Monique and Kevin discuss Rev. Jesse Jackson's recent death, marking the end of an era in Black civil rights activism.They reflect on their childhood reverence for Jackson as a civil rights icon alongside MLK, while also acknowledging how his legacy evolved into a "race hustler" who perpetuated grievance narratives and racial division rather than calling people to gospel repentance. They react to a clip from filmmaker and documentarian, Chad O. Jackson. Later, they react to a young social media personality who argues that multiculturalism/diversity weakens societies. It's a candid, "spicy" mix of nostalgia, sharp critique, humor, and a call to prioritize discipleship and true gospel hope.

Inclusion & Belonging in DEI: What Christians Need to Know | Family Meeting 1/8/26

In this special edition of The Family Meeting, Krista examines the "I" in DEI from a historic Christian perspective. She contrasts the widely agreeable "noble" definitions of inclusion and belonging with their real-world applications in workplaces and Christian institutions, highlighting unintended consequences, ideological conflicts with biblical teaching, and how DEI practices often infiltrate conservative Christian universities through a shifting of definitions. A thoughtful call for Christians to pursue biblical unity, hospitality, and impartial justice rather than secular social engineering.

Israel or Islam? Who's the Real Threat? | Family Meeting 12/29/2025

In this end-of-2025 live stream, Krista and Kevin tackle the explosive question dividing conservatives: Israel or Islam—which is the real threat to America and Christianity? They expose the rising "woke right" influence of Tucker Carlson (who calls concerns over radical Islam an "Israeli psyop" and blames Jewish influence for cultural decay), Candace Owens (downplaying radical Islam while obsessing over "Zionism"), and Nick Fuentes (openly arguing Jews/Israel are more powerful and dangerous than Islam). They warn against antisemitic tropes and grievance-based race hustling. Toward the end, we briefly ask, Why are Christian universities like Biola adopting Marxist-inspired DEI language? This is a timely, biblically-grounded conversation as fractures deepen in the post-Trump era.

Is the American Dream of Home Ownership Dead? + "America First" vs "America Only"

Gen Z is screaming that the American Dream is de@d — and the numbers look brutal: only ~10% of 30-year-olds today own a home AND are married compared to over 50% in the 1960s. BlackRock & private equity are buying up houses with cash, 50-year mortgages are being floated, and the rage at “greedy boomers” is everywhere. But is it really the boomers’ fault? Is corporate home-buying the real villain? Should we ban corporations from owning single-family homes? Deport illegals to free up housing? Or is the hard truth that Gen Z needs to hear something totally different? Then the conversation gets even spicier: Matt Walsh says “America ONLY,” not just America First — no more money to Israel, Ukraine, or anyone else. Is that real nationalism… or an isolationist trap that only benefits China and Russia? Monique, Krista and Kevin go deep (with receipts) on: 👉 The real reasons homes are unaffordable (hint: it’s not just interest rates) 👉 Why marriage rates collapsing is crushing the housing market 👉 The BlackRock “feudalism 2.0” meme — fact or fear-mongering? 👉 Impact of local policies on housing supply while everyone screams at the federal government 👉 50-year mortgages: salvation or slavery? 👉 America First vs. America Only — can we really retreat from the world and stay rich & safe? If you’re Gen Z and furious, a Millennial who gave up, or a parent trying to help your kids, this is the conversation everyone needs to hear.

Government Made 42M Dependent—And Now They’re Mad! | Family Meeting 10/29/25

Krista and Monique expose the dark side of SNAP and welfare dependency, triggered by viral videos of massive EBT-funded grocery hauls that scream entitlement. The reality is, there are 41.7 million people—one in eight residents of America—on SNAP. This is immoral and soul-damaging. Long-term government handouts can create lifelong reliance, infantilize adults, and embody socialism where the state that feeds you can just as easily starve you. We also discuss the reality that biblical justice demands charity starting at home and in the church—not endless checks—while urging relief to lead to development through discipleship, work, and self-sufficiency. Bonus: Monique roasts black pastors praying over Muslim socialist Zohran Mamdani and we briefly discuss the rise of the Red-Green alliance.

South African Refugees & Black Fatigue | Family Meeting | 5/14/25

What does the arrival of South African refugees in the US mean for Christians? In this Family Meeting, Monique and Kevin dive into the Trump administration’s decision to grant refugee status to 59 white Afrikaners while suspending other refugee programs. We explore the pros and cons of this policy, the land appropriation issues in South Africa, and the biblical question of partiality in justice. We also tackle "black fatigue"—the growing exhaustion with ratchet culture, violence, and racial grievance narratives in the black community. Have "ratchet" black Americans squandered the goodwill of their neighbors? How should Christians respond? Join us for this exciting discussion on race, culture, and justice. 📌 Timestamps 0:00 Intro 4:22 South African Refugees: What’s Happening? 10:49 NPR Report: Afrikaners Arrive in the US 15:20 Is This Partiality?
