The Heidi St. John Podcast

Most people have no idea what a county auditor does, but this office plays a critical role in protecting election integrity and maintaining public trust. In this episode of The Road to November, I sit down with Clark County Auditor candidate Eileen Quiring O'Brien to discuss why these often-overlooked local races matter, what the auditor is actually responsible for, and why Christians should be engaged long before November. If you care about honest elections and the future of your community, this conversation is for you.

What happens when Christians spend more time chasing hidden knowledge than pursuing biblical wisdom?

In this episode, I sit down with my son-in-law, Pastor Ryan Bates, to tackle one of the greatest challenges facing the Church today: discernment. From conspiracy theories and AI to confirmation bias and the lure of "secret knowledge," we discuss why so many believers are being pulled away from the clear truth of God's Word.

How do we recognize deception without becoming cynical? How do we pursue truth without sacrificing humility or unity? And in a world overflowing with information, how...

Welcome to Tuesday in Ten, a new weekly series where I spend ten minutes encouraging you with biblical truth for the world we're living in today.

This week, we're talking about the difference between knowledge and wisdom, why discernment matters more than ever, and how God's Word equips us to recognize truth in a culture full of confusion. Before you check the news, open your Bible.

If you grew up in a broken home, I want you to hear this: your past does not have to determine your future.

In this deeply personal conversation, I sit down with Kent Darcie to talk about the lasting impact divorce can have on children, even decades later. We discuss the fears, wounds, and patterns that so many people carry into adulthood and marriage, and why those patterns don't have to define the next generation.

Are we spending more time listening to Christian voices than opening God's Word for ourselves? This week I'm answering your questions about biblical friendship, sharing the gospel without losing heart, raising children in a confused culture, letting go of fear as our kids grow up, and why no podcast or pastor can replace a personal relationship with Christ. If you've ever wondered whether you're growing spiritually or simply consuming more content, this conversation is for you.

The road to November starts now, not on Election Day.

I've spent years telling you we can't complain about the direction of this country if we're unwilling to engage. Today, I'm talking about why primaries matter, why conservatives need to stop playing by yesterday's rules, and what each of us can do right now to help protect the future of our nation. The time to get involved isn't November—it's today.

America is standing at a crossroads, and the battle is bigger than one election. Today I'm breaking down why the SAVE Act has become the defining fight over election integrity, why four Republican senators are holding it up, and why now is the time to make your voice heard.

Then we're taking on the latest attacks against homeschooling, exposing the agenda behind them, and looking at why the fight for our children is inseparable from the fight for our country. Plus, disturbing comments from a socialist activist about "jihad" in America and why Christians can no longer...

What happens when the church stops speaking the truth? Pastor Shawn Newberry joins me for an honest conversation about faithful leadership, biblical truth, the role of Christians in politics, and why too many believers have confused passivity with faithfulness. We talk about public schools, voting, the church's responsibility in the culture, and why now is the time for Christians to get off the sidelines and onto the battlefield. If you've ever wondered whether your faith should shape the way you engage with the world around you, this conversation is for you.

I just returned from Washington, D.C., after touring the U.S. Capitol with Speaker Mike Johnson, and I walked away more convinced than ever that America's Christian heritage isn't a myth—it's written into the very fabric of our nation. From biblical artwork and Scripture throughout the Capitol to the faith that shaped our Founders, the evidence is hiding in plain sight. I'll also share why Christians must engage in this cultural moment with courage, truth, and biblical discernment instead of fear or outrage. If we want to preserve the freedoms we've been given, we have to remember th...

Every one of us has a past. Some of us just work harder to hide it.

We discuss the importance of an independent judiciary, the rule of law, and why every Christian should understand what's happening in our courts before heading to the voting booth.

America is celebrating 250 years of freedom—but are we quietly trading that freedom away?

Today I'm joined by historian Bill Federer for a conversation every American needs to hear. We unpack the rise of democratic socialism, why history is repeating itself, and how small groups of committed people can change the course of a nation. If we don't understand where these ideas come from, we'll never recognize them when they arrive at our doorstep.

Freedom isn't guaranteed. It's protected by people willing to defend it.

Seth Gruber joins me to sound the alarm: we are in a last stand moment for our nation. We expose the 1973 betrayal — when abortion was legalized, sexual chaos was unleashed, and America began a dangerous path toward civilizational collapse.

This isn’t just history — it’s a urgent call for Christians to wake up and fight back before it’s too late. You’re going to be challenged and stirred.

This Memorial Day, I’m reflecting on the sacrifice that built this country and the cultural chaos threatening the next generation. From violent “teen takeovers” to the collapse of parental authority, we’ve got to stop outsourcing our kids to the culture. Freedom isn’t self-sustaining. It requires virtue, discipline, gratitude, and parents who are willing to lead. Let’s talk about what happens when families stop discipling their children and why it’s time for moms and dads to step back into courageous leadership.
