Does anyone in the West really know what makes Russian President Vladimir Putin tick? Or, what’s motivating his deadly military incursion into Ukraine: money, power, revenge, vindictiveness, ego? And what brought the two nations to this point? Mike Slater and the specialists attempt to profile the former Soviet KGB agent and analyze his chequemate of Zelensky — all against the backdrop of current global politics, and in the context of the history of that region. Trust us, this is far more complicated than it appears.
What could be more wicked than the specter of woke ideology dictating the way medical care is administered? Postmodern critical theory has oozed into the field of medicine, and its influence is already evident: the CDC now uses the term ‘pregnant people,’ and Tech has introduced the pregnant man emoji! This is far from trivial. If the prevailing wokeness that embraces population control and blind obedience is allowed to flourish, it portends a dark future as it relates to how your doctor cares for you and your family. Mike Slater investigates the origins and cures for this pernicious prescription.
Can the second book of the Bible, Exodus, serve as inspiration for those of us feeling like slaves to current day tyrants? We need not itemize our current plagues, as they are now part of daily life.
Exodus describes how the People of Israel were freed from the bonds of centuries of slavery in Egypt. Moses was commissioned by God, who spoke to him in the form of the burning bush and gave him the colossal assignment to lead the Israelites to freedom. Repeatedly in Exodus, we witness Moses imploring Pharaoh, “Let my people go.”
During this show, Mike Slater and his special guests explore how the story of Exodus can serve as inspiration for those of us feeling like slaves to tyrants.
Mike Slater and his special guests explore the question…can God lead us to freedom again? We pray history will repeat itself and that He will show us the way to free ourselves from the bonds of modern-day servitude.
