#418 The "God Told Me" Trap: Challenging How Christians Make Decisions | Greg Koukl

“God told me.” “I felt led by the Spirit.” “God gave me a peace about it.” We hear Christians say these things all the time. But is this really how God guides us? Are we supposed to look for signs, nudges, impressions, and confirmations to figure out His will for our lives? Or have we embraced a “nudge-nudge, wink-wink” approach to hearing God's voice that isn't actually taught in Scripture?
Apologist Greg Koukl joins me to challenge some deeply ingrained assumptions about how God speaks to Christians. We examine the Bible verses commonly used to support this approach, what it really means to be led by the Spirit, and how Christians should actually make decisions. Plus, I share a personal story I've never told publicly about a time I believed God spoke directly to me—and why I interpret that experience differently today.
Could our obsession with hearing God's voice actually be distracting us from what He's already said in His Word?

Has our obsession with rest made us lazy? In a Christian culture increasingly focused on Sabbath, slowing down, and avoiding burnout, have we forgotten that God actually created us to work?
In this episode, Alisa sits down with pastor and author Jonny Ardavanis to challenge some popular assumptions about work, rest, and productivity. Drawing from his new book, Get to Work: Seeing Your Daily Grind as God's Good Gift, Jonny makes the biblical case that work isn't a curse—it's a gift from God.
They tackle the uncomfortable topic of laziness, including the subtle ways it can hide behind busyness, entertainment, endless scrolling, and even spiritual activities. They also discuss why motherhood is often undervalued, how our culture has confused comfort with godliness, and what Jesus' example teaches us about balancing hard work with genuine rest.
Is our Sabbath culture helping us become more like Christ, or giving us an excuse to avoid the hard things God has called us to do? This conversation might just change the way you think about work—and convict you in ways you didn't expect

#416 The Islamic Dilemma: How the Quran Affirms the Bible | Chris Frost

Show notes
What if one of the strongest arguments against Islam comes from the Quran itself? Muslims believe the Quran is the final revelation from God, yet it repeatedly affirms the authority of the Torah and the Gospel while contradicting some of their most foundational teachings. This creates a serious problem known as the Islamic Dilemma.
In this episode, Alisa talks with Christian apologist Chris Frost, who regularly engages with Muslims at London's famous Speakers' Corner. They unpack what the Quran actually says about the Bible, why the claim that the Bible has been corrupted doesn't resolve the dilemma, and how Muslim scholars have wrestled with these contradictions throughout history. They also discuss biblical manuscript evidence, the preservation of the Quran, and practical ways Christians can use the Islamic Dilemma in conversations with Muslim friends and neighbors. Plus, Chris shares stories from his ministry, including Muslims who have left Islam to follow Christ.

Show notes
When it comes to kids and screens, it's easy to feel like the damage is already done. But here's the good news: It's never too late to make a change, and you don't have to overhaul your entire family overnight.
In this episode, Alisa sits down with author and speaker Arlene Pellicane to discuss her new book, The Great Tech Reset, and the growing impact of screens on childhood development, mental health, relationships, and spiritual growth. Arlene shares why she and her husband chose to raise their three children without smartphones, social media, or video games until their late teens—and what happened as a result.
They discuss the science behind screen addiction, how social media can undermine a biblical worldview, and why so many children are losing the ability to focus, read deeply, and engage with the real world. They also share honest lessons from their own parenting experiences and practical strategies for setting healthy boundaries, delaying smartphones, and reclaiming family time.
Whether you're raising toddlers or teenagers, this conversation offers encouragement and actionable steps for parents who want to raise thoughtful, resilient kids grounded in their faith. And if you feel like you've already made mistakes with technology, it's not too late to make a reset.

Why are so many young Christians converting to Roman Catholicism? Is the Catholic Church really the original, unchanged church established by Jesus? And does Rome teach the same gospel we find in Scripture?
In this episode, Alisa sits down with New Testament scholar and missionary Dr. Clark Bates to examine the growing appeal of Roman Catholicism, particularly among young evangelicals searching for deeper historical roots and a more substantial faith. Drawing from his experience training Protestant pastors in Italy, Clark explores the history of the Reformation in Italy, the Catholic Church’s claims about apostolic succession and church tradition, and the significant theological differences between Roman Catholicism and Protestant Christianity.
They discuss what Rome officially teaches about salvation, grace, the sacraments, and biblical authority, and why familiar Christian terms don't always mean the same thing in Catholic and Protestant theology. They also examine the writings of the early church fathers, the development of Catholic doctrine, and the question of whether Protestantism is disconnected from historic Christianity.
Most importantly, Clark explains why he is a Protestant and offers practical guidance for engaging Catholic friends and family members with biblical truth, clarity, and love.

Show notes
Decades ago, Christian philosopher and apologist Francis Schaeffer warned that evangelical Christianity was heading toward what he called “The Great Evangelical Disaster.” He believed that as Christians increasingly accommodated the spirit of the age, compromised biblical authority, and abandoned objective truth, the consequences would be devastating. Looking at the church today, was Schaeffer right?
In this episode, Alisa sits down with Dr. Bruce Little, professor emeritus of philosophy and director of the Francis A. Schaeffer Collection at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, to explore Schaeffer’s life, legacy, and remarkably relevant warnings. They discuss how theological compromise takes root in churches, the influence of postmodernism and pragmatism, the dangers of adopting secular business and leadership models, and the growing tribalism within evangelical Christianity. They also examine current debates over biblical inerrancy and why seemingly small accommodations can have significant consequences for future generations.
Are we witnessing the Great Evangelical Disaster Schaeffer warned about, or are we already living in its aftermath? And what can Christians learn from his unwavering commitment to truth?

Hot flashes, brain fog, anxiety, mood swings, sleepless nights... menopause can turn your world upside down! But how do we navigate these very real physical and emotional challenges while remaining faithful to Christ?
In part two of our series on menopause, I'm joined by some familiar voices from the world of Christian theology and apologetics who are getting personal about their own experiences with perimenopause and menopause.
Rosaria Butterfield, Shanda Fulbright, Korey Cooper, Krista Bontrager, Monique Duson, Patti Height, Katy Faust, and Teasi Cannon share honest stories, practical advice, biblical wisdom, and even a few laughs about this often-overlooked season of life.
We talk about everything from managing anxiety and intrusive thoughts to finding medical help, cultivating self-control, building supportive Christian friendships, and learning to trust God's Word when our emotions seem completely out of control.
Whether you're in the thick of perimenopause, navigating postmenopause, or preparing for what's ahead, this conversation is filled with encouragement and hope. Our bodies may be changing, but God's faithfulness never does. And this season of life can be an opportunity not just to endure, but to grow in wisdom, holiness, and our love for Christ.

Show notes
What does it look like to remain faithful to Christ when your hormones feel like they’re crashing out?
In this first episode of a two-part series on perimenopause and menopause, Alisa shares her own experience with hot flashes, sleep disruption, anxiety, and intense mental and emotional symptoms—and how learning to care for both her spiritual and physical health changed everything.
She is joined by physician assistant Hillary Morrison, who has spent more than a decade working in functional and integrative medicine. Together, they discuss what actually happens to a woman’s hormones during perimenopause, common symptoms to watch for, why some women struggle more than others, and the connection between hormonal changes, sleep, mood, weight, and overall health.
They also discuss hormone replacement therapy, progesterone, estrogen, testosterone, testing options, nutritional deficiencies, thyroid and gut health, and how women can advocate for themselves when seeking medical care.
Most importantly, Alisa and Hillary consider these questions through a Christian worldview. Hormonal changes may make obedience more difficult, but they do not define us or excuse sin. At the same time, caring for the physical body God has given us is not somehow less spiritual.
Whether you are currently in perimenopause, preparing for it, or trying to better understand a woman you love, this conversation offers practical information, biblical encouragement, and hope for navigating this season faithfully.

The New Apostolic Reformation has become increasingly influential in churches, worship music, conferences, and even politics—but what exactly is it, and how can Christians recognize its teachings?
In this episode, I’m joined by filmmaker Brandon Kimber, director and editor of the American Gospel films, to discuss the newest installment, American Gospel: Spirit & Fire, an 18-episode documentary series examining the New Apostolic Reformation.
We talk about the defining beliefs of the NAR, including modern-day apostles and prophets, claims of new revelation, the five-fold ministry, prosperity theology, and the movement’s understanding of spiritual authority. We also discuss why many leaders associated with these teachings reject the NAR label, and how Christians can evaluate the movement based on its actual theology and practices rather than labels alone.
We also dig into one of the biggest questions listeners had after my previous episode: What exactly is a “NAR song”? Brandon explains how NAR theology can find its way into worship music through Bethel Music and other ministries, and we discuss how Christians and church leaders can think carefully and biblically about the songs they sing.
Finally, we address the growing intersection between NAR leaders and conservative politics, the danger of compromising gospel clarity for political influence, and why faithfulness to the biblical gospel must remain central.
If you’ve been wondering what the NAR is, how to identify it, or why Spirit & Fire was created, this conversation will help you understand the movement and the theological concerns surrounding it.

Have you ever wanted to share the gospel with a Muslim but felt intimidated because you don’t know enough about Islam?
In this episode, I’m joined by Elle ISO, who regularly engages Muslims through street evangelism and apologetics. She shares practical ways Christians can begin meaningful conversations, ask good questions, explain who Jesus is, and respond when they don’t know the answer.
We also discuss some of the key differences between Christianity and Islam, the Islamic dilemma, questions surrounding Muhammad, common objections Muslims raise against Christianity, and some of the biggest barriers Muslims face when considering the gospel.
You don’t need a degree in Islamic theology to have a meaningful conversation with a Muslim. You need to know the gospel, be willing to ask questions, and be prepared to point people to Jesus.

What does the Bible actually teach about church leadership—and what happens when a pastor is treated as “God’s anointed man” whose board exists to strengthen his hand rather than hold him accountable?
In this episode, I respond to anepisode of the Resurge podcast hosted by pastors Josh Howerton and Josh McPherson, in which they lay out their vision for building a “wartime church.” I compare their model of leadership with the New Testament qualifications and responsibilities of elders and deacons, Jesus’ teaching on servant leadership, and the biblical warnings against domineering leadership.
I also explains why I connected aspects of their leadership model with the New Apostolic Reformation and address criticism that I should have handled my concerns privately under Matthew 18.
Rather than asking you take my word for it, I encourage Christians to listen to the full context, open their Bibles, and ask a crucial question: Is this how the New Testament describes leadership in Christ’s church?

Show notes
In this episode, I’m joined by Monique Duson and Phoenix Hayes to react to viral clips about abortion, progressive Christianity, gender ideology, and more. But the conversation takes an unexpected turn when we dive deep into spiritual warfare. How do Christians discern what is actually demonic? Are we supposed to rebuke demons, engage them, or simply ignore them? And what does it look like to take spiritual warfare seriously without seeing a demon behind every bush?
We also talk about the deeper issue underneath so many of today’s cultural battles: What does it mean to be a human person created in the image of God? From abortion to transgender ideology, we explore what happens when our culture loses a coherent foundation for answering that question.
This conversation went places none of us expected—and it gets practical, theological, and pretty hilarious along the way.

Show notes
After my recent appearance on Alex Clark’s Culture Apothecary, the backlash came fast. Candace Owens featured clips from our conversation on her show, accusations of “Christian grifting” started flying, and a discussion about biblical forgiveness sparked a firestorm of its own.
In this episode, I’m responding—not to every insult or comment, but to some of the bigger issues underneath the controversy. What does the Bible actually mean by forgiveness? Does forgiveness require repentance? What should Christians make of Jesus’ words, “Father, forgive them”? And how do we distinguish biblical forgiveness from simply releasing bitterness or resentment?
I also take a closer look at what I call “confident mocking”—when ridicule, accusations about motives, and sheer certainty can masquerade as an argument. We’ll talk about conspiracy culture, intuition versus objective truth, the burden of proof, and why “asking questions” doesn’t automatically make a claim reasonable or true. Most importantly, how can Christians practice real discernment without becoming mockers ourselves?
Finally, I respond to a couple of questions from recent episodes about deconstruction, including the relationship between faith in Christ and faith in Scripture—and why our ultimate foundation must be the person and authority of Jesus Christ.
At the end of the day, this isn’t about winning an internet fight. It’s about truth, humility, discernment, and keeping the gospel of Jesus Christ at the center of everything.

Show notes
In Part 1 of my conversation with Matt Schmidt, we explored his argument that many deconstruction stories reveal a deeper problem: faith that was ultimately built on something other than the person and authority of Jesus Christ.
In Part 2, we put that thesis to the test by watching and analyzing real deconstruction stories posted online. We hear from former Christians whose faith unraveled over questions about morality, the Word of Faith movement, biblical criticism, the Epic of Gilgamesh, the nature of faith, and more.
With each story, we ask four important questions: What was their faith originally built on? What caused the first crack? What replaced that foundation? And was Jesus himself ever really the problem?
Along the way, Matt and I discuss why Christianity must ultimately be grounded in the person, work, and authority of Jesus Christ—and why understanding what someone is actually rejecting may be crucial to helping those who are deconstructing reconsider the faith they left behind.

Show notes
Why do people really deconstruct their Christian faith? Church hurt, hypocrisy, doubts about the Bible, science, sexuality, and politics may trigger a crisis—but what if they aren’t the root cause?
After years of studying deconstruction stories and having thousands of conversations about Christianity, apologetics, and evangelism, Matt Schmidt has noticed a striking pattern: often, the faith that eventually collapses wasn’t actually built on the unique authority of Jesus in the first place.
In this episode, Matt joins Alisa to unpack what happens when our faith is built on a pastor, church, parents, personal experience, theological system—or even the need to have every difficult biblical question resolved. They discuss why Jesus’ life, miracles, death, and resurrection must be the foundation, how His authority grounds our confidence in Scripture, and how parents and churches can help Christians build a faith sturdy enough to withstand serious questions and doubt.

Show notes
In Part 1, former Point Loma Nazarene University students Noah and Ashley Shaw shared their firsthand experiences with progressive Christianity on campus. In Part 2, we bring the receipts. We examine what PLNU publicly claims to believe and compare it with what professors are actually teaching, publishing, promoting, and platforming.
From PLNU connections to Queering Wesley, Queering the Church, to professors contributing to a book arguing that the Nazarene Church should become fully LGBTQ+ affirming, to academic work incorporating transgender identities and abortion into discussions of motherhood, the evidence raises serious questions about how deep the theological drift goes. And because every PLNU student is required to take multiple theology courses, Noah and Ashley argue that these influences aren't confined to some obscure corner of campus.
We also investigate progressive churches connected to PLNU faculty, controversial chapel speakers, process theology, and what happens when Christian leaders refuse to confront false teaching.
If you're a Christian parent considering PLNU, a current student, or anyone concerned about theological drift in Christian institutions, this is an episode you don't want to miss.

Show notes
For the first time, John and Korey Cooper of the Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum rock band Skillet are breaking their silence about the church abuse that devastated their family and turned their community against them.
For years, the Coopers were deeply embedded in Korey’s lifelong church, never realizing that its leadership embraced beliefs and practices associated with the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). Those beliefs weren't clearly disclosed, but as John and Korey began to understand what was really being taught and practiced behind the scenes, they started asking questions—and everything changed.
What followed were prophetic words, accusations, pressure to submit to spiritual authority, fractured family relationships, and efforts to turn members of their own community against them. With Korey’s brother-in-law serving as the church’s “apostle” and her father remaining an elder, walking away came at an enormous personal cost.
We also examine the theology and practices of the NAR, the dangers of unaccountable spiritual authority, how prophetic claims can be used to manipulate people, and what happens when questioning church leaders is treated as questioning God.
In this raw and deeply personal conversation, John and Korey take us into their darkest moments—how spiritual abuse shook their faith, what kept them from walking away from Jesus, and what anchored them when everything else fell apart.

What happens when students attend a Christian university expecting their faith to be strengthened—but instead encounter professors who question Scripture, reject the atonement, and blur biblical teaching on sexuality?
Former Point Loma Nazarene University students Noah and Ashley Shaw share what they they experienced firsthand—from being taught that Moses wasn’t real and hearing a radically different definition of the gospel, to LGBTQ activism on campus and the backlash they faced when they spoke up. Has Point Loma Nazarene become progressive? We explore that question in the next two episodes of the podcast.

Show notes
What do radical Islam, LGBTQ ideology, cultural Marxism, socialism, and the Democratic Party have in common? On the surface, their beliefs—and even their ultimate goals—can radically contradict one another. So why do they so often end up politically and culturally aligned?
In this episode, Alisa sits down with Frank Turek and Phoenix Hayes, authors of The War on Reality: Recovering Truth in a World That Celebrates Lies, to expose the worldview underneath some of the strangest alliances shaping our culture. They unpack the oppressed-vs.-oppressor framework of cultural Marxism, the growing influence of radical Islam, the algorithm’s role in distorting how we see reality, and why Christians can’t simply retreat from cultural and political battles.
At the center of it all is a much bigger question: What happens to a culture when objective truth is replaced by “your truth” and “my truth”? Frank and Phoenix argue that the war on reality didn’t begin with politics—it begins with the question, “Has God really said?”
This conversation is provocative, funny, and deadly serious—and a challenge to Christians to know what they believe, recognize the ideologies competing for our culture, refuse to stay silent, and stand firmly on the ultimate source of truth: Christ.

Show notes
Michael Jones and his family were doxxed and threatened for publicly challenging Islam. Their personal information was exposed, the threats became serious enough that they had to move—and Michael refused to be silenced.
In this episode, Michael, creator of Inspiring Philosophy, joins me for a crash course on what Christians need to know about the threat of radical Islam. We unpack the origins of Islam, Muhammad and the Quran, the Hadith, Islam’s treatment of women, its political dimensions, what Muslims believe about Jesus and Allah, and why Michael believes Christians need to understand what Islam’s foundational texts actually teach.
Michael shares practical ways Christians can engage Muslim friends and neighbors, challenge the Islamic worldview, and ultimately point Muslims to the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Islam is growing. Christians need to understand what it teaches—and we cannot be afraid to talk about it.

Show notes
Ryan Bomberger came ready to challenge sacred cows and say the things many Christians are afraid to say.
Conceived in rape and placed for adoption, Ryan has called himself “the 1% used to justify 100% of abortions.” Now, as founder of the Radiance Foundation and author of Should Have Been Aborted, he has spent decades fighting for the dignity of every human life.
In this episode, Ryan holds nothing back as we dig into the surprising intersection of abortion, racism, and critical race theory. Why does CRT teach us to scrutinize racial disparities throughout American society, while the enormous racial disparity in abortion receives comparatively little attention? And what happens when churches adopt secular frameworks for understanding race instead of beginning with Scripture? Ryan argues that Christians have allowed fear of being labeled “racist” to silence them—and directly challenges some of the books, movements, and ideas that have shaped the evangelical conversation about race since 2020.
We also turn the spotlight on the pro-life movement itself. Ryan doesn’t give Republicans a pass, criticizing what he sees as the GOP’s retreat on abortion and the Trump administration’s weaknesses on key life issues.
But this conversation isn’t just about politics. It’s about the church. Ryan challenges Christians who are so concerned with being “winsome” that they become afraid to confront lies, defend the vulnerable, or risk being called names. He explains why speaking the truth in love sometimes requires courage, clarity, and a willingness to be unpopular.
This is a provocative, practical conversation about abortion, race, courage, and what it looks like to be beholden to no one but God and His Word.

Show notes
Few topics generate more emotional pushback among Christians than forgiveness. Are Christians required to forgive everyone—even when the person who hurt them refuses to repent? And if forgiveness is conditional, does that contradict Jesus’ command to forgive?
In this episode, I sit down again with Teasi Cannon, author of Counterfeit Forgiveness: How a Modern Myth Betrays Victims, Protects Abusers, and Corrupts the Gospel, to respond to the biggest objections to the conditional view of biblical forgiveness.
We tackle passages like Mark 11:25 and Jesus’ prayer from the cross, “Father, forgive them,” and ask whether requiring repentance makes forgiveness transactional. We also discuss how to recognize genuine repentance and what happens when an offender never repents, is unavailable, has died, or is unsafe.
Most importantly, we address the concern at the heart of this debate: Does conditional forgiveness leave victims trapped in bitterness or unable to heal? Teasi explains why rejecting therapeutic forgiveness does not mean holding onto bitterness, refusing to love your enemies, or abandoning healing—and why forgiveness, reconciliation, restoration, justice, and trust need to be understood as distinct biblical categories.
Is conditional forgiveness really a new or fringe idea—or has therapeutic culture reshaped the way many Christians understand forgiveness? This conversation goes straight to Scripture to ask what God actually requires of us when we’ve been sinned against.

Show notes
At just 18 years old, Ava Calhoun is taking a microphone to college campuses and city streets to ask strangers a simple question: When do you think life begins? And remarkably, she’s actually changing minds. Several people who entered conversations with her holding pro-choice views have walked away persuaded of the pro-life position.
In this episode, Ava joins me to break down what she’s learned from having face-to-face conversations about abortion: how to ask good questions, how to respond to the arguments she hears over and over, and how to remain calm and respectful when the person on the other side is hostile. We also talk about why curiosity can be more effective than trying to score a “gotcha,” how to handle questions you don’t know how to answer, and why Christians shouldn’t measure the success of a conversation solely by whether someone changes their mind on the spot.
Then we put those strategies to the test by reacting to viral TikToks making some of today’s most common arguments for abortion—including claims that the Bible never condemns abortion, that life begins at first breath, and that Christians and pastors can be pro-choice.
This is an especially important episode to share with teenagers and young adults. Ava demonstrates that you don’t need to be an expert or have a theology degree to make a difference. You can learn to think clearly, ask good questions, speak the truth with courage and gentleness—and maybe even change someone’s mind.

Show notes
Why are young men and young women increasingly moving in different cultural and political directions? In this episode, Alisa sits down with Dr. Corey Miller, president of Ratio Christi, to discuss trends shaping higher education, the church, and Western culture.
They explore the growing gender divide on college campuses, the rise of cultural apologetics, the role of empathy in persuasion, and why today's campus debates often become tomorrow's cultural norms. Dr. Miller also shares insights from decades of engaging students and faculty on university campuses, discussing topics such as worldview, morality, identity, and the challenges Christians face when engaging contemporary cultural issues.

#394 The Case FOR Equal Protection for the Preborn | Ginna Cross

Show notes
In Part 2 of our series on equal protection for the preborn, Alisa sits down with Ginna Cross, co-CEO of Alliance Family Services, to hear the case for why equal protection should be pursued now—not later. Grounded in a deep conviction that Scripture demands equal justice for every human being made in God's image, Ginna argues that Christians should advocate for laws that protect preborn children the same way they protect every other innocent person.
Together, Alisa and Jenna discuss:
What "equal protection" actually means
Why some pro-life leaders oppose equal protection legislation
The biblical case for equal protection
Common objections, including concerns about criminalizing women
What happened behind the scenes with equal protection bills in Tennessee and other states
The differences—and similarities—between the pro-life and abolition movements
Why this debate matters for Christians who want to think biblically about justice, law, and the sanctity of human life
Whether you agree with Scott Klusendorf's strategic concerns from Part 1 or with the arguments presented by Ginna Cross in this episode, this two-part series is designed to help you hear the strongest case from each perspective so you can think through one of the most significant debates in the pro-life movement today.

Show notes
Equal protection for the preborn has become one of the biggest and most divisive debates in the pro-life movement. Everyone agrees abortion ends the life of an innocent human being. Everyone wants to see abortion end. The disagreement is over how Christians should get there.
In this episode, Alisa sits down with pro-life apologist Scott Klusendorf for a thoughtful and friendly debate about whether pursuing equal protection legislation right now is the best path forward.
Scott argues that while equal protection is the right destination, pushing for it today could actually undermine the pro-life movement and cost lives. Alisa, who supports equal protection, challenges his position while seeking to understand the strongest case against it.
Topics include:
What equal protection actually means
Incrementalism vs. abolition
Should women ever be prosecuted for abortion?
Lessons from William Wilberforce and the abolition of slavery
Why worldview—not just politics—is at the heart of the abortion debate
Whether pursuing equal protection now is wise or premature
Next week, Ginna Cross joins the podcast to make the case for equal protection and explain why she believes it is the only consistent application of justice for the unborn.

Charlie Kirk's assassination sparked an explosion of conspiracy theories. Many of those claims, amplified by Candace Owens, have accused eyewitnesses, Charlie's friends, and even TPUSA of participating in a massive cover-up.
In this episode, Frank Turek responds directly.
Frank was with Charlie the day he was murdered. He rode with him to the hospital. He has also become one of the primary targets of these accusations.
We examine the biggest claims one by one:
Was there really drone footage?
Did Frank change his story about his cell phone?
Did he perform CPR?
What does credible eyewitness testimony actually look like?
Why should Christians care about conspiracy theories?
This conversation goes beyond one tragic event. It's about truth, evidence, discernment, and the biblical responsibility to reject slander, baseless accusations, and defend those who are being unjustly attacked.

Was Phoebe the first female preacher? Was Junia an apostle? Can women preach, teach, or host Christian podcasts?
These questions are fueling some of the biggest debates in evangelicalism today.
In this episode, Denny Burk joins me to separate biblical complementarianism from the caricatures.
We tackle the Al Mohler controversy, the real meaning of 1 Timothy 2, whether Phoebe preached Romans, whether Junia was an apostle, and how Christians should think about women in ministry without going beyond—or falling short of—what Scripture teaches.

Is Women of the Word by Jen Wilkin a reliable guide for learning how to study the Bible?
With more than 250,000 copies sold, Women of the Word has become one of the most widely recommended books on Bible study for Christian women. But does it offer a biblically sound approach to interpreting Scripture?
In this episode, I take an in-depth look at Jen Wilkin's bestselling book, examining its central claims, evaluating its approach to hermeneutics, and comparing its teaching with biblical principles for handling God's Word.
Along the way, we'll discuss:
Why it's important to ask what a passage meant before asking what it means for us.
The relationship between the mind, the heart, and spiritual transformation.
Common mistakes Christians make when studying the Bible.
Why context matters—and why Scripture must interpret Scripture.
The difference between description and prescription in biblical narratives.
How our view of the Bible shapes the way we read it.
Practical principles that can help you grow in biblical literacy.
I'll also share several of my own Bible study tips, recommend additional resources for going deeper, and explain why sound Bible study matters for every Christian.
Whether you're just beginning to study the Bible or you've been reading it for years, this episode will challenge you to think more carefully about how we approach God's Word.

What do you do when you pray for healing...and God says yes? What do you do when He says not yet—or not in the way you hoped?
In this episode, I sit down with Corley Spell, co-founder of Good Ranchers, to hear the remarkable story of her battle with melanoma. Diagnosed while pregnant with her fourth child, pressured to abort her baby, and later facing a life-threatening recurrence that left her bedridden, Corley shares how God met her in the darkest moments of her journey.
Together, we wrestle with some of the hardest questions Christians ask:
Does God still perform miracles today?
Why does God heal some people but not others?
Should Christians pray for physical healing?
How do we trust God when the answer isn't what we hoped for?
What does it look like to surrender completely to God's will while still believing Him for a miracle?
This is not a formula for healing or a blueprint for medical decisions. Every cancer journey is different, and Corley repeatedly encourages listeners to work closely with qualified medical professionals and seek the Lord's wisdom for their own circumstances.
Whether you're walking through cancer yourself, caring for someone who is, or simply wrestling with questions about suffering, faith, and God's sovereignty, I hope this conversation encourages you to trust the Lord—whatever His answer may be.
