Forge and Anvil

With the rise of paganism taking in root in public schools, many faithful parents are looking for alternatives to educating their kids. On this episode of Forge and Anvil I will be joined by Nick Duncan to discuss classical christian education and why it’s an important option for parents to deeply consider.

Unless you've been living under a rock, you've probably heard by now that there is unrest all across American universities as pro-palestine protestors have taken over multiple campus properties to signify their opposition to Israel. In response to this, house republicans took it upon themselves to pass a new anti-semitism bill in an effort to show solidarity with Israel. However, the bill is a giant assault upon the first amendment and may have made parts of the bible outlawed. On this episode of Forge and Anvil I will be joined by Bryce Eddy to talk about this awful bill as well as how we should handle these college protests.

Over the weekend Politico ran a story condemning the right's "obsession" with having babies confirming once and for all that desiring a family is now officially right wing. Where does this baby making obsession come from? It may have to do with the fact that the US fertility rate hit an all time low of 1.6 children per woman in 2023, well below the 2.1 child per woman replacement rate. Young people are opting out of the American dream and family creation all together. On this episode of Forge and Anvil I will be joined by Terry Schilling of the American Principles Project to discuss whether or not the family unit can be preserved for the next generation of Americans.

With all the chatter surrounding Donald Trump's recent abortion comment, many on the right have been lamenting the fact that we don't have a true abortion abolitionist on the ballot this November. However, today I have the privilege of interviewing Joshua Smith, a self identified abolitionist running in the Libertarian Presidential primary proving that abolitionists do in fact have an option on the ballot. Today I hope to ask Joshua questions about his candidacy and how he would hope to govern on numerous topics. all this and more, so stick around!

This week the right has once again been divided as Donald Trump recently put out a video outlining his stance on abortion. Right after this video, the Arizona supreme court declared that an anti-abortion law from 1864 was in fact constitutional and legitimate. In response to this Trump said that the law went too far and called on the Arizona legislature to fix it. Trump favorite Kari Lake then came out with a video that, in my opinion goes much farther advocating for a woman's right to choose. As a result of all these things, the Christian right is now asking whether or not we can still vote for Trump in good conscience. In this episode of Forge and Anvil I will be joined by Pastor Andrew Isker, AKA BonifaceOption to answer this question and discuss why I think the 2024 election is the End Game.

Few people have opportunities to make real sacrifices for what they believe in, but that is not the case for my guest this episode. Gabe Rench was arrested during the height of lockdowns in blood red Idaho for singing psalms in protest against the draconian lockdowns. All this time later he has been awarded a $300,000 settlement against the city of Moscow and has shown that not every battle is destined to be lost. On this episode of Forge and Anvil I will discuss with Gabe how Christians every where can stand against tyranny and do so without compromising our biblical values. All this and more so stick around.

As many of you are already aware, president Biden recently announced the whitehouse would observe transgender day of visibility on March 31st, which just so happened to be Easter this year. In addition to this insult to Christian’s everywhere, the biden administration has also announced more persecutions, I mean prosecutions, of anti abortion activists under the face act which means more Tennesseeans are facing jail time for praying and singing hymns. On the episode of Forge and Anvil I will be joined by Todd Erzen of the Steve Deace show to discuss the question, will the Catholic Church ever excommunicate Joe Biden? Will Tennessee governor Bill Lee stand in the gap for his citizens? Will accountability ever come?

ohn has extensive experience beating the government at its own games and helping others do the same. His buying club was the first in the nation to be raided by health authorities… and win. He has helped dozens of others across the nation do likewise.

Growing up in the church I had many found memories of my parents reading C.S.Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia out loud to my siblings and I before bed. Later I would go on to discover for myself J.R.R. Tolkiens The Hobbit and eventually The Lord of the Rings. However, I also have memories of my parents banning my brothers and I from reading or watching Harry Potter. I'm sure Ive described the childhood of many of you listeners just now. Fans of the show may have also notice I've condemned the rise of witchcraft and other pagan practices we see in our culture today. So the question needs to be asked, are Christians suffering from cognitive dissonance when it comes to how we handle magic? On this episode of Forge and Anvil I will be joined by author C.R.Wiley to try to answer this very question. All this and more, so stick around.

As many of my viewers are already aware, I've vocalized my concerns over government overreach. I've given examples such as the story of Paul Vaughn, a Tennessean facing 11 years in jail under the FACE act simply from praying at an abortion clinic, and Paul is among others such as Mark Houck from PA who was raided in the early morning at gun point on similar charges. This overreach needs to stop and on this episode of Forge and Anvil we will be discussing what every day citizens might do to push forward state protections agains federal overreach.

When attempting to gain power, inconvenient truths are often ignored by those in charge of crafting the narrative. One such narrative we see today is the idea that the crusades are a dark blotch on the history of Christ's church. These crusades are depicted as being a time when Christians wrongly pillaged non-believing communities and forced individuals to convert or die at the hand of sword. However, myself and many others like me have often wondered what inconvenient truths are being ignored in order to craft this narrative of evil Christians neglecting Christ's teachings and killing innocents? On This episode of Forge and Anvil I will be joined by author Raymond Ibrahim to ask the question: Were the crusades really as bad as we've been told? All this and more.

We live in a day and age where racism is acceptable. Specifically, racism towards white people is acceptable. On today's episode we will talk with Jeremy Carl about his new book: Unprotected class. How Anti-white racism is tearing america apart.

As wild as it seems its not often that representatives are willing to listen to the people they actually represent, but today I am joined by a representative who is willing to do just that. Representative Ryan Williams serves in the 42nd district of Tennessee and happens to represent a large portion of this very audience. Many of you have expressed concerns over some of the recent votes coming out of the Tennessee state house and Representative Williams has graciously agreed to join the show so I can ask him some hard questions about his voting record. All this and more so stick around.

What is the SBC exactly and why is it important to all Americans? Chase Davis Joins the show to discuss all things southern baptist convention.

If you've followed our show for a while you'll know we've hi-lighted the recent trend that shows young men are becoming more conservative. In fact, by some metrics, although slim, Gen Z is more conservative than millennials which is the first time a generation hasn't moved leftward in recent American history. On this episode of Forge and Anvil I am joined by popular content creator George "behizy" as we discuss whether or not young men have what it takes to turn this country around. All this and more.

Super Tuesday Y'all!

They say as the family goes, so goes the nation, and although that saying is true, statistics show us that as the father goes, so goes the family. With this in mind you would think many churches would prioritize strategically targeting and reaching out to men in their communities. However, many men feel completely alienated from church and would rather find their support from the godless manosphere or red pill movement. So why is the church failing men so badly? On this episode of forge and Anvil we will venture to guess.

We live in an age of fast food, endless streaming services, and sedentary jobs. As a result, American men have become physically weak. Observing this fact has lead to many commentators on Christian twitter to push for men of Christ to get back into the gym and regain the discipline that comes from regular strength training. In response to this, another group of commentators has come out in opposition to the first group and is sounding the alarm that desiring to be strong is idolatry. We've talked before on this show about fat pastors and the dangers of lacking disciplines in important areas. On this episode of Forge and Anvil Michael and I will be joined by Professional strongman and strength training guru, Matt Reynolds to discuss why we believe Christian men should aspire to be strong.
