In this timely and honest episode of the Strength & Weakness podcast, Morgan and Ellen open up about the complexities many Christians face during Pride Month. With personal stories, theological insight, and practical wisdom, they explore questions like: Why is Pride Month so divisive for Christians? Do I have to celebrate? Do I have to reject it? What does love look like here?Whether you've been invited to a Pride event, are raising kids in today's culture, or are personally navigating same-sex attraction and faith, this episode holds space for grief, compassion, and truth. Ellen shares her experience attending Pride as a young lesbian, the painful contrast with church community, and how we can lean into the tension of “the messy middle” without compromising biblical conviction.This isn't a conversation about choosing sides—it's about choosing Christlike posture.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, we dive deep into a disturbing and tragic event—the bombing of a fertility clinic in Palm Springs by a self-proclaimed "pro-mortalist." While grieving the loss of life, we also explore the unsettling philosophical underpinnings of this act, including anti-natalism, pro-mortalism, and the idolization of consent as the highest moral authority. For Christians seeking thoughtful, theologically grounded discussions on current events, this conversation unpacks how modern moral frameworks—rooted in radical autonomy, subjective consent, and distorted views of love and freedom—can lead to logical yet dangerous conclusions. We contrast these ideologies with a biblical worldview, challenging the cultural narrative that human beings are the ultimate moral arbiters. Join us as we confront the implications of being born "without consent" and what it reveals about our cultural moment.DONATE LINK: ⁠https://toltogether.com/donate ⁠BOOK A SPEAKER: ⁠https://toltogether.com/book-a-speaker⁠JOIN TOL CONNECT: ⁠https://toltogether.com/tol-connect ⁠TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

The post When Politics Fail, the Gospel Endures: A Christian Response to Cultural Shifts appeared first on Straight Truth Podcast.

This episode addresses how Christians should respond when political outcomes oppose biblical truth. Using the 2025 Canadian election as a case study, Dr. Richard Caldwell explains that the church must not despair when governments fail but remain faithful and focused on Christ. Rather than putting hope in political movements or cultural morality, believers must proclaim the Gospel, trust in God's sovereignty, and live as light in a dark world.

In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Dr. Joe Boot and Dr. Michael Thiessen delve into Buddhism's surprising influence on Western thought.

Diving right into the thick of it, the latest episode of the Rapp Report tackles the intersection of faith and law, a topic that's as spicy as a Southern BBQ in July. Andrew Rapoport welcomes the insightful Davis Younts, a scholar blending his passion for Christianity with a sharp legal mind, to dissect the often contentious relationship between biblical principles and the American legal system. They kick off their chat by addressing the misconception that Christians should shy away from engaging with legal matters, especially regarding legislation that can impact the church and its congregants. Younts elaborates on how understanding faith and law is crucial, particularly in light of recent judicial decisions and the implications for religious freedom. With a sprinkle of humor and a hefty dose of thoughtful analysis, they navigate the complexities of how secular humanism reshapes societal norms and what that means for Christians called to stand firm in their beliefs amidst an ever-evolving legal landscape.Takeaways:The podcast explores the intersection of faith and the legal system, emphasizing that Christians should not shy away from engaging in legal matters. The guest, Davis Younts, stresses the importance of understanding Christian principles in shaping America's legal framework, citing the Bible's historical influences on the Constitution. They discuss the challenges Christians face in a secular world, where legal battles often arise around religious freedom and moral values. The conversation highlights the need for Christians to participate actively in public life and the legal system rather than retreating into silence during times of cultural upheaval.

Pastor Ben explores how a Christian should respond to the push to legalize marijuana by asking how we should think about these issues as a Christian. Message originally preached Wednesday evening January 22, 2025.

The National Cathedral's Prayer service the day after President Donald Trump's inauguration has stirred up a controversy that's been brewing in Christianity for decades, if not more. It's the divisiveness over how the Body of Christ should respond to the LGBTQ community. Forget how the Right Rev. Mariann Budde, the Episcopal Bishop of the Diocese of Washington D.C., chose to use her pulpit to scold the newly re-minted President of the United States; that's actually a side bar to the real concern. The underlying dispute is Mainline Protestantism's schism over gender and sexuality. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, culture expert and theologian Dr. Alex McFarland, a frequent podcast guest, uncovers the long-simmering discord in Christianity that simply can't be ignored any longer. Much of what Dr. McFarland says may be unsettling to many people, if not downright offensive. But he says, if The Bible is indeed God's Word, and faith in Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation, then he is called to speak the truth in love. Learn more about your ad choices.

They tell me that a dog is man's best friend. I hope so, because if you have one of those best friends you get to go for a walk with him very, very often, right? I mean, it's nice to have a walk with your best friend. Of course, you often see folks in our neighborhood walking their dog, and occasionally you see a humorous variation on the old theme of a man walking his dog. There's this very big dog and this not so big person, and you see the owner desperately trying to control and keep up with his dog. It's a great picture. You chuckle to yourself and you think, "Oh, look at that dog walking the man!" It's kind of backwards. I mean, it's funny to see a person being led by something that they're supposed to be leading, right? Or is it? I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "The Battle for Your Body." Our word for today from the Word of God is from 1 Corinthians 9, and I'm going to be reading verses 24-27. It's about controlling or being controlled; the issue Paul's writing about. He says, "Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training; they do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore, I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave, so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize." Now, Paul is, of course, giving us an Olympic picture here, and what he's really saying is that a champion cannot let his body walk him like that man had the big dog taking him for a walk. You've got to control your body. I watched my son at football practice, and the coaches, man, they put them through the ringer. Why? They wanted the players to learn that when your body feels like quitting, you've got to keep going. You don't stop at the first sign of fatigue or pain, "Oh, I hurt. I'm going to quit." You've got to train your body so you control it and it doesn't control you. That means that if you're a champion, you keep going even if you don't feel like it. It means you don't necessarily eat whatever you want. You don't quit when you feel like quitting; you don't indulge yourself. Now, if you and I are going to be spiritual champions, we've got to stop letting our body call the shots, and too often we do. We have an appetite to eat, so we do. We have a lustful desire; we let it wreak havoc in our soul. We don't exercise to protect that temple of God; the place where God lives - this body, because we don't have time and we don't feel like it. We're letting our body make the decisions. In his book The Christian Response, Michel Quoist says, "If your body makes all the decisions and gives all the orders, and if you obey the physical, you can effectively destroy every other dimension of your personality." Wow! Over 200 years ago, Susanna Wesley, John Wesley's mother said, "Whatever increases the strength and authority of your body over your mind - that is sin to you." We're going to have to learn championship techniques here, to deny our appetites and desires, and to exercise daily practices of saying no to your body. Look, has your body been walking you? It's time to get control again. There's an important spiritual reason for passing up that food I don't need, the drink I should never use, the sexual flirtations I should avoid. My body, uncontrolled, will wage war against my soul! "Lord, once again, become the lord of my body." Say to Him, "Lord, I've been on the wrong end of this leash long enough."
