“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

Why Most Christians Misunderstand The Trinity with Dr. Adam Rasmussen 37:07

לפני 5 hours37:07

37:07

Summary: In this conversation, Michael Easley and Dr. Adam Rasmussen discuss the alarming findings of a recent Barna study on the understanding of the Trinity among Americans, particularly within the Christian community. They explore the implications of these findings, the importance of teaching the doctrine of the Trinity, and the cultural influences that shape contemporary beliefs. The discussion emphasizes the need for a return to biblical literacy and the transformative power of understanding the Trinity in the life of believers. Ultimately, they offer hope for the future by encouraging a deeper engagement with scripture and a commitment to living out biblical principles in everyday life. TAKEAWAYS Only 11% of adults in America believe in the Trinity. 16% of self-identified church-going Christians embrace the Trinity. There is a dearth of teaching on the Trinity in local churches. Cultural influences are shaping the spiritual views of Americans. Many Christians are turning to secular figures for theological guidance. God loves to change culture through the church. The answer to societal ills is a return to God. We must experience God's love to effectively share it with others. ABOUT DR. ADAM RASMUSSEN Dr. Adam Rasmussen is a Fellow at the Cultural Research Center and the Dean of the College of Arts & Humanities at Arizona Christian University. He is a magna cum laude graduate of Northwestern College, where he earned a BA in history. He also holds an MA in Educational Ministries from Wheaton College, as well as a PhD in Educational Studies with a focus on leadership and administration from the Talbot School of Theology at Biola University. His research interests include biblical literacy, educational ministries, and Christian apologetics.

לפני 7 ימים44:29

44:29

Summary: In this compelling conversation, Michael Easley and Brett McCracken examine the far-reaching impact of digital technology on spiritual life, mental health, and Christian community. They delve into the addictive nature of social media and gaming, drawing on the insights of Neil Postman and George Orwell to frame today’s digital challenges. The discussion contrasts passive digital consumption with the richness of active, embodied living, emphasizing how an abundance of dopamine-driven experiences can dull the soul and contribute to a growing mental health crisis. They call Christians to navigate technology with wisdom—using it to serve their mission, not sabotage it—and to prioritize real human connection, spiritual growth through discomfort, and intentional community engagement in an increasingly digital world. Takeaways: Dystopian futures may stem from pleasure, not pain. Dopamine hits from technology can desensitize us. Digital gaming can be a form of mental gambling. The unpredictability of social media is addictive. Pain and discomfort can lead to growth. The stakes of digital engagement are high for Christians.

Summary: In this engaging conversation, Michael Easley and Dr. Tom Hobson discuss the importance of Biblical word studies, highlighting how the original Greek and Hebrew words enrich our understanding of scripture. Dr. Hobson, a theologian and author of Fun with Biblical Words , explores the nuances of over 60 biblical words, revealing how translations can sometimes obscure their deeper meanings. The discussion emphasizes the significance of context in interpreting words, with Dr. Hobson using the example of the word "trunk," which can refer to anything from an elephant's trunk to a car’s trunk, to illustrate how meaning is shaped by context. The conversation also highlights the need for a deeper engagement with scripture through the study of original languages. The conversation underscores the value of studying the Bible in its original languages, leading to a more nuanced understanding and a stronger connection with God’s word. Takeaways: Word studies can enhance understanding of scripture. Usage of words determines their meaning in context. The original languages of the Bible provide deeper insights. Language plays a crucial role in theology. The Bible should remain accessible to all readers. Accessible resources can empower individuals to engage with scripture more deeply. The joy of discovering biblical meanings can be profound and transformative.

Summary: In this conversation, Michael Easley and Dr. Calvin Beisner discuss the intersection of faith, environmental stewardship, and poverty. They explore Beisner's journey into stewardship, the founding of the Cornwall Alliance, and the importance of prioritizing human needs in environmental discussions. They also touch on the recent publication of Megan Basham's book, 'Shepherds for Sale,' which critiques the evangelical environmental movement and the influence of money in faith-based organizations.

The discussion also delves into the green agenda, exploring the implications of environmentalism from a biblical perspective, including the trade-offs involved in energy production and the impact on the poor. Takeaways: Human beings should be the top priority of all life. Poverty is a tragic reality that many have never seen. The principles of the Cornwall Declaration remain applicable today. Public figures should be held accountable for their statements. Critique should be expected in public discourse. Discipline in thought is essential for Christians. Logic is a vital tool in understanding faith. We need to pay attention to sharpening our thinking. Critical thinking skills are lost in most education. Social media contributes to a decline in reading. Reading a real Bible is essential for understanding scripture. Engaging with literature enhances critical thinking. The green agenda often overlooks human welfare. Trade-offs exist in environmental policies. Fossil fuels are crucial for modern life. Rising energy costs disproportionately affect the poor.

47:17

Sherman Brand joins Michael Easley for a compelling conversation about faith, the Holy Spirit, and the transformative power of God in the Christian life. Sherm shares his journey of overcoming apathy, learning to trust God's provision, and finding purpose in suffering. Together, they explore the necessity of dependence on God, the depth of His love as a Father, and the vital role of community in spiritual growth. Their discussion touches on the ongoing struggle with sin and shame, the call to live out faith through action, and the daily challenge of trusting God. They also highlight the importance of confession and forgiveness, contrasting the dangers of legalism with the freedom found in God's grace. Ultimately, their conversation points to the believer's identity in Christ and the power of authentic community in fostering healing and lasting transformation. Takeaways: The Lord loves to do the dishes with you. We underestimate the beauty of Christ living in us by His Holy Spirit. Apart from Christ, we can do nothing. We should not go by feelings in our spiritual journey. The cares of this world can choke the word and hinder growth. God wants to take care of us and provide for our needs. Suffering is often included in our growth process. He wants to live His life through us, guiding our actions. The term 'co-worker' in Romans highlights the importance of collaboration in faith. Finding God's work and participating is essential for spiritual growth. Trusting God is foundational for navigating life's challenges. Confession is a vital part of the Christian life, leading to forgiveness. Legalism can be more harmful than outright sinfulness. Shame is a tool of the enemy, not of God. Our identity as children of God is paramount and should be valued. Community is crucial for healing and accountability in faith. We often underestimate the power of God's grace in our lives. Living in constant awareness of our sin helps us rely on God's strength. Resources mentioned: Serve As a Verb Podcast Watch the highlights and full version of this interview on our Youtube channel .

Speaking Truth to Power: Stephen Mansfield 37:42

לפני 7 weeks37:42

37:42

Michael and Stephen discuss the significant influence of the Episcopal Church on national religious ceremonies in the United States, questioning why a declining denomination holds such power. They explore the implications of speaking truth to power, particularly in the context of religious leaders addressing political figures. The discussion also delves into the challenges and responsibilities of Christians in politics, emphasizing the need for integrity and authenticity. Finally, they consider potential changes to how national religious events are conducted, advocating for a more inclusive representation of diverse denominations. Takeaways: The Episcopal Church's influence on national ceremonies is disproportionate to its size. There is a need for a broader representation of denominations in national religious events. Speaking truth to power can be a double-edged sword, requiring wisdom and discernment. Christians in politics face unique challenges and must navigate their faith in a self-promoting environment. The importance of caring for the underprivileged is a common ground for many religious leaders. Historical context is crucial in understanding the current religious landscape in America. The conversation highlights the need for integrity among Christian leaders in political spaces. There is a call for a shift in how national religious ceremonies are conducted to reflect a more diverse representation. Mansfield emphasize the importance of teaching history rather than erasing it.
