• 209: When Bigfoot Becomes Mainstream
    Feb 27 2026

    What do you think about Bigfoot, or UFO’s, or aliens? These are all topics that used to be on the fringe of society, not really respectable for regular people to discuss. But as they’ve made their way into the mainstream of our cultural conversation, it’s important for us to answer the question, “how do we think biblically about these topics?”

  • 208: Where did grace and truth go?
    Feb 20 2026

    The last couple of weeks have been interesting for those of us who try and think biblically about current events. What I’ve noticed as I’ve looked through headlines and seen the stories that are being reported is that they fall into two broad categories: either the absence of truth or the absence of grace. Truth and grace, seemingly a paradox and yet two sides of the same coin that define how we as followers of Jesus Christ are meant to live our lives.

  • 207: Who will stand for truth?
    Feb 13 2026

    A Muslim walks into the Vatican and the Pope gives him a prayer rug. It sounds like the start of a really bad joke, but, in fact, it’s the start of a really bad story. Turns out, Pope Leo is following in the footsteps of Pope Francis before him and pursuing interfaith dialogue with Islam. That’s a problem.

  • 206: Increasing Persecution in the West
    Jan 30 2026

    When we hear the word “persecution,” we usually think about people suffering and being killed in faraway places. That’s exactly what’s happening in Nigeria today where Islamic extremists are attempting a genocide that will eliminate the entire Christian population in that nation. But there are other forms of persecution, some of which we may not be paying attention to and they’re happening right here in the West.

  • 205: Is it time to defend the Church?
    Jan 23 2026

    At most churches in America, you don’t need a police escort to go to church, but that might be changing.

  • 204: Islam in 2026: Shifting Tides?
    Jan 16 2026

    If you’ve watched the news this week, then you’re aware that right before our eyes there is a revolution unfolding in the nation of Iran. Maybe as many as 2,000 people have been killed and another 10,000 imprisoned by an oppressive Muslim regime trying to hold on for dear life as their regime is about to be toppled by their own people. We need to talk about the state of the Islamic world.

  • 203: Awful Imperialism or Lawful Arrest?
    Jan 9 2026

    Welcome back to a new season of TruthCurrents. A lot of things are happening in the world right now. Our task on TruthCurrents is not only to know what’s true, but to discover how to think biblically about currents events. Our question as we see the news headlines is, “What does the bible say about this and how should we think biblical thoughts?”

    So, buckle up because TruthCurrents over the next several weeks is going to be wild because so much is happening in the world. And followers of Jesus Christ need to think biblical thoughts so that we have a reference point for how to engage the world around us.

    Today we have the final installment of our conversation with Emilio Lartigue. His podcastis called Truth Matters. It’s a parallel to my TruthCurrents.

    We’re going to talk today about the end of all things. And I think you’ll find it a fascinating look into what’s behind the curtain, what’s still to come. Join us.
