Ep 47 | The Toxicity of Feminism

Ep 38 | Before Believing Kavanaugh's Accuser

Today we're told that unless we unconditionally believe the woman who accuses a man of sexual assault, we're misogynists. In reality, that theory is unjust.

On Tuesday, we talked about the paradox of likability as it pertains to politics and the Republican Party.

Ep 34 | The Paradox of Likability

If there's one thing conservatives generally lack, it's likability. Democrats and socialists have put forth their most affable candidates for the midterms, while Republicans are falling short, and we won't like the consequences. Likability isn't everything, though. It's a double-edged sword that must be wielded wisely. A Q&A section will end the episode.  Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ep 20 | The Myth of Self-Love

Ep 20 | The Myth of Self-Love

"You can't love others until you love yourself." "Just pursue what makes you happy." These are the ubiquitous mantras of our day, encouraging us to ditch the "bad vibes" and do whatever makes us feel good about ourselves and our lives. The problem is that's not biblical.

Ep 6 | No, Christians Aren't Called to "Social Justice"

Christians are undoubtedly commanded to do good works, but why put a secular, progressive label on what the church has been doing through the power of the gospel for centuries: caring for the weak, feeding the poor, and fighting for the oppressed? The idolatry of social justice is actually distraction from the centrality of Jesus and his death and resurrection. I explain why.

Ep 5 | The Only "Racial Reconciliation" the Church Needs is the Gospel

Ep 5 | The Only "Racial Reconciliation" the Church Needs is the Gospel

The cancer of "intersectionality" has started to seep into the church. It defines people by their individual, racial, ethnic, class, and gender oppression rather than who they are in Christ. Such worldly doctrine is antithetical to the gospel and is unnecessary for (and even counterproductive to) unity between the varying dimensions of humanity. Jesus is sufficient for that.

There are many in the church who have adopted this unpatriotic mentality as well, either because of apathy or a misinformed desire for socialism.

As the media breathlessly fawns over "March for Our Lives" gun control advocates, Second Amendment supporters are demonized as child murderers. Not only is that depiction inaccurate, it's immoral: I'm no "gun nut;" you're probably not either, and falsely slandering us as such does damage to society as a whole.
