  • From Depressed Teen to Theology Mom: Two Women Who Changed My Life

    From Depressed Teen to Theology Mom: Two Women Who Changed My Life
    Nov 17 2025
    At 15, I was a lonely, fatherless freshman drowning in depression. I had braces, curly hair, and zero friends. But two ordinary Christians noticed me—and my life changed forever. In this emotional episode, I reunite with two old friends and talk about how God used them in my life. Thirty years later, we laugh, cry, and marvel at how God used two regular women to help pull a broken girl out of the pit and into purpose. If you’ve ever wondered if your small act of kindness matters, this one’s for you. You don’t need a platform. You just need to notice the lonely person on the bench. One conversation, one prayer, one nudge from the Holy Spirit can alter someone’s eternity. #ChristianTestimony #TheologyMom #RedemptionStory #HighSchoolFaith

  • Biola’s Gender Policy Overhaul: From Side-B Ambiguity to Biblical Clarity?

    Biola’s Gender Policy Overhaul: From Side-B Ambiguity to Biblical Clarity?
    Nov 10 2025
    In this powerful 2-hour conversation, I talk to Christian counselor, Andrew Rodriguez (@psychobible). We expose the critical gap between doctrine and practice at Christian institutions — using Biola University as a real-world case study. Includes a discussion about Rosemead Psychology’s stance on “conversion therapy.” 🔥 We read Biola’s old vs. new gender & student care policies line-by-line. ⚖️ Compare their public statements of faith with actual campus culture ❌ Unpack the red flags in “The Dwelling” — Biola’s official LGBTQ+/SSA ministry 🗣️ React to clips from a Preston Sprinkle’s chapel talk & Side B framework 🛑 Why “gay Christian,” “sexual orientation,” and “safe space” language undermines transformation Parents, pastors, youth leaders — this is your roadmap for: • Crafting biblically sound policies • Training leaders to respond in the moment when a teen says, “I think I’m gay/trans” • Avoiding the Side B drift that leaves students stuck, not sanctified #BiolaUniversity #ChristianDiscipleship #GenderPolicies #SideB #LGBTQandChurch #BiblicalCounseling #YouthMinistry #ChristianParents #TheologyMatters

  • 5 People Share the Gospel in 5 Minutes or Less (You Can Too)

    5 People Share the Gospel in 5 Minutes or Less (You Can Too)
    Nov 6 2025
    Can you share the gospel clearly in under 5 minutes? You don’t need to be a pastor, theologian, or famous speaker to do it. I'm returning to finish up my 2024 teaching series on evangelism series. In this episode, I share real-life gospel presentations from 5 everyday believers — including a homeschool mom, a pastor, a politician, and more. Watch as they share the good news in 90 seconds to 5 minutes, using simple, memorable methods. Each presentation is practical, repeatable, and designed for real conversations — with waitresses, scientists, strangers, or friends. You’ll also learn: • Why repentance is the missing piece in most gospel talks • How anyone can turn any moment into a Jesus conversation • How to train your kids, church, or small group to share the gospel confidently Inspired by evangelism pioneers like Dr. Hugh Ross, this episode will equip and ignite you to fulfill the Great Commission — starting today. Your next step: Pick one presentation, practice it this week, and watch God open doors.

  • Reacting to "Is Biola Woke?" – 4 Conservative Profs Speak (What They Got Right & Omitted)

    Reacting to "Is Biola Woke?" – 4 Conservative Profs Speak (What They Got Right & Omitted)
    Oct 20 2025
    Four conservative Biola profs (Sean McDowell, Thaddeus Williams, Fred Sanders, Erik Thoennes) respond to the recent "drama" surrounding the questions Alisa Childers, Monique Duson and I have been raising. I appreciate these brothers and want you to hear their responses in their words. I also want you to understand what they DIDN'T say. Bombshells: Sean won't send kids to "center-left" Sociology department; Fred admits left-leaning hires; Thad says Biola "got crazy" 2014-2020 and is now reforming. At the end, I recount my 2021 meeting with top-level administration. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ3rPKlc2Zk #Biola #IsBiolaWoke

  • Bill Maher Speaks Out: The Plight of Nigerian Christians | As Seen on X

    Bill Maher Speaks Out: The Plight of Nigerian Christians | As Seen on X
    Oct 13 2025
    I shine a light on the escalating persecution of Christians in Northern Nigeria, where over 100,000 have been killed and 18,000 churches burned since 2009. I reflect on the lack of mainstream attention to this crisis, highlighted by even atheist commentator Bill Maher addressing the issue. Learn about the challenges faced by Christians living under Sharia law, the role of groups like Boko Haram, and how you can stay informed through resources like Open Doors Ministries.
