Ep. 157 – America’s Storytellers — Kevin & Sam Sorbo

The stories we tell ourselves and believe shape our goals, priorities, and what the good life looks like. Throughout the Gospels, we see Jesus telling others about the truth through stories and examples. He knew that to transform individuals, they must see themselves as part of the Christian grand story of reality. 

Kevin and Sam Sorbo join Dr. Jeff to discuss the centrality of storytelling and how it profoundly influences culture and individuals. They share the tremendous work they’ve been doing in producing quality films, books, and podcasts that are unafraid to share the truth and God’s vision for a flourishing life.

Ep. 156 – The Importance of America’s Founding Documents — Jameson Broggi

For eight years, beginning when he was still a college student, Jameson Broggi worked tirelessly to get the South Carolina state legislature to pass the Reinforcing College Education on America’s Constitutional Heritage (REACH) Act. Signed into law in April ’21, the REACH ACT requires all South Carolina college students to take a three-credit-hour class on the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence and the Federalist Papers to graduate.

He and Dr. Jeff Myers discuss why he pushed so hard for the legislation and the impact it can have. “People aren’t born knowing these things,” Broggi says. “They must be taught and learned.” And when they are, as Dr. Jeff explains, the results can change the electorate in a generation. In South Carolina every year, about 21,000 college students now take a class on America’s founding documents because of Broggi’s work. And other states are currently considering similar legislation.

Ep. 155 – Why Marriage Counseling Must Focus on Mind, Body, Soul and Spirit — Glenn Lutjensi

Glenn Lutjens, a marriage and family counselor at Focus on the Family, talks with Dr. Jeff about the way in which he offers wisdom to couples rooted in caring for their bodies, minds, souls and spirits. He explains how psychiatrists like Sigmund Freud championed an approach that removed the spiritual focus from the equation and why doing so has often resulted in incomplete and insufficient assistance being offered to couples struggling in their marriages. Restoring the spiritual element to counseling couples, he explains, allows both husband and wife to embrace their God-designed roles as spouses.

Ep. 154 – Painful Insights From a War Zone (Part 2) — Dr. Jeff in Israel 

In this second episode in which he recounts his visit to Israel in the midst of its war with Hamas, Dr. Jeff Myers unpacks the complexities of subjects like just war theory and what Christians can do to help restore peace to the land where Jesus lived. He explains that Hamas attacked Israel not to achieve a military objective, but to achieve its long-stated goal to eradicate its enemy nation and notes how Israel engages the conflict from the exact opposite position: seeking only to defend itself while limiting civilian casualties when at all possible.

He points out that Gaza, ruled by Hamas, has received 15 times the aid it cost to rebuild Europe after World War II and says believers need to understand the motives of Hamas and how they are driving the brutal war or they risk being part of “a conspiracy of ignorance.”

Ep. 153 – Painful Insights From a War Zone (Part 1) — Dr. Jeff in Israel 

In this special episode, Dr. Jeff Myers recounts details from his recent trip to Israel with a group of multifaith leaders amid the nation’s war with Hamas. He explains why he was flummoxed by research that shows the rising generation knows Hamas is a terrorist group, but still sympathizes with its attack on Israel because of Palestinian grievances.

The attack on Israel is not a geopolitical conflict but a geotheological one, in which those who stand for a biblical worldview have been attacked by those who stand against God.
