Today we're talking about Target's pride clothing line again since news of the company's collaboration with a satanist broke. We take a look at the controversial items in the collaboration and what the artist has said about satanism and Satan. One of those messages is that "Satan respects pronouns." We explain why he's right about this – Satan is the father of chaos and lies. We look at Target's response to the backlash to its pride line, which included pulling the collection from some stores, but the company's response didn't include an apology for selling the items to begin with. We explain why this doesn't mean we've won and give a call to action: We think everyone can give up Target for at least the month of June. We also discuss Chip and Joanna Gaines' silence on this Target ordeal and explain why it's so important for these famous Christians and longtime Target collaborators to speak out against what Target has been supporting. We also give a message to those expressing animosity over the Republican primary, namely due to Governor Ron DeSantis announcing his bid for president.

Today we're joined by Peter Schweizer, American political researcher and author of many books including "Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win," to talk about the U.S. government's corruption surrounding China. For a long time, global elites have told us that the U.S. merging closer with China is a good thing, but that's been proven to be categorically wrong. This merging has only made those same elites richer, and they continue to do things like help build the Chinese military. We discuss the Biden family's ties to China and why they're so important (and often misrepresented as less drastic than they really are). The truth is that every single deal the Biden family made with China was with an individual with deep ties to the CCP's spy apparatus. We talk about what we're really giving up when we do business with China and cover TikTok, the NBA, and college campus corruption as well. Then, we look at how China pushes progressive policies in the U.S. to weakens us, while not allowing those same policies in its own country. What can we do to combat this ourselves, and is there hope from any entity of government?

Today we're joined by Shawna Holman, founder of A Little Less Toxic, to discuss her story of learning to build a less toxic life and share tips on how we can take steps in the same direction. Shawna shares her story of struggling through illness and endless antibiotic treatments, only to find that lifestyle changes would ultimately help heal her body. We discuss Shawna's approach to both simplifying your life and also making your home less toxic, even if it starts with eliminating just one toxic cleaning product. We talk about the "crunchy" movement and why the "all or nothing" mentality can overwhelm rather than help. We also discuss the balance of modern medicine – while we're overprescribing and overmedicating, modern medicine is saving lives. How do we find a good balance and correct answers to our health questions? Then, how toxic is birth control, and which methods are safer than others?

Today, we're talking about a movement within both the secular and Christian Right, which has been called the "trad" movement or, in some cases, the "Red Pill" movement. It perpetuates views that could easily be seen as hateful toward women. Many of the men in this movement complain about women and equate masculinity with physical fitness and ultra self-sufficiency. In some of these circles, these men emphasize the importance of finding a traditional, service-oriented, submissive wife. But it's not just men. Twitter and TikTok are littered with "trad" women complaining about feminism and claiming to be the antidote to it as "trad" wives while simultaneously representing some of the worst forms of feminism themselves: being loudmouthed, using foul language, and showing off their bodies in a way that is by no means traditional. We talk about why this is not a biblical view of women and why this actually perpetuates hate toward them. We take another look at those in the Christian patriarchy crowd who think only men should be fighting the political battles and who appear to have an issue with the very nature of this podcast. We give our message to them. Then, we share a tribute to Tim Keller, who passed away last week and left a great legacy.

Today we're talking about popular Christian figures Lauren Daigle and Chris Pratt, who both separately found themselves in the news recently. In an interview promoting her new album, Lauren Daigle was asked what she thought of her state's abortion laws. Her response was that she didn't know and couldn't comment on it. This isn't the first time she's chosen not to address hot-button cultural issues. We discuss the ongoing trend of Christians believing that God is too harsh and mean and that we need to downplay it by playing dumb or refusing to learn what the Bible actually says. This essentially just creates an excuse for Christians to be ignorant about what the Bible actually says. On the other hand, Chris Pratt was asked about his faith during a movie premiere, and his answer is shockingly encouraging coming from a mainstream celebrity. Then, Biden recently claimed that white supremacy is the greatest threat to our nation. We explain why this is not only untrue, but also shameless pandering. We take a look at a story of a BLM activist who accused a white student of hateful behavior, subsequently getting her publicly shamed and practically expelled. The problem? There is no proof that it actually happened. We discuss who is actually in power here and why it matters so much. --- Timecodes: (00:40) Intro (02:28) Allie's dream (07:58) Lauren Daigle's comments on abortion (23:32) Chris Pratt on Christianity (34:22) Biden's comments on white supremacy (46:55) BLM activist false accusation --- Today's Sponsors: Naturally It's Clean — visit https://naturallyitsclean.com/allie and use promo code "ALLIE" to receive 15% off your order.

Today we're talking about the crisis at the border after Title 42 expired and immigration parole, as well as why Biden's immigration policies are so dangerous for our country. We look at the overcrowding issues at the border, as well as why we seem to see mostly grown men immigrate rather than women and children. Then we're joined by Barry Latzer, emeritus professor of criminal justice and author of "The Myth of Overpunishment: A Defense of the American Justice System and a Proposal to Reduce Incarceration While Protecting the Public," to discuss the failures of the justice system. We talk about the myth of over-punishment in the prison system, recidivism, and who is really paying the price for weak progressive policies on justice. We also look at the cases of Jordan Neely and Daniel Penny and why the system has failed both of them. We discuss some possible solutions, as well as why mental health services and psychiatric wards aren't actually that helpful to those suffering from mental illnesses, which creates further crime problems. --- Timecodes: (01:25) Intro (05:49) Title 42 expired (08:47) Overcrowding (14:32) Parole (19:23) Biden thinks things are going great (19:55) Sad stories & America first (25:10) Interview with Barry Latzer begins / incarceration numbers (31:40) Recidivism / Jordan Neely & Daniel Penny (43:50) Psychiatric care and crime (56:35) Migrant crisis (01:07:02) Legal immigration --- Today's Sponsors: A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!

Today we're talking to Holly Simon of Lawrence and Louise about a tragic pit bull attack that left her beloved cow Maple dead and the city corruption that unraveled following the incident. Holly shares the harrowing story of finding Maple dead in a lake and seeing the dogs run off, as well as the dog owners' refusal to take responsibility. Now, thanks to corrupt city prosecutor Rita Watkins, they continue to go unpunished, and one of their deadly dogs is still free to continue to terrorize their neighborhood. We take a look at why this is not an isolated incident when it comes to pit bulls and give you the opportunity to help this family seek justice not just for themselves, but for their community.  You can email the Fort Smith Board of Directors here: BoardofDirectors@FortSmithAR.gov You can email Carl Geffken directly here: CGeffken@FortSmithAR.gov --- Timecodes: (01:30) Intro (06:30) The attack (15:40) Confronting dog owners (28:50) Evidence (36:08) Dog owners' link to city prosecutor (39:42) Ongoing process / holding people accountable (43:25) Racial accusation (47:21) What now?

Today we're talking about the one-year anniversary of our Target boycott. Last year, Target announced it would start selling chest binders amid its "Pride Month" collection, which was a step too far. We look back at Target's decision and how dangerous and damaging it is to encourage gender confusion in this popular brand for young people. We look at Target's Corporate Equality Index rating and why the corporation cares more about being progressive than about pleasing its customers. This seems to be reflected in its stock downfall over the past year, though some have presented inflation as the reason for that. Then, we take a look at this year's Target Pride collection, which includes items for ... babies?! We discuss how this ideology is not loving in any way, but rather just a cruel affirmation that people are a mistake, and we share what message would actually be loving to these people. We also share an encouraging Mother's Day message for those who are not mothers, no matter the reason: Your highest calling according to Jesus is not in fact motherhood, but being obedient and glorifying to Christ, and that calling starts now. --- Timecodes: (00:47) Intro / trip to California (04:44) Mother's Day (15:43) Target boycott & effects of gender confusion (24:30) Boycotts (27:15) Other items from Target's 2022 Pride (30:17) Target's revenue & stock downfall (34:58) Pride baby books (38:26) Target 2023 Pride (49:50) New boycott --- Today's Sponsors: Carly Jean Los Angeles — use promo code 'ALLIEBASICS' to save 25% off your first order at CarlyJeanLosAngeles.com!

Today we have a very special Mother's Day guest – Allie's mom! She's here to talk about raising children from babies to adults. We start out with some advice for mothers of babies and toddlers: you can't do everything, and that's OK. We talk about the pressure to have it all together and how quickly it will all go by. We also discuss how raising children can be categorized into three six-year segments, and we go through some advice for each segment. We'll share some stories from childhood and give some advice to the mom who is scared to have kids. We hope this episode encourages all you moms and moms-to-be out there! --- Timecodes: (00:51) Interview begins (01:35) Advice to moms of kids ages 0-6 / you can't do everything (07:14) Time goes by quickly (12:18) Advice to moms of kids ages 6-12 (17:32) Sleepovers, friendships & bullying (22:59) Devices & social media (24:44) Advice to moms of kids ages 12-18 / curfews (39:26) Advice to moms of adults (41:12) Grandparents (43:55) Advice to the mom who is scared to have kids --- Today's Sponsors: Patriot Mobile — go to PatriotMobile.com/ALLIE or call 878-PATRIOT and use promo code 'ALLIE' to get free activation!

Today we're joined again by Dr. Nicholas Kardaras, psychologist and one of the country's foremost addiction and mental health experts, to discuss screen addiction and the dangers of screen time on our brains. We start off with some of the science of how screens affect our brains, hindering the development of our prefrontal cortex, and the social contagion aspect of social media with the rise of TikTok "ticks," trans anxiety, depression. Ultimately, Dr. Kardaras explains why what he calls "toxic psych metrics" are spiking. We also talk about the differences between television and tablets/phones and why screen time in the past had vastly less dramatic effects than screen time these days does.

Today we're joined by Dr. Nicholas Kardaras, psychologist and one of the country's foremost addiction and mental health experts, to discuss mass shootings, incel culture, and video game violence. We start off with an update on the Texas shooting that took place last weekend and the strange details about the shooter's online history that have come out (which are still being investigated). We discuss how incel culture began as a well-intentioned lonely hearts support group and morphed into an online breeding ground for angry people. We go through some of the ideologies espoused by mass shooters and talk about how search algorithms create a sense of egocentric narcissism, causing people to believe they're the center of their digital world. We argue that while it's worth talking about guns, mass shootings are rooted more in societal and psychological issues that need to be addressed. Then, we ask why these shootings are almost always perpetrated by men and address whether violent video games have anything to do with this male aggression, as some have argued. We end with some encouragement: How to feed your kids digital vegetables rather than digital candy.

Today we're talking about the atrocious shooting at an outlet mall in Allen, Texas, that took place Saturday. We go through the horrifying event, which took the lives of eight people, and explain why the conversation surrounding gun violence needs to be addressed in good faith by both parties, yet the Left doesn't seem to want to do that. We also look at the media response to the shooting, which – surprising no one – was filled with reporters very quickly building a narrative. Many liberal outlets almost immediately claimed from an anonymous source that the shooter had white supremacist roots despite not even being white. While the event is still being investigated, those reports seem to be largely unfounded at the moment. We also discuss big upcoming changes in our immigration system that will see a massive wave of migrants at the border. Then, we take a look at a CNN article that attempts to gain sympathy for a woman who was forced to carry her baby to term due to Florida's abortion restrictions. The woman argues it was even more horrifying to give birth and hold her son for 92 hours than it would have been to abort him, but the question remains – horrifying for whom? While we feel heartbreak for this family's tragedy, we reject the faux empathy that CNN seems to be promoting. --- Timecodes: (00:49) Intro (04:00) Shooting in Allen (13:05) Media response (30:05) Immigration changes (41:57) CNN abortion article --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — get $30 OFF your box today at GoodRanchers.com – make sure to use code 'ALLIE' when you subscribe.

The Sota Pod Podcast Episode 324

Today we're starting with a hot topic in the news: the death of Jordan Neely, who was put in a choke hold on the New York City subway after becoming erratic and throwing garbage on passengers and allegedly threatening violence. Many, including AOC and Ayanna Pressley, are calling this a racially motivated incident, though there's no proof that it was. Vigilante justice may not be the answer, but New York City officials have surely shown no motivation to make New York safe for its citizens, as crime often goes unpunished. Then, we take a look at a Senate bill from Texas that would protect children from gender transition. We take a look at some of the people protesting this kind of bill and talk about how it's only absolute creeps who vehemently fight for the "right" for kids to "gender transition." We also look at a recent Minnesota proposition that would remove language from a current law saying pedophilia is not a sexual orientation, essentially implying ... that it is? We'll also look at some great legislation in other states that push to protect kids from gender ideology and finish off with a look at Anthropologie's latest social media ad featuring a man dressed in the company's woman's clothing. --- Timecodes: (01:48) Jordan Neely death (14:35) Texas gender transition bill & protests (26:30) Minnesota bills (35:22) Good news from other states (38:50) Anthropologie ad --- Today's Sponsors: Naturally It's Clean — visit https://naturallyitsclean.com/allie and use promo code "ALLIE" to receive 15% off your order.

Today we're joined by Leonydus Johnson, political commentator and author of "Raising Victims: The Pernicious Rise of Critical Race Theory," to discuss where our country is headed when it comes to how we deal with race. We discuss his accidental fall into the political sphere after realizing the lies of the Left. We talk about why people who claim to be apolitical tend to vote leftward and explain why the ideas of the Left in theory sound so appealing to the unengaged person. We also discuss the rise of BLM and social justice bullying and the real definition of critical race theory and DEI. And Leonydus shares his definition of color-blindness and explains his argument for moving to a post-racial society. --- Timecodes: (00:55) Accidentally falling into politics (03:46) Why do apolitical people lean to the left (05:30) Obama and the shift of mainstream opinion / BLM (18:10) Critical race theory (28:20) Reasons for disparities (35:06) Equality of opportunity / equity (46:44) Colorblindness --- Today's Sponsors: A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!

Today we're joined by Christiana Kiefer, senior counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom, and her client Jessica Bates, who is suing the state of Oregon for denying her the opportunity to adopt two children because she would not comply with the state's policy to “respect, accept, and support" any child's sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. Jessica tells us her story, from losing her husband in a tragic accident to becoming a single mother of five and seeking to provide a home for even more children. Christiana shares the legal details and why the state of Oregon (among other states) appears to be valuing LGBTQ affirmation over putting children in loving homes.

Today we're discussing gender roles in the church, preaching vs. pastoring, and what a woman is allowed to do biblically. There is a debate circulating on social media over whether women should be able to teach academic theology or exposit the Bible even to other women. We start with definitions of biblical patriarchy, complementarianism, and egalitarianism. The patriarchal view says that if a woman is to teach other women, it must be within the bounds of child-rearing and homemaking. We explain why hierarchies in the home and church are important, but why complementarianism is different from biblical patriarchy. We all have proper context and responsibilities for our gifts, but while we agree that women should not be pastors or teach in pastoral roles, we don't see biblical support for the idea that women can't be talking about academic theology publicly, generally speaking. We look at John Piper's breakdown of complementarianism and touch on theological works written by women and discipleship. --- Timecodes: (00:46) Intro and definitions (06:36) Biblical patriarchy (14:55) My personal take (21:26) Hierarchies in the home and church (27:08) God-given skills / female pastors (36:52) Theological works by women (42:27) Discipleship (45:22) John Piper's view / complementarianism --- Today's Sponsors: Birch Gold — protect your future with gold.

Today we're joined by Rosaria Butterfield to hear her amazing testimony of how she found Christ after years of living in sin. She shares her story of coming to Christ, from being raised by secular Catholics, to coming out as a lesbian and becoming an esteemed feminist academic, to finally being saved and dedicating her life to God. We also talk about a recent article Rosaria wrote in which she publicly repented for engaging in "pronoun hospitality," the idea that affirming someone's chosen identity is a good way to gain someone's trust before sharing the Gospel with him. Rosaria explains why this isn't correct and offers a fresh perspective on why it's actually sinful for Christians to be supportive of "tolerant" or "inclusive" policies around marriage. We end with Rosaria's thoughts on how to stay connected with friends and family who do things like use preferred pronouns, without affirming something that isn't true; her advice to Christians who are struggling with believing they are gay or transgender; and how to navigate these situations in a biblical way.

Today we're talking about President Biden's re-election campaign launch and why his decision to run again makes no sense not only because his policies have been disastrous all around, but because he and Kamala Harris can't seem to even string together coherent sentences. We discuss how the average Democrat voter may buy into his message of being "moderate" despite his severe failures. Then, we take a look at his recent comments that "the nation's children are all our children." We reject this horrifying, Marxist ideology that aims to break down the family. We also look at a strange new trend of companies offering opt-outs for Mother's Day-themed emails and explain one new theory about why Tucker Carlson may have been forced to leave Fox. --- Timecodes: (01:04) Tribute to Joe Biden (02:20) Biden's campaign video (24:48) "The nation's children are all our children" (43:58) Mother's Day apologists (51:20) Tucker Carlson / Fox theory --- Today's Sponsors: A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!

Today we're looking at big news in the conservative media world – Tucker Carlson's shocking and sudden departure from Fox News yesterday. It appears he fully intended to do a show on Monday, which makes this departure all the more bizarre. While we don't know exactly what happened on the inside, many who have had cable news spots before are speculating. But what does this really mean for Fox News, and who could they possibly replace Tucker Carlson with? We look at AOC's call to silence Tucker, and subsequent celebration of his departure from Fox, and the women at The View had some extra cringe-worthy things to say as well. Ultimately, Carlson is leaving behind shoes so big we're just not sure Fox can find someone to fill them. We look at his legacy of speaking truth and being a trailblazer in media, and share some stories that reveal the kind of person he really is. --- Timecodes: (00:46) Celebrity airplane encounter (09:10) Tucker Carlson & Fox (27:25) AOC calls for Tucker's silencing (30:46) AOC celebrates (33:42) The View celebrates (36:30) Speculation (40:23) Tucker's views (55:32) Tucker stories --- Today's Sponsors: Seven Weeks Coffee — Seven Weeks is a pro-life coffee company with a simple mission: DONATE 10% of every sale to pregnancy care centers across America.

This Quoircast Podcast episode is brought to you by The Messy Spirituality Podcast who is all about finding God in unexpected places. In this episode we chat with Karen Shock Karen Shock's love for writing began when she received her first diary as a young girl. The lock and key made it easy for her to tell the diary some honest, dramatic truths about herself. All these years later, she still loves to put pen to paper and write out her deepest longings, wildest dreams, and biggest fears. The only difference now is there is no longer a lock and key on her thoughts. As time went on, she began to understand that putting the truth out there for the whole world to read might be scary, but the vulnerability was worth the risk. She wants readers to know that they are not alone. Karen lives in Fort Wayne, Indiana with her husband Kevin. They have four adult children, 4 grandchildren and one on the way. She is currently a writer for Patheos and has her first book, Too Much and Not Enough, coming out on April 18th.

Today we're joined again by our friend James Lindsay, founder of New Discourses, to discuss Christian nationalism. We first look at how prominent Christian figures define Christian nationalism and how it's easy for conservative Christians to accept a definition of Christian nationalism that can result in unwarranted control over all Christians. Where is the line between morality shaped by a biblical worldview and Christian nationalism, and who decides which worldview shapes policy? We debate a bit where right and wrong and the basis of law come from, then discuss James' quote-tweet of Allie's Nashville shooting take and why he doesn't disagree with her, he's just weary of the Left's trap to fragment the population. We share the truth behind the trans movement and the false omniscience necessary for that worldview. --- Timecodes: (01:05) Definitions & traps of Christian nationalism (24:13) Morality vs. Christian nationalism (37:04) Reformers (39:20) James quote tweets Allie about Nashville shooting (49:55) Trans movement is the inverse of Christianity (57:30) The body and authenticity/autonomy --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — get FREE bacon, great meat, a secure price, and a bonus of $20 OFF today at GoodRanchers.com – make sure to use code 'ALLIE' when you subscribe.

Today we're joined by Heather Mac Donald, author of “When Race Trumps Merit: How the Pursuit of Equity Sacrifices Excellence, Destroys Beauty, and Threatens Lives." First, we're covering the Chicago "Teen Takeover," which saw hundreds of teens in the streets of Chicago causing chaos, smashing car windows, firing guns, and attacking bystanders. Chicago's mayor-elect argues for defunding the police and said we shouldn't demonize these young people. We explain why this leads to demonizing cops instead and preventing them from keeping order in these cities. We talk about how it is social breakdown that leads young people to feel no hesitation about going out and shooting people and why the lack of parental control is the biggest problem. We compare two nearly identical stories of young people shot outside strangers' homes and the media response. One victim was white and one is black, but race is only brought up when it comes to the black victim. We explain why racial double standards are lethal and why, while this conversation is uncomfortable, it's necessary. --- Timecodes: (01:33) Introduction (03:56) Chicago "teen takeover" (11:26) Guns (15:50) Comparing two stories of shootings & media response (20:50) Intraracial crime (23:40) History vs. now (26:03) "When Race Trumps Merit" (30:46) Racial double standards are lethal (40:40) What can we do?

Today we're joined by our friend James Lindsay to discuss a few hot-button topics in the news. First we talk about Dylan Mulvaney's Budweiser sponsorship and its fallout. James explains why corporations are so obsessed with "inclusion" and what's on the line for them if they don't comply with ESG overlords. Then, we look at the United Nations' new report that calls for the decriminalization of all sexual activity (including pedophilia). Of course, this makes complete sense when you look at the consistent and ever-growing grooming culture among the Left. We talk about why the Left always seems to default to this and how the Right should respond. We also cover a Washington bill that would allow the state to provide sanctuary for children whose parents don't consent to transgender "treatments" or abortions. --- Timecodes: (02:33) Dylan Mulvaney Bud Light sponsorship & ESG (28:04) U.N. calls for decriminalization of all drug use and sexual activity (45:30) Washington bill to allow medical transgender interventions on minors without parental consent --- Today's Sponsors: A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!

Today we're joined by BlazeTV host of "4 Minute Buzz" Hilary Kennedy to discuss all kinds of weird occult products and shows popping up specifically for young people. First, a "Christian" ouija board for sale on Amazon promises to connect people with God. Psalm-themed tarot cards, marketed as "affirmation cards," are also deceptively marketed to Christians, and a ouija board marketed specifically to little girls features a pink kitten-themed aesthetic. This further shows that the glamorization and “normalizing” of the occult is becoming more and more prevalent at a pace we haven't seen in recent decades. We also discuss Disney's new German show "Pauline," about an 18-year-old getting pregnant by and falling in love with Satan, and why modern culture seems to keep coming back to this narrative in different formats. Then, we share some good news from CNN of all places: Abortion numbers have greatly decreased in post-Roe America! --- Timecodes: (00:51) Interview with Hilary begins (02:05) "Christian" ouija board (03:23) "Christian" tarot cards (07:16) Kids ouija board (10:51) Demon-themed Disney shows (14:29) The occult / new age beliefs in culture (29:38) Good news: abortion stats --- Today's Sponsors: EdenPURE — when you buy one Thunderstorm you get one FREE, this week only!

Today we're talking about Chris Tyson of the incredibly popular MrBeast YouTube channel, who announced his transition recently. This has prompted an investigation into his past, which includes what appears to be an obsession with anime, particularly anime with depictions of sexualized young girls. Chris appeared to be a normal, masculine husband and father with a Christian background. So, what happened, why does it matter, and what should we take away from all this? We take a look at other cases of anime influencing gender dysphoria. Then, a rainbow over the Covenant School presents a poignant reminder of God's faithfulness after the Nashville atrocity. --- Timecodes: (02:08) Chris Tyson transition summary (17:45) MrBeast's response (19:58) Chris' history & family (31:56) Anime / "loli" & ties to gender ideology (01:01:56) Covenant rainbow --- Today's Sponsors: Carly Jean Los Angeles — use promo code 'ALLIEBASICS' to save 25% off your first order at CarlyJeanLosAngeles.com!

Today we're joined by Brian Montgomery, a father from Mississippi who lost his 16-year-old son Walker to suicide last December after Walker was the victim of an online "sextortion" scam. "Sextortion" is a form of blackmail where someone threatens to share a nude or sexually explicit picture or video of the victim unless the predator's demands are met, and often teenage boys are the targets. While this is obviously the most horrifying thing that can happen to one's child, Brian walks us through how he and his wife found their son the next morning and how they uncovered what actually happened to him. We discuss why all parents need to be aware of evil scams like this one, even if their kids don't show problematic behavior, and Brian explains why he finds it important to share Walker's story. We also talk about how the Montgomerys have processed what happened and clung to their faith. --- Timecodes: (00:59) Interview with Brian begins / about his family (04:38) No warnings (07:45) Finding Walker (14:54) Finding out what happened (29:55) Allowing children to be alone with a phone (34:44) Criminal liability & similar stories (37:27) Warning your kids about this (41:23) Male and female blind spots (44:20) Coping --- Today's Sponsors: Seven Weeks Coffee — Seven Weeks is a pro-life coffee company with a simple mission: DONATE 10% of every sale to pregnancy care centers across America.

Today we're talking about the Tennessee Three, three Tennessee state legislators who are being hailed as heroes for their anti-gun advocacy in the wake of the Nashville atrocity. Gloria Johnson, Justin Pearson, and Justin Jones, now collectively the "Tennessee Three," led disruptive protests from the floor of the House chamber, halting proceedings. They each faced votes of expulsion, and only two of them were ultimately removed from the House, causing Republicans in the house to be labeled racists. We break down some of Pearson and Jones' terrible "Bible" preaching in the name of social justice and look at what this all means from both a political and theological perspective. --- Today's Sponsors: A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!

Today we're talking about Riley Gaines' recent run-in with trans activists at San Francisco State University. Gaines, an athlete who famously competed against Lia Thomas, gave a speech on fairness in sports, but what started as a peaceful event turned violent when a trans protester punched her in the face. She was then chased down by a screaming mob who trapped her in a room for hours and claimed she couldn't leave until they were given money. We discuss why violent events like this tend to stem from trans hatred of women and how there probably won't be consequences (but why it's good that she's pursuing consequences anyway). The good news is that normal people are starting to realize how ridiculous it all is. Another example of men skipping the line is a British man who identifies as a woman who has gained accolades for his mediocre ballet, being accepted to a prestigious dance academy. Meanwhile Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird, who are both successful female athletes, are fighting for men to compete against women. We explain why affirming lies is evil, no matter how kind you think you're being. Then, we take a look at Mike Todd's Transformation Church and its absolutely wild Easter service, which featured ... twerking? --- Timecodes: (00:36) Intro (02:09) Men competing in women's sports (07:37) Riley Gaines (24:24) Trans ballerina (28:10) Megan Rapinoe & Sue Bird want men to compete against women (32:11) Affirming delusions & Genesis 1 issues (44:30) Transformation Church Easter service --- Today's Sponsors: EdenPURE — when you buy one Thunderstorm you get one FREE, this week only!

Today we're talking about a few stories related to abortion. First, NPR published a story about a Texas mom who couldn't abort her baby (who was diagnosed with a fatal disorder) due to Texas' abortion law, hoping to provoke sympathy for women who have to bring their pregnancies to term. Now the mother has claimed she cannot afford a funeral for the baby, who passed shortly after her birth. NPR appears to argue that it would have been better for the baby to have been dismembered than to be born and need a funeral. We explain why this ignores the absolute trauma of abortion, as well as the beautiful moment this baby got to see the face of her mother before she died. Then, U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk issued a ruling which could stop the prescribing and distribution of mifepristone, one of two drugs used to perform abortions via pill, due to the FDA's flawed approval process. The opinion now waits for appeals from the Biden administration, but we discuss why this is a great win and could mean huge difficulties for getting abortions nationwide (as about half of abortions in the country are performed via pill). We also take a look at some of the drug's shady connections and why we should all be questioning its origins. We also offer some encouragement to be bold and stop looking for the approval of man when we face criticism for our faith. --- Timecodes: (00:40) Intro (03:05) Encouragement (12:50) NPR article on mom who couldn't get an abortion (28:06) Judge halts abortion pill (38:30) Leftist responses (50:35) Scary origins of abortion pill --- Today's Sponsors: Cozy Earth — go to CozyEarth.com/ALLIE and use promo code 'ALLIE' at checkout to save 35% off your order!

Luckily, since then my wins have significantly outnumbered my losses and I have made a lot more money than I ever did as a physician. But It hasn't always been smooth sailing. The first apartment building I bought for myself […] The post 363: Know, Like and Trust is Not Enough appeared first on Wealth Formula.

Today we're joined by Dr. Jeremiah Johnston, president of the Christian Thinkers Society, pastor of apologetics and cultural engagement at Prestonwood Baptist Church, and author of "Body of Proof: The 7 Best Reasons to Believe in the Resurrection of Jesus—and Why it Matters Today," to discuss Jesus' resurrection and apologetics as a whole. We touch both on how to raise Christian thinkers and how to become Christian thinkers ourselves, citing how Jesus asks us to love God with our hearts and minds. We discuss the legacy of the Christian faith and the many wonderful things Christian thinking has brought to societies. Then we look specifically at the resurrection and why it's so fundamental to not just our beliefs as Christians but to the world overall. We cover some of the facts that prove it really happened and answer the question of why it matters for us now. --- Timecodes: (01:11) Interview with Jeremiah begins (02:49) Raising Christian thinkers (06:40) How to start being a Christian thinker (11:40) Apologetics (15:42) Christianity makes sense (20:52) Christian ideas & legacy of faith (27:13) How do we deal with criticism of Christianity (34:53) Body of Proof (38:51) Facts / reasons bodily resurrection is essential (42:20) What does this mean for us? --- Today's Sponsors: Naturally It's Clean — visit https://naturallyitsclean.com/allie and use promo code "ALLIE" to receive 15% off your order.

Today we're joined by one of your favorite guests, BlazeTV's own Steve Deace, host of the "Steve Deace Show," to discuss Trump's arrest and Steve's new movie, "Nefarious." Yesterday Trump pled not guilty to 34 felony counts of falsifying business records brought upon him by a Manhattan grand jury. We talk about how this is just an escalation of what has been going on the past few years and how this isn't a legal proceeding – it's a political one. We look at this from a theological approach and then discuss why we need to see a political power correction by Republicans, spiritual revival, and a generational changeover. Then, we talk about Steve's new movie, "Nefarious," which aims to portray the truth about the demonic world and give an opportunity for you to talk to your friends about Jesus. --- Timecodes: (00:48) Trump arrest (06:06) What conservatives care about (10:12) Theological approach (14:13) Trump's motives & what will happen (23:23) DeSantis, Trump & the "hero cult" (28:48) Political will & spiritual revival (32:57) Generational changeover (35:19) Nefarious --- Today's Sponsors: A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!

Today we're looking at Uganda's "Anti-Homosexuality Bill 2023" and the response from the U.S. Two weeks ago Uganda passed legislation that would rather severely criminalize homosexuality. We first look at a Washington Post opinion piece that argues that much of Africa is "marching back on LGBT rights" and reveals quite a bit about how leftists see their own morality in comparison to the rest of the world. The Ugandan bill is waiting to be signed by Uganda's president, but what was the United States' response? Threatening to withdraw aid. We discuss the Left's insistence on imposing its ideas of what equality should look like, when it's clear that Africa doesn't care at all what leftists think. Then, Rosaria Butterfield posted an article yesterday in which she repents for her previous use of preferred pronouns and calling other Christians to do the same. We explain why her view is exactly right and why Christians who disagree are missing the big picture and risking their witness. --- Timecodes: (00:49) Intro / merch (03:16) Uganda Washington Post article (12:12) Uganda Bill specifics (16:33) U.S. response (22:48) Tweet responses (26:23) Rosaria Butterfield & pronouns --- Today's Sponsors: EdenPURE — when you buy one Thunderstorm you get one FREE, this week only!

Today we're talking about Trump's indictment and the endless rumors about what it means for both the upcoming presidential election and politics in general. While many speculate that his indictment means he's secured the Republican nomination, we argue that this event ultimately won't change the minds of Republicans who are sick of him. Then we talk about the Tr*ns Day of Visibility (which many activists deemed "Day of Vengeance"), which took place on Friday. Rallies across the country showed the true colors of the people arguing for "visibility," and one counter-protester, Billboard Chris, was assaulted. We discuss the NHL questioning its own "Pride Night" event after backlash and give an encouragement for those who are finding it hard to find good news of late. We end with a recap from Producer Bri on Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. --- Timecodes: (03:30) Trump indicted (15:20) Tr*ns Day of Visibility / Vengeance (25:00) Billboard Chris' assault (31:25) Other gender rallies (36:11) White House support for Tr*ns Day of Visibility (44:50) NHL Pride Night (48:02) Encouragement (01:00:02) Taylor Swift Eras Tour Recap --- Today's Sponsors: Carly Jean Los Angeles — use promo code 'ALLIEB' to save 20% off your first order at CarlyJeanLosAngeles.com!

Today we're looking back at the aftermath of the Nashville tragedy and some of the awful rhetoric being promulgated by the media. First, we look at the Left's refusal to identify this atrocity as an anti-Christian attack when, if the victims were in a protected class, they would immediately identify the motive. We look at Audrey Hale's history of "not being accepted" by her parents and why some are seeing this as a reason for her inexcusable behavior. Then we discuss how after three 9-year-olds were murdered, the focus seems to be on the fact that trans people are scared. We look at where the violence is actually coming from and some ridiculous tweet reactions to the event, as well as yet another embarrassing moment from Biden. --- Timecodes: (02:35) Intro / cultural Christianity dissipating (06:28) Update on shooting & motive (19:33) Trans people feel targeted (39:49) Where is the violence actually coming from?

Today we're joined by Kara Frederick, director of the Tech Policy Center at the Heritage Foundation, to discuss Congress' recent TikTok hearings and the arguments for and against a nationwide TikTok ban. We discuss how much power China holds over TikTok as a company and what, ultimately, China could do with our data. We talk about how it's not just a concern when it comes to government data and why it's also dangerous for China to have YOUR specific data. We also look at a clip from the TikTok hearing in which TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew cannot deny that the CCP is manipulating content on the app. But does China manipulate TikTok algorithms to push ideologies that weaken the U.S., while restricting those very same ideologies in its own country? We explain why it's naive to think the answer is no. We also talk about the RESTRICT Act, a bill proposed to ban TikTok, and the opposition from both sides of the political aisle. --- Timecodes: (03:24) Interview begins (05:20) China taking TikTok data (09:25) Why should we care about TikTok on our personal phones?

Today we're talking about a difficult topic – the shooting that occurred at a Christian school yesterday in Nashville, claiming the lives of six people (three of whom were children). We start with a word of encouragement as emotions are high: God sees this, he is grieved by it more than any of us could ever be, and he will do something about it. We share our condolences to the families of the victims, one of whom was a 9-year-old daughter of a beloved local pastor. The shooter, a woman who identified as a man, was killed by brave police less than 15 minutes after they got the first call. We take a look at some of the rhetoric that's been spreading since the shooting, from news correspondents blaming conservatives to anti-Christian messages of "understanding" about the shooter's potential motive against Christians. We also look at trans activists' recent history of inciting violence against those they deem "genocidal." Yet despite the increasing tensions, we know whom we can take comfort in. --- Timecodes: (00:51) Intro / Psalm 37 (07:21) Why would God allow this to happen?

Today we're joined again by Jinger Duggar Vuolo, author of "Becoming Free Indeed: My Story of Disentangling Faith from Fear," and Jeremy Vuolo to discuss their theology deep dive into Bill Gothard's teachings and how Jinger found herself in gospel truth. In her new book, Jinger shares her theological journey from following a fundamentalist leader to finding freedom in Christ. We discuss the immediate response to the book and some criticisms she has faced because of it. Jeremy shares how his upbringing shaped their theology after they met, and we talk about their study of the Duggars' traditional belief system and Jinger's realization that this theology was not entirely biblical. We also discuss Jinger's brother Josh, who is currently in prison, and how his actions, as well as the media portrayal of Christianity as a whole because of his actions, led Jinger and Jeremy to speak out for the true gospel. We also look at the lies spread about Jessa Duggar Seewald's miscarriage a few weeks ago, which many anti-Christian news sources claimed was an abortion. How do these lies affect Jinger, and how do Jinger and Jeremy cope with this media scrutiny? --- Timecodes: (01:26) Interview begins / response to book (05:40) Jeremy's background & thoughts on TLC show (09:14) Theological differences (14:35) Bill Gothard's teachings (27:44) Marrying Jeremy and scrutiny (30:06) Josh Duggar & real Christianity (42:06) Jessa Duggar Seewald's miscarriage & media lies (45:40) Motherhood (48:30) Reverting to old theology (52:55) Advice for those confronting their theology (58:33) Giveaway winners! --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — change the way you shop for meat today by visiting GoodRanchers.com/ALLIE and use promo code 'ALLIE' for $20 off your first order.

Today our theme is "laugh so you don't cry" – we're covering some of the ridiculous things happening in our world, and while things are looking bleak, we're going to laugh at the absurdity. First, China's Xi Jinping and Russia's Putin met last week to ... take over the world? Meanwhile, in the U.S., the cast of "Ted Lasso" visits a White House press briefing (because we have time for that apparently), Joe Biden still can't seem to read from a prompter, and Vice President Kamala Harris sends a formal letter congratulating Dylan Mulvaney on 365 days of pretending to be a girl. We also take a look at a list of things that are now apparently racist, including coffee, ballet, and highways, and discuss Robin DiAngelo pushing for segregation. --- Timecodes: (04:44) Putin and Xi Jinping meeting (12:00) Ted Lasso at White House press briefing (13:28) Biden can't read a poem (15:29) Jill Biden is frustrated with Joe (20:50) Propaganda from CCP and Soviet Russia (24:24) Things that are apparently racist (34:45) Robin DiAngelo pushes for segregation (41:35) Pentagon diversity chief (46:39) VP Harris sends letter to Dylan Mulvaney --- Today's Sponsors: Birch Gold — protect your future with gold.
