We're joined by RuthAnn Zimmerman on this episode. A former Old-Order Mennonite, RuthAnn shares her journey to Jesus, their exit from their community, their entry into the "modern world," and how they've cultivated the life they feel God called their family to. We talk about family, parenting, nutrition, homesteading, work ethic and how her story is not her identity... and neither is yours. If you're seeking some peace, you'll truly appreciate this interview. GUEST: RuthAnn...

We're joined by Christian Watson of 1924 US. Through 1924 US, Christian gives life to brands through his art, creates product, and tells the stories that need to be told through stunning visuals and artwork. Though Christian has a large following with a diverse set of beliefs and values, he doesn't shy away from standing firm in his own beliefs in everything that he does. He blends his values into his art, and in this conversation we go deep into politics, the election, family, art and...

If Christians don’t engage in politics who exactly are we leaving law making up to? Do we want America to continue to move away from God’s design, or do we want to assist in bringing the Kingdom to the culture? Dr. Frank Turek takes us through a Christian perspective on Christian involvement in politics and voting. We also discuss how legislation follows morality, how morality follows legislation, and a host of other difficult and important questions about Christian beliefs. GUEST: Dr....

Organ donation is always a universal good... right? This conversation is the type that has the potential to completely challenge previously held beliefs. Are brain-dead patients TRULY brain dead? Are the organs being harvested from someone who REALLY has no life left in them? Heidi Klessig, MD, tells us her own story and how she came to have her own beliefs challenged, and explains why she is now dedicated to the informed consent of all registered organ donors, those considering donating...

Just The Inserts isn’t anonymous anymore… today we’re introducing Alexandra to you, and you’re getting to see her face for the first time. This is our second interview with her (first episode linked below).

"The problem was that I had a relationship with a device." This conversation with Joey Odom of Aro is hard-hitting. We discuss some difficult statistics about average phone usage, the dependency we have, and the impact it's having on the next generation, the relationships we're in, and our own souls. It is also filled with hope and clear actionable steps so that you don't stay stuck and can make a change in your life for the good of those you love. This is worth a listen for absolutely...

In this episode, Cecily and Rita sit down to chat about entering new seasons, the start of the homeschool year, and the true and unique blessing of parenting in this cultural moment. We discuss the importance of protecting which memories you hold onto (hopefully they're yours!), the importance of getting OUT of the echo chamber, equipping people with information and then allowing the freedom and grace for them to make their own choice, and of course, we get in some talk on AI. In this...

There's a growing movement within the Health Freedom community to stop participating in elections. Leah Wilson's daily work with Stand for Health Freedom daily allows her to powerfully articulate on the topic. She sees the results of voting/voter involvement in a way others who are casually  involved may not. We'll discuss: The power of involvement in local elections but also, do national elections still matter? Common repeated statements surrounding voting... they're catchy, but are...

Katy Faust is back on the podcast for the 3rd time to discuss her new collaborative book, Pro-Child Politics: Why Every Cultural Economic and National Issues Is a Matter of Justice for Children. *conversation may not be suitable for young ears* This conversation is filled with passion and conviction as Katy describes how politics can either support or destroy the most vulnerable- children.

This conversation is all about answering your questions about the Christian faith, Christians, and the church! Bringing his unique perspective as a Canadian who re-located to the USA in 2021, Mark Clark takes the questions you submitted. Starting off with a comparison of culture (both church culture and the broader culture) in the USA and Canada, we then jump into your questions. Questions like these (and many more!): Why do Christians believe once saved always saved? How can the church...

Investors with trillions of dollars and nothing to do with farming could end up controlling how food is produced start, to finish. More Bill Gates shenanigans... the guy will develop a vaccine for absolutely everything. Is oil actually a finite resource? Everything we have currently was developed from resources we've always had... think about it and more from White Oak Pastures. This final episode of our 5 part series on Food Supply solidifies the complexity of the topic as we hash out our...

Today we talk to the owners of 2 dairy farms - a raw milk micro dairy in Tennessee & an organic dairy farmer and cheese processor in BC, Canada. We invited a conventional dairy farmer to add perspective, but they declined. There’s a lot of buzz on the internet about raw milk but that’s not the whole story. We explain pasteurization, homogenization, nutritional value, how cows are fed & we discuss hormone use. In this series, we’re taking you deep into the complicated world of your...

You’ve likely heard that Bill Gates is the largest farmland owner in the USA. That creates a lot of buzz and, quite frankly, it scares people. But that’s usually where the conversation ends. In this episode, we cover the barriers to people actually farming the land and hanging onto it. Today we talk to Natasha Cox, the regional Vice President of farm Credit mid-America, Rita’s husband, Levi Rogers, who is a 6th generation farmer, and Mary Miller a United States Congresswoman. We get into...

Is the information even available for you to make that determination? And as for the information that is available to you - is it accurate or deceptive?...

We’re taking you deep into the complicated world of your food supply. Whether it’s a steak, salad or slice of bread… there’s a lot happening in the process of getting what you eat to your table and you should know about it.  Regenerative farming is a catching phrase. It sounds wonderful but what does it mean? And walked out, what does it actually look like for both farmers and consumers? In this opening episode we first talk to Jason Rountree, a professor of Animal Science at Michigan State...

4 years ago, the world turned upside down… and it hasn’t really righted itself. We take a walk down memory lane and reminisce about some of the absolute CRAZINESS that happened over the course of “the Covid era.” Covid policy is still impacting people, as you’ll hear in this episode. We welcome back guest, Elizabeth Liu, and she tells us about the latest battle they’re fighting… no longer from China, but from Singapore as she fights to get her and her family back to her home country of the...

With 20 years of military experience, 3 years in the CIA and now the CEO of Fieldcraft Survival, Mike was exactly the right person to talk to about supporting the military while remaining realistic about the state of politics and forever wars. We also talk about raising boys to be men, what being a man even means, and, of course- PREPAREDNESS. GUEST: Mike...

And THEN, we talked about gardening, being able to independently feed your family, GMO seeds, the “horrible” carbon emissions of the...

We’re chatting with Melissa Kupsch of Remedy Collective, known as @thathomeopath on Instagram. While homeopathy might be a bit unknown for us prior to this conversation, I believe we can all agree that we need alternatives to the sick care system most people are trying to function in. Melissa tells us the personal reason she got started in homeopathy, the foundation of what it is, and how she’s helping people apply it on their journey towards health. Be sure to check out Melissa’s...

Are our human desires too strong? Or too weak? Are the things that feel like drudgery able to turn into something that we love and find satisfaction in? What is the ultimate reward we are seeking, and are we getting distracted by the things that are just pointers to that ultimate reward? Why do we all desire to be praised? You may be relieved to hear that that desire stems from something much more pure than it often manifests. And there are no ordinary people… there are only immortals. Choose...

It’s a familiar story, industry lobbies government to put profits ahead of safety. Though we know lead is not safe it can still be found in our dishes, cookwear, kids toys, the soil … everywhere.
