Jon comments on how governmental institutions posting the kings of things based edgelord's post undermines the serious nature of the government's task and authority.

SBC churches have partnered with government-funded organizations such as World Relief, Arrive Ministries, and Lutheran Services for refugee resettlement. Many of these groups receive substantial federal grants, offer legal services including citizenship applications and removal defense, distribute "know your rights" materials advising non-cooperation with ICE, and engage in political advoc...

Today I'm sharing my article from December 26, 2025, "When Dinner Stops Being Ours: Cuisine, Immigration, and the Quiet Erosion of Belonging." I challenge the idea—pushed by folks like Piers Morgan—that mass immigration is worth it because it spices up "bland" Western food. While new flavors can be great, I argue through personal stories of smoking Southern barbecue in the Huds...

In today's episode, I'm sharing my latest article, "Regaining the American Dream for Zoomers: What the Government Can Do." I argue that the classic American Dream—of hard work leading to independence, family, and community—is slipping away from Generation Z amid skyrocketing debt, collapsing marriage and birth rates, and cultural decay. While prayer and personal virtue are essentia...

Mateen talks about his upbringing in Iran, his father being a government official, trying to follow Islam, but getting converted while living in one of the Gulf states.

Let's dive into the dramatic rise and fall of New Calvinism (the Young, Restless, and Reformed) movement that once captivated a generation of evangelical men seeking doctrinal depth and masculine leadership. We'll look at "father hunger," the shift from solid theology to holistic lifestyle brands, and the erosion of standards amid scandals, shifting labels, and online tribalism. We...

In "The Schemes of the Devil" based on Ephesians 6:10-12, Jon Harris urges believers to recognize the reality and danger of Satan, a deceptive liar and destroyer who blinds unbelievers and actively tempts Christians toward sin, division, unforgiveness, pride, and false beliefs, yet whose power is limited and ultimately defeated. While unbelievers remain helpless under his dominion and shou...

In the classic film It’s a Wonderful Life, George Bailey embodies the dutiful, small-town American man who sacrifices personal ambitions for family and community, yet struggles with feelings of insignificance and unfulfilled dreams—a midlife crisis many modern middle-aged men experience today, intensified by technology and social media. These men often feel invisible as they watch others gain infl...

The Southern Baptist Convention has undermined its moral authority amid America's institutional legitimacy crisis by adopting progressive agendas, including a multimillion-dollar #MeToo alliance costing over $13 million—featuring the Guidepost investigation—that led to selling its headquarters.
