  • Defining Government's Role: Constitutional Boundaries and Public Service
    Drawing the line between constitutional authority and overreach is more crucial than ever in today's political landscape. Our deep dive into government's proper role reveals how far we've strayed from the founders' vision of limited federal power - constrained to just a handful of specific responsibilities outlined in the Constitution.The conversation pivots on a fundamental question: who bears responsibility for caring for the vulnerable in society? When Jesus spoke about caring for "the least of these," He wasn't addressing government institutions but individual believers. This distinction matters profoundly. Biblical teachings clearly separate institutional roles: government administers justice while individuals, families, and churches demonstrate compassion. The blurring of these boundaries hasn't improved outcomes - it's diminished both freedom and genuine charity.We explore the stark contrast between socialistic and free-market approaches to employment and welfare. History demonstrates without exception that expanded government power correlates directly with diminished personal liberty. Our founders understood this principle, which is why they carefully crafted a system protecting the pursuit - not the guarantee - of happiness.The discussion extends to practical applications, from the growing movement of states eliminating income taxes to efforts across multiple legislatures to restore the Ten Commandments in public education. These initiatives represent a return to founding principles rather than religious imposition.Throughout, we emphasize effective communication strategies for discussing these controversial topics. Rather than confrontation, asking thoughtful questions opens doors to meaningful dialogue about our constitutional heritage and biblical foundations. This approach allows us to win people, not just arguments.Ready to become part of the solution?

  • Truth's Renaissance: The Coming Educational Revival in America
    The battle for America's soul is being waged in our museums, national parks, and historical institutions. In this compelling episode, we expose how "woke" historical revisionism is systematically distorting our national narrative, and explore the efforts to reclaim truthful accounts of our past.We dive deep into troubling examples like the Smithsonian's African American Museum erasing white anti-slavery advocates before the 1820s—effectively eliminating the contributions of founding fathers, Pennsylvania Quakers, and Northern colonies that legislated against slavery decades earlier. From Independence Hall tours that distract from constitutional history to Monticello presentations that vilify Thomas Jefferson, we examine how ideological agendas are reshaping American heritage sites.Trump's recent executive order mandating a return to factual historical presentations in federally-funded institutions offers a promising path forward. Just as major universities are abandoning DEI programs to maintain federal funding, there's hope our historical institutions might similarly return to accuracy and balance.Richard Harris joins us to discuss Truth and Liberty's upcoming awards banquet featuring Seth Gruber (creator of the 1916 Project) and honoring courageous individuals like Abby Johnson and Lt. Colonel Theresa Long. This event exemplifies the growing counter-movement dedicated to historical truth and constitutional education.We wrap with a fascinating discussion of presidential term limits, analyzing Trump's provocative "third term" comments as a masterful example of political trolling that's actually driving Americans back to studying the Constitution. Join us as we explore how reclaiming our historical narrative is essential to preserving our republic's future.Support the show

  • When Doctors Play God: Have Parents Lost Control of Their Children's Medical Decisions? - with Sandi Enzminger and Sheryl Crosier
     simonslaw.orgSheryl@simonslawSandi@simonslawSheryl Crosier never expected to become an advocate for parental rights in medical decision-making. Then she discovered that doctors had placed a Do Not Resuscitate order on her infant son Simon without her knowledge or consent after diagnosing him with trisomy 18. The medical staff had decided his life wasn't worth saving simply because of his chromosomal condition.This heartbreaking revelation launched Cheryl on a mission to ensure no other parent would be stripped of their right to make critical medical decisions for their children. The result was Simon's Law—groundbreaking legislation requiring healthcare providers to obtain explicit parental permission before placing DNR orders in a minor child's medical chart.Joined by fellow advocate Sandi Enzminger, whose daughter Tabitha also has trisomy 18 but is thriving at six and a half years old, Cheryl shares the painful details of discovering how medical professionals quietly withheld treatment from her son. "Once he was diagnosed, we started hearing 'not for Simon,'" she explains, revealing how certain lives are deemed less worthy of standard medical interventions.The implications extend far beyond children with genetic conditions. As Sandy powerfully articulates, any child could find themselves in a situation where doctors might make unilateral end-of-life decisions—whether after a bicycle accident or car crash. The fundamental question becomes: "Do you want a stranger making that life or death decision, or you?"Currently passed in twelve states with federal legislation pending, Simon's Law represents a critical protection for parental authority in an era where medical "experts" increasingly override family wishes. For those looking to support this vital cause or bring Simon's Law to their state, visit SimonsLaw.org to connect with advocates and learn how to protect the most vulnerable patients and their families from unauthorized end-of-life decisions.Support the show

  • God of the Bible vs. The Gods of America: Understanding Today's Spiritual Landscape- with George Barna
    Has America abandoned belief in God? George Barna's groundbreaking research reveals a startling spiritual transformation sweeping across our nation. Once a country where over 90% professed belief in the God of the Bible, today that number has plummeted to just 40% - a seismic shift with profound implications for our culture and future.The data paints a fascinating yet concerning picture. While 71% of Americans acknowledge some form of deity or supreme being, they worship more than two dozen different gods. Even more revealing, many who claim Christianity simultaneously embrace contradictory spiritual beliefs, creating a "mix-and-match theology" that places personal preference above biblical truth.This spiritual confusion extends beyond belief into practice. Of those who believe in the God of the Bible, surprisingly few consider Him "the most important element" in their lives. Many view their relationship with God as a partnership where they retain significant autonomy rather than submitting to His authority. The consequence? A nation where biblical values no longer form the foundation for decision-making.Yet within this troubling landscape, Barna identifies a powerful source of hope: the 4% of Americans who qualify as "integrated disciples" with a biblical worldview. Throughout history, God has worked through such committed minorities to transform cultures. The key to expanding this remnant lies in motivation and modeling - disciples who both understand biblical truth and demonstrate its application in everyday life.What does this mean for believers today? The path forward requires intentional discipleship - not just knowing biblical principles but living them out visibly so others can follow. As Barna explains, "You reproduce who you are." Cultural transformation begins not with winning arguments but with embodying truth in ways that inspire others to do the same.How will you respond to these findings? Will you deepen your own discipleship and then deliberately reproduce it in others? The future of faith in America may well depend on your answer.Support the show

  • The Resurgence of Founding Principles: How American History is Making a Comeback
    A revival of America's founding principles is underway, and we're celebrating the good news of this cultural shift back toward our historical roots. The 250th anniversary of Patrick Henry's iconic "Give me liberty or give me death" speech provides a perfect backdrop for examining the deep Christian influences that shaped our nation's beginnings.The proclamation honoring this milestone highlights a renewed appreciation for our founding fathers after years of neglect. Most Americans aren't aware that Patrick Henry's famous speech contains dozens of biblical references - revealing how thoroughly Scripture informed his thinking and that of his audience. When we analyze these historical texts today, we discover our founders weren't merely giving lip service to faith but had deeply internalized biblical knowledge that naturally flowed into their rhetoric and reasoning.Even Benjamin Franklin, often portrayed as the least religious founding father, demonstrates this pattern. A deep dive into his 1753 letter reveals passage after passage of Scripture woven seamlessly into his arguments. Without search engines or reference materials, Franklin quoted biblical texts from memory, raising compelling questions about the religious influences on all our founders. If the "least religious" founder was this biblically literate, what does that tell us about the others?This historical understanding matters today as we see encouraging signs of cultural renewal. Kentucky is returning their Ten Commandments monument to the capitol after decades of controversy. Bible sales have surged dramatically - up 87% in the UK and 30% in the US over recent years. Perhaps most surprisingly, young Britons are now less likely than older generations to identify as atheist, suggesting a spiritual hunger emerging in the next generation.Join us as we explore these developments and celebrate the good news that America's Christian heritage is being rediscovered and embraced by a new generation hungry for truth and meaning.Support the show
