Society used to have standards for beauty, and we walked away from them. Postmodernism told us truth is subjective and anything goes, so we went from Saint Peter's Basilica to strip mall churches, from classical music to profanity-laced pop, from architecture that stopped you in your tracks to buildings that are just boxes. The people who built those great cathedrals spent their entire lives on something they'd never see finished. That kind of dedication tells you something about what they believed.

C.S. Lewis said there is no neutral ground in the universe. Every square inch is claimed by God and counterclaimed by Satan. The way a society builds, dresses, and makes art is never neutral. What we've lost goes deeper than aesthetic taste. Beauty comes from God. When a culture stops caring about one, it usually stops caring about the other.

The 2026 Met Gala pictures made their rounds again this week, and the outfits keep getting harder to look at. How a culture dresses tells you something real about what it believes. What walked that red carpet this year and what Grace Kelly wore to hers are not just different fashion choices. They reflect completely different ideas about beauty, the body, and God.

I was raised to never wear jeans to church. My mom made sure I dressed in a way that honored the room, the occasion, and the people in it. Modesty wasn't a rule — it was self-respect. Our grandparents understood that and we've mostly walked away from it. This episode is about why that matters.

Charlie Kirk had a gift that very few people in the Christian conservative movement actually had.

He could sit across from someone who disagreed with him - completely, FUNDAMENTALLY, disagreed with him and stay in it. And somehow, in doing that, he held together a coalition of people who FRANKLY don't always get along.

What happened since his assassination has been deeply discouraging. There was unity for a moment. Talk of revival. A renewed sense of mission. And then, slowly, the focus shifted. Back to infighting, back to arguments on X, back to the distractions that pull us away from the things that actually matter.

So today, I want to go back to Charlie. His own words. The clips I keep returning to, on America's Christian founding, on abortion, on the Sabbath, on marriage and family, and on why we should never stop having hope no matter how dark the world looks.

The question hanging over the conservative movement right now isn't just who takes Charlie’s place.

It's whether what he helped build survives without him.

Public school indoctrination is real. If you had any doubt that teachers pushed socialism and leftism, look no further than this years May Day protests. The protests were highly coordinated, funded and backed by 600 groups with $2B in revenue.

In today's episode, Grace breaks down exactly what happened, who coordinated the school walkouts, what the May Day protests were actually demanding, and why Chicago is the standout example of a school system that's been failing kids for years while keeping them busy with political activism.

The political and cultural left has spent decades branding themselves as the "party of science" while labeling conservatives as "anti-science." On a recent episode of Jubilee's "Surrounded," health expert Jillian Michaels sat down with 20 body positivity activists to debate multiple claims, one being: "obesity is not healthy, and pretending it is puts lives at risk." I never imagined this would be a controversial claim, given the science and objectivity around the subject as it relates to health. It is not personal or in any way related to a persons worth. It should be fine to have a science based health conversation and all seek health together, no matter what our personal health situation is. However, this turned into a controversial debate, one that points to broader themes and questions in our culture and political environment.

Underneath everything is a much deeper question about where we find our worth. Self-love, body positivity, and self-affirmation are never going to fill us. Only Jesus can. Our bodies are temples we're charged to steward, and pursuing health is a good thing, a biblical thing, no matter where you are on that journey. The most loving thing we can do, for ourselves and for the people we love, is to affirm truth, even when it's uncomfortable.

Starting in 2027, all new vehicles will be installed with AI surveillance technology that has the ability to limit or STOP vehicle operation without the driver's action or consent — either while driving or by stopping the car from starting in the first place. The system and vehicle would be able to override the driver.

The stated goal of this legislation is to prevent impaired or drunk driving and save lives. This specific provision is called the HALT Drunk Driving Act, and was added by a bipartisan group of lawmakers. Seems like noble intentions — but there are MANY Americans who see this as crossing a BIG LINE that tramples over our 4th and 5th Amendments while causing serious privacy concerns.

The ends do not justify the means. There have to be other ways to limit drunk driving and save lives. You can't cross lines like this and venture on such slippery slopes to do it.

Think about it. If they had had this during COVID, how much do you want to bet they would have turned our cars off or monitored us if we were out and about? Creating the kill switch ability is one step away from the government using reasons other than AI-detected impairment to shut off your vehicle. It swings that door wide open. And that's not even considering concerns about malfunctions, false positives generated by the AI system, or hacking.

In this episode, I'm breaking down what's actually buried in Section 24220 of the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, why Representatives Thomas Massie, Chip Roy, and Scott Perry have tried again and again to stop this (and why 57 Republicans crossed the aisle to keep it funded), how Ford, GM, OnStar, and Tesla have already shown us where this road leads, and why we should all be paying attention before 2027 gets here.

In today's episode of Restoring America,I sit down with Hannah Faulkner, host of The Hannah Faulkner Show, for a bold conversation about the ethical problems with IVF and surrogacy, the Christian pro-life position, children’s rights, biblical marriage, and what it will actually take to restore America.

We discuss why many Christians have avoided hard conversations about in vitro fertilization, embryo destruction, the fertility industry, and surrogacy. Then explain why being pro-life means asking difficult questions about what happens to embryos created through IVF, why children deserve both a mother and a father, and why adult desires should never come before the needs of a child.

If you are a Christian, conservative, pro-life voter, parent, young woman, or anyone trying to understand the debate over IVF, surrogacy, abortion, feminism, and restoring the American family, this conversation is for you.

Special Guest: Hannah Faulkner.

Allie Beth Stuckey sat down to debate with 20 liberal Christians, and the arguments she had to push back on are worth paying attention to.

Jubilee's Surrounded format puts one person across from a room full of people who disagree with them. In this episode, Allie, a conservative Christian, author, and host of the 'Relatable' podcast, was that one person.

I'm reacting to the clips that stood out to me: the toxic empathy debate, what the Bible says about how we're actually called to love, and the abortion exchange, which went about as you'd expect.

These conversations are worth having and worth taking seriously.
