He Gets Us: Who are they and why are they spending $20 million for 90 seconds of Super Bowl airtime? Feb 10, 2023

Show notes

“How did the greatest love story in history become known as a hate group?” Such questions motivate those behind the ministry called He Gets Us and, if you haven't seen their ads or billboards yet, the Super Bowl this Sunday night will offer the perfect chance to change that. But what is He Gets Us and why do they plan on investing a billion dollars in such campaigns over the next three years?

What we’re learning about China’s surveillance balloons Feb 09, 2023

Show notes

According to American intelligence officials, China’s spy balloon program is part of a global surveillance effort to collect information on the military capabilities of countries around the world. Such a brazen act reveals the fact that laws do not have the intrinsic power to change character. So, individually, how can we truly act morally?

Why do we watch the State of the Union address? Feb 08, 2023

Show notes

President Biden gave his State of the Union address last night. Historically, State of the Union addresses rarely affect a president’s public standing, yet millions still watch. Why? The answer is relevant far beyond last night’s speech.

Zoo lets you name a cockroach after an ex and feed it to an animal Feb 07, 2023

Show notes

For $10, the San Antonio Zoo will name a cockroach after your ex and feed it to an animal. But there are more dramatic examples of the enmity invading our culture, like the 77 percent of Americans who say our country’s partisan divide is deeper now than before the pandemic. As Christians, we are called to know Christ and make him known—but we too often settle for knowing about Christ rather than seeking to know Christ personally. How can we ensure we seek him for who he is?

“An even deadlier pandemic could soon be here” Feb 06, 2023

Show notes

The bird flu strain H5N1 has been infecting minks in Spain—unprecedented for mammals—and could signify the start of a deadlier pandemic than Covid-19. Naturally, our fight-or-flight response kicks in on hearing such news. This response has enormous spiritual implications as well.

Scientists aim to resurrect the dodo: How the power of small change can change the world Feb 03, 2023

Show notes

The old cliché that something went “the way of the dodo” could soon have a very different meaning. Scientists at Colossal Biosciences in Austin, Texas, are currently working to resurrect the bird that has become synonymous with extinction, and if your mind is trending toward Jurassic Park flashbacks as you read, you’re not too far off base. Their approach reminds us that sometimes the best way to make a big difference is by being content with incremental changes. Is the same true for Christians trying to change our culture today?

Three reasons Tom Brady’s second retirement is so unusual Feb 02, 2023

Show notes

Tom Brady retired from the NFL for the second time yesterday. It would seem that Brady was no longer satisfied with the direction of his life and career, which makes him an outlier in our society. According to Gallup, 85 percent of Americans are satisfied with their personal lives. This contrasts with only 23 percent who are satisfied with the direction of their country. What explains this wide disparity between the way we view our country and the way we view our personal lives?

Policeman resigns after suspension for post on gay marriage Feb 01, 2023

Show notes

Georgia police officer Jacob Kersey resigned from his position after being suspended for having posted a message to Facebook about his biblical stance on marriage. Kersey explained his response: “My integrity and Christian beliefs are at the core of who I am, and I will not abandon them.” His example is the opposite of what some Christians may do in succumbing to cultural pressure to privatize our faith, treating Jesus as a means to our ends—a temptation that is more subtle and attractive than we may think.
