The news of Charlie Kirk’s death and other recent headlines have sparked a wave of reactions on social media, especially in the trend of unfollowing those with differing opinions. On this weeks episode, the team unpack the rise of digital activism, the weight of online pressure, and the vital role of grace and clear communication in relationships. There's a great need to point people back to the gospel as a foundation, reminding us of the need for understanding, compassion, and gospel-shaped engagement in our everyday online and offline interactions.

In this episode of the AC Podcast, Andy Steiger and Wesley Huff reflect on recent tragedies—the anniversary of 9/11, the murder of Iryna, another school shooting, and the assassination of Charlie Kirk. With heavy hearts, they grapple with the weight of public tragedies, the reality of evil, and the fragility of life in a broken world. Their conversation emphasizes the need for hope, prayer, and faith, while calling people to unity, love, and support for one another in times of crisis.

Keep your prayers in your places of worship.” That is the message coming from the province of Québec. With their commitment to state-neutrality regarding religion, the government of Québec is looking to table a bill that will ban prayer in public places. What has led up to this move? How do we square secularism with the freedom of religion? Is religious pluralism a good thing? Can the State be neutral and, if so, how?

Tune in this week as we discuss a topic that will be of interest not only to Canadians but to all who live under a liberal democracy.

We all want to live a flourishing life—but what really leads to lasting happiness? Decades of research point to four essential keys. In this episode of the AC Podcast, Andy Steiger sits down with Doug Peters to unpack the findings, revealing how the data lines up with what the Bible has been saying all along. 

Marriage is what brings us together—but why does the Bible seem so vague about the big day? While Scripture highlights marriage often, it says surprisingly little about the wedding itself. Earthly nuptials are meant to reflect Christ’s love for the Church, but do our modern wedding traditions actually serve that purpose? This week on the AC Podcast, the team unpacks whether our wedding customs are necessary—or even biblical at all.

This week on the AC podcast Ben sits down with apologist and theologian, Dr. Michael Horton. They unpack the growing trend of people embracing “spirituality” while rejecting organized religion. Today, many Christians even dabble in astrology, reincarnation, or just get drawn toward New Age practices. How can the church respond in truth and grace?
Join us for a theological deep dive into how New Age philosophy has seeped into Christian thinking, and how followers of Jesus can engage a culture hungry for meaning but hesitant about the Gospel.

This week on the AC Podcast, we're diving into the timeless conversation: God and science—are they at odds, or more connected than we think?

Andy Steiger sits down with Astrophysicist Dr. Mike Butler, who holds a PhD in Quantum Gravity, to explore the relationship between faith and scientific discovery.
Does science point to the existence of God? Does belief in God make room for science? Or is the supposed middle ground too vague to stand on?

Join Andy and Mike as they unpack these questions and challenge the narrative of "God vs. Science".

At first glance, the command to "honour your father and mother" seems simple—something we associate with childhood obedience and following the rules. But is that all it means?

In this episode, we explore the deeper implications of this biblical command through the lens of apologetics. What does it mean to honour our parents as we grow into adulthood? How do we reconcile this command with moments like Jesus’ interaction with Mary in the temple—or again at the wedding in Cana? Was His honour expressed through obedience, or was it something richer and more complex?

Join us as we unpack the layers of this commandment, moving beyond mere compliance to discover a fuller picture of love, respect, and honour that endures across all seasons of life.

This week on the AC Podcast, Troy, Ben, and first-time co-host—and one of AC's newest filmmakers, Trystan Klassen—take a closer look at the latest Superman movie. But this isn't your standard superhero review.We dig into the Man of Steel's inner struggles, moral choices, and crisis of identity to uncover some surprising biblical parallels. Not just with Jesus… but with Moses! From adoption and exile to hidden identity and reluctant leadership, there’s more biblical resonance here than you might expect.Join us for a fresh take on Krypton's finest that might just change how you see both the film, and the Bible.

If there’s one thing we all share, it’s the reality that one day we’ll say goodbye to someone we love. Loss touches each of us in some form—but how do we walk through it? Grief often leaves us at our most vulnerable, flooded with emotion. Even the most emotionally grounded individuals can find themselves reacting in ways that feel out of character—pushing people away or retreating into isolation.
But what if there’s a better way? What if the gospel offers a more communal, redemptive path through grief?
Join us for this week’s episode as we explore how faith can shape our experience of loss, and what it means to grieve together rather than alone.
