What's going on with faith and politics? A new Lifeway Research survey reveals how politics and churches intersect, finding an increasing number of Protestants want their churches to be politically homogenous.

Christian Post reporter Samantha Kamman breaks down the findings and unveils some of the most intriguing elements in the statistics.

The survey raises a number of questions, including: Are churches shaping their churchgoers — or are churchgoers shaping their churches? Listen to Kamman break it all down.

Christian Post reporter Ryan Foley takes you inside the races and referendums that truly matter this election cycle. With the midterms upon us, he breaks down some of the potential upsets and shockers, what might be happening across the U.S., and what things could look like come election day.

Will there be a red wave as some postulate? Foley breaks it all down on this week's "The Inside Story."

What does it look like to actually trust God...with everything? Hobby Lobby founder and CEO David Green is a shining example. He turned a $600 loan and a small business making tiny frames in his basement into a multi-billion dollar empire.

Christian Post reporter Ian M. Giatti recently sat down with Green. Giatti later joined "The Inside Story" to take listeners into the Hobby Lobby secret to success (hint: it involves putting God first).

"It's a culture that he's seeking to create — one that welcomes, one that is transparent about...their faith," Giatti said, noting Green and his family "live out [their] values." 

He continued, "[Green has] found a very successful way to integrate his faith with a successful business model."

"It's the worst child abuse I've ever seen." That's how Christian Post journalist Brandon Showalter describes his in-depth coverage of the transgender movement. Showalter's new docu-series titled "Generation Indoctrination" takes audiences deep into the impact this trend is having on children and families alike.

"This is a medical scandal ... [kids are] being fast-tracked into a pipeline of horror," he said, calling the movement the "greatest assault on the image of God."

Showalter continued, "You can't get Genesis wrong without getting the whole Gospel wrong."

Among the most impacted are parents and families seeking to stop their children's transition. Tragically, this many times leads to a split or other such chaos that damages families and destroys lives.

"It is absolutely horrific what families are enduring when this invades their home," Showalter said.

Christian Post reporter Michael Gryboski joins "The Inside Story" this week to discuss his recent coverage of The Episcopal Church of South Carolina reaching a $500 million settlement with a breakaway Anglican diocese (read the story here).

While the individual story matters, the broader question is: why are denominations splitting? And a secondary curiosity: what are the implications for the church more broadly? Gryboski explores the theological battles at the root of the chaos and why it matters.

Are churches properly handling spousal abuse? What happens when pastors don’t give men and women in need the proper guidance? 

Brandon Showalter, a reporter with The Christian Post, breaks down the inside story on this important topic impacting Christian communities.

Don Ogden, the late founder of the music department at Grace College & Seminary in Winona Lake, Indiana, was well-liked and by all accounts a Christian leader, but, according to allegations, he purportedly abused scores of young boys over the course of decades.

"Ogden, who fathered two daughters and a son, and served a combined 42 years at two area churches, including the Winona Lake Grace Brethren Church, retired in 1993 after signs that he was hiding an ugly truth began to emerge," Leonardo Blair recently wrote on The Christian Post. "The man who had declared that he 'loved being a servant of the Lord' was also a serial sexual predator who had an attraction for sex with young boys, which he once allegedly likened to a 'dentist that eats candy.' Ogden’s addiction was so deep that even at the age of 80, eight years before his death, he was still allegedly actively engaged in his predation."

Blair joins "The Inside Story" to break down the details and explain the tragic elements.

Christian Post reporter Ian Giatti sits down with "The Inside Story" to discuss shocking survey results finding one-third of senior pastors believe a person can get to heaven by being a good person. 

"I wish I could say I am shocked," Giatti said of the results. "So many churches now are kind of moving away from a grounding in biblical theology and moving into other things."

He discusses biblical worldview and some of the other stunning findings about modern-day preachers' beliefs.

Puberty blockers. Disgifuring surgeries. Chaos. Christian Post reporter Brandon Showalter joins the show to unveil a new Fox Nation documentary he's in about the trans movement, and to explain why he's so vocal about related issues. 

In particular, he spoke about the moment he decided to investigate more deeply. 

"Something inside me snapped, and I just thought, 'Well, I've just got to dig into this and scrutinize this more deeply because this is absolutely insane,'" Showalter said. "I just remember thinking to myself, 'They're doing what to children?!'"

He continued. "I just realized the extent of the horror, and I realized someone needed to step up and tell the truth about it." Listen to what Showalter has to say about "one of the most grotesque health scenarios" in America.

Christian Post senior investigative reporter Brandon Showalter joined "The Inside Story" to break down the media's coverage of transgender sex changes on minors and dispel the claim these procedures aren't happening on kids.

"They've just got the public -- a large swath of them -- in a psychological straightjacket of deceit," Showalter said. "The truth will ultimately win out, but we have to keep telling it."

Listen and then read Brandon's op-ed: Yes, trans surgeries are being done on minors. Here's proof.
