July 11, 2022 S9 Ep989: Rethinking Orphanages: Brandon Stiver
Are orphanages helping orphans? Most Christians would say: obviously yes. But Brandon, who’s been working in orphan care for over a decade, says that they are actually perpetuating a system of care that is ultimately not helpful for orphans. Kids belong in families, and there are many other more healthy ways to help kids be raised in a family.
Brandon is the senior director of global programs and partnerships for 1MILLIONHOME–an organization aimed at revolutionizing orphan care through broadly shifting mindsets and scaling up proven community-based models that reunite children with families and eradicate practices that lead to family separation. Brandon has worked in the child welfare and nonprofit sectors for over twelve years. Before joining 1MILLIONHOME, he led a family based care and advocacy program in Tanzania for several years. Brandon has also worked at a Tanzanian orphanage, in the Californian foster care system, at various churches and teaches on issues facing at risk children at the university level. He has his Master’s Degree in Global Development and Justice and is passionate about indigenous leadership, community mobilization and seeing global entities come together to deliver the best care for at risk children.

July 04, 2022 S9 Ep987: Christian Reflections on the 4th of July: Justin Giboney
Justin joins me on this 4th of July to talk about how Christians should think about the holiday. In particular, how should Christians, whose allegiance should be unwavering toward “no king but Jesus,” celebrate the 4th? Or–should we celebrate? What do we do with the dark history that is part of the American story? What about all the good that America has done? What is that good? How do African Americans think through the 4th? Justin and I kick it around in this episode. Justin Giboney is an attorney and political strategist in Atlanta, Georgia. He is also the co-founder and president of the AND Campaign.

July 01, 2022 S9 Ep986: #986 - Responding to the Roe V. Wade Reversal with Dr. Scott Rae
Dr. Scott Rae (Ph.D. USC) is Dean of the Faculty and Professor of Philosophy and Christian Ethics at Talbot School of Theology. He’s also a consultant for ethics for four Southern California hospitals and is a fellow of the Center for Bioethics and Human Dignity and a fellow of the Wilberforce Forum. Scott has authored 10 books in ethics including The Ethics of Commercial Surrogate Motherhood; Moral Choices: An Introduction to Ethics; Brave New Families: Biblical Ethics and Reproductive Technologies; Beyond Integrity: A Judeo-Christian Approach to Business Ethics; and Body and Soul: Human Nature and the Crisis in Ethics. Scott also co-hosts an engaging podcast with Sean McDowell called “Think Biblically,” which tackles many hot topics including abortion.
In this conversation, Scott and I talk about Christians should respond to the reversal of Roe V. Wade, how we should think through abortion as a whole, what are the best pro-choice arguments, when does life begin, when does personhood begin, how to respond to some of the environemtal factors that actually contribute to high abortion rates, and whether the recent ruling will actually lead to fewere abortions.

June 30, 2022 S9 Ep985: A Review of Matt Walsh’s “What Is a Woman?”
Matt Walsh from The Daily Wire released a provocative new documentary called “What Is a Woman?” In it, he interviews several scholars, medical professionals, and common people to hear their answer to the question. It’s created quite a buzz, so I watched it twice and took lots of notes. In this podcast, I talk about my pros and cons of the documentary.
Watch the documentary HERE. (It’s behind a paywall.)

A graduate of Wheaton College, Azusa Pacific University, & Luther Seminary, Christian is a Licensed Associate Marriage & Family Therapist in Arizona committed to the upbuilding of the Church as a family that facilitates the formation of youth & young adults into the image of Chris.
