Ep 1054 | 'It Ends with Us' Is Emotional Porn for Women

Today we'll take a deep dive into an often-misinterpreted Bible verse: Micah 6:8. Some on the progressive side of Christianity use this verse to give credence to their social justice narratives, but is this verse really about making changes to society? --- Buy Allie's book, You're Not Enough (& That's Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love: https://alliebethstuckey.com/book Relatable merchandise: https://shop.blazemedia.com/collections/allie-stuckey Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we're talking to Seth Dillon, CEO of the Babylon Bee, the most true and factual website in history. We discuss the role of satire, the new book, "The Babylon Bee Guide to Wokeness," and how humor is uniquely positioned to counter authoritarianism. The Bee is always getting in trouble with the Left, and while it's funny to see progressives freak out about obvious satire, there is a more sinister motive; if the Left can get enough people to believe Seth's website spreads right-wing disinformation, they can more easily de-platform the Bee. We end on a different subject, hashing out some of the differences between Calvinist and Arminian views on predestination. --- Today's Sponsors: Alliance Defending Freedom has challenged the private employer vaccine mandate in court, but they still need your help.

Today we're talking to Costi Hinn, a pastor and the founder of For the Gospel Ministry, about a variety of topics related to prosperity gospel. Costi tells his own story of coming from believing prosperity gospel to his now more biblical views. We discuss what's wrong with the prosperity gospel, from untouchable faith leaders to churchgoers locked into their "name it and claim it" mantras. Costi has written a book, "More Than a Healer," in which he tries to help people gain a more complete picture of Jesus and which seeks to get people to understand what biblical justice is, even if the truth is difficult to hear.  --- Today's Sponsors: Annie's Kit Clubs send you a new shipment every month with all the instructions & special supplies you need to make something.

Today we're talking to Andrew T. Walker, associate professor of Christian ethics and apologetics at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Walker has a wealth of theological knowledge on a variety of topics, from the biblical view of government to the role God intended families to play in society. We discuss how Christians should view government and what its true purpose is, according to the Bible. We also talk about the best way for Christians to argue their beliefs to a secular population and how and to what degree the government should reflect Christianity. --- Today's Sponsors: Cozy Earth sheets, pajamas & loungewear are made from super soft viscose & from highly sustainable bamboo.

Today we're talking to comedian and podcast host Bridget Phetasy about her life and how her views have changed over time. Bridget was more or less a typical liberal Democrat for much of her early adult life, before being unintentionally dragged into the culture wars. She talks about leaving the Left, how she navigates having heterodox views in an increasingly polarized world, and how her faith in a higher power has been strengthened after her amazing story of beating addiction, meeting her husband, and getting pregnant. **Please note: this conversation is for a mature audience** --- Today's Sponsors: Alliance Defending Freedom has challenged the employer vaccine mandate in court, but they need your help.

Hillary's organization is dedicated to providing resources to moms who want to raise their kids with a biblical worldview.
