Ep 1009 | Willie Robertson on Sharing the Gospel | Guest: Willie Robertson

Today we're joined by Nancy Pearcey, author of "Love Thy Body" and "The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes," for part two of our discussion on the biblical view of the body and the philosophy of “toxic masculinity.” We start off with the reality that one's view of God determines one's view of masculinity. We look at ancient philosophers as well as Charles Darwin, who all believed in an innate inferiority of women. Meanwhile, it's Christians who have been trying to champion the dignity of women – it's Christianity that gives a rich, full understanding of masculinity that no other ideology does. We discuss the importance of the physical strength of men and how while feminism calls them to repress it, Christianity calls them to redirect it to something that fulfills its purpose. Nancy Pearcey is the author of The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes, as well as Love Thy Body, The Soul of Science, Saving Leonardo, Finding Truth, and Total Truth. She is professor and scholar in residence at Houston Christian University. She has been quoted in The New Yorker and Newsweek, highlighted as one of the five top women apologists by Christianity Today, and hailed in The Economist as "America's pre-eminent evangelical Protestant female intellectual." --- Timecodes: (01:11) View of God determines view of masculinity (04:38) Female inferiority (12:11) Using the animal kingdom to justify behavior (16:25) Natural instincts/strength of men (22:30) Christian headship and submission (27:34) Puritan views on women (35:43) Christianity's dignity of children --- Today's Sponsors: A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!

Today we're joined by Nancy Pearcey, author of "Love Thy Body" and "The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes," to discuss the biblical view of the body and the philosophy of “toxic masculinity.” She shares her testimony and the origin of her interest in apologetics and engaging the secular culture. Her work helps Christians understand the philosophical history and legacy of postmodern ideas and their harmful conclusions – so where does the idea of “toxic masculinity” come from, and how do we confront it? We discuss how the Bible offers a better solution to things like gender identity and toxic masculinity. We explain how we should confront gender ideologues with the truth that Christians love and have dignity for the body. Across cultures, men seem to understand the purpose of masculinity, so what has corrupted this understanding, and what does Christianity have to say about it?

Today we're joined by one of your favorite guests, BlazeTV's own Steve Deace, host of the "Steve Deace Show," to discuss Trump's indictments and what they mean for all of us. We also discuss some differences between Trump and DeSantis and speculate where their strengths and weaknesses may play into a potential future general election. Then, the Supreme Court rules against affirmative action in college acceptances this morning, condemning race-based acceptance in universities. We explain how schools are already trying to circumvent this ruling through extreme admissions policies and how detrimental affirmative action is for society as a whole. Then, Chrissy Teigen reveals she "had" another baby via a surrogate just five months after she gave birth herself. We cover why the purposeful removal of this baby from his gestator is so tragic and why there just are no good reasons to justify something like this. --- Timecodes: (01:12) New merch!

Today we're joined by Pastor Tom Ascol of Grace Baptist Church to discuss the Southern Baptist Convention's annual meeting held a few weeks ago, where the big topic was whether Rick Warren's Saddleback Church would remain in the SBC after its new stance on female pastors. Pastor Tom breaks down what happened and the major arguments, as well as why Rick Warren's argument doesn't hold up against biblical standards. We discuss how God does in fact equip women to share the gospel and learn theology, but a pastor is not just a evangelist, nor just a theologian. We also discuss the failure of men to take responsibility and how detrimental that is to the church and to our roles as men and women. Then we take a look at a Twitter interaction between Senator Ted Cruz and Pastor Ascol regarding Uganda's anti-homosexuality act. Finally, we look at the civil code of the Old Testament versus our New Covenant direction, and explain why nothing is neutral and our manmade laws do need to be based on some worldview – the question is which one.

Today we're starting off with a much-needed, good-news story of a firefighter who found a baby in a Safe Haven Baby Box at his fire station and proceeded to adopt her. We talk about the beauty of God knowing exactly what family this little baby was going to be a part of. Unfortunately, it's not all good news. We also look at Demi Lovato's new song "Swine," which is a vulgar pro-abortion anthem. We read some of Demi's crass lyrics and explain why we actually just feel bad for how lost she is. Then, we discuss the eight-year anniversary of the Obergefell v. Hodges decision and the many arguments that this breakdown of the family would not lead to even more extreme definitions of family. Despite the claims that Obergefell wouldn't lead to polygamy, a comparison between 2015 and now proves otherwise. One example of the depravity we've found ourselves in is the Seattle Pride parade, which featured a group of fully naked men riding bikes directly in front of children. We explain why mothers and fathers are not interchangeable and why the attack on the family is so dangerous.

Today we're talking about Obama's tweet condemning the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which shows just how evil the pro-abortion philosophy is. We give a reminder of what an abortion actually is and explain how only an evil ideology could not only allow such a thing but actively applaud it. Then we look at Justin Giboney's "AND Campaign" response to us, which claims that our argument that Christians should not vote Democrat really means Christians should vote Republican. We explain why this isn't necessarily true and why some Christians tend to misunderstand the cruelty of Democratic policies in the first place. We take a look at some other responses to us and break down why the two political sides are not morally equivalent. Finally, we look at some horrifying abortion rhetoric from the Left. --- Timecodes: (01:06) Intro (09:53) Obama's tweet / abortion numbers post-Roe / pregnancy centers (22:00) What is abortion?

Today we're covering various topics in the news. First, an update on the lost Titanic tourist submersible search and some of the bizarre stories coming out surrounding it. We look at an insane post from the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) which condemns Florida for executing a serial rapist/murderer while not providing him tax-payer subsidized gender transition "treatments" and transferred to a women's prison. We take a look at his horrifying criminal history and why this contributes even further to an already existing pattern of violence against women from this group. We also look at another case of a violent man being transferred to a women's prison due to leftist policy. Then, a World Economic Forum contributor claims that AI could be used to rewrite the Bible and create religions that are "correct" when they claim their books are written by a superhuman power. We explain his misunderstanding of how the Bible came to be and what Christians believe, and why it's so important to understand that no one even wants this.

Today the team is going through some news of the day, along with a slightly discouraging study on teen depression. First, we discuss the news stories we haven't been paying much attention to – what's going on with Trump's indictments, and why do we continue to hear new things about Hunter Biden's laptop? We explain why it's been difficult to catch up. Then, a tourist submarine touring the Titanic remains has gone missing, and the search is still on. We discuss this terrifying scenario and look at some of the weird details that have been revealed. We also discuss a study on teen depression and ask the question: Why do teens seem to be more depressed now than ever? --- Timecodes: (00:38) Intro (02:35) What's going on with Donald Trump and Hunter Biden?
