Ep 134 | End Times

First, we discuss recent comments made by John MacArthur about religious freedom. Is it right to fight for the religious liberty of those who hate you? Then, we briefly address Beth Moore leaving the Southern Baptist Convention. She's been a controversial figure in the SBC for some time, and it seems they will be parting ways. And, it was disappointing to see elements of critical race theory and other aspects of leftist social justice creeping into IF:Gathering, a conference for Christian women. --- Today's Sponsors: Built Bar: Don't give up on your resolution.

Today we're discussing the disastrous HR 1 "For the People" Act, which is anything but. Rep. Chip Roy of Texas joins us to give further details on the bill, like how it would limit free speech and make our elections less secure — the exact opposite of what the act claims to do. The congressman also tells us about his "Know Debt" resolution, which he hopes will draw attention to our nation's out-of-control debt. Then, we talk about the (shocking, just shocking) betrayal of Pro-Life Evangelicals for Biden by the Biden administration. In a move that no one could have predicted, it looks like our pro-abortion president will be supporting abortion via the COVID relief bill, and Christian Democrats are unhappy about it. --- Today's Sponsor: Annie's Kit Club: Every month, Annie's Creative Woman Club will send you a brand-new craft kit to engage your mind and calm your soul.

We start off the week by giving an update on the James Coates situation. You'll remember that Pastor Coates is in trouble with the Canadian government for not following COVID guidelines and choosing to open his church to all, in accordance with his faith. The jailing of Pastor Coates is a sharp contrast to another legal case in the Edmonton, Alberta, area: A sexual predator with a long history of convictions was released from jail the same week that Pastor Coates was locked up. Under what logic is James Coates the bigger threat to society? Then, we discuss a recent article in the New York Times that points out the alarming idea that Instagram influencers are beginning to occupy the societal role typically associated with church and religion. The article points out people like Glennon Doyle, who, through books and Instagram feeds, give pseudo-spiritual comfort to thousands and thousands of women. --- Today's Sponsor: Patriot Mobile is America's ONLY Christian conservative wireless provider.

Today we're discussing the idea of religious persecution regarding Pastor James Coates of GraceLife Church in Alberta, Canada. Pastor Coates is in jail right now for holding his church services at full capacity instead of the 15% capacity mandated by the government. A point of contention among Christian circles has been whether this qualifies as religious persecution or not. To give further details and commentary on the situation, Erin Coates, the pastor's wife, joins us. We address the theology of the situation and offer some encouragement for the future. --- Today's Sponsors: Annie's Kit Clubs: No matter your crafting experience, you can make a picture-perfect project you'll be proud to display.

Yesterday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced that Texas will no longer have a statewide mask mandate and that the government will no longer require businesses to operate at reduced capacity. Then, we discuss New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and the #MeToo moment he's having right now. Three women have accused him of harassment, and unlike Cuomo's nursing home COVID scandal, the media actually seems to care about this one. And, it's time we addressed the much-talked-about exchange between Senator Rand Paul and Rachel Levine during Dr. Levine's confirmation hearing.  --- Today's sponsors: Built Bar: Stay healthy in the new year!

In perhaps its most controversial move yet, the Biden administration did not honor Dr. Seuss during National Read Across America Day. If we keep canceling authors for their perceived problems, will there be any books left to read? Maybe just the ones by Robin DiAngelo or Ibram X. Kendi. This kind of cultural revolt against anything "old" has been seen before in Mao's China, to horrifying effect. The progressives of today have a similarly utopian dream, but the road to get to the equity they want so much is laden with suffering. Maybe we should stop burning books, literally or figuratively? They want math to be more equitable too: Some teachers are now being told that it's white supremacy to look for a single correct answer to a problem.  --- Today's sponsor: Annie's Kit Clubs: No matter your crafting experience, you can make a picture-perfect project you’ll be proud to display.

Today we're discussing the controversy surrounding Taylor Nolan, Chris Harrison, and "The Bachelor," as well as Trump's return to the spotlight at CPAC. Taylor Nolan of "The Bachelor" has long been a champion of cancel culture and a self-proclaimed expert on all things woke. But that didn't save her from the rage mob when it was discovered that she had some offensive tweets of her own from years back. Incredibly, Taylor shifted the blame from herself to society at large. This is a classic example of the double-edged nature of cancel culture: Once they set their sights on you, no amount of wokeness can save you. As Christians, we know that God has the authority to really cancel us for all eternity, but we find our joy in his grace and forgiveness — two traits that cancel culture is sorely lacking. Moving on to CPAC, Trump took the stage to deride the Biden administration's stance on school openings and the fact that allowing transgender girls to compete in women's sports is harmful to biological girls. Many at CPAC said they would vote for Donald Trump if he ran again, but the man would be over 80 years old by then! Others say that Florida Gov. Ron Desantis could be a kind of Trump 2.0, since his state is faring quite well in the pandemic compared to blue states and he has taken other strong stances conservatives approve of. --- Today's sponsor: ExpressVPN: Protect your information from the prying eyes of big tech!

Today we're talking about the Equality Act as well as Joe Biden's pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, Xavier Becerra. The man who succeeded Kamala Harris as AG of California, Becerra has already proved himself to be a pro-abortion politician. Christian Democrats who say they are pro-choice should really know better; one can't reconcile an acceptance of abortion with adherence to God's word, the Bible. A major piece of legislation that Democrats want passed is the Equality Act, and it's about much more than who can use which bathroom. There are much broader implications in this act for kids and churches, and to speak about that, we welcome pro-life activist Lila Rose to the show. ---- Today's Sponsors: Built Bar is better-tasting than your favorite candy bar.
