Give Me Liberty with Ryan Helfenbein

Too often New Year’s resolutions are about self-help. They should be about stewardship. Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. Resolve to live intentionally for God’s glory in 2026.

His Gospel is peace. Not the world’s fragile ceasefires or empty promises—but peace with God, secured by the blood of the cross. Christ didn’t come to manage chaos. He came to reconcile sinners and reign forever.

Christmas is about transformation. Dickens understood it: a changed heart, not government force, produces generosity. Scrooge had to face death before he could truly live. That’s the Gospel of Christmas

Creeds don’t compete with Scripture, they protect it. Christmas isn’t sentimental myth; it’s historic, theological truth. Fully God. Fully man. That’s why creeds and confessions still matter.

The Political Rules No One Escapes Everyone conserves what they know best. Any institution not explicitly conservative drifts left. Bureaucracies inevitably serve themselves. These aren’t opinions. They’re laws of political gravity.

Turning the Nativity into immigration propaganda isn’t compassion, it’s heresy. Jesus wasn’t an illegal immigrant. He broke no laws. He came as King and Savior. When churches replace worship with political theater, they stop being churches.

The IRS says it won’t enforce the Johnson Amendment. That’s not repeal. That’s a pause button. Government has no business regulating sermons, especially when political issues have become spiritual issues. Stop policing sermons. Repeal the Johnson Amendment.

What happened at Bondi Beach was entirely preventable. It was Islamic terror enabled by a cravenly culture of appeasement. When governments refuse to confront evil, innocent people pay the price. How many more warnings does the West need?

Iryna Zarutska would be alive today if it were not for cashless bail. When repeat violent offenders are released and innocent people are murdered, the data is clear: these policies fail. Government exists to protect the innocent—not experiment on them.

Candace Owens said many times she'd quit pushing conspiracy theories "if Erika tells me to." Well... Erika told her. Clearly. "Stop."And Candace? She's doubling down. Stop in the name of God.

America’s fertility rate has collapsed to 1.6 — far below replacement. And instead of asking why Americans can’t conceive, we’re told IVF is the fix. But IVF doesn’t cure infertility. Until we treat root causes, not manufacture embryos, America’s fertility crisis won’t heal.

Lab-made eggs. Lab-made sperm. Children engineered, screened, and selected. Marriage optional. Mothers and fathers optional. Embryos discarded like products. IVG: the new horror of Bio-Tech

Barna’s new research is sobering: Marriage is down. Cohabitation is rising. Christians divorce at the same rate as non-Christians. When the church mirrors the culture, something is deeply wrong.

Trump’s tariffs reshaped global trade overnight. Now he wants to send the money back as stimulus checks. Tariffs work when they fix trade imbalance. They fail when they become handouts.

1.3 million H-1B workers + dependents. 50 million foreign-born. Entire industries built on visa labor. This isn’t “immigration.” It’s the slow outsourcing of a nation.

Charlie Kirk’s murder unleashed a wave of conspiracies, most without evidence, many driven by contempt, not truth. Critical thinking starts with humility: Ask if it’s true. Ask if it’s edifying. Ask if it harms the innocent. Christians must reject grifters and return to truth.

Ryan Helfenbein sits down with Pastor Josh McPherson for a candid conversation about worship, courage, and the future of the church. They look back at Charlie Kirk's memorial service, discuss Charlie's impact, and dig into why public, unapologetic faith matters more than ever. Ryan and Pastor Josh tackle the crisis facing young men, the hunger for tradition, and why both modern evangelicalism and...

Zohran Mamdani didn’t win because socialism works. He won because America’s safeguards— the family, the Church, and small business— have been dismantled. Socialism didn’t rise. We fell.

It’s the job of the Christian shepherd to love everyone within proximity of their church or ministry, but it’s the job of the government to ensure that everyone doesn’t include jihadi terrorists. Import the ideology, import the violence. America cannot survive immigration that destroys American life.

Christ has come. Light has entered the world. Advent is the reminder that Christ is Lord of history. Empires fall. Ideologies collapse. False religions fade. Christ’s kingdom advances. And no force on earth can stop what began in Bethlehem.

Dr. Jack Graham sits down with Ryan Helfenbein at the Prestonwood Biblical Worldview Conference. They discuss the significance of a biblical worldview in education, the impact of political conservatism on faith, and the need for courage among young people today. They also address the challenges posed by third-wayism in evangelicalism and emphasize the importance of revival and engagement in the ne...

“For the Glory of God and the Advancement of the Christian Faith.”That’s the Mayflower Compact. The Pilgrims built a government on explicitly Christian purpose. Call it what you want, but today, that’s called Christian Nationalism.

The Pilgrims, some of the most disciplined, devout Christians in history, tried socialism. It nearly killed the colony. Only when Bradford restored private property did abundance return. The lesson is simple: socialism fails not because of bad people, but because it denies human nature and God’s design.

The International Olympic Committee is poised to ban biological men from women’s sports, a decisive break from trans ideology and a win for fairness, safety, and reality. When major institutions finally admit biology matters, the left's entire narrative begins to crumble. This is what a turning point looks like.
