How do you share your faith with confidence—even when facing tough questions? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sean McDowell, a leading Christian apologist, to break down the strongest evidence for Christ and how to defend your beliefs with clarity and conviction.

As the son of legendary apologist Josh McDowell, Dr. McDowell has spent years equipping Christians to engage in meaningful conversations with skeptics, lukewarm believers, and people of other faiths. Whether you’ve hesitated to speak up or felt unprepared in the moment, this episode will give you the tools to share the Gospel boldly.

The trad-wife trend tells us that a happy, well-run family relies on dad working outside the home while mom stays home with the kids and does all the housework. But is that actually how things have always been? Spoiler alert: Not really! Proverbs 31 shows that economic contribution has always been a part of a wife’s role—she wasn’t just sweeping the floor and baking bread.

Fast forward to today, and many families can’t survive on just one income. So, what’s a modern mom to do? Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered! I’ll share tips on how moms can be fully present for their kiddos while also contributing financially. Believe it or not, there are careers out there that actually work for moms with toddlers hanging off their legs.

The debate over whether it’s better to work or stay home has never been shaken up quite like this! Join us for a lively, honest discussion.

With President Trump’s latest executive order cracking down on illegal immigration, many Christians are asking: What would Jesus do? Where do we draw the line between compassion and protecting our nation and families?

Today, I sit down with Fr. Ambrose Criste, a Norbertine priest and theologian, to break down the Catholic perspective on this heated issue. We explore the U.S. Bishops’ response, Pope Francis’ stance, and J.D. Vance’s strong critique of the Bishops.

This is a conversation you don’t want to miss—because the answer isn’t as black and white as some would have you believe. Let’s talk about it.

Are we on the brink of a dystopian future? Dr. Aaron Kheriaty—author, bioethicist, and former professor—was fired for refusing the COVID vaccine. Now, he's exposing the dark side of modern science.

In this eye-opening episode of The Lila Rose Show (E192), Dr. Kheriaty pulls back the curtain on the hidden dangers of today's scientific advancements, including the shocking connection between the vaccine and long COVID. He also warns of the disturbing rise of genetic engineering, with scientists creating human embryos with multiple parents and hybrid pig-human life forms. But it doesn’t stop there—Dr. Kheriaty reveals the terrifying push for transhumanism, where humans and technology are merging in ways that could strip away our autonomy. Medical freedom is under attack, and this conversation is more critical than ever. Tune in for a sobering look at the future of science and human dignity.

Today, I’m joined by Alex Jones, Co-Founder and CEO of the Hallow app. Alex shares how his deep desire to encounter Christ in daily prayer—guided by the wisdom of the mystics—led him to create the app, despite skepticism from others. He takes us through the highs and lows of building Hallow, including the secret to raising over $100 million. Alex also shares powerful testimonies, from a grieving mother finding comfort through the app to an addicted mom reuniting with her child and husband. He even dives into the bold decision to use precious Super Bowl airtime to invite people to prayer. Alex’s radical surrender to God’s will and his passion for spreading the Gospel have borne incredible fruit—his story is one we can all be inspired by.
