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

Today we're talking about the "Asbury Revival," currently taking place at Asbury University in Kentucky. Last week, after a regular weekly chapel service at the university, students didn't leave. Instead, they continued worshiping and have not stopped for over 130 hours and counting. There have been reports of people traveling cross-country to experience this unplanned event, and many have claimed it's unlike other "revivals" that have left some skeptical. We cover the important questions that need to be asked, such as whether the gospel is actually being preached and what kind of teaching is happening in the midst of worship. We provide some encouragement and challenge for Asbury students, who have the potential to use this "revival" for God's glory even after it's over. Then, we take a look at Chelsea Handler's obsession with being childless. While guest-hosting "The Daily Show" last week, Handler did both a monologue and a skit about how "free" she is because she doesn't have kids, and she was ... really trying hard to convince us. We break down how sad it is that she feels a need to berate motherhood and children in her tirade and explain why her argument that she can do whatever she wants could very well also be true right now even if she had had children. --- Timecodes: (02:30) Asbury Revival: what's happening (12:20) Asbury: some concerns (16:14) Asbury: excitement & encouragement (23:40) Asbury: things to consider (31:49) Chelsea Handler on kids (46:19) Stats on teen girl depression --- 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 James Jay (Jim) Carafano, Vice President for National Security & Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation, to discuss these mysterious UFOs that have seemed to puzzle the Pentagon over the past few weeks. The truth is, they're likely a lot less mysterious than people are being led to believe. It's not been released that these flying objects are, in fact, balloons as well. We break down where they probably came from and the science behind why they all seem to look different and be flying at different altitudes. We also discuss the response from the White House (or lack thereof) and how vulnerable this makes our country to foreign enemies. Then, we talk about the Ohio train derailment disaster, which saw thousands of people evacuated from East Palestine, Ohio, after a train crashed and started leaking toxic chemicals. We look at the cleanup response and aftermath, which has seen livestock and fish dead and water contaminated. How bad is this disaster, and what are the consequences 15-20 years into the future? We look at some of the theories of what's going on, from gross incompetence to intentional destruction of farmland.

Today we're discussing the 'He Gets Us' campaign, as promised! The $100 million advertising campaign seeks to promote Jesus and Christianity through TV spots in prime time, billboards, and social media feeds. These ads portray Jesus as a refugee, an activist, and an influencer, among other characteristics, and aim to communicate his relatability to modern problems (ultimately leading people to the "He Gets Us" site). Two of these ads ran in last night's Super Bowl and made big waves among Christians and non-Christians. One of the problems with the campaign is its claims about Jesus, which are not entirely accurate and/or are missing important context. The campaign does not align with any specific denomination or doctrine, but rather seeks to partner with churches and organizations who can use its resources for outreach. We discuss the major concerns of the campaign, but also highlight some of the good that can come from it. It's exciting to see a campaign like "He Gets Us" put big money behind helping people connect with Jesus, and we've already heard good stories of people hearing the gospel, but we can still remain wary of some of the campaign's messages that lack context and historical accuracy. --- Timecodes: (02:14) Super Bowl national anthem(s) & Rhianna (07:25) Super Bowl commercials (14:33) ‘He Gets Us & discernment  (18:42) About ‘He Gets Us’ (37:09) The bad & unbiblical (55:35) The good --- Today's Sponsors: Birch Gold — protect your future with gold.

Today we're joined by Aldo Buttazzoni of PragerU to discuss his recent exposé on YouTube Kids content and the new controversial Disney+ "Proud Family" show. In this report, posted via Twitter, Aldo reveals what disgusting content is not only made available, but advertised to kids upon first creating an account. One account, called "Queer Kid Stuff," breaks down the infinite sexualities in the LGBTQ+ group and details what each letter means. We also discuss Aldo's trip to the Los Angeles Zoo Drag Night, which was marketed to kids as young as 2. Then, we take a look at Disney+'s new show, "The Proud Family," where in one episode titled "Juneteenth," the characters proclaim that slaves built America, Abraham Lincoln didn't actually free slaves, and that black people are deserving of reparations and demand to be paid. Why is more and more of this content creeping into kids' programming? We also look at what's going on in Florida with Governor DeSantis' pushback on critical race theory and diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and why this is a very good thing. --- Timecodes: (00:40) Intro (08:52) Interview with Aldo begins / YouTube Kids (23:00) LA Zoo Drag Night (25:50) Proud Family reboot (32:56) Racism courses in Florida (44:19) Hate crime in Orange County --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — change the way you shop for meat today by visiting GoodRanchers.com/ALLIE and use promo code 'ALLIE' for $20 off your first box of America’s best meat and seafood!

Today we're talking about Biden's State of the Union address last night. We cover some of the funniest moments from the night – Biden gaffes included – but we also break down some of the topics he brought up, from the praise of abortion (cue roaring applause from the Democrats) to violence and gun control to taxes and oil. The Republicans were particularly heated throughout the speech, yelling back at the president's claims on fentanyl at the border and the GOP's supposed plans for Social Security. We debunk some of Biden's claims, and we take a look at Sarah Huckabee Sanders' response on behalf of the GOP. --- Timecodes: (00:40) State of the Union (05:45) Jill Biden kiss (07:54) Biden gaffs (11:13) Abortion (19:40) "Transgender young people" (24:52) Violence (28:04) Fentanyl (33:04) Social security (37:05) Taxing the rich (40:15) Oil (43:13) GOP response --- Today's Sponsors: Birch Gold — protect your future with gold.

Today we're talking about Andy Stanley's latest controversy after he said in a conference speech that gay churchgoers seem to have a lot more faith than straight ones. We explain why the language Stanley uses, as well as his dismissal of scripture (calling relevant verses "clobber passages"), is ultimately unloving, as it dismisses the need for repentance for both this lifestyle and the reliance upon "sexual identity." We break down exactly what he said in his speech and give some background info on Stanley's history of controversy. In 2018, Stanley found himself in hot water after he undermined the authority of scripture in a speech, claiming that Christians should "unhitch" from the Old Testament. And ultimately, if Andy Stanley believes he can do a better job of reaching people than God can, or believes that God is too harsh, then we should call this out. Then, we're joined by Jacob Kersey, a former police officer who made headlines last week after he was put on leave for refusing to take down a social media post expressing his Christian views on same-sex marriage. He decided to resign after he was told he was not allowed to post "offensive" beliefs on his personal social media, and he's now speaking out about the importance of being an outspoken and bold believer. Jacob shares some encouragement for those in similar positions.

Today we're discussing Sam Smith and Kim Petras' Grammys performance, which featured blatant satanic imagery including Smith dressing up as the devil, Petras dancing in a cage, and dominatrices wearing satanic headgear. We take a look at what their inspiration was for the performance (hint: it's ridiculous) and why it's yet another example of Hollywood's obsession with satanic imagery. We talk about how, while this blatant satanic worship is worrying, it's not the biggest concern we should be focused on. False gospel teachers and those influencing our children are an even greater threat to our worldview. We also discuss the Chinese spy balloon that flew over the U.S. last week until it was shot down a few days ago. We look at some of the theories about the balloon and just how concerned we should be. --- Timecodes: (00:44) Intro (02:19) Sam Smith & Kim Petras' Grammys performance (20:10) When others call you "-phobe" (28:37) Grammys fashion (39:50) Chinese spy balloon --- Today's Sponsors: StartMail — keep your email private - every email can be encrypted!

Today we're joined by Dr. Voddie Baucham, dean of theology at African Christian University in Zambia, to discuss the current state of the country and the topics of public schools, race, diversity, and Christian nationalism. First, with the midterm election coming up in two weeks, we look at how Christians can come to terms with where we've found ourselves as a nation in the midst of drag queen story hours and corporate CRT policies. We talk about the depravity of public school curriculum and the popular philosophy of sending kids to public school as "missionaries." We break down how CRT and race politics are merely about power and how the Left only wants diversity if it's ethnic diversity. Then, we dive into how "Christian nationalism" has become a trigger phrase for the Left and what it actually means. --- Previous Episodes with Dr. Baucham: Ep 282 | Exposing & Opposing Social Justice Theology | Guest: Dr. Voddie Baucham https://apple.co/3grw2G0 Ep 460 | How Social Justice Activism Is Infecting The Church | Guest: Dr. Voddie Baucham https://apple.co/3SvMnXE --- Buy Allie's book, You're Not Enough (& That's Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love: https://alliebethstuckey.com/book Relatable merchandise – use promo code 'ALLIE10' for a discount: https://shop.blazemedia.com/collections/allie-stuckey Learn more about your ad choices.
