Summary
God's eternal plan of redemption is going off without a hitch. God is sovereign over all things, and he is actively working all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose. That's what we read in Romans 8:28.

00:00:00.000
Frida Baby is under fire for seemingly sexualizing kids in their product packaging.
00:00:06.680
Also, chips are continuing to fall post Epstein Files release.
00:00:12.300
We've got more people resigning over their involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.
00:00:21.360
There is a commonality in all of these stories today that we will be exploring.
00:00:26.120
We've got all of this and much more on today's episode of Relatable.
00:00:42.000
Hope everyone had a wonderful, peaceful, restful weekend.
00:00:51.380
God's eternal plan of redemption is going off without a hitch.
00:00:54.260
I'm so glad that it's still true today every second of every day that nothing is surprising
00:01:04.280
He's never surprised because nothing happens arbitrarily or accidentally.
00:01:08.660
There are no maverick molecules in all of creation, not in your life, not in the entirety
00:01:13.540
of history, and not in the entirety of the universe.
00:01:19.100
And he is actively working all things together for the good of those who love him, who are
00:01:28.880
And what good news that is when even our circumstances seem murky or maybe they seem downright tragic
00:01:34.860
and we don't know how we are ever going to get pulled out of this pit of anxiety or the
00:01:40.560
paralysis of depression, that heavy burden, whatever it is you're carrying or someone
00:01:48.400
I'm not here to give you a health and wealth gospel that says you're about to turn a corner.
00:01:53.540
I just feel like something's about to shift for you.
00:01:58.700
All I have is the promise that is in God's word, that one day he's coming back, that one
00:02:03.440
day we're going to be set free from everything that binds us, that one day we're not going
00:02:08.480
One day there's not going to be the effect of sin, so there's not going to be any sorrow.
00:02:19.300
There won't be a need for courage or sacrifice.
00:02:22.580
We will live in perfect peace forever and ever.
00:02:25.800
There will be no more little kids getting sick.
00:02:31.260
There will be no more of these chaotic news stories that we have to talk about and try
00:02:40.380
And if you ever look at the state of the world or even the state of your own life and you're
00:02:48.160
Like how would a good God, who I'm told is a good father, why would he let any of this happen?
00:02:53.100
The thing that I take comfort in, because I have those thoughts too, we all have those
00:02:59.080
We look at our kids and I'm like, if I had the power to stop that bad thing from happening
00:03:04.640
God has the power to stop this bad thing happening in the world, yet he doesn't.
00:03:08.440
So how do I square that with the reality that God is love and that he is just and good?
00:03:13.480
Well, I square that by remembering that his eternal plan of redemption is ongoing.
00:03:21.500
It never hits a bump in the road, that he is promising that he is going to come back
00:03:27.360
and that he's not just going to gloss over injustice, but he's actually going to avenge
00:03:33.920
He is actually going to pay back the evildoers and he's going to defeat Satan and defeat
00:03:43.740
He knows and he alone knows the day and the hour when Jesus is going to come back, not as
00:03:48.780
a humble baby in a manger, but as a warrior with a sword coming out of his mouth, riding
00:03:53.720
on a horse with a tattoo on his thigh, a very different picture of our Messiah when he comes
0.58
00:04:01.340
And that's what we can take joy in, even when things are really hard.
00:04:06.420
And that is why you've heard me say this a lot, that Christians must have this winning
00:04:13.740
We live in an age of chaos and confusion and cowardice.
00:04:17.940
You've even got Christians who will feed you confusion and they'll call it just nuance or
1.00
00:04:29.280
They will encourage you to be cowardly, to be quiet, and they'll call that peacemaking.
00:04:33.900
Well, Jesus came to not bring peace primarily, but a sword.
00:04:42.040
As Christians, we're not purposely trying to be divisive, but the gospel is divisive.
00:04:47.600
The reality of right and wrong, sin and goodness, those messages are divisive.
00:04:53.500
So I just want to encourage you when you are feeling all the pressure of the world to swim
00:04:59.700
downstream and to go along, to get along, what Christ has called us to, especially in this
00:05:07.360
I don't always know what that looks like for you and your life.
00:05:11.300
It doesn't necessarily always mean this big public display of bravery, although it might,
00:05:18.740
You simply have to do, I simply have to do the next right thing in faith with excellence
00:05:30.460
Sometimes it's something more public and a little bit bigger than that.
00:05:34.940
Sometimes it's standing up to your PTA, the administration at your school, your city
00:05:40.400
council, your boss, people in authority, and saying, that is wrong.
00:05:49.680
But let me tell you, I know from experience that courage is contagious.
00:05:53.680
And if we have courageous pastors and courageous moms and courageous dads willing to actually
00:05:59.160
be a light by speaking the hard truth and love in every sphere that you occupy, that is
00:06:05.640
That's how we've changed culture for 2000 years.
00:06:08.000
So as we talk about yet again, darkness that is happening in this world and how Satan is
00:06:13.200
weaving himself through all of this and disguising himself as an angel of light.
00:06:17.000
And as we see yet again, that children are the unconsenting subjects of these progressive
00:06:21.500
social experiments, that children have a target on their back, not only by the powers that be,
00:06:27.200
but also Satan himself and has since the beginning.
00:06:31.040
We also have to remember that Christians have been carrying this baton for 2000 years of protecting
0.57
00:06:36.820
the most vulnerable by doing and saying the difficult, the unpopular thing, but the true
00:06:45.500
Before we get into some of those stories, I just want to take a little bit of an administrative
00:06:52.340
If you want to be equipped with courage, if you want to be equipped with clarity, that
00:07:00.640
If you don't know what I mean by sharing the arrows, this is a theme that we've had on the
00:07:06.940
When a Christian is getting canceled, condemned, criticized, lambasted for their faith, maybe
00:07:16.760
Maybe people are trying to push them out into the darkness, out into the margins of society.
00:07:22.720
They're getting unfairly punished in some way for standing for what is good, right, and
00:07:27.920
Rather than us as Christians, rather than us saying, oh, I'm so glad that's not me.
0.95
00:07:34.820
I'm just going to kind of hide over here in my corner until the mob runs by and maybe they
00:07:42.300
Instead of being cowards who are ashamed of Christ and ashamed of the gospel, we stand up
00:07:49.260
And whatever arrows you're throwing her way, you can throw my way too, because guess what?
00:07:57.780
Yeah, it's unpopular to say that marriage is between a man and a woman.
00:08:03.100
People are going to get really angry if I talk about the value of embryos and the ethical
00:08:11.860
People are going to get angry when I say that abortion is murder.
00:08:14.920
People are going to get mad when I say there's only two genders.
1.00
00:08:17.460
People are going to be outraged when I say that Jesus is the only way to heaven.
00:08:23.960
But if you're going to be mad at things that are biblically true, send your anger my way
00:08:32.840
So this conference is about equipping you to be a bold Christian in every sphere that
00:08:38.160
you occupy, stay-at-home mom, or if you're an employee, if you're a boss, if you are a single
00:08:46.260
woman, married woman, grandmother, and to be an effective witness.
00:09:03.660
Unlike most women's conferences, this is not about self-love and our emotions and making
00:09:07.200
us feel better and just telling people that we're beautiful.
00:09:14.360
This is about bringing the Word of God with you wherever you go and being encouraged and
00:09:19.940
It's really an incredible, Holy Spirit-filled day.
00:09:22.600
This is year three, October 10th, Dallas, Texas.
00:09:28.760
Make sure that you bring your friends, your small group.
00:09:31.260
It's just a women's conference, no men allowed, except for, just a spoiler, there will be some
1.00
00:09:42.220
But in attendance, it is a Christian women's conference.
00:09:45.140
I can't wait to see you there, sharethearrows.com.
00:09:47.520
If you love this podcast, please leave us a five-star review wherever you watch or listen.
00:09:55.900
So if you think this is truth that needs to be shared, please leave us a positive review
00:10:02.140
Maybe you're watching this, you think you subscribe, but make sure that you subscribe and like this
00:10:08.680
All right, let's get into some of the craziness of the day.
00:10:14.840
One of the best ways that we can support Christians is making sure that we are supporting their companies
00:10:21.560
So many times, secular companies, especially these big, wealthy companies, they donate a
00:10:28.440
portion of your dollars to Planned Parenthood, to Democrat politicians, to pro-trans causes.
00:10:33.600
And if you want to make sure that your dollars are going toward a company that supports our
00:10:37.480
values, unapologetically pro-life, unabashedly Christian, then you need to get your cosmetics
0.66
00:10:42.620
and your skincare from Adele Natural Cosmetics.
00:10:51.160
They hand make all of their products here in America.
00:10:56.500
No synthetic fragrances, no synthetic fake endocrine disrupting ingredients that you have
00:11:04.240
I use their oil-based essential cleanser every day.
00:11:07.560
As far as their makeup, their moisturizing foundation is incredible.
00:11:10.900
They'll also give you a complimentary color matching service.
00:11:13.580
You're not guessing the shades and you can get the one that looks best on you.
00:11:20.880
Use code ALLY for 25% off your first time purchase.
00:11:32.980
Unfortunately, it has been about zero days since we have had to talk about yet another tragedy
00:11:41.680
They have been murdered because of a man who believes that he is a woman being enraged at
00:11:48.760
his wife, being enraged at children, and reportedly taking out this anger on them through murder.
00:11:58.740
So there is a transgender Rhode Island shooter who walked into a hockey game and allegedly
00:12:07.060
shot his wife, his ex-wife, and his son, killed them, injured at least three others before turning the gun
00:12:20.360
So let me give you just a little bit of information and then we'll analyze why this is happening over and over again.
00:12:26.680
So police described the shooting as a targeted incident that was stemming from a family dispute.
00:12:32.200
Of course, police are almost always very politically correct in these situations.
00:12:36.740
According to one of his adult daughters, Amanda Wallace Hubbard, he battled serious personal demons,
00:12:42.700
exhibited toxic behavior throughout his adult life.
00:12:45.760
We'll put up some pictures of what he looked like as well.
00:12:48.620
Court documents reveal longstanding family conflicts tied to the suspect's so-called gender transition.
00:12:54.820
The reason we say so-called is because it's not actually possible to transition your gender or your sex.
00:13:02.240
This includes the suspect's wife's divorce filing that originally cited, quote,
00:13:07.800
gender reassignment surgery, narcissistic and personality disorder traits as a reason for the split.
00:13:14.500
Before that, language was actually crossed out.
00:13:16.840
So it ended up being crossed out of court documents and later amended to irreconcilable differences.
00:13:26.120
Based on these court documents, this poor woman was married to this man.
0.89
00:13:32.400
I believe I read that they have six children together, grown children at this point,
00:13:36.700
and that he decided that he wanted to transition so-called into a woman.
00:13:42.460
We don't know all the details of that and exactly how that went down.
00:13:46.060
But I can just imagine, we've heard the testimony of other women in a similar situation, how heartbreaking that is.
00:13:53.080
Even you hear from Kris Kardashian, and this was on reality TV, when she was just begging Bruce,
00:14:00.620
like, please take a trinket or something from all of our life together.
00:14:06.480
She's like smelling his shirts because she misses her husband.
00:14:12.820
And when you have someone who is so narcissistic and has fed into this extremely dark fetish,
00:14:18.560
because that's what it is, a man enjoying having breasts and wearing women's clothing,
00:14:29.060
That is, I think, a form of devastation that is almost worse than death.
00:14:34.300
Because if you lost your husband, at least, you know, you lost your husband.
00:14:40.740
Like, he died as your husband, this man who loved you.
00:14:49.620
It's forcing you to pretend something that you don't want to pretend.
00:14:53.000
And there's also, I can't even imagine the psychological trauma that goes along with that.
00:14:57.420
Like, this person that you, like, that you conceive children with is now has, like, fake breasts and looks so grotesque.
00:15:08.100
If we look at this person who went by the name of Roberta, surprise, surprise, his name was Robert previously,
00:15:16.120
we see a lot of confusion and just a lot of strange things.
00:15:21.660
He, he, my cis wife has flames shooting from her ears when I outdo her.
0.99
00:15:27.500
And I just want to note, this is something that is extremely common among these men who have this sexual gender fetish,
00:15:35.580
is that there is an envy towards women in their life.
0.58
00:15:38.640
They actually try to mimic the clothing, the style, the look of their wives.
1.00
00:15:43.580
There's a lot of gender envy, covetousness going on there.
1.00
00:15:48.900
And again, in the vast majority of cases, I believe this comes from an addiction to porn that gets darker and darker.
00:15:58.080
We've talked about it with a researcher on this show that really promotes this kind of behavior and this kind of living out fetish.
00:16:05.920
And let me just tell you, humiliation of actual women and girls is a part of that fetish.
0.84
00:16:12.040
Okay, that's not just like an unfortunate consequence of this that people like him wanted to avoid.
00:16:24.000
So just understand that when I hear people with this kind of like faux compassion for transgenderism that,
00:16:32.200
I can't imagine what it's like to feel like you're born in the wrong body.
00:16:35.400
That constitutes probably less than 1% of men or boys who try to identify as the opposite sex.
00:16:44.040
I mean, the DSM-5 said it was somewhere like 1% of males actually struggled with that persistent feeling from a young age that they were really supposed to be a girl.
00:16:57.360
But still, the answer to that even is not to affirm that that boy is actually a girl.
00:17:03.020
What's even more cruel is affirming someone who through pornography has been convinced that they are actually a woman and saying,
00:17:11.040
yeah, this dude, you see the pictures, you saw the pictures of this person, should be able to share a bathroom with a little girl.
00:17:21.000
Now, as you could tell from the images, this person also on testosterone in addition to the synthetic estrogen.
00:17:29.260
In fact, he says, all my roid rages came from testosterone, not my estrogen, oddly enough.
00:17:34.900
There's no way, actually, for you to know that.
00:17:38.460
I mean, men aren't supposed to be pumped with estrogen.
00:17:40.880
There's a reason why we have the certain amount of hormones that we have.
00:17:44.680
Women are supposed to have a certain amount of estrogen and progesterone and testosterone.
0.99
00:17:48.680
Men are supposed to have their levels of testosterone and hormones that are right for their body.
0.87
00:17:55.860
Of course, when we mess that up, that's going to have psychological and physical negative effects.
00:17:59.660
And then Roberta says, anyway, when I'm misgendered, I politely whisper through clenched teeth,
00:18:04.820
honey, don't make me break a nail knocking your teeth out.
0.96
00:18:12.060
Me and the gals, like whenever someone comes up to us and says something we don't like,
00:18:17.060
we're like, man, I'm going to break a nail knocking your teeth out.
0.85
00:18:23.640
Also, Roberta says, I could build a wall with the skulls of everyone who calls me sir.
00:18:28.120
And I, again, like this is so incredibly common, this kind of talking.
00:18:34.460
Like, do you remember, was it the Lieutenant Governor of Michigan?
00:18:44.620
And remember, she had this picture where she was opening up her blazer and her t-shirt said,
00:18:55.600
So that's if you don't affirm that Jack has just become Sally at 12 years old, we will kill you.
00:19:03.140
We see this kind of violent rhetoric a lot from these transgender activists.
1.00
00:19:11.160
I'm hyper-conservative, hyper-Christian, and hyper-gender dysphoric trans woman.
00:19:16.340
Anyone can take a particular sentence from the Bible and condemn another to death justifiably.
00:19:26.480
Jesus says, if you love me, you'll keep my commandments.
00:19:31.500
All of us can struggle with a variety of things and sin in a variety of different ways and still be Christians because we won't be perfect until glory.
00:19:38.840
But this unrepentant sin that ended up leading to murder, that shows an unregenerate heart.
00:19:45.260
And a struggle doesn't mean that you do something that you want to do.
00:19:50.000
Like a struggle would mean that you are not doing that thing, even though it's difficult.
00:19:56.520
My wife says she hates the person who stole her husband.
0.80
00:20:03.280
I think it's extremely important to take special care of those who stand by us, listen and understand what they're going through for our sake.
00:20:13.080
One thing that he said that I thought was disturbing,
00:20:15.380
keep bashing us, but do not wonder why we go berserk.
00:20:18.520
So this is also very common among transgender activists to say that, you know, you, people like me, people like Charlie Kirk,
00:20:35.140
No, the reason why you go crazy is because you're a man who thinks that you're a woman or you're a woman who thinks that you're a man.
00:20:42.800
And insane people do other insane and very often violent things.
00:20:46.620
Not all people who identify as trans are going to be violent,
00:20:49.400
but I think they're much more likely to be violent because you're inherently mentally unstable.
00:20:53.880
Now, this next story that we have to talk about has another component in it.
00:20:57.340
And it actually is a common component with the first, but this is about a child, a minor in Canada,
00:21:05.680
And the impact of fatherlessness so clearly on this boy is obvious here.
00:21:10.880
And so we've got a father who was stolen by transgender ideology.
0.99
00:21:14.260
We have a father who was absent, which his absence helped induce transgender ideology.
1.00
00:21:19.460
And this boy that we'll talk about next, and it goes to show so much, like how good God is in creating the two genders,
00:21:26.400
creating mom and dad, creating male and female, and why we as Christians are called to say God knows better.
00:21:34.540
And therefore, we have to be clear about it if we want to save these people's lives.
00:21:37.480
Let me pause and tell you about the next sponsor for the day.
00:21:49.500
They are a Christian mom and dad of five kids, and they are just trying to glorify God in everything they do.
00:21:55.600
They started this supplement company because they felt called to do so, but really they saw a need.
00:22:00.900
They saw a need for supplements that come with the most bioavailable ingredients.
00:22:05.880
We take a lot of different things to make ourselves feel better, but sometimes we don't really know if it's making a difference.
00:22:12.580
We look at the ingredients and we realize, okay, this is not the form of, for example, folic acid that I need.
00:22:18.720
I actually need folate so that my body can digest it and can use it in the way that it needs.
00:22:24.120
And that's why they care so much about every ingredient.
00:22:27.840
They care about the message and the values behind each product.
00:22:30.940
I use their probiotics, their iron, their prenatals, their omega-3s, their magnesium, all of it.
00:22:36.360
It's been a game changer for my hair, skin, and nails.
00:22:48.800
You'll get 20% off your order when you do that.
00:22:53.880
So just six days before the Rhode Island shooting that we were just discussing, there was another
00:23:06.180
So this so-called transgender, again, I say so-called because there's no such thing as
00:23:11.440
transgender, got men in a dress, a boy, dressed as a girl.
0.97
00:23:16.520
He reportedly killed his mother, an 11-year-old stepbrother.
00:23:19.940
At home in Tumblr Ridge, again, there's always this envy and anger towards wives, towards
00:23:25.220
mothers, towards sisters before heading to Tumblr Ridge Secondary School.
00:23:29.320
And there he allegedly injured 25 people, killed six more, five students, age 12 to 13, one
00:23:36.840
Then he also died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
00:23:40.260
I know that there's one young woman, one girl, I don't remember her name, but she is
00:23:44.520
in the hospital still in critical condition fighting for her life after she was shot by this
00:23:53.660
And this is so important to show that even in something like this, we are still pushing
00:23:58.020
this madness, which just continues the vicious cycle.
00:24:01.140
ABC News says, breaking, the person who carried out a school massacre is an 18-year-old woman
00:24:06.440
with mental health issues, but she did not give a motive for one of the worst mass shootings
00:24:15.900
It is a boy who we know from his history has posted on social media about being a girl,
00:24:24.880
Some also very disturbing, like maniacal laughing videos.
00:24:29.040
So something very deeply spiritual going on here.
00:24:32.140
And I know I said something earlier about this being insanity.
00:24:36.180
And that is true, but sometimes mental health issues or insanity can kind of be used as an
00:24:42.440
And I just want to make really clear that insanity is not an excuse for evil.
00:24:47.280
That, yes, you probably have a level of mental instability going on here in a lot of these
00:24:56.880
These people probably weren't born with mental health issues.
00:24:59.740
They might not even have like a real diagnosis.
00:25:03.360
It's probably blossomed into something like schizophrenia, multiple personality disorder,
00:25:15.160
It started with looking at things they shouldn't have looked at.
00:25:17.740
It started with thinking thoughts that they shouldn't have been thinking.
00:25:23.320
All of us could be vulnerable to that, by the way, because we're all fallen people.
00:25:32.620
But it shouldn't be an excuse, I don't think, in a court of law.
00:25:36.320
And it certainly shouldn't be an excuse as we're thinking about right and wrong.
00:25:41.780
So the biological father, this is a point that I think we need to note.
00:25:45.260
The biological father of this Canadian shooter, his name is Justin Van Rootza.
00:25:51.280
He publicly released a statement to express his deep sorrow and to clarify his complete
00:25:57.240
So the New York Post says, transgender Canadian school shooter, we're trying not to say the
0.99
00:26:01.740
shooter's name, the father distances himself from killer son.
00:26:08.960
In the statement, he emphasized that he had no involvement in his kid's life or the upbringing.
00:26:13.940
Apparently, he says the mother had refused his participation from the start.
00:26:18.400
We don't know if that's true, if it was really the mother's fault or not.
00:26:24.220
This father referred to his child using the surname Strange, Strang.
00:26:30.900
From the mother's side, consistently used pronouns aligning with his son's biological sex
00:26:37.860
And the dad, Justin, stressed that his son never adopted or used his own family name.
00:26:43.320
Anyway, what he's trying to do is to distance himself from his son.
00:26:49.320
What he's trying to say is, this is not my fault.
00:26:55.240
But actually, it was his absence, I believe, that contributed to this.
00:27:00.000
It was his absence that created probably this kind of instability.
00:27:05.100
Like, kids need more involvement from both parents, not less.
00:27:10.340
He clearly didn't have this strong male role model that he needed in his life.
00:27:15.040
And I'm not saying that is always the antidote.
00:27:17.620
That's not always the thing that is going to prevent a guy, a young man, from going down
00:27:26.240
It certainly doesn't help when you don't have a father in the home.
00:27:29.240
There are a few things that we know about fatherlessness.
00:27:33.680
An analysis of 56 school shootings by Dr. Peter Langman, psychologist and leading researcher
00:27:38.980
on the psychology of school shooters, found that only 18% of the shooters were raised in
00:27:44.980
a stable home with both biological parents, while 82% grew up in unstable family environments
00:27:54.740
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 80% of single-family parents in the United States
00:27:59.820
are headed by mothers, meaning the biological father is not present in the household.
00:28:05.320
Children in single-parent homes are at higher risk for low self-esteem, depression, anxiety,
00:28:14.660
63% of youth suicides occur among individuals from fatherless homes.
00:28:19.380
85% of children who display behavioral disorders come from homes without a father.
00:28:26.160
66% of 75 juvenile delinquents that were studied in a study had experienced fatherlessness.
00:28:34.480
20% had never lived with their biological father.
00:28:40.800
There is so much research on this from so many different perspectives, not just Christian
00:28:45.380
perspectives, children need psychologically, physiologically, you need both your mom and
00:28:53.080
The ideal situation for every child is a married biological mom and dad.
0.79
00:29:00.720
We live in a fallen world, so sometimes things are sub-ideal and that's not great.
00:29:06.460
The next best is for them to live with a married mom and dad who maybe are adoptive and aren't
1.00
00:29:15.600
actually their biological parents, but that's the next best option.
00:29:19.740
The most dangerous person in a child's life is actually the unrelated male who lives with
1.00
00:29:28.340
Fatherlessness and motherlessness have a severe effect on parents.
00:29:32.220
I'm not just talking about this in relation to divorce, by the way, and deadbeat dads.
00:29:37.660
I am talking about this also in relation to the redefinition of marriage as two men or
00:29:42.680
We are forcing fatherlessness and motherlessness and confusion on kids and saying, figure it
00:29:53.080
Yes, we've got two dads who made mistakes that could have at least contributed to the loss
00:30:00.380
This dad in this case in Canada, I don't know all of the details.
00:30:03.900
Maybe he really did try to be involved in his child's life.
00:30:06.480
So I'm not putting the responsibility for these murders on his shoulders.
00:30:12.880
It's just the reality that his absence and fatherlessness in the son's life led to a lack
00:30:18.500
of stability that probably led to what happened.
00:30:21.540
And the derelict dad in the first story that we talked about, his lack of personal responsibility
00:30:27.960
certainly led to the choices that he made, which contributed to this tragic loss of life.
00:30:34.180
And in both cases, what we see is this principle that we have watched over and over again that
00:30:38.960
we've talked about so much is that children are always the primary unconsenting subjects
00:30:44.180
of progressive social experiments over and over again, because children can't really consent.
00:30:53.340
They don't have political capital that can be leveraged.
00:30:56.440
They don't have any money capital that they can pay their way out of these situations.
00:31:01.460
They don't even have the mental capacity to be able to defend themselves.
00:31:05.680
They don't even have the legal rights as young children to say, I don't like this.
00:31:12.440
They don't have the tools necessary to be able to fight back against really confusing
00:31:18.360
ideology, to fight back against some of the things that they see online, the messages that
00:31:24.720
are told to them in public schools, in some of these games and apps and pornography and
00:31:36.180
Like we are the, we are the safeguard for them.
00:31:40.740
And gosh, God was so good when he made the family.
00:31:44.700
He made the family specifically for the tethering of the man, the protection of the woman and
0.64
00:31:53.540
the tethering of the woman in some ways, and the protection of the child.
00:31:57.160
When we go outside of that, in the name of love is love, in the name of just being authentic
00:32:07.800
Katie Fouse has been talking about this for a long time.
00:32:12.160
Also recommend you read Love Thy Body by Nancy Piercy.
00:32:15.740
Just gives you a very solid theological and philosophical grounding for the definition of
00:32:21.200
marriage, how we should treat our bodies when it comes to sex, and then also like why the
00:32:39.960
And so what is Christian's role in all of this?
00:32:42.540
It's certainly not to just make the peace with it.
00:32:46.020
It's certainly not to just like give nuance to the situation.
00:32:49.320
Well, maybe it's okay if someone identifies as this.
00:32:51.660
Maybe you should just use the, you know, preferred pronouns in some case.
00:32:55.500
Like maybe if we're just nice to them, they'll stop shooting people.
00:33:03.200
Like you're not going to Neville Chamberlain yourself out of this one.
00:33:07.300
We're not going to be able to compromise out of this one.
00:33:10.060
The way out of this is clarity and courage, not hatred, not cruelty.
00:33:15.960
You share the gospel with them, but it is never loving to lie to someone and to say,
00:33:20.560
actually, yeah, God was wrong when he created you.
00:33:23.780
So speak the truth in love to your friends who buy into this, your friends who have their
00:33:38.260
I've already encouraged you to read someone else's book, but I do encourage you to read
00:33:43.380
And if you just read the gender chapter, you are going to know so much about where this
00:33:47.840
philosophy comes from, how it started, the people who have pushed it, the money that
00:33:53.420
is behind it, the science behind gender, and of course, what the Bible says about this
00:34:00.740
We talked about last week that alliteration, the five R's that we talk about when it comes
0.90
00:34:05.940
to the definition of marriage, but it's also true of the definition of gender.
00:34:09.280
The definition of gender is between male and females rooted in creation, reiterated throughout
00:34:13.660
scripture, repeated by Jesus in Matthew 19, four through five, representative of Christ
00:34:18.860
in the church when it comes to marriage in Ephesians 5.
00:34:21.160
And then is also, in a way, reflective of the gospel when man and woman are joined in marriage.
00:34:32.100
It is not possible to be pro-transgender and to be a Christian.
00:34:38.420
So love your neighbor enough to tell the truth.
00:34:42.420
Love your neighbor enough to try to preserve their life, to try to protect them from the dangers
00:34:51.860
Unfortunately, this is a pattern that we see over and over again.
00:34:56.740
Charlie Kirk was allegedly shot by someone who had a so-called transgender partner, was
00:35:02.640
angry about the truth that he spoke about male and female, which is biblical truth, which
00:35:08.600
The Annunciation Catholic school shooting in Minneapolis was also committed by someone who
00:35:14.040
called himself transgender, Perry High School shooting in Iowa, January 2024, two killed
00:35:19.760
shooter, identified as transgender, Covenant Christian school shooting in Nashville.
00:35:25.520
Everyone should go back and watch my episode on that from a couple of years ago, March 2023.
00:35:29.880
I could barely hold it together, but just understand what this ideology is doing.
00:35:36.040
Even the Club Q gay bar shooting in Colorado Springs for November 2022, someone who identified
00:35:45.660
It's killing the people who believe it, and it's killing other people too.
00:35:55.840
Go to our next sponsor first, and that is Legacy Box.
00:35:58.900
I'm so grateful for Legacy Box and the service that they offer.
00:36:02.420
It's such an incredible idea, because those of us who were born in the 90s, we've got a
00:36:06.640
bunch of these home videos of us on VHS tapes, and we want to be able to pass them down, but
00:36:12.260
we can't even watch them because none of us have a VHS player anymore, and even if they
00:36:17.180
got transferred to DVD several years ago, well, now we don't have DVD players, and our
00:36:21.060
computers don't even give us the option of putting in discs.
00:36:25.360
And so you really just need it in a digital file, and that's exactly what Legacy Box does.
00:36:29.560
They send you this box, and you put in your VHS tapes, and you can put in your pictures,
00:36:34.960
and all of these memories can be digitized and put into a file that is well-organized,
00:36:41.620
They send you back all the hard copies too, of course, and now you have a version of all
00:36:46.280
of these incredible memories over the decades that you can pass down to your kids and your
00:36:52.160
If your house gets flooded, hopefully that doesn't happen, or something gets damaged in
00:36:58.020
a move, you don't have to worry about losing these memories.
00:37:13.640
Let's do an update quickly on the Epstein files.
00:37:16.340
And I know that we're moving from dark to dark here, but it's so important for us to
00:37:23.320
Look, I think it's really overwhelming for all of you and also all of us in the commentary
00:37:28.260
space to know what to talk about and when, and to know exactly what has been verified,
00:37:36.240
But the truth is, is that those in the Epstein files, especially those who have been documented
00:37:43.240
as saying nasty stuff about children, I mean, some of the images, I'm trying not to look at
00:37:48.560
the images and to read the descriptions of some of the things that have been happening
00:37:53.460
over the years to babies, to children, like, and some of it, again, I'm not even sure is
00:37:59.020
real if it's just some exaggerated, um, uh, allegation, but some of this stuff is real.
00:38:05.140
And I, I don't even want, I don't even want to repeat it to you because of how difficult
00:38:10.940
it is to stomach, but some of the darkest and most demonic stuff was happening with impunity
00:38:19.540
It does still happen in other realms of the world today.
00:38:22.540
And anyone who is found to have been talking about committing those acts, who did commit
00:38:28.420
those acts, who was involved with Jeffrey Epstein in any way, they need to be brought to justice.
00:38:34.640
Our DOJ has a responsibility to do that, but other world governments do as well.
00:38:38.560
And so in a stunning turn of events, which you've probably heard about by now, last Thursday,
00:38:43.400
Prince Andrew was arrested at his home in the UK for suspicion of misconduct while in office.
00:38:49.680
Police stated they were investigating allegations that Jeffrey Epstein, um, that trafficked Virginia
00:38:55.240
Jew free to Britain for Andrew at the age of 17. Uh, there are several other people around
1.00
00:39:03.400
the world who are now being called out and are stepping down, uh, because of their alleged
00:39:10.260
involvement with Jeffrey Epstein. Uh, so I'm not going to be able to pronounce all of these,
00:39:16.480
these names. I don't have any phonetic spelling on my document. Uh, they're born Jagland, former
00:39:22.560
prime minister of Norway and former secretary general of, uh, the council of Europe. He was charged in
00:39:29.080
February, 2026 with gross corruption, including allegedly accepting gifts and travel to Epstein's
00:39:35.000
properties. Larry Summers, former U S treasury secretary under Obama and former Harvard president.
00:39:41.720
He resigned from the board of open AI recently, um, and several other public roles. And in November,
00:39:48.840
2025, after, uh, emails were revealed him seeking romantic advice from Epstein, Kimball Musk, Elon
00:39:56.800
Musk's younger brother, uh, board member of the burning man project resigned in February, 2026,
00:40:02.920
following emails showing Epstein helped arrange a personal relationship for him in 2012 and 2013.
00:40:08.760
Uh, Peter Mandelson, UK's ambassador to the U S dismissed in September, 2025 after sending supportive
00:40:15.940
messages to Epstein, following his conviction and maintaining contact. We've got Steve Tisch,
00:40:21.040
co-owner of the New York giants prompted an NFL review after emails from 2013 released in the Epstein
00:40:27.320
files showed exchanges with Epstein discussing connections to women. And then lastly, we have
00:40:33.100
Kathy Rumler. I think that's how you pronounce her last name, chief legal officer of Goldman Sachs
00:40:38.300
and former white house counsel under president Barack Obama, a confidant of president Barack Obama.
00:40:44.340
Uh, she was very tight. It seems like in these emails that were revealed with Epstein signing off
00:40:49.680
with XO XO planning Island visits. She submitted her resignation in February, 2026 effective four
00:40:56.500
months, uh, four, four months from now after scrutiny on her interactions with Epstein. It's clear that
00:41:03.240
these people at the very least knew Epstein was a sketchy guy who bribed people and who could make all
00:41:11.420
of your hedonistic dreams come true. And they continued to associate with him. Now, I believe
00:41:18.540
some of these people probably did do criminal activity with Jeffrey Epstein beyond what we can even
00:41:25.240
imagine. And I just want to know, like, what, what has happened to these child victims? Like, where are
00:41:34.380
they? And I just hope that we have more brave people willing to come forward and to say, this is
00:41:40.400
who my abuser was. Of course, we know Bill Gates was reportedly friends with Jeffrey Epstein. Melissa
00:41:47.520
Gates has now talked about that openly. And so a few years ago, I think a lot of people thought that
00:41:53.600
this was a conspiracy theory, that this is just some like cuckoo thing that these random obscure people on
00:42:01.940
the internet thought was happening. There's no way that it's happening. There's no way anyone's above
00:42:06.840
the law. I think what we're realizing is that there is an echelon of people that we don't have
00:42:11.600
any understanding of when it comes to their power and the level of their depravity. Remember, we read
00:42:18.580
in scripture that the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And you might think, well, no,
00:42:25.420
it's not just money, it's lust, it's power. Yes. But if scripture is true, then it's actually the love
00:42:34.080
of money, covetousness, greed, that is a root, at least of all different kinds of evil, not money
00:42:40.420
itself, but the idolatry of having more and more power and more influence and more pleasure. And after
00:42:48.740
reading all of this, it actually is, it's just the circumstances surrounding Epstein's death,
00:42:55.020
they just seem sketchier and sketchier. That's all I'll say. So I'll continue paying attention to this.
00:43:01.460
It's always a balance for me. Like how much darkness do I show on this show? Do I talk about on this show
00:43:07.800
trying to protect the ears and the eyes of myself, but also of y'all while not ignoring the darkness
00:43:14.140
that's happening, praying for justice. And we should all be pushing for that. All right, let me
00:43:21.520
end on a couple of things. One disturbing, but then one really, really helpful. But first, let me tell
00:43:30.420
you about our next sponsor, and that's Seven Weeks Coffee. In all of the darkness that's happening in
00:43:36.320
the world, I'm just so thankful for fellow Christians and especially Christian companies
00:43:40.220
that are ushering in light, using their talents, using their resources in a way that glorifies God
00:43:45.680
and helps the most vulnerable. Seven Weeks Coffee not only makes you really great tasting coffee,
00:43:50.940
it's super high quality, mold-free, pesticide-free, organic, all that good stuff. We love it in our
00:43:55.880
home. But they also donate 10% of every sale to a pregnancy center across the country. They've donated
00:44:01.640
well over a million dollars to these pregnancy centers that translates into saving these baby lives,
00:44:06.760
giving moms in crisis the resources they need to make that life-affirming choice so you can allow
00:44:12.540
your coffee to serve a higher purpose. I'm so thankful for Seven Weeks Coffee that they make
00:44:17.860
an awesome product that is also saving lives. So go to sevenweekscoffee.com, use code Allie.
00:44:23.260
You'll get an extra 10% off on your first order when you use my code. That's sevenweekscoffee.com,
00:44:30.480
code Allie. Okay, I've been meaning to talk about this and we just haven't gotten a chance,
00:44:39.620
but I want to talk about Frida Baby. Now, this one, this story is extremely disappointing to me
00:44:47.260
because I and every other mom I know has used the Frida Baby products, whether it's the snot sucker
1.00
00:44:55.520
or the breastfeeding tools, they have really good effective products that are, I thought like at
00:45:03.660
first, just looking at the font and the name and some of the cute depictions on there, just like
00:45:09.960
well-marketed, well-packaged, young, hip-looking products. I mean, they've completely blown up in
00:45:16.860
the past few years because they just have a really effective marketing strategy. I have never,
00:45:22.820
ever noticed any kind of sexual innuendo on any of their packages until they started getting
00:45:30.000
backlash and people started pointing out. I had no idea some of the stuff that they had been posting
00:45:35.080
about, but people pointed out that this is actually the theme and basically all of their products,
00:45:40.920
turning these baby items into some kind of sexual joke. So this is according to Newsweek,
00:45:47.280
Frida, the parent company of Frida Baby and Frida Mom, because they've got baby products and mom
00:45:51.520
products is facing widespread backlash and calls for boycotts after old social media posts and
00:45:56.640
product packaging featuring sexual innuendos went viral on social media last week. The controversy
00:46:02.220
exploded over a now deleted post that promoted a rectal thermometer for babies captioned, this is
00:46:08.460
like really actually tough for me to read. This is the closest your husband's going to get to a
00:46:14.500
threesome. You just have to wonder, like what is going through the mind of someone that is
00:46:19.940
like creating the packaging and marketing for something that, you know, detects a fever in
00:46:24.760
your child and thinks threesome. It's just very strange. Then you also have this ear thermometer.
00:46:33.840
It's like an ear, forehead, touchless thermometer. And it says, how about a quickie? Now, I guess I'm
00:46:39.880
just not that observant. I probably wouldn't have noticed that, but that one in light of all of the
00:46:44.220
other ones is obviously a sexual joke. Even there, it looks like humidifier. I get turned on easily.
00:46:51.960
Another sexual joke. This one is like a nasal aspirator and it says, I'm a power sucker. I guess
00:46:59.620
that's a sexual reference. And then one that I found really disturbing, and we cover up the faces of
00:47:06.560
children because I don't think children should be made content. You've got this Frida Baby Instagram
00:47:11.620
post and it's referencing their snot sucker, which if you're not a parent, like that alone is going to
0.88
00:47:19.840
like really gross you out. But I won't even explain how it works. It's just pulling the snot out of the
1.00
00:47:26.100
child's nose. And this, I guess this child has some like mucus on their face and Frida Baby's caption
1.00
00:47:33.400
is what happens when you pull out too early. Okay. Really inappropriate. And people kind of dug up
00:47:40.420
like who their marketing team was and put, this is on their website, like put the names and the faces
00:47:47.120
of these people who are in charge of packaging, who are in charge of marketing, who are in charge of
00:47:51.540
social media. And then Frida Baby ended up taking that page down. So obviously they realized there's
00:47:58.360
some controversy there. A lot of, I mean, it's not just men, it's men and women on this team, but it did
00:48:04.060
seem like it was a male team that was in charge of marketing, which I just think is odd. Like this is
00:48:09.820
obviously a female brand. I'm not saying that you can't hire men at all, but why would men know like
00:48:16.880
what attracts a woman to a particular product? I just, I just find that a little bit weird.
0.99
00:48:22.960
And so this is unraveling for them right now. Um, they have responded and they basically just said,
00:48:31.280
you know what, like what's funny to one person is not funny to another person, but they certainly
00:48:37.200
didn't apologize. Now this is their entire strategy. So how they're going to pivot. I'm
00:48:43.200
not exactly sure. I just don't understand when it became acceptable to use kids as fodder for sexual
00:48:50.820
jokes, like publicly, commercially to make money off of something like that. Once again, kids who can't
00:48:57.740
speak up for themselves and they're just perverts out there who love this kind of stuff. And it just
00:49:02.940
ends up like infesting people's brains and it changes how we, uh, talk about children and how
00:49:10.720
we think about this stuff. And I really just think it's glossing over one of the biggest evils in the
00:49:17.140
world, which is the sexualization objectification of children. And by the way, Christians for 2000
0.93
00:49:22.260
years have been the ones to stand up for that, stand up against that rather. And from the early Roman
0.89
00:49:28.420
empire to today to say, yeah, the child sacrifice and the child sexualization is going to end now.
00:49:33.780
And so we still have a responsibility to do that. And some, uh, some perspectives or some passages
00:49:40.400
come to mind. Proverbs 26, 18 through 19, like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows in death is the
00:49:48.580
man who deceives his neighbor and says, I am only joking. Interesting. Luke 17 too. It would be better for
00:49:56.000
him. This is Jesus. If a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea, then that
00:50:01.920
he should cause one of these little ones to sin. Ephesians five, three through four, but sexual
0.81
00:50:07.480
immorality and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you as is proper among the
00:50:14.060
saints. Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk, nor crude joking, which are out of place, but
00:50:18.640
instead let there be Thanksgiving. So we really shouldn't have any level of tolerance of this kind of
00:50:25.220
stuff, which is really a bummer because I, some of their products are super effective and it just
00:50:30.720
wasn't necessary. I think they could have been very successful without this. And unfortunately they've
00:50:37.440
normalized something really wicked. All right, let's end on something that is encouraging. Uh, let's end
00:50:45.800
on, uh, Ben Sass who has been diagnosed with cancer and a stage four pancreatic cancer. He described it as a
00:50:54.500
death sentence. And so apparently it is definitely fatal, but he is now going on several podcasts and he is
00:51:01.580
just talking about his faith and talking about how he is facing death with courage. And I just want to
00:51:06.500
play you a clip. It's a little over a minute and respond to it in just a second. Let me tell you about
00:51:10.840
our last sponsor for the day. First, as America turns 250, we want to help good ranchers take a moment to
00:51:17.360
remember the people who helped build it. Not the ones in history books necessarily, but the ones who woke up
00:51:22.360
before the sun season after season without seeking any sort of applause. Those are America's ranchers
00:51:28.580
and their farmers who don't get the gratitude they need, but the way that we can support them,
00:51:33.080
especially this year as we're celebrating America's big birthday is to buy all of our meat from American
00:51:38.400
farms and ranches rather than rewarding the foreign meat makers that are sending the cheap meat over here
0.83
00:51:44.700
probably aren't feeding their cows. Well, like we want to make sure that we are honoring all of the hard
00:51:49.660
work of these family farms. That's why we get our meat from good ranchers. Plus it just makes your
00:51:54.540
life easier. It shows up in a box on dry ice on your front door every month. You don't have to worry
00:52:00.560
about picking meat out at the grocery store. They've got all different kinds of meat, seafood, chicken,
00:52:05.720
beef. They've got steak. They've got chicken nuggets. They've got bacon and it's all so good. I can tell
00:52:13.820
you personally that I love good ranchers meat. Go to good ranchers.com. Use code Allie. You'll get an
00:52:18.900
extra $25 off your first order. Go to ranchers.com, code Allie.
00:52:27.740
So Ben Sass is a former senator for Nebraska, and he recently shared this really, what I thought was
00:52:35.120
maybe the most profound, succinct presentation of the gospel. On Wednesday, February 18th, he was on an
00:52:43.480
episode of the Sola Media podcast, and here's how he described just this incredible mystery and seeming
00:52:52.560
paradox of being this sinner, rebel, image bearer of God saved by Christ. Here's that too.
00:52:59.720
It's fun to talk to your kids and your nephews and nieces about how Jesus did everything on the
00:53:08.020
cross to fulfill the whole law. I fulfilled none of it. He fulfilled all of it, and he took away
00:53:13.380
all of my sins, and I'm not just justified. I'm actually being made intrinsically righteous,
00:53:19.420
though you can't see it like so little fruit and buds, but it will be accomplished. And so
00:53:25.180
the gospel is all of those ordo salutis stuff, and we get to talk about what Jesus did for us positively
00:53:33.880
and took away negatively. We were saved on a cross tree outside Jerusalem, and we are being saved,
00:53:43.280
and we will be saved completely. But Genesis 3 and Romans 5, like, I am, in Adam, a member of this
00:53:51.380
rebellious race. Imago Dei, we were created glorious in God's image and meant for fellowship with him,
00:53:57.140
and yet we're a part of this rebel clan of everybody. And that's not the end of the story.
00:54:03.440
The end of the story is the new Adam came from heaven, laid down all of his prerogatives, and came
0.82
00:54:12.360
It's really hard to get through that, especially at the very end when he starts to tear up. And I just
00:54:17.860
love seeing a grown man broken by the beauty of the gospel. Like, that is a man who has studied
00:54:24.080
his Bible. That is a man who knows his theology. That is a man who is facing death with courage
00:54:28.740
because he knows Jesus. Not because he is counting on his own righteousness. Not because he's counting
00:54:35.300
his list of good deeds. Not because he's looking at his record of public service. Not because he's
00:54:40.260
like, wow, I accomplished a lot in life. Look at me. I was a senator. But because he knows his Savior.
00:54:46.360
And that is the only place, really, that any of us can have confidence. And he is showing the world
00:54:52.300
how to die well. And that takes a lot of bravery. 2 Corinthians 4, 16 through 18.
00:54:57.240
So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed
00:55:01.600
day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory
00:55:06.640
beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen, but to the things that
00:55:10.940
are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are
00:55:15.720
eternal. Romans 5, 3 through 5. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that
00:55:20.720
suffering produces endurance. And endurance produces character. And character produces
00:55:25.180
hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into
00:55:30.000
our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
00:55:35.000
So that's the hope that we have. We've got a lot of craziness, a lot of darkness going on
00:55:41.120
in the world. But death, especially imminent death, like the one Ben Sasse is facing, has a way
00:55:47.240
of narrowing your perspective and bringing to light the things that are most important.
00:55:55.240
And all of this that we talked about today is important. But I want us to remember that
00:56:02.320
the most important thing that we can do is share the gospel with those we know and love and disciple
00:56:10.440
our kids in what is good, right, and true. I just want you to know that is also a way to fight
00:56:15.220
the culture war. It doesn't necessarily mean running for office. It might mean starting a
00:56:20.760
podcast, but it might just mean doing your job as a mom, as a neighbor, as a citizen with total
00:56:28.440
clarity and courage and boldness. God uses the unseen and unsung work of believers throughout history
00:56:35.380
to accomplish incredible feats. And I trust that that's what God is going to do through all of our
00:56:41.780
lives. And I hope to be an encouragement in that for you. All right, that's all we've got time for
