Why Christian Nationalism Terrifies the Evangelical Church | Douglas Wilson

In today’s episode, we talk about the uncomfortable question many in the conservative movement are afraid to ask: what happens after Charlie Kirk? Seth sits down with Steve Deace—his brother in Christ and a soon-to-be featured speaker at Life or Death Con—to confront the leadership vacuum facing America’s younger men. Recorded at AmericaFest in Phoenix, Arizona, this episode explores the role older men must play as a rising generation reaches the end of itself after decades of feminism, confusion, and collapse. Seth and Steve unpack why events like AmericaFest are proof that Charlie’s legacy didn’t die—it was transferred—and why the responsibility to carry it forward now falls on men willing to stand up in this civilizational moment.

In today’s episode, Seth tackles the question everyone’s afraid to touch: Christian nationalism. Is the church called to “just preach the gospel,” or does Christ’s lordship extend to culture and politics too? Is Jesus Lord of all—or only inside church walls? Pastor Doug Wilson joins Seth to unpack the theology, history, and controversy surrounding Christian nationalism, what’s really happening in Moscow, Idaho, and whether America was ever meant to be reclaimed as a Christian nation.

In today’s episode, we talk about what happens to young men—and the conservative movement—after Charlie Kirk. From AmericaFest in Phoenix, Seth is joined by Steve Deace to call older men to step up and pass the mantle in a now-or-never moment for America.   Subscribe to Brave Books!

In today’s episode, Seth exposes the dark ideological roots of feminism by tracing its stated goal: the erasure of sexual distinctions and the dismantling of the biological family. Drawing from the writings and beliefs of early feminist thinkers, Seth argues that feminism was never about equality, but about rejecting the Genesis order and ushering in the sexual revolution. He connects this worldview to critical theory and the Frankfurt School’s influence on American institutions, revealing how these ideas reshaped culture, family, and faith. This episode confronts the fruit of feminism—and where it was always meant to lead.   Get Your Gruber Wear! https://gruber-wear.printify.me/ Stand with us at Life or Death Con in Washington D.C. on January 22, 2026 — the frontline of Christian resistance!

In today’s episode, Seth Gruber slows things down for Christmas with a story-time conversation alongside his mentor, Dr. George Grant. Together, they uncover the forgotten Christian history behind beloved Christmas traditions that many Americans—and even Christians—no longer recognize. From the story of Saint Boniface confronting paganism to the true origins of the Christmas tree standing in living rooms today, this episode reclaims Christmas as a holy day rooted in courage, mission, and Christ. Seth invites families to gather, listen, and be encouraged by the sacred history behind a season the modern world has tried to sanitize, commercialize, or forget.     Get Your Gruber Wear! https://gruber-wear.printify.me/   Get your copy of Very Luther Christmas Book by Dr. George Grant! https://www.google.com/search?q=A+Very+Luther+Christmas+George+Grant&sca_esv=f6c2e824aa46e09f&am...   Stand with us at Life or Death Con in Washington D.C. on January 22, 2026 — the frontline of Christian resistance!

In today’s episode we talk about the rarely discussed legal and moral connection between the Obergefell gay marriage decision and the explosive rise of in vitro fertilization. Seth traces how redefining marriage away from sexual difference and biological reality didn’t stop at weddings—but snowballed into an industry that treats children as products and parenthood as a purchasable desire. Drawing from a powerful, never-before-released speech delivered on stage to lawmakers and state legislators from over 33 states at the WallBuilders Pro-Family State Legislative Conference in Dallas–Fort Worth, Seth lays out why IVF is the next unavoidable consequence of Obergefell. This episode confronts “Big Fertility,” exposes the ethical costs hidden behind emotional appeals, and explains why children’s rights to their mother and father vanish when marriage is reduced to feelings. Seth makes the case that lawmakers are finally waking up—and that real resistance is beginning to take shape.   Get Your Gruber Wear! https://gruber-wear.printify.me/ Stand with us at Life or Death Con in Washington D.C. on January 22, 2026 — the frontline of Christian resistance!

In today’s episode we talk about the dark, buried legacy of Planned Parenthood’s founder—and the quotes they don’t want you to hear. Host Seth revisits Margaret Sanger’s own words, from eugenics to open hostility toward Catholics, Black Americans, Jews, Slavs, and anyone she deemed “unfit.” The episode unpacks the infamous 1989 Iowa radio moment that read Sanger’s writings verbatim, the frantic damage control that followed, and how modern Planned Parenthood worked to sanitize its origins. This is a receipt-by-receipt reckoning with history—and a challenge to the narrative you’ve been told.   Get your Gruber Wear!! https://gruber-wear.printify.me/ Stand with us at Life or Death Con in Washington D.C. on January 22, 2026 — the frontline of Christian resistance!

In today’s episode, we talk about the unraveling of Biola University—once known as the Bible Institute of Los Angeles, now revealed as a flagship for social-justice Christianity. Seth is joined by journalist Megan Basham to break down her explosive Daily Wire investigation that exposed Biola’s endorsement of an LGBT club, its provost’s critical race theory roots, professors practicing divination, chapel speakers condemning white people, and the administration’s public stance against “gay conversion therapy.” Together, Seth and Megan dissect Biola’s attempted response on its Thinking Biblically podcast—where the university conspicuously avoided naming her or the article that sent shockwaves through its donor base. They expose the evasions, the ideological drift, and the spiritual cost of a Christian university that appears more committed to cultural approval than biblical truth. If you’ve wondered what’s really going on behind the curtain at Biola, this episode lays it bare.     Get your Gruber Wear!! https://gruber-wear.printify.me/ Stand with us at Life or Death Con in Washington D.C. on January 22, 2026 — the frontline of Christian resistance!

In today’s episode we talk about how the evangelical church became apathetic—and whether that decay was intentional or simply the result of decades of compromise. Seth sits down with Ryan Helfenbein of Liberty University to uncover how progressive Christianity infiltrated seminaries and Christian universities. They trace the theologians who reshaped 20th-century evangelicalism, how the FDR-era social justice movement discipled the modern Democrat Party, and why today’s progressive Christian leaders range from obvious rainbow activists to wolves in sheep’s clothing. If you’ve wondered why the church lost its courage, this episode exposes the road that got us here—and what it will take to reverse it.   Stand with us at Life or Death Con in Washington D.C. on January 22, 2026 — the frontline of Christian resistance!

In today’s episode, Seth sits down with researcher Audrey Werner to expose the dark legacy of Alfred Kinsey — the man whose so-called ‘science’ helped normalize the sexual revolution, institutionalize pornography, and pave the way for America becoming both the top producer of porn and the top consumer of child trafficking. Audrey unpacks HB 2749, a powerful bill hitting Congress that would federally defund any university still using Kinsey’s discredited and abusive research. With the Epstein files resurfacing in American politics, Seth and Audrey draw the unavoidable connection: there would be no Epstein without Kinsey. They also explore how African nations are now grappling with — and pushing back against — the very sexual revolution America exported decades ago. This episode rips the veil off a century of corruption and reveals the ideological empire built on the suffering of children.   Stand with us at Life or Death Con in Washington D.C. on January 22, 2026 — the frontline of Christian resistance!
