Politics By Faith w/Mike Slater

Senator Lindsey Graham passed away suddenly at the age of 71. What should we say about a politician's passing if we disagree with them on many issues? What can we learn from the life, and death, of prominent US Senators?

Democrat Governor Tim Walz went out of his way to protect this child molesting illegal alien from deportation. Why would he do such a thing? How could anyone defend this? We need to be a society that is much more severe against this sin and the people who enable it.

The One Big Beautiful Bill last year made some reforms to food stamps. It's now been a year, and the Washington Post searched for some sob stories about how Trump is cruel and awful. But what does the Bible say about food stamps?

We've been told since the 90's that when it comes to elections, "It's the economy, stupid". I believe we have it backwards. If we seek first the most important things, a thriving economy will follow.

Bryan Johnson is a super-rich tech bro who thinks he can biohack his way to immortality. He was just diagnosed with an incurable disease. We can criticize his foolishness, but the truth is, we aren't much different from him.

Communists hate the rich (until they become the rich). Elon is the first trillionaire in the world, but he's not the first rich person the communists have tried to tear down. But why do they hate the rich? It's not for economic reasons.

The President mentioned communists winning elections across America in all three of his speeches over Independence weekend. There are many arguments to make against Marxism. We are going to focus on the Biblical truths to take down the Third World Marxists.

You can’t remove the Bible from life and still claim to follow God—faith and scripture have always been inseparable in shaping belief and morality. For generations, ideas of God, liberty, and human purpose were deeply connected in the way America understood itself and its future. Mike Slater examines how the Founding Fathers consistently referenced scripture and how that worldview shaped the nation’s foundation.

America’s founding story has been heavily filtered, with key evidence of its Christian foundation often left out of the mainstream narrative. The historical record, the Founding Fathers’ beliefs, and the early documents that shaped the nation point to a foundation that’s frequently overlooked today. Mike Slater and William Wolfe lay out what’s been omitted—and why it reshapes how America’s past and future are understood.

America’s Christian roots shaped its laws, institutions, and culture in ways that are impossible to separate from the nation’s founding. After generations of cultural drift, many are asking whether the Church still has a role to play in shaping the future of American society. Mike Slater and Dr. Hunter Baker examine America’s Christian foundation, the Church’s influence on public life, and whether it can reclaim its place in the culture.

America’s founding wasn’t just political—it was deeply rooted in faith and a belief in something greater than government itself. As the nation approaches its 250th year, questions about its original purpose and spiritual foundation are being brought back into focus. Mike Slater explores the role of God in America’s founding and what reconnecting with those roots could mean for the country today.

The era of the "tolerant" Christian has to be over. We can have no more tolerance for sin. We have to be as shrewd as snakes amongst the wolves.

The definition of manhood is being rewritten in real time—socially, culturally, and spiritually. A growing divide is forming between modern ideas of masculinity and the biblical standard that once shaped generations. Mike Slater and Pastor Joby Martin explore identity, responsibility, and what it truly means to be a man today.

As screens become more influential than faith, many young Americans are being pulled further from the values that once anchored their lives. Technology is shaping the next generation in ways few parents fully understand. Mike Slater and Colin Elliott explore how the internet is reshaping the beliefs, priorities, and values of America’s youth.

America is more divided than ever—socially, culturally, and spiritually. What’s driving that divide raises urgent questions about whether a return to foundational Judeo-Christian values is the key to rebuilding unity in a fractured nation. Mike Slater and Pastor Allen Jackson discuss faith, identity, and the path forward for America.

The battle for our children’s hearts and minds is shaping the future of our country in real time. As culture grows louder and traditional values face new challenges, the questions surrounding faith, family, and the next generation have never been more important. Mike Slater and Auron Macintyre explore where these worlds collide and discuss what it means for parents, believers, and America in 2026.

It's been 4 years since Roe V Wade was overturned, and there are more abortions than ever. Its time we take this seriously in America. God's judgment is on us.

These Third World Marxists are a new level of extreme within the Democratic party. Do you think they'll stay isolated to NYC and a few other major cities, or are these Marxists going to infect the entire country?

Democratic Senate candidate in Texas, of all places, said he "hates Christianity". This is no surprise. He also has no idea about the historical importance of the 10 Commandments to America or the importance of the 10 Commandments to everyone in the world.

This 9-0 Supreme Court decision is undoubtedly a win for the 2nd Amendment. But is it good for America?

We can't ever forget the insanity of the COVID era. The ringleader of it all was Dr. Fauci, who Tulsi Gabbard has proven to be a liar once again. The Bible is clear; there is never a good lie.

Was Jesus a weak man—or was He the strongest man who ever lived? Christ didn't just teach truth; He conquered sin and offered redemption to those who fall short, including fathers. Mike Slater and Kyle Thompson reflect on what it means for men to lead their families from a place of grace, purpose, and victory.

The most important job in the world doesn't come with a paycheck—it comes with a purpose. Strong fathers build strong families, strong communities, and a stronger nation. Mike Slater celebrates the mission, responsibility, and joy of fatherhood.

I love when pagans criticize Christians for not being "Christian enough" or the right type of Christian that they would prefer. Obviously, don't listen to them, but what does the Bible say about the words we speak and the tone we should have?

What do mass immigration, soft-on-crime policies, and woke churches all have in common? All of these are led by woke women. God spoke against this clearly, and we thought we knew better.

The Rape Gang Inquiry report was released in England. It's more horrendous than anyone could imagine. They believe over 250,000 white British girls were trafficked in England. These crimes were committed by Muslim men, again, IN England. Every story they told of how this happened followed the same 3-step outline.

The president hosted an incredible event in the White House. If you had the microphone for 30 seconds to talk to over 100 million people, what would you say?

We are told Americans don't like soccer. I'm not sure that's true. The first World Cup game had more viewers than any game in the NBA Finals. Either way, it's interesting how much God uses sports to describe how we should live our life on earth. Run your race, receive the prize, and whatever you do, don't beat the air.

Is America great? Mike Slater and Steve Deace discuss. Steve also promotes his new book, Why Independence Day? Plus, Mike dives into a short story that has a lot of meaning to America today.

America is celebrating it's 250th birthday. Despite what you may have been taught in school, it is crystal clear that God was behind the foundation of America. Want proof? Mike Slater chats with American University professor Daniel Dreisbach, who lays out the evidence.

What is your policy on what to do when you see a homeless person on the sidewalk asking for money? One of the problems with allowing drug addicts and the mentally ill to live on the streets is it makes us callous to human life. What does the Bible say we should do about this?

With the attempted beheading in Belfast and other heinous crimes from 3rd world migrants here and in Europe, mass migration is again coming to the forefront. The perception is that mass migration is cruel and terrible. But the truth is, government-led mass deportations are the moderate option. We should take this action while we still can.

A man from Sudan tried to behead a man in a street in Belfast, Northern Ireland. When will it be enough for the people of Europe and America? When will we reverse this Third World migration? What does the Bible say about this?

Will you see Steven Spielberg's new movie? Do we need more things in our culture causing us to question the existence of God? Luke 19 has some insight into what we should do with Spielberg's offer.

We once had a God-fearing society. Then the pagans came in and threw God out of our culture, but thought they could keep all the good stuff. They were wrong. And one of those things that we lost was the ability to dispense justice through a jury system. Unfortunately, Pagan tribalism killed the jury system in America.

Mike Slater chats about America's founding with Eric Metaxas and how Christianity ties into it all, as well as the battle taking place against it. Plus, Billy Hallowell joins Mike Slater for a thoughtful discussion about the return of American va

Mike Slater chats with Seth Gruber, author of The Last Stand, about American values, Christian values and the forces working against them.

A popular YouTuber announced that they murdered their baby because a genetic test determined their baby might have Down Syndrome. What should the pro-life response be to this family?

Have you ever heard of the Black Robe Regiment? I haven't either, but when you hear what the Black Robe Regiment meant to America 250 years ago compared to what we're working with today, it makes sense why we're not where we need to be.

Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old White British man, was murdered by a 23-year-old man of Pakistani heritage. The Pakistani man told police Nowak committed a racism. Police arrested Nowak as he was dying from stab wounds to the chest. Nowak said, "I can't breathe," but police didn't care. Don't expect any George Floyd-like response this time. 

We would never have a parade honoring any other sin. Why does homosexuality get a pass? I wonder if there's ever been a more successful propaganda effort to change our culture than the gay activists. Their run needs to end.

California is voting in its primary. Can the two Republicans come out on top of the governor's race and make the Democrats' plan for power backfire? And can Spencer Pratt make the top 2 in the mayor race and continue his campaign until November? Either way, he has the perfect attitude, which we all need to have in everything we do in our lives.

In this interview, Mike Slater and Colin Elliott discuss Colin’s personal testimony of faith and transformation. He shares how a difficult season in his life led him to wrestle with suffering, judgment, and grace, ultimately shaping his understanding of God. The conversation explores how hardship can become a turning point toward meaning and belief.

Mike Slater is joined by Gad Saad to discuss his new book and explore the idea that modern Western societies may be becoming “too nice” for their own good. Saad argues that well-intentioned kindness can be exploited and may be contributing to cultural and political imbalances. The conversation digs into how these dynamics show up in academia, media, and public policy.

In this interview, host Mike Slater sits down with classicist and author Spencer Klavan to explore the origins of American Christianity and the cultural forces that shaped its early development. They discuss how theology, politics, and history intersected in the formation of American religious identity. The conversation challenges common assumptions and uncovers surprising layers of influence behind one of America’s most defining traditions.

Mike Slater sits down with Richard C. Lyons to unpack what “the pursuit of happiness” really means beyond the common clichés. They explore how modern interpretations often miss the original intent behind the phrase and what it looks like in practice today. The conversation dives into practical insights on fulfillment, purpose, and how to rethink happiness in everyday life.

I know we're not electing an elder of our church, but the blasphemy coming from the Democrat candidate for Senate in Texas is really something else. Let's debunk a few of his greatest hits.

Multiple graduation speakers spoke about the wonders of Artificial Intelligence. They got booed by the graduating seniors. I was surprised, but encouraged, by their reactions. The Pope also came out and spoke about the dangers of AI, but I want to make sure we have the right concerns at the forefront. 

We give a humble tribute to 13 service members who we add to the list of Americans who gave their lives fighting for this country. We also go over Rudyard Kipling's poem "Recessional" on this Memorial Day.

Scripture calls for us to resist the devil so that he will flee from us. So how do we do that? Mike Slater goes through five ways and then focuses in on another big one. Worship. Sean Feucht is the founder of Let Us Worship. He joins Mike to discuss worship and his new book No Turning Back.

Who is the Devil? Culture says one thing, but the bible says another. Mike Slater dives into the scripture alongside Pastor Tom Ascol, President of Founders Ministries.

Someone made up a new euphemism, the "teen takeover"! Also known as a "riot". How do we stop these? Should we arrest the parents? The Trump Administration thinks so, and can do it in DC.

Jeff Bezos makes the point that his for-profit companies benefit people more than his charity ever could. He's right, but we can't fall into the athiestic thinking that either of these things are what matters most. We can't lose sight of the most important thing in this world, which many are giving away to the lowest bidder.

Thomas Massie lost his congressional seat. This is 3 races in a few weeks where the Trump endorsed candidates beat the incumbents. What does this mean for MAGA moving forward? And, why libertarianism isn't the same as being conservative.

The Democrats need an issue to beat the Republicans on, and to our shame, their most successful issue ot get out the vote is killing babies. With the recent Supreme Court action on abortion, get ready for this to be back on the top of the news. We need to be ready with the truth.

My wife's favorite country singer is Eric Church, and his commencement address at UNC is proof of why he's so great. Sit back and enjoy his description of the 6 strings of a guitar and the 6 pillars of life.

Andrew Klavan converted from Judaism to Christianity years ago. He joins Mike Slater to discuss his conversion, as well as the war on Christianity taking place in America today.

There is a war on Christianity taking place across the world right now. Mike Slater dives into that war and explains exactly what is going on. Mike then brings on Pastor Mark Driscoll, who has a message for American church leaders.

The left is infected with suicidal empathy. Many conservatives are trying to find the right amount of empathy, but I argue that empathy isn't even a virtue we should be striving for. 

Some states argue that property taxes are burdensome and unfair, particularly for seniors and those no longer benefiting from public education. What does the bible say?

As Trump and his team are headed to China to meet with Xi, we have another Chinese spy in America exposed. Americans would not believe how deep the infiltration of Chinese communists is in our government. 

Spencer Pratt is running for mayor of LA. He's rising in the polls and has a few weeks left to convince the 40% of undecided voters that he is the person who can make LA livable again. His messaging has been spot on.

Is the hantavirus going to turn into another global pandemic? Why did we let them off the boat and why are they coming to Nebraska?

You'd think Disney would take extra precautions to check their employees, especially foreigners working with kids. But, it is Disney after all. But could there really be people against arresting and deporting these foreign pedophiles? What do we do with these people?

Trump warned the RINOs of Indiana. It was a risky bet from Trump, but he crushed the establishment of Indiana. How did this happen? Why did Trump do this? And what will the consequences of this be beyond Indiana?

Rudy didn't even die yet and the Left was already writing nasty obituaries. You can't count on your legacy being accurately written by the media and people who hate you. Our obituaries won't be written by CNN, so how should we think about leaving a legacy? What does the Bible say about legacy?

Gas prices are too high. Don't think the Democrats are the solution to this problem, they'd prefer gas to be $12 a gallon! The Bible can offer us wisdom on how to make it through this time.

There are more foreign scammers taking advantage of Americans than ever before. I got tricked recently! Some scammers took some of my money. Today we share some tips to make sure you or your loved ones aren't tricked by these sinners.

There have been many attempts on Trump's life. Mike Slater breaks them down and dives into the most recent one with Mike Baker of the President's Daily Brief podcast.

The DOJ released a 564-page report on the anti-Christian bias from the Biden administration. Today, we'll focus on one action they did that prevented Christians from being "doers of the Word".

Finally, and you could tell Justice Thomas has been waiting for this moment for 30 years, the Supreme Court ruled that gerrymandering districts just for black people is racist. Republicans could gain 12 seats from this decision, but more importantly, it leads us away from being a racist society.

The left keeps making the claim that people on the right commit more crimes than people on the left. Is that true? No, it's not, and I prove it and then answer the question Pilate posed to Jesus, "What is truth?"

We're being told that there is more right-wing violence than left wing vilence. Is that true? And does rhetoric cause violence? And if so, does that mean we can't speak the truth anymore?

The president says that only someone who is sick in the head would attempt to do something like this. And yes, of course, they are sick in the head, but according to the Bible, the source of that sickness comes from somewhere else.

Pastor Doug Wilson recently appeared on Piers Morgan, where he clashed with Tim Miller and Wajahat Ali. Wilson joins Mike Slater to continue the conversation on the Politics By Faith podcast.

The head coach of the Patriots and the NY Times NFL reporter have been caught in adultery. Adultery, it seems we've forgotten, is one of the 10 Commandments. This sin isn't met with the proper condemnation it deserves, and I think I know why.

It turns out the Southern Poverty Law Center was giving money to neo-nazi groups so they would go to neo-nazi things and then the SPLC could fundraise off of the rise of neo-nazi groups and call you a neo-nazi. Well done to the FBI for uncovering this fraud. But a lot of damage was done, including the "Greatest Hoax Ever Told".

Someone committed an abomination in Louisiana. But this could have been prevented many years ago. Unfortunately, many people have a misaligned compassion not rooted in truth. Fortunatly, t's not too late to save more lives.

The NY Times featured two young people who took drastic and shameful lengths to avoid paying their student debt. The Bible addresses this issue.

I don't remember a time the NY Times admitted they were wrong about something. I'm ashamed to admit, I was also wrong on this issue. It's time we change course. And if it's applicable to you personally, it's time to examine yourself.

An American missionary, Alex Barbir, shares with Mike Slater what he witnessed firsthand while serving overseas. His account sheds light on a hidden crisis affecting Christian communities around the world.

Who was John MacArthur? Mike Slater dives into the legendary legacy of the great American preacher.

The Mayor of NYC has a new tax on rich people in NYC. It, of course, will cause even more rich people to leave the city, but he doesn't care. We compare this policy with Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, "Blessed are the poor in spirit."

The Senators are back from their much-needed vacation. They work so hard that they needed a good two weeks off. Is the sarcasm thick enough? Why are Republican Senators the worst? They can't pass obvious legislation like the SAVE Act or even pass a funding bill. It's because they haven't followed Jesus' message in Mathew 5:38

After the Pope criticised Trump's actions in Iran, the president said the Pope should focus more on being Pope and not a politician. What exactly was the Pope's criticism of Trump? And when the Pope referenced Isaiah 1, surely he wasn't suggesting Trump is anything like King Ahaz, right?

It's been an open secret among Democrats that women should stay away from Congressman Eric Swalwell. So why are all of these accusations coming out now? And what can we learn from Numbers 17?

Our astronauts will be traveling at 25,000 mph and the capsule will be at 5,000 degrees. NASA has admitted that the head shield has "shortcomings". But going forth and trusting God is the American way.

If the president says he's going to bomb Iran, the left says he's a war criminal. When he doesn't bomb Iran, the left says he's a coward and always chickens out. You can't help the Trump deranged. But we can learn from 1 Samuel 15 on the importance of following God's Word completely.

Pastor John Amanchukwu joins the podcast to discuss whether politics belong in the church.

The president said if Iran doesn't surrender, we're going to bomb them to the Stone Age. Should we?

Pam Bondi is the second cabinet member fired after Kristi Noem. What does this say about Trump's presidency? And how should we look at this after just celebrating Resurrection Sunday?

Pastor Gary Hamrick joins Mike Slater to explore the resurrection of Jesus and what it really means for our lives today. If this event is true, it doesn’t just shape history—it changes everything about truth, hope, and the way we see the world. This is more than a story… it’s a claim that demands a response.

In this compelling discussion, Tim Chaffey joins Mike Slater to examine the evidence surrounding the resurrection of Jesus. Addressing common doubts and objections, they explore historical, philosophical, and biblical perspectives that challenge skepticism and invite deeper consideration.

A player on the Chicago Bulls took the proper Biblical stance against these foolish Pride events at major league sporting events. For this stance, he was fired. What will be interesting to see is how many other athletes come to his defense.

Progressives aren't "for" anything. They are against God's Word. This manifests in pretty wild ways, like the story of Lindy West. But lest we get too prideful, we need to realize the lessons of John 12.

This is a timely and direct look at why biblical manhood still matters—and what’s at stake if it’s ignored.

Stephen C. Meyer dives into his influential book Return of the God Hypothesis, arguing that groundbreaking discoveries in cosmology, physics, and biology—such as the universe's origin, fine-tuning for life, and the coded information in DNA—provide strong scientific evidence for a purposeful intelligent designer rather than purely materialistic explanations. Meyer challenges the notion that science and faith are inherently at odds, showing how modern evidence is actually reviving the God hypothesis as the most reasonable inference from the data. This discussion ties directly into the themes of the upcoming documentary The Story of Everything, offering viewers a clear, thought-provoking case for why science may be pointing back to a divine mind behind it all.

Western culture didn’t collapse overnight—it was hollowed out, piece by piece. What was once shaped by Scripture, natural law, and a shared moral imagination has been replaced by a new orthodoxy that celebrates confusion, mocks restraint, and calls evil good. What we call “progress” is often just the oldest rebellion in fresh packaging. The idols have new names, the altars glow with screens, and the priests wear lab coats or rainbow pins, but the script is ancient: exchange the truth of God for a lie, worship the creature rather than the Creator, and call it freedom.
