Trump's Tariffs and Temple Tax

How Sexual Liberation Corrupts Society [Featuring Victoria Robinson]
In a culture that glorifies instant gratification, promotes sexual immorality, and dismisses personal responsibility, crucifying our old nature is more critical than ever. Pastor Allen Jackson sits down with Victoria Robinson, a passionate pro-life advocate, speaker, and author, to expose the devastating impact of the sexual revolution and pro-choice movement in our society. Together, they discuss where the Church has failed on the topic of sex and marriage, emphasizing how men, often dismissed in the abortion debate, are deeply affected and left suffering without support. If the Church continues to compromise on the issues of sex, marriage, and the sanctity of life, what will happen to our nation?

Why Illnesses and Autoimmune Disorders Are Increasing [Featuring Jordan Rubin]
One reason illnesses and immune disorders are out of control in our nation is because our food supply is filled with toxins, pesticides, and preservatives. Author of The Maker's Diet, Jordan Rubin, joins Pastor Allen to bring clarity to this issue and help us find a pathway forward. After developing a severe case of Crohn's disease, Rubin began his journey toward healing.

Faith, Football & the Fight for Freedom [Featuring Joe Kennedy]
In today’s world, where beliefs are often challenged, standing firm in your faith requires courage, resilience, and a deep conviction to do what is right, no matter the cost. Joe Kennedy’s story is an inspiring example of this kind of perseverance. A former high school football coach, Kennedy was placed on administrative leave for praying on the field after games, a practice he started as a personal expression of faith. For nearly a decade, he fought for religious freedom, facing legal battles all the way to the Supreme Court, where the final ruling set a precedent on public expressions of faith.

Surgery In-Utero: This Changes The Conversation [Featuring Dr. William Lile]
People across our nation believe that abortion is a woman’s right, a simple choice—but what if they knew the truth? What if they saw the miracle of life in the womb, where surgeries and blood transfusions are performed on preborn infants, proving their undeniable humanity? The abortion pill is now responsible for at least 64% of all terminations, and women are experiencing adverse effects—even dying—after taking these pills. This is more than a political or medical issue—it is a spiritual battle. Dr. William Lile, a board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist known as "The Pro-Life Doc," joins Pastor Allen in this podcast to discuss how science proves that the unborn are patients deserving of protection. He also shares how you can put your faith into action and step up to defend the most vulnerable.

What Christians Get Wrong About Spiritual Oppression [Featuring Dr. Neil Anderson]
The Bible says, "We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." We have an adversary that seeks to threaten, intimidate, and frighten us. The Church needs to be aware of this ongoing battle with evil, how it manifests in the physical realm, and more importantly, how we can overcome it. Dr. Neil Anderson, author of "The Bondage Breaker" and "The Steps to Freedom in Christ," joins Pastor Allen in this episode to help Christians understand what spiritual oppression looks like and how we can exercise the authority we have in Christ over demonic spirits.

Should the White House Have a 'Faith Office'? [Featuring Dr. Carol Swain]

Trump's Triumph & the Church's Cowardice
Now that President Trump is in the White House, change is coming at a rapid magnitude and speed as his policies upend DEI initiatives, transgenderism, the border crisis, and more. Instead of sitting back and watching the news unfold—or trusting in a politician to solve our problems—it's time for the Church to address the challenges we face in our nation with God's truth. In this episode, Pastor Allen discusses what we can learn from President Trump's first few weeks in office and calls the Church to rise to their assignment of being salt and light in our generation. __ It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.

The ONE Habit That Will Change Your Life [Featuring Dave Embry]
What happens when you begin to read the Bible every day? Pastor Allen sat down with his good friend, Dave Embry, to discuss how daily Bible reading significantly altered his life. While it may seem like reading about the historic wars, battles, and personal conflicts in Scripture has no significance to how we live out our faith today, Embry explains how it increases your understanding of God and His purposes for you. “Jesus says, 'If my words abide in you, then you are my true disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.' What is the opposite of free? Bondage,” Embry explained. “Do we want to be in bondage? That gives me the incentive to want to be in the Word of God. How else can I get His words to abide in me if I'm not in His Word?" Is it possible to know God intimately if we do not know His Word? Does it matter if we read the Bible daily or sporadically? Why is reading the Word of God so important? In this podcast, you’ll discover the answers to these questions and how God brought healing, hope, and transformation to Dave Embry's life through one simple, daily practice: Bible reading.

Lead Rock Singer Boldly Proclaims Jesus’ Love [Featuring Brad Arnold]
Brad Arnold, the lead singer of the rock band 3 Doors Down, went from battling alcoholism to finding hope through rehab, prayer, and the guidance of legendary Country Musician Charlie Daniels. Brad opens up about how his faith began to play a central role in his life, especially during his concerts, where he chooses to boldly proclaim the message of Jesus' love to his audience. "I've always tried to make songs that help people through situations—to help them acknowledge that 'Jesus loves me.' That's the most powerful thing in the world, to know that Jesus loves you. I know that I have a very short window before people start shutting down, and people aren't at a rock show to be preached at, but I want to share that with them." Brad's story is one of grace, redemption, and hope, showing that no matter where you’ve been or what you’ve gone through, there’s always a chance to find joy and healing. __ It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.
