Sue Swayze Liebel with the Susan B. Anthony List is on the show today to chat about what's relevant now in the pro-life arena.

The Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America was founded in 1992 as the political arm of the pro-life movement. Since their founding, SBA Pro-Life America has grown into a nationwide network of more than 1,000,000 Americans committed to serving women and saving babies.

Hope you can tune in.

Gabby Ide is one of the nicest people I've met. With a great smile and a ready hug every time we see each other, she has truly become a friend.

But don't doubt her tenacity.

As a former champion mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter, Gabby knows we are in a battle not just physically with our flesh against our spirit. We are fighting against principalities. Evil forces that want to separate the influence of parents over their own children.

Not on her watch.

And that's why she's the head of the Anchorage chapter of Moms for Liberty. As she notes though, as an athlete getting in the cage, if you are angry with your opponent, you've already lost. She epitomizes the Moms for Liberty brand calling their members to be "Joyful Warriors."

Super grateful to have her on the show today.

Why did the Alaska Superior Court undermine tens of thousands of Alaskan families utilizing educational choice options other than Government-run schools ?

What does the latest Alaska Supreme Court decision upholding the private and homeschool allotment program mean ?

Joel Davidson, my good friend at the Alaska Watchman, is one of the most educated and articulated citizens I know regarding this issue. I'm blessed to have him as a brother in Christ and to have him on the show today.

Shishmaref, as the crow flies, is about 100 miles north of Nome on the Bering Land Bridge National Preserve, known in some circles as the "nose" of Alaska.

Tyler Ivanoff, a school teacher, community leader and basketball coach, among other vocations, took a break from hunting seals and sea bird eggs recently to chat with me about his campaign to represent District 39 as a House member.

He's running as a Nonpartisan candidate against Democrat Neil Foster who has served in the House since 2009 after he was appointed to the House to replace his father, Richard Foster, who had died in office the previous month.

In 2022, Foster edged out Ivanoff by less than 100 votes.

Ivanoff has said he is unwilling to join a coalition majority in which the opposite political party controls a majority of seats. He's also noted that his priorities include "safeguarding our children and their futures, enacting legislation to protect salmon, preserving the Permanent Fund Dividend, and ensuring the integrity of girls' sports." In legislation passed by the House last month, Foster joined with all the other Democrat lawmakers voting to allow biological males to compete against girls.

Grateful to have the opportunity to visit with Alaskans from the farthest corners of our state.

I hope you can tune in.

We live in extraordinary times as Christ-followers.

Not that there hasn't been chaos and antagonism or being marginalized for holding to scriptural truth. People of the Way have always been a minority. As C.S. Lewis noted, we are in..."Enemy-occupied territory---that is what this world is. Christianity is the story of how the rightful king has landed, you might say landed in disguise, and is calling us to take part in a great campaign of sabotage.”

What is new, and is one of the central themes in local author and influencer Leigh Sloan's new book Pride and Privilege is that words and their meanings have changed.

The book's title is in fact a play on words that in today's context, mean something far different than in another era not that long ago.

Leigh gives sound advice on what it means to put on the "glove of cultivation" in terms of how we engage with those around us with different realities, different assumptions, even different vocabularies.

We are each placed in a particular place at a particular time to engage with particular people. Are we doing more than complaining ?

Leigh has provided clarity for those of us who really want to be salt and light as Jesus asks. I'm honored to call her a friend and grateful she's on the show today.

Joel Penton knows what it means to tackle things.

As a former defensive end for THE Ohio State University Buckeye football team, he has plenty experience identifying a target and wrapping it up.

For now though, he's tackling much bigger issues.

Joel is the CEO of LifeWise Academy, a religious education program that provides Bible studies to public school students DURING SCHOOL HOURS.

And this ministry is literally exploding all across the country ! CLICK HERE to join the effort in the Anchorage School District that is already in the planning stages.

A U.S. Supreme Court opinion has long ago clarified the legality of such programs as long as they are 1) off school property 2) privately funded and 3) opted in by parents. Alaska Family Council is working closely with LifeWise Academy to bring this exemplary program to every school district in the Great Land.

Their proven record of significant improvements in the areas of character education, mental health, academic outcomes and community involvement has created massive interest from schools and families.

We're excited to ride the wave and I'm thrilled to shoot the breeze with a fellow Buckeye :-)

I hope you can tune in.
