Discussing Gender, Masculinity and Femininity with Your Kids | Hillary Morgan Ferrer | Ep. 285 Jun 20, 2026

Show notes

We hear all the time that gender is a spectrum, but the Bible says otherwise. Male and female are the only genders God created. However, what IS a spectrum is masculinity and femininity. In this episode, I'm chatting with Hillary Morgan Ferrer on how to help our kids understand these topics and giving you lots of tips and advice on guiding that conversation.

None of us WANTS to bring this up to our kids, but we HAVE to bring this up to our kids, because if we don't, someone else will.

Motherhood Is Not a Waste of Your Life | Kimberly Thomson | Ep. 284 Jun 11, 2026

Show notes

The lovely and fast-rising Granny's Got Greens from IG is joining me today for an encouraging Titus 2 conversation about all the hot topics of motherhood. We cover how:

- motherhood isn't a waste of your life

- consistent discipline early on is the key to less discipline down the road

- train and obey are not "dog words" - they are for parenting

- you need to be very picky about your children's friends

- the tasks of motherhood ARE the relationship, especially in the early years

- trust is built through these seemingly small and mundane tasks - do not discount them!

Confessions of a Homemaker: From sloth and sin to sanctification | Katie Bonnema | Ep. 281 May 14, 2026

Show notes

Have you ever realized the patterns of your life reflect more attitudes of sin and selfishness than sanctification and being set apart to the Lord? I have. And so has Katie Bonnema.

In this episode, Katie shares her story of realizing she needed to make changes to how she operated as a homemaker, wife and mother. We both discuss how we have involved our children in the keeping and maintenance of our homes and the drastic difference this makes in our every day as well as our children's character (and our own!)

Eastern Orthodox Church: Tradition vs. Gospel | Paul Dan | Ep. 280 May 07, 2026

Show notes

In this episode I discuss with apologist Paul Dan the influence of neoplatonic thought in the Eastern Orthodox church as well as the elevation of tradition and church fathers to equal authority as the holy scriptures. Mr. Dan grew up in the reformed Eastern Orthodox church that had been impacted by a true gospel reformation years prior and he has an intimate understanding of their teachings.

Is the Eastern Orthodox Church Really the Church Founded by Jesus and his Apostles? | Pastor Samuel Farag | Ep. 279 Apr 29, 2026

Show notes

Eastern Orthodoxy considers itself the true church founded by Jesus Chris and his apostles in 33 A.D.. It holds that it has maintained the unbroken, apostolic faith for over 2,000 years, tracing its roots to the early Church mentioned in the New Testament. But is this true? And what differences does Eastern Orthodoxy teach compared to protestant Christianity?

Is our faith really "brand new" and only a Western, "post-reformation" interpretation of scripture?

You won't want to miss this.

"Woe to you, when all people speak well of you" | False Prophet James Talarico's Brand of Fradulent Christianity | Blake Bozarth | Ep. 278 Apr 21, 2026

Show notes

James Talarico's brand of Christianity is being touted the world over as "a loving response to Christian nationalism" - but IS IT?

We evaluate the ideas that undergird his slick sayings and hold them up to what the Bible actually teaches.

Taking Women Out of the Home and Into the Workforce: Was It a Win? | Suzanne Venker | Ep. 277 Apr 14, 2026

Show notes

Women have been planning their lives all wrong.

We've been taught to plan our lives around a career - even as Christian young women! "What if your husband dies?" "What if you don't get married?"

These are valid questions and possibilities, of course, but does that mean we should plan our lives around these things and orient our choices (that affect decades of our life!) around them?

What's important to you at 22 won't be important to you at 32 or 42. Build a life that makes it work for the long haul, not just a finite 10 year period that then leaves you stuck in a career you can't escape to pay off debt you don't want and miss out on the kids you can't get back.

Is Easter Just a Feeling? Raising Kids Who Know the Truth | Elizabeth Urbanowicz | Ep. 276 Apr 02, 2026

Show notes

As culture reduces Easter to pastel optimism and vague messages of renewal, how can parents ground their children in the historical reality of the resurrection? This conversation helps families distinguish between cultural spirituality and the central truth of Christianity.

We discuss talking with your kids about topics like:

Would Good Friday Still Be Good without Easter?

How can we be sure Jesus really rose from the dead?

Is it too traumatic for kids to hear about Jesus' death on the cross?

Is Easter pagan? Why or Why not?
