Today, we explore the question: What is Israel from a Christian perspective? We break down the distinct and unified views within Christianity, and we examine what scripture says about Israel's role in prophecy and modern geopolitics. Plus, we share insights from a viral exchange between Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Tucker Carlson on Israel and discuss why Christians aren't necessarily obligated to support Israel militarily but should still find value in its alliance and pray for the salvation of those who live there.

On this Wellness Wednesday, we sit down with Bethany McDaniel, founder of Primally Pure, to discuss her journey to building a thriving non-toxic skin care brand rooted in regenerative farming. We explore how her family's farm, Primal Pastures, inspired her to create effective natural deodorants and other products like beef tallow-based balms and zinc oxide sunscreens, challenging conventional beauty norms. Bethany shares insights on the toxicity of common skin care ingredients, the importance of mindful sun exposure, and balancing entrepreneurship with motherhood. She also reflects on how her faith guides her business, the power of creation-based wellness, and navigating controversy with bold marketing. Share the Arrows 2025 is on October 11 in Dallas, Texas!

In this episode, Jack Ferguson and Gerard Doyle break down how marketing agency pitches really work, revealing the hidden costs, internal strain, and showmanship that often wins business, regardless of the agency's ability to deliver.Listen in and hear how:Gerard used cellophane glasses, laser-cut covers, and a 22-year-old grad to win over Coca-Cola executives. An H&M global pitch left an agency office bearing $50,000 in unrecoverable costs.A baby sock accidentally pulled out during a pitch nearly derailed a million-dollar opportunity.Too many agencies are spending tens of thousands preparing for pitches they'll likely never win.The traditional pitching model forces agencies to create elaborate "performances" that don't reflect quality of work.A fundamentally broken system causes excessive mental and emotional strain when pitching for clients.Gerard shares insider stories from his 25 years of agency experience, revealing the true cost of winning, and losing, high-stakes marketing pitches.This episode was co-hosted by:Brand Strategist Jack FergusonAndFractal Agency Owner Gerard DoyleFind Jack on LinkedIn here: Jack Ferguson | LinkedInFind Gerard on LinkedIn here: Gerard Doyle | LinkedInFollow The Push on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thepushFollow The Push on TikTok here: thepushmedialab (@thepushmedialab) | TikTokFollow The Push on Instagram here: InstagramVisit The Push website here: Marketing scenarios.

Today, we sit down with Naomi Epps Best, a graduate student at Santa Clara University studying family and marriage counseling, who recently exposed the shocking curriculum in her required human sexuality course. Naomi shares her disturbing experience of being required to engage with erotica, pornographic content, and a sexual autobiography assignment. She reveals how her Christian faith led her to challenge this ideological capture in therapy education, culminating in a Wall Street Journal op-ed where she blew the whistle on her program. Then, she got fired. We discuss the university's response, the crisis in the mental health profession, and why critical thinkers are being pushed out. Naomi also shares her journey and her efforts to hold the psychological field accountable while pursuing her calling to help others.

Today, we sit down with Christian content creator April Chapman to discuss her journey from the prosperity gospel to a biblically grounded faith, her path to healing after abortions, and how she navigates racial and political divides as a believer. April shares about her upbringing in New York City, her exposure to the prosperity gospel at a megachurch, and the transformative moment she encountered the true gospel. She opens up about the pain of her past abortions and how she confronted her sin and found healing through God's grace. We also explore her rejection of "racial reconciliation" narratives that elevate ethnic distinctions over gospel unity. How can Christians celebrate our God-given differences without falling into division or ethnic idolatry?

Vaisesika Dasa: It's easy to surrender to Krishna than not. I stand by that, from extensive experience. Audience: It feels easier sometimes not to surrender. Vaisesika Dasa: That's ignorance. You know, we get absorbed in ignorance. For instance, scrolling may seem to be a kind of shelter, but it's shelter in the mode of ignorance. And Kṛṣṇa then enlightens us In the Bhagavad Gītā, He says, "Shelter in the mode of ignorance leads to more foolishness. The shelter in the mode of passion leads to misery, but shelter in the mode of goodness leads to a sense of happiness." But the only shelter is shelter of Kṛṣṇa. He gives an example: even in the mode of goodness, it's like poison in the beginning, nectar in the end. And shelter in the mode of passion is nectar in the beginning, poison in the end. Relatable, right? So there is some tapasya in taking shelter of Krishna because of the ways in which the senses have become addicted to passion and ignorance and so forth. The remedy: 'śṛṇvatāṁ sva-kathāḥ kṛṣṇaḥ puṇya-śravaṇa-kīrtanaḥ hṛdy antaḥ stho hy abhadrāṇi vidhunoti suhṛt satām. Naṣṭa-prāyeṣv abhadreṣu nityaṁ bhāgavata-sevayā bhagavaty uttama-śloke bhaktir bhavati naiṣṭhikī.tadā rajas-tamo-bhāvāḥ kāma-lobhādayaś ca ye ceta etair anāviddhaṁ sthitaṁ sattve prasīdati (SB 1.2.17-19).' By hearing Bhāgavatam then gradually all that clears up, and we can understand that our only shelter is Krishna. And then at the verse, "tadā rajas," I know when I was a kid, when we would do a magic show and pull a rabbit out of a hat or something, we would go, "Tada!" So in this verse, there's a point at which tadā means, "at that point." Tadā — I'm free from all these false shelters. Tadā rajas tamo 'bhāvāḥ. They're all diminishing because of the power of Krishna in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. So chanting Hare Krishna and hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam—it's the panacea through which we can give up all bad shelters. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

We talk about the different phases of a woman's menstrual cycle and why hormonal birth control doesn't actually "regulate the period" despite what doctors may say. Dr. Briden also tells us about the difference between artificial hormones and the natural ones produced during a woman's cycle and just how dangerous these artificial hormones can be. And she shares some tips for women struggling with period pain or irregular cycles and what they can do to improve their health.

Today, we're taking a break from some of the heavier stuff we've discussed recently and are reacting to some of the recent videos producer Bri has been saving up for such an occasion. Unfortunately, there are still fake babies, this time with Disney adults. And why is there a "trans" flag hanging on El Capitan in Yosemite?! But luckily, there are some happy things, too, like young kids sharing Jesus with Mickey Mouse and commanding bugs to leave the garden in the name of Jesus.

Stéphanie welcomes Ann and Dave Wilson, the hosts of global ministry and syndicated radio show FamilyLife, to discuss key insights from their decades of marriage and ministry. The title of their new book says it all: "How to speak life to your husband when all you want to do is yell at him." What if one small shift—like choosing encouragement over criticism—could change the tone of your whole marriage? Real people in real relationships have real problems, but with God's help, you can heal and sustain your marriage for a lifetime. The Wilsons, through vulnerability and wisdom, highlight how Christian spouses—particularly wives, though the lessons are universal—can profoundly impact their marriages by transforming their mindset and the words they speak. Recognizing Shifting Cultural Dynamics Ann shares that over 45 years of marriage and ministry, she's observed a cultural shift. Dissatisfaction and unrest in marriages seem more common, with a tendency for spouses—especially wives—to see their partners as adversaries or projects for improvement. Ann notes the escalation of negative speech and a belief that critiques or reminders will motivate change. In reality, frequent criticism often demotivates the other partner. The Power of Words A pivotal story shared by Ann involves her realization that her well-intended feedback sounded like constant “booing” to Dave. Ann genuinely believed her critiques would help Dave become a better husband, father, and man. However, after an honest conversation and prayer, Ann discovered that her negative words were discouraging him more than anything. This revelation led her to a critical self-examination and a commitment to use her words to encourage rather than to correct. The Path from Critique to Affirmation Ann's journey involved asking God for conviction—not condemnation—and humbly examining her attitude. She confronted her own pride, recognizing the difference between thinking "I failed" (which God forgives and restores) and "I am a failure" (which is condemnation and shame). With this shift, she chose to focus on what was good and praiseworthy in Dave, believing that God calls spouses to be each other's chief encouragers. The Science Behind Positive Illusion Ann references Dr. Helene Fisher's research, which found that happy, long-term marriages are characterized by a “positive illusion”—focusing on what you like about your spouse, intentionally rewiring your mindset to notice and affirm the good. This is supported by brain science and aligns with biblical instructions about renewing your mind. Practical Outworking and Challenges Practically, Ann began to express gratitude and appreciation—starting with simple thanks for Dave's hard work. Dave testifies that these words of encouragement were more powerful than any affirmation he received elsewhere. This shift motivated him to grow into the person Ann saw in him. A Revolution of Respect and Gratitude Ann frames this approach as a “rebellion” against a culture that devalues respect. By choosing respect and gratitude—whether verbally, in writing, or through a daily journal—wives can breathe life and hope into their husbands, families, and homes. Dave affirms that authentic encouragement, rather than critique, draws men toward home and transforms family culture. The God-Given Power of Influence Through Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, any spouse can become a speaker of life in marriage. This transformation is not about being passive or suppressing truth but about courageously choosing love, hope, and affirmation as radical acts of faith—ultimately reflecting God's heart for us. How might shifting from critique to encouragement change the atmosphere in your closest relationships? What step can you take today to practice the “positive illusion” in your marriage or family? ABOUT THE BOOK “HOW TO SPEAK LIFE TO YOUR HUSBAND WHEN ALL YOU WANT TO DO IS YELLE AT HIM” Discover the marriage you've always hoped for. With practical tools to help you communicate more effectively, you'll learn to speak the language of love and grace that will encourage and strengthen your husband at every turn. Buy the book here: https://shop.familylife.com/product/how-to-speak-life-to-your-husband-when-all-you-want-to-do-is-yell-at-him/ Ann Wilson spent more than a decade longing for a better marriage and for her husband to be more attentive, more involved, more helpful, and just all-around better. And every chance she got, she told him so. Where she thought she was being helpful, she was instead badgering him with constant critiques until all he heard was, “Boo! Boo!” when they were together. It almost broke their marriage. But Ann discovered the power that God has given wives. No matter how long you've been married, you don't need to spend another minute hoping and wishing for things to be different. They can! And the power is in your hands. In this motivating, honest new book, Ann–marriage coach and bestselling author with her husband, Dave–shares how she breathed new life into her marriage by stewarding one of the most powerful gifts believers inherit from the Creator: encouragement. God has given wives a superpower to influence their husbands and homes, and you can use that power to build up and encourage your man to be a better husband, father, and man of God while still speaking truth to him. Relatable, encouraging, biblical, and funny, Ann shares stories from her own life, as well as valuable insights from Scripture, to help you: · Address the ways you process and justify your communication patterns · Seek spiritual and relational (re)alignment with both your husband and God · Learn to exercise self-control and demonstrate radical grace in conversations with your husband · Begin to cheer more than boo–in a way that isn't put on, fake, or inauthentic · Learn to speak truth in a way your husband can really hear you · And, ultimately, cultivate a grace-based marriage that thrives · Real people in real relationships have real problems, but with God's help, you can heal and sustain your marriage for a lifetime.

Today, we're discussing the tragic attack in Boulder, Colorado, over the weekend, when a pro-Palestine man allegedly threw Molotov cocktails at elderly Jewish protesters, including a Holocaust survivor. We get into the details of the attack, and while the FBI is calling this a terrorist attack, Boulder Police seem to be hesitant to ascribe a motive yet. And why is the media calling the suspect, an Egyptian national who is here illegally, a "white man"? We also talk about Adriana Smith, a Georgia woman being kept alive even after being declared brain-dead because she is pregnant with a baby boy. What laws are actually at play here, and why does it seem like the Left wants an innocent baby to die? Lastly, we talk about Floyd Brown, the former vice president of development at the Kennedy Center, and how he was allegedly fired for speaking out against "gay marriage" and standing up for his Christian beliefs.

Last week on the Spin Sucks Podcast, Gini Dietrich shared the 4 types of data stories you need to communicate your metrics effectively. This week, she is talking about how to take those stories to the next level, and make them relatable to the decision makers you're working with.
In this episode, we sit down with Rupal Patel, Founder and CEO of The Global Leadership Lab, who's on a mission to redefine what leadership means in today's complex, fast-changing world. Her journey to the C-suite is anything but conventional—and that's exactly what makes it powerful.From starting her career as a young hustler in PR at an indie hip-hop label to unexpectedly serving as a CIA analyst, Rupal has moved through vastly different spaces with the same signature blend of curiosity, courage, and creativity. She's the kind of leader who can unpack global geopolitics in one breath and dive into her favorite book in the next—all over a strong cup of coffee.Relatable, nerdy, thoughtful, and fiercely creative, Rupal shares how embracing the unexpected shaped her leadership philosophy, why real conversations with the right people matter and what inspired her to write not one but multiple books.This isn't just a story about success—it's about resilience, reinvention, and leading with both intensity and heart.

Happy Noahic Covenant Month! Despite what the world says the rainbow represents, we know that it's a sign of God's promise to never flood the earth again, and for that, we're grateful. But wait, why do some conservative voices appear to be defending journalist Glenn Greenwald's degenerate sexual behavior in a recent leaked video? We go over the scandal and offer a more grounded, biblical response to the situation. And there is still some good news: A recent Gallup poll shows that Republican support for "same-sex marriage" is at a historic 30-year low!

In today's episode, we sit down with Clare Morell, author and fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, to discuss the overwhelming negative effects that screens are having on our children. Clare explains the difference between passive and active screens, and how while one is worse than the other, neither can really be called "good" for children. She even goes so far as to argue that the proper amount of screen time for children is none at all! And while we know “CoComelon” is frying babies' brains, is it actually worse than we thought?

We go over some of Peterson's great answers and give a grounded, Christian response to his not-so-great responses.

In a world where passive leadership is the norm, especially among men, we dive into the story of Boaz in Ruth 4, a model of redemptive, sacrificial leadership. And we contrast that with one of the most disturbing stories in Scripture from Judges 19—where silence and passivity lead to tragedy.This isn't a “try harder” message. It's a call to Spirit-empowered manhood—where strength meets gentleness, courage meets compassion, and leadership is rooted in love.It's time to step up—not out of pressure, but out of purpose.
In today's episode, we sit down with Elliston Berry, a teen whose classmate shared AI-generated nude deepfakes of her and seven other girls, and her mother, Anna, to discuss the events leading up to the now-signed Take It Down Act. Elliston shares her story with us and tells us how she learned of the images and how the student sharing them was eventually caught. She and her mom also tell us about how Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) wrote the Take It Down Act, which passed both the House and the Senate with near-unanimous support. And Anna shares valuable wisdom for parents when facing challenging situations like this one. This episode is brought to you by Olive, the app built for the MAHA movement.

In today's installment of our Wellness Wednesday series, we talk with Dr. Daniel Amen, psychiatrist and and founder of Amen Clinics, about ADHD and mental illness treatments in the United States. He tells us about the seven different types of ADHD that he has seen in his clinics as well as some of the potential causes and treatments beyond medication that are available. And are young boys being over-medicalized just for being rambunctious boys, or is there a real rise in ADHD diagnoses? Lastly, we pick Dr. Amen's brain, no pun intended, on marijuana and mushroom use in adolescents and just how harmful it can be.

Today, we sit down with author and Daily Wire host Andrew Klavan to discuss his new book, "The Kingdom of Cain: Finding God in the Literature of Darkness." We talk about the nature of evil in this world and how God uses even the most heinous acts to point back to Him and His goodness. We also discuss the popularity of the true crime genre, particularly among women, and explore why people are drawn to such darkness. Andrew also shares a bit of his testimony with us and how he seeks to glorify God even through the writing of his crime novels.

According to G3, Josh had been using anonymous X accounts and Substacks in order to slander other Christians, pastors, and even his fellow elders at Pray's Mill Baptist Church. We go over some of the alleged accounts he used as well as G3's response in canceling its annual conference.

Today, we're chatting with Dr. Adam Urato, a fetal and maternal medicine specialist, to discuss the lack of informed consent given to pregnant women concerning certain medications they're taking, namely SSRI antidepressants. Dr. Urato tells us about the crucial role serotonin plays in fetal development and the negative effects that SSRI use in pregnancy can have on an unborn baby. We also discuss the increase in medical interventions in pregnancy in recent decades and how these interventions may not be as positive as they seem. And is the pharmaceutical industry to blame for doctors' lack of concern over SSRI use? This episode is brought to you by Olive, the app built for the MAHA movement.

Today, we have Allie's dad, Ron Simmons, here to break down the ongoing tariffs with China and other countries and to bring some sense to what's happening with Trump's trade deals. We also talk about the Trump administration bringing refugees over from South Africa, despite the Left's outrage over the deportations of illegal migrants. But will these weekend victories help Trump's approval ratings? And while certain state bills are stalled or on the floor, Ron shares some valuable advice and recommendations for voters who wish to talk to their representatives about their concerns.

In today's episode, we're discussing the Trump administration's insistence on remaining on the wrong side of the abortion debate with its defense of allowing the abortion pill to be accessible online and via mail. We go over the DOJ's arguments, especially in light of a recent study that showed the abortion pill is far more deadly than the FDA previously advertised. We also discuss a recent undercover investigation by Live Action that showed Planned Parenthood's willingness to give "cross-sex hormones" to minors without parental consent. Later, we sit down with Abby Johnson to talk about the recent bill in Texas that would have criminalized abortion ... had pro-life groups not stopped it in its tracks.

Today, we're talking about a crunchy mom influencer, known as "Rose Uncharted" on Instagram, who recently deconstructed from Christianity and started sharing New Age ideas and beliefs. This is not to shame her but rather to draw attention to the false teachings and bad theologies that can influence even the most scrupulous people. We go over her past posts about motherhood and health and detail how she slowly spiraled into the unbiblical idea of a "Christ consciousness." Of course, this idea has been around for decades, but that doesn't stop people from claiming that it's a new idea. And we refute all of these ideas of a "Christ consciousness" with the truth found in scripture. This episode was sponsored by Olive, the app built for the MAHA movement.

Today, we're sitting down with our friend Michael Knowles of the Daily Wire to talk about all things Catholicism. He explains the current papal conclave and the process to elect a new pope, and he breaks down the most likely candidates for the position. We also talk about the controversy online surrounding the recent post by President Trump of an AI-generated image of himself as the pope. True to form, the Left just couldn't resist being hypocrites about it. And we discuss a recent state law that would require Catholic priests to break the sacrament of confession and what this means for the church.

Today, we're answering a question posed by a recent viral video: Do stay-at-home mothers need to be intellectually stimulating? Or is this idea just rooted in girlboss feminism? We share some insight and also give some tips on how to answer your kids' hard theological questions. And Christianity Today editor in chief Russell Moore is back with another article about toxic empathy, but he still fails to square it with Christian morality.

In today's episode, we sit down with independent investigative journalist Edwin Dorsey to discuss his recent, disturbing investigation into KinderCare, one of the nation's largest day-care providers. Edwin tells us about how he unearthed evidence of horrible child abuse and neglect, including children escaping day-care centers, staff abandoning children after hours, and one tragic instance of a toddler overdosing on cocaine found in a worker's backpack. And horribly, our tax dollars are funding these day-care centers. We also discuss a similar investigation Edwin published years ago about child-care provider Care.com, where he uncovered that the platform was lying about doing background checks. We also talk about the dangers of Roblox and how the platform isn't actually as safe for kids as it might advertise.

Today, we cover a recent disturbing exposé by the Wall Street Journal showing that Facebook's Meta AI can have explicit conversations with minor user accounts. We go over the lack of reasonable guardrails and talk about how this was allowed to happen in the first place. The internet is already dangerous enough for young children to navigate; we don't need AI chatbots making it worse. And does Mark Zuckerberg want people to use these chatbots as a replacement for friends?

Today, we sit down with investigative journalist and author David Zweig to discuss his new book, "An Abundance of Caution: American Schools, the Virus, and a Story of Bad Decisions," and how the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 and subsequent closing of schools had lasting effects on an entire generation of children. David tells us about his investigative reporting in the early days of the pandemic and how he came to realize that the mainstream media and the "experts" were lying about almost everything. We also talk about how school closures did almost nothing to slow the spread of the virus and left irreparable and often unseen damage on millions of children across the country. And how did the pandemic get politicized so quickly?
