    This Doesn't Sound Like Jesus
    Feb 19 2026
    A troubling clip of a South African megachurch pastor raises an important question: what does real, biblical leadership actually sound like? In this episode, we listen to the uncomfortable clip and then compare it to the words and teaching of Jesus in the New Testament. There's a big difference between spiritual authority and spiritual control. Because the church belongs to Christ—not to any personality—and His voice still sets the standard for every shepherd.

  • Eternity Over Applause

    Eternity Over Applause
    Feb 12 2026
    Prompted by comments from Andy Beshear during his appearance on The View, this episode steps back to ask a deeper question: What happens when Scripture is used to support ideas that conflict with God’s design? With grief, clarity, and compassion, this conversation explores what the Bible truly teaches about truth, love, children, and eternal accountability calling all of us to faithfulness to Christ above the applause of the moment.

  • Under Construction

    Under Construction
    Feb 5 2026
    At this year’s Grammys, an unexpected moment of honesty cut through the noise. When Jelly Roll spoke about faith, failure, and grace, it didn’t sound like a sermon—it sounded like a confession. In this episode, we explore why that moment resonated so deeply, what Scripture says about lives still in progress, and why God’s grace meets us not after we’re finished, but while we’re still under construction.

  • Grace With a Backbone

    Grace With a Backbone
    Jan 29 2026
    In this episode, we take on a recent "Holy Post" segment in which New York Times columnist David French divides Christian churches into “fear the world” churches and “love your neighbor” churches. That's a false dichotomy behind that is not supported in Scripture. We'll take a look at the words of Jesus, and ask whether discernment and warning are truly opposed to Christian love, or essential to it.

  • How Woke Are You, Mr. Heck?

    How Woke Are You, Mr. Heck?
    Jan 22 2026
    A student recently asked me, "How woke are you, Mr. Heck?" My answer is simple: I’m not woke — because I’m a Christian. That’s not a judgment on who can follow Jesus, or a claim that people with “woke” views can’t be Christians. It’s a statement about worldviews. I think this is an important episode. We'll get into why wokeness functions like a competing religion, why it ultimately clashes with the gospel, and why Christianity tells a better story of identity, truth, and redemption.

    This Changed How I See Salvation
    Jan 15 2026
    A powerful insight from evangelist Ray Comfort just reshaped my understanding of how true conversion to Christ happens. We always avoid the law and lead with a more palatable, "Jesus died for your sins" or "Jesus loves you." But that doesn't end up making sense to someone who doesn't understand their guilt. It's foolish and offensive. There's a better way.

  • The Gospel and the Gulag

    The Gospel and the Gulag
    Jan 8 2026
    In this episode, I argue that it’s not enough to simply label things “Marxist” and move on. If Christianity truly opposes Marxism, we should understand why - not as a talking point, but as a matter of theology, history, and worldview.
