Abortion has been at the center of our national debate for decades now. But there’s been a lot of confused thinking surrounding it. On this week's "Truths That Transform" program, you’ll discover what the Bible has to say about abortion and the value of human life. And we look at next steps for the pro-life movement in a post-Dobbs world. #ProLife #StandforLife #DobbsDecision #EveryLifeMatters #BibleAndAbortion #BiblicalPerspective #CoralRidgeMinistries #DJKM #TruthsThatTransform

Why am I here? What is God's call in my life? These are some of the existential questions that humans face. Understanding God’s call helps us develop a purposeful, intentional life of faith. On today’s episode of The City of God, we discuss finding purpose with Os Guinness, author of the classic book, “The Call: Finding and Fulfilling the Central Purpose of Your Life.” Os is a renowned speaker, author, and social critic; a descendent of Author Guinness, the famous Dublin brewer. Os speaks eloquently to some of today’s biggest cultural issues, and how knowing our call from God helps us to engage the culture around us.

On this week's "Truths That Transform," discover the case for life as a medical expert investigates the humanity of the preborn. And Dr. Pacienza provides practical guidance for what Christians can and must do to defend vulnerable human life in this culture of death.

James Kennedy, which examines how the birth of Jesus was really the birth that changed civilization forever. If Jesus hadn’t been born, what would the world look like today?

During a congressional hearing last week, presidents from Harvard, MIT and the University of Pennsylvania came under fire for their testimony regarding the rise of anti-Semitism on college campuses. The three women remained evasive and dismissive when asked if calls for the genocide of Jews violated their universities policies on bullying and harassment. 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. On this episode of The City of God, Dr. Swain calls out the Harvard president for plagiarizing her work, as well as denounces the practices of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Dr. Carol Swain’s latest book is called “The Adversity of Diversity” The City of God Podcast is produced by Coral Ridge Ministries Media https://www.djameskennedy.org/ Made in partnership with the Institute for Faith and Culture https://crpc.org/institute/ Subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-city-of-god/id1666445363 Follow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/cityofgodpodcast/ Visit our website http://cityofgodpodcast.com/ #CityofGod #CRPC #DJKM #RobPacienza

We see a lot of mixed messages these days about what Christmas is really about. But you may be surprised to discover that some popular Christmas songs and movies get it at least partially right. It’s about going home. Find out what that means as Dr. Rob Pacienza preaches from the book of Isaiah, which foretells the coming Messiah some 700 years before he was born in this new episode of "Truths That Transform." And we'll share a preview from the impactful documentary, "What If the Bible had Never Been Written?" #HomeForChristmas #ChristmasEssence #IsaiahsProphecy #TrueMeaningOfChristmas #HomecomingJourney #MessiahRevealed #TruthsThatTransform #DJKM

As we enter this Christmas season and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, we Christians should also take the time to celebrate the Word of God through which we encounter our Savior. Join us for a look behind the scenes of the brand-new documentary coming soon, "What If the Bible Had Never Been Written?," based on the book by Dr. D. James Kennedy and Dr. Jerry Newcombe. In this episode of "Truths That Transform," we consider the evidence that demonstrates that the scriptures are indeed the very Word of God. #ChristmasCelebration #WordofGod #BibleTruths #FaithInAction #ChristiansUnite #ChristmasSeason #DocumentaryPreview #ScriptureEvidence #BibleImpact #ReasonsToBelieve #BibleInfluence #Christianity #CelebrateFaith #TruthsThatTransform #DJKM

To hear skeptics tell it today, America was conceived as a purely secular experiment. Nothing could be further from the truth. That idea is refuted by all the history that surrounds our Thanksgiving holiday. In this newest episode of "Truths That Transform," we’re sharing a preview from the brand-new documentary program, What If the Bible Had Never Been Written. Our ministry's founder, Dr. D. James Kennedy, speaks from the National Monument to the Forefathers in Plymouth, Massachusetts, where America began. Contrary to the skeptics' rhetoric, we owe the entire existence of America—and its freedoms—largely to those who were guided by the Bible.

Is the foundation of this nation rooted in Christian values? The United States Constitution secures principles such as ordered liberty, justice within the legal system, and freedom of conscience. Nevertheless, these core principles face potential threats. Present-day attempts to alter the course of America involve rewriting its historical narrative in order to eliminate its Christian origins. "Christian Nationalism" is often used as a pejorative term by the political left to dissuade Christians from participating in culture and politics. But what transpires when devout Christians genuinely apply biblical teachings to governance, education, and every aspect of life? We will examine individuals who did exactly that in this newest episode of "Truths That Transform." #FoundingPrinciples #ChristianHeritage #Constitution #ReligiousFreedom #AmericanValues #ChristianNationalism #FaithInGovernment #USHistory #CulturalInfluence #BiblicalPrinciples #NationalIdentity #HeritageandFaith #ReligiousInfluence #FreedomOfConscience #USFounding #ChristianInfluence #ReligionInAmerica #HistoryRevisited #FaithfulCitizenship #TruthsThatTransform #DJKM

There are many cultural lies permeating our society today. From gender identity to America’s Christian heritage, many Christians are hard pressed to find Biblical truth in American society.

Alex McFarland is the Co-Host of Exploring the World on American Family Radio. He is a pastor, evangelist, and author, who is a great voice in the Christian space today.

George Washington famously said in his Farewell Address that religion and morality are “indispensable supports to our political prosperity.” But when Christians try to get more involved in political and cultural spheres, they are often told to cease and desist—even by fellow Christians. Recently, some have attempted to silence Christians by calling their views “Christian Nationalism.” It’s a term that’s popping up a lot lately, and usually to scare people. So what’s it all about? We'll dive deeper in this new episode of "Truths That Transform." #ReligionAndPolitics #ChristianEngagement #MoralityMatters #ChristianNationalismDebate #FaithInAmerica #PoliticalProsperity #FaithCommunity #CulturalEngagement #TruthsThatTransform #DJKM

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.

There has been a lot of talk recently about "Christian Nationalism." The Left paints this movement as a dangerous threat to the nation and insist that Christians shouldn't engage the culture, and that it's bad for everyone if they do. But is that really true? We'll investigate this question in this episode of "Truths That Transform," along with a discussion on the Israel-Hamas war. #ChristianNationalism #FaithAndPolitics #ReligionInSociety #CulturalEngagement #NationalismDiscussion #ReligiousIdentity #PoliticalReligion #FaithInAmerica #ControversialIssues #ReligionAndSociety #CivicEngagement #ChristianBeliefs #NationalismDebate #TruthsThatTransform #DJKM

Studies show the majority of self-professing Christians don’t hold to a Biblical worldview. Biblical Christianity has been watered down and pastors have embraced relevance over the revelation of scripture. Meanwhile, the world around us has been flipped upside down. What is the solution to the chaos we see all around us? Virgil Walker is a speaker, author, and popular podcaster. He is the Executive Director of G3 Ministries and the co-host of the “Just Thinking Podcast."

One of the things that’s easy to find in the Bible is God’s anger towards those who purposely oppress, assault, and exploit the vulnerable. And yet today, our world faces an epidemic of human trafficking, in which vulnerable people—often young women and children—are lured into virtual slavery. On this episode of "Truths That Transform," you’ll discover how churches can engage in the vital work of helping victims of this crime. #EndHumanTrafficking #TraffickingSurvivor #HumanRights #ModernSlavery #HumanTraffickingAwareness #FightForFreedom #HumanTraffickingPrevention #EndExploitation #RescueAndRestore #TraffickingEducation #SupportSurvivors #AwarenessMatters #BreakTheSilence #TruthsThatTransform #DJKM

Prominent members of the evangelical Church have been affirming progressive ideologies in recent times, and many evangelicals are either blind to what’s taking place or unwilling to call out what they see happening in the Church today. Pastor Lucas Miles has written a great book on this phenomenon called Woke Jesus: The False Messiah Destroying Christianity. Pastor Lucas Miles is a well-known speaker and author, and he is the founder of The American Pastor Project.
