Happy New Year from all of us at Washington Watch! As we begin a new year, we want to put the first thing first -- that is, God's Word. Harold Harper, FRC's Senior Vice President, joins Tony for a conversation about how daily Bible reading transforms our lives, shapes our worldview, and gives us the confidence to share the hope of Christ with others. They discuss practical ways to build strong families through discipleship and modeling a love for God's Word.

On this edition of Washington Watch, Dr. Owen Strachan, Associate Professor and Director of the Center for Public Theology at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and Dr. Dave Brat, Dean of the School of Business at Liberty University and former Congressman, explain how critical race theory is incompatible with a biblical worldview and share how Christians should be prepared to address it when it emerges in the church and education.

Today we feature a conversation with Phil Hotsenpiller, Senior Pastor of Influence Church and author of One Nation Without Law, about keeping a spiritual perspective as we witness the rise of lawlessness in America and around the world.
