We break down the four Catholic dogmas — mother of God, Immaculate Conception, perpetual virginity, and Assumption — explaining their traditional foundations.

Ep 1215 | Baylor University’s New LGBTQ Program Betrays Baptist Roots
09/07/2025 Duración: 01h05minUPDATE: One hour after this episode was published on audio platforms, Baylor University announced it was returning the grant money. You can read the school's statement here: https://x.com/Baylor/status/1943007545305485724 Today, we’re unpacking the progressive shift at Baylor University, a prominent Baptist institution in Waco, Texas, and its recent acceptance of an almost $700,000 grant from the Eula Mae and John Baugh Foundation. We explore how this funding, aimed at fostering "LGBTQ inclusion" in churches, signals a broader leftward drift at Baylor, despite its historical ties to Baptist values. We’ll dive into the grant’s purpose and its implications for biblical fidelity, and the university’s embrace of progressive ideologies like standpoint epistemology and DEI initiatives. We’ll also examine Baylor’s ties to the Baptist General Convention of Texas, its evolving policies on sexuality, and the broader cultural and spiritual battle over institutional capture.

Ep 1213 | Infant Baptism vs. Believers' Baptism: What’s Biblical?
02/07/2025 Duración: 56minToday, we're diving into the theological debate surrounding infant baptism, exploring the perspectives of paedobaptism versus credobaptism. We examine the arguments for infant baptism, practiced by Catholics and some Protestants (such as Presbyterians), and the Catholic belief that it washes away original sin. We also unpack the credobaptist position, held by Baptists and many non-denominational churches, which emphasizes believers' baptism as an outward sign of inward faith, rooted in New Testament examples like Jesus' immersion baptism. We’ll look at key scriptures, historical church practices, and the reasoning behind both views and give our thoughts on what we believe to be true. NOTE: We apologize for unintentionally leaving out a portion of Acts 2:38-41 in this episode.

Ep 1212 | The Left Cares About (Certain) Unborn Babies Now
30/06/2025 Duración: 01h02minToday, we're looking at New York Times columnist David French's apparent shift on "transgender" issues, as he's seemed to change his tune on preferred pronouns and how this relates to Christianity. We explore how this change undermines his claims of principled conservatism and examine the case of Brian Riedl, a Manhattan Institute fellow now identifying as Jessica, whose claims of having a "female brain" lack scientific backing. We also tackle the debate over birthright citizenship, unpacking the Supreme Court's recent ruling on Trump's executive order, and how birth tourism and chain migration are reasons we should consider doing away with birthright citizenship. Finally, we address a viral story about an ICE detainee allegedly losing her baby due to neglected medical care. The Department of Homeland Security claims this isn't true, so we look at counterclaims and urge caution against emotionally charged narratives.
