The Heidi St. John Podcast

In August of 2019, the New York Times inaugurated the 1619 Project. Their goal was to offer a new origin story of the American Republic. They argued that 1776 is not the origin of America as we know it, but rather, 1619, the year the first slaves were brought to American shores, as our true origin. They, of course, sought to link every supposed evil and ill of the 21st century with the racist heritage of 1619, America's “real” birthday. 

If you want to understand what ideas and individuals brought us third trimester abortions, infanticide, euthanasia, pornographic quote, sex ed, critical race theory, transgenderism, transitioning of children, drag queen story hours and arresting pro-life sidewalk counselors, you've got to go back not to 1619, but to 1916, a year that my guest today says represents nothing less than civilization's pivot point. Seth Gruber is the founder of the White Rose Resistance and he's here today to talk about his new book and film, 1916. You guys buckle up. This was a fantastic conversation. You're gonna be encouraged.

NOTE: This may be a difficult conversation for children, so I recommend listening ahead of time.

Our progressive culture is trying to redefine females and the role we play in society lying to our girls and young women. It is imperative that we have the courage to stand up to the people pushing these lies and defend what we know is right. Lisa Bevere joins me today to discuss what she’s doing to lead Christians in this cultural conversation, and I know you’ll be encouraged.

A teacher finally admits that public education is the best vehicle for social change as she speaks at a rally for Kamala Harris. (Now do you believe me?) At the Olympics we see the effects of this indoctrination played out in real life as humans with XY chromosomes win the female Boxing competition as the International Olympic Committee says they are confused about how to scientifically determine if an athlete is truly a male or a female. Dallas Malloy joins me today to share her perspective as a female boxer as we talk about what like looks like the further we go down this road of living a lie in our culture.

“The surrender to grace is the most crazy difficult faith decision that we will ever make.” 

Dan and Danielle Friess lived lives struggling with porn and lust, an eating disorder, pain, anxiety, depression, pride, drowning in shame and legalism and had their lives radically changed by a saving faith in Jesus. This shocking understanding of a true grace turned their life upside down. 

Dan says, “What I would want to say for anyone that’s listening that may have perspective on the Latter Day Saints, our journey isn’t what people think.”

Don’t miss this captivating story of a couple who courageously stepped out of the boat to follow Jesus in a full surrender to His free gift of grace.
