The Heidi St. John Podcast

Beth Stelzer walked into her first powerlifting match expecting to encounter a room full of individuals who were there to support strong women. Instead, a biological male who “identified” as a woman distracted from the competition by protesting throughout the event because he was not permitted to compete with the women.

As the culture moves further and further away from truth, it cannot help but careen away from from rational thinking.

The explosion of lawless rioting on American streets was only a matter of time. Sixty-two years ago, former FBI agent W.

“For all intents and purposes, the ‘Branch Covidians’ (as we call them) are perhaps the largest cult in American history. Every cult has a cult leader, and for these Branch Covidians their high priest is no other than Anthony Fauci.” Steve believes there are seven characteristics of a cult. Today, we’ll go through some of them and see how many of the boxes are checked in the cult of Covid. Above a...

We are a world in the firm grip of fear right now. And fears, like every other thought, are based on our beliefs. In the midst of unprecedented challenges, God’s people need to do some soul-searching. Do we truly believe our days were numbered before we were even conceived? Do we really believe all things work together for God’s glory? If so, we need to live like we believe it. Fear is not a virtu...

It’s hard to look at what’s happening in our world right now without feeling a sense of deep frustration and even anger. We see politicians and bureaucrats making nonsensical and damaging decisions. “Woke” corporations are holding their customers hostage with non-scientific mask mandates and making overtly racist decisions, further eroding our relationships and tearing our nation apart. Where is t...

Yesterday, another well-known evangelical announced his “de-conversion.” As progressive Churches embrace the “woke” gospel, we must reflect on how we got here. In part, we are experiencing the natural consequences of a lazy church that does not embrace sound doctrine. The “woke” church is a broke church—and it’s time we talked about it. **Find more at HeidiStJohn.com **

As our children grow and mature, our relationship with them changes. I think of this like a caterpillar spinning a cocoon.
