How can Christians pursue unity without compromising truth—especially in a culture that thrives on division?

Recorded live at the Resolve to Stand National Conference in Rogers, Arkansas, Abigail DeJarnatt sits down with Lucas Miles, Senior Director of Turning Point USA Faith and Senior Pastor of Nfluence Church, to discuss how the Church can stay anchored to biblical truth while navigating theological differences and cultural pressure.

Lucas shares how TPUSA Faith is equipping thousands of churches across the country, why focusing on primary doctrine matters more than ever, and how elevating secondary issues can fracture Christian witness. From discernment in a noisy digital age to guarding against deconstruction, this conversation offers practical wisdom for pastors, students, and Gen Z believers seeking clarity, unity, and faithfulness.

This episode isn’t about winning arguments—it’s about strengthening the Church, standing firm in Scripture, and cultivating unity rooted in the gospel.

Listen now, share with a friend, and be equipped to engage culture with conviction and grace.

“with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” — Ephesians 4:2-3 ESV

Recorded live at the 2025 Resolve to Stand National Conference, Abigail DeJarnatt sits down with Walt Heyer, a fellow at the Family Research Council, to unpack the reality behind gender ideology, transition narratives, and the devastating consequences often left out of the conversation.

This episode equips Gen Z Christians to have courageous, grounded conversations—without compromising biblical truth.

What does it actually mean to “love your body” in a culture that tells us to live our truth—even when it puts us at war with our own biology?

Recorded live at the Resolve to Stand National Conference, Abigail DeJarnatt sits down with Nancy Pearcey, bestselling author and professor, to unpack the worldview beneath today’s most pressing cultural issues—from transgender ideology to sexuality and identity.

This conversation will equip you to engage culture with clarity, compassion, and biblical truth—and help you articulate why honoring the body is not hateful, but deeply loving.

What prepares a Christian to stand when culture pushes back?

In this episode, Abigail DeJarnatt sits down with Tony Perkins, President of the Family Research Council, live from the Resolve to Stand National Conference. Tony shares how grounding your life in Scripture, cultivating spiritual discipline, and choosing courage in small moments forms the kind of character that can stand firm in the fire. 

From his own story of losing his job as a police officer for speaking truth, to the national movement he now helps lead, Tony offers practical, deeply biblical wisdom for Gen Z believers navigating a cultural battleground.

“So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, ‘If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.’” — John 8:31–32, ESV

Is friendship with the world undermining the faith of an entire generation?

In this episode, Counteract Podcast host Grant May sits down with evangelist and content creator Jaden Heard for a bold conversation about biblical authority, lukewarm Christianity, and the pressures shaping Gen Z’s faith. Jaden shares his testimony of being convicted by a street preacher, how Scripture drew him out of rebellion, and why true Christianity requires obedience, holiness, and courage—not cultural compatibility.

Grant and Jaden explore why so many young men are drifting toward Catholicism, how churches have embraced compromise, and what it looks like to stand firm when the world demands your conformity.

This conversation calls believers to reject compromise, return to Scripture, and pursue a faith marked by conviction rather than convenience.

“By this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. Whoever says ‘I know Him’ but does not keep His commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in Him.” — 1 John 2:3-4 (ESV)

Is entrepreneurship one of the most overlooked forms of ministry?

In this episode, Abigail DeJarnatt sits down with Anton Krecic, founder & CEO of Seven Weeks Coffee, live from the 2025 Resolve to Stand Conference. Anton shares the powerful story of how a simple idea—“pro-life coffee”—turned into a national movement that has now donated over a million dollars to pregnancy centers across all 50 states. In this conversation, they explore spiritual entrepreneurship, biblical stewardship, excellence, and why Gen Z Christians should see business as a frontline for cultural impact and kingdom work.

This conversation equips listeners to think bigger about calling, creativity, and the role of faithful Christians in the marketplace—far beyond the four walls of the church.

Is Wicked actually the progressive allegory Hollywood thinks it is?

In this episode, Counteract Podcast Host Allison Lind sits down with Abigail DeJarnatt, breaking down Wicked and Wicked: For Good through a Biblical worldview—exploring propaganda, power, “good vs. evil,” nature vs. nurture, and why the story’s moral framework might not land exactly the way the cultural left believes it does. 

They also explain why Christians must actively evaluate and dissect the stories our culture consumes, because storytelling has always shaped beliefs, norms, and the moral imagination of a generation. What we watch isn’t neutral—and understanding the ideas embedded in popular narratives matters.

“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” — Romans 6:23 ESV
