#266 NAR and Progressive Christianity: Two Sides of the Same Coin?, with Paul Copan
Dr. Paul Copan joins the podcast to use his expertise to help me analyze some theological overlap I see between the movement of progressive Christianity and the New Apostolic Reformation. Progressive Christianity seeks to reframe Christianity by de-emphasizing personal salvation, biblical authority/innerancy, and by attempting to harmonize it with cultural sexual ethics. In the other hand, NAR emphasizes the miraculous and leans toward a prosperity gospel. How are both movements getting to their conclusions? Are they interpreting the Bible through the same erroneous lens? Join Alisa and Dr. Copan as they tackle this fascinating question. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:FOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to thinkBiblically in a deceptive world.

#263 Is Necromancy Creeping into The Church? An Ex-New Ager Weighs in, with Doreen Virtue
As a popular New Age teacher, Doreen Virtue became the top-selling New Age author at the top New Age Publishing company. She practiced Tarot cards and necromancy, even offering free readings to parents who had recently lost their children. She believed she was doing God’s work until God saved her and she trusted in Christ. In 2017, she renounced her former New Age works, and now helps Christians spot New Age teachings that are coming into the church. She joins the podcast today to share concerns she has about necromancy (communicating with the dead) being practiced by Evangelical Christians and leaders.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:ONLINE CHRISTIAN COURSESwww.onlinechristiancourses.comTrain Your Brain: An Introduction to LogicGet 10% off using my code: ALISA10SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off, plus Subscribe and save and extra 15% off for a total of 25% off!

#262 Leaving Bethel: Christian Couple Shares Their Deconstruction/Reconstruction Story
Today's show features Jesse and Kali Westwood as they share their powerful story of leaving the culture of Bethel church and the affiliated organizations. Jesse graduated from Bethel Supernatural School of Ministry and went on to lead worship with former Bethel Worship artist Sean Feucht. The Westowood's share their personal stories of deconstructing out of that culture and belief system, and then ultimately coming back to the historic Christian gospel. Kali shares the deeply personal and gut-wrenching story of her brother dying suddenly in an accident, and a "Dead-Raising Team" being called to bring him back to life in the hospital. Reflecting on their failure to raise her brother, she explores the emotional fallout from the teaching of Bethel alum Tyler Johnson, and his book, "How to Raise the Dead." ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:FOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to thinkBiblically in a deceptive world.

#261 Book Claims to Teach Christians to Raise the Dead: A Review
Several years ago, Andrew and Kalley Heiligenthal asked the members of their church, Bethel in Redding, California, to pray for resurrection after their two-year old daughter Olive died suddenly. The hashtag #wakeupolive was shared thousands of times on social media. After the unsuccessful attempt to raise Olive from the dead, many Christians began wondering what type of theology was really being taught at Bethel. “How to Raise the Dead” is a book by Bethel alum Tyler Johnson. The book claims that every Christian should be performing miracles, raising the dead, and achieving immortality. The book has been sold in the Bethel book store, and lays a theological framework in which the author claims every Christian can harness resurrection power. Alisa read the book and offers her analysis and review on today’s episode.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSSubscribe to any Good Ranchers box and you can choose a free add-on for the next year!Free in every box for 1 year: Boneless Chicken Breasts or Angus Ground Beef or Applewood Smoked Bacon Or Wild-Caught SalmonPlus, with my special code, ALISA, you’ll get an additional $25 off your first box and free express shipping.Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa for more information.SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off, plus Subscribe and save and extra 15% and get a free “Drink Coffee, Save Lives” tote on your order.Will you join us by drinking more coffee so we can save more lives?

#255 Exposing Corruption in the Evangelical Church: The infiltration of a Leftist agenda, with Megan Basham
Megan Basham joins the podcast to talk about her bombshell book, Shepherds for Sale: How Evangelical Leaders Traded Truth for a Leftist Agenda. Basham documents how progressive powerbrokers —from George Soros, to the founder of eBay, to former members of the Obama administration— set out to change the American church. Secular foundations and think tanks have deliberately targeted Christian media, universities, megachurches, nonprofits, and even entire denominations, not to mention many high-profile pastors and influencers, with infiltration and astroturf campaigns. Their goal: to co-opt the church for political purposes. In exchange for toeing a left-wing line, many of those church leaders and institutions have received cash, career jumps, prestige, and praise. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Subscribe to any Good Ranchers box and you can choose a free gold medal add-on for the next four years (or until the next summer games)!- Free in every box for 4 years:- Boneless Chicken Breasts- Angus Ground Beef- Applewood Smoked Bacon- Wild-Caught Sockeye or King SalmonPlus, with my special code, you’ll get an additional $25 off your first box and free express shipping.Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa for more information.SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 15% off any order with a subscription.www.sevenweekscoffee.comFOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to thinkBiblically in a deceptive world.

#249 Can We Trust the Gospels? With Dr. Peter Williams
Dr. Peter Williams joins the podcast to talk about the Gospels―Matthew, Mark, Luke, John. These are four accounts of Jesus’s life and teachings while on earth. But should we accept them as historically accurate? What evidence is there that the recorded events actually happened? Dr. Williams presents evidence from non-Christian sources, assesses how accurately the four biblical accounts reflect the cultural context of their day, compares different accounts of the same events, and looks at how these texts were handed down throughout the centuries. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 15% off any order with a subscription.www.sevenweekscoffee.comGOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Use the code, ALISA to Free Bacon For LIFE!Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa for more information.--------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/musicThere you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/To order “Live Your Truth": www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/To order “The Deconstruction of Christianity”: https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#248 How Sexual Activists Hijacked the Civil Rights Movement, with Voddie Baucham
Dr. Voddie Baucham joins the podcast to talk about how gay-rights advocates first co-opted the civil rights movement to promote same-sex “marriage.” Now, with the nearly complete acceptance of Critical Social Justice, intersectionality, and myriad other streams of postmodern, neo-Marxist ideology, the transgender movement has taken the LGBTQIA+ agenda to new heights and threatens not only the family, but the church and the state as well. Voddie also discusses how many Evangelical leaders, eager to appease the culture, have gone along with this strategy.

#245 What Solving True Crime Cases Taught Detective J. Warner Wallace About Life
"Every murder investigation teaches two lessons: a death lesson and a life lesson.” For decades, cold-case homicide detective J. Warner Wallace investigated the causes behind deaths and murders, chasing one lead after another as he attempted to solve the case. Several of these cases remain open, unsolved mysteries. But even those that haven't yet revealed the identity of the killer do expose the truths of human nature: what's important to us, what threatens our well-being, and what causes us to flourish. Jim joins the podcast to talk about the lessons he learned about the meaning of life after spending decades solving cold case homicides. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:IMPACT 360Impact 360 prepares the next generation of leaders who follow Jesus through residential, community-centered experiences for 15 to 25-year-olds.

#243 The Risk of Relativism: How Denying Truth will Leave you Ruled by Brute Force, with Greg Koukl
In his book, Street Smarts: Using Questions to Answer Christianity’s Toughest Challenges, Greg Koukl writes, "History is testimony to a basic fact. Human lives will be ruled by one of two fundamental forces: either truth or power. Humanity will be governed either by the physical facts of God’s world and the moral facts of his character, or by the forces that oppose those moral and physical facts.” In today’s episode, Greg discusses the chaos we see in our culture that is a direct result of a denial of absolute truth. He also shares some “Street Smart” tactics Christians can use to challenge the assumptions of other worldviews while keeping our conversations friendly and helpful. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off any product.www.sevenweekscoffee.comFOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to think biblically in a deceptive world.

#239 Is Same-Sex Attraction a Sin? The dangers of Side B Theology with Christopher Yuan
Dr. Christopher Yuan joins the podcast to discuss whether or not same-sex attraction is a sinless temptation or a sinful desire. This is the heart of conversations surrounding Side B theology, which teaches that same-sex sin is wrong, but the identity of “gay” is not. Christopher and Alisa also share some concerns surrounding the upcoming Exiles in Babylon Conference, which claims to equip Christians from a biblical perspective, yet features many speakers who promote Side B theology.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:SUMMIT MINISTRIESGive your teens an unshakeable faith that will last a lifetime.Use the code, ALISA24 for a 200.00 discount.www.summit.org/alisaFOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to think biblically in a deceptive world.

#232 Rosaria Butterfield Sounds the Alarm on the Threat of Side B "Gay Christianity”
Rosaria Butterfield joins the podcast to talk about some insidious lies the church is buying into. One of these lies is the idea that Christians can identify themselves as LGBTQ, even if they don’t engage in sinful behavior. This “side B Christianity” is sweeping through our churches, many of which are unaware of the heretical teachings that undergird this movement that markets itself as being biblically faithful. We also discuss the potential influence of side B thinking in the recent conversations surrounding Alistair Begg’s comments about Christians attending same-sex weddings. Finally, we talk about the transgender movement and how it relates with the sin of envy. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off any product.www.sevenweekscoffee.comGOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Use the code, ALISA, to get the current discount and FREE CHICKEN FOR 1 YEAR!!Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa for more information.CARLY JEAN LOS ANGELESCarly Jean Los Angeles is a capsule clothing and lifestyle brand that exists to help women simplify their closets and feel beautiful in every season of life.Use the code, ALISA, and get 20% off your first order!www.carlyjeanlosangeles.com--------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/musicThere you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order “Live Your Truth": www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#230 How to Stand For Life In a Culture of Death, with Scott Klusendorf
In light of the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, too many Christians do not understand the essential truths of the pro-life position, making it difficult for them to articulate a biblical worldview on issues like abortion, cloning, and embryo research. On today’s podcast, Scott Klusendorf helps us understand the intellectual grounding for the pro-life convictions that most evangelicals hold. The debate turns on one key question: What is the unborn? Scott articulates what the role of the pro-life Christian should be and how to lovingly and winsomely engage in questions and objections.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:CARLY JEAN LOS ANGELESCarly Jean Los Angeles is a capsule clothing and lifestyle brand that exists to help women simplify their closets and feel beautiful in every season of life.Use the code, ALISA, and get 20% off your first order!www.carlyjeanlosangeles.comSEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off any product.www.sevenweekscoffee.comGOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Use the code, ALISA, and $20.00 off your first order and 1 YEAR of FREE CHICKEN.Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa for more information.--------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/musicThere you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order “Live Your Truth": www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#229 Don’t be Wimpy, Weak, and Woke, with John Cooper
John Cooper joins the podcast to talk about his new book, Wimpy, Weak, and Woke: How Truth Can Save America From Utopian Destruction. We specifically discuss the influence of the philosophy of Hegel on the woeness we see in our culture. The increasing conflicts in America today are often referred to as “culture war.” But what is truly happening is a war between gods – the living God and the god of Man. Wimpy, Weak, and Woke uncovers the philosophies behind utopian dreams that become dystopian nightmares, and presents a positive vision for how we can thrive and flourish. The false promises of Man lead to destruction; God’s ways lead to life.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off any product.www.sevenweekscoffee.comGOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Use the code, ALISA, and $20.00 off your first order and 1 YEAR of FREE CHICKEN.Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa for more information.CARLY JEAN LOS ANGELESCarly Jean Los Angeles is a capsule clothing and lifestyle brand that exists to help women simplify their closets and feel beautiful in every season of life.Use the code, ALISA, and get 20% off your first order!www.carlyjeanlosangeles.com--------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/musicThere you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order “Live Your Truth": www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#226 End of Season Livestream + Q&A
Join us LIVE for the last episode of The Alisa Childers Podcast of the year! In this episode, Alisa will answer a claim made by progressive author Brian McLaren in his book, A New Kind of Christianity. McLaren argues that the doctrines of Original Sin, the final judgment of heaven and hell, and what he calls the “biblical story line,” are all products of the Greek and Roman influence on the early Christian culture. He writes, “What we call the biblical story line isn’t the shape of the story of Adam, Abraham, and their Jewish descendants. It’s the shape of the Greek philosophical narrative that Plato taught! That’s the descent into Plato’s cave of illusion and the ascent into philosophical enlightenment.” Alisa will offer some thoughts regarding this question then take your questions live!

#223 The Imperfect Life of Elisabeth Elliot. What Christians Can Learn, with Ellen Vaughn
Elisabeth Elliot was a young missionary in Ecuador when members of a remote Amazonian indigenous people group killed her husband Jim and his four colleagues. And yet, she stayed in the jungle with her young daughter to minister to the very people who had thrown the spears, demonstrating the power of Christ’s forgiveness.This courageous, no-nonsense Christian went on to write dozens of books, host a long-running radio show, and speak at conferences all over the world. She was a pillar of coherent, committed faith—a beloved and sometimes controversial icon. Author and Elisabeth Elliot biographer Ellen Vaughn joins the podcast to talk about researching Elisabeth’s life and being given access to her personal private journals. Turns out, that while things in the limelight might have looked golden, Elisabeth’s suffering continued refining her in many different and unexpected ways.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:CARLY JEAN LOS ANGELESCarly Jean Los Angeles is a capsule clothing and lifestyle brand that exists to help women simplify their closets and feel beautiful in every season of life.Use the code, ALISA, and get 30% off your first order during November 2023!www.carlyjeanlosangeles.comSEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Use the code, ALISA, to get 10% off any product.www.sevenweekscoffee.comGOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Use the code, ALISA, and get $15.00 off your first box!Also Get FREE PROTEIN FOR 1 YEAR!Go to www.goodranchers.com/alisa for more information.SOUTHERN EVANGELICAL SEMINARYSteadfast in the TruthGo to www.ses.edu/alisa for more information about Southern Evangelical Seminary and to download your free eBook. --------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/musicThere you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order “Live Your Truth": www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

Shepardson about their new book which spells it all out in simple terms.

#218 The Enneagram: Harmless Personality Test or New Age Tool? With Alexa Cramer
Today’s episode deals with all things Enneagram. The Enneagram is viewed by many Christians to be a harmless personality test that can help us with our relationships with God and others. But is there more to it? In today’s episode, Alexa Cramer joins the podcast to discuss the origins of the Enneagram, it’s influence in the church, and it’s subtle promotion of the false self/true self identity categories that Enneagram coaches (even the Christian ones) promote. Some Christian coaches try and harmonize the Enneagram with the gospel, but Alexa demonstrates how they are often influenced by the heretical teachings of Richard Rohr. Even if you have already rejected the Enneagram, this episode is jam packed with important info you don’t want to miss!------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Act Now and get 2 Years Free Ground Beef and 2 years Price Lock-in!Use the code, ALISA, and get $25.00 off your first box!Go to goodranchers.com/alisa for more informationCARLY JEAN LOS ANGELEScarlyjeanlosangeles.comCarly Jean Los Angeles is a capsule clothing and lifestyle brand that exists to help women simplify their closets and feel beautiful in every season of life.Use the code, ALISA, and get 20% off your order!SOUTHERN EVANGELICAL SEMINARYSteadfast in the TruthGo to ses.edu/alisa for more information about Southern Evangelical Seminary and to download your free ebook. --------------------------------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

Progressive teachers and churches now offer a version of Jesus that emphasizes friendliness, acceptance, and tolerance—a version that many Christians are falling for. They don’t realize that they’ve been sold a fairy tale that is historically and biblically indefensible. Jason Jimenez joins the podcast today to talk about how progressive teachers are Hijacking Jesus and denying core historic truths about who he is. In this episode, we talk through the progressive teachings of Jesus’ deity and humanity, his virgin birth, his miracles, his atoning sacrifice, his resurrection, and his second coming. Then we compare those teachings to historic doctrines of the Christian faith to equip you to understand and answer the progressive vision of Jesus.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Act Now and get 2 Years Free Ground Beef!

#214 Beware of Christ-less Conservatism, with Jon Root
For the past several years, Christians have been confronted with the chaos coming from the progressive left. We’ve seen words become redefined, biblical gender and sexuality become confused, and the push for abortion rights become stronger. It can be tempting to push back by swinging from one extreme to the other. It’s important to remember what unites us in the first place. My friend Jon Root joins the podcast today to share an urgent warning with the church about what he calls “Christ-less conservatism,” and how Christians can stand for conservative values in a hostile culture without compromising biblical faith.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat DeliveredAct Now and get 2 Years Free Ground Beef!Use the code, ALISA, and get $25.00 off your first box!Go to goodranchers.com/alisa for more informationSOUTHERN EVANGELICAL SEMINARYSteadfast in the TruthGo to ses.edu/alisa for more information about Southern Evangelical Seminary and to download your free ebook.--------------------------------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon:www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.Support us on Patreon:www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

John Cooper joins me for another “mashup” episode going out to both our platforms this week! In this episode, we talk about the state of Contemporary Christian music, and how we got to a place in history in which industry insiders are promoting and defending anti-Christian values among their artists. We cover everything from recent events such as a drag queen topping the iTunes Christian charts to recent deconstruction stories to who owns the Christian record labels. We end with some encouragement and a hopeful call to the church to return to the fear of God and holiness. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Act Now and get 2 Years Free Ground Beef!

#206 Have You Been Misled to Believe a Lie That Distorts the Gospel? With Allen Parr
The gospel is under attack today--not only from outside cultural forces but also from within the church. In today’s episode, popular YouTuber and Bible teacher Allen Parr helps us to identify and withstand seven of the most common false teachings that undermine the gospel and lead many well-meaning Christians astray. For an anxious and weary world, the gospel of Jesus Christ is the one true source of deep peace and lasting joy. But today, many supposedly Christian teachers are spreading ideas that amount to what Paul called "another gospel." The result? A generation of believers confused about what God really says, what he offers, and what he wants for his children. From the heavy burden of legalism to an overemphasis on prosperity or spiritual gifts to warped understandings of grace, every false teaching has two things in common: they all use half-truths that look and sound biblical (making them very difficult to identify) and they all harm and discourage those who are trying to follow the way of Jesus.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Use the code, ALISA, and get $30.00 off your first box!Go to goodranchers.com/alisa for more informationSOUTHERN EVANGELICAL SEMINARYSteadfast in the TruthGo to ses.edu/alisa for more information about Southern Evangelical Seminary and to download your free ebook. --------------------------------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#203 How to Protect Children and Teens from Transgender Activism, with Dr. Jeff Myers
Dr. Jeff Myers of Summit Ministries joins the podcast to talk about how Christian parents can protect their kids from the false ideologies regarding gender. The debate over gender ideology has revealed a raging fury against the idea that human beings bear the image of God. Nowhere is this indignation more clearly seen than in the deconstruction of the very definition of male and female. Sincere and faithful Christians cannot remain on the sidelines. We must speak with biblically informed, compassionate wisdom. The philosophical and moral questions are complex. But what is at stake is whether we, as a human society, will be able to recognize truth, discern reality, and prepare the rising generation to live confidently as image-bearers of God.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat DeliveredLooking for a GREAT Fathers Day Gift?Subscribe and lock in your price for 2 full years!.Also use the code, ALISA, and get $30.00 off your first box!Go to goodranchers.com/alisa for more informationSOUTHERN EVANGELICAL SEMINARYSteadfast in the TruthGo to ses.edu/alisa for more information about Southern Evangelical Seminary and to download your free ebook.--------------------------------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon:www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#202 The Toxic War on Masculinity, with Nancy Pearcey
How did an ideology arise that condemns masculinity as dangerous and destructive? For example, a headline in the Washington Post reads: ”Why Can't We Hate Men?" A trendy hashtag is #KillAllMen. Books are sold titled I Hate Men, No Good Men, and Are Men Necessary? Nancy Pearcey joins the podcast to discuss her upcoming book which takes readers through American History to discover how the secular script for masculinity turned toxic--and what action we can take to fix it.We often hear that Exhibit A of toxic behavior is evangelical Christian men. But the social sciences tell a very different story. Studies find that family men who attend church regularly test out as the most loving husbands and the most engaged fathers. They have the lowest rate of divorce and--here's the real stunner--the lowest rate of domestic violence of any group in America.The sociological facts explode anti-male stereotypes and show that classic Christianity has the power to overcome toxic behavior and reconcile the sexes.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Looking for a GREAT Fathers Day Gift?Subscribe and lock in your price for 2 full years!.Also use the code, ALISA, and get $30.00 off your first box!Go to goodranchers.com/alisa for more informationSOUTHERN EVANGELICAL SEMINARYSteadfast in the TruthGo to ses.edu/alisa for more information about Southern Evangelical Seminary and to download your free ebook. --------------------------------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#200 When a Best-Selling Book Makes You a Slave to Your Passions, with Melissa Dougherty
Untamed is a very popular (and trendy) book written by Glennon Doyle that has enchanted millions of people. Published in 2020, it's a memoir of Glennon Doyle. One reviewer describes the book in this way: "This testament to female empowerment and self-love, with an endearing coming-out story at the center, will delight readers." The scary patriarchy. Radical feminism. White supremacy. Oppressed by religion. Not to mention the Progressive/New Age spirituality scattered throughout the book. With a book so relevant and popular, not just culturally but spiritually, I had to invite my friend Melissa Dougherty to chime in with her thoughts as we discuss this influential work. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Subscribe in May 2023 and lock in your price for 2 full years!.Also use the code, ALISA, and get $30.00 off your first box!Go to goodranchers.com/alisa for more informationSOUTHERN EVANGELICAL SEMINARYSteadfast in the TruthGo to ses.edu/alisa for more information about Southern Evangelical Seminary and to download your free ebook. --------------------------------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#199 Safe Spaces and the Coddling of American Students, with Dr. Everett Piper
When any culture starts calling good evil and evil good, Truth is the only rebellion left, says Dr. Everett Piper who served as president of Oklahoma Wesleyan University for 17 years. Dr. Piper joins the podcast to discuss how American colleges have gone from places that teach and challenge students, to facilities that coddle them and leave them fragile and easily offended. He talks about the radical departure from truth our culture has taken, and how Christians can speak up with courage and conviction. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Subscribe in May 2023 and lock in your price for 2 full years!.Also use the code, ALISA, and get $30.00 off your first box!Go to goodranchers.com/alisa for more informationSOUTHERN EVANGELICAL SEMINARYSteadfast in the TruthGo to ses.edu/alisa for more information about Southern Evangelical Seminary and to download your free ebook. --------------------------------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.

#198 12 Points that Demonstrate Christianity is True, with David Geisler
David Geisler joins the podcast to help equip us to make the 12 point case for Christianity. We also discuss the difference between faith and reason, and how they interact. Can you demonstrate the truth of these 12 points? 1. Truth about reality is knowable. 2. Opposites cannot both be true. 3. It is true that a theistic God exists. 4. Since God exists, miracles are possible. 5. Miracles can be used to confirm a message from God. 6. The New Testament is historically reliable. 7. In the New Testament Jesus claimed to be God. 8. Jesus proved to be God. 9. Therefore Jesus is God. 10. Since Jesus is God, whatever He teaches is true. 11. Jesus taught that the Bible is the Word of God. 12. Therefore, the Bible is the Word of God and anything opposed it is false.

Faith is one of the most misunderstood concepts in Christianity. Some think it's a blind leap in the dark with no evidence to back it up.

Many of you have asked my opinion about the popular movie, Jesus Revolution. In today’s episode, I will broadcast live with my honest review. I’ll share some things I loved, some things I wished would have been different, and one thing I hated about the film. I will also play a conversation I recorded with my Dad earlier this week where I ask him what he thought. Since the film is about the time and place in which he got saved, and an actor even plays him in the movie, I thought it would be fun to ask him what he thought they got right, and what was added for artistic license. Then I’ll come back live to take any questions you might have!

On Feb. 8th, 2023, students of Asbury University in Kentucky gathered for their Wednesday chapel service. At the end of the service, the altar was flooded with over 100 students and the service has continued without concluding for days. Since Wednesday, people have come from all over the country to observe and even participate in what is gong on at Asbury. This has gone viral on social media with many people affirming that it’s a revival, testifying from personal experience that it’s genuine, legitimate, and from God. Others are skeptical saying that it’s experience-driven emotionalism. I was able to attend the service around 8am on Sunday morning, and I went away with some positive takeaways but also some serious concerns.

#178 Responding to woke culture: Is critical race theory a real threat? with Dr. Doug Groothuis
A dangerous and revolutionary philosophy is responsible for the street fires in America. It fuels the actions of Black Lives Matter and Antifa, and invades curricula in public schools and in our military. It is in our churches. You have heard the phrase “white privilege,” the need for “safe spaces” on campuses, and perhaps the tongue-twister “intersectionality.” Behind all of these is an ideology called critical theory, which is a form of cultural Marxism that divides society into the oppressed and the oppressors. It claims that America is “systemically racist” and founded on slavery. It believes that the voices of the minorities should trump the perspective of the dominant (and oppressing) culture. Dr. Doug Groothuis joins me to discuss this topic on today's podcast.

If Jesus is God, why does the Bible say he didn’t know the date of his return?

#166 Do we Have Actual Evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus? With Gary Habermas
Christianity stands or falls based on the resurrection of Jesus being a real event in history. The Apostle Paul said that if Christ has not been raised, our faith is in vain.

Historian and New Testament scholar Dr. Gary Habermas is considered one of the foremost scholars on the resurrection of Jesus and he joins me to talk about the facts surrounding the resurrection that virtually all scholars, from the most liberal to the most conservative, agree on. He shares his “minimal facts” approach, and gives every Christian practical ways to share this evidence with their friends.

Norm Geisler is one of the most prolific and influential scholars and apologists of our time.

#163 Is it Too Late to Give my Kids a Biblical Worldview? With Brett & Erin Kunkle
Many Christian parents feel overwhelmed by the constant messages of our culture which are telling our kids to follow their hearts, live their truth, and redefine sexuality and gender. In this episode, I’m joined by Brett and Erin Kunkle of Maven Ministries to help equip parents to train up their kids with a Christian worldview. They give practical tips on what to do if you feel like you’ve already blown it and it’s too late to start passing on the faith to your children. They also answer a question from a mom who brought her kids up in progressive Christianity but has now repented and trusted in Jesus as her Savior. How can she begin to undo the false ideas she taught her kids now that they are teenagers? Brett and Erin’s answer is so encouraging and will be such a blessing to every Christian parent who feels like they’ve it might be too late to begin laying a foundation of truth in their homes.

Greg Stier was raised in a family of bodybuilding, tobacco-chewing, fist-fighting thugs.

#125 Biblical Sexuality, CCM Artists, and Our Public Witness, with Becket Cook
Contemporary Christian Music has grown into a multi-million dollar industry in which the waters have become murky on what individual CCM artists believe. Public stories of deconstruction, and several CCM artists speaking out in favor of redefining the historic Christian ethic on sexuality and gender have left many CCM fans confused. In this livestream, Becket Cook will join me to share his story of being a gay man with a successful career as a set designer in Hollywood. By all appearances, he was living the dream. He was designing photo shoots for supermodels and hanging out with celebrities. But after experiencing the emptiness of that life, he surrendered to Jesus and trusted him for salvation. He will share what it has been like to trade that old life for a new life in Christ. Together, we will speak to issues surrounding biblical sexuality, and comment on the confusion we are seeing in the CCM industry. We will also take your questions live!

From the Gungors to Joshua Harris to the most recent, and possibly most impactful deconversion stories, Rhett and Link of the Good Mythical Morning Podcast—these stories continue to impact Christianity, shaking the faith of many. Today, I talk with Travis Lowe, a pastor from Florida who went through the long and painful process of deconstruction. However, his story has ended a bit differently from ones we often hear. Listen to Travis' journey of hope as we walk with him from childhood through deconstruction, and into the reconstruction of a vibrant faith.Links:Travis' podcast: The Stone Table Podcast: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-…le/id1478795937Books that helped Travis' reconstruction:The Resurrection of the Son of God, by N.T.

#62 Should Christians Call God a She? With Clark Bates
Lately I've noticed a trend of Christians referring to God as a "she," or with female pronouns. Is this a biblical way to think about God? What about feminine metaphors for God in Scripture? Is there a tradition in church history we can trace this to? What about the personification of wisdom (Sophia) in the Bible and non-canonical literature? On today's podcast, Clark Bates and I discuss these questions and more, ultimately asking, should Christians call God a she?

#12 What is Molinism? WIth Tim Stratton (Part 1)
The Bible seems to indicate that God is all-powerful, all-knowing, and completely sovereign—and that he predestines all things, including the fate of each individual soul. The Bible also seems to indicate that humans have free-will to accept or reject God's gift of grace. What do we make of this apparent contradiction? Tim Stratton believes he has found a solution in a view called "Molinism," which is based on the work of a 16th century theologian named Luis De Molina. In the first episode of a two-part series, Tim shares his story and helps us understand this view.
