Truthspresso

This episode is a call to action for listeners of Truthspresso to help out a ministry suffering from hurricane Helene! After discussing some of the timeline and effects of hurricanes Helene and Milton, I show how some politicians want to pretend to care about people. Never let a crisis go to waste, it seems. Don't be like power-hungry politicians! Be Christians! Fellow podcaster and member of the...

This episode is part 4 of examining common claims about something Donald Trump said. As we examine each trope let's ask ourselves "Did Trump really say that?!" Context is king. There can be more than meets the eye than what media will often have us believe. In part 4 we dissect two hoaxes: The "Putin is a Genius" hoax The WWI soldiers are "losers and suckers" hoax Sources Cited: Philip Bump, " 'Ge...

In this episode of Truthspresso I chat about Jesus and socialism. A coworker a while ago made the claim to me that Jesus was a socialist. I have certainly heard this claim before, but I figured I would address it. In part 11 we look at three parables to see if they lean more socialist or free market capitalist: The hidden treasure in the field The pearl of great price The vineyard tenants Because...

In this episode of Truthspresso I chat about Jesus and socialism. A coworker a while ago made the claim to me that Jesus was a socialist. I have certainly heard this claim before, but I figured I would address it. In part 10 we look at the parable of the unjust steward. A "Christian socialist" claims that this parable proves that Jesus favors defrauding wealthy people to give to the poor. While th...

After I dropped off my sons for a church youth activity I recorded most of this episode in my car in the parking lot. I shared a few thoughts mostly about the march on Monday afternoon before the opening speeches. Women dressed as abortion pills, pro-Palestine protesters, rainbow flags, and a sign that says "Trump and J.D. Vance are weird" donned the street. During the first two days of the DNC, a...

As I was reading stuff online I came across an article from Roman Catholic apologist Dave Armstrong against William Lane Craig's defense of monothelitism. Armstrong blames Craig's error on Sola Scriptura and rejecting the "infallibility" of the Roman Catholic church. While I agree that Craig is wrong about monothelitism, I also believe Armstrong is wrong about why. This episode addresses both the...

Romans 2:13 says that "the doers of the law shall be justified." Romans 3:20 says that "by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified." Did Paul teach justification by keeping the law? Did Paul contradict himself? Chelsea returns to co-host this episode as we summarize Paul's arguments in Romans chapter 1 through 3. We believe Paul was making one harmonizing point with both verses. Scr...

May 30, 2024 is a day that will live in infamy! Donald Trump became the first former President of the United States to be brought to court on felony charges and have a jury reach a verdict of guilty. Not to mention that this happened while he is currently running for President again and is the highest polling candidate. The ripple effects of this historical day will be felt indefinitely. The debat...

In this episode I play some clips from episodes of Truthspresso in early 2020 where I predicted that the pandemic relief measures would lead to price inflation. Prepare to be amazed ! ;) Do I have the spiritual gift of prophecy? No. It's just what the Austrian School of economics understood would happen. A Biblical view of government forbids monetary inflation and such frivolous borrowing and spen...

On Saturday, July 13, at a rally in Pennsylvania, former President Trump was giving an outdoor speech. Six minutes into it, gunshots were fired! The President felt one round whiz by his head. A second one bloodied his right ear. He ducked in the nick of time to avoid a third one that likely wouldn't have missed. Thankfully, he was Ok. He expressed valiance as his security detail escorted him out....

Back in November and December of 2020 I released three episodes of my own sci-fi satire story of an alien invasion. It was meant to teach Biblical lessons against tyrannical monetary policies and cultural Marxism. Now you can listen to the whole story in one jumbo episode! Enjoy! Scriptures Referenced: Proverbs 28:4-5 ***  Castle Rock Women's Health  is a pro-life and pro-women health ca...

Does the account of the rich, young ruler in the gospels show that Jesus taught that we could obtain eternal life by keeping the commandments of the law to the best of our ability? It can seem that way--unless we really pay attention. Let's not gloss over the lesson Jesus taught not only to this rich, young man, but also to His disciples around Him and to us today. What are we trusting for God's a...

Chelsea and I exhibited Castle Rock Women's Health at the  Rocky Mountain Homeschool Conference  hosted by the  Christian Home Educators of Colorado . Taking a few short breaks from the exhibit I carried my portable recording gear with me. I found some exhibits with hosts willing to talk for a few minutes and pitch their services to a Truthspresso audience. In this episode I talk ab...

On May 11, Harrison Butker, a devout Roman Catholic, and a kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, gave a commencement speech at Benedictine College to talk about traditional Catholic values. Butker praised his wife for being a homemaker. This made the wokesters in the media pull out their hair. Although I am not Roman Catholic, I agree with what Butker said about his wife and defend him against his cr...

We have heard the saying that the two most certain things are death and taxes. Rarely do governments repeal any of the many taxes they impose. However, a bunch of politicians in Congress and some in the Senate want to "repeal" a certain "tax" as a matter of social justice. This "tax" is the so-called "pink tax." Because women may pay more on average for certain products and services than men, acti...

My wife Chelsea returns after several weeks to co-host with me again for a Mother's Day episode. First, we see how current dictionaries define mother . Next, we discuss mothers in various situations and how Mother's Day may be difficult for some mothers. Finally, we look at the examples of Lois and Eunice (Timothy's grandmother and mother respectively) and how a Christian mother's nurturing faith...

Looking at the recent "pro-Palestine" protesters taking over college campuses and setting up tent encampments, I observe their strange an nuanced demands. Many of the protesters don't even know why they're protesting! The reason these college kids oppose Israel and "support Palestine" seems not because they're intrinsically antisemitic, but because they've been indoctrinated with cultural Marxism....
