Patti Height thought she had finally found freedom—identity, love, acceptance, success. But beneath it all was confusion, trauma, addiction, and pain. In this gripping conversation, she shares how God interrupted everything and radically changed both her life and the life of the woman she was living with—on the same day.

From same-sex relationship to sisters in Christ, Patty’s story is a powerful testimony of repentance, healing, and the transforming power of Jesus. She also speaks candidly about gender confusion, abuse, false identity, sanctification, and the hope available to anyone who feels stuck.

This is a raw, emotional, gospel-centered conversation about truth, freedom, and the God who still saves.

Christian nationalism is one of the most debated and misunderstood issues in the church today. Is it simply a smear label used against conservatives—or is there a real movement seeking to reshape America’s political and religious order?

In this episode, Dr. Bill Roach joins me to break through the confusion. We discuss the many competing definitions of Christian nationalism, the factions claiming the label, and why clarity matters. Dr. Roach explains the historical roots behind modern Christian nationalist thought, how some versions challenge religious liberty, and why others frame it as a return to America’s founding principles.

We also examine parallels between the woke left and what some call the woke right, the dangers of authoritarianism from either side, and how Christians should think biblically about politics, freedom, and truth in a polarized age.

Today’s students are stepping into a cultural landscape unlike any generation before them—one shaped by hyper-personalization, competing worldviews, and constant digital influence. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jonathan Morrow to unpack what that means for young Christians preparing for college—and the parents guiding them.

Jonathan, director of cultural engagement at Impact 360 Institute and author of Welcome to College, explains why the stakes are higher than ever. We break down five major cultural challenges students are facing right now—from shifting views on truth and identity to the impact of social media, AI, and progressive ideology on faith formation.

We also go deeper than surface-level issues. This conversation explores the underlying forces shaping this generation: a loss of confidence in knowing truth, the rise of relativism, and a growing culture of tribalism where power—not persuasion—drives belief. If students are being trained to see reality as customizable, how do they hold onto objective truth?

This episode is both diagnostic and practical. We discuss how students can develop a resilient, well-reasoned faith—and how parents can proactively prepare their kids before they ever step onto a college campus. Whether your student is heading to a secular university or a Christian college, the cultural pressures are real—and they’re not going away.

Topics include:

The five biggest cultural challenges facing college students today

Why truth is now seen as personal—and how that impacts faith

The role of social media and digital discipleship

How progressive ideas are influencing Christian institutions

What parents can do now to prepare their kids for long-term faith

If you want your student to not just survive college—but graduate with a stronger, more grounded faith—this conversation lays the foundation.

Why does God allow suffering—and how can it actually be used for good?

In this episode, I’m joined by Clay and Jean E. Jones to explore one of the hardest and most personal questions people ask: not just why evil exists, but how God works through real, painful trials. Drawing from their new book How Does God Use Suffering for Our Good?, they share both theological clarity and deeply personal experiences—including miscarriage, infertility, serious illness, and ongoing battles with cancer.

We discuss the difference between evil and suffering, why our expectations of entitlement shape how we process pain, and how an eternal perspective changes everything. Clay and Jeannie also offer practical tools—like keeping a “truth journal”—to help you navigate suffering with clarity and hope.

This conversation is honest, grounded, and deeply practical for anyone trying to make sense of hardship without resorting to shallow answers or empty optimism.

In this episode, Alisa sits down with Jac Marino, a former self-described sorceress involved in ritual magick to explore her journey out of the New Age and occult. Jac shares how subtle ideas like manifestation, “Christ consciousness,” and spiritual autonomy drew her in long before she recognized the danger.

This conversation goes beyond surface-level warnings. Jac explains how she was lured into the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, and how the occult often disguises itself as harmless—or even “spiritual." She explains why so many people, including those raised in the church, are being pulled toward these deceptions today. From the promise of control and identity to the blending of Jesus into New Age frameworks, she unpacks the core beliefs that make these systems so appealing—and so deceptive.

You’ll also hear practical insight for parents and Christians navigating a culture where these ideas are no longer fringe, but trending. If you’ve ever wondered why practices like manifestation, crystals, or tarot feel so normalized—or how to discern truth from counterfeit spirituality—this episode provides clarity.

Jac’s new book, Insnared: Overcoming the Darkness of the New Age and Occult with the Light of God’s Truth, releases July 7. Pre-order today: https://a.co/d/09SWMGdH

What happens when the leaders you trusted are exposed—and the system you believed in starts to collapse?

In this episode, I sit down with Naomi Wright, founder of Be Emboldened, to walk through the real fallout of spiritual abuse, cover-up culture, and false authority in the church. Naomi shares her firsthand experience growing up in a cult, escaping it, and rebuilding her understanding of God, truth, and Scripture from the ground up.

We also address the growing controversy surrounding Bethel and the broader New Apostolic Reformation movement—where recent exposures have raised serious questions about prophecy, leadership, and accountability in the church.

We dig into the broader implications of these revelations, including patterns of manipulation, fake prophecy, and the protection of abusers. More importantly, we answer the question many are asking right now: What next? 

This conversation tackles:

How to recognize spiritual abuse and high-control leadership

Why people stay—and why leaving is so difficult

The psychological and theological aftermath of deception

How to rebuild discernment and trust in Scripture

Practical steps for individuals and churches moving forward

If you’re processing disillusionment, questioning what you’ve been taught, or trying to help others navigate the aftermath—this episode provides clarity, categories, and a path forward grounded in truth.

Is “forgive and forget” actually biblical — or a modern therapeutic idea Christians have absorbed without realizing it? In this episode, I sit down with Teasi Cannon to challenge one of the most widely accepted assumptions in church culture: that forgiveness is primarily about personal emotional freedom.

We unpack the biblical pattern of forgiveness as something tied to repentance, truth, and real relational restoration — not merely an internal process of releasing bad feelings. The conversation tackles hard questions many believers wrestle with: What about unrepentant offenders? Does healing require forgiveness? How should Christians think about reconciliation after abuse or spiritual harm?

This episode exposes how a feelings-centered model of forgiveness became dominant and why redefining forgiveness matters for the gospel itself. If you’ve ever felt confused, pressured, or spiritually burdened by popular teachings on forgiveness, this discussion offers a framework designed to bring clarity and biblical precision.

Did Adam and Eve really exist — and does it actually matter for the gospel?

In this episode, we continue our exploration of origins, tackling some of the most controversial questions Christians are asking today. From theistic evolution to intelligent design, from young-earth to old-earth views, the debate often centers on science. But what’s really at stake is theology. Was Adam a real, historical person — the sole biological ancestor of the human race — or merely a symbolic representative? And how does the answer shape our understanding of sin, salvation, and the authority of Scripture?

I’m joined by Dr. J. R. Miller for a thoughtful and candid conversation about how to interpret Genesis, what modern origin models claim, and why the historic Christian view of Adam has been so foundational to the gospel message. We also discuss areas where faithful believers may disagree — while wrestling honestly with the theological consequences of redefining humanity’s beginnings.

This episode will challenge you to think more deeply about what you believe, why you believe it, and how the story of the first man connects to the story of the Second Adam.

What if the real victims of marriage redefinition were never the adults—but the children?

In this explosive conversation, Katie Faust joins me to talk about her bold new Greater Than Campaign and why it’s time for Christians to stop whispering about marriage, family, IVF, surrogacy, and child commodification. Katie argues that when we center adult desire, children always lose—and the fallout of Obergefell has proven exactly that.

We discuss why children need a mother and a father, how marriage law reshaped parenthood law, why conservatives have often made the wrong argument, and how the church must recover the courage to speak clearly about what is best for kids.

This episode is not just about politics. It’s about justice for children, biblical truth, and answering the biggest cultural questions of our time.

We cover:

Why Katie says it’s time to end gay marriage

How Obergefell changed parenthood, IVF, and surrogacy

Why children—not adults—are the true victims

How the church can stop playing defense

Why today’s culture war is really about what it means to be human
