God’s design of male and female is a beautiful one. We were created in the image of God to function differently — but we are of equal worth in the eyes of our Creator. God has given us a clear chain of command in Scripture, starting with God the Father. When we do not honor God’s clear chain of authority, anarchy results. Today, we’re looking at creation and how God has given us different roles from the beginning. We are called to humility as men and women under authority, submitted to our head,...

What is the role of women in the church? Can they be pastors? If not, why not? Can women teach theology at all? What does the Bible mean when it says women are to be “silent” in church?

Climate change. The World Economic Forum's push to make sure "have nothing and are happy about it." Earthquakes. Wars and Rumors of Wars. How is it possible for a Christian to live in times such as these and experience peace? Because the Bible declares that while the earth remains, God is in control. How much does a scientist know compared with God? Nothing! Put your trust in God — Let God be God, and live in peace, knowing that He is in complete control. SHOW NOTES...

More than ever, high-school students need teaching that challenges them to think about whether the founding ideals of this country are worth preserving and inspires them to act upon their conclusion. Who are we kidding? A lot of adults need it too! My friend Mike Farris is joining me today to talk about how we can help our circle of influence understand America’s founding principles, the mechanics of government and lawmaking, and the Constitution that makes our system of government possible.

Oregon's Bold (AKA FOOLISH) decision to decriminalize drugs is backfiring, Hunter Biden's best friend set to testify against him, and the Knesset has moved sharply away from the radical left. Turns out, the left ruins everything it touches — but God's way brings life. SHOW NOTES

What's up with the Methodist Church ordaining gay pastors? Can a Christian recite the Pledge of Allegiance—and what does the Bible say about church membership? I'll be addressing these questions and commenting on an alarming and un-American action being taken by some local Republican party leaders to silence voices during a primary in order to push one candidate to the front. Will it work? I think not. During happy hour, I'm answering your VIP emails, giving updates (and pictures!) on our move t...

We sure don’t start out looking like much, and much like a jeweler does, God performs His handiwork and shapes us into beautiful works of art created to bring Him glory. Diamonds are a status symbol in America, but they’re mentioned in the Bible a number of times. I have a special friend from Israel joining me today to share some of their significance and what we can learn from them. SHOW NOTES

Have you ever noticed that bad news sells? It’s true! It sells magazines, and it elicits clicks on the Internet. The Bible has a lot to say about where we’re supposed to fix our eyes in times of trouble. We can have hope because God is a refuge for his people! A sure foundation in times of trouble. SHOW NOTES

By now, many of you have seen the documentary on the Duggar family, "Shiny Happy People." As a woman who grew up under spiritual abuse, I am glad to see any form of abuse unearthed and exposed. Rules without relationship injure people, and the legalistic way in which Gothard and others like him control people using the Bible as their excuse to do so is wrong. However, I believe this was the wrong way to expose it. This documentary was salivating at the chance to give Christians stones to throw a...

Recently, my husband made me aware of a teaching that is gaining steam among some of my fellow Christians. It's NOT that women can't teach men... it's that they can't teach other women theology. As you can imagine, I have a few thoughts on this and I'll be answering a question about whether or not Christians are still under OT law. SHOW NOTES

The headlines can be overwhelming—and we've all seen them. On Independence Day, a Federal judge issued a stinging rebuke of Joe Biden's handling of the pandemic—because he silenced dissent and free speech, violating the first amendment. Then on Wednesday, we learned that cocaine has been found in the West Wing of the White House. When will character matter again for our leaders? SHOW NOTES

Doesn't the Bible direct women to submit to their husbands? Today, June Hunt, founder of Hope for the Heart, joins me to talk about why women are never called to submit to abuse.

During Happy Hour I am sharing a little of my own experience with abuse and domestic violence. SHOW NOTES

You guys hear me talk a lot about 501(c)(3)s, and a listener asked for some specifics. What does that status really mean, and is it a blessing or a hindrance? Or maybe both? We see churches these days hide behind it and choose not to address difficult issues in the name of not being “political.” But what is really required to maintain that status, and is it becoming an idol? Let’s talk about it. SHOW NOTES

This year’s “all ages” Seattle Pride Parade included something you don’t often see in public: adult men on bicycles wearing helmets but no pants—in front of children. This was shocking in and of itself but the more shocking thing is that no one complained. This is a battle for the hearts and minds of a new generation—and whether or not we win it will depend on how committed God's people are to being salt and light. SHOW NOTES...

"Christianity and politics don't mix." We've heard this false narrative from our elected officials and from our pulpits for generations. The result of this misguided approach is obvious: Politics is now a stronghold of "spiritual forces of evil in heavenly places." We can't see when angels and demons are battling against each other—if we did it would absolutely change our posture toward prayer and we would take our place on the battlefield. Our Constitution was written for moral people. The chur...
