Chris Stigall welcomes Kathie Lee Gifford for an intimate Easter conversation on faith, her storied career—from Regis Philbin co-hosting to Today Show mornings—and her passion for biblical truth. Kathie Lee shares her journey from entertainment to deep rabbinical study, emphasizing the unity of Old and New Testaments as one story of God's love. She discusses her new book Nero and Paul: How the Gospel of Grace Defeated the Ruler of Rome, juxtaposing Nero's depravity with Paul's transformation and the triumph of grace. Kathie Lee critiques legalism, bad translations, and cultural division, urging authentic study of original Hebrew/Greek texts. She reflects on Jesus as architect/stone mason (tekton), the importance of never separating spiritual from secular life, and living consistently in Christ's love. The episode closes with "Faith and Freedom 250," honoring Christian leaders who shaped America's moral foundation across history.
