Male & Female He Created Them: Understanding Gender, Sexuality, & Marriage — Colin Smothers
Why is understanding marriage and the nature of men and women so crucial? As Dr. Colin Smothers and Dr. Jeff discuss, the Bible begins with a marriage between Adam and Eve, the gospel is explained as a marriage, and history ends with a marriage between the Lamb and the Church, the Bride. If we lack an understanding of marriage, sexuality, and human nature, we will inevitably have trouble understanding the good news of Jesus and the biblical narrative. Check out Dr. Smothers' book, Male and Female He Created Them: A Study on Gender, Sexuality, & Marriage. Listen to every episode of the Dr. Jeff Show wherever you listen to podcasts.

Finding Hope in Gen Z's Spiritual Beliefs — Kasey Leander
Dr. Jeff is joined by Summit Ministries' new Program Director, Kasey Leander, to discuss what many will see as the surprising openness of Gen Z to hearing and learning more about God, as evidenced by research that found one-third of 18-to-25 year-olds are more open than not about the existence of a higher power. Leander offers evidence from his own experience evangelizing on college campuses that the rising generation is longing for answers to their biggest questions. And open to hearing about Jesus in pursuit of those answers. The key in witnessing to them, he says, is to recognize and act on the truth that outrage is not a strategy, and to lead with a question when aiming to start a God conversation.

Identity, Sexuality, & Our Identity in Christ — Rob Jackson
In a culture that tells us to look inside ourselves, speak our truth, and just be ourselves, the Christian narrative is a beacon of truth and light. Jesus calls us to deny ourselves and find our foundational identity in him. This refocus leads to an abundant life. Rob Jackson, a licensed counselor with Focus on the Family, shares what a healthy identity, sexuality, and purpose look like.

What Makes a Great Marriage... and Why It's Worth It — Dr. Bob Paul
Dr. Bob Paul, vice president of the Focus on the Family Marriage Institute, explains what marriage is and shouldn't be in this discussion with Dr. Jeff Myers which may surprise some people. He acknowledges that one of the reasons young people of faith today may not want to wed is tied to the poor examples provided by some older married believers – who fail to let God direct their marriages in the righteous way he wishes. "The most common reason for divorce is 'irreconcilable differences,'" Dr. Paul explains. "But differences are never the problem in marriage. They are designed by God on purpose with purpose" to help us grow our character and Christlikeness as individuals who then help our spouses do the same.

America's Storytellers — Kevin & Sam Sorbo
The stories we tell ourselves and believe shape our goals, priorities, and what the good life looks like. Throughout the Gospels, we see Jesus telling others about the truth through stories and examples. He knew that to transform individuals, they must see themselves as part of the Christian grand story of reality. Kevin and Sam Sorbo join Dr. Jeff to discuss the centrality of storytelling and how it profoundly influences culture and individuals. They share the tremendous work they've been doing in producing quality films, books, and podcasts that are unafraid to share the truth and God's vision for a flourishing life.

The Importance of America's Founding Documents— Jameson Broggi
For eight years, beginning when he was still a college student, Jameson Broggi worked tirelessly to get the South Carolina state legislature to pass the Reinforcing College Education on America's Constitutional Heritage (REACH) Act. Signed into law in April '21, the REACH ACT requires all South Carolina college students to take a three-credit-hour class on the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence and the Federalist Papers to graduate. He and Dr. Jeff Myers discuss why he pushed so hard for the legislation and the impact it can have. "People aren't born knowing these things," Broggi says. "They must be taught and learned." And when they are, as Dr. Jeff explains, the results can change the electorate in a generation. In South Carolina every year, about 21,000 college students now take a class on America's founding documents because of Broggi's work. And other states are currently considering similar legislation.

Why Marriage Counseling Must Focus on Mind, Body, Soul and Spirit — Glenn Lutjens
Glenn Lutjens, a marriage and family counselor at Focus on the Family, talks with Dr. Jeff about the way in which he offers wisdom to couples rooted in caring for their bodies, minds, souls and spirits. He explains how psychiatrists like Sigmund Freud championed an approach that removed the spiritual focus from the equation and why doing so has often resulted in incomplete and insufficient assistance being offered to couples struggling in their marriages. Restoring the spiritual element to counseling couples, he explains, allows both husband and wife to embrace their God-designed roles as spouses.

Painful Insights From a War Zone (Part 2) — Dr. Jeff in Israel
In this second episode in which he recounts his visit to Israel in the midst of its war with Hamas, Dr. Jeff Myers unpacks the complexities of subjects like just war theory and what Christians can do to help restore peace to the land where Jesus lived. He explains that Hamas attacked Israel not to achieve a military objective, but to achieve its long-stated goal to eradicate its enemy nation and notes how Israel engages the conflict from the exact opposite position: seeking only to defend itself while limiting civilian casualties when at all possible. He points out that Gaza, ruled by Hamas, has received 15 times the aid it cost to rebuild Europe after World War II and says believers need to understand the motives of Hamas and how they are driving the brutal war or they risk being part of "a conspiracy of ignorance."

Painful Insights From a War Zone (Part 1) — Dr. Jeff in Israel
In this special episode, Dr. Jeff Myers recounts details from his recent trip to Israel with a group of multifaith leaders amid the nation's war with Hamas. He explains why he was flummoxed by research that shows the rising generation knows Hamas is a terrorist group, but still sympathizes with its attack on Israel because of Palestinian grievances. He also speaks movingly of visiting the sights of bombings and burnings and seeing horrifying images or the murders of Israeli citizens and says he felt it important to experience because "In order to teach truth well, I have to immerse myself in an experience." He summarizes his trip as making crystal clear a truth we all must understand: The attack on Israel is not a geopolitical conflict but a geotheological one, in which those who stand for a biblical worldview have been attacked by those who stand against God.

Matt Heard — Embracing Your God-Given Humanity & Purpose (Rebroadcast)

Rather than acting more spiritual or being more religious, we're called and enabled to become more fully human… and alive.

Natasha Crain — Truth is on the Endangered Species List. Here's How to Remove It (Rebroadcast)
Author Natasha Crain knows a biblical worldview is a rarity in the U.S. today—with just 6 percent of Americans possessing what qualifies as such a framework for living. She exhorts that remnant in her book Faithfully Different to boldly stand for what the Scriptures proclaim as truth. A good place to start, she says, is by combatting the four lies that feelings are the ultimate guide, happiness is the ultimate goal, judging is the ultimate sin and God is the ultimate guess. "We can't judge what's true by people's reaction to it," she says. To learn more about Crain, visit www.natashacrain.com. Listen to every episode of the Dr. Jeff Show wherever you listen to podcasts.

Paul Copan — Want to Read the Bible Well? Read it in Context (Rebroadcast)
Theologian, analytic philosopher, apologist and author Paul Copan answers the questions about God's character that Christians often get from nonbelievers looking to paint God as violent, misogynistic and racist. The author of Is God a Vindictive Bully? explains in this wide-ranging conversation with Dr. Jeff Myers that to get the full insight into God's goodness requires us to read Scripture in the context of both its cultural time and its literary genres. "God is not wrathful in spite of love," he notes. "He's wrathful because of love." Listen to every episode of the Dr. Jeff Show wherever you listen to podcasts.

Dr. Mark David Hall — Why We Must Understand the True Role of Christianity in U.S. History
Christians and Christianity are treated almost universally unfairly in discussions of American history in secular universities, Dr. Mark David Hall explains in this discussion of his new book, Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land: How Christianity Has Advanced Freedom and Equality for All Americans. He discusses with Dr. Jeff Myers how since the mid 20th century secular leftists have largely read Christianity out of our nation's history—and when they have noted what they believe to be the impact of the faith and the faithful on the country they've viewed it through all the wrong lenses. The remedy, he explains, is to examine history factually, not ideologically. When we do, we discover that Christians have been a force for liberty and equality for all Americans—on issues as varied as slavery and abortion.

Warwick Fairfax — Losing $2.25 Billion & Finding True Identity
Growing up the 5th generation heir to Australia's largest media dynasty, Warwick Fairfax had his destiny decided for him. Or so he thought. At age 26 in the late '80s, fresh from Harvard Business School, he launched a takeover to bring the company fully back under family control again -- a bid that failed by 1990 and ended with the business founded by his great-great-grandfather going into receivership. From the ashes of what he calls that "crucible experience," though, was birthed a calling all his own as founder of Beyond the Crucible -- a vision built upon his faith in Christ and dedicated to helping others realize what he's now long known: they are more than their setbacks and failures, and their identities are not forever tied to the worst days.

Israeli Author Dov Lipman — 'God's Word Will Come True Over Time'
This week's conversation between Dr. Jeff and Jewish Author Dov Lipman, a native of the U.S. who immigrated to Israel in 2004 and served in the Israeli parliament, was recorded months before the Hamas attack on Israel. But the fortitude and hope that guides Jews today with their country embroiled in war is evident in Lipman's perspective that despite 2,000 years of persecution, Jews remain ever certain they will prevail ... because they believe they are God's chosen people. Regardless of the challenges that have come and will come, Lipman says, "God's Word will come true anyway. We'll emerge on the other side."

Dr. Jeff Myers — What is Christian About Being Conservative? Two Points to Ponder
This special episode features Dr. Jeff Myers addressing the Western Conservative Summit about how Christians changed the course of history. They did it, he explains, by understanding truth to not be based on logical propositions or mathematical formulas, but by seeing it as a person: Jesus Christ. Noting how many in the rising generation question what's so Christian about being conservative, Myers discusses a pair of pivotal perspectives for an ordered and orderly society informed by a Jesus-centric worldview: understanding the value of every person as an image-bearer of God and rightly recognizing the rule of law as being based on rights granted not by society, but by him.

Lucas Miles — Woke Jesus & Progressive Christianity
Lucas Miles—a pastor and trusted voice in the American church who has consistently addressed some of the most challenging topics in religion—unpacks the dangers of progressive Christianity. These radical alternatives abandon traditional biblical interpretations regarding marriage, gender, racial equality, justice, original sin, heaven and hell, and salvation, replacing them within a new fabricated morality. This fabrication is built around a so-called political correctness, cancel culture, hedonistic values, obsession with public health, allegiance to political parties, and virtue signaling.
