Weaponization of the Justice Department with Steve Crampton | Ep. 64
Following the reversal of Roe v. Wade, we have seen a drastic increase in prosecutions of pro-lifers for simply protesting the issue of abortion. Meanwhile, attacks on churches and crisis pregnancy centers continue to rise, with minimal prosecutions. Recently, a Tennessee jury convicted six pro-lifers for protesting outside of an abortion clinic for violating the FACE Act. On this episode of The City of God, we spoke with Steve Crampton, Senior Counsel at Thomas More Society, who is representing one of the clients in this case. The defendants face over a decade in federal prison.

God’s Divine Providence with Dr. Jerry Newcombe | Ep. 55
“Providence” is an old-fashioned word that simply means “God that provides for us.”
The doctrine of Divine providence asserts that God is in complete control of all things. He is sovereign over the universe as a whole. Many of our founding fathers recognized that God’s providential hand was essential for the founding of this nation. Yet, a growing number today claim that America was not founded on Christian principles.
Dr. Jerry Newcombe is a historian and Executive Director of The Providence Forum.

One of those testifying, Harvard president Claudine Gay, also had allegations brought against her on multiple instances of plagiarism throughout her academic career. Dr. Carol M. Swain is a political scientist and legal scholar whose work was plagiarized by Claudine Gay, among other scholars.

The Adversity of Diversity with Dr. Carol Swain | Ep. 42
We often hear in the news about racism, bigotry, and xenophobia running rampant across America, when in reality, racist policies are really coming from those on the radical left. This past summer the Supreme Court struck down Affirmative Action for college admissions, putting an end to racial discrimination in academia. But today, with Diversity Equity and Inclusion programs still all the rage, there seems to be no end to America's race relation issues.
Dr. Carol Swain is a former Princeton and Vanderbilt professor, a speaker and author, whose latest book is titled “The Adversity of Diversity”.
