The Mamapologist

Is socialism compatible with Christianity? In this episode of The Mamapologist, we explore what the Bible really says about property, work, generosity, and stewardship. From God’s design for economic life in ancient Israel to the early church in Acts, we’ll unpack why Scripture affirms personal responsibility, voluntary charity, and faithful stewardship — not forced equality. Join me as we think biblically about wealth, justice, and what it really means to love our neighbor in a world pushing socialism as the moral ideal.

What if prayer isn’t about getting what we want, but becoming who God wants us to be? In this episode of The Mamapologist, we explore the power, purpose, and peace found in real, everyday prayer — and how to keep talking to God when life gets loud. Because prayer isn’t a formula… it’s a relationship.

Join me today to discuss what grief has taught me and how to support your friends and family better in times of loss.

How can we learn how to have conversations that matter with the people who matter to us? We don't have to have all the answers to be able to start the conversations and share the gospel. But we do have to be ready!

Our country has reached a point where evil seems to have become the norm. How did we get to this heartbreaking place? Is there anything we can do? Will this be a turning point for our nation or the tipping point of no return?
