Cooper Stuff Podcast
Cooper Stuff Podcast is an in depth look at what drives John Cooper (lead singer of Skillet); a commentary on culture from a traditional Biblical paradigm: Has modern culture stolen your world view? With all the screaming voices, who do you trust? How much have you been subversively influenced? Cooper Stuff aims to point out subtle and not so subtle influences on culture with a traditional, Biblical world view/emphasis... while boiling complex issues down to simple language.

Allegations have come against Michael Tait, former singer of dc Talk and The Newsboys. Subsequently, Michael Tait released a public confession, admitting to “the substance” of the accusations. This was followed by many more allegations of an extremely serious nature. Today we discuss how to move forward. This is a very weighty moment.

Melissa Dougherty joins the show to speak about her book, “Happy Lies.” It is such a fascinating discussion that we had to make this 2 episodes! If you’ve wondered why the self-love, positivity, and wellness movements sound vaguely Christian, this episode will help explain it. It will also explain the differences between these ideas and Christianity. The most surprising aspect of this is finding out the source of these ideas, which...

A new Barna poll has been released showing that Christianity is in decline in America. However, there have been many other signs that it is increasing. Today we look at the data and discuss what it means to truly be a follower of Jesus.

Today we have Krista Bontrager and Monique Duson from The Center for Biblical Unity join the show to talk about their book, Walking in Unity. Cooper Stuff had the privilege of reading the book and giving it an endorsement last year. The topic of race has become such a flashpoint over the last handful of years, and there is still much to talk about and much to learn. How do we walk in unity?

On the week of Easter, Christianity Today published an article titled, “Was Jesus Crucified with Nails?” The article implicitly calls into question the inerrancy of Scripture, which Cooper Stuff considers unacceptable. Today we cover the story, along with a statement of apology by the author of the article and Christianity Today, but is that enough?

It’s time for a regime change in American evangelicalism—a rise of the normies. Today we look at two responses to the re-election of Donald Trump to illustrate why our current establishment leaders aren’t good “war-time” leaders because they don’t understand what most Christians in this country do: (1) that it is imperative that we stand against the tide of evil in our nation before it’s too late. (2) how we should do that and the ...
Trump wins what can only be called the most remarkable political comeback in our lifetimes and possibly in American history. Cooper Stuff shares why we believe this is a sign of hope, and why we must use this time to stand for truth.

The opening ceremony of the Olympics created massive controversy for multiple reasons. As drag queens paraded around with children present there appeared to be a parody of da Vinci‘s painting of the Lord’s supper. Many, including Cooper Stuff were offended by this and spoke out. Meanwhile, we have unprecedented things happening in the political realm as President Biden drops out of the race and within 48 hours, vice president Kamal...
Today’s episode is a little raw and unfiltered. There was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump this past weekend. In a miraculous turn of events he survived and was shot in the ear. We are in a truly frightening moment in American history. Today we talk about the incredible evil and darkness rising to bring tyranny upon America, and why so many christian leaders don’t understand what’s happening and won't fight for liberty.

Today we’re talking about a fantastic documentary called “The 1916 Project” that tells the story of where and how the abortion industry began. Pro-life activist Seth Gruber joins the show to discuss the film. You may think you already know about Margaret Sanger and the beginning of what became Planned Parenthood, but you may be surprised and even shocked at what you hear on this episode.

The debate heard round the world between Biden and Trump has set off a media firestorm. Suddenly, the mainstream media and most of the pundits on the left are calling for Biden to step down. Certainly this is unprecedented in our lifetimes and there is a lot to unpack. But in the opinion of Cooper Stuff, the main takeaway is the complicity of the corrupt media establishment who has been in on the sham. They do not like us, our reli...
This week on Sword and Shield we discuss Paul’s exhortation not to be deluded by enticing or plausible arguments in Colossians 2:4. This is relevant to our current moment of deconstruction and the need for clear, biblical teaching. Paul wrestled and was “in conflict“ over his concern for people being deceived by lies. We should have the same love and care for others.

The Chief’s kicker, Harrison Butker sparked a major controversy when he gave the commencement speech at Benedictine college, where he promoted traditional family values and a biblical worldview. The meltdown and vitriol towards Butker in the media and from celebrities such as Pearl Jam’s Singer, Eddie Vedder has been frankly surprising. Today we discuss what Butker said; how his detractors have lied about his speech; and finally we...
Today we discuss what “zeal for the lord” means. We read from Psalm 69 and discuss how David can be so confident that he has acted innocently and is being unjustly lied about and hated. This leads to the definition and at times, painful results of having zeal for God.
