Can Christians talk about risqué topics, cuss, tell dirty jokes, and create media and content with violence and dark concepts...and simultaneously have redeeming qualities?

Today, in a very unexpected, unplanned and off color humored interview (it's a way of life!), we belly laugh for 30 minutes and accidentally answer all of your pressing questions in the most non-linear way possible.

In an era where western evangelical media, well, kind of sucks, we catch up with Loor TV's CEO, Marcus Pittman and Jason Farley, and discuss their master plan for a media revolution.

Do we love people as a whole...or do we only love parts of them?

In a world that treats cadavers with more respect than two strangers do at an airport bar, the multi-gen duo dissects the gratuitous status our society has placed on living, breathing souls, and the standard in which we honor each other.

Do we even know what love is at all?

Prop up your feet, grab your tea, and prepare for an explicitly honest conversation in the Moral Tea living room.

Is worship more than a number of hands raised and an emotional response?

And is content creation, filmmaking & media production more than a soft, watered down story?

We need a renaissance not just in contemporary Christian media, but also in the heart behind why we do what we do. In this episode, Renee & Anna Gray sit down with Documentary Filmmakers & Musicians/husband & wife duo, James & Kezia Alford, about finding authenticity in an algorithmic world of Christian pride.

Is humanity responsible enough to handle AI right at our fingertips?

What are the pros & cons?

Will AI become the next globally renowned phenomenon...or robotic tragedy?

Today's tea spill is an honest, nitty gritty conversation and first ever (but friendly!) debate on the ethics of this emerging technology.

Renee & Anna Gray welcome Chase Cappo, founder of "Bible Chat", the first ever AI app to help people interact with the Bible. Defined as the "Smartest Bible robot", kick back as Cappo & the multi-gen duo get straight to the heat on the ethics of AI and its impact on humanity.

It’s time We the People grow a pair.

We believe talking points, cable news and media influencers  without question. Bowing to special interests, many congressmen and women lie to us, while lining their pockets. Yet, we keep quiet and toe the party line.

Cultural Marxism and radical feminism continue to erode ethical values. Truth is most often derived from feelings.

Former politician Christy Stutzman calls for America to step up, and not away,  from calling out the great lies that threaten our nation’s founding documents, morals, and lives. In her book, The Spiritual Price of Political Silence, Christy equips us to stop being Constitutionally swindled and silenced, and become people desperate for freedom.

Words are just words, right?

From every day life to corporate and academic boardrooms, the F bomb seems to be employed, be it by noun, adjective or verb.

The multigen duo discuss the hierarchy of curse words and their usage. Can the use of these words actually harm emotionally? What might their effects be on children? If a Christian, what do we do when we might not say them, but think them?

Check out Renee Leonard Kennedy & Anna Gray Smith as they wrestle with dropping the F bomb.

Cody Morehead, a worship and youth pastor at Heart of the Lakes Church, Michigan, talks  about being adopted, as a baby created in rape.  He touches on  the developing science that points to DNA changes  due to violent acts.

Always after the happy  ever after, Renee Leonard Kennedy and Cody discuss their own experiences as foster and adoptive parents, as well as mentors to the next generations.

The moral of the story the biblical call to step up to the plate—adoption is God’s story, and we should answer the call through parenting or helping others financially, or mentoring.
