Dr. Gerson Moreno-Riaño, president of Cornerstone University, joins him on why so few campuses will say that out loud.They also discuss a Nov. 8 boycott ride in Philadelphia aimed at six Jewish-owned restaurants on the eve of Kristallnacht (no property damage reported), students who grew up after the Iron Curtain and said they did not know communism's evils, and Cornerstone's core: Christian worldview, the American experience, and market intelligence.

#238 - Michael Clary Nov 06, 2026

Show notes

Southern Baptist pastor D. Michael Clary talks with Eric about his new book, Loser Theology: Why the Weak Will Not Inherit the Earth, and the passive, retreating faith he says has trained many Christians to lose.Clary explains why Jesus said the meek, not the weak, will inherit the earth, and why meekness means strength under control. He also covers what "turn the other cheek" does and doesn't mean (including whether a Christian may defend his home), the difference between real humility and a performance of humility, and why he says the biggest tell about a pastor is what he won't say. Eric adds George Washington as a model of true meekness.D. Michael Clary is founder and lead pastor of Christ the King Church in Fort Thomas, Kentucky. Loser Theology is available from Canon Press.

#235 - Ed Martin Nov 02, 2026

Show notes

An Uber driver who wouldn't turn off the music, a viral AI video of President Trump 'unveiling' a portrait of Jesus that never happened, and former U.S. Pardon Attorney Ed Martin on what he says he found in Jack Smith's emails. First, the ride to the airport, and why Eric prayed for that driver the whole way. Then a conservative friend's post that Eric calls antisemitic, and the "Judas" text that ended the friendship. And an AI video, posted in April 2026 and still circulating, of President Trump pulling back a curtain to reveal a portrait of Jesus. It never happened: the real footage, from a March 2025 Fox News tour, shows the Declaration of Independence. "If you have to lie and play that game, you know you're not serving Jesus." Co-host Chris Himes adds his own run-in with what he calls spiritual warfare, and Eric explains why Jesus is the only answer to real evil.Ed Martin, former director of the Justice Department's Weaponization Working Group and former interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, left the Justice Department in August. He talks about the 6 or 7 years he worked alongside Phyllis Schlafly, the January 6 defendants he represented pro bono, why he says "we got to finish the job," and what he says he wants for Lisa Monaco and Jack Smith. He also talks about the D.C. Bar charges against him and his new nonprofit, the Mercy Project, launching Dec. 8, to help ordinary Americans seek clemency.Eric's new book, Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World, is available wherever books are sold.

#234 - Chuck Swindoll Oct 30, 2026

Show notes

Chuck Swindoll has been in ministry for 62 years, but as a boy he could barely put a sentence together. "One of my earliest memories is my mother telling me that I was a mistake," he tells Eric. By junior high he stuttered so badly he wanted to hide. Then Richard Nieme, a drama and speech teacher who had just come to Milby High School in Houston from New York, tapped him on the shoulder at his locker: "Charles, I want you in my debate class." His first response was, "Me?" Within six months he was putting sentences together, and he played the lead in the senior play "without a stammer, stutter or fear."Now Pastor Chuck Swindoll talks with Eric about his new memoir, Awakened by Grace: The Life Story of Chuck Swindoll. He covers the Marine Corps years on Okinawa, where a mentor told him, "Of course you're a natural"; how Dallas Theological Seminary accepted him on probation and later asked him to be its fourth president; how Insight for Living began; why "the laughter should have never left the pulpit"; and his 71-year marriage to Cynthia: "I tell her I love her every night."Chuck Swindoll is the founder of Insight for Living, the founding pastor of Stonebriar Community Church in Frisco, Texas, and a former president of Dallas Theological Seminary. Awakened by Grace (Thomas Nelson) is available wherever books are sold. Learn more at insight.org.

#232 - Dr. Mark Christian Oct 28, 2026

Show notes

Dr. Mark Christian grew up in Egypt as the firstborn son of a respected physician and religious leader. He was leading prayers in mosques by age nine and later led prayers in Mecca. He studied hard to prove his faith was true, and the more he studied, the more questions he had. Asking them, he says, made him a threat to his own father. In his memoir, The Apostate: My Search for Truth, he tells what happened next: a call at dawn to his father's old medical office, a fire trap behind the door, and the stumble on a rug that he and Eric believe saved his life. Then, in the back of an ambulance, came the decision that changed everything: "I will follow Jesus, God of love."Eric was handed this book at an event and couldn't put it down. Here's why. And if you know someone who is quietly asking hard questions about their faith, Eric says, share this so they know they're not crazy.Dr. Mark Christian (a pen name) is the founder of Global Faith Institute in Omaha, Nebraska, and the president of the Truth and Freedom Foundation. The Apostate: My Search for Truth (Fidelis Publishing) is available at bookstores and Amazon. Global Faith: globalfaith.org.
