Hank Hanegraaff brings an important announcement about a brand-new initiative at the Christian Research Institute: a new podcast titled A Commitment to Reality, hosted by his son, Dave Hanegraaff.

This podcast is not only timely but extraordinarily relevant. Why? Because we live in an era of “reality rot.” To paraphrase Blaise Pascal, we live in an age in which truth is so obscure and falsehood so established that, apart from “a commitment to reality,” you simply cannot know it.

Our new podcast is a powerful complement to CRI’s other podcasts and publications, extending our ministry and mission to a whole new generation of change agents.

Please subscribe to A Commitment to Reality on YouTube for full episodes and clips, and follow wherever you get your podcasts. You can also help spread the word by rating, reviewing, and telling others about A Commitment to Reality.  

And remember: Because truth matters, reality matters. That’s why we must remain committed to reality.

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (02/23/26), Hank celebrates the beginning of the Lenten season, with today being Clean Monday, a day in which we are to leave behind our sinful attitudes. Hank stresses the importance of fasting, one of the predominant themes of the Great Lent. The stomach is like an undisciplined child, forever demanding its fill of empty calories. The discipline of fasting restores one’s balance and self-control.

Hank also answers the following questions:

How can I overcome sin through the power of the Spirit according to Ephesians? Jared - Kansas City, KS (6:03)
I’ve heard you say the flames of hell aren’t literal, so do you believe the waters of the flood covered the entire earth? Brian - Muskogee, OK (8:50)
Do you know anything about God sending Moses and Ezekiel back to preach the Word? Mark - Kalamazoo, MI (15:41)
Are the two natures of Christ easy to understand? Mike - Boone, IA (19:39)

A Commitment to Reality is a podcast for a post-truth—and increasingly post-reality—age.

We are living through one of the most disorienting periods in human history—leaving many to wonder: What is reality? As artificial intelligence accelerates and institutional trust erodes, our shared sense of what is real continues to crumble.

A commitment to reality is a dedication to discerning what is true and developing the discipline to live in alignment with that truth—with reality. This podcast is an apologetic for reality—each episode serving as an intentional act of grounding our existence together as we commit to what is beautiful, good, and true.

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (02/18/26), Hank notes that today is Ash Wednesday, which is the beginning of the forty days of preparation for celebrating the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
