Hi!

We're back with a discussion the word "Woke."

What does it mean to be Woke?
Can you answer this question?

Wokeism seems to be one of those concepts that "I can't necessarily define it, but I know it when I see it."

In this podcast, we'll provide an answer to that question and some steps on what to do about it, especially as it pertains to the Church.

Earlier this year, a pro-abortion children's book was released called, “What's an Abortion, Anyway?” The book launched with a Kickstarter campaign that raised over 23k. The stated goal is to reach kids with information on "abortion care that is gender inclusive, medically accurate, and age-appropriate." The authors encourage wholesale purchases of the book for donation to children's libraries and schools.

In response, Valerie Silva and Hillary Craig wrote their own children's book, called "ABC - Life in the Womb." A book that teaches children about babies' stages of development in the womb.

We interviewed Valerie Silva about her journey into working with a pro-life organization and writing a children's book to challenge the pro-abortion narrative.

We sat down guest-free to discuss marriage. We get a ton of questions about marriage coming our way, so we took an opportunity to address the five most common. 

1. How do you keep the romance going?
2. How do I know if I should marry my girl/boyfriend?
3. Can you have friends of the opposite sex other than your spouse?
4. How do you keep the (sex) spark going?
5. How do you maintain the marriage roles after the transition to having children? 


Tune in next week for some awesome good news and then our Anxiety episode with Mandy Reedy!

We sat down once again with our original podcast guest to discuss the anxious and chaotic times we live in and how we can stay hopeful for the future.

Gabrielle Clark is suing her son’s highschool after her son failed his sociology class for refusing to acknowledge his white dominance. Gabrielle Clark is black. Her son is biracial. 

North Carolina’s largest K-12 school district holds a conference to combat “whiteness in education spaces.” 

Amazon spent 5,000 dollars to distribute a copy of How to Be an Antiracist to all students in Virginia's Arlington public schools.

The National Education Association, the nations's largest teacher's union, just launched an initiative to teach Critical Social Justice in schools across the country.

A NYC public school mandated their student's parents to "interrogate their whiteness" and identify themselves among the "8 White Identities."

A nation of parents are rallying at school board meetings to speak against an insidious, invasive worldview they name as Critical Race Theory.

We sat down with Samuel Sey of SlowToWrite.com to unpack the Critical Race Theory discourse currently fulminating in the US and around the western world.

We talked soccer, marriage, fatherhood, culture, and plenty of Critical Social Justice.
