Good news in Canada as mental illness excluded from MAID Oct 09, 2026

Show notes

Canada has stepped back from expanding medical assistance in dying to people whose sole underlying condition is mental illness, after officials concluded that suicidal intent cannot reliably be distinguished from a request for MAID. Yet proposed legislation could simultaneously broaden access through advance requests for people with conditions such as dementia. The debate exposes a deeper question about suffering and hope: when circumstances may not improve, what gives a person reason to keep living? Christians have been entrusted with a hope that does not depend on present circumstances—and an opportunity to share it.

NFL quarterback isn’t sure America landed on the Moon Oct 08, 2026

Show notes

Patriots quarterback Drake Maye made headlines after admitting he’s skeptical that Americans landed on the moon, reviving a conspiracy theory that persists despite decades of evidence. His comments illustrate how even substantial evidence may not persuade someone determined to doubt. The same challenge surrounds Christianity’s central claim: that Jesus truly died and rose from the dead. Historical arguments can answer many objections, but ultimately the resurrection confronts us with a more personal question—if we believe it happened, how should that truth change the way we live?

Plague in Russia and the third anniversary of October 7 Oct 07, 2026

Show notes

Concerns about pneumonic plague are drawing international attention after a researcher at a Siberian lab died from an unexplained illness, though health officials currently say the broader public risk appears low. Meanwhile, the third anniversary of the October 7 Hamas attack offers another sobering reminder that the actions of a few can bring consequences for countless others. Both stories point toward a deeper reality about our fallen world: human choices matter. For Christians, the question is whether we will rely on our own will or surrender it to the God who gives us power to choose what matters most.

Prominent televangelist Jim Bakker dies at 86 Oct 06, 2026

Show notes

Televangelist Jim Bakker died Monday at age eighty-six, leaving behind a complicated legacy of influential Christian broadcasting, scandal, prison, and a return to ministry. His story raises a broader question about how we view and treat other people: as individuals to love or as means to our own ends. Living with sacrificial integrity requires more than knowing what is right—it requires a transformation that enables us to put others before ourselves even when doing so comes at a cost.

“Encore Years” and the path to our highest purpose Oct 05, 2026

Show notes

Over the weekend, I read an article that I found deeply significant. In it, cultural commentator David Brooks focuses on finding meaning in older life, though I found his reflections relevant to all of us at any age. God often uses people in what Brooks calls their “Encore Years” to change history. And living with that end in mind is the best way to fulfill Christ’s calling for your life today as well.

Are you “doomscrolling” or “bloomscrolling”? Oct 02, 2026

Show notes

Doomscrolling can take a measurable toll on our minds and bodies, prompting some therapists to recommend “bloomscrolling”—intentionally seeking out encouraging news instead. One hopeful story comes from global Christianity, which continues to grow and shift dramatically toward Africa and Asia. As believers around the world become an increasingly diverse body of Christ, their faith offers more than a welcome counterweight to discouraging headlines. It also raises a practical question: How can we join what God is doing through faithful choices in our own lives today?

Attempted hijacking called a “jihadist terror attack” Oct 01, 2026

Show notes

A co-pilot allegedly tried to crash a flight carrying more than 170 passengers to Israel before the captain, passengers, and other pilots intervened. The incident illustrates a sobering truth: ideas have consequences, and bad ideas can have victims. That principle is increasingly relevant as AI developers turn to religious leaders for help shaping the moral behavior of advanced systems. But if society no longer agrees on an objective standard of morality, whose definition of “good” should guide AI—or us?

AI “doomers” might buy remote islands or desert bunkers Sep 30, 2026

Show notes

President Trump launched America.gov, an AI-powered portal for federal services, as government and technology leaders continue debating how to manage increasingly powerful AI systems. Meanwhile, OpenAI scrapped the release of a new model after safety concerns surfaced during testing. Whether AI poses an existential threat or simply adds another layer of uncertainty to everyday life, the future can leave us searching for direction. But before deciding which path to take, there’s a more fundamental question: Who determines where we’re going?

The cost of choosing convenience over community Sep 29, 2026

Show notes

A new book argues that modern convenience may be costing us community, encouraging us to choose the “friction” of interacting with others even when easier options exist. But convenience tests more than our relationships—it can also expose the gap between what we say we believe and what we are willing to sacrifice to live accordingly. Whether the issue is morality, evangelism, or private temptation, conviction becomes harder when obedience carries a personal cost. So where do Christians find the strength to practice what we profess?

Jesus named “influencer of the year” in Sweden Sep 28, 2026

Show notes

Signs of Christian revival are emerging in some unexpected places, from young people in secular Sweden and rising adult baptisms in France to Princeton students reasoning their way from atheism to faith. At the same time, America is becoming increasingly diverse politically, culturally, and ethnically, raising an old question with new urgency: What can truly unite so many different people? For Christians, the answer begins not with erasing those differences but with centering our lives on the same King.
