What ONE insight will either make or break your life as a Christian, or even as a non-Christian? If followed, it will help your marriage, parenting, business, job, friendships, politics, and most importantly, your eternity and your relationship with Jesus. Spurred by recent political and cultural events surrounding President Trump’s first 100 days in office and comments made by Vice President J.D. Vance during a recent interview about protecting the interest of American citizens, Frank reminds listeners of the doctrine of “Ordered Loves”. Originally articulated by Augustine over 1,600 years ago, this classic school of thought seems to be totally lost among our culture today. Tune in as Frank answers questions like: What is the Doctrine of “Ordered Loves”, why is it so important, and how does it affect every…

A Wolf in Women’s Clothing: The One Question Trans-Activists Can’t Answer

“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.” Matthew 7:15 (ESV) The bathroom debate has resurrected some very old questions about women’s rights.[1] Once upon a time, women fought for separate bathrooms from men. The reasons were obvious. Privacy, modesty, prudence, and the unfortunate fact that men have a worse record for physical and sexual violence. It’s not in women’s best interests to get stuck in a bathroom with a strange man, if she can help it. But in recent years, the common-sense solution of “separate bathrooms” has come under fire. The Trump administration has introduced a new level of pushback, but the bathroom debate is still far from settled. I have to wonder, however, if we could let the air out…

Remembering Rush with David Limbaugh

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, conservatives, David Limbaugh, Dr. Frank Turek, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, The Rush Limbaugh Show, theology
Are you missing ‘The Rush Limbaugh Show’? You’re not alone! Rush didn’t just comment on the news–he inspired millions, entertained countless listeners, and was a refuge for conservatives during some of the most turbulent times in recent history. But what else made Rush such a towering figure in conservative media? Who better to answer that question than someone who knew him best—his brother! This week, New York Times best-selling author David Limbaugh joins Frank to celebrate Rush’s incredible legacy, reflect on his faith journey up until his passing in 2021, and discuss how David’s own dive into apologetics and Scripture led him to Christ. Together, they’ll tackle questions like: Why did so many people disagree with Rush–and why might that actually be a compliment? What made Rush a masterful broadcaster and sharp political commentator? What role did faith play…

Alex O’Connor Misses The Mark On His Distinction Between Types Of Worship

A key argument in Alex O’Connor’s debate with David Wood is the distinction Alex draws (in his first rebuttal) between “proskuneo” (Gk: προσκυνέω) worship and “latreuo” (Gk: λατρεύω) worship. Both proskuneo worship and latreuo worship are biblical terms used to describe worship or service to God, but they carry different shades of meaning. Proskuneo means to physically bow down, or prostrate oneself in order to show reverence. Latreuo means to serve or honour in a religious or sacrificial sense. In Romans 12:1 for example, Paul tells us to offer our bodies as a living sacrifice as latreuo to God). The crux of Alex’s argument is that, on these two senses of worship, Jesus never receives latreuo worship in the way that only God does, and there is nothing special about…
