Relatable With Allie Stuckey

Today we're looking at a few research studies on what Christians do and what Christians think. First, we look at a study that shows younger evangelicals care more about climate change than their elders. We discuss why this is and how the media and leftist agenda have infiltrated their thinking. We turn to scripture to see what the Bible has to say about God's sovereignty over the Earth. We also look through some statistics on opinions on gay marriage in America and explain how protestants tend to be more conservative on average than Catholics. The last study we're discussing is focused on philanthropy, in which we see that Christians are giving more than any other group worldwide. Then, we're joined by Andy Schoonover, CEO of CrowdHealth, to talk all things health care. Andy shares the mission, benefits, and challenges of CrowdHealth and how the Christian mindset fits into this model of health insurance. --- Timecodes: (01:12) Evangelical views on climate change (14:06) Views on gay marriage (23:43) Philan

Today we're joined by Care Net president and CEO Roland Warren to discuss his pro-life ministry and how Christians should respond to and take action on the issue of abortion. We talk about how Christians should engage with their friends and family who are hostile to the pro-life perspective and discuss how we should view the life issue through the lens of discipleship. Then, we talk about how churches and pastors need to invest in this issue as ministry and why it's a huge problem when pastors think of the abortion issue as a political matter rather than ministry. Then, Roland shares his deeply personal story of what led him to advocate for men to step up in the face of unplanned pregnancies and why this is a game-changer for the issue. --- Timecodes: (01:34) Interview with Roland begins (01:55) What is Care Net (04:57) How do Christians engage with hostility to pro-life perspective?

Today we’re reviewing the craziest Tik Toks and clips we could find, so move on over to YouTube if you want to watch along! We start with Dylan Mulvaney’s TikTok claiming he carries tampons in case a woman nearby needs one. We dive into our theories on that. Then, we look at adults who need affirmation from kids, adults who are a little bit TOO into kids' things, and adults who get in public fights over masks. We discuss progressive Christianity, "stay-at-home girlfriends," and anti-white racism, which all seem to be abundant in Clown World. --- Timecodes: (00:58) Clip review begins (01:33) Dylan Mulvaney tampon response (13:10) Polyamorous woman needs kid approval (15:55) Furries in public (20:10) Furry at a pride event (21:39) Covid crazy gets angry (24:43) Woke church (26:24) Dating as a progressive Christian (29:40) Stay-at-home girlfriend (32:45) Anti-white racist (36:29) French protestors dragged off road --- Today's Sponsor: EdenPURE — get 3 Thunderstorm Air Purifiers for under $200 at EdenPureDe

Today we're joined by Dallas Jenkins, creator and writer/director/producer of "The Chosen," the first multi-season show on the life of Jesus. We talk about his career in filmmaking and how a career failure led to an important lesson that changed his life. He shares why he created the show and why it seems to resonate so deeply with people. Then, we discuss how much work truly goes into writing a show that uses the Bible as its source. The goal, for Dallas, is to ask, "What is biblically plausible?" as he gets insight from biblical, historical, and cultural scholars to craft the characters. We discuss criticism of the show, much of which has centered around skepticism about LDS involvement in the show's distribution. And ultimately Dallas reminds us that while "The Chosen" is based on the Bible and the life of Jesus and his disciples, it doesn't claim to be the Bible, as only the Bible itself is the true authority. You can watch the third season of "The Chosen" on the Chosen app. --- Timecodes: (01:14) Dall

Today we’re joined by Lynn Wilder, author of Unveiling Grace: The Story of How We Found Our Way out of the Mormon Church and host of the “Unveiling Grace” podcast, who is sharing her story of finding Christ and leaving the Mormon church. We discuss her introductions to the Mormon church and what led her to not just join, but become deeply involved in Mormon community. We look at some general Mormon doctrine, such as what Mormons believe about the Bible and God’s unchanging nature. Lynn shares the instances that led to the breaking down of her Mormon faith, from teaching at BYU to hearing her son’s salvation story. We discuss Mormon influence over Christian homeschool curricula and media and some questions we should ask about this. Then, Lynn shares the gospel that changed her life. --- Timecodes: (01:05) Interview with Lynn begins (02:30) Upbringing and joining the LDS church (12:45) Mormon doctrine / theology (23:17) Reasons for leaving (33:07) Lynn's son is saved (40:57) John 1 (50:00) Mormons in culture

Today on this very Christmas-themed episode, we’re answering the question: Is Christmas pagan? We look at John Piper's response to this question and elaborate on why, while some Christmas traditions may have pagan origins, it is very good to celebrate the birth of Christ and all it represents. Ultimately, like with all things, we want to make sure not to esteem Christmas above Christ himself. Then, we get into a controversial take: not sharing Santa with one's kids. Allie shares her story of finding out Santa isn’t real and how this impacted her view of the topic now. We talk about laying a foundation of integrity and trustworthiness for our kids. Lastly, we take a look at the White House's Respect for Marriage Act signing ceremony and Biden's statement that LGBTQ people are being "thrown out of restaurants" and that trans kids and doctors offering "gender-affirming care" are being targeted. We respond to these wild statements and look at why leftists have gotten so extreme, so quickly. --- Timecodes: (4:1

Today we’re starting off with more news on the Respect for Marriage Act, which is being signed into law today. The Biden administration has invited a drag queen (who regularly performs for kids) to the signing, which further proves that this isn’t just about moderate marriage policies – it’s a part of the sexual revolution tied together with these other sexual agendas. Another person the Biden admin has hoisted up is Sam Brinton, the former deputy assistant secretary of the Office of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition at the Department of Energy, who was recently caught multiple times stealing women’s luggage from airports. We discuss the news that he's finally been fired. Then, we look at American Girl’s double down on its book promoting puberty blockers to young girls. --- Timecodes: (02:00) Intro  (05:17) Drag queen invited to the White House for signing of Respect for Marriage Act (20:48) Sam Brinton update (30:04) American Girl update --- Today's Sponsors: Genucel — go to genucel.com/ALLIE and get th

Today we're joined by Auron MacIntyre, Blaze News columnist and BlazeTV host, to discuss the fall of democracy, the Twitter Files, and Brittney Griner. First, we ask where the line is between voting based on our Christian worldview and theocratic rule and explain why our values cannot be separated from what they inform. We talk about how the elites are always going to try to shape our politics. Then, we look at the Twitter Files, which were released periodically over the past week and revealed inside information on how pre-Elon Twitter colluded with the government to hide information during the election and also shadow-banned conservative accounts they deemed threatening. We also discuss Yoel Roth, Twitter's former global head of trust and safety, who seems to have a quite disturbing pattern of beliefs. We look at the Brittney Griner prisoner swap and explain why descriptors put you at the front of the line for special treatment and ultimately why this was such a big virtue signal direct from the White House.

Today we're joined by a few different guests to talk about some big news stories from this week. First, Chrissy and Lee Hicks have been in the news this week after Duke University Medical Center refused to give their daughter Yulia, who was adopted from Ukraine, a kidney transplant she desperately needs. The reason? Her parents don't want her to get the COVID vaccine. While they were previously told the vaccine was a recommendation, it appears to now be a requirement. Chrissy and Lee share their story and how we can help. Then, we're joined by our friend Kirk Cameron to talk about his new film, "Lifemark," and the importance and beauty of adoption, as well as this week's news that over 50 public libraries, many of which have hosted drag queen story hours, have refused to allow Kirk a story hour for his new family-friendly book, "As You Grow," claiming the "messaging does not align." --- Timecodes: (02:40) Interview with Chrissy and Lee Hicks (24:29) Intro to Kirk interview (26:05) Interview with Kirk Camer

Today we start by discussing the American Girl company turning its back on girls. Recently, American Girl started selling a book called "A Smart Girl's Guide: Body Image" that actively encourages young girls who feel uncomfortable with their bodies to pursue gender transition. Not only does the book explicitly talk about puberty blockers for kids, it also has advice for how kids can deal with this with no input from their parents at all. It seems like American Girl went from telling young girls that being a girl is a good thing to telling them to simply stop being a girl if they don't like it. Then, we welcome our friend James Lindsay, author of "The Marxification of Education: Paulo Freire's Critical Marxism and the Theft of Education," back to the show to discuss several things, including James' recent return to Twitter, the drama surrounding an old photo of him, and why leftists can't stand to be ignored. We also talk about the leftist "religion" in general, how leftists believe they can build a paradise o

Today we're starting with an update on the Kanye West (Ye) controversy after some of you pointed out that the symbol Ye tweeted (which led to his eventual Twitter suspension) was that of the Raelian Movement, a UFO-based religious group. The story just keeps getting weirder. We discuss how this might tie into his statements of late and why his roots in black supremacy theology are problematic. Then, we look into 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis, a case that questions whether Lorie Smith, an artist who runs her own design studio, 303 Creative, should be forced by Colorado law to create websites promoting messages that contradict her beliefs about marriage. We break down yesterday's arguments and explain why this is yet another monumental case to determine what free speech and religious liberty mean in this country. We finish with the tragic story of Athena Strand, a 7-year-old girl who was kidnapped and murdered by a FedEx driver. We reiterate why the death penalty is not only just, it's necessary in cases like this

Today we're diving into the Kanye West (who now legally goes by "Ye") saga that's been unraveling over the past few weeks. We break down the entire timeline, from Ye's initial controversial statements on Tucker Carlson and at Paris Fashion Week to his scary and unhinged comments against Jewish people this week. We look at some of the statements from the unreleased parts of Ye's Tucker Carlson interview and on the podcast "Drink Champs." We discuss his dinner with Trump and the controversy of Ye's relationship with Nick Fuentes and Milo Yiannopoulos. Then, we talk about Ye's appearance on "Timcast," in which he stormed off set after host Tim Pool pushed back on his views on Jewish people, which was quickly followed by an appearance on Alex Jones’ “Infowars,” where he shared very clear and consistent praise for Hitler and Nazis. He was then kicked off Twitter for posting similar anti-Semitic statements. We end with some final thoughts on how we as Christians should approach “speaking out” against things like th

Today we're joined by Joshua Broome, pastor and host of the "Counterfeit Culture" podcast, to discuss his incredible story of redemption from porn star to pastor. He shares his story, from how he got into the porn industry to finding Christ. We talk about his recruitment into the industry and his findings on the horrors within, including questions of trafficking and consent. We discuss what's really going on in the porn industry, and he explains his response to the common phrase "sex work is work." Then, we take a look at his breaking point and his returning home after leaving the industry and his struggles with hiding his past. He shares his journey of meeting his wife, becoming a father, and ultimately finding true healing in Christ. We also discuss what policies should be in place to protect us from the evils of porn. --- Timecodes: (01:45) Interview with Joshua begins (14:35) Entry into the porn industry (26:35) About the industry (34:59) Response to "sex work is work" (40:22) Joshua's breaking point (

Today we're talking about the Senate's passing of the Respect for Marriage Act and how Christians should respond. We look at the reasons why this bill is so dangerous for religious liberty and discuss our utter disappointment in the weak Republicans who voted this in. Then, we're joined by Pedro Gonzalez, associate editor at Chronicles: A Magazine of American Culture, to discuss his new report, "The Transgender Leviathan," which is a deep dive into the world of trans culture and ideology. We discuss how lucrative the transgender medical industry is, who is profiting from "gender-affirming care," specifically surgeries and drugs that ruin young peoples' bodies, and why exactly these entities feel incentivized to keep encouraging these "treatments." We cover the story of John Money's horrific experiments on David Reimer, a boy raised as a girl under medical advice. We talk about how it's both Democrats and Republicans who have contributed to this issue and ask how conservatives should respond and what we can do

Today we're rounding up a few news stories, but first we give an update on the Balenciaga saga after the company released yet another semi-apology. We discuss the Tampax tweet that sexualized tampons, which the company doubled down on before apologizing, as well as the NHL's tweet in support of a transgender hockey tournament, followed by the statement that "trans men are men and trans women are women." We talk about why these tweets are so off-base and the need to hold companies accountable. Then, we briefly look at the atrocious Colorado Springs shooting and the Left's heartless insistence that "anti-trans rhetoric" was the cause, only for it to come out that the suspect is non-binary. We take a look at Biden's "gender-fluid" nuclear official Sam Brinton, who was just charged with stealing a woman's luggage at the airport, and talk about the fascinating story of twin 30-year-old embryos being born. --- Timecodes: (01:00) Balenciaga update (06:04) Tampax tweet (18:02) NHL trans tournament tweet (23:35) Co

Today we're talking about Balenciaga's horrifying ad campaign. The campaign, which has faced intense backlash, featured children posing with the company's BDSM-themed items (including a teddy bear backpack), while set dressing for one photo includes a document from a court case about child pornography. The ads were removed from circulation, and Balenciaga issued something of an apology, while also blaming others for the ad. In the end, who is responsible, and where were the parents? We look into these questions and discuss why this response from Balenciaga is not good enough. Then, we talk about Tia Mowry's divorce announcement, in which she claims she put "self-love" over keeping her marriage going. We explain why this is the ultimate selfish decision, why it's detrimental for the kids involved, and why the ever-growing philosophy of "choosing your own happiness" is poisonous. --- Timecodes: (00:44) Intro: Thanksgiving recap, illness, and Christmas merch (08:20) Balenciaga ad campaign (47:41) Tia Mowry's

Today we're joined by Naomi Schaefer Riley, resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and author of "The New Trail of Tears: How Washington Is Destroying American Indians," to discuss what's really happening on Native American reservations. Many of us have heard of the disproportionate rates of violence and crime on reservations, but there's little information on why this is happening. One of the biggest problems isn't lack of funds, as many on the Left would have you believe – it's mismanagement of funds. We talk about how the cycle of throwing money at the problem never fixes it and discuss the horror of the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978, which prioritizes keeping Native American children on reservations over putting them in safe homes. We also discuss poor education rates on reservations and look intro why Native Americans don't seem to have the same protections from crime and violence that the rest of the country does, even though they are U.S. citizens just like anyone else. Then, we ask wh

Today we're joined by Marc Morano, founder of Climate Depot and author of "The Great Reset: Global Elites and the Permanent Lockdown," to discuss the politics of climate change ideology and the recent COP27 U.N. climate change conference held in Egypt. We discuss the global elites' need to force the doctrine of climate change upon us and explain exactly why this is the specific issue they've chosen. We look at some of the science behind their beliefs and ask if there's some truth behind any of it. One example of wishy-washy science is the former insistence that polar bears will quickly become extinct. Now we see polar bear statistics scrapped from climate change materials, as polar bear populations increase. We hear about the COP27 climate change conference and discuss why Klaus Schwab, who gave a speech at the conference, seems to be regarded as a national leader of sort despite only heading the WEF. We take a look at the hypocrisy of global leaders and regimes as they say one thing, yet live very differentl

Context is key when interpreting the meaning behind a verse of the Bible. Many Christians might believe that Jeremiah 29:11 must mean that God will give His people prosperous lives without suffering. However, when we explore the background of the book of Jeremiah leading up to the verse, we discover that it has a much richer message than that. --- Relevant Previous Episodes: Ep 192 | Most Misused: Matthew 7:1 https://apple.co/3Oh4wb1 Ep 225 | Most Misused: Psalm 46:5 https://apple.co/3tFfy0h Ep 184 | Most Misused: Psalm 37:4 https://apple.co/3UMgThU Ep 414 | Most Misused: Micah 6:8 https://apple.co/3OnAGBR --- Buy Allie's book, You're Not Enough (& That's Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love: https://alliebethstuckey.com/book Relatable merchandise – use promo code 'ALLIE10' for a discount: https://shop.blazemedia.com/collections/allie-stuckey Learn more about your ad choices.
