Today, we're diving into the theological debate surrounding infant baptism, exploring the perspectives of paedobaptism versus credobaptism. We examine the arguments for infant baptism, practiced by Catholics and some Protestants (such as Presbyterians), and the Catholic belief that it washes away original sin.

We...

We talk about the different phases of a woman's menstrual cycle and why hormonal birth control doesn't actually "regulate the period" despite what doctors may say.

Today, we're taking a break from some of the heavier stuff we've discussed recently and are reacting to some of the recent videos producer Bri has been saving up for such an occasion. Unfortunately, there are still fake babies, this time with Disney adults. And why is there a "trans" flag hanging on El Capitan in Yosemite?! But luckily, there are some happy things, too, like young kids sharing Jesus with Mickey Mouse and commanding...

Today, we’re joined by Jenn Nizza, a former psychic who turned away from the occult and is now sharing the truth of the gospel and the dangers of New Age beliefs.

Today, we're discussing the Trump administration's reversal of a Biden-era policy regarding hospitals being required to perform emergency abortions. We get into the law itself, what changed, and, more importantly, what didn't. Spoiler alert: Hospitals can still perform emergency care for pregnant women — they just can't intentionally kill babies. And to the surprise of nobody with eyes, Olympic gold medalist boxer Imane Khelif was ...

Today, we're discussing the tragic attack in Boulder, Colorado, over the weekend, when a pro-Palestine man allegedly threw Molotov cocktails at elderly Jewish protesters, including a Holocaust survivor. We get into the details of the attack, and while the FBI is calling this a terrorist attack, Boulder police seem to be hesitant to ascribe a motive yet. And why is the media calling the suspect, an Egyptian national who is here ille...

Happy Noahic Covenant Month! Despite what the world says the rainbow represents, we know that it's a sign of God's promise never to flood the earth again, and for that, we're grateful. But wait, why do some conservative voices appear to be defending journalist Glenn Greenwald's degenerate sexual behavior in a recent leaked video? We go over the scandal and offer a more grounded, biblical response to the situation. And there is stil...

In today's episode, we sit down with Clare Morell, author and fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, to discuss the overwhelming negative effects that screens are having on our children. Clare explains the difference between passive and active screens and how while one is worse than the other, neither can really be called "good" for children. She even goes so far as to argue that the proper amount of screen time for childre...

Today, we're going over the recent "Jubilee" debate between Jordan Peterson and 20 atheists. We go over Peterson's arguments and offer some biblical answers to the atheists' arguments. We go over some of Peterson's great answers and give a grounded, Christian response to his not-so-great responses. But why would "Jubilee" initially title the video "1 Christian vs 20 Atheists," only to change it to "Jordan Peterson vs 20 Atheists" l...
