New footage and reporting about the Minneapolis ICE shooting of Renée Good have complicated the story. Esau, Mike and Taelor Gray revisit the incident one week later and ask how political power shapes the narratives we’re given, and what it means for Christians to tell the truth when the truth is inconvenient. Then, they turn to the surprising posthumous “ordination” of DMX and consider what it reveals about the nature of pastoral ministry, proximity, and presence in an age o

Tensions have flared around the country after the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, and the Department of Homeland Security has rolled out a new slogan as it defends the lethal action: “One of Ours, All of Yours.” Is the Trump administration declaring civil war on Americans? Then, two seventeenth-century philosophers, Hobbes and Locke, help us understand the divide in our politics today, but Kaitlyn explains why Christians should be hesitant to embr

It’s mailbag time! Kaitlyn and Mike field your questions about faith and works, why churches sometimes prioritize nursery duty over community outreach, and how to move beyond the “Bible in a Year” grind. They talk salvation as allegiance, children as the church’s shared responsibility, and creative ways to stay rooted in Scripture without treating it like a daily vitamin. 0:00 - Theme Song 1:25 - Is Salvation a Gift? 6:33 - What Did Paul Mean by “Work Out Your Salvation?” 12:

Who was Jesus referring to when he said, "whatever you did for one of the least of these, you did for me?"

Skye’s here to answer questions—and talk about the Stranger Things finale. Is there a secret episode called “ConformityGate?” Then he talks about the questionable Christian cliches we use around grief and more. Questions:  Why do you tout your public education experience and say that you support public education?  What are your thoughts on participating in interfaith outreach?  When Jesus said to help the poor, did he mean in the local church or in the general? Is there a sec

A woman is dead in Minneapolis after an encounter with ICE.  Esau McCaulley, Justin Giboney, Malcolm Foley, and producer Mike sort through what we know so far, what the law actually says about deadly force and compliance, and how Christians should think about state power and the value of a human life. The conversation wrestles with fear, responsibility, split second decisions, and the narratives forming around the shooting long before the facts are settled.

Wake Up Dead Man! Kaitlyn and Skye talk about this church-centric murder mystery movie in the Knives Out series and how much it reveals about our culture’s increasing yearning for the church to be a faithful witness.

The new year began with a successful U.S. military operation to capture Venezuela’s president. But the mission killed approximately 80 people and is being condemned by some American and international leaders as illegal. Esau McCaulley joins Phil and Skye this week to discuss the fallout from the operation. Was it legal? Was it moral? And what does it reveal about Trump’s vision of America? Kaitlyn talks with author Sara Billups about her new book, “Nervous System,” and how ou

How can we have a personal relationship with God, when we do all the talking? How can Christians talk honestly about heaven and the afterlife without oversimplifying or confusing people? And why does Scripture sometimes show God responding with judgment and other times with surprising mercy? Kaitlyn lets the grown ups have a turn asking their questions, and they don't disappoint! She tackle these questions and explores grief, repentance, mystery, and what it looks like to tru
