The Heidi St. John Podcast

Today I’m honored to be joined by Congressional candidate, Joe Kent. You may remember that we ran for the same seat in 2022— and we have teamed up to help bring Republicans together in this crucial election season. The reason is simple: when Republicans work together—we win. Whether it’s here in Washington State or around the country, it’s time for all of us to form a united front so that we can a...

We are hearing more and more about young kids grappling with same-sex attraction. It's prevalent in the culture right now. Many kids today, many of them coming out of the government school system, see absolutely nothing wrong with transgenderism or same-sex attraction. And it's becoming an increasingly challenging subject for parents to navigate, given the fact that there are a lot of grow...

Like many of you, I am very concerned with what's happening in the government right now, particularly as it relates to social and moral issues. Chief among them is the issue of abortion. The question in the church right now is whether or not evangelicals and Bible-believing Christians should vote for a candidate that does not have a 100% solid pro-life stance. We’ve seen some major voices in t...

A handful of states still retain antiquated laws from the 1980s and 90s, but most states have removed unnecessary legal barriers with the recognition that homeschooling works. But pendulums swing, and in America today, the pendulum frequently swings in the wrong direction. Opponents of homeschool freedom are working in new and more coordinated ways to make homeschooling harder and less accessible...

In August of 2019, the New York Times inaugurated the 1619 Project. Their goal was to offer a new origin story of the American Republic. They argued that 1776 is not the origin of America as we know it, but rather, 1619, the year the first slaves were brought to American shores, as our true origin. They, of course, sought to link every supposed evil and ill of the 21st century with the racist heri...
