We go rummaging through the cultural attic, starting with TV theme songs from the ’80s and ’90s—the kind that apparently occupied permanent brain space while more practical information was evicted. That leads us to movies, music, horror franchises, familiar actors, and the peculiar nostalgia that makes an old theme song instantly recognizable decades later.

Then somebody famous dies, and the internet demonstrates that grief is also a competitive event. We get into the rush to update Wikipedia, the speed of celebrity death reporting, and the emotional connection people have to entertainers they knew only through screens and speakers. 

From there, we turn to pets in stores and other public spaces, where the old rules of pet etiquette seem to be undergoing negotiations. We also take on modern art and the argument over whether it reflects cultural decay, confuses the purpose of art, or simply gives everybody something else to argue about.

Finally, we arrive at dental visits and appointment scheduling, because everyday life remains a dependable source of comedy without requiring a screenplay.

This week’s Prison Pulpit was recorded on location in Thessalonica, where I am spending a day or two en route to Istanbul. Join me today in studying some of 2 Thess, and talking about a few specific prayer needs, and then looking at a few folks who were tortured and/or martyred in the Tower of London

I'm your China travel guide in exile, Missionary Ben. Follow me on Twitter/X (@chinaadventures) where I share a new Chinese city to pray for every single day. Email me with any questions, comments, or complaints: bfwesten AT gmail dot com. Finally, check out my personal landing page PrayGiveGo.us for everything else, including our missions website, substack, and books.

Why the Prison Pulpit? 

The goal is to remind people to pray for persecuted believers as Hebrews 13:3 teaches: “Remember those who are in prison, as bound with them.” We’ve looked at Wang Yi and Early Rain Church’s writings in the aftermath of their arrest and attack in 2018, but I’ve also regularly turned to other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand, to give us a voice literally from prison. (Here you’ll find some free PDF books by Richard Wurmbrand: https://richardwurmbrandfoundation.org/)

What happens when technology stops merely serving humanity—and starts trying to redefine what it means to be human?

Pastor George Sayour is joined by author C.R. Wiley to discuss his book Man Made: A Guide to Surviving the AI Apocalypse and the Christian response to artificial intelligence and transhumanism.

They explore the connections between AI, the transhumanist dream, Francis Bacon, human “hacking,” consciousness, golems, robots, and humanity's ancient temptation to overcome the limits God has placed upon us.

Wiley argues that Christians don't need to fear every use of artificial intelligence. But as technology becomes increasingly powerful, Christians must remain rooted in the real, embodied, analog world God created—and resist the temptation to remake humanity in man's own image.

CrossPolitic — Show Notes: The Lindsay Clancy Case, the Culture, and the Church

Gabe, Pastor Toby, and Knox take up the Lindsay Clancy trial — the Massachusetts mother who killed her three children while on a cocktail of psychiatric medications — and work through the case, the culture, and the church's responsibility. They address toxic empathy from women at the courthouse, the pharmakeia connection to CrossPolitic's latest documentary, what Genesis 9 says about moral agency regardless of mental state, why biblical justice demands the death penalty Massachusetts removed in 1947, and what it means for men — fathers, pastors, husbands — to take responsibility for a culture they helped disciple into this.

About CrossPolitic

CrossPolitic exists to put Jesus over Politics and reclaim the public square through bold, joyful, biblically grounded media. We confront the chaos discipling America and build the next generation of Christian media infrastructure. Our mission is simple: all of Christ for all of media for all of America.

Mainstream media is collapsing. Eighty-seven percent of journalists identify as progressive, and even many conservative outlets prioritize profit over principle. Meanwhile, billions of hours of digital content are discipling the world every day. CrossPolitic stands in that gap, producing courageous, entertaining, truth-filled media for households, churches, and leaders across the nation.

What did Jesus mean when He declared that “the gates of hell shall not prevail” against His church?

In this episode of The Based Boomer Podcast, Mike D’Virgilio challenges the idea that Christians should expect the church to remain permanently on the defensive. Gates are defensive structures—and Christ’s promise in Matthew 16 presents a church advancing against the kingdom of darkness, not hiding from it.

Drawing from Matthew 12 and 16, Colossians 1, Ephesians 1, and Revelation 20, Mike examines Christ’s victory over Satan through His death, resurrection, and ascension. The strong man has been bound, Christ reigns, and His people have been commissioned to carry the gospel into the world.

The question isn’t whether the gates of hell will overcome Christ’s church. Jesus has already told us they won’t. The question is whether Christians actually believe His promise.
