Today's culture has twisted reality to such extremes that we now routinely kill the innocent and protect the guilty—in direct violation of Biblical commands. Since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022, abortion hasn’t gone away. Instead, it has morphed in a dangerous way. Find out more in this newest episode of "Truths That Transform."

America has a Constitution that is designed to restrict the government from interfering with our freedoms. But today, government agencies are being weaponized by ideologues to suppress people with biblical and pro-life views. When pro-life pregnancy centers have been targeted with violence and destruction, what has been the response? In this episode of "Truths That Transform," we take a look at justice and agendas under the most pro-abortion administration in history and ask the question, “What does the Bible have to say about the proper role of government?”

We now live in a Wikipedia society, where anyone can change the meaning of a word to satisfy a goal. Today, we’re seeing words being co-opted in order to deceive the uninformed or uneducated, to push a false narrative. LGBTQ activists in particular often label anyone who has a dissenting opinion as a "hater." On this episode of The City of God Podcast, we discuss the redefinition of the world hate, and how many Christians are labeled bigots and haters for simply holding to a Biblical worldview.

Progressive Christianity is an extremely important issue that the Church is facing today. Progressive ideology on abortion, gender, and sexuality are infiltrating many mainstream churches. Many well-known pastors are also going “woke," adhering to changing cultural values rather than Biblical values. Formerly reputable seminaries and Christian universities have gone progressive as well, veering away from their traditional Biblical Christian roots. On this episode of The City of God Podcast, Rob Pacienza, John Rabe, and Lauren Cooley dive into part 2 of their discussion on the Christian left.

Patriotism is under attack today. Standing for the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem is considered problematic by some. Many radical progressives even consider the American flag to be a symbol of hate and saying something as simple as “America first” is being labeled as xenophobic. On this episode of The City of God Podcast, we dive into patriotism, and answer the question: can Christians be patriotic?

In June, the radical left celebrates the LGBTQ+ lifestyle with something known as ‘Pride Month.' Last week, President Joe Biden welcomed hundreds to the White House for a pride celebration. The LGBTQ+ agenda is out to destroy the Judeo-Christian worldview because that is the biggest impediment for the ultimate domination of its worldview. On this episode of The City of God Podcast, Rob and John discuss how pride month comes in direct conflict with a Biblical understanding of sex and gender, and how this movement isn’t about equal rights, but rather forcing everyone to bow the knee and submit to their ideology.

The secular radicalism of the French Revolution was nothing like the appeal to God-given rights in America's Declaration of Independence. Yet the spirit of the bloody French Revolution is on the rise today, notably among elites in our educational and media institutions. We'll take a closer look at how this couldn't be further from the Christian pillars this nation was founded upon, in this episode of "Truths That Transform."

On this episode of Truths That Transform, you’ll get up close and personal with one of our nation's Founding Fathers, Thomas Jefferson. Though Jefferson was not an orthodox Christian, he was also the furthest thing from the raving secularist he’s often portrayed as. Neither Jefferson nor any other founder wanted to banish Christianity from the public square in America. In fact, quite the opposite. They believed that Christianity was essential to the freedom and flourishing of the new republic. Watch the full episode now to find out more.

Check out the newest special from D. James Kennedy Ministries, "Intolerant: The War on Religious Liberty." America only exists as we know it because of devout Christians who came here for religious freedom. And yet that freedom is now under attack as the forces of secularism work to silence Christianity and punish those who live out their faith. Nevertheless, there are also some emerging reasons for hope, and indications that we could be starting to recapture our First Amendment freedoms. We invite you to watch and hear from many who have first-hand stories of how their faith was silenced and the choices they made to stand firm in Biblical truth.

Freedom of speech, religious liberty, discrimination, censorship—all things that seem to be coming to a head right now and so often Christians find themselves at the center of it all. On today’s episode of “Truths That Transform,” we’ll look at what happened to one man who stood firm in his faith, even when it meant sacrificing his career, and how we can stand strong when faced with such opposition ourselves.

In the sinful world we live in, suffering, pain, and loss of freedom are rampant. America has a proud history of freedom—but now there’s an all-out attack on that foundation. On today’s episode of “Truths That Transform,” discover why we need Christians to stand up for God’s truth and refuse to conform.

It is a unique time for Christians living in America today, as the religious landscape is changing at a rapid pace.
