Ep. 596 - Evidence for Creationism Far Outweighs Threadbare Theory of Evolution - Dr. Randy Guliuzza
April 25, 2024 • Tina Griffin
The theory of evolution is rife with assumptions, faulty logic, and outright lies, and yet culture teaches it as absolute truth. Parents must prepare their children to stand against the lies from the scientific establishment. Dr. Randy Guliuzza, the president of the Institute for Creation Research, discusses why the creation versus evolution debate is more than an “academic squabble,” but rather, an essential debate. He points out that creationism is the foundation for every Christian doctrine and discusses some prominent scientific talking points, like explaining how fossils were formed in the Flood of Noah’s day and debunking claims about the genetic similarity between apes and humans! TAKEAWAYS Humans and apes are not as genetically similar as evolutionists claim - ICR has the data to debunk this idea Begin educating your child on the truth about creation in their early developmental years Most kids who grow up in church end up falling away from their faith because they erroneously believe the Bible is scientifically disproven Evolution suppresses the truth of God’s creation and His design and plan for it 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/3rg5kgj ICR Discovery Center video: https://bit.ly/4315q9w ICR Store (get 20% off purchases with code TINA24): https://store.icr.org/ Acts & Facts magazine: https://www.icr.org/subscriptions 🔗 CONNECT WITH ICR Website: https://www.icr.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/icrsciencehttp://www.facebook.com/icrscience Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/icrsciencehttp://www.instagram.com/icrscience X: https://twitter.com/icrscience YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@icrsciencehttp://www.youtube.com/@icrscience Podcast: https://www.icr.org/podcasts Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/icrscience/http://www.pinterest.com/icrscience LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3jijaxj TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@icrscience Patreon: https://bit.ly/444kygj 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY TUVU: (sign up for free 30-day trial): https://www.tuvu.com/free-trial?field-3=counterculturemom Ascent Nutrition: https://goascentnutrition.com/tina Jase Medical (get a discount with code TINA): https://bit.ly/jaseccm 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/counterculturemom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/fpmccmshow 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageccm 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2023 Recap & 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/ccm23impactreport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Ep. 594 - Four-Step Strategy to Secure Your Savings From Coming Economic Collapse - David Stockman
April 23, 2024 • Tina Griffin
The United States is on the brink of an economic collapse, and David Stockman, an equity investor and author, predicts that it will be a “reckoning” that will rock the nation with a meltdown that hasn’t been seen in decades. “The Fed is finally out of dry powder,” he shares, referring to the attempts of the Federal Reserve System to keep things artificially stabilized. David talks about the pros and cons of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, but more importantly, he discusses how Americans can wisely prepare for the coming economic devastation. He recommends doing four major things: pay off your debt, pocket your profits (like stocks), put those profits into securities like cash, and invest in financial insurance, like gold. “I think gold still remains a fundamental asset that everyone should have,” he says. TAKEAWAYS Gold is ultimately the final form of money in this world, even amidst a collapse Find properties that bring you residual income - buy them with as little debt as possible In a potential collapse, people will lose their homes, and there will be a higher demand for rental properties Central bank money is fiat money and it can be manipulated 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE NRB Recap video: https://vimeo.com/917591058 NRB 2025 Conference: https://nrbconvention.org/ Good Ranchers (get $30 off your first box with code TINA): https://www.goodranchers.com/http://www.goodranchers.com The Great Money Bubble book: https://amzn.to/4az9idm 🔗 CONNECT WITH DAVID STOCKMAN Website: https://www.davidstockmanscontracorner.com/http://www.davidstockmanscontracorner.com X: https://twitter.com/da_stockman 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY TUVU: (sign up for free 30-day trial): https://www.tuvu.com/free-trial?field-3=counterculturemom Patriot Mobile (use code TINA for free activation): https://www.patriotmobile.com/ccmom/http://www.patriotmobile.com/ccmom Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/counterculturemom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/fpmccmshow 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageccm 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2023 Recap & 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/ccm23impactreport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/
