We are joined by Them Before Us founder and child rights advocate, Katy Faust, to discuss the impact of the Obergefell decision a decade later. We explore critical insights about why biological family structures matter, whether children’s rights have been compromised, and what Christ-centered, child-first solutions may look like.

Schools are changing fast—far beyond reading, writing, and arithmetic. Dive into a thought-provoking discussion on the challenges parents face in navigating today’s public school system, including the impact of Social Emotional Learning (SEL), the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) model, and controversial policies like California’s AB495 and Illinois’ mandatory mental health screenings for grades 3-12 starting in the 2027-28 school year. As Christian parents, we’re called to steward our children’s hearts and minds (Deut. 6:6–9; Prov. 1:8; Eph. 6:4). Learn how these initiatives, often tied to equity, critical theory, and data collection, may affect your child’s education and worldview, and explore practical ways to stay informed and protect parental rights. Our aim isn’t panic—it’s clarity, so you can make wise, prayerful decisions for your family.

The word ethics is an academic word, but we want to go beyond textbooks and ivory towers and give you a practical guide to understanding what ethics really means. Krista talked to our friend, Dr. Joe Miller and got his help to unpack big questions like what makes something right or wrong and how our everyday choices shape a more ethical society. From small personal decisions to big cultural debates, you’ll learn how to recognize ethical grey areas, apply timeless principles, and stand firm in a world where right and wrong often get blurred.

We sit down with Hillary Ferrer (founder, Mama Bear Apologetics) to explore how honest questions can strengthen, rather than destroy, our faith. In this episode, we unpack the difference between doubt and deconstruction and why definitions matter for a healthy spiritual life. Monique and Hillary look at biblical examples of faithful doubters and learn practical ways to move from uncertainty to deeper trust. If you’re standing in the dark, unsure what you believe, this conversation will remind you that God welcomes your questions and your wrestling heart.

In a culture that’s increasingly vocal (and confusing) about identity, gender, and sexuality, how can Christian parents, grandparents, ministry leaders, and those in close proximity to children guide them with biblical clarity and confidence? In this episode, we’re joined by Elizabeth Urbanowicz, educator, author, and founder of Foundation Worldview, to talk about her upcoming book, Helping Your Kids Know God's Good Design: 40 Questions and Answers on Sexuality and Gender. We’ll explore how to begin age-appropriate conversations with children about God's beautiful design for sex, identity, and relationships.

Join Monique as she dives into a thought-provoking discussion with Dr. Chris Cirucci, a board-certified OBGYN, on gender-affirming care, transgenderism, and biblical truth. They explore critical topics like gender dysphoria, rapid onset gender dysphoria, puberty blockers, and detransitioning, backed by science and faith. Learn why definitions matter, the risks of gender-affirming care, and how Christians can navigate these complex issues with love and truth.

Join Monique for an in-depth and thought-provoking interview with Erin Kunkle from MAVEN to explore a Christian perspective on gentle parenting. In this long-form conversation, they dive into the popular yet controversial parenting philosophy, examining its core pillars—empathy, respect, understanding, and boundaries—and how they align (or don’t) with biblical principles.

Erin, a mother of five and co-host of the MAVEN Parent Podcast, shares her insights on the rise of gentle parenting, its appeal to millennial parents, and the potential dangers of its therapeutic approach when disconnected from a Christian worldview. From discussing the cultural pressures of social media to unpacking key scriptures on parenting, this episode challenges listeners to consider how God’s design for family, authority, and discipline contrasts with modern parenting trends.

Key Questions:

👉 How does gentle parenting handle sin and the human condition?

👉 Can empathy and respect coexist with firm, loving discipline?

👉 What does it mean to raise children who fear the Lord in a world that rejects authority?
