My Catholic University Required Me To Watch BDSM P*rn To Graduate w/Naomi Best | Lila Rose Show

Naomi Best enrolled in Santa Clara University’s Counseling Psychology MA to help people. But when she began the required Human Sexuality course, she was stunned: graphic BDSM videos, public discussions of intimate sexual history, and an 8-page paper detailing her own experiences—including masturbation. Naomi refused to complete the coursework on moral and religious grounds. Despite requesting a religious exemption—granted to Muslim women—the university denied her appeal. In this episode, we unco...

E220: Transition Promised A New Life: Now I Regret It w/Katie Coblentz | Lila Rose Show

Katie Coblentz grew up a tomboy—Spider-Man, catch with dad, boys’ clothes. As a teen, she felt like a misfit and found fleeting belonging in the LGBT community. In college, YouTube videos of joyful ‘trans men’ promised freedom from her anxiety and pain. She transitioned—testosterone, surgery, a new name. The illusion worked. Until one day, she looked in the mirror… and saw a woman. That moment unraveled everything. Katie began the hard road of detransition and now speaks out against the trans id...

Have you ever prayed, hoping to hear from God—and heard nothing? Maybe you’ve thought God only speaks rarely, and only through dramatic signs.

E217: Are Librarians Grooming Your Kids? What Parents Needs to Know w/Karen England | Lila Rose Show

Dinosaurs, owls… and condoms? Yep, those are just a few of the topics sitting side by side on the shelves at your local library. Today I’m joined by “Kitchen Table Activist” Karen England to expose the graphic, sexually explicit content being snuck into school and public libraries—often disguised as kid-friendly cartoons. These books aren’t approved by parents, but by unelected librarians pushing content that goes far beyond what’s appropriate for children. Watch this episode, get informed, and ...

Fr. Robert Spitzer is back—and this time, we’re talking UFOs. Newly declassified footage from Navy pilots shows unidentified craft that defy known physics. Could this point to intelligent alien life? If so—do they have souls? Free will? Original sin? Would they need salvation? Baptism? As a priest and expert in the philosophy of science, Fr.

E213: Doctor Blows Whistle On Child Transgender Surgeries w/Dr Haim

When Texas Attorney General declared that transgender medical interventions on minors could be child abuse, Texas Children's Hospital claimed it shut down its program. But Dr. Eithan Haim, then a surgical resident, discovered they were secretly implanting puberty blockers. He blew the whistle—and it sparked real change: Texas passed a law banning these procedures on minors. But the story didn’t end there. The Biden DOJ targeted him with lawfare, trying to punish and silence him. Facing a $2 mill...

Lee Strobel was a hard-nosed journalist and proud atheist living for pleasure—until his wife’s sudden conversion sent him on a mission to disprove Christianity once and for all. But the deeper he dug into the historical record—the eyewitnesses, the empty tomb, the early creeds—the more the evidence pointed not to myth, but to fact. In this episode, Strobel shares what shook his skepticism and how his newest book uncovers chilling accounts of angel sightings and Muslim conversions through superna...

Too many couples are ready to start a family—only to discover unexplained infertility and dead-end solutions. What does conventional medicine offer?

How Early Christianity Outlasted a Hostile Roman Empire w/Voice of Reason | Lila Rose Show (BONUS)

What was Rome really like at the time of Christ? It was a culture of death—where women were silenced, babies were discarded, and power ruled without mercy. Then came Christianity, flipping the empire upside down. Through brutal martyrdom, early Christians introduced a moral revolution that shattered pagan values and sparked the very idea of human dignity. They didn’t just preach love—they freed slaves and redefined civilization. The wild part? The Roman world looks a lot like ours today. This ep...

E208: Tradition, Scripture, and Church Unity w/Keith Nester | Lila Rose Show

My guest today is Keith Nester, a former pastor who spent over 20 years in ministry—until one verse changed everything. When he heard Jesus say in Matthew 26:26, “This is my body,” he knew it wasn’t symbolic. Embracing that truth meant losing his ministry, his income, and nearly his marriage. He resisted at first, but as liberalism overtook his denomination, he realized only Church tradition could stand firm. Today, Keith helps others find their way home. His mission: unite Christians in truth a...

Does the soul survive death—or is consciousness just brain chemistry? In this mind-bending episode, Father Spitzer takes us into the eerie world where science meets the supernatural.

Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters, Emily flips the script with a bold new book written from the perspective of a senior demon training a junior one—exposing how the enemy targets women with lies about their worth, their bodies, their relationships, and their calling.

E201: Ancient Faith & Modern Persecution: Orthodox Christianity w/Fr Josiah Trenham

What’s it like to be an Orthodox Christian in Syria? Father Josiah Trenham shares powerful stories of faith under fire. Over 12 years ago, Sunni jihadists kidnapped the Archbishop. Today’s Archbishop faces no less danger. When the leader of ISIS passed through Aleppo, he sent a chilling message: "I'll have your head." The Archbishop’s bold reply? "Come and take it—I’m not leaving my people." The courage of Syrian Christians under persecution is both inspiring and convicting—a sharp contrast to t...
