Drop us a note about the podcast. A single headline can expose a culture’s fault lines, and we start there, then trace the deeper question it raises: do we still have the moral courage to live by what we say we believe? We open with Proverbs 31 and a warning about misused strength, then move into prayer for listeners, families, marriages, leaders, and the vulnerable, especially children who are abandoned or abused.From Genesis 2, we talk plainly about biblical marriage and why separating sex from marriage collides with God’s design. We connect that disobedience to what so many people see around them every day: pornography, adultery, and divorce, including inside the church. Then we read Jesus’ words in Luke 13 about the narrow door, a passage that challenges comfortable religion and pushes us toward real repentance and obedience. Psalm 79 adds the language of national lament, asking what it looks like to seek mercy when a people feel “on the brink of despair.”We also shift to history and memory: a Medal of Honor spotlight, plus a powerful 1954 Dwight D Eisenhower Back to God broadcast that ties American freedom to faith, prayer, and shared moral foundations. Whether you agree with every conclusion or not, the episode is a direct look at Christian discipleship in public life, cultural decline, and the hard choices believers face in a conflicted age.
