In a culture that’s increasingly vocal (and confusing) about identity, gender, and sexuality, how can Christian parents, grandparents, ministry leaders, and those in close proximity to children guide them with biblical clarity and confidence? In this episode, we’re joined by Elizabeth Urbanowicz, educator, author, and founder of Foundation Worldview, to talk about her upcoming book, Helping Your Kids Know God's Good Design: 40 Questions and Answers on Sexuality and Gender. We’ll explore how to begin age-appropriate conversations with children about God's beautiful design for sex, identity, and relationships.

I share the latest developments at the Orange Sunday school curriculum in this in-depth update. Explore the recent leadership transitions, including the resignation of co-founder Reggie Joiner and CEO Kristen Ivy, and the acquisition by the Amazing Life Foundation. This video critically examines Orange’s nine theological insights, highlighting concerns about vague theology, secular humanism, and lack of transparency in their content and team. Is the new ownership poised to address these issues and bring more biblical depth to a curriculum reaching a million youth weekly? I analyze Orange’s direction, offer insights for KidMin leaders, and share my vision for how to reform the curriculum so that's rooted in robust Christian theology.

Join Monique for an in-depth and thought-provoking interview with Erin Kunkle from MAVEN to explore a Christian perspective on gentle parenting. In this long-form conversation, they dive into the popular yet controversial parenting philosophy, examining its core pillars—empathy, respect, understanding, and boundaries—and how they align (or don’t) with biblical principles. Erin, a mother of five and co-host of the MAVEN Parent Podcast, shares her insights on the rise of gentle parenting, its appeal to millennial parents, and the potential dangers of its therapeutic approach when disconnected from a Christian worldview. From discussing the cultural pressures of social media to unpacking key scriptures on parenting, this episode challenges listeners to consider how God’s design for family, authority, and discipline contrasts with modern parenting trends. Key Questions: 👉 How does gentle parenting handle sin and the human condition? 👉 Can empathy and respect coexist with firm, loving discipline? 👉 What does it mean to raise children who fear the Lord in a world that rejects authority?

But what you may not know, is how the vocabulary and ideas behind New Thought have penetrated many sectors of the church. We are going to talk about it with our friend, Melissa Dougherty, author of Happy Lies. Be sure to stay connected by downloading the CFBU app!

We are so excited to introduce you to our brother and historian, Dr. Glenn Sunshine. You don't want to miss this AMAZING conversation about civilization, our nation, its future, and the biblical blueprint for cultural renewal. Dr. Sunshine outlined 5 distinct features of a civilization in decline: 1. Loose sexual mores and loosening restrictions around marriage and sexual values. 2. A belief that society is not redeemable or able to be fixed. 3. Division of humans into separate categories (ex. oppressed vs. oppressor) 4. Economic deficit, mass government spending. 5. Unchecked immigration from people who are culturally different and unwilling to assimilate. Follow Dr. Sunshine's work at https://www.esquareinch.com/
