March 05 Israel, Hamas & the Hypocrisy of the Left (ft. Eyal Yakoby)
On this episode of CrossPolitic at AmFest 2025, Knox, Toby, and Gabe welcome Eyal Yakoby from the University of Pennsylvania on to talk about the issue of anti-Semitism on college campuses and why it reveals a deeper crisis of cowardice and hypocrisy in American culture. Going into Eyal's experience witnessing professors celebrate Hamas after October 7th and the congressional testimony where Ivy League presidents couldn't condemn calls for genocide, it's a discussion about faith, politics, and what it means to stand for truth in a world that celebrates terror.

February 25 Deconstructing Islam With the Old Testament (ft. Shahriq Khan & Pastor Greg Armstrong)
Why start with Moses instead of Jesus when you talk to a Muslim? Live at AmFest 2025, Knox, Pastor Toby and Gabe "Waterboy" Rench sit down with ex-Muslim Shahriq Khan and Pastor Greg Armstrong of Christ Underground. Shahriq shares how Christ met him on the night he was most suicidal, and Greg walks through their method: deconstruct the Quran's authority with the Old Testament, then reconstruct the foundations that lead to Christ. One example: the Quran's version of Moses in Midian, two daughters and eight to ten years of work, sounds a lot like Jacob and Laban, not Exodus.
In this episode:
00:00 Welcome from AmFest 2025 with Shahriq Khan and Pastor Greg Armstrong
00:52 The mission of Christ Underground: reaching Muslims with the gospel, not just fighting political Islam
02:20 Shahriq's story: a devout Muslim family in New York, 9/11, college Bible studies, and the night Christ met him
04:30 Strategy: the most foundational difference isn't Jesus, it's the first Adam (original sin and blood atonement)
08:35 Why New Testament-first arguments put Christians on the defensive
09:04 Moses in Midian: two daughters or seven? Comparing the Quran and the Torah
11:43 Specifics, not generalities: what do Muslims claim was changed?
13:22 "Details, not doctrine": accidental change, or intentional? Then what was the motive?
17:17 The story of Joseph: 944 differences, almost ten per verse
18:52 Occam's razor and the manuscript evidence from Spain to Ethiopia to India
19:21 Deconstruction and reconstruction: taking Muslims from the Torah to Christ
20:53 Where to find Christ Underground and their free course
About our guests:
Shahriq Khan is the founder of Christ Underground, a ministry equipping Christians to biblically engage devout Muslims. Raised in a devout Muslim family in New York, he shares his testimony of coming to Christ in this episode. He is based in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Pastor Greg Armstrong is Shahriq's mentor and co-laborer at Christ Underground and lead pastor of Saturate Church in Mississauga, Canada. He teaches their "Master Key" approach to reaching Muslims.

February 10 Spank Your Kids, Save America
On this episode of the Crosspolitic's 10 Shots of Sanity Series, Knox, Toby, and Gabe expose how the viral outrage over Nancy Wilson's spanking story reveals America's complete abandonment of 3,000 years of biblical wisdom on raising children. We trace the unbroken line from the rejection of the rod to overflowing prisons, warehouses for the elderly, and a generation paralyzed by anxiety despite receiving the most therapy in history. Its made clear that once the West decided discipline was abuse, everything from gentle parenting to toxic empathy to a multi-trillion dollar hole in the American economy became not just possible, but inevitable. The only path forward? A return to what built Western civilization in the first place: a biblical household.
