What Does the Bible Say About Watching MMA? - What Does the Bible Say About That?

In this follow-up to last week's program about navigating spritual crises of faith, the dads talk about what to do when your child has already abandoned the faith. They discuss how this is one of the most painful trials a Christian can face...what loving the apostate child looks like...and why a father's trust in God may speak louder than anything else.

Will our kids be ready to carry the nation forward? Recorded live with listener questions, this episode digs into calling, gifting, and stewardship as the real measures of political readiness, why "rights" language falls short of biblical authority, and how families and churches, not politicians, are still the real engine of cultural change.

The numbers don't lie: denominations that ordained women first lost their members fastest, with the PC (U.S.A.) on track for a 95% decline by 2050. The SBC and PCA both voted this year to shut down women pastors and deacons — but will it be enough? Kevin is joined by Danny to ask what will actually survive this civilizational unraveling, and what it looks like to raise cornerstone daughters who are ready for it.

Senate nominee James Talarico (a self-proclaimed Christian) is very worried about Americans wanting to return to our Christian foundations. Kevin speaks with Sam Rust to trace where "Christians" like Talarico came from, who manage to turn every issue into one where the anti-Christian position is blessed by God. They discuss nationalism as an ideology…what "Christian Nationalism" really means when you cut through the disagreements…and what really matters for individuals to help restore our Christian foundations.

There's no greater joy to see your kids walking in the truth; no greater sorrow to see them abandon it. Yet 66% of 20 year olds will abandon the churches of their teen years. What contributes to this? What can dads do to prevent it? What are the safety nets we can put in place…how can we cultivate openness in our kids…how can we set boundaries and avoid bad influences…how do we effectively nurture and disciple?

Should we find entertainment in the injury of others? Kevin and Joshua discuss the recent UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House, noting the similarity to gladiatorial games. They ask what our forefathers said about this, and whether there is a connection between gladiators, body-piercing, and even child sacrifice. Then they go to scripture to ask if we must respect the body as part the image of God, and whether we can delight in violence.

Why has fantasy gone from a niche genre to nearly every blockbuster movie in theaters? Is this a coincednece, or an escape ramp from the reality of God, sin, and judgment? Kevin is joined by Danny Craig to trace that escapism straight into the young adult section of the local library. They test Gandalf, Radagast, and Madeleine L'Engle's witches against Scripture's standard for the true source of power, then offer six criteria for choosing books that point kids back to God instead of away from Him.

Homeschooling is often treated as mom's department, but what does God's Word actually say? The dads ask the question: can you give 20 minutes a day to open God's Word with your kids? Will you ask your wife what she actually needs and follow through with it? Education is a massive task; don't leave your wife to do it alone.

A YouTuber with millions of followers aborts his unborn son after a Down syndrome diagnosis and draws 15,000 angry comments for it. Kevin and Danny ask the question...what is the difference between aborting a baby in the first trimester and aborting a baby in the fourth trimester? They discuss the self-worshipping roots of both abortion and pornography...as well as the coming collapse of Social Security.
