Nicole Shanahan's powerful shift from liberal "gray zone" morality to clear objective right & wrong: "I've learned since becoming Christian that there is actually an objective morality… When you live your life that way, your life gets better. You end up living in this light-filled, good-filled, morally sound, reasoned...

The Apollonians may have just totally redeemed themselves "I would look at morality...particularly Judaic Christian morality as, as also being a kind of weapon" "Jews got it in the heads of their their masters that actually being good is being meek, being good is being weak" "Being evil is being strong. And so that morality itself is wills of power. Morality can be used as a weapon and so much of what is directed against the identitarian idea or or nationalism" "So morality in this way can be a weapon used against us and, and I think so many of the, the, the fundamental reasons why white people aren't dominating the entire planet as as we certainly can is because of this black cloud that has been hanging over us" "This notion that our history is bad, that, that when we were in power that was just awful and immoral and, and, and and so on." "We need to have a a consciousness of morality and and to start reforming A morality willfully that that is that is life affirming and that is race affirming."

Great balance of showing compassion while sharing truth as Wes Huff responds to the question of why a good God would allow evil: "Well, that is arguably the hardest and most pressing apologetic question there is, because ultimately, the very tidy philosophical and theological answer isn't the right answer sometimes. You know, sometimes the right answer to the wrong question is the wrong answer, because I've encountered situations where someone has brought up a variation of the problem of evil to me, and I've just felt uneasy about maybe the tenor that they're coming at with the question...and asking them, 'You know, that's a great question. Why are you asking that question in particular?' and finding out once again (like the previous question related to it), they're personally hurting. And so, in that sense, I could give a tidy answer about if you're positing that something is good, you're positing that there's an objective good and evil, and if there's an objective good and evil, then you're positing an objective law, and objective law needs an objective lawgiver. So where do we find the groundwork for an objective lawgiver to begin with? Otherwise, you may not like certain things, but to say they ought not to happen is actually an ethical leap to an objective reality that you may or may not have groundwork for. But if that person is struggling because a family member of theirs has cancer, then that particular, maybe tidy, tied-up-in-a-nice-bow answer is not going to speak to them whatsoever. And so that's why that's the hardest question because there are actually very good answers to it, but often it doesn't speak to the person in front of you, because questions have questioners that sit behind them. And one of the pitfalls of my chosen field of ministry apologetics is that sometimes we give answers where we talk at people rather than with people. And there's a danger to that because the Christian faith isn't just an intellectual assent, right? It's a personal relationship. And that should also be played out in the answers that we give..."

What has always mattered most to me is getting as close to the truth as possible. You can’t make good decisions without good facts, and you can’t get good facts without being radically open-minded and willing to look at reality as it really is—not as you wish it to be. In this conversation, I talk about why grounding your thinking in evidence, clear principles, and honest reflection is the foundation for meaningful work and meaningful relationships. When you let the facts speak louder than your ego, you make better choices, build better teams, and create better outcomes. The world is constantly changing. The only way to keep up is to learn, evolve, and stay anchored in truth. That’s been my approach for decades—and it’s more important now than ever.

Steve Jobs on why everything around you was made by people no smarter than you: "When you grow up, you tend to get told that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much, have a nice family life, have fun, save a little money. But that's a very limited life." Steve believed most people live with a fundamental misconception. As he puts it: "Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact. And that is—everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you." He continues: "And you can change it. You can influence it. You can build your own things that other people can use. And the minute that you understand that you can poke life and actually something will pop out the other side—that you can change it, you can mold it." On what matters most: "Maybe the most important thing is to shake off this erroneous notion that life is there and you're just going to live in it versus embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it. I think that's very important." His perspective on why you should change things: "However you learn that, once you learn it, you'll want to change life and make it better because it's kind of messed up in a lot of ways." The shift: "Once you learn that, you'll never be the same again."

Kleiner Perkins Partner — and Thrive Global Global board member — Mamoon Hamid recently returned from Hajj, the annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca. In his own words: “Faith is really important to me, and it’s also deeply rooted in every encounter I have with every person. Part of the beauty of Hajj is that it’s two million people who come from all walks of life, with all the different skin tones in the world. Yet in front of God, we’re all one and we’re all the same. It roots you in the question: how do you treat each other as human beings? That has become a moral compass for me. Every interaction matters—whether it’s with a six-year-old child or a thirty-year-old billionaire founder. How do you treat each other? How do you give them respect, dignity, and attention in that moment in time? I’ve tried to live my life that way. Faith reminds me of it every day.” While the world provides plenty of insistent, flashing, high-volume signals directing us to climb higher up the ladder, there are almost no worldly signals reminding us to stay connected to the essence of who we are, to take care of ourselves along the way, to reach out to others, to pause to wonder and to connect to that place from which everything is possible. Thank you, Mamoon, for reminding us there is more to life than our jobs, our ambitions and our to-do lists. And that, in the end, life is shaped from the inside out.

“YOU’RE A CHRISTIAN NATIONALIST!” This is a loose term being thrown around to vilify Christians today, and we must define the term. If, by Christian nationalist, you mean someone who believes Christianity should be forced onto people by the state… then no, I’m not a Christian nationalist. If, by Christian nationalist, you mean someone who believes in no separation between Church and state… then no, I’m not a Christian nationalist. If, by Christian nationalist, you mean someone who worships a political party above God and will remain loyal to that party even if they begin rejecting God’s standards… then no, I’m not a Christian nationalist. But if, by Christian nationalist, you mean someone who loves God first, loves their nation and believes that Christianity is the best moral framework for a civilisation… then yes - I’m a Christian nationalist. “You can’t legislate morality!” All laws legislate morality. All laws declare your behaviour either as right or wrong. Morality is the one thing that should be the foundation of our laws. It shouldn’t just be up to whoever is in power to decide right and wrong - good and evil? As Aristotle famously observed that “all law rests on a necessary foundation of morality.” So the question is never WILL morality be legislated - but WHOSE morality will be legislated. What do you think is the best moral framework for a civilisation? Atheism? Secularism? Islamism? I can confidently say, I believe CHRISTIANITY is the BEST MORAL FRAMEWORK.

“There are only two religions on earth” Interesting take.. In both scenarios the true essence of ascending from oneself or one’s life is through the process of becoming closer to that which is greater than self. Either by mirroring God through your life or by removing the ego in the present moment to shift your consciousness in such a way that you share the same space with the Creator. In both of these scenarios there starts with the belief or faith that there is a something greater than “I” or self. It is a way of being, a path taken. It is not “religion” or “books” that save us, these are only guides or guardrails. But it is within our own being the ability to ascend, or create that relationship. Not through good deeds and donating to charity or receipting every Bible verse, but an internal alignment of values, a perspective that seeks Truth, Life and wholeness in ALL things, not for profit or personal gain but because it IS the way of the universe. Humans have free will, the ability to choose, and it is this choice that gives us the power, the power to change or stay the same. It all starts within.

Francis Schaffer in 1982 answering the question of what has gone wrong with evangelicals that allowed the Christian consensus to be lost in our nation: "I think a false view of spirituality, a Platonic view of spirituality which follows Plato, but certainly isn't biblical. And that is that spirituality is shut up to a small area of life...in this view, everything is worldly that isn't in this little box of spirituality. Now, as I look at the Bible, this is exactly 1000% backwards. There are certain sinful things that God tells us are sinful, and we ought to take those and set them aside...and then, everything else is spiritual." Robertson: "Elaborate on that. Everything then in the world, because you're saying that Jesus has a plan and a worldview and a purpose. He's not just God of the church; He's God of everything." Schaeffer: "Absolutely. He made it. And one day, the wonder is, Jesus is coming back and is going to be the redemption of all things...God is interested in the totality of life—art, music, literature, but also the political life. So true spirituality means the Lordship of Christ in the totality of life and not just a small part of it." Robertson: "The liberal press, particularly, would try to keep conservative Christians or evangelicals out of political life, and there's this great pressure to make fun of you when you get in politics, and they don't think it should be. And there are many Christians who say yes to the same thing. Now, what do you say to them?" Schaeffer: "Well, they're wrong." Robertson: "Christians should do what? Run for office, vote, register, get involved? What ought they to do?" Schaeffer: "Well, we ought to realize that in the viewpoint of the Scripture, life is not divided up into watertight compartments, that all of life should be lived for the Lordship of Christ. Now, what exact portion each one of us should have is according to the Lord's leading for us...but the rule to lay down is that Christians have a responsibility for the society in which they live. We're to be the salt. We're to be the light...By our silence, by refusing to be what God tells us to be, the light of this culture, the salt of the culture, we are the ones responsible before God for the mess we're in."

Thomas Nagel dismantles relativism in one paragraph. In a 1995 talk on reason, the philosopher exposes a fatal flaw at the heart of the relativist position: "Claims to the effect that a type of judgment expresses a local point of view are inherently objective in intent. They suggest a picture of the true sources of those judgments which places them in an unconditional context." In other words, the moment you say "all truth is relative," you've already made an absolute claim. Nagel sharpens this into a precise logical trap: "The judgment of relativity or conditionality cannot be applied to the judgment of relativity itself." The relativist wants to stand outside all perspectives and declare that no perspective is universal. But that declaration is itself a universal perspective. He then drives it home: "To put it schematically, 'everything is subjective' must be nonsense, for it would itself have to be either subjective or objective. But it can't be objective, since in that case it would be false if true. And it can't be subjective, because then it would not rule out any objective claim including the claim that it is objectively false." The argument is elegant in its completeness. If "everything is subjective" is an objective truth, it defeats itself immediately because it would mean at least one thing is objective. But if it's merely a subjective opinion, it has no power to challenge objectivity at all. Either way, relativism collapses under its own weight. What's striking is how often this self-refuting structure goes unnoticed in everyday debates about truth, culture, and morality. The person who says "that's just your perspective" is quietly assuming their own perspective is the correct one. Nagel's point isn't that objectivity is easy to achieve, only that abandoning it entirely is incoherent.

What Evidence Could Prove Epstein is Alive? “So you take all of these now in totality, from the passport, to the conditions in the jail cell, the trust, the escape plan, the condition of the body when he is wheeled out on the gurney, and walk your way all the way down to post-life signals that carry some weight. The option with the fewest problems of the three is that he left that cell alive. We want proof of life. We started the reward pool and put in $40,000 of our own money, and people are contributing to this reward pool. If we’re wrong, and I’m willing to be wrong, in fact, I would prefer to be wrong. I take no satisfaction being right about this. But if we’re right, that reward pool will grow and grow year over year as a long-term commitment to justice and truth.”

GOD WANTS MORE THAN JUST TO GET YOU TO HEAVEN Too many people believe the gospel is simply about going to heaven when we die. While that is gloriously true, Gary Thomas explains that if we stop there, we reduce salvation to something self-centered and future-focused. Gary and Matt talk about how Jesus and Paul preached a gospel that transforms how we live right now. It’s not only about getting to heaven—it’s about bringing heaven to earth. In this powerful conversation, Gary unpacks how cultural assumptions, subtle entitlement, and consumer Christianity can quietly erode our joy and intimacy with God. He shares how believing we “deserve” comfort or ease sets us up for disappointment and how seeing Jesus as our Rescuer fills us instead with gratitude and astonishment. You don’t have to change jobs or move across the world to live the abundant Christian life. But when your mind is renewed and your values are reshaped by Scripture, everything changes—your motivations, your purpose, your joy, and your peace. God has more for you than simply surviving until heaven. He invites you into a deeper, wiser, more purposeful life—right now.

Gary and Matt talk about how Jesus and Paul preached a gospel that transforms how we live right now. It’s not only about getting to heaven—it’s about bringing heaven to earth. In this powerful conversation, Gary unpacks how cultural assumptions, subtle entitlement, and consumer Christianity can quietly erode our joy and intimacy with God. He shares how believing we “deserve” comfort or ease sets us up for disappointment and how seeing Jesus as our Rescuer fills us instead with gratitude and astonishment. You don’t have to change jobs or move across the world to live the abundant Christian life. But when your mind is renewed and your values are reshaped by Scripture, everything changes—your motivations, your purpose, your joy, and your peace. God has more for you than simply surviving until heaven. He invites you into a deeper, wiser, more purposeful life—right now.

David Adelman on Nikola Jokic 🃏🗣️ "He takes this very seriously and it's a craft for him." "But I think in life, if this is your sole purpose, you are a sad human being. When you leave here, you have to have other interests. You have to have a real life. And I think it makes you better when you come back here because you're refreshed. I think thats part of the human experience." "He's someone to look up to. To be this successful, this good for this long, historically good, and have that outlook on life in general is something that says a lot about him. And it's a good example for all of us."

The journey of life is filled with mountaintops and valleys. Moments of joy and seasons of tears. Sometimes we mistakenly believe that following Christ means hardships are abnormal, and when suffering comes, it can get to the point where we wonder if something is wrong with us or even with God. “If God is good, then why did x, y, z happen to me?” Pause. Breathe. Take the thought captive. God never promised an easy road. He never sugarcoated the reality of living in a fallen world. In fact, when the Word became flesh, Jesus stepped into the brokenness of the world and experienced suffering, rejection, grief, temptation, loss and pain firsthand. God did not promise that we would never face trials. He promised that we would never face them alone. He promised He would walk with us. When the weight of life's struggles feels overwhelming, place your heart on His promises instead of your problems. The challenge before you may be great, but it is never greater than the God who walks beside you. Know that one day, this too shall pass. He is faithful in every season, present in every trial, and strong enough to carry you through. Surrender your own strength and lean on His. You are not alone. Hold fast to His promises. Trust His process and plans and remember that He is there with you through it all. #devotional #Scripture #God #christianliving #pray #faith #Jesus #Holyspirit

I often watch videos like this and wonder if these people understand what they are saying or if they are just saying whatever they think sounds edgy and rebellious. If children should not be taught ideas they cannot fully evaluate until adulthood, then virtually all parenting would be useless. Every parent passes on a worldview to their child every time they teach them something. The only question is which worldview. We need to stop pretending that religious and moral traditions are interchangeable simply because saying that makes people feel better. How do you know murder is wrong? The Decalogue. Objective morality comes from the Creator. The Decalogue does not invent goodness. All it does is reveal it to us in an authoritative form which is the moral order grounded in the character of the One who created it. And there are only two religions that treat the Decalogue as moral law. Judaism and Christianity. Other religions may contain individual rules that resemble individual commandments but sharing isolated moral prohibitions is not the same thing as receiving the Ten Commandments as canonical divine revelation delivered by God to Moses. Every time a parent tells a child that lying is wrong, that stealing is unjust, or that the powerful can’t exploit the weak, that parent is teaching a moral worldview. Just because they ground that worldview in consensus or autonomy doesn't mean it did not come from God. Why else is that it wasn't until Judaism and Christianity that something like for example child sacrifices to the Gods stopped? The biblical tradition produced one of history’s clearest, most sustained, and most influential theological repudiations of child sacrifice. So clearly before Scripture was revealed most people didn’t know that murder was wrong. Hebrew Scriptures contain repeated, explicit condemnations of sacrificing children, including prohibitions against giving children to Molech and denunciations of those who burned their sons and daughters as offerings. Why? Because surrounding people practiced that. And Christianity later extended that protection within the Greco-Roman world to infanticide and infant exposure. “Let children decide for themselves” is an insane proposition. Children cannot decide among moral systems they do not understand. They do not know anything, we are the ones who teach them. And anytime we teach them don't lie, cheat, and steal we are teaching them the Decalogue. Whether we call it that or not. That is also why Judaism and Christianity matter uniquely to the moral formation of Western civilization. They share the biblical creation account, the image of God, the revelation given through Moses, the Decalogue, the prophets’ demands for justice, and the conviction that rulers and ordinary people alike remain accountable to a law above human power. Christianity receives this Jewish moral inheritance; it does not replace it or create one of its own. Christians and Jews disagree profoundly over the identity of Jesus, the Messiah, salvation, and the world to come. But their basic moral vocabulary concerning life, truth, fidelity, justice, responsibility, worship, family, property, and care for the vulnerable is the same. Every parent teaches their child about reality and morality. The difference is that the religious parent is honest about the source of that morality, whereas a secular parent is not. Truth is objective, whether you chose to accept that or not. You can raise your child however you want. But pretending secular morality is neutral is just not true.

🚨Rep. Eric Burlison BOMBSHELL: "UFO's & Aliens Have challenged my FAITH in God" 👽🛸 "I am a Christian & I believe the only way to salvation is through Jesus Christ but this has challenged my faith" 😱 “I’m a skeptic by nature. I’m from the Show-Me State. But I’ve also come to the conclusion that if you stick to what the Bible actually says, this subject does not challenge my faith or conflict with a biblical worldview.” In this powerful clip, the Missouri Congressman explains why UAP disclosure and Christianity don’t have to clash when you stay grounded in actual Scripture not personal interpretations. Does this surprise you? Can faith and the possibility of other intelligent life in the universe actually coexist according to the Bible? What’s your honest take? Has this perspective strengthened or challenged what you believe? Share your thoughts below.

THE FOUNDATION OF WISDOM AND GREATNESS Every time you desire to grow in wisdom, walk in dominion, and live a life of grace and power, understand this: the foundation of that journey is your relationship with the Holy Spirit. Your relationship with the Holy Spirit is what gives relevance to everything else in your life: your Bible study, your anointing, your illumination, and your relevance. Without Him, knowledge becomes empty, and truth remains theory. There are certain realms of possibilities that will be foreign to your life until you learn to honour and engage the Holy Spirit. You may not have wealth, influence, or recognition yet, but once you begin to value His presence and fellowship, everything changes. The journey to greatness and wisdom begins when you acknowledge the value of the Holy Spirit in your life.

BAP is cautiously starting to take an interest in KIROK. A delightful development. Here he’s talking about how politics needs art. Art comes before morality and politics because art emerges directly from life itself, while morality and politics arise later as attempts to regulate, tame, or justify that life. “You can put all the new facts into peoples minds. But if they feel the same way, they will use them for their ends.” “The primary fight, I think, is on people’s moral valuations, and even more so on what precedes that, on the ground of morality in aesthetic appreciation and taste, how you form people’s tastes.” “If i can introduce to the world, new human types, new desires and ways of life, which I get from history and literature. But many intellectuals always forget this step: you have to transfer that through a modern possibility prism. And humor is your only path to jolt an audience and show something fundamentally new.” “At some point you have to make your own books, movies, videos, and so on. It can’t just be tweets and streaming. This New York thing, for example, it’s been going on for what? I’ve known about it for at least two years now. Tell me of one art piece that you know of or would watch again, whether movie or book or anything like that, that’s come out of that? I like art collectives that actually make art. That’s why I’m interested in this Dutch… I see it as a humor art collective, it’s called KIROK. I don’t know it very well yet, but I’m curious. I watched some of their movies. They’re quite funny.”
