And the Christian should know from God's Word that sinful ideas come from unregenerate minds. Romans 8 says, “the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, and those who are in the flesh cannot please God” (Romans 8:7-8).The depravity and death we see all around us in our culture, particularly millions of aborted babies, all manner of sexual and gender perversion, and suicide and euthanasia, are the direct result of ideas from minds that hate God and His truth and design.As shown in a new documentary film titled The 1916 Project by executive producer Seth Gruber, the wicked lineage of this God-forsaking worldview in America is built block by block upon well-known names like evolutionist Charles Darwin, abortionist Margaret Sanger, and pervert Alfred Kinsey and many other lesser known influencers like Thomas Malthus, Francis Galton, Havelock Ellis, and Emma Goldman.Gruber reveals how these men and women are the reason why abortion today is seen as “My body, my choice,” “love is love,” “gender is fluid,” and “children need to explore their sexuality at the youngest ages.”Seth Gruber joins us today on The Christian Worldview to discuss Margaret Sanger and the History of the Death and Depravity Revolution in light of The 1916 Project documentary film.-------------------Order The 1916 Project DVD

The Church is the chosen people of God, not a geopolitical state. So why are we being told that standing with the a government equals standing with God?We'll unpack the phrase “Judeo-Christian”—what it really means (and what it doesn't)—and discuss how religiously manipulative narratives can cloud our judgment.

Send us a textGUEST: BRAD KLASSEN, professor and teacher, Men of the WordYou've heard about “the war on men”. In fact, Owen Strachan, author of a book by that title was interviewed on The Christian Worldview on Nov. 18, 2023.Owen described how our society seeks to emasculate men in order to stamp out what they call “toxic masculinity”. At a more fundamental level, what animates this war is a rejection of God and his design and role for men. Instead of being the leaders, cultivators, and protectors God designed, men become passive, weak, and cowardly.The way back from this morass isn't as superficial as an in-your-face dressing-down by a drill sergeant or calls from the social media “manosphere” to “man up”. Nor is it as simple as engaging in manly things, like operating a chain saw or pumping iron in the gym.Our guest this weekend, Brad Klassen, Professor of Bible Exposition at The Master's Seminary and teacher of Grace Community Church's men's group “Men of the Word”, will explain how reclaiming Biblical manhood starts inside the mind and the heart.For when a man's mind is renewed according to Scripture (i.e. Romans 12:1-2) and when he is fueled by a love for God over himself and over the things of the world, God does a transforming work to make a man what He designed him to be.TEACHING SERIES with Brad KlassenThe Christian Mind seriesSearching for Significance series

Why has Pride Month become less about tolerance and more about forced celebration—and what can faithful churches do about it? In this episode of Refining Rhetoric, Dr. Rosaria Butterfield—former lesbian activist turned pastor's wife—explains how LGBTQ ideology became a cultural idol and why the evangelical church's "winsome" approach has failed. She offers biblical guidance for churches and parents on how to faithfully respond during Pride Month by boldly proclaiming gospel truth rather than negotiating with idols. Key Discussion Points: -              How the gay rights movement evolved from privatization to mandatory celebration -              Why LGBTQ ideology functions as an idol demanding worship and child sacrifice -              The evangelical church's failed strategy of compromise over truth -              Practical advice for parents of prodigals struggling with sexual sin -              What churches should do during Pride Month instead of staying silent -              Why Gen Z is hungry for bold truth over therapeutic excuses Resources: https://rosariabutterfield.com/ "The Lust of the Flesh: Thinking Biblically About Sexual Orientation" by Jared Moore "The Enemy Within" by Chris Lundgaard John Owen's works on indwelling sin "From Transgender to Transformed" by Laura Perry Smalts Decision Point (decisionpoint.org)   This episode of Refining Rhetoric is sponsored by Copper Lodge Library 2025 New Releases  Explore the exciting new 2025 additions to the Classical Conversations Bookstore!

Today, we're taking a look at the unraveling mayhem situation in California, where Governor Gavin Newsom's failure to lead has allowed chaos to run absolutely wild. Violent riots involving illegal immigrants (most of whom are military-aged men) are breaking out across the state. These individuals are not assimilating, they are disrupting, demanding, and waving foreign flags while burning ours on American soil. As California spirals, it's no surprise that federal intervention has become necessary. President Trump has stepped in where state "leadership" would not. This really isn't about politics, it's about preserving order, protecting citizens, and upholding the rule of law. We are a people who serve a God of justice, not disorder. What's happening is not compassionate, it's destabilizing. California deserves better, and America must wake up before this becomes the norm nationwide. God forbid. Let's talk about what's really going on in California and why prayer, truth, and resolve are crucial right now.--https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOoqJuDPZk6H7VWSxgepSo3RWAJCtIGO9wrHmULH1iMgxSzkJ791_--Order CULTure: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/SLYWFXAB6479S

This is to be a self-sacrificing and love-filled leadership, just as Christ loved and sacrificed for His bride, the church, the body of believers.As we approach Father's Day, what more important message can a husband and father hear than to fully embrace his call to lead his family for God's glory? This doesn't just mean rearing his children but shepherding his wife as well.Joel Beeke, former president and now chancellor of Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary and longtime pastor of Heritage Reformed Congregation in Grand Rapids, Michigan, joins us this weekend to discuss his helpful new book, How to Lead Your Family: A Guide for Men Wanting to Be More.The notable framework that Dr. Beeke sets forth in the book is that Christian husbands and fathers share in a limited way Christ's three offices of prophet, priest, and king. Joel will explain how this should play out in the home, as the husband and father loves and leads his wife and children.There is much biblical and practical wisdom for husbands and fathers in this short 80-page book and we will tell you how you can order a copy for a donation of any amount to The Christian Worldview.The interview was conducted this week halfway across the world, where Joel is preaching in New Zealand and Australia.---------------------------------How to Lead Your Family by Joel BeekeFamily Worship Bible Guide by Joel Beeke

Pride Month is evil, and we must call it what it is. In this episode, we're discussing the spiritual implications of Pride Month, asking hard questions about what it represents—and how believers should respond. We're drawing the connection between pride, identity, and rebellion against God's design for human flourishing.Many Christians feel spiritually drained during this month, and we should. I'm challenging my listeners to love the LGBTQ+ community not with silence or compromise (and certainly not with support) but with truth—the truth that God offers forgiveness, transformation, and eternal life to all who repent and follow Christ.We must hate sin while praying for our enemies. Our culture desperately needs more holiness, conviction, and compassion rooted in the gospel, which is telling those around us the truth.—https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOoqBR_MWE2-fkYXYHCn80nZtEct4ixmRGrXZSrgIn5HP_tBc9Mcy

Send us a textGUEST: Mary Jane Wheaton, David's MomThe great preacher Charles Spurgeon said, “Never could it be possible for any man to estimate what He owes to a godly mother.”I heartily concur with that sentiment, as God blessed my Dad with a godly wife and my siblings and I with a godly mother. All of us have been presently and eternally impacted by our mother, Mary Jane Wheaton, who was brought to saving faith in Christ in her 20s, and by God's grace, has followed Him to today at age 91.It has been an annual tradition on The Christian Worldview to interview my Mom and Dad in May and June over Mother's Day and Father's Day weekends. It's always enriching to hear their perspective on matters of life and faith, as they both were Christ-followers and married for nearly 70 years. The Lord brought my Dad home to heaven in 2023 at the same age my mom is today.My mom will be our guest this weekend on this Mother's Day special program. She will recount how God saved her, who has influenced her, how society has changed its view of women, what a wife should pursue, and much more.God's Word describes in Proverbs 31 the character of an “excellent wife” and mother, which says in part:“Strength and dignity are her clothing, And she smiles at the future.She opens her mouth in wisdom, And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.She looks well to the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.Her children rise up and bless her; Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:“Many daughters have done nobly, But you excel them all.”Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.”May women listening today be encouraged to pursue God's design for a woman, wife, and mother. And may young men be looking for this kind of woman to marry and may married men be cultivating this character in their wives.

Today, we're discussing the recent controversy surrounding Shiloh Hendrix, who called a black child a racial slur at a playground instead of taking the concern to the child's parents. This behavior is not only unacceptable—it's unchristian. As followers of Christ, we are called to be above reproach (1 Timothy 3:2), especially when dealing with the next generation. God will not judge us by our skin color, so why are we so quick to judge others by theirs? We can simultaneously be aware of the statistics about certain cultures within particular races, and realize that this is not how we handle those problems. We'll explore the biblical approach to conflict resolution. When there's a problem with a child's behavior, the godly route is to speak directly with their parents—not to attack the child. Christians must hold one another accountable. --https://policecoffee.com/collections/coffee

Send us a textGUEST: SCOTT ANIOL, Executive VP and Editor-in-Chief G3 MinistriesThe highest calling for Christians is to pursue holiness.Scripture says this definitively, “As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance, but like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” (1 Peter 1:14-16).What hinders the pursuit of holiness, defined as Christ-likeness, is the opposite—worldliness. Worldliness is defined in Scripture as the sinful lusts and pride which the world around us relentlessly promotes:“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world” (1 John 2:16).Here's what WORLDLINESS tells us: >> If it feels good, do it. >> If it looks good, get it. >> If it elevates me, go for it.Not surprisingly, the fallen world ruled by Satan presents endless ways to draw us off the path of holiness and down the dead end of worldliness. And most problematic, there's something inside us that is drawn to what the sinful world offers. It's enjoyable. It causes us to laugh. It makes us feel “in.” It boosts our view of self. And it's really not going to affect me, right?Scott Aniol, Executive Vice President and Editor-in-Chief of G3 Ministries and Professor of Pastoral Theology at Grace Bible Theological Seminary, joins us this weekend on The Christian Worldview to discuss worldliness and how to identify and overcome it.We hope you find the conversation edifying for your Christian life.

I also hope Catholics choose a biblical pope next time, not one more interested in pleasing the world than honoring the Word.We'll talk about the things he did right—his care for the poor and moments of humility. But we'll also look at the dangerous things he got wrong:Promoting open borders that have devastated countries and erased traditionSaying all religions worship the same God (they don't)Claiming the human heart is good (the Bible says it's deceitful above all things)Ignoring original sin and the fallen nature of manThis is a respectful but honest take on a figure who meant a lot to many—but who, like all of us, needed Christ above all.--https://noblegoldinvestments.com/

All of Scripture exalts Him.“Him” being Jesus Christ, the God-man who lived among us, was crucified by those He created, miraculously rose from the grave, and then ascended alive into heaven.This is way beyond the “greatest story ever told”. Rather, Jesus Christ is the greatest One who ever lived. His crucifixion, burial, resurrection is the greatest, most significant event in human history.Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me” (John 14:6).Scripture also says, “For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony given at the proper time” (1 Timothy 2:5).This Easter weekend, we're going to talk about “the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all”. We'll examine the most detailed Old Testament prophecy about Him in Isaiah 53 and see how it was precisely fulfilled. We'll also hear some of the most profound hymns about Christ's sacrificial death for man.We hope your Easter is made more meaningful as you listen to this special edition of The Christian Worldview.--------------------Related Resources:Why Would Anyone Follow Jesus?

The Renaissance of Academic ApologeticsOver the past 40 years, we’ve witnessed a remarkable resurgence in academic apologetics. Influential philosophers like Alvin Plantinga and William Lane Craig have made significant strides in defending Christian theism through rigorous analytical philosophy. This renaissance is not just about arguments; it’s about training the next generation of apologists. Institutions like the Society for Christian Philosophers and various seminaries are equipping students with the tools they need to engage thoughtfully with contemporary challenges to the faith. Cultural Apologetics: A New ApproachTraditional apologetics has focused on arguments for and against Christianity, but we must also consider the cultural landscape. Cultural apologetics seeks to establish a Christian voice within society, addressing the moral and intellectual climate that often hinders people from considering the Christian message. As Paul Hume articulates, it’s about making Christianity not just true but also satisfying. This approach is essential for reaching a generation that is increasingly skeptical and disengaged. The Role of Apologetics in Spiritual FormationApologetics should not be an isolated discipline; it must be integrated into the fabric of Christian life. Families, churches, and educational institutions should prioritize teaching apologetics as part of spiritual formation and evangelism. This means actively engaging with opposing worldviews and fostering a culture of inquiry and defense of the faith. By doing so, we prepare ourselves and our communities to articulate the hope we have in Christ. As we navigate the complexities of our world, it’s crucial to remember that the future of apologetics is ultimately in God’s hands. We are called to work diligently and smartly, making the case for our faith compellingly and lovingly.

Send us a textGUEST: SETH GRUBER, Executive Producer, The 1916 ProjectIt's been said that “Ideas have consequences and bad ideas have victims.”Ideas are the causes of actions in the world, for better or for worse. And the Christian should know from God's Word that sinful ideas come from unregenerate minds. Romans 8 says, “the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, and those who are in the flesh cannot please God” (Romans 8:7-8).The depravity and death we see all around us in our culture, particularly millions of aborted babies, all manner of sexual and gender perversion, and suicide and euthanasia, are the direct result of ideas from minds that hate God and His truth and design.As shown in a new documentary film titled The 1916 Project by executive producer Seth Gruber, the wicked lineage of this God-forsaking worldview in America is built block by block upon well-known names like evolutionist Charles Darwin, abortionist Margaret Sanger, and pervert Alfred Kinsey and many other lesser known influencers like Thomas Malthus, Francis Galton, Havelock Ellis, and Emma Goldman.Gruber reveals how these men and women are the reason why abortion today is seen as “My body, my choice,” “love is love,” “gender is fluid,” and “children need to explore their sexuality at the youngest ages.”Seth Gruber joins us today on The Christian Worldview to discuss Margaret Sanger and the History of the Death and Depravity Revolution in light of The 1916 Project documentary film.-------------------------------The 1916 Project DVD

Send us a textCALIFORNIA UPDATE:I mentioned on last week's program that I would tell you more about our recent trip to Southern California, where our family received the “Family of the Year” award by the U.S. Tennis Association. In the opening segment of the program, I will recount some of the highlights, including a Christian Worldview Partner luncheon at Grace Community Church in Los Angeles, along with visits to KKLA 99.5 FM (who broadcasts The Christian Worldview each Saturday at 8am) and Living Waters to see Ray Comfort and Co.------------------------Later in the program, we will discuss the issue of judges ruling against President Trump's executive orders. In the first 100 days of the Trump administration, Democrats have been staggering as Trump and his team execute a kind of blitzkrieg against liberal policies. But it was inevitable that the left would fight back and now their strategy is apparent—use leftist judges appointed by Obama and Biden to stymie Trump's orders.But do unelected judges really have the authority to overturn the orders of a nationally-elected president? Has Trump overstepped presidential authority when it comes to such things as cutting government spending and deporting those who entered our country illegally, including a Columbia graduate student who calls for the destruction of Israel?Daniel Schmid, a constitutional attorney and Associate Vice President of Legal Affairs for Liberty Counsel, an international nonprofit, litigation, education, and policy organization dedicated to advancing religious freedom, the sanctity of life, and the family, will join us this weekend on The Christian Worldview to discuss the showdown between the Trump administration and the third branch of government.----------------------->> Short highlight video from Ray Comfort

Mary welcomes back apologist J. Warner Wallace with the release of his latest book, "Case Files: Murder and Meaning".  He and his son Jimmy have written a graphic novel for young adults that is a feast for the eyes, yet explores the deeper questions that shape our lives. J. Warner Wallace is a Dateline featured cold-case homicide detective, popular national speaker and best-selling author. He continues to consult on cold-case investigations while serving as a Senior Fellow at the Colson Center for Christian Worldview. How does this unique format, in the fiction genre, lend itself to the message of the gospel? We'll hear from the "Evidence Whisperer" himself about how it came about, who illustrated it, and will there be a sequel? Then we discuss evangelism and the close link to apologetics and the importance of having an evidence-based faith. Looking back at 10+ years since "Cold Case Christianity" was released, we look at the basics of knowing what we know and why it is so important to provide proof of the hope that is in us. A great hour with one of the best apologists of our day.  His books can be found here.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A
