The Ultimate Biblical Case for Christian Government (ft. James Baird)

Pastor James Baird joins The Waterboy to present the ultimate biblical case for why government must promote Christianity as the only true religion.

America First: Justice or Empathy?

On this episode of Crosspolitic, we expose how weaponized empathy and the sin of partiality are destroying both biblical justice and the America First movement, turning Christians into useful idiots for cultural Marxists who want us angry, divided, and playing their game instead of demanding the biblical distinctions that actually solve problems.

Buying A Business is Easier Than You Think (ft. David Reece)

This discussion revolves around how Christian men have a duty to take calculated risks, grow capital, and expand God's kingdom through business ownership, with Reece breaking down why buying a business can provide better returns than traditional employment while allowing you to bring biblical principles into the workplace.

Will Christianity Today Sell to Canon Press?

In this special CrossPolitic episode, Gabe welcomes Canon Press co-owners Aaron Rench and Nate Wilson to discuss their bold $10 million offer to purchase Christianity Today magazine. The conversation explores the strategic thinking behind major ministry moves, contrasting the "cruise ship vs. battleship" mentality that plagues many Christian organizations. Aaron and Nate discuss their vision to restore CT as a place where evangelical Christianity can "have it out", hosting real conversations between believers with different perspectives, rather than the current progressive echo chamber.

This did happen, and Burk is currently appealing the judgment. After talking to a member of St. Andrews Chapel today, it seems the presbytery might need its own house cleaned and that Burk is right in appealing his suspension. That is the other side of the story: Proverbs 18:17. So, while my original comments are true, I wanted to add that Burk is appealing his suspension.  My comments on St. Andrews Pastoral Salaries: I had read that the pastoral salaries were not released to their congregation and that Burk’s salary was $410k and their two assistant pastors salary was about $300k each. While I have no problem with paying good Pastors good money, the issue that caught my attention was that pastoral salary information was being withheld from the conjuration and some of the elders. This was supposedly reported from the regional presbytery, which I was willing to believe the local presbytery at this point, and come to find out that the presbytery never required St. Andrews to release any of the salary info. So, I was under the impression that the presbytery released the salary info, but the presbytery released nothing what so ever about the salary info. So, my comments on the salary drama were incorrect. So, I retract those comments and as forgiveness from the leadership of St. Andrews Chapel for adding to the rumor mill. Gabriel Rench

The conversation transitions into examining the dangerous inconsistencies plaguing American discourse, using Voddie's own words about liberals weaponizing terms like "freedom" while supporting abortion.

America's Altar Call

In this episode of Crosspolitic, the guys reflect on the unprecedented memorial service for Charlie Kirk, which drew over 50,000 attendees in person and over 100 million livestream viewers. They explore how this moment represents the end of "negative world" Christianity and the beginning of a new era of Christian nationalism, where political leaders are openly declaring Christ as King. Its important to emphasize that this isn't a time for compromise but for bold Christian leadership, calling for Christians to seize this generational opportunity to disciple the young men inspired by Charlie Kirk's example and to build a truly Christian culture in America.

Known for debating leading atheists and Muslims including Christopher Hitchens, Taunton brings his sharp analysis and hard-won perspective on faith, culture, and politics to examine why homeschooling has become essential for Christian families. The conversation explores Taunton's journey from military base public schools to becoming a homeschooling advocate after witnessing the radicalization happening in elite preparatory schools 30 years ago. Taunton emphasizes that youth are looking for meaning and mission - and when parents don't provide it, kids will find it in destructive ideologies.

Charlie Kirk vs. The Lie of Neutral Politics

In this episode of CrossPolitic, Gabe and Toby address the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk and deliver a wake-up call to the American church. They argue that the church has catastrophically failed in its duty as shepherds, receiving an "F minus" grade for allowing wolves to infiltrate education systems while pastors refuse to warn their congregations about the dangers of public schools. They critique the humanistic unity message being promoted in response to Kirk's murder, explaining how this false religion, which elevates humanity rather than God as the ultimate standard, actually breeds the very violence it claims to oppose. The conversation takes a hard turn toward biblical truth, with the hosts drawing from 2 Corinthians 6 to emphasize that there can be no unity between light and darkness, between Christ and those who hate Him. They challenge the "thou shalt be nice" mentality that has captured much of American Christianity, calling instead for believers to recognize the fundamental war between Christianity and humanism that has raged for over 150 years.

An American Turning Point

Charlie Kirk was a faithful Christian father and husband who was gunned down while speaking on a college campus. Joined by Pastor Doug Wilson and Lennox Kalifungwa, Knox and Toby talk through the massive implications of this devastating attack.The discussion explores how this tragic event represents a watershed moment in American history, with Pastor Wilson drawing parallels to the turbulent 1960s while noting that today's division runs much deeper into American institutions and culture. The conversation delves into biblical responses to injustice, discussing the need for swift execution of justice, public accountability, and the restoration of proper fear of consequences for criminal behavior. This attack wasn't just on one man, but on any Christian who stands for biblical truth, while calling for courage, faith, and faithful witness in the face of persecution.

Why is America in a Sex Recession?

In this episode of Crosspolitic Toby, Knox, and Gabe dive into a recent Institute for Family Studies report documenting America's "sex recession" - revealing that young adults aged 18-29 are having significantly less sex than previous generations, with sexlessness doubling since 2010. While initially seeming positive (less unmarried sex), it only takes exploring the deeper cultural implications to realize otherwise. With declining birth rates now below 1.6, reduced social interaction among young people, and a generation rewired by smartphones and social media since 2010, the discussion reveals how this trend points to broader issues of isolation, lack of real-world relationships, and a culture that has lost sight of biblical sexuality and marriage.

Bahnsen vs. Stein, Gary DeMar vs. End Times

In this episode of CrossPolitic Toby, Knox, and Gabe welcome back Gary DeMar, president of American Vision, to discuss "The Great Debate: Does God Exist?". The book serves as a reading and analysis of the legendary 1985 Bahnsen-Stein debate. DeMar explains why this 40th anniversary examination of the debate remains relevant today, highlighting how Greg Bahnsen's presuppositional apologetic approach completely dismantled Gordon Stein's atheistic arguments by forcing him to confront his own philosophical assumptions. The conversation takes an unexpected turn into eschatology, addressing the public perception of a "falling out" between DeMar and the CrossPolitic guys over theological differences. The conversation ultimately comes around to the substantive discussion about the resurrection of the dead, the physical return of Christ, and The Final Judgment.

The Collapse of Globalism and the Return to Faith (ft. @DrSteveTurleyTV)

In this episode of Crosspolitic, we sat down with Dr. Steve Turley, known as the Patriot Professor, to discuss his new book "America Awakened: The Collapse of Globalism and the Return to Faith, Family, and Freedom" and the global rise of faith-based traditionalism. Dr. Turley argues that we're witnessing the collapse of the 300-year liberal secular era and the emergence of a new golden age rooted in nation, culture, custom, tradition, and faith. The conversation explores how this civilizational populism is manifesting through the rediscovery of manhood, the renewal of family structures, and the rise of decentralized networks that bypass legacy media. Dr. Turley shares encouraging data showing men are returning to faith at unprecedented rates and discusses how the current cultural moment presents an opportunity for Christians to build, lead, and transform their communities.

When blood is spilled in your land and true justice is not served... judgment follows. Today we break down the Brian Kohlberger plea deal that shocked our community here in Moscow, Idaho. Four college students murdered, and the killer gets life in prison instead of biblical justice—the death penalty.
