Pride Month Exposed: Manipulation or Celebration of Human Nature? Unpack the hidden motives behind Pride Month, questioning whether it uplifts or exploits humanity's basest instincts. Lenny is joined by commentator Bethel McGrew when they trace the movement's roots from Stonewall to today's corporate-backed celebrations, exploring how identity politics overshadows virtue, reason, and beauty. Their discussion dives into the mental health challenges within the LGBTQ+ community and the Christian perspective on navigating these cultural shifts with moral integrity.

 This Father's Day, discover the true calling of parenthood: raising adults, not just kids. God calls us to build character over comfort, preparing children for purpose, not ease. There are no perfect parents—only consistent ones. Through love, discipline, and example, we shape future leaders. Let's commit to parenting with intention, consistency, and a heart set on legacy.Bottom Line: You don't have to be a perfect parent—just a consistent one, focused on building character over comfort.Want to hear more sermons? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/sermonsWant to support the ministry? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/give-nowWant to plan your visit? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/planyourvisit

In this episode of the A&F podcast we have a quick catch up then throw ourselves into the murky world of adoption and ethics. We may have fallen at the first hurdle but we are speaking as adoptive parents and we look specifically a the balance of morals and ethics within this world. We're not high minded lads so it's pretty rudimentary but we consider some of the challenged and consider the role of pragmatism. The court case we mention can be found here.  As always if you've experience of adoption, fostering or special guardianship from any perspective personal or professional and would like share that on the podcast please get in touch through the Facebook page, BlueSky or email us at AandFpodcast@gmail.com   Listen/subscribe on iTunes here Spotify here

Your twenties are supposed to be “the best years of your life,” right? But no one tells you how confusing, overwhelming, and straight-up weird they can be. There are things we only learn the hard way, sometimes after a few missteps, sometimes after a full-on identity crisis in a grocery store parking lot.

My LIVE Conversation with Mormons In this captivating doorstep conversation, Lenny lovingly challenges Mormon missionaries on the Book of Mormon's credibility, pointing out its internal contradictions and lack of evidence. With a winsome tone, he engages LDS theology and shares the transformative power of the true Gospel. Don't miss this powerful moment!

 The Church doesn't need more passion—it needs more devotion. Pastor Steve Smothermon Jr. unpacks the difference between emotional zeal and lasting commitment. Passion without direction can be dangerous, but true devotion births godly passion. Passion may start the race, but only devotion finishes it. God is calling His people to move past momentary feelings and into faithful obedience.Bottom Line:Passion starts, but devotion sustains.

The mics pop like champagne as we usher Miami OG Lea Black back for part 2 in Dallas. What follows is a glitter cannon of gossip, gratitude, and girdle-tight life lessons—all in under an hour. Glitter vs. Grit Lea opens her designer diary: she once slid to the side so “drop-dead gorgeous” Joanna Krupa could shine, and even loaned baubles to castmates “starring in rented houses and leased Jaguars.” She applauds Bethenny Frankel's rag-to-Skinnygirl rise while roasting fame junkies who'll chase a camera “to the opening of an envelope.” Hollywood Stories & Humble Queens Grab your autograph book. Lea bumps into Faye Dunaway disguised in Juicy Couture, the boys accept a curbside first edition from Dyan Cannon, and Pol' watches Zoë Saldana crawl on the boutique floor to play with puppy SnowWhite90210. Patrik fires back: mistaking Courtney Love for a “homeless lady,” then auctioning Pamela Anderson's lap for $10 K at a gala. The moral, via icons Betty White and Anna Nicole Smith: class never goes out of style. Skincare Royalty & the Chump Army We chat about Lea Black Beauty serums, masks, and miracle oil and Pol' confesses he ditched Obagi for Lea Black Beauty. Cosmic Signs & Coffee Grounds Pol's 2nd half of Lea's Armenian coffee divination crowns Lea “queen of limitless lanes.” Two new ventures shimmer in the grinds: an affordable-housing empire for son RJ and a hush-hush jewelry play. The trio compare destiny detours—from a Phuket flight missed before the 2004 tsunami to pilots grounding planes on “feng-shui feelings.” Hot Topics & Runway Rundown Headlines fly: Gene Hackman's carbon-monoxide tragedy prompts a detector PSA. Jeff Bezos plans to rocket Lauren Sanchez, Gayle King, and Katy Perry into orbit—Lea yells “Prenup, please!”Fashion time: Pol' torches the RHOM reunion looks—Lisa Hochstein's iridescent foil (“Forever 21 clearance”), Larsa Pippen's emerald ruche, and Alexia's metallic mini—branding the set “Star-Wars prom.” By contrast, Greg Lotus's portrait of Lea in a bias-cut ivory gown is christened “Rich-Bitch Perfection.” Money, Morals & Mega-Billions Lea slams corporate layoff kings, privatized-FAA chaos, and royal PR spin. Her mantra: “Show me where you spend your money, time, and influence, and I'll show your values.” Love, Security & Limitless Hustle Coffee grounds confirm attorney/philanthropist Roy Black is Lea's steady North Star—“that box is forever checked.” With home secure, she juggles a dozen gigs and yearns for five more. Patrik crowns her the “Ozempic of people—one shot and your goals slim to what matters.” Lea's final words: “I feel naked—inside and out—but drape me in couture and 60 carats, darling!” This is another Hurrdat Media Production.

We talk a bit more about David Hume's An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals (1751), and add some parts of A Treatise of Human Nature (1739): sec. 3 "Of the Influencing Motives of the Will" within the third part of Book II, "Of the Passions," and the first two sections of Book III, "Of Morals." Can reason by itself motivate moral action? Hume says no: All ethical reasons must point ultimately to sentiments, which we can generalize about, but which are epistemically basic.

Why We're ALL Born Sinners — And How Jesus Saves Us! Discover the Christian teaching of original sin, that every baby is born with a sinful nature, which separates us from God. This video explores how in Adam we inherit a corrupted human nature, one that pulls us towards rebellion. But through the Second Adam—Jesus—we have the gift of justification, restoring our relationship with God. Learn practical ways to avoid sin by following Christ's model of grace. We'll unpack the theology behind original sin, its impact on humanity, and how grace transforms lives. Perfect for Christians seeking to deepen their faith and live a holy life, inspired by Jesus's example.

God didn't call Abram to comfort—He called him out. Leaving his father's house wasn't just a relocation; it was a declaration of obedience. Like Abram, we're invited to step into the unknown, not with all the answers, but with faith in the One who leads. Comfort can keep us settled, but obedience sets us in motion. The future God has for us begins where comfort ends.Bottom Line:Comfort settles us, but obedience sends us.WANT TO LISTEN TO THE WHOLE SERMON? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/sermonsWant to hear more sermons? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/sermonsWant to support the ministry? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/give-nowWant to plan your visit? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/planyourvisit

Send us a textI saved the best for last—live Q&A from my Health as F*ck book club and all questions lead to this: How the HELL do I actually get skinny?Meal prep doesn't have to be a chore and the food isn't icky. I use Sundays—my rest day—to throw on a rom-com, chop some veggies, portion things out, and call it good. It's low effort and keeps the rest of the week easy (4-day-old veggies are way better than crusty, cold pizza from the night before. Trust me).But it's not all rigid meals; the 80/20 rule keeps me sane. Most days I'm eating what I prepped. The rest? I go with what feels good—coffee treats, dinners out, full-on indulgence. It all fits.Water matters, but perfection doesn't. Tap is fine (stop buying overpriced bottled water). Add lemon, fruit, or flavor powder if it helps. Bribe yourself however you can because you need a lot of it!Movement adds up. Walks, stretches, a few squats while the kettle boils—none of it is wasted. The more you move, the better you feel. Even a little.Future you is your best motivator. When you're dragging, picture her looking back. She'll be glad you did something, even if it's just five minutes (and hey, squeeze in a reward for you NOW too).This is a big one but I'll let you in on a secret: veggies aren't punishment. Roast them, sauce them, or mix them into stuff you like. Pre-chopped is a win, not a weakness. Make it taste good or keep it simple.Food doesn't need a moral label. Baked goods aren't bad. Spinach doesn't make you superior. Eat what serves you—sometimes that's nutrients, sometimes you just need to eat. Change sticks when it's small.

The Shocking Truth About Finding Joy When the World Hates You Jesus promised that the world would hate His followers, yet He also commanded us to have joy. How can we experience joy in a world that often opposes our beliefs? This podcast delves into the paradoxical nature of Christian joy, showing how it flourishes even in adversity. Through scriptural teachings, you'll learn that joy is not dependent on circumstances but on our relationship with God. Embrace the truth that suffering can be a catalyst for joy and spiritual growth, and discover practical ways to cultivate this joy in your daily life.

Feeling overwhelmed is not a reason to overreact or act in a way that isn't in line with your core values. If you don't know what to do, it's okay to say "I don't know what to do," and perhaps all the reason to postpone doing anything until you have more clarity. With enough time, your core principles and moral compass help you find true north, the middle path, and peace with whatever decision you make.

There is a word that has been on my mind a lot lately when it comes to leadership - quality. It's a word that gets tossed around so flippantly that it has practically lost all meaning. You've heard it in strategy decks, seen it on mission statements, maybe even mumbled it yourself after a decent cup of coffee, but what is quality, really? Could you define it, and if you could, would your definition match anyone else's?Listen in as I spend a little bit of time poking at that question, not in a clean, tidy, here's-your-five-step-framework kind of way but more like walking through fog with a flashlight. The word quality has been chewing on my brain, and I'm pulling in Robert M. Pirsig's books that have really transformed how I think about this - Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and Lila.Quality isn't just a rating or a checklist. It's not even fully definable. It's a feeling, something between the subject and the object. You sense it in a perfectly run meeting or in a Slack thread that just clicks. You also sense it when something's off and you can't quite put your finger on why.As accidental leaders, we're often handed static systems - processes, org charts, old habits, but what if your edge is actually in the change, the creativity, the “what if we tried this instead?” That's what I'm exploring today - not necessarily answers but better questions.If you have read all the books and sat through all the webinars and you're still wondering what's missing, then this might be the episode for you, but fair warning: it might raise more questions than it answers, but, again, maybe that's the point!Time Stamps:[1:20] - The word quality is widely used yet rarely defined in a meaningful, shared way.[4:09] - Quality is the intuitive harmony between subject and object, easier felt than defined or explained.[6:57] - True leadership comes from balancing structure with creativity.[9:17] - Quality can't be clearly defined, only sensed and embodied through care, presence, and intentionality.[12:44] - Recognize and pursue what feels high-quality to you; that's how accidental leaders grow into real ones.[15:18] - Quality ultimately is not a finish line; it's the compass guiding leadership, intuition, and meaningful decisions.[17:01] - Persig's struggle to define quality reveals its depth and its power to transform your leadership!Resources:The Accidental Leader - Websiteyournarketing.cobo@yourmarketingco.comBo McDonald on LinkedInRobert M.

On David Hume's An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals (1751). What is morality, and how can we know it? Hume claims that we simply find ourselves with sentiments morally approving and disapproving of various things. Characterizing these post hoc, we can say that in general we approve of what brings utility, and this explains the existence of most laws and mores. These may vary by culture because conditions change the utility calculation in different environments. Get more at partiallyexaminedlife.com.

In Part 1, Lenny shares simple, effective ways to engage in spiritual discussions, teaching you how to connect with skeptics, ask thought-provoking questions, and present biblical truths with clarity and kindness. In Part 2, watch Lenny put these techniques into practice in a live Q&A, answering real student questions. This video equips you to share Jesus confidently in any setting. Watch now, share with friends, and get ready to tackle doubts with boldness and love.

 Gratitude honors where we've been, but vision calls us to where we're going. We remember the past, not to idolize it, but to build upon it. Jesus didn't say, “I have built,” but “I will build my church”—a promise of forward motion. When we cling too tightly to what was, we risk missing what God is doing now. We are being called into a season of bold faith, fresh purpose, and Spirit-led growth—where the church rises not just in memory of what was, but in pursuit of what's yet to come.Bottom Line:We honor the past, but we build the future God is calling us into.Want to hear more sermons? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/sermonsWant to support the ministry? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/give-nowWant to plan your visit? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/planyourvisit

This week on Blurry Hysteria, we're pulling rabbits out of uncomfortable hats!First up, the U.S. government is waving its moral wand again with a proposed federal bill to standardize obscenity laws—which sounds like code for “bye-bye porn, hello legal chaos.” Is this a noble crusade to clean up the internet, or just the 500th reboot of Footloose, but with more pixels and fewer dance numbers? Either way, we're not sure if we should be horrified or just... slightly bored.Then, we conjure up the magical tale of The Magic Circle's first female member, who fooled the boys' club by disguising herself as a man in the early 1900s. Spoiler alert: she was better at sleight of hand and mustache application than any of them. Gender-bending misdirection? Now that's a trick worth applauding.Tune in for a magical and moderately NSFW episode where illusion meets institution, and nothing is quite what it seems!Links & Resources

Depression has arrived. In this week's episode, we discuss the first half of season two of the Last of Us (eps.1-4). After a brief recap, we discuss who is truly right between Joel, Ellie, and the much hated Abby. Then, we dive into the complex moral boundaries that exist within an apocalypse while also getting into how Ellie is faring as the new, sole lead of the show. We certainly went out swinging with this one!

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.

Rachel and Leah, burdened by barrenness, let impatience drive their decisions—creating rivalry, pain, and division that echoed through generations. In contrast, Rebekah, though also flawed, leaned into God's promise and played a bold role in guiding Jacob toward the blessing God had already destined for him. These stories reveal a powerful truth: God uses mothers not because they always get it right, but because He weaves purpose through their persistence, their pain, and their faith.Bottom Line: God doesn't wait for perfect mothers—He uses faithful ones.WANT TO LISTEN TO THE WHOLE SERMON? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/sermonsWant to hear more sermons? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/sermonsWant to support the ministry? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/give-nowWant to plan your visit? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/planyourvisit

Can the Gospel Win Back Jewish Hearts? A Bold Vision Brian J. Crawford shares a hopeful vision for Jewish evangelism. Dive into the seismic shift in Jewish identity after the Second Temple's fall. From priestly rituals to rabbinical wisdom, explore how the Talmud reshaped Jewish thought and why figures like Maimonides still spark debate today. With Lenny Esposito, they discuss how the gospel could spark renewed interest among Jews. Watch this inspiring talk!

Why It Matters: Jacob's family was shaped by deep division between his wives, Leah and Rachel. Though God had a purpose for the whole family, Jacob's love for Rachel and neglect of Leah created a cycle of competition, insecurity, and pain. Their children inherited that tension—brothers divided not just by personality, but by the favoritism and rivalry rooted in their mothers' relationship.Blended families are not new, and Scripture doesn't hide their complexity. But God calls us to something higher: unity, compassion, and fairness. When we show favoritism—like Jacob did—it doesn't just affect one child; it wounds the whole family. Hearts break, relationships fracture, and peace is lost.Bottom Line: Blended families don't need perfection—they need patience.WANT TO LISTEN TO THE WHOLE SERMON? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/sermonsWant to hear more sermons? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/sermonsWant to support the ministry? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/give-nowWant to plan your visit? https://www.experiencechurch.tv/planyourvisit

In today's episode of the Truth Wanted, ObjectivelyDan and Jim Barrows jump into social media to separate the art from the artist, and are careful not to be echo chambers as they float through space to trigger a speciation event.James in NY has some thoughts about how social media can help with deconstruction. The process of deconstruction is not just one time and happens repeatedly. Jim mentions some YouTube programs that not only help him but also are entertaining. This can also be helpful when it is hard to leave some things behind, Dan describes. What kinds of things can be difficult to accept as true?Bagel in Canada wants to talk about separating the art from the artist and presents an example of a musician who did something awful yet still produces a great song. How can you separate the revenue stream from the artist? The thing that makes a person a moral monster is not necessarily their art. Knowing everything about every celebrity ever can give us some problems to wrestle with. How can you tell when the actual art is the problem? What if the cameraman of a series that you love comes out as a Nazi? Even bad people say and do good things on occasion. We can rephrase this as separating the science from the scientist.Caleb in WY wants to figure out how to not be an echo chamber and take the proper approach to find what is true. Dan draws off his experience to explain how helpful it is to use five different news sources for every story you find. Information is misreported on all sides and you must take an active attempt at absorbing information. Jim will surf different sites in incognito mode so he is not recognized. This will help prevent the information being tailored to you. The same article will have different headlines depending on the audience.  The hosts share other helpful tips: Never share an article on social media that you have not read yourself, paid subscriptions will generally give you better quality information, and look for news sources that expose the blind spots on the right and left. Dan in Canada has a thought about the commercialization of space travel and asks if people will have a speciation event. Jim confirms that when the environment changes, we will definitely see this take place, and Dan explains that evolution does not just stop. If you stay in space long enough, you can't return because of how it affects the body. How do you think humans will change if we were to colonize Mars?Kelley Laughlin, joins us to close out the show. We want the truth of the week: Name something that people worry about too much. Jim reminds us that all hardware and software suck. People make mistakes.

Today's podcast starts with our masterful host, Mike Slater, monologuing at-length about modern America and its MANY moral failings. How did we all allow things to get this cruddy and how can we pitch in to make things better on a street-level?Following the opener, two great guests (Joel Pollak & Jim Jordan) stop by to talk about Trump 2.0's first 100 days in office and gab about what we should all expect to see from this administration in the near-future!

PARENTAL DISCRETION ADVISED.  As parents, we have the God-given dominion to influence and steer our children's culture. Dr. Jonny gives many examples just over the past week where the world's culture has exposed our children to vile and damaging propaganda. It is time for parents to rise up and become what they were created to be and prejudiciously defend their children and moral truth.

This week, I'm joined by Kaleb Fossum.
