Ep 47 | The Toxicity of Feminism
Despite what mainstream culture tells us, feminism doesn't actually stand for anything good. In fact, most of what feminism stands for is toxic, regressive, and detrimental to society. 10/18/2018 Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Ep 46 | Abortion Ain't Biblical
An Episcopal church in California hosts an atheist abortion doctor to teach the congregation about her "mission" in her work. We discuss why abortion will never, ever be congruent with biblical Christianity. Plus, does "purity culture" really lead to rape culture? 10/16/2018 Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Ep 45 | You're Not a Victim
The rallying cry of the Left is that you, as a woman or a minority, are a victim. Because of that, you must have the government intervene on your behalf to succeed. This is a lie. Here's why. Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Ep 43 | God's Sovereignty
Amid all this Kavanaugh madness, it's time to take a deep breath and a step back! This episode is a reminder to all of us (me included!) that God is in complete control. I talk through my favorite story in the Bible — the story of Joseph — and what it teaches us about God's power. 10/4/2018 Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Ep 41 | Jen Hatmaker's Instagram Post
After a brief update on the Kavanaugh madness, I dig into one of Jen Hatmaker's recent Instagram posts that outlines her "working faith ethic." The post shows her devastating misunderstanding of the gospel, and I (lovingly) confront every way the post went wrong. Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Ep 40 | The Injustice of Believing All Women
Graham Allen of CRTV's Rant Nation joins me to talk about the insanity of the "believe all women" mantra being repeated by the Left in opposition to Brett Kavanaugh. We discuss the scariness of raising kids in a world without the presumption of innocence, where people are tried in the court of public opinion, and  where an accuser's word is final, while the accused's life is ruined.  Copyright CRTV.

Ep 38 | Before Believing Kavanaugh's Accuser
Today we're told that unless we unconditionally believe the woman who accuses a man of sexual assault, we're misogynists. In reality, that theory is unjust. Instead, we should always be in an earnest pursuit of truth. On this episode, I discuss the complexities of the latest Kavanaugh drama and unpack possible conclusions.  Copyright CRTV.

Ep 37 | Growing Anti-Americanism
Sadly, patriotism has become partisan. There is a growing anti-American sentiment on the Left, and it says a lot about what leftists value. We'll break down their cynicism toward our country and their privileged disregard for American greatness.  Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Ep 35 | The Paradox of Likability Within Christ...
On Tuesday, we talked about the paradox of likability as it pertains to politics and the Republican Party. Today, we discuss the paradox of likability within Christianity and specifically, how it may be used by a few Christian teachers to preach a false gospel — the "gospel of self-fulfillment." Then, Q&A. Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Ep 34 | The Paradox of Likability
If there's one thing conservatives generally lack, it's likability. Democrats and socialists have put forth their most affable candidates for the midterms, while Republicans are falling short, and we won't like the consequences. Likability isn't everything, though. It's a double-edged sword that must be wielded wisely. A Q&A section will end the episode.  Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Senator John McCain died over the weekend, and the reactions from both sides of the aisle were ... varied. I'll give you the truth about his life and death. We'll discuss the media's coverage of the incident, as well as its hypocritical takes on two other recent tragedies: the murder of Mollie Tibbetts and the Jacksonville shooting. Then, a follow-up on the myth of "self-love:" What about when you DON'T love yourself? Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Ep 31 | Trump: A Negative & A Positive
Today we talk about an area in which I disagree with the president and an area in which he's doing well. The first is the government's potential involvement in social media, and for that I chat with USA Today intern and Young Voices contributor Amelia Irvine. The second is the president's success in helping the black community by growing the economy, on which I receive insight from radio host Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson. Then ... one thing I don't get.

A grand jury report released last week reveals decades-long abuse in several Pennsylvania dioceses. I talk to my favorite Catholic, Michael Knowles of the Daily Wire, to hear his perspective on the travesty. I then dig a bit deeper into my analysis of the scandal.
