  • Are Transgender Athletes Destroying Women’s Sports? [Featuring Riley Gaines]

    Are Transgender Athletes Destroying Women’s Sports? [Featuring Riley Gaines]
    Jul 12 2024
    Should biological men who identify as “women” be allowed in women’s locker rooms and compete in women’s events? We live in a world where this is no longer a hypothetical question; it is a reality. Riley Gaines, a former competitive swimmer for the University of Kentucky, tied with male swimmer, Will “Lia” Thomas, in a women’s event. When he received the trophy she deserved, she could no longer remain silent. “All season we knew the unfair competition was wrong. We knew the locker room scene of having to undress and simultaneously exploit ourselves to a six-foot-four, fully grown, fully naked, fully intact man—we knew that was wrong. We knew the silencing that we were facing from our universities—we knew that was wrong … But it wasn't until this official reduced everything that we had worked our entire lives for—down to a photo op to validate the feelings and the identity of a man at the expense of ours—that’s when I decided I was no longer willing to wait,” Gaines stated. We are witnessing a war on women’s sports, and women’s safety is being jeopardized under the guise of “equality,” “acceptance,’ and “tolerance.” Listen to this podcast to discover how Riley Gaines became a voice for truth and how she continues to advocate for women’s rights in academic spaces.

  • Should We Support Christian Movies? [Featuring Michael Scott]

    Should We Support Christian Movies? [Featuring Michael Scott]
    Jul 5 2024
    Are you tired of obscene images and themes taking over our movies and entertainment? We’ve been desensitized. What would once incite feelings of shock and shame are considered commonplace in our culture. “It's crept in, in every way, and it's just this bombardment that's coming against us. But I think you're seeing things start to change. People are saying, ‘Wait a second. We've gone too far. The pendulum has swung way too far,’” Pure Flix CEO Michael Scott told me in this podcast. Biblical principles must take their place in government, entertainment, education, and beyond. It’s time to bring Jesus back to Hollywood, be a light in the entertainment industry, and support films that promote biblical values—voting with our dollars and our presence will bring more Christian content to our theaters and TVs.

  • How to Reach Public School Students with God’s Truth! [Featuring Joel Penton]

    How to Reach Public School Students with God’s Truth! [Featuring Joel Penton]
    Jun 28 2024
    Did you know a Supreme Court ruling allows children to learn about the Bible during public school hours? Joel Penton joins Pastor Allen on this podcast to discuss the positive ways this can impact children in our nation. Penton is the Founder and CEO of LifeWise Academy, which provides biblical education to public school students during the school day, covering the entire Bible by sixth grade. They operate their program based on a 1952 Supreme Court ruling that allows children to be released from school for religious education, with parental consent. “There are 13,000 public school districts, 90,000 school buildings, 50 million public school students, and we see no reason why we shouldn't at least try to make Bible education available to every single one,” Penton said. Listen to the podcast to learn more about this powerful way to bring God’s Truth to public schools.

  • Exposing Evil in Education [Featuring Jessica Tapia]

    Exposing Evil in Education [Featuring Jessica Tapia]
    Jun 21 2024
    Can you be terminated from your job for speaking the truth? That’s what happened to wife, mother, and former public school teacher Jessica Tapia while she was working in a Southern California district. "I had allegations put on me that the students crafted based off the Christian, conservative views they discovered that I hold—and they were outlandish," Jessica told Pastor Allen on this podcast. To keep her job, the district insisted she refer to students by their preferred pronouns, allow students to use bathrooms that aligned with their gender identity, and refrain from talking about her beliefs—at school and on social media. She knew following the district’s orders would mean denying her faith, so she refused to comply. Hear what happened when Tapia stood firm on the truth she knew and boldly upheld her biblical values—even when it came at a cost.

  • Modern-Day Lazarus: God Performs a Miracle [Featuring Randy and Ricky Knight]

    Modern-Day Lazarus: God Performs a Miracle [Featuring Randy and Ricky Knight]
    Jun 14 2024
    If you need proof God is still doing miracles, here’s a modern-day Lazarus story for you. “God gave me two miracles: He let me live, and He gave me my life back,” Ricky Knight told Pastor Allen during this podcast. Ricky went to the hospital for a routine colonoscopy and ended up going into cardiac arrest while he was lying on the gurney. His twin brother, Randy, was in the waiting room, and as soon as he found out what happened, he began to pray. They talk about the miracles that took place, the glimpse of Heaven God allowed Ricky to see, and how that experience changed the focus of their lives. “I died, and He—the resurrected King—resurrected me,” Ricky summarized. You’ll be encouraged by Ricky and Randy’s story, and you’ll also be entertained by the friendly banter between Pastor Allen and his long-time friends.

    “It is time to lean in and create the culture we want building our children's future world,” Kirk Cameron told Pastor Allen on this podcast about the importance of teaching children truth. Their engaging conversation will encourage anyone who is concerned about the deception washing over our children. “We've got to get back on the offense.

  • We’ve Got Issues [Featuring Dr. Phil McGraw]

    We’ve Got Issues [Featuring Dr. Phil McGraw]
    May 31 2024
    “Dr. Phil consistently stands up for a biblical worldview, which is something many pastors, church leaders, and people in our congregations aren't willing to do,” Pastor Allen said. He had the opportunity to meet with Dr. Phil to talk about Merit Street Media, a new network Dr. Phil and TBN launched that provides a biblically informed perspective on news and culture. They also discuss Dr. Phil’s book, We’ve Got Issues. Dr. Phil said, “When people come with ridiculous arguments, this book gives (readers) the information they need to push back and say, ‘No, wait a minute. That's wrong! And let me tell you why it's wrong.’” Pastor Allen also provides a biblical perspective on the importance of leadership and the need for godly voices. He said, “We've got to begin to understand what we believe, why we believe it, and the impact it will make. And I think Dr. Phil is a helpful voice in that.”
