Melissa Dougherty joins the show to speak about her book, “Happy Lies.” It is such a fascinating discussion that we had to make this 2 episodes! If you’ve wondered why the self-love, positivity, and wellness movements sound vaguely Christian, this episode will help explain it. It will also explain the differences between these ideas and Christianity. The most surprising aspect of this is finding out the source of these ideas, which is a movement called New Thought.

A new Barna poll has been released showing that Christianity is in decline in America. However, there have been many other signs that it is increasing. Today we look at the data and discuss what it means to truly be a follower of Jesus.

Today we have Krista Bontrager and Monique Duson from The Center for Biblical Unity join the show to talk about their book, Walking in Unity. Cooper Stuff had the privilege of reading the book and giving it an endorsement last year. The topic of race has become such a flashpoint over the last handful of years, and there is still much to talk about and much to learn. How do we walk in unity?

On the week of Easter, Christianity Today published an article titled, “Was Jesus Crucified with Nails?” The article implicitly calls into question the inerrancy of Scripture, which Cooper Stuff considers unacceptable. Today we cover the story, along with a statement of apology by the author of the article and Christianity Today, but is that enough?

It’s time for a regime change in American evangelicalism—a rise of the normies. Today we look at two responses to the re-election of Donald Trump to illustrate why our current establishment leaders aren’t good “war-time” leaders because they don’t understand what most Christians in this country do: (1) that it is imperative that we stand against the tide of evil in our nation before it’s too late. (2) how we should do that and the difference between right and wrong is actually quite clear, even though Big Eva doesn’t see it.

Trump wins what can only be called the most remarkable political comeback in our lifetimes and possibly in American history. Cooper Stuff shares why we believe this is a sign of hope, and why we must use this time to stand for truth.
