Inquisition: In light of the Bible’s teaching on violence and self-defense, what do we make of the Christian Crusades?

The riots in Minneapolis are a cover for the overwhelming fraud. How should we as believers think about this? How should we discuss truth with other believers on a topic like this and the flood of illegal immigrants? 

ICE agents are not breaking Romans 13; they are upholding it!

Inquisition: How is this current situation in MN different from the George Floyd situation? 

Friends, a lot has happened in the world, the riots in Minnesota are escalating. Don Lemon and company stormed a church in Minneapolis, and the ICE deportations are continung.

What should Christians think about all of this? How are we suppose to make the “right judgements” in such crazy times? Why are some “Christians” defending Don Lemon storming the church? Is it morally wrong for ICE to deport people? How is the left playing games with our compassion to make us think ICE and their actions are wrong?

What is the progressive left actually doing with the flood of illegals and Somali fraud in MN?

Tune in today!

At the start of 2026, we want to go over again how we properly interpret God’s word! Yes, the Bible does have meaning, but Satan is always trying to get us to question the meaning of the text.

What is the long term impact on your children, of not taking Genesis One at face value? 

How third world Christians interpret scripture, and why that is important. 

In the end, it’s a question of authority; what is the source of truth and how can we understand it.

Inquisition: God says it is good to be married. I desire to be married, but am not. How can I keep that from being an idol in my life?

We want to talk about the Malachi series and what it has to do with the renewed interest in Islam, in our country. We have a few well-known figures talking about Islam. The Pope is touting how friendly Muslims can be, Al Mohler is warning about the radicalization of Muslims, and politicians are all over the map. Let’s try to sort this out with a biblical view in mind.

 What does Malachi have to do with believers living in the US when we think about Islam?

How can we properly apply this as US citizens vs. being Israel with a theocracy?

Let’s do a little historical tour. It’s interesting to note the freedom of religion Israel experienced after the Babylonian captivity.     

Israel was given victory and blessing when they were obedient to God. This is very instructive for us.

But how do we make a proper bridge between their day and our day as US citizens?

Consider what senator Tommy Tuberville says about Alabama and Islam. Is the progressive definition of “compassion” really the solution?

The cudgel they used was empathy. Is that even Biblical? 

Now that they have been found out by the actual church members, many of these Woke “Christian” luminaries are on a rehab tour. They are hitting the podcast circuit to say, “We never believed that!”

How should we as Christians respond to this? Should we trust these Christian leaders from the era of toxic empathy and wokeness? What would qualify as viable repentance?
