Episode 256-Part 1: Biden and the DNC- The guys discuss Biden, the polls, and the reality of what we witnessed during the first Presidential debate and Biden's insistence on finishing the race. Will he? What's happening behind the scenes at the DNC? Part 2: Are Conservative Christians "Shooting Themselves in the Foot?"- Do Conservative Christians have a problem with looking at specks in the eyes of others while missing the logs in our own? Do we shoot ourselves in the foot by pretending to be the morality police when we sin and cause scandals amongst ourselves?

Episode 255- Is America a Christian Nation? Were we ever? Is it fair to say that today's Democrats are anti-American? Is America becoming a Banana Republic? Is America becoming a Marxist nation? What is "Christian Nationalism" and is that really so wrong? As Christians, how do we recognize the difference between "hoping" America turns back to God, versus putting our "Hope in America", instead of Jesus Christ?

Episode 254-The First Trump-Biden Debate of 2024: What to expect regarding questions or topics. What are the biggest obstacles to avoid? Which will each be strongest or most vulnerable on? Can Sleepy Joe handle LIVE questions? Can Donald Trump handle "rigid" guidelines like time constraints and mics being turned off? What must Trump do to win "undecideds" in this debate? Will questions about abortion help or hurt Trump?

"Liberal activists" secretly record Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito making "controversial" statements about morality and "returning our nation to godliness." Should Conservatives be concerned that a couple of the more Constitutional justices are under attack by progressives running a smear campaign against them?

Episode 251-The Trump Verdict-What was the general reaction to the conviction? What are the present legal realities? What about the record fundraising since the verdict? Are undecideds and independents all in for Trump, or have people had enough? Should Christians worry about the long-term effect of defending Trump? How do we honor God in this?

Episode 250-Part 1: The Trump Trial-Will Trump be found guilty? Acquitted? Hung jury? If convicted, will this hurt or help him with Swing voters? How damaged is the credibility of the U.S. judicial system after a kangaroo trial like this? Part 2: June's LGBTQIA+ Pride Month-It will be everywhere, in TV shows, commercials, department stores and more. After last year's backlash, Target stores are scaling back after last year's over-the-top displays and "tuck-friendly" swimwear for kids. Walmart says they are going all out with "Pride Month" displays and merchandise. Nintendo is launching a new "Super Mario" video game transgender character. How should Christians respond to all of this every June?

Episode 249 - Part 1: Israel, Part 2: Harrison Butker

Episode 248-Part 1: Are Republicans Really the Party of the Rich? Part 2: A Pastor Faces Charges for Helping the Homeless--Is That Fair? While it is believed that the Republican Party is the party of the Rich, and the Democrats are the party of the "poor, downtrodden, and disadvantaged, etc." a new survey from Ballotpedia suggests otherwise. In Part 2, a Pastor in Bryan, Ohio faces criminal charges for leaving his church open 24/7 to help minister to homeless people in his community. Fines are up to $1,000 per day. First Liberty was able to get the charges dismissed, but the City has trumped up a whole new set of charges. But is it possible the pastor actually is in the wrong - based on any kind of technicality?
