It's a dangerous world, and Christian persecution continues to this day. From the earliest days of the Church, martyrs have laid down their lives for the love of Christ and their fellow Christians. Join Edward Noah as he explores the death of Saint Stephen in the Acts of the Apostles, the virtue of fortitude, and the Church's teachings on martyrdom.

Waiting for anything at times can seem unbearable, especially amid difficulties, Edward explores the profound wisdom the Bible offers on this universal experience. As Christians, we are often called to wait—so how can we do it well? From the stories of Simeon and Anna to Noah, and from the creation of the world to the timeless Psalms, discover the true essence of Christian waiting and learn how to embrace it with faith and patience.

In this episode Edward Noah discusses how there's a cultural phenomenon at work that has long deviated from what God intends for us, with a recent example from this year's Grammy Awards show. Edward examines what the Bible says about modesty, respect for marriage, and the importance of how we treat our bodies in God's eyes. Later, he explores how normalizing sexual deviancy has led to the proliferation of pornography in our culture, resulting in disastrous effects.
