When Richard Dawkins, one of the world’s most outspoken atheists, scoffs at the idea of God working through “bronze age, camel herders from the Middle East,” he unintentionally highlights a theme that runs like a thread through Scripture. Brant takes this very skepticism and turns it into a powerful reminder: God’s story is filled with unlikely heroes. From Galilee—an obscure and overlooked corner of the ancient world—to shepherds,...

I just read something that said 50% of children in America will experience their parents' divorce this holiday season.

The holidays are supposed to be filled with joy, but for parents navigating divorce and co-parenting, they can feel complicated and heavy. Many of us know the ache of putting on a brave smile while our kids bounce between households, trying to give them the magic of Christmas or Thanksgiving without letting them see...

We’ve all had those moments when life feels like it’s keeping score—late fees, deadlines, rules that don’t bend. Brant shares a story from Phillip Yancey about being nearly an hour late to return a rental car in Los Angeles, and most of us can already feel the sting of the penalty coming. But instead of a fine, the Hertz desk clerk smiled and explained there was a “grace period.” No charge. No punishment. Just grace.

That simple exc...

What if our deepest longing wasn’t to escape this world—but to live in it with heaven in view?

Brant and Sherri explore the sloth’s dating life, where romance involves sitting in a tree and yelling until someone shows up—no texting, no awkward small talk. Brant suggests this might be more effective than modern dating apps, which require a master’s degree in emoji interpretation. Turns out, nature’s slowest mammal might be onto the fastest way to find love.

In a world that seems addicted to outrage, Brant and Sherri offer a countercultural message rooted in grace. As headlines scream and comment sections boil over, they remind us—through Scripture and honest reflection—that human anger rarely leads to righteousness.

Brant’s book, Unoffendable, challenges the idea that we’re entitled to our fury, and instead points to James’ wisdom: “Human anger does not produce the righteousness that G...

Brant and Sherri have cracked the sports code: it's all just glorified keep-away with better uniforms. Whether it's a ball, puck, or oddly shaped pigskin, the goal is simple—move it somewhere the other team doesn’t want it to go. Congratulations, you now understand every sport ever, and you didn’t even break a sweat.

Brant wrestles with the modern notion that righteous anger is the only fuel for meaningful action, but Paul’s words keep interrupting with a love-heavy playlist. Turns out, love isn’t just a warm fuzzy feeling—real, sacrificial, people-centered love—is the only motivation that truly matters. So if you're clanging your cymbals out of rage, maybe it's time to switch to a more harmonious tune. Love isn’t passive; it’s powerful enough ...

Brant and Sherri dive into the world of media shock tactics, where Brant hopes to be “shockingly interesting” without traumatizing Grandma over breakfast. After all, nothing says “Good morning!” like a smiling television anchor casually announcing the end of civilization.

It’s hard to find the words that truly capture what Sam Kelly means to me. But as she wraps up her time at Praise 106.5 this week, after 12 beautiful years, I want to try.

Brant boldly declares Baby Shark the worst song ever, claiming it was “designed in a lab and then deployed”—possibly as psychological warfare. Sherri defends humanity against Lamb Chops, "The Song That Never Ends", but even she admits it never reached the same level of global, brain-numbing domination.

Brant and Sherri explore Jesus’ promise of a rich and satisfying life from John 10, pointing out that it’s not just a future hope—it’s available right now. No need to earn it or fix yourself first; this life comes with freedom from fear, healing from shame, and real transformation, starting today.

Brant and Sherri dive into a surprising stat: while there are 250 million cars in the U.S., there are a whopping 2 billion parking spaces—eight for every vehicle—yet we still can’t find one when we need it. Click PLAY for a hilarious reminder that having too much of something doesn’t help if it’s all in the wrong place (we’re looking at you, abandoned strip mall parking lots).

When faced with toxic people, it can be tempting to respond with frustration—but what if the path to peace lies in praying for theirs?

In a world where silence too often shields injustice, voices like Rachael Denhollander’s shine as powerful beacons of hope and change.

    Ruthie's Table 4

    For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
