In this episode, Nathan Pierce of Family Protection Ministries shares important legislative updates on California bills AB 727 and AB 495—two measures recently signed into law that impact families and parental rights. While we’re thankful for key amendments that protect private homeschoolers, these laws still raise serious concerns for families across the state.

Nathan also takes time to honor the life and ministry of Voddie Baucham, reflecting on his profound influence on the homeschool movement, the Church, and Nathan’s own calling to speak truth boldly. Through Voddie’s example, we’re reminded of the urgent need for new leaders to rise up, defend the family, and proclaim the gospel without compromise.

In this second half of Nathan Pierce’s conversation with Mike Schutt of Worldview Academy, they dive deeper into how Christians can think biblically about politics, civic engagement, and public policy. Mike shares practical ideas for teaching students to understand the role of government, stand for absolute truth, and live out their faith in a culture that often rejects it.

They also discuss how young people can get involved now—through debate, mock government, and civic engagement—and why modeling godly involvement as parents matters. Together, they reflect on the loss of key Christian leaders, the importance of passing on a biblical worldview, and the need to raise up a new generation that stands firm for truth and human flourishing.
