Comparison parenting is everywhere — in the pew, the homeschool co-op, and your own head. The dads dig into why we compare spouses, children, and churches…how comparison reveals that we doubt the sufficiency of God's grace…the danger of setting expectations your family can't meet…and how to point your wife and children to the acceptance they already have in Christ.

The Supreme Court just ruled to allow abortion pills to be shipped across state lines. No doubt about it, this is the worst ruling since Roe v. Wade. Every Trump appointee buckled. Only Thomas and Alito dissented. Abortion rates have climbed 19% since Dobbs, and the silence from the conservative church and media is deafening. Where does pro-life America go from here?

"Gosh, darn, heck, OMG”—many of our Christian forebears came to faith by being convicted of such language; yet today it is a light thing for most evangelicals. What do these words really mean, and how seriously should we take them? Kevin and Joshua go to Scripture to ask how much God cares about such language, and whether it is defiling or neutral.

Was Cole Tomas Allen’s assassination attempt motivated by anti-Christian sentiment? His manifesto says otherwise. A member for 31 years in an evangelical church, he tries to justify himself from Scripture. But how did he receive so little grounding in a biblical worldview? Kevin and Bill discuss the church’s failure to teach the law of Christ, the ecclesiastical call to compromise—and what should be done with Allen in a biblically sound church.

Pete Hegseth recently prayed at the Pentagon, embellishing Ezekiel 25:17 with the words of Quentin Tarantino—and putting America’s armed forces in the place of God Himself. Kevin speaks with Jacob Tanner about the propriety of imprecatory prayers…why the government no longer decrees days of humiliation…the reasons Americans are so proud…the pattern of calamity and restoration in our history…and what must happen to avert God’s judgment.

The dads answer a listener question about balancing the needs of your family with the needs of the body. They discuss how your wife and children share in your calling…integrating family economy with ministry work to establish a symbiosis…being discerning about the real importance of common family activities…and how to know when you’re working too much.

Kevin and Bill discuss the shockingly shallow worldview judgments of evangelicals—whether it’s their strange approval of the happy shiny Mormon Jesus, or their enthusiastic endorsement of Project Hail Mary as having a “very strong Christian worldview.” They talk about distinguishing between superficial criteria like being child-friendly, and deeper doctrines like humanistic utilitarianism or evolutionary assumptions. Then they ask if Ryan Gosling’s character is really a hero—and what the film’s central message really is.

Can you be a Christian and skip church? Kevin and Josh take that question straight to Scripture, examining Hebrews 10, Acts 2, and Ephesians 4 to show that the New Testament never envisions a believer disconnected from a local, gathered body. Far from a burden, the church is one of God's greatest gifts...a greenhouse where His people are protected, nourished, and grown.

Israel is behind the biggest LGBTQ festival in the Middle East, and Taiwan and Ukraine also uphold sexual perversion. Meanwhile their Eastern enemies—Iran, China, and Russia—all ban them. So whose side should we be on? Where will God’s judgment come first? And is there a window of opportunity to save the West? Kevin and Bill discuss recent poll data of zoomers, and lay out a path for what the church must do.

Seventy-five percent of Swiss young people skip college — and their youth unemployment rate is 3%. Meanwhile, America's young men are struggling to launch. Kevin is joined by Jonathan Brush, president of Unbound, to talk about the discipleship model Jesus demonstrated and why it still works.
