You'll find a mixed bag of Jesus, theology, Christian apologetics, and cultural topics from a Christian perspective here. I'm an ex-New Thoughter (with a little Ex New Ager sprinkled in) and a lot of my videos focus on topics related to this as well. My hope is to help Christians thoughtfully know what they believe and why they believe it.

The 10 Most Illogical Arguments in Politics, Culture, and Religion

Sunday, February 8, 2026 • Duration 56:55

In a world where emotion often wins over reason, we want to know how to think well. I invited the smartest person I know when it comes to critical thinking, Kathy Gibbens, to join me on my channel and unpack 10 of the most common logical fallacies influencing everything from faith and relationships to politics.

They Called Him a Fascist. But Do They Even Know What It Means?|With Dr. Bernard Mauser

Sunday, February 8, 2026 • Duration 01:29:09

I don’t think most people have the slightest idea what they mean when they accuse someone of being a fascist. There's only one man I could think of in the midst of all of this who I thought would be able to speak into this with clarity and wisdom. And that is my professor from Southern Evangelical Seminary, Dr. Bernard Mauser. What actually *is* fascism? What are some of the ironies with this accusation? What part does free speech play? There’s so much more to know about this, but I’m hoping this will give a broader perspective on the *real* hate that killed an innocent man, a brother in Christ, and a father. There is so much more to this conversation, but I did my best to give you some good information. Sorry for the choppy intro. I had to collect myself a few times.

Exposing Genuine and Fake Spiritual Encounters with Dr. Chris Berg

Season 4 · Episode 12

Monday, September 9, 2024 • Duration 01:08:26

Some Christians will say that for every counterfeit spiritual experience out there, there's an authentic version of it. This is how some odd and bizarre behaviors are explained to be not only biblical but also a display of spiritual power and favor from God. But what if that's not the case and there is more to this? I asked Dr. Berg, an expert on this topic, to come on my channel and talk about this.

32:23- Myth #3: The Roman Catholic Church gave us the Bible.
45:50- Myth #4: The King James Bible is the Best and Most Accurate Bible.
56:51- Myth #5: The Book of Enoch Belongs in the Bible.

Former MLM Leaders Share Why They Left it All.

Season 3 · Episode 10

Friday, July 5, 2024 • Duration 01:36:45

We're digging deeper into the world of MLMs (Multi-Level Marketing). In this interview, I talk with two former MLM leaders, Kathy and Noble Gibbens, who are absolutely delightful. They were in a well-known MLM for over 20 years and were very successful. So why'd they leave it all?

This is a follow-up to my initial MLM video. With as long as this interview was, there was till a LOT more to cover. Both Kathy and Noble have followed up on more thoughts about their experience in their podcast. You can find the info for that below.

The Controversial World of MLM's... And What Nobody is Talking About.

Season 3 · Episode 9

Saturday, June 1, 2024 • Duration 01:54:58

We're delving into the world of MLMs (Multi-Level Marketing Companies) and exploring their allure and controversy. And let me tell you... MLMs can be one of the strangest and most intriguing phenomena in the business world. I never intended this video to be as long as it did. But the more research I did, the more I decided that I needed to cover. It took me many, many hours and almost 2 months to do this research.

I have yet to see MLMs addressed from a Christian perspective. The *real* fuel for why I did this deep dive has to do with my background in New Thought and what I started noticing hidden within MLMs that needs to be talked about. (And it's not New Age.) I'm calling this the "dirty secret of MLMs."

My goal is to approach this with fairness but also firmness. I think there’s generally a lot of (understandable) anger and bitterness with some of the anti-MLM crowd, and I wanted to approach this from a different angle. I made this video with no resentments but with a genuine interest in the topic, your stories, and a love for people and truth. I actually had a really wholesome experience doing this research.

Unraveling the Connections between Aliens, Demons, and Christianity|With Dr. Brian Huffling

Season 3 · Episode 8

Monday, April 29, 2024 • Duration 34:14

UFOs and aliens can be a fringe topic that many Christians don't know how to navigate. Surprisingly, there are many academics and theologians that have seriously looked into this from a Christian worldview. In this fascinating interview, I talk to Dr. Brian Huffling about this topic and his surprising conclusions.

Suicide Through a Biblical Lens: What You Need to Know|With Jon Noyes

Sunday, January 7, 2024 • Duration 01:01:23

I invited my good friend Jon Noyes on to talk about a tough topic: Suicide. I was stunned to discover how serious this is when I saw a recent statistic showing the growing suicide rates. Why is this happening? How can we biblically look at this? What can be done? There is hope.

Bill Gothard's Surprising Connections to the New Age and Prosperity Teachings.

Season 3 · Episode 5

Wednesday, January 3, 2024 • Duration 42:30

Alisa Childers and I had the honor of interviewing Jinger Duggar Vuolo, author of "Becoming Free Indeed: My Story of Disentangling Faith from Fear." You might remember her from TLC's popular shows, "19 Kids and Counting" and "Counting On." We discuss some of the legalistic teachings of Bill Gothard and how there was an ironic prosperity twist on his Life Principles doctrine. We also ask her about her journey of disentanglement and why deconstruction was not an option for her because of her love for Jesus and truth. She has a humbling and inspiring story.
