Today, we sit down with family vloggers Sam and Nia Rader. Back in 2015, this Christian couple's world was turned upside down during a data breach of the infidelity website "Ashley Madison." Because of this breach, names of people who had signed up for the site, seeking to have an affair, became public. Sam's name was included in the leak. The couple then faced an uphill battle as they struggled to heal their marriage, sought true repentance, and dealt with the publicity of their marital struggles. They recently told their story again to Netflix in the streaming company's documentary on the data leak. We ask them to delve into their story and share what they believe Netflix got wrong.

Ep 1019 | The Christian ‘Ashley Madison’ Couple Speaks Out | Guests: Sam & Nia Rader

Today, we sit down with Dr. Lauren Rubal, a Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility physician who focuses on fertility, recurrent miscarriage, painful, irregular, or heavy cycles, and menopause through an integrative lens. Instead of taking a bandaid, one-size-fits-all approach, Dr. Rubal views each patient as an entire person - body, mind, and soul - and works to address the root cause of reproductive disorders. But she wasn't always in this field. Dr. Rubal started her career in conventional medicine, and even practiced IVF. What prompted her to leave and start her own practice? How does Integrative Medicine differ from a more typical medical approach? What's so bad about IVF? Is there any such thing as "ethical" IVF? And why is hormonal birth control an ineffective treatment? We address all that and more.

Ep 1018 | Former IVF Doctor Blows the Whistle | Guest: Dr. Lauren Rubal

Today, we discuss some news in the Baptist church — Pastor Tony Evans has decided to step down due to a "secret" past sin. Is he obligated to confess his sin? In related news, the Southern Baptist Church is expected to outlaw female pastors and issue a resolution urging the government to limit IVF. We discuss what these votes mean for the future of the church. Plus, more of Cru's LGBTQ curriculum recently leaked, and we go through some concerns we have with it.

Ep 1017 | Dr. Tony Evans Steps Down Over Secret Sin

Today, we discuss some stories of Christian courage, including high school student Micah Price and NBA coach Joe Mazzulla. Micah Price was denied his diploma for praising Jesus in his grad speech in violation of school policy, while Joe Mazzulla gave a fiery answer to a reporter at a press conference. In other news, 'Jars of Clay' lead singer Dan Haseltine posted in support of Pride month, using Scripture to justify his position. We explain why he is wrong, and why Christians cannot support same-sex unions. Plus, Ergobaby recently voiced its support for transgenderism in children. And what was up with Joe Biden on D-Day?

Ep 1016 | Time to Ditch Ergobaby

Today, we sit down with medical doctor and researcher Dr. Calum Miller to discuss his pro-life conversion, faith journey, what motivates women to have abortions, and how pro-lifers can fight back. What role does the Christian concept of "dying to self" play in choosing the life of the baby? How can pro-lifers convince women of the value of human life and the evil of abortion? What is "abortion colonialism"? And how can the pro-life movement be proactive in fighting abortion worldwide?
