The CHRIST
of Christmas

UPCOMING PROGRAM: December 20, 2025

UPCOMING PROGRAM: December 20, 2025

CALIFORNIA UPDATE:

I mentioned on last week’s program that I would tell you more about our recent trip to Southern California, where our family received the “Family of the Year” award by the U.S. Tennis Association. In the opening segment of the program, I will recount some of the highlights, including a Christian Worldview Partner luncheon at Grace Community Church in Los Angeles, along with visits to KKLA 99.5 FM (who broadcasts The Christian Worldview each Saturday at 8am) and Living Waters to see Ray Comfort and Co.

Later in the program, we will discuss the issue of judges ruling against President Trump’s executive orders. In the first 100 days of the Trump administration, Democrats have been staggering as Trump and his team execute a kind of blitzkrieg against liberal policies. But it was inevitable that the left would fight back and now their strategy is apparent—use leftist judges appointed by Obama and Biden to stymie Trump’s orders.

But do unelected judges really have the authority to overturn the orders of a nationally-elected president? Has Trump overstepped presidential authority when it comes to such things as cutting government spending and deporting those who entered our country illegally, including a Columbia graduate student who calls for the destruction of Israel?

Daniel Schmid, a constitutional attorney and Associate Vice President of Legal Affairs for Liberty Counsel, an international nonprofit, litigation, education, and policy organization dedicated to advancing religious freedom, the sanctity of life, and the family, will join us this weekend on The Christian Worldview to discuss the showdown between the Trump administration and the third branch of government.

The Christian Worldview Journal is a monthly 12-page print publication which features insightful articles on current events and issues of the faith, exhorting readers to think and live in expectation of the return of Jesus Christ. It also contains ministry news and events, resource offers, listener correspondence, and more.
As of the March 2025 issue, only Christian Worldview Partners (CWPs) will continue receiving the Journal.
