E244: Atheist at 8, Gang Leader at 10: Ruslan's Path to Jesus w/Ruslan KD | Lila Rose Show Aug 29, 2025

Show notes

When the disciples argued over who would be the greatest (Luke 9:46), Jesus did not rebuke their ambition. He redirected it toward service and heaven.

That same lesson shapes YouTube creator Ruslan KD’s new book, Godly Ambition: Unlocking the Full Potential of Your Time, Talent, and Treasure. From a childhood marked by fatherlessness, atheism, and crime, to finding Christ and purpose as an adult, Ruslan shows how ambition can be transformed into a God-given gift.

In this episode, discover how to recognize your gifts, harness your potential, and live out the passion God has placed on your heart.

E243: 1-in-4 Americans? A Chief Exorcist's Warning and Guidance w/Msgr Rossetti | Lila Rose Show Aug 26, 2025

Show notes

Can dogs sense demons? How did a possessed person know an exorcist’s childhood nickname? And what should you do when plagued by obsessive negative thoughts?

In this episode, we sit down with Monsignor Rossetti—Chief Exorcist of the Archdiocese of Washington and a licensed psychologist—who brings rare insight into both the spiritual and psychological dimensions of these mysteries. This conversation will challenge the way you understand the spiritual realm, especially in light of God’s omniscience and omnipotence compared to the limited, deceptive powers of the devil. You’ll walk away with practical tools for spiritual warfare and a renewed confidence in the ultimate triumph of good over evil—an encouraging truth we too easily forget.

E242: Grit, Grace, and God's Guidance: Navigating Entrepreneurship and Motherhood w/Sarah Gabel Seifert | Lila Rose Show Aug 22, 2025

Show notes

One night, Sarah Gabel Seifert fell asleep and had a dream that would change the course of her life. She found herself in a factory in a war-torn land, stumbling into a room filled with empty cribs and women on operating tables. When she awoke, she knew: God was calling her to a mission. Years later, that mission took an unexpected form when He placed on her heart the idea to found a pro-life diaper company. Today, Sarah and her husband are pioneers in a new marketplace where consumers intentionally choose products from companies that uphold, rather than oppose, their values.

In this episode, you’ll hear Sarah’s powerful story of radical surrender, how to recognize the mission God is crafting uniquely for you, and how motherhood has deepened her inspiration and fueled her ability to pursue her entrepreneurial dreams.

E241: Can Islam and Christianity Coexist in America? w/Martin and Millicent Sedra | Lila Rose Show Aug 19, 2025

Show notes

Martin Sedra grew up in Egypt as the son of a Christian pastor, where preaching had to be hidden and converting from Islam could mean death. He saw God’s protection firsthand when his brothers narrowly escaped terrorists enraged by his father’s ministry. Now, Martin and his wife Millicent travel the world warning that Islam’s core beliefs, though distinct from peaceful Muslims, are incompatible with Christianity and Western freedoms. In this powerful conversation, they reveal what is coming, how to stand firm in the face of growing anti-Christian hostility, and why an unapologetic pro-life stance is essential.

E240: The Science of Love, Sex, and Thriving Relationships w/Adam Lane Smith | Lila Rose Show Aug 15, 2025

Show notes

Why do some mothers struggle to bond with their babies and slip into depression? What can you do when the romance has faded and your significant other withdraws every time you try to express your needs or connect? And why does premarital sex often sabotage long-term love?

Surprisingly, these issues share the same root and the same solution. Enter Adam Lane Smith, former therapist, relationship coach, and pioneer in applying attachment theory to everyday relationships. His mission is to help one billion people become securely attached, starting with you.

Adam explains why so many people have trouble forming deep, lasting bonds. He breaks down the biochemical forces that drive connection, with oxytocin and vasopressin as the key players, and shows you how to work with them for stronger relationships. He also helps you develop compassion for those whose childhood wounds make intimacy difficult and gives practical steps to rekindle passion and trust.

Watch this episode for eye-opening insights that will take all your relationships to the next level.

E239: Beyond the Burka: A Muslim Women's Journey to Jesus w/Nikki Kingsley | Lila Rose Show Aug 12, 2025

Show notes

From her balcony in Pakistan, Nikki Kingsley imagined ending it all. Trapped in an arranged marriage, confined to her home, and living in a culture where she could not leave the house without permission, she felt utterly hopeless. Something had to change.

After a daring escape to America, Nikki turned to Allah for comfort and spiritual strength. But her journey took an unexpected turn when she began receiving locutions from Jesus and Mary, messages that revealed the faith she had been raised in did not fully reflect the depth and reality of God’s love.

In this powerful testimony, you will hear the extraordinary story of a woman who risked everything to follow Christ. Her testimony offers both a powerful witness to the truth present in the Christian faith and a sobering look at the unseen challenges faced by many Muslim women around the world.

E238: I Surrendered My Fertility to God: Here's What Happened w/Chrissy Horton | Lila Rose Show Aug 08, 2025

Show notes

From postpartum recovery and sleepless nights to six weeks without intimacy, many of us step into marriage unprepared for the realities of motherhood. Add to that the emotional rollercoaster of discerning when to welcome another child only to face unexpected pregnancies--it's clear this journey isn’t always tidy.

In this episode, I sit down with Chrissy Horton, content creator and mother of six, for an honest, no-holds-barred conversation about life without contraception, the joy and chaos of raising a large family, and the adventure that unfolds when you surrender your fertility to God. Spoiler alert: the sex life? It gets better. We also unpack the cultural biases against big families: where they come from, why they persist, and why they’re flat-out wrong. It’s a road marked with sacrifice, but also with beauty, laughter, and unforgettable moments.
