From AI-generated sexual images of children and assisted suicide to courts restricting a child’s access to church and Disney packaging witchcraft for teens, the headlines are getting harder to believe. Heidi breaks down what these stories have in common and why Christians cannot afford to surrender moral clarity. Evil doesn’t become good because the culture approves it, the courts protect it, or Hollywood makes it attractive. This is the time for a faith that speaks, stands firm, and refuses to call evil good.

Grief is not evidence of weak faith. It’s evidence that we have loved. As we enter a week marked by the anniversary of Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the remembrance of 9/11, I want to talk about what Scripture actually says about sorrow. Jesus wept. God draws near to the brokenhearted. And Christians are never asked to pretend that loss doesn’t hurt.

Today, we’re talking about making room for grief without losing our hope, remembering that because of Jesus, death does not get the final word.

Parenting today seems to swing between two extremes: harsh, behavior-focused discipline and a “gentle parenting” culture that puts a child’s feelings in the driver’s seat. But there’s a better way. Ginger Hubbard joins me for a practical conversation about biblical discipline, reaching the heart of your child, teaching obedience without parenting in anger, navigating disrespect and the teenage years, and what to do when you realize you’ve gotten it wrong. Our goal isn’t simply well-behaved kids. It’s raising children who know God, love Him, and learn to walk in wisdom.

How young is too young to start dating, and how do parents know when to step in? Today I’m answering that question along with your questions about making faith part of everyday family life, re-baptism, grandparents who undermine your parenting, cremation, women and voting, and how homeschool families can prepare wisely without living in fear. Plus, I’m talking about the Lindsay Clancy case, conspiracy-driven groupthink, and why Christians have to let God’s Word—not emotion or culture—define truth and justice.

What happens when voters elect someone the left doesn’t like? Heidi talks with Jeff Joseph about the fight in Pierce County, Washington, and an effort that could end Sheriff Keith Swank’s elected term early. This is bigger than one sheriff—it’s about whether the will of the voters still matters and why we cannot afford to sit on the sidelines this November.

Our kids are falling behind academically while schools become increasingly focused on gender, identity, and ideology. Something is backwards. Today I’m talking about what education is actually supposed to do, why lowered standards are hurting our children, and why parents need to pay attention to who is shaping their hearts and minds. Our kids need truth, wisdom, and an education that prepares them for life.

The culture says women have to reject femininity to be strong. Scripture says otherwise. Today I’m looking at Deborah and Jael, the Lindsay Clancy case, and why biblical womanhood holds compassion, courage, truth, and responsibility together. It’s time to reclaim what it means to be faithful, fierce, and feminine.

What happens when the life you thought you had falls apart overnight? Keisha Wright joins me to share her incredible story of betrayal, trauma, forgiveness, and healing—and how God used what was meant to destroy her to bring her closer to Him. We’re talking about bitterness, lost hope, breaking generational patterns, and why your pain may be part of your story, but it does not have to become your identity.

There is hope after trauma, and you do not have to stay stuck in what happened to you.

How do we stay compassionate without abandoning discernment? On today’s Fan Mail Friday, I’m answering your questions about enjoying the little years without fearing what comes next, a pastor husband’s changing relationship with alcohol, helping others without enabling them, calling out false teachers, teenagers who seem embarrassed by their faith, and whether Christians have lost the gift of Sabbath rest. We’re covering a lot of ground today, but it all comes back to the same thing: we need biblical wisdom for the everyday decisions we’re facing.

Why is it controversial to say that only citizens should vote in American elections?

On today’s Road to November, I’m talking about the Supreme Court’s latest move on citizenship verification, the fight over voter rolls and mail-in ballots, and why Congress needs to act. Election integrity shouldn’t be partisan. We should all want elections that are secure, transparent, and worthy of our trust.

November is coming. Get off the bench.

The world isn’t getting easier—and raising kids who can stand firm in it won’t happen by accident. Today I’m joined by Dr. Matthew Weathers of Bob Jones University to talk about raising young people with character, conviction, competence, and courage. We’re talking about why kids need to do hard things, why parents have to model what we want our children to become, and how to prepare them to stand for Christ when the culture pushes back. Remember, we can’t pass on what we don’t possess.
