They/Them/What? — How to Respond to the LGBTQ+ Agenda

This talk first goes through a brief history of the LGBTQ+ movement to show how it infiltrated the church. The rest of the talk focuses on how to respond to homosexuality and transgenderism both biblically and scientifically, and how to answer some of the most common challenges and objections. (60–90 minutes)

The Evils of Big Pharma

Starts with a brief history of how the Rockefeller foundation caused the rise of “western medicine” while nearly eradicating natural medicine. We cover the bribery and corruption within Big Pharma and how it has led to manipulated research — and then spend much of our time on how this has produced dangerous pharmaceuticals, poor medical care, and vaccine injuries. (60 minutes)

The Evils of the Food Industry

Starts with the problems and corruption in the food industry, including the “food pyramid.” We cover the dangers of sugar, seed oils, processed food, and lab-made supplements that have left a population far less healthy than previous generations. Ends with proper principles of food choices and how to return to a correct diet — including how certain foods and natural supplements can actually reverse a lot of disease. (60 minutes)

The Evils of COVID

First covers the history of COVID 2020, including planning that started several decades earlier. We then cover how the medical system mistreated COVID patients (which caused most of the deaths), the lies of masks, the suppression of alternative information and treatments (including ivermectin, vitamins, and nebulizers), and the dangers of the COVID vaccine. (60 minutes)

What Happens When the Church Gives Up Genesis

Teaches that the cultural issues of today are a direct result of evolutionism being taught in churches, and shows how to biblically and scientifically respond to the biggest cultural issues today. (60 minutes)

Lay-Level Presuppositional Apologetics

Part 1 with or without Part 2 (each 1–1.5 hr). Suitable for middle & high school students, teaching them to trust their Bibles.

Part 1 discusses the differences between evidential, classical, and presuppositional apologetics. While evidential apologetics has its place, presuppositional is foundational — and correctly done apologetics should always lead to evangelism, giving people more confidence as apologists.

Part 2 walks through how this works functionally and briefly discusses moral arguments as presuppositional. Key concepts:

  • Romans 1 teaches that all people know God exists (so we don’t carry the burden of proof).
  • Romans 2 teaches that God has written the moral law on everyone’s heart, so people also know God exists by their conscience.
Biblical Evangelism (Ray Comfort style)

Part 1 and/or Part 2. Shows how to use The Law to help people see their sin and then share the Gospel with them. (30–60 minutes)

Morality, God-given Rights, and the Proper Role of Government

Where do human rights come from? How do we know? What role does government play? This talk teaches that human rights are God-given, not government-given — as the American founders acknowledged, tied to God’s character. Since God also created government, how should we biblically view its role? How do we properly understand Romans 13 and 1 Peter 2? When do we disobey the government to obey God? The bottom line: when governments encroach on us, we obey God.

Street-Level Apologetics

What are the common questions and challenges we get from unbelievers, and how do we answer them? (Approximately 1–2 hours, depending on the topic.)

The Satanic History of Social Justice

Discusses how to view the social justice movement biblically. It is derived from Marxism, which began as an attack on God and Christianity. Walks through the history of the movement — from the beginning of time, through the Renaissance, the French Revolution, and Karl Marx in Europe — then how Marxism infiltrated our country in the early 1900s, changed the education system starting in 1905, and had captured our schools and infiltrated the churches by the 1940s.

The Problems with Social Justice

Builds on the history in the previous talk and shows how we biblically combat it today — including homosexuality, transgenderism, egalitarianism, critical race theory, intersectionality, the false gospel, and more.

The Satanic History & Problems with Social Justice (Combined)

Takes the highlights of The Satanic History of Social Justice and combines them with The Problems with Social Justice into a 1-hour abbreviated talk.

Why the Bible Is the Source of Truth

Why is the Bible true and not the Koran, the Book of Mormon, or other books? We show why the Bible is true and how to use it in defending the Bible and Christianity.

The “Problem” of Evil — Reconciling a Good God with Bad Things in This World

The biggest challenge given to Christians and Christian ministries. Most creationists say things like “God allows evil,” as if it were a passive thing that just happens — yet the Bible teaches that God ordains all things that come to pass. How do we reconcile that? This talk walks through:

  • How do we properly define evil?
  • How did evil enter the world?
  • While God ordains all things, who is actually to blame for evil?
  • Attributes such as God’s justice, mercy, and grace would never have been shown without a world that would fall.
  • Ultimately, God ordains evil for His glory and will eradicate it.
The Origin of Life

Teaches how to pose simple questions that can lead a Ph.D. evolutionary biologist to question evolutionism — enabling even middle schoolers to grasp the significant issues with the origin of life. It equips participants to engage in intelligent discussions and present irrefutable arguments even to scientists with advanced degrees.
