Studying Fine Arts From a Biblical Perspective With Sandy Yang

June 28, 2024 09:00 - 40 minutes - 55.2 MB

It seems as if the left has stolen the arts, but just like the rainbow, the arts were God’s idea. But why do fine arts matter to Christians, why is it critical for our children to study them, and most importantly–why are they a valuable alternative to pop culture entertainment? Sandy Yang is here from Cedarville University to share what art really is and how important it is to study it from a Biblical perspective. I loved this discussion, and I know you will, too!

Conservatives Targeted for Exercising Free Speech with Joeylynn Mesaros

June 26, 2024 09:00 - 40 minutes - 37.2 MB

Five years ago, a whole lot of the country sleepily went throughout their average days and election days without having any clue how much it really mattered who was in our local or state offices.

Parents at school board meetings called domestic terrorists, a presumptive republican presidential candidate prosecuted and convicted for years old crimes that had no ...

Angels, Apostates, and New Christianity with Phil Hopper

June 21, 2024 09:00 - 42 minutes - 39.2 MB

Are angels walking among us? Matthew 18 talks about handling a rift between believers. Does it only apply within the same church or does it apply to the church at large? What happens to the salvation of someone who walks away from faith? How do you handle little kids in a quiet church service? How do I know if I’ve “surrendered it all” and I’m really saved? I’m a new Christian. How do I use the “sword of the spirit” and “shield of faith” in my everyday life? And more!  Show Notes: http://he...

May 24, 2024 09:00 - 45 minutes - 41.4 MB

The Biden administration officially abolished Title IX as we knew it because they have decreed that sex is the same thing as gender.
