My brother John joins me for the first time as a guest on Truthspresso. Two Mormon missionaries and their bishop visited my house on Friday. John was there to join me. We all had a delightful conversation. After the Mormons pitched their church and explained that they have continuing prophets, John and I asked some basic probing questions about the…

This episode is part 6 of examining common claims about something Donald Trump said. As we examine each trope let's ask ourselves "Did Trump really say that?!" Context is king.

The 2024 elections exceeded many expectations. Donald J. Trump is once again slated for the White House. He won in an electoral landslide and won the popular vote. He gained in almost every demographic. We look at some fiscal data and figure out why Gen Z and younger Millennials shifted the most toward Trump from 2020. Some people are really unhapp…

On the eve of world-changing elections I skim through some of the stories in the book of Daniel and ask if the United States is in a form of captivity. Will the country head more toward captivity or out of it? Can our vote steer the nation one way or another? Scriptures Referenced: 2 Timothy 2:22-26 Colossians 2:8 Isaiah 44:28 *** Please contribute…

***Warning: This episode talks about sensitive topics*** November 5, 2024 is a crucial election in the United States for many reasons. The country is polarized. Even many states are polarized. Colorado's Amendment 79 would enshrine abortion as a fundamental right into the state constitution. It would even allow the legislature to pass laws that pay…

This episode is a call to action for listeners of Truthspresso to help out a ministry suffering from hurricane Helene!

In this episode of Truthspresso I chat about Jesus and socialism. A coworker a while ago made the claim to me that Jesus was a socialist. I have certainly heard this claim before, but I figured I would address it. In part 11 we look at three parables to see if they lean more socialist or free market capitalist: The hidden treasure in the field The …

A "Christian socialist" claims that this parable proves that Jesus favors defra…

After I dropped off my sons for a church youth activity I recorded most of this episode in my car in the parking lot. I shared a few thoughts mostly about the march on Monday afternoon before the opening speeches. Women dressed as abortion pills, pro-Palestine protesters, rainbow flags, and a sign that says "Trump and J.D. Vance are weird" donned t…

As I was reading stuff online I came across an article from Roman Catholic apologist Dave Armstrong against William Lane Craig's defense of monothelitism. Armstrong blames Craig's error on Sola Scriptura and rejecting the "infallibility" of the Roman Catholic church. While I agree that Craig is wrong about monothelitism, I also believe Armstrong is…

Romans 2:13 says that "the doers of the law shall be justified." Romans 3:20 says that "by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified." Did Paul teach justification by keeping the law? Did Paul contradict himself? Chelsea returns to co-host this episode as we summarize Paul's arguments in Romans chapter 1 through 3. We believe Paul was …

Not to mention that this happened while he is currently running for President again and is the highest polling candidate. The ripple effects of this h…

In this episode I play some clips from episodes of Truthspresso in early 2020 where I predicted that the pandemic relief measures would lead to price inflation. Prepare to be amazed! ;) Do I have the spiritual gift of prophecy? No. It's just what the Austrian School of economics understood would happen. A Biblical view of government forbids monetar…

On Saturday, July 13, at a rally in Pennsylvania, former President Trump was giving an outdoor speech. Six minutes into it, gunshots were fired! The President felt one round whiz by his head. A second one bloodied his right ear. He ducked in the nick of time to avoid a third one that likely wouldn't have missed. Thankfully, he was Ok. He expressed …

Back in November and December of 2020 I released three episodes of my own sci-fi satire story of an alien invasion. It was meant to teach Biblical lessons against tyrannical monetary policies and cultural Marxism. Now you can listen to the whole story in one jumbo episode! Enjoy! Scriptures Referenced: Proverbs 28:4-5 *** Castle Rock Women's Health…

Does the account of the rich, young ruler in the gospels show that Jesus taught that we could obtain eternal life by keeping the commandments of the law to the best of our ability? It can seem that way--unless we really pay attention. Let's not gloss over the lesson Jesus taught not only to this rich, young man, but also to His disciples around Him…

Taking a few short breaks from the exhibit I carried my portable recording gear with me. I found some exhibits with hosts willing to talk for a few minutes and pitch their services to a Truthspresso audi…
