Monique did a public comment on Monday night at a local southern CA school board meeting. Tonight, she's doing a deep dive into the new "Ethnic Studies" curriculum that is now required for CA high school graduates. School boards may tell parents, "There is no Critical Race Theory in high school!" but they're lying.

Someone made a video calling Monique out for defending white people. She has some thoughts. She also shares about a bill making its way through the Colorado legislature that would put parents in peril if they don't affirm their gender-confused children.

Monique and Kevin respond to the recent social media beef between Melissa Dougherty, Allie Beth Stuckey and the black church delegates. Kevin had some strong words to address the problem of ethnic idolatry in the black church.

We discuss some preliminary thoughts about reading Gentle Parenting books, and also react to a couple social media reels on gender confusion. What kind of job does one get if you're an interdisciplinary major? Krista really wants to know.

Monique was joined by our friends, Kevin Briggins, and Brandon Smith from the Black and Blurred podcast to talk about a recent article by our friend Woke Preacher Clips. It's a whole long discussion about the decay of race relations in evangelical churches in the last 10 years.

Kevin jumped on the Family Meeting today to share his research about the rumors on social media that thousands of Christians were slaughtered in Syria last weekend. Then Monique and Kevin shared their thoughts about the end of the Black Lives Matter mural in Washington DC and why some people think that CFBU advocates for "wh!t3 suprem@cy."

Krista filled in on the Family Meeting this week. She invited our friend, Pastor George Sayour on to share his perspective about the Andrew Tate phenomenon. In the second half, we discussed Tim Keller's approach to church planting and his idea of third way-ism.

Monique is out of town this week, so Krista is filling in. In a recent interview with Sean Hannity, Vice President Vance mentioned an "old idea" called the "ordering of loves." This caused Christian Twitter to break down. Suddenly everyone was weighing in about a fairly obscure issue in public theology. Krista explains the biblical foundation for this idea in today's Family Meeting.

NOTE: The first 30 minutes of our Family Meeting had technical issues with the audio and has been removed. Here is the last 22 minutes of the discussion.
