  • Thinking Biblically about Exercise (with David Mathis)
    Why would a pastor write a theological book on exercise? Would Jesus exercise if he were here bodily today? What does the Bible say about exercise and physical activity? And are Christians sinning if they don't exercise? These are a few of the questions Sean and Scott explore with pastor David Mathis, author of the new book A Little Theology of Exercise. David is senior teacher and executive editor of desiringGod.org, pastor at Cities Church (Saint Paul), and adjunct professor for Bethlehem College & Seminary (Minneapolis). He is author of ‘Habits of Grace: Enjoying Jesus through the Spiritual Disciplines.’ His articles and messages are available online at desiringGod.org/mathis. He is married to Megan and father of four children. Join us for ANCHORED: A Conference for Pastors, Church Leaders and the Community June 9-11, 2025.

  • Cultural Update: Are Young Men Lost?; Physician's Critique of Assisted Suicide; Pornhub's Secrets
    This week: Are Young Men Lost or Returning to Faith? A deep dive into seemingly contradictory studies on young men: while many are falling behind in education and mental health, others are returning to church and discovering faith through the Bible, not institutional religion.The Role of Fathers and Masculinity Sean and Scott discuss how the absence of fathers, misapplied cultural expectations, and lack of male mentorship contribute to young men's struggles today.Exposing Pornhub’s Dark Secrets A disturbing New York Times report reveals internal documents from Pornhub detailing massive amounts of child sexual abuse material and corporate negligence. What Does It Really Mean to Die with Dignity? The hosts reflect on a physician’s critique of assisted suicide laws, arguing true dignity comes from care, community, and affirming the worth of the vulnerable—not offering them an early death.Listener Q&A: Eastern Medicine and Cohabitation Thoughtful responses to audience questions on the ethical use of alternative medicine (book mentioned) and how to lovingly address adult children who are cohabitating. Join us for ANCHORED: A Conference for Pastors, Church Leaders and the Community June 9-11, 2025.

  • Is Empathy a Sin? (with Tim Muehlhoff)
    Is empathy being weaponized by Progressives to manipulate Christians into adopting certain ethical and political views?

Enjoy!Tim Muehlhoff received his Ph.D. in Communication Studies at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He is a professor of Communications at Biola University.
