First generation warfare is fought with sticks and stones. Brute force, kinetic damage, and show of force. Second and third generation warfare is fought with attrition, logistics, blitzkrieg, and disruption. In Afghanistan and Iraq we fought fourth generation warfare: insurgency, terrorism, and psychological operations. With each successive generation, the lines between combatants and non-combatants blur, direct attrition becomes rarer, and tricks of deception and misdirection become all the more important.
Today, we are in a 5th generation war: a war of information. Cybernetic tools such as AI, analytics, and information systems manipulate narratives, public perception, and sow discord. The line between the real and the artificial blurs, and entire battles are won without kinetic force. Information is the new oil, and the battlefield is everywhere and anywhere.
Imagine if you viewed the ascendant right—from mainstream figures like Auron MacIntyre and Candace Owens to the outskirts like Nick Fuentes and Dan Bilzerian—as an existential threat to your democratic project. You need to get ahead of it, fast. But the censorship you enjoyed during COVID is pretty much done thanks to Elon Musk, and their narratives and cause are picking up steam.
You could attempt to run containment manually and hire thousands of agents to identify threats and shut them down. But if the IRS’s track record is any indication, it's a tough job—even hunting down unpaid taxes—with a $14 billion budget and 33 district offices. You need something better, faster, and more discrete.
If we are in the 5th generation warfare, how about a private company focused on deep analytics and intelligence augmentation? And say this company had existing contracts with the CIA, DHS, NSA, the FBI, and a dozen other government agencies going back over a decade? And all the better if this company was founded by an ostensibly right-wing billionaire who personally bankrolled high-profile politicians now ascending into the highest positions in the land?
None of this is hypothetical. The company I’m describing is Palantir, named for the seeing stone in Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. It was founded by billionaire Peter Thiel, the founder of PayPal. Thiel made JD Vance a household name through mentorship, his short venture capital career, and over $15 million invested in his Senate campaign. Thiel no longer runs Palantir. Instead, eccentric co-founder & CEO Alex Karp has turned it into a deadly tool in the Middle East and Europe for antiterrorism efforts. Palantir uses massive amounts of data to find pre-crime via patterns, surveillance, and artificial intelligence.
Today we are diving into this all-important relationship between JD Vance, Peter Thiel, Ohio Governor hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy, and the MAGA coalition. Can we still trust the plan?

Yesterday, a white mother found herself at the center of a firestorm when she told off a black child after he attempted to steal items from her purse. To put it plainly, she called him the N-word and when confronted by a TikTokker who happened to be nearby, she doubled down.
The video went viral and within hours, Shiloh’s home address, social security number, school, and family were leaked to the public. She had to pull her two children out of school and is going to have to relocate. To support this, she started a fundraiser that quickly raised over $250,000 and is on track for much more. Most of the comments are in support of her, what she did, and expressing their frustration with the decay of public behavior.
Now, some are drawing the correlation to Carmelo Anthony. If we critiqued the funds raised on his behalf for terrible behavior, why are we turning around and rewarding her bad behavior?

Let’s break this story down.
MINISTRY SPONSORS:
Last year, South Korea hit a record fertility rate of just 0.72 — the lowest ever recorded in the world. Meanwhile, in the U.S., for the first time in history, women over 40 are having more children than teenagers. Global population growth isn’t just slowing; in some places, it’s collapsing. And no one seems to know how to stop it.
From Beijing to Budapest to Boston, birth rates are in freefall. Governments have tried cash bonuses, tax breaks, even subsidized minivans — but none of it’s worked. Secular progressives cheer the decline, claiming it means liberation for women and fewer carbon footprints. Meanwhile, conservatives raise alarms, arguing that civilizational continuity is impossible without children. Beneath it all, lies a deeper conflict — between a culture that celebrates self and one that honors sacrifice.
Population collapse isn’t just an economic or political problem — it’s a theological one. A culture that abandons marriage, motherhood, and the moral imagination required for building homes and futures is a culture that has already chosen death. No nation survives long when it forgets how to make families. And unless the West recovers its love for life — ordered, fruitful, and future-facing — it will not recover at all.

Today, we’ll break down the fertility crisis — what’s causing it, why conventional solutions aren’t working, and what a Christian response must look like. Let’s get into it.

No one is coming to save you.
It’s time to begin thinking about our current war as a struggle that could last a generation or longer. Like trench warfare in WWII, sometimes progress looks like advancing mere feet forward and battling for months over a single strategic objective. We have fights to win politically, culturally, personally, and ecclesiastically, and none of them will be easy.
When it comes to the political, we talk about politics frequently but we often don’t dive into the strategy, practicals, and mechanics of how politics works. Why is that? Well, in a word, localism. See, the biggest impact most of us can have is actually not at the Federal level. We only have 1 president, 50 senators, and 428 federal representatives, and billions of dollars are poured into influencing those races. But while a House Representative race may cost $2.8 million to run on average, most STATE representative races cost barely 1/10th of that.
In short, you are going to be able to have a lot more impact LOCALLY than you will NATIONALLY. You need to be thinking State, not Federal; County, not Country; and Town, not City.

Tune in today for your 2026 midterms game plan. Let’s dive in.
There is no sign that Matthew was searching for Jesus or intending to follow him. Therefore, Jesus called Matthew first, only then did Matthew choose to follow Him. No one chooses Christ; he chooses us. When Jesus said, 'Follow me,' his words carried the same divine power that healed the paralyzed man when Jesus told him, ‘Get up and walk.' Christ is the Author of salvation, and his Word is the means of salvation. For the Gospel is “the power of God for salvation” (Romans 1:16). And in Matthew’s case, the call of Christ was an effectual call. He immediately got up and followed Jesus without hesitation or delay.
Tune into the first panel of our 2025 Right Response Conference with Deace, Wolfe, Robinson, MacIntyre, Harris, and Webbon.
There are a lot of debates going on in the Christian world right now. Many of these, whether about politics, culture, or even doctrine, seem to spiral out of control because people are talking past each other. Often, the problem isn’t the facts; it’s the categories. When we confuse what belongs to the individual versus the group, the gospel versus ethics, or the church versus the state, we end up with chaos instead of clarity. In today’s episode, we’ll explore how thinking in proper categories can transform not only how we engage with the world but also how we honor God in the process.

We are witnessing the birth of a new priesthood. They wear cardigans instead of cassocks, quote Brené Brown instead of the Bible, and dispense diagnoses in place of absolution. And for millions of Americans, they’ve become the final authority on the soul.
In just one generation, we’ve gone from 'God save a wretch like me' to 'my therapist says.' The modern language of self-care and self-love have replaced self-denial and love for God. All the while, rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide have climbed—not fallen. The numbers are staggering. Nearly one in five U.S. adults is in therapy. Over 40 million are diagnosed with anxiety. Even children are being trained to identify as mentally ill.
But here’s the real crisis: it’s not just that our nation is mentally unwell—it’s that the church is copying the world’s prescriptions. Christians now outsource the care of the soul to secular professionals who deny the soul even exists.
Historically, the church called this affliction “melancholy”—a burden of body, yes, but also a trial of the conscience, a grief of the soul. The Puritans didn’t dismiss this pain. But they also never called it neutral. They traced it back to disordered loves, guilty consciences, spiritual darkness—and then pointed people to Christ, not a couch.

Today we’re asking a hard question: “What if our therapeutic age is not a solution to our suffering, but a refusal to see it rightly?” What if our feelings are not enemies, but signposts? And what if the Church still holds the cure—not in a padded office, but in Word, sacrament, and the communion of saints?
Let’s get into it.
This morning, Pope Francis, the 266th pope of the Roman Catholic Church, died. Francis was the first Pope from the Society of the Jesuits and the first that was born outside of Europe since the 8th century. Since being elected in 2013, his time as Pope was marked by a strong humanitarian agenda, with an emphasis on climate change, opposition to the death penalty, advocacy for decriminalization of homosexuality, and criticism of anti-immigration policies. He was heavily criticized throughout his time by conservatives both inside and outside the Catholic Church for policies and statements that seemed at odds with the historic and traditional teachings of the church on marriage, homosexuality, immigration, and the death penalty.
But now, with Francis’s passing, a new Pope will be elected. Roman Catholicism is still the largest Christian tradition, numbering 1.4 billion adherents to Protestantism’s roughly 800 million. It holds massive amounts of land—over 150 million acres worldwide—and billions of dollars in real estate, stocks, and bonds. In short, it’s not going anywhere. But even with all of its assets, it still sits in a precarious position.
The young members of the Roman Catholic Church are shockingly conservative. According to the New York Times in 2024, “In an era of deep divisions in the church, newly ordained [Roman Catholic] priests overwhelmingly lean right in their theology, practices and politics.” Local dioceses are bursting at the seams with young families and conservative men who are fed up with modernity and uninterested in a rock concert at the local megachurch.

So what will the next Pope do? Will he attempt to reform the church from the inroads that liberalism has made? Imagine what would happen with a Pope open to revisiting Vatican II and Trent. The fate of the West—especially Europe, which is more Catholic than Protestant—may hang in the balance. Join us now as we discuss.
