THE ELECTION INTEGRITY EMERGENCY (full special) Oct 19, 2024

For years, the losing side has challenged the validity of the election results. Democrats did it in 2016 when Trump won, and Trump himself did it as Joe Biden took office in 2020. We are constantly told that the 2020 election was the most secure in the history of our country, but still, many have concerns about some of the practices that were implemented, especially with the 2024 election around the corner. In this special, Mike Slater will speak to Liz Harrington and Ben Weingarten regarding current election integrity concerns. Mike then wraps up the show with RNC Chairman Michael Whatley, who explains what the GOP is doing to quell those concerns.

Kamala on Call Her Daddy Oct 08, 2024

THE NEW WAR ON TERROR Sep 07, 2024

The Patriot Act was designed with the intent to go after foreign terrorists.

THE WAR ON FREE SPEECH Aug 24, 2024

The first amendment comes first for a reason. America's founders understood the value of free speech, which is now under attack both in the United States and abroad. In the past decade, Democrats have wished for the government and private companies to silence political dissent. Elon Musk buying X was a blow to the censorship complex, but the fight remains. Want to get an idea of what can happen without free speech? Look no further than the United Kingdom, where Tommy Robinson has learned first-hand what it's like to be silenced. Robinson is Mike Slater's guest on this exclusive special, as is Jeffrey A. Tucker of the Brownstone Institute.

A famous line from Ben Shapiro is "Facts don't care about your feelings." I disagree. I wish it were that easy to convince people of the truth. If only we could just share the facts and voila, we win. The reality is; feelings matter. And this is fine. We can use emotion to help people see the truth just as much as they can use feelings to convince people of lies. We just can't get frustrated.

The Bible as Hate Speech: Be The Church Jun 09, 2023

Morning Motivation: The Bible as Hate Speech: Be The Church

You can't just say you're a Christian. You're called to do more. William Wilberforce wasn't silenced when he was attacked. We need to have that same conviction.

The Bible as Hate Speech: Joseph of Arimathea Jun 08, 2023

A prominent and rich member of the council that put Jesus to death "did not consent" to his murder, but didn't try to stop it either. Why not? For the same reasons so many people are silenced today. There's nothing new under the sun.

The Bible As Hate Speech: Did Not See Fit Jun 07, 2023

Morning Motivation: The Bible As Hate Speech: Did Not See Fit

It was a very simple reason why God gave us over to a debased mind. The only way we'll make sure we don't fall for the lies is if we have a conviction. A conviction like only 1/6 of pastors in Germany had in 1935. Will you be in that minority when it happens here?

The Bible as Hate Speech: Hitler as Lord Jun 06, 2023

Morning Motivation: The Bible as Hate Speech: Hitler as Lord

Hitler told Pastor Niemueller, "You worry about your sermons." Meaning, "You keep your silly church in your box, and I'll focus on the important things in life." We know what the important things really are. But do we believe it enough to live it?

The Bible as Hate Speech: Vulgar and Violent Jun 05, 2023

Morning Motivation: The Bible as Hate Speech: Vulgar and Violent

A Utah school district has banned the Bible because it's vulgar and violent. Remember: the ultimate goal of all of the progressive movements we see, whether it's LGBTQIA+ or BLM, is to destroy the Christian Church. The causes we see them fight for are mere means to their ultimate goal.

I sat down to share some thoughts on DeSantis' faith, but I want to save that because listening to DeSantis's launch and people's reactions to it made me angry.

Crazy Culture of Emotion May 23, 2023

It's always Pride Month, it seems. How did we get to this point in our culture? Where trans fake nuns are honored at baseball games and men are sexually dancing in front of little girls?

Christianity Is a Fight. Name The Enemy. May 16, 2023

Morning Motivation: Christianity Is a Fight. Name The Enemy.

One of the fundamental mistakes of the "War On Terror" is we refused to name the enemy. You can't win if you can't identify who you are fighting against. It's the same with most Christians. They think Christianity is a fun cruise ship. They don't know it's a way. So who is the enemy?

MORNING MOTIVATION

True Christianity is a fight. Our modern culture tells us the greatest virtue is to be nice, and you can't have enemies because that's mean and no one is wrong about anything because "who are you to judge, stop being so mean." But if you don't think Christianity is a fight, the enemy has you right where he wants you.

RENEWING AMERICA'S FAITH IN GOD Jan 14, 2023

Is there a spiritual awakening ongoing in America? Recently, when Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin suffered cardiac arrest in front of millions, the United States turned to faith.

SPECIAL: The Book of Exodus Dec 11, 2022

Can the second book of the Bible, Exodus, serve as inspiration for those of us feeling like slaves to current day tyrants? We need not itemize our current plagues, as they are now part of daily life.

Exodus describes how the People of Israel were freed from the bonds of centuries of slavery in Egypt. Moses was commissioned by God, who spoke to him in the form of the burning bush and gave him the colossal assignment to lead the Israelites to freedom. Repeatedly in Exodus, we witness Moses imploring Pharaoh, "Let my people go."

During this show, Mike Slater and his special guests explore how the story of Exodus can serve as inspiration for those of us feeling like slaves to tyrants.

Mike Slater and his special guests explore the question...can God lead us to freedom again? We pray history will repeat itself and that He will show us the way to free ourselves from the bonds of modern-day servitude.
