Episode #276

Why is IOWA so important to presidential elections? Ryan shares why his home state gets so much political attention every four years - and why it's good for America.

• The Iowa caucuses are the first electoral test in presidential races. Since 1972, only one candidate has won the presidency without winning Iowa or New Hampshire.
• To succeed in Iowa, candidates must build an effective statewide organization and genuinely connect with a diverse range of voters.
• Iowa offers a valuable test of a campaign's grassroots strength essential for national victories. Candidates interact with urban, rural, young, old, and diverse demographics.
• Performing well provides momentum through heavy media coverage. Surprises in Iowa shape national perceptions of candidates.
• Poor showings often lead candidates to drop out and hurt fundraising and volunteers.
• The mix of demographics and need to campaign locally are why Iowa helps gauge a candidate's broader appeal. Coastal states offer more homogeneous electorates.
• The Iowa caucuses play an influential role in propelling winners forward and sinking losers. Their first voting status solidifies political importance.

Episode #274

Ryan shares the truth surrounding the George Floyd case that started in May 2020. This episode will detail how Derek Chauvin was convicted of contradicting charges and the problem of politicians weighing in on pending trials. Despite the public outcry and narrative, the evidence shows that Floyd's death was far from an obvious murder case. We also discuss how recently released court documents reveal more details about the George Floyd case. Including comments from Prosecutor Amy Sewasy, who shared that the medical examiner found no medical evidence George Floyd died from strangulation or asphyxiation.

We must Pray for truth and integrity in our criminal justice system. Juries must make decisions based solely on trial evidence, not public sentiment.

Episode #273 

October 31st is Reformation Day - On this episode, Ryan shares about the greatest transformation of Western society since the apostles first preached the Gospel throughout the Roman empire.

This episode commemorates the Protestant Reformation started by Martin Luther's posting of the 95 Theses on October 31, 1517.

Ryan provides background on how Luther was initially trying to reform, not break from, the Catholic Church. He particularly disagreed with the selling of indulgences for the remission of sins, which had no biblical basis.

Luther translated the Bible into German so common people could read God's Word. He promoted the priesthood of all believers - direct access to God without needing a priestly mediator.

The episode highlights Luther's five solas recapturing biblical doctrine: Scripture Alone, Christ Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone, and Glory to God Alone.

Ryan explains how Luther affirmed the equal status of all vocations pursued in faith, debunking divisions between "sacred" and "secular" callings. His views upheld the dignity of ordinary work done with sincerity.

In all, Luther opened God's Word to the masses, granting them personal connection with the Divine. His reforms continue to shape Christianity 500 years later.

Episode #270

On this episode, Ryan discusses how we must know the Bible for ourselves. We must constantly take what others teach directly to the Word ourselves. We cannot simply take for granted what others are teaching. Ryan discusses how we can become like the Bereans, who searched the scriptures daily to validate what they were being taught. Let us do the same and live like the Bereans.

Acts 17:11 - Now these Jews [of Berea] were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.
