Ep 319 | Piper, Policies, Personality & Priorities Oct 28, 2020

Show notes

Today we offer a rebuttal to some of those in the Christian community who argue that a vote for Trump isn't any better than a vote for Biden, because the arrogance of Trump is just as sinful as the dishonesty of Biden. There's just one problem with that idea — Trump's arrogance isn't going to get any unborn children killed in the womb.

Ep 318 | Trump vs. Biden 2020: Health Care Oct 26, 2020

Show notes

It's the last episode in our election series before the big day on Nov. 3. This time, we break down the health care situation in America and the two presidential candidates' positions on it. The legacy of "Obamacare" is on the line, and Americans will have a chance to voice their opinion on it through the ballot. One side wants to lessen government involvement in health care, while the other wants to build upon Obamacare to eventually obliterate private insurance.

Ep 315 | Trump vs. Biden 2020: Climate Change Oct 19, 2020

Show notes

Right off the bat, we need to address the controversy over the New York Post's reporting on Hunter Biden. If the facts check out, it looks like there's some (more) proof of Joe Biden's dishonesty. Then, it's time to get into the issue of climate change: Which candidate is more serious about being a conscientious steward of the land, and which one is leveraging apocalyptic language to grow the federal government? And, as Christians, we take a look at the changing climate through a biblical lens.

Ep 312 | Trump vs. Biden 2020: Education Oct 12, 2020

Show notes

First we break down misconceptions surrounding what it really means to be "pro-all life," explaining why being anti-death penalty, pro-gun control, pro-social justice, and pro-open borders doesn't make a person pro-life. Then we examine the differences between Joe Biden's and Donald Trump's education platforms. Joe Biden and the Democrats are explicitly anti-school choice — a position that disproportionately negatively affects poor and special-needs children. Donald Trump's administration has invested millions into ensuring families have the ability to choose the education that's best for their kids.
