Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”The root of the cultural chaos we are experiencing is a surrender of the Truth of things! Today Jack takes you inside a viral confrontation over women's locker rooms, presses into why definitions matter for safety and law, and asks a harder question most debates skip: are we created with purpose and order, or are we accidents of history free to redefine reality on the fly? From that starting point, everything else follows—coherent policy, compassionate boundaries, and a moral ecology that protects the vulnerable.We share the exchange of a Lesbian Black women with a liberal state senator as a case study in clashing worldviews: identity claims versus biological reality, the language of “inclusion” versus the lived experience of women who need privacy and protection. Then we widen the frame to children, adoption, and natural law. If public institutions treat bodies as arbitrary and family as interchangeable, who absorbs the cost? We wrestle with that question honestly and keep kids at the center.We also examine the Church's Shepherds, who are responsible for proclaiming the Truth...who instead struggle to speak with clarity, highlighting moments of institutional confusion and the courage of leaders like Bishop Strickland who ask for fidelity to doctrine. Rather than despair, we pivot to formation: how small, faithful communities and daily habits can renew minds and rebuild culture from the parish outward. Scripture's promise—“you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free”—is presented as a roadmap to real freedom, not license, and to love that is ordered, fruitful, and humane.If you're tired of “my truth” vs “your truth,” this conversation offers first principles, practical steps, and a battle plan for living the truth with charity.

In this 4-part series we explore how Mary, Joseph, the Shepherds, and the Wise Men each said YES to God in the original nativity story. Their responses of surrender, humility, joy, and worship invite us to consider: how will we respond in our own yes moments? The Magi's journey reveals God's plan to draw all nations to Christ. Christmas is not just for some—it's for the world. Their devotion is breathtaking as they pay a huge price in time and money to risk everything for an encounter with the Messiah.

Their responses of surrender, humility, joy, and worship invite us to consider: how will we respond in our own yes moments? God's glory is revealed first to the lowly, the overlooked, and the ordinary. Behold the good news that the Saviour is for all people—not just the powerful or the religious. But will they shake off the cultural norms and say yes to the invitation and show-up. Firstly, for Jesus, and then for the world.

In this episode of Shepherds of the Wild, filmmaker Tom Opre sits down with Montana rancher and outfitter Matt Wickens to talk about the hard truths facing rural America. From razor-thin ranching margins to the rise of the American Prairie Reserve and the loss of working lands, Wickens lays bare the challenges of keeping family operations alive in a changing landscape. The two discuss the economics of local beef, the value of outfitting to small towns like Winifred, and what "rewilding" really means for those who live on the land.
The hardest part of parenting isn't the calendar or the carpools—it's knowing when to cheer louder and when to get out of the way. We sit down, shorts weather and all, to unpack the thin line between healthy encouragement and the kind of blind confidence that leaves a kid declaring they're “the best at hockey” after crying through evaluations. From the glass at a rink to the bleachers at gymnastics, we explore what it actually looks like to let kids struggle, self-correct, and choose their own path.Our conversation ranges from back-to-school overload and the hidden cost of over-scheduling to the surprisingly tender lessons inside a messy morning meltdown—including a drywall repair and a real apology. We talk honestly about coaching your own kid versus stepping back so they can hear another voice, the difference between praise that builds grit and praise that inflates ego, and how to set consequences that teach priorities without shaming effort. You'll hear why “shepherds, not engineers” has become our north star, plus practical ways to handle siblings who disrupt cherished rituals, like a peaceful fishing trip that goes gloriously sideways.Whether your child is trading team hockey for solo gymnastics, begging for new basketball shoes without logging reps, or insisting they're “fine” for tests they didn't study for, you'll get tools to navigate motivation, resilience, and repair. Expect candid stories, hard-won strategies, and a reminder that your voice doesn't have to be the loudest to lead. If you're trying to raise grounded, confident kids who can handle feedback and find their drive, press play and join the conversation. If this resonated, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review—what's one place you're ready to step back so your kid can step up?

Lesson 4 - The One Who Shepherds His PeopleMark 6:7-56. Things were speeding up in Christ's ministry; and the disciples were plunged into a steep learning curve in this week's lesson. Thankfully, their teacher was called The Good Shepherd, because things got hard very fast. Their first mission went well; but then they were challenged by the needs of a hungry multitude and another violent storm on the sea — this time without their Master in their boat! How would they respond to the lessons they were given? With belief or unbelief?To learn more about Michele or to support this international ministry please visit https://intheword.com

In this compelling and urgent conversation, Bryan Dawson of 1819 News sits down with Daily Wire culture reporter and bestselling author Megan Basham to discuss her explosive book, Shepherds for Sale: How Evangelical Leaders Traded the Truth for a Leftist Agenda. With sharp insight and meticulous research, Basham exposes how secular progressive forces have infiltrated seminaries, evangelical institutions, and churches across America—not merely to influence theology, but to reshape the political and cultural convictions of millions of Christians. Basham lays out a troubling pattern: left-wing organizations, including those funded by George Soros and the Hewlett Foundation, are funneling money through “evangelical” front groups like the Evangelical Immigration Table—entities that appear grassroots but are in fact top-down influence campaigns. Their goal? To convince believers that leftist policies on immigration, climate, race, and even vaccine mandates are not just political stances, but biblical imperatives. Dawson and Basham also explore the downfall of prominent evangelical leaders like Russell Moore, once a conservative icon, now seen as a mouthpiece for progressive causes. From promoting amnesty under the guise of “loving your neighbor” to urging COVID-19 vaccinations as a Christian duty, Moore's trajectory serves as a case study in how influence, prestige, and foundation money have corrupted evangelical leadership. Basham explains how even well-meaning pastors are unwittingly swept into these networks, signing onto statements and participating in campaigns that subtly (or overtly) push progressive policy—often without full awareness of who's funding or driving the agenda. The discussion is a wake-up call to American Christians. The church, as Basham and Dawson argue, is the final obstacle to full-scale cultural conquest by the radical left. If believers don't recognize the war being waged within their own walls, they may lose not just theological clarity, but national influence and moral credibility. This episode calls for spiritual vigilance, cultural awareness, and a bold return to biblical truth in an age of compromise.
