Tracy and Bernard Tourneur are fighting for freedom to homeschool in France. Having been ordered by the French government to register their son in school, they refused to comply. As a consequence, they’ve been indicted, interrogated and ultimately fled France to return home to the United States with a newfound love and respect for freedom and the constitution of America.

Today’s guest has a fascinating history — from a theologian at a Bible College to earning a master’s degree in political science from Portland State University!  I heard Dr. Joseph at a local church recently and just knew you all needed to hear what he has to say.  Christians!  Don’t sit this out—God would have you influence culture through voting for the Glory of God and the common good.

As many as 104 million people of faith, including 32 million self-identified Christians who regularly attend church, are unlikely to vote in the upcoming 2024 presidential election on Nov. 5 mainly due to lack of interest, research from the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University shows.

Today, the author of this new study, Dr. George Barna joins me to discuss why he believes that “the 32 million Christians sitting in the pews each week who refuse to vote are a game changer. It's low hanging fruit for pastors as they try to motivate those congregants to carry out their civic duty and honor God through their influence for things that matter in our culture."

There are many things in the news right now that can make us feel anxious. From “man-made” hurricanes, to the war in Israel, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and forget that we don’t need to know everything—because we know the One who does. Join me today as I address this listener’s concern, and listen in as HSLDA President Jim Mason joins me to talk about recent attacks on homeschooling.

Every society needs a higher moral authority, or it falls into moral anarchy. Moral destruction leads to the collapse of civilization. Without the internal morality that comes from a higher authority, humans abuse their personal liberty, turning it into self-idolatry leading to the collapse of society (Romans 1:21-28). When a society embraces moral anarchy, God judges that culture by allowing collapse from within or calamity from without. Pastor Phil returns to the podcast today to talk about current events and how Christians should respond to the issues we’re facing.

Washington State has not had a Republican governor for over forty years. FORTY YEARS! Today, I’m joined by the man who I believe could end the string of bad leaders in our state. Dave Reichert is running to bring hope and common sense back to Washington State, and the stakes have never been higher. Listen in as we go beyond the rhetoric to the real issues we’re facing here and around the nation. We’ve been struggling for a long time with high taxes, bad legislation and over-regulation in Washington, but it doesn’t have to be this way.  Together, we can change what’s wrong, fix what’s broken and do what’s right for Washington.

Today I’m honored to be joined by Congressional candidate, Joe Kent. You may remember that we ran for the same seat in 2022— and we have teamed up to help bring Republicans together in this crucial election season. The reason is simple: when Republicans work together—we win. Whether it’s here in Washington State or around the country, it’s time for all of us to form a united front so that we can advance freedom and work toward the restoration of our nation. If you’re ready for a return to common sense policies, limited government and lower inflation, and energy independence, listen in and be encouraged. Let’s vote with one united voice this November!
