This is one of those conversations that hits close to home.Katy Faust joins me to talk about the Greater Than Campaign and why putting children first matters now more than ever. We talk about what's happening in our culture, the confusion creeping into the church, and how quickly truth is being replaced with whatever feels right in the moment.At the end of the day, this isn't just about politics. It's about our kids. It's about whether we're willing to stand up, know what we believe, and lead our families in a culture that's losing its way.Parents, this is your wake up call.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

Oregon is facing lawlessness, failing schools, sanctuary policies, and leadership that seems determined to push the state further into chaos. Today Heidi is joined by grassroots activist and Oregon gubernatorial candidate Dave Medina to talk about the spiritual battle behind politics and why Christians must stop sitting on the sidelines.

Before diving into your questions, I take a few minutes to talk about what's happening in Iran and why Christians need to look at it through the lens of Scripture, history, and plain old common sense. Then it's Fan Mail Friday, and I'm answering your questions about the Epstein files, protecting our kids, homeschooling, and raising children who will stand firm in their faith in a culture that seems determined to lose its mind.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

Across the country, students are walking out of class to protest ICE and immigration enforcement but the real issue isn't free speech. The bigger question is why taxpayer-funded schools are becoming staging grounds for political activism.Today I'm talking about what these walkouts reveal about the state of public education, who's influencing our kids, and why parents need to start paying attention. If education isn't neutral—and it isn't—then we need to be asking who is shaping the worldview of the next generation.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

We're living in an age of information overload—and confusion. In this episode, Frank Turek joins me for an honest conversation about the growing lack of discernment among Christians, the rise of conspiracy culture online, and why truth still matters in a world full of noise. We talk about the aftermath of Charlie Kirk's murder, the danger of slander and speculation in the church, and the spiritual warfare behind lies, gossip, and division. We also discuss what's happening in the Middle East, the importance of thinking biblically about government and culture, and why Christians must stay grounded in God's Word in chaotic times.This is a timely conversation about truth, discernment, and the responsibility believers have to stand firm in a culture that's losing its grip on both.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and semaglutide are everywhere right now and so is the fear surrounding them. Are they dangerous? Are they a breakthrough? And why is the internet so divided?Today I'm joined by Drs. Mark and Michele Sherwood from the Functional Medical Institute to talk honestly about what GLP-1s actually do, who they're designed to help, and why so much of the conversation online is driven by hype and fear instead of facts.We also dive into ketones, blood sugar and mood swings in kids, snoring and sleep apnea, hormones for men in their 40s, cold plunges and saunas, and why so many people are struggling with anxiety right now. Most importantly, we talk about how to become “hope dealers” in a culture that profits from fear.If you're looking for clear thinking, practical health wisdom, and encouragement in a noisy world, this episode is for you.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

Today we're talking about grief, loss, and the power of forgiveness.Gary and Mary Malachowski share the story of their daughter Hannah, who was killed in a tragic accident just days before Christmas. In the middle of unimaginable heartbreak, Gary made a choice that would shape the rest of their healing journey—he chose to forgive.This is a tender conversation about suffering, marriage, faith, and the God who meets us in the darkest places. If you're grieving—or walking alongside someone who is—I pray this episode reminds you that you are not alone.
I'm back from Australia—and what I saw both inspired and sobered me.On the Gospel Reset tour with Ken Ham and Barry Wilmore, I witnessed a beautiful nation that has quietly surrendered freedoms through passivity. Cameras everywhere. Speech limitations. Christian schools using secular curriculum.It was a powerful reminder: freedom is fragile—and the reset begins in Genesis.Let's talk about why this matters for your family and how we stand boldly at the intersection of faith and culture.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

This episode originally aired on October 22, and I'm bringing it back because this is a conversation we simply cannot ignore.As explicit “romance” fiction and erotic content continue to become normalized—especially among women—it's important that we talk honestly about what it's doing to our hearts and our marriages.In this powerful and vulnerable conversation, Elise Orozco shares how so-called “romance” fiction slowly drew her in, how it impacted her marriage and her walk with the Lord, and how God led her to freedom.This isn't about shame. It's about guarding our hearts and remembering that God's design for intimacy is protective, beautiful, and life-giving.If you care about strengthening your marriage and living in freedom, don't skip this one.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

Pastor and Colorado State Rep Scott Bottoms is running for Governor of Colorado, and he's making the case for why Christians can't sit out the political arena anymore. We talk about the pressure on pastors to stay silent, the “Christian nationalism” debate, and why policy is shaping the future of our kids in real time—from grooming and parental rights to trafficking and corruption.

It's Fan Mail Friday, and you guys brought the questions. We're talking about what it looks like to raise outspoken Christian young adults without living in fear, how to help a perfectionistic child learn rest in Jesus, and what to do when homeschooling is exhausting and the relationship is taking a hit. We'll also hit hypocrisy in the church, navigating marriage and parenting tension, handling conflict with Christian leaders without sliding into gossip, and even what to do when one child dominates the family conversation. God's Word isn't silent on any of this—and it's still the anchor we need right now.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

Are we in the middle of a teen mental health crisis—and is technology fueling it? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with clinical psychologist Johan D'Souza to unpack the dramatic rise in anxiety, depression, and suicidality since 2010 and what smartphones are doing to the developing brain. We talk honestly about dopamine, screen addiction, weak boundaries, strong leadership in the home, and what parents can do right now—even if a phone is already in their child's hand. This isn't about panic; it's about courage, clarity, and raising kids who can flourish in a distracted world.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

In this special Fan Mail Friday re-run, originally recorded during our 36th-anniversary trip to Kona, Jay and I dive into your candid questions about marriage—intimacy after babies, navigating NFP, dating on a budget, perimenopause and HRT, staying close in busy seasons, and why Christ at the center changes everything.

Today we're talking about a quiet power grab that most Americans won't see until it's too late: states moving to weaken—or outright override—your locally elected sheriff. Sheriffs answer to you, the voters, and that's exactly why they're being targeted.I'm joined by Pierce County Sheriff Keith Swank to break down Washington's Senate Bill 5974 and what it would really do: give unelected state bodies the power to disqualify, decertify, and effectively remove sheriffs the people chose. This isn't about “standards.” It's about who holds authority—citizens, or bureaucrats.Also—quick update from Olympia: we recently showed up to push back on a major homeschool regulation bill, and by God's grace, it was stopped in committee. Freedom isn't free, and God's people have to show up.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

In every generation, God raises up shepherds who are willing to speak the truth—even when it costs them. In this Shepherds in the Storm episode, I'm joined by my friend Pastor Phil Hopper, lead pastor of Abundant Life Church, to talk about why the church was never meant to be silent.

For a long time, we trusted our public libraries to be safe, neutral places for families and kids. But that's just not true anymore. In this episode, I talk honestly about how taxpayer-funded libraries have shifted from simply offering books to actively promoting ideology—and why so many parents feel dismissed or even silenced when they raise concerns. I'll share how we got here, why the American Library Association matters, and what everyday moms and dads can actually do about it—from showing up locally to building better alternatives that protect kids and respect families.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

We're living in a moment where a teenager with a phone can shape theology faster than a pastor with a Bible—and the result is confusion, compromise, and a “feel-good” faith that can't save. In this eye-opening conversation, Mike Winger joins me to expose what's really driving digital discipleship, why “almost right” theology spreads so fast, and what parents, pastors, and leaders can do right now to anchor the next generation in Scripture—before the algorithm does.

The church was never meant to sit this one out. Today, Dr. Corey Miller joins me for a bold conversation about immigration, ICE, and the growing courage crisis inside the church.
