Al, Jase, and Zach admit that James’ command to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry hits close to home, especially in a family where everyone learns early to speak up or get left out.

The guys contrast Augustine’s confession of sin with today’s culture of self-worship. Al points to history’s e...

Willie and Korie get dragged into a bizarre AI-generated baby hoax, and Al, Zach, and Jase dig into the creepy new world of artificial intelligence, from fake relationships and AI “friends” to people using chatbots to justify sin.

Al, Jase, and Zach call out the entitlement mindset that turns gifts into demands, and Zach traces how a me-first mindset can make comfort and success feel empty.

Miss Kay’s memory issues are changing how her family spends time with her, but they definitely haven’t stolen her joy.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian connect ancient Rome’s paganism to modern America’s idols, from power and politics to screens and the new “religions” people build around personal freedom. Through Rome’s ruins, modern America’s chaos, and the steady faith of the early church, the guys point back to the kingdom of God as ...

Plus, Zach shares how Jill “dashered” a luxury resort in record time, and Jase defends his deeply questionable h...

Rome’s decline sounds uncomfortably familiar as Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian compare the empire’s political chaos, devalued currency, and hunger for centralized power to warning signs in America today. The guys discuss why Christianity has always threatened governments that want ultimate control, since believers answer to God before the state.

Uncle Si enters his renaissance era with new teeth, new eyes, and a perfectly timed drop-in for a deep dive into the book of James.

Jase and Al reflect on the tender side of Phil that many people never saw, especially his patience and compassion for sinners who were trying to come back to God.

The guys connect those stories to everyday tests of integrity, including Jase’s $100 tip with one condition attached, and to a vacation baptism that reminded him God is often wor...
