My good friend Pastor Sam Sanden is here with me today and we are talking about cancel culture within the church and the effect it has on individuals and ministries, while underscoring the crucial role of grace, forgiveness, and restoration. We’re also discussing the significance of actively participating in culture and leveraging our influence for the glory of God, and we can not miss the opportunity to pray for our leaders and support their ministries.

If you stick around for Happy Hour, Sam and I are talking about challenges associated with ministry and Sam passionately shares his commitment to being a beacon of salt and light in the public sphere, urging fellow Christians to exercise their right to vote and even consider running for office. We’re also sharing resources available to churches navigating political involvement.

Join my friend Toni Stockton and I as we delve into the importance of reclaiming our homes, fully embracing the beautiful journey of motherhood, and recognizing the critical influence women hold in shaping our culture. The need for a revival in our families can not be ignored, and we can not underestimate the role of prayer in making positive changes. 

Stick around for Happy Hour as we talk about how we navigate the challenges of marriage and parenting, the significance of homeschooling and delve into the impact of spiritual leadership within our households. We’re sharing how we make a daily prayer routine and stress the value of praying for our children, recognizing the lasting legacy our prayers can create.

We all know our young people are under attack by a godless culture that wants to redefine everything we know to be God’s design. April Readlinger is here today to discuss her interfaith initiative which focuses on using natural law reasoning to address the erosion of the marriage culture. We must learn how to have difficult, uncomfortable, and frank conversations with our children. We’re here to help. 

April will stick around during the extended Happy Hour segment and we’re talking about her personal passion and a specific need for mental health support in the cultural conversation today.

Last week, the Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos are in fact people, and those who destroy them can be held liable for wrongful death. This decision has brought the national debate on when life begins back into the spotlight. Today, Katy Faust, founder of "Them Before Us" joins me to discuss this topic.

Take the Stairs with LaNissir James

It’s so easy for us to want what comes without effort— but the blessing is found when we work through what we have. My friend LaNissir James is here today and we’re talking about the challenges of balancing academics and faith, the importance of nurturing a strong marriage while homeschooling, and the significance of intentional parenting and creating a Christ-centered home. What’s best isn’t easy. We have to make a habit of taking the stairs!

It’s easy to get lost in the day to day tasks of childrearing and homeschooling, but it’s critical we remember what our goals really are for our children. Family discipleship, with a focus on the hearts and character of our children, is so much more important than the academics— more rewarding also. This is your shot in the arm to keep doing the hard thing. It’s worth it! 

During the Happy Hour extended podcast we’re giving direction for homeschooling through the high school years and highlighting priorities as you wrap up the homeschool years with your children.

There are more than several situations to be frustrated about right now, but the Bible is clear on what we are to do in troubled times. I’m talking about that and answering a question from a listener whose daughter in law isn’t calling her and her husband Mom and Dad. 

If you’re a subscriber, stick around for Happy Hour and we’ll be talking about a really ridiculous situation where an elderly woman was fired for not using people’s pronouns and the really sad situation at the southern border.  

At the end of all of it, we fix our mind on truth.
