all the time:

Can Christian parents faithfully obey Deuteronomy 6 and Ephesians 6 while sending their children to schools where teachers are forbidden by law to honor God? In this hot-button episode, Kevin and Danny "take the gloves off" and revisit historic warnings about secular education, the sacred–secular divide, and the myth of neutral math and science. Is this the sin we dare not name in the American church?

One of my goals with this podcast is not simply to talk about the spiritual but also the systemic. One could argue that the two are actually intertwined. Can Christian spirituality thrive in the midst of a toxic system? Is it possible to be formed opposite the ways of Jesus while using the name of […] The post #376: An Honest Look At The Systems That Shape The Church In America with Phillip Joubert appeared first on Beyond Sunday Worship.

Today I critique Lori Alexander The Transformed Wife, highlighting her legalistic teachings and their harmful effects on women in faith. I assert that Alexander propagates self-created, unilateral standards about women working outside the home that contradict biblical examples, lack grace, and puts burdens on women. I urge readers to reject Alexander's burdensome doctrines and instead seek supportive ministries that align with true biblical teachings.

Should Christian Morality Shape Our Laws? A Deep Dive Can Christian morality guide modern governance without alienating a diverse society? This podcast explores the provocative question of whether biblical principles, like ordered love—prioritizing God, family, and community—should influence legislation. Dr. Darren Guerra and Dr. Jacob Daneil join Lenny to discuss whether governments share the same moral duties as individuals, such as charity and justice, or if their role is distinct. The discussion traces the rule of law's roots to Christian ethics while questioning how far biblical mandates should extend to secular institutions. Should governments enforce virtues like forgiveness or stewardship, or is their purpose purely pragmatic? With rising cultural divides, we examine if Christian morality offers a unifying framework or risks exclusion. Join us for a nuanced debate on balancing faith, freedom, and governance in today's world.

Christianity for Thinking People: The William Lane Craig Interview Can Christian faith stand up to rigorous thought? The answer is a resounding yes and you can see why in this interview with Dr. William Lane Craig on his latest project, Systematic Philosophical Theology. This innovative work explores why Christianity isn't just for the heart but for the head, it isn't afraid to ask hard questions, and shows how Christianity can be a thrilling intellectual adventure for those who crave a thinking person's spirituality.

Deep Dive is on vacation this week, so we are re-running our most listened to After America episode. We'll be back next week with an all new holiday episode of Deep Dive.----Can Christian nationalism coexist with American democracy, or is it a threat to the very foundation of our nation? This episode kicks off with an in-depth analysis of Mike Johnson's rise to Speaker of the House and how his Christian nationalist views are shaping the legislative landscape. We discuss the erosion of the separation of church and state, exploring how Johnson's leadership might be steering the country towards authoritarianism.We examine the historical intertwining of evangelicalism and conservative politics. From the televangelism boom driven by figures like Pat Robertson and James Dobson to the influential Moral Majority founded by Jerry Falwell, we trace the path that has aligned evangelical Christians with the Republican Party. We delve into the consequences of this alliance, from Reagan's judicial appointments to the overwhelming support for Donald Trump, illustrating how a desire for traditional values has paved the way for more authoritarian leadership.Finally, we discuss the rise of militant Christian nationalism and its alarming impact on American society. We dissect the process of online radicalization, the normalization of extremist rhetoric, and the unsettling intersection of Christianity and right-wing extremism. We also examine the broader implications, including mass deportations and the undermining of democratic institutions.

If Diddy Is Your Dad, Do You Know Right From Wrong? Could the sins of the father really extend to the son? Christian Combs, the son of music mogul Diddy, finds himself embroiled in a civil suit alleging sexual assault—an echo of allegations against his father. Delivered to Diddy's Miami mansion, these charges paint a grim picture of luxury and entitlement gone awry. What's it like to serve the elite on a yacht, only to face alleged dangers far beyond the job description? Attorney Eric Faddis dives deep into the complexities of this case, questioning whether growing up in such an environment leaves moral blind spots. As legal strategies clash with high-profile reputations and the public eye, one wonders if the next generation is destined to repeat past mistakes or rise above them.

George Barna released a survey showing that 104 million people of faith, which includes 32 million Christian regular church goers, are projected to abstain from voting in the upcoming election. This is a staggering figure considering that we have important issues at stake such as religious liberty, the lives of the pre-born and sexual immorality being promoted in our education system. Recognizing this fact, Crosstalk invited Debbie Wuthnow as a guest. She is president of iVoterGuide, a division of American Family Association Action. Debbie joined iVoterGuide in 2011 as a data analyst and was named president in 2018. Debbie began by noting how the statistics tend to validate the idea that stewardship and civic responsibility are not being taught in the schools or even churches. Instead, apparently many people are just going to go on with their lives choosing to be ignorant of the impact that those we elect have over every aspect of our lives. This explains why we have the kind of government or school districts that we have because people aren't voting their values by participating in the voting process.Review this critical edition of Crosstalk and you'll discover just how important it is to recognize the stewardship of your vote. For example, Debbie covered the following:Do Christians really have an accountability before God as to if or how they cast their vote?Why are some Christians hesitant to vote?Can Christian voters impact the outcome of an election?How can illegal immigrants affect an election?How does iVoterGuide work?There's much more to take in, including plenty of input from Crosstalk listeners.

Can Christian themes hold their own against blockbuster franchises like "Fast and the Furious" and "Iron Man"? Join us as Todd Freeman, a seasoned filmmaker turned ministry director, shares his insights on the power of "suspension of disbelief" and how it allows audiences to embrace even the most fantastical elements in storytelling. We explore why Christian filmmakers have been slow to harness this tool and discuss how authentic stories like "A Most Reluctant Convert," the film about C.S. Lewis, can bridge the gap between faith and film.What if Christian movies went beyond the wholesome Hallmark feel? In our conversation, we challenge the stereotype and push for a new era of faith-based storytelling characterized by realism and relatability. By examining films like "The Apostle" with Robert Duvall, we illustrate how flawed, complex characters can resonate with broader audiences while subtly conveying profound Christian themes. It's about crafting narratives that speak to the human experience, transcending the boundaries of traditional Christian media.Can a Christian horror film be both authentic and spiritually enriching? Todd Freeman thinks so, and he draws from his unique upbringing under a Baptist minister father who introduced him to both horror movies and the gospel. We tackle the potential criticisms and discuss the significance of films like "The Passion of the Christ," which set a precedent for raw, unfiltered biblical storytelling. The aim is to create impactful films that stand on their own as great art while opening doors for deeper conversations about faith, much like Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel.Ask Ralph - Christian FinanceJoin financial expert Ralph Estep, Jr - Daily tips for balancing your faith and finances.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Dani Pettrey, author of the book One Wrong Move.  Dani has sold nearly 800,000 copies of her novels to readers eagerly awaiting the next release. Dani combines the page-turning adrenaline of a thriller with the chemistry and happy-ever-after of a romance. Her novels stand out for their "wicked pace, snappy dialogue, and likable characters" (Publishers Weekly), "gripping storyline[s]," (RT Book Reviews), and "sizzling undercurrent of romance" (USA Today). Her Alaskan Courage, Chesapeake Valor, and Coastal Guardian series have received praise from readers and critics alike. She's been honored with multiple awards, including the Daphne du Maurier Award, two HOLT Medallions, a two-time Christy Award finalist, two National Readers' Choice Awards, the Gail Wilson Award of Excellence, and Christian Retailing's Best Award. From her early years eagerly reading Nancy Drew mysteries, to paging through Agatha Christie novels or watching on-the-edge-of-her-seat adventure movies, Dani has always enjoyed mystery and suspense. She considers herself blessed to be able to write the kind of stories she loves--full of plot twists and peril, love, and longing for hope and redemption. Her greatest joy as an author is sharing the stories God lays on her heart. She researches murder and mayhem from her home in Maryland, where she lives with her husband. In my book review, I stated that One Wrong Move is a Christian Mystery and Suspense with a great side of romance. Andi is ex-FBI because of what the higher-ups called a botched job. She now works as an investigator for an insurance company. After a gallery heist, she meets Christian, a security expert and private investigator who installed the gallery's security system. Immediately, the two find themselves in the middle of some strange game with the thief or thieves who leave riddles for them to find. Unfortunately, the object of the "game" seems to include the demise of both Christian and Andi. As they dodge one attempt on their life after another, Andi and Christian have to face their feelings for one another as well as the mistakes in their pasts. Will Andi be vindicated? Can Christian convince Andi that he is on the up and up? Or will those intent on killing them win before they know?

We are living in unprecedented times when Christian leaders are renouncing their faith, and large numbers of believers are falling away. Is this the final apostasy prophesied by Jesus and Paul?

Have the Culture Wars come to Christian schools? Two Christian schools in Florida and Louisiana were confronted with the issues of gender, sex, and same sex marriage.  One school has even received death threats because of their biblically based policy regarding sexuality and relationships.  The other removed a student due to the parents same sex marriage.  Can Christian schools do this? On what basis - legal or spiritual?  Is there any good way to prepare or respond to these cultural pressures on religious schools that hold to biblical values?  Dr. Walt Swaim gives a report on these events and then responds with a biblical worldview.  Audio only & video on most podcast apps and at https://truthunbound.podbean.com Sources and help: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/kindergartner-louisiana-allegedly-forced-school-parents-are-sex-couple-rcna42475 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/florida-school-will-only-refer-students-biological-gender-rcna43545 https://albertmohler.com/2022/08/23/briefing-8-23-22 https://facebook.com/GraceChristianSchoolValricoFlorida/videos/administrations-response-to-the-nbc-article/971824160885336/ Info@TruthUnbound.org https://truthunbound.org/ The book: https://truthunbound.org/sale%3A-%22to-be-clear%22-book-1 Facebook: search for “Truth Unbound”

How do you heal from trauma—whether individual, familial, or collective? Can Christian spirituality help? The tumultuous time we find ourselves in serves up regular doses of the suffering and pain of others—war wages destruction, migrants are left to die of heat exposure, hate crimes based in bigotry and fear of ethnicity or orientation or identity leave us all feeling numbed to our humanity; and with the aid of our phones, we even risk a dependency relationship with that trauma. It's constantly leveraged for political gain, power, money, or ugly fame. If we see the game of human culture as a zero-sum struggle for power, someone's political gain is always another's loss. Someone's joy another's sorrow.How are we supposed to find our human siblings? Add to this the unspoken trauma that haunts so many of us—myself, you listeners, that person in your life who seems strong and impervious to harm—we all carry our lifetime's worth of trauma even if we act like it's not there. But as Bessel Vander Kolk's best selling title captures so well, even when your conscious mind does that surreptitious work to ignore, deny, suppress, or forget trauma—"the body knows the score." But perhaps so too the spirit knows the score.Today, Bo Karen Lee joins Ryan McAnnally-Linz for a conversation on trauma and Ignatian spirituality. Bo is Associate Professor of Spiritual Theology and Christian Formation at Princeton Theological Seminary, and has written and taught contemplative theology, prayer, and the connection between spirituality and social justice.This conversation is a beautiful and sensitive—and sometimes quite raw—exploration of trauma and the human experience. But the clarity and courage reflected in Bo's presentation of how trauma threatens the human mind and body is matched by a powerful empathy and peace, as she reflects on moving through a spiritual journey from victim or bystander of trauma to a beloved, seen, known, and loved by God and other deeply caring helpers. The discussion that follows offers a concise introduction to the Ignatian spiritual tradition, as well as a holistic comment on how trauma at the individual, genetic, family, and national level can be acknowledged, addressed, and acted on.This episode was made possible in part by the generous support of the Tyndale House Foundation. For more information, visit tyndale.foundation.AboutBo Karen Lee, ThM '99, PhD '07, is associate professor of spiritual theology and Christian formation at Princeton Theological Seminary.

Her book, Sacrifice and Delight in the Mystical Theologies of Anna Maria van Schurman and Madame Jeanne Guyon, argues that surrender of self to God can lead to the deepest joy in God. She has recently completed a volume, The Soul of Higher Education, which explores contemplative pedagogies and research strategies. A recipient of the John Templeton Award for Theological Promise, she gave a series of international lectures that included the topic, “The Face of the Other: An Ethic of Delight.”She is a member of the Presbyterian Church (USA), the Society for the Study of Early Modern Women, and the American Academy of Religion; she recently served on the Governing Board of the Society for the Study of Christian Spirituality, and is on the editorial board of the journal, Spirtus, as well as on the steering committee of the Christian Theology and Bible Group of the Society of Biblical Literature. Before joining Princeton faculty, she taught in the Theology Department at Loyola College in Baltimore, Maryland, where she developed courses with a vibrant service-learning component for students to work at shelters for women recovering from drug addiction and sex trafficking. She now enjoys teaching classes on prayer for the Spirituality and Mission Program at Princeton Seminary, in addition to taking students on retreats and hosting meditative walks along nature trails.Production NotesThis podcast featured Bo Karen Lee and Ryan McAnnally-LinzEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Annie Trowbridge and Luke StringerSpecial thanks to the Tyndale House Foundation for their generous support.A Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/give
