The conversation also dives deep into the charismatic spiritual gifts, such as healing, prophecy, and tongues, which Dr. Healy argues are "normal" for the Christian life rather than extraordinary rarities.

E270: Arrested For Wearing a Billboard: Fighting the Greatest Child Abuse Scandal | Lila Rose Show
When Chris Elston invested thousands of dollars to commission an “I Love JK Rowling” billboard in his Canadian hometown, it was removed within a day. Those who took it down thought they were shutting him up for good but instead, they unintentionally created a powerful force against political correctness. Realizing that any billboard could be silenced, Chris concluded that the only sign they couldn’t take down was the one he wore himself. And with that, “Billboard Chris” was born.
Since then, Chris has made waves across college campuses, government institutions, and public squares, sharing hi...

Why are so many young people flocking to socialism? That is the question I tackle with Seamus Coughlin, the animator, voice actor and producer behind one of YouTube’s biggest adult-cartoon political channels.
Seamus and I cover the full spectrum: the financial traps set for Millennials and Gen Z (and why Boomers can’t seem to understand them), why the left has become openly anti-God, and why the right — while fiercely anti-left — isn’t necessarily pro-God either. We also debate whether Sydney Sweeney deserves the right's adulation, whether Christian teaching conflicts with libertarianism, how small gove...

Too often, people experiencing same-sex attraction are treated like modern-day lepers. So how should we actually talk about it and how do we support those who struggle?
What can their experiences teach us about our own wounds and the ways human longing can be misdirected? Therapist Michael Gasparro and ministry leaders Andrew Comiskey and Kim Zember share how their past struggles with same-sex attraction became a path to deeper...

Ten years later, Neeza was still living as a woman, legally renamed Nicole. Everything shifted after a supernatural encounter in the forests of Vermont, an experience that transformed his life forever.
