What the Mainstream Media Doesn’t Tell You About Immigration Law with Megyn Kelly

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, ICE, immigration, Law, Lawyer, Megyn Kelly, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
Why is the biblical (and common sense) purpose of the government to punish wrongdoers being reversed in Minnesota? Federal agents are being blocked from arresting criminals, local officials are shielding criminals from accountability while sweeping massive amounts of fraud under the rug, and anti-ICE agitators are disrupting worship services without any local police response? Who is in the right, legally? Political journalist Megyn Kelly joins the program to expose the legal reality behind the radical activism happening in Minnesota and the growing conflict between the feds and the state. Drawing on her experience as a lawyer, Megyn explains clearly and concisely why sanctuary cities are defying federal authority, and why Americans (especially Christians) can no longer afford to stay silent as Islam quietly gains ground in the West. Together, Frank and…

How in the world could a Christian and an atheist have a civil conversation about the current political climate in the West? It’s easier than you think! As free speech collapses across Europe and ideological enforcement tightens its grip on the U.S., many are asking, are we truly “free” anymore? This week, Frank is joined by philosopher Dr. Peter Boghossian, author of ‘A Manual for Creating Atheists‘, fresh off their surprise appearance together at the chaotic TPUSA event at UC Berkeley.

Bible, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Dr. Robert Gagnon, Homosexuality, marriage, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, sexuality, theology
Are Christian views on marriage and sexuality really “outdated,” or has culture slowly talked us into treating clear biblical teaching as a harmless disagreement? In this midweek podcast episode, Frank and Dr. Robert Gagnon continue their discussion by examining what the Bible actually teaches about homosexuality and why sexual ethics sit at the core of Christian morality.
