In the span of a month, both traditional and progressive Catholic views took a lead story position in social media and the news, the first from a professional football player's commencement address and the second from the Pope in an interview at the Vatican.

Thinking About the Complexities of the Israel/Hamas Conflict 9:57

8d ago9:57

9:57

Israel/Hamas have been involved in mortal combat since just after the surprise Hamas terrorist attack Oct 7, 2023 upon innocent Israelis across the border from Gaza. It's a tragic experience no matter how it is parsed, but it's been interesting to note how some Christian leaders lean heavily one way or another, which in itself is understandable and…

Two Kinds of People in the World 9:48

15d ago9:48

9:48

There are manifold ways to think about kinds of people in the world, but one way right out of Scripture is to think about "Sinners in Need of Grace" and "Sinners Saved by Grace." Either a person has asked Jesus Christ to forgive their sins and by grace through faith (Eph 2:8-9) become a Christian, i.e., a sinner saved by grace, or they have not and…

Campus Implosion--Anarchy Isn't Pretty 9:51

22d ago9:51

9:51

More than 80 American public universities have experienced not simply pro-Palestinian human rights protests--that's just the excuse--but what has morphed into pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, Jew-hatred, anti-America student (with the help of significant numbers of outside paid agitators) demonstrations. These generously labeled "protests" predictably evolv…

Suppressing the Truth--Romans Chapter 1 Come to Life 9:39

29d ago9:39

9:39

Why has American culture changed so dramatically in the past 25 years? Was there a tipping point that triggered significant cultural change, and if not, what contributed to the shifts in values and behaviors we're now seeing in the streets, on campuses, even in the halls of Congress? In what way does American culture's view of truth, or the lack th…

Does A President's Religion Matter? 9:50

1M ago9:50

9:50

Year 2024 is a presidential election year, so once again Americans are following the statements and antics of leading candidates from the Democrat - in this case the incumbent President Joe Biden - and from the Republican - former president Donald Trump. Christians often want to know more about their favorite candidate's religious persuasion, and t…

Misgendering, Deadnaming, Preferred Pronouns 9:50

1M ago9:50

9:50

MIsgendering, i.e., using a person's given name -- something called Deadnaming -- rather than the name they've chosen to match their perceived gender identity, or not using the person's Preferred Pronouns they say match their gender identity, is now a controversy in the U.S. Christians struggle with this challenge - do they refuse to use a transiti…

2M ago9:17

9:17

"The Chosen" is a multi-season television drama about the life of Jesus Christ and his disciples. For the characters, it offers creatively written backstories not found in the Scripture, but the drama attempts to portray the biblical story of Jesus in a manner faithful to the primary message of the biblical narrative.

Easter Hope 9:50

2M ago9:50

9:50

Easter is the defining celebration of Christianity, focusing upon Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross, death and burial, then resurrection for the salvation of those who put their faith in him. There is no other religious holiday like it. He is risen. He is risen indeed. For more Christian commentary, see my website at rexmrogers.com.…

Revisiting the Difference Between Civil Liberties and Civil Rights 9:36

2M ago9:36

9:36

Civil liberties are the "unalienable rights" of the Declaration of Independence, life, liberty, and in Thomas Jefferson's words, pursuit of happiness. Civil liberties are human or natural rights, our human birthright from God as designated in nature. Civil liberties list what government cannot take away. Civil rights are additional, expanded protec…

Train Up A Child Works For Good And Bad 9:50

2M ago9:50

9:50

Proverbs 22:6, “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it,” is a principle that until recently I thought applied solely to the development of good Christian attitudes and behavior. Then it occurred to me that this principle works whether one is teaching a child worthy or unworthy values and ways of mov…

Satan's Next Frontier 9:06

3M ago9:06

9:06

It seems that each time a moral standard is displaced, the social process refocuses upon another traditional moral standard that the Left argues is somehow a great restriction and oppression upon personal liberty. Gambling, a longtime social evil, fell in the 90s and early 2010s, same-sex marriage was legally embraced in 2015, then transgenderism t…

SAT-7 is a Christian satellite and online broadcaster based in Cyprus and broadcasting 24/7 in Arabic, Farsi, and Turkish throughout the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) - now also reaching into Afghanistan, Tajikistan.

Population decline is now a serious consideration in Western Europe, the US and North America, Japan, China, and several more countries. In fact, the only countries where the population replacement rate is functioning at a needed, typical level, are several Sub-Saharan countries in Africa, Egypt, and a few countries in the Far East. Why is this hap…

Christian Nationalism Is Problematic 9:51

3M ago9:51

9:51

Christian Nationalism has become a kind of grab bag label for several religious or specifically Christian approaches to engagement in US national politics. Some of these approaches are, frankly, unbiblical. While some may not call themselves by this term, yet they believe the USA was founded upon Judeo-Christian values, and that this public moral c…

Climate Change Threats to Freedom 9:39

3M ago9:39

9:39

Climate Change is no longer simply about concern for the environment. Now among climate change alarmists, particularly globalist elites, climate change is a means to an end, a scare tactic to institute government controls, insure the power of leftist socialists, increase the size of government, promote population decline via abortion and other mean…

Harassed and Helpless But Not Hopeless 9:54

9:54

If any word could describe the current condition of American culture it might be confused, so much so that the words of Scripture comes to mind as Jesus looked upon Jerusalem he thought of them as harassed and helpless as sheep without a shepherd. That's what we have today, harassed and helpless people, living in confusion that is a produce to thei…

Digital Identification and the End Times 9:47

4M ago9:47

9:47

Digital Identification is now a commonplace of postmodern life. In many ways, the capacity to store and share information online, including personally identifying information, is helpful, making commerce and communication run more smoothly. But it also makes our most private information, and what we own--our values, interests, activities, bank acco…

Digital Identification in a Brave New World 9:58

Digital Identification, or Digital ID, is an assemblage of online personally identifying information extracted from our digital footprint - all our activity and actions online - or specifically inputted to create our unique ID. It sounds good, and in many applications it is good, reducing paperwork, speeding health records or purchases, etc. But ou…

Aging Biblically 9:30

4M ago9:30

9:30

Age comes to us all, great and small, rich and poor, no matter our demographics. In fact, the only alternative is death. So aging doesn't seem so bad by comparison to most of us. Question is, can one or how does one age biblically? What can we learn from Scripture about what God says about aging. Seems logical to ask because God is the one who made…

Climate Change Now a Culture of Death 9:57

4M ago9:57

9:57

Back in 1995, Pope John Paul II attracted worldwide attention for calling growing support for abortion and euthanasia a “culture of death.” Now we’re told by the President of the United States that climate change “is the challenge of our collective lifetimes. The existential threat to human existence as we know it.” America’s “climate czar” John Ke…

The self-induced, unrecognized - at least by the current Administration - immigration crisis on the US southern border continues to worsen. It's difficult to comprehend, why the Biden Administration is neglecting its constitutional responsibilities, and why opponents don't do more the stop it. This piece is not about preaching bigotry or prejudice.…

The downfall of the Harvard University President Claudine Gay for more than 50 alleged incidents of plagiarism in her scholarly work, including her dissertation, was something that was too long coming, but in a sense, should never have happened at all. Surely the Presidential Search Committee at Harvard is better than to have allowed this candidate…

Christmas to New Year's 9:41

5M ago9:41

9:41

A huge mood swing takes place between Christmas and New Year's, one that involves worldviews and values. Society moves from "Silent Night, Holy Night" and peace on earth to raucous, riotous living, drinking, sensuality, and party-hardy. No one knows what the new year will bring, but we can rely on the providence, presence, promises, and peace of Go…

Isaiah 9:6 announced, “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” This is the real reason for the Christmas season. But peace does not seem to exist in the world Christmas 2023, in part because God knows pe…

Things I Thought I'd Never See in My Lifetime 9:58

Current events always surprise us because we are not omniscient, nor can we see into the future. Then again, there are certain things happening in the US that I thought I'd never see in my lifetime. Some are silly, many are irrational, some are threatening and dangerous to the body politic. Some of these events or developments are unpredictable in …

If There Is No God, Then Everything Is Permitted 9:29

5M ago9:29

9:29

Are we living today what philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre observed, “If there is no God, then everything is permitted”? It certainly seems that way. Since at least the 1960s, what’s been happening, first gradually, now rapidly, is an intentional rejection of Judeo-Christian values of morality and society, followed by a replacement of these traditional …

Which Human Beings Should We Care About? 9:42

6M ago9:42

9:42

Our culture tends to be "binary," except regarding sexuality where indeed God made male and female. But today, American culture seems to think if you are "for" this, you must automatically be "against" that. There is no nuance. The most dominant current ideology, cultural Marxism, which finds its way into "Woke" philosophies, sees the world in term…

Defining Deviancy Down 9:38

American culture has been on a downhill slide for some time. You know that if you are an adult past middle age.

Question is, how long can a civilization maintain if its shared values are shattered, if no stan…

America Needs an Awakening 9:38

Revivals start in churches and in some sense can be planned, but Awakenings, a word at times used interchangeably with revival, is a matter of culture not the church and are providential, not in people's ability to plan. America has experienced awakenings in the past and certainly we believe needs one now - a movement of the Spirit of God calling u…

The Times are changing, and sorry to say, not for the better. Traditional American values, which is to say values based upon a historic Judeo-Christian consensus, have been and are being rapidly jettisoned. Younger Americans are embracing a new culturally Marxist ideology of the Left, fueled by false ideas about God--actually, godlessness--the huma…

9:54

Since the Oct 7 Hamas terrorist attack on unsuspecting Israeli citizens, killing 1400 and taking over 200 hostage, Israel has mounted its military response, first with bombardments, and then on ground incursion, saying it will eradicate Hamas. It would seem right response or moral clarity would be bold and easy to determine, but maybe not because o…

Not the Fog of War but Clarity 9:57

It's been said that truth is the first casualty of war, and that an almost inevitable fog of war obscures reality further. Certainly happens. But extreme duress like war can also yield new clarity as people respond under the crucible of fear or in a greedy grab for power. Since the horrendous act of terror perpetrated by Hamas Oct 6 upon unsuspecti…

American culture is in a period of rapid decline. Hopefully, it is not too late to arrest this decline, to re-establish values that helped make this culture and country strong and flourishing in the first place. But what does the world need now?

That we now live in a post-Christian culture should be evident to everyone who does not live in a box.

Even the idea of truth is…

Leftist ideas and values have gained a foothold, nay more than a foothold, a hammerlock on American culture. These values, contrary to the Judeo-Christian values upon which the country was founded and that allowed it to flourish, are being trampled, rejected, and jettisoned every day in virtually every institution of American culture. This we know,…

Meant For Evil, God Meant For Good--The Cross An International Symbol of Hope 9:45

In ancient Egypt, Joseph told his petrified brothers, "You meant it for evil but God meant it for good." God can do this, and he does it regularly, turning the evil intentions of mankind toward fulfilling his purposes. No better example of this exists than the crucifixion cross, Jesus's instrument of pain, sacrifice, and death that has become an in…

Trading Theology For Therapy 9:50

Much of American religion, including the Christian Church, is trading theology for therapy.

When we think "religion," we often think in terms of an institutional church, a denomination, or one of the world's great religions, i.e., Christianity, Judaism, Islam.

"Confirm thy soul in self-control, thy liberty in law." So says the 1893 poem, "America the Beautiful" by Katharine Lee Bates, later published with music to become one of this country's iconic patriotic hymns.

Unless you are not religious or perhaps have been living under a rock, you'll recognize the sentiments expressed in the title of this podcast.

Most Christian organizations, at least in the recent past, operate with foundational documents, not only bylaws but doctrinal statements, maybe a staff lifestyle statement, and possibly position statements on matters key to their mission.
