The Lindsay Clancy Case:
When Empathy Overshadows the Victims

Guest: MISSY ROEPNACK

CURRENT PROGRAM: October 3, 2026

CURRENT PROGRAM: OCTOBER 3, 2026

GUEST: GREG GIFFORD, author, Lies My Therapist Told Me

The statistics are staggering: one in five people in America have been diagnosed with a “mental illness.” One in six people are taking powerful psychotropic medications, such as anti-depressants, anti-anxieties, and stimulants. Many Christians have been trapped in the vortex of the “mental health industry” as well.

And here’s the troubling part in the majority of the cases: wrong diagnoses lead to wrong and harmful treatments.

Our guest this weekend is Greg Gifford. He is the chair of the School of Biblical Studies at The Master’s University, a fellow at the Fortis Institute, and author of the compelling new book, Lies My Therapist Told Me: Why Christians Should Aim for More Than Just Treating Symptoms. 

He will explain the important distinction between the immaterial mind and the material brain and how God’s Word is all-sufficient to renew the mind to think and live for God’s glory.

From beloved Christian counselor, professor, and podcaster Greg Gifford comes a bold critique of the mental health establishment. Therapy can backfire and fail, but Christ offers more.

TOPIC: The Psychological Manipulation of Critical Race Theory

GUEST: KATHERINE KERSTEN, senior policy fellow, Center of the American Experiment Contrary to what the mainstream media and some Evangelicals are saying about Critical Race Theory (CRT)—that it’s a “bogeyman” (that it’s made up, nothing to fear)—Christians who are paying even half attention know and see how this insidious ideology that pits [...]

TOPIC: The Cause and Effect of Critical Race Theory Part 2 of 2

Critical Race Theory (or Critical Theory more broadly beyond race) is now the de facto worldview of the political left, academia, mainstream media, corporations, and even the military. This worldview sees everything through the Marxist prism of oppression, with white, male Christians being the source of injustice and inequality in society. CRT [...]

TOPIC: The Cause and Effect of Critical Race Theory Part 1 of 2

Every cause produces an effect. Drop a pebble in a pond (cause) and small ripples form and travel outward (effect). Likewise, ideas are causes that produce effects. Good ideas produce good effects and bad ideas bad effects. Big, unbiblical ideas are not like dropping a pebble into a pond but rather a [...]

TOPIC: How to Think and Live in an Anti-Truth Culture

GUEST: ROBERT KNIGHT, author and columnist, Washington Times Satan and unredeemed humanity have always been at war with the truth. This is because God is the source of truth, and thus to try to escape accountability to God and persuade others to do the same means one must believe and propagate lies. [...]

TOPIC: Why Do Christian Leaders Compromise?

GUEST: TRAVIS ALLEN, Senior Pastor, Grace Church, Greeley, CO Last week, we discussed how well-known Evangelical pastor Rick Warren and the church he leads—Saddleback—had, for the first time, ordained three women to be pastors. Warren called it an historic night and prefaced his message by saying everything they do is based on [...]
