In this Christmas Eve bonus episode of For God and Country, Jenny Beth Martin is joined by her father, Rev. Dr. James B. Mooneyhan, a retired United Methodist minister, for a thoughtful and deeply personal conversation about the meaning of Christmas.

Rev. Mooneyhan walks listeners through the Advent season and explains how the birth of Christ brings hope, peace, joy, and love—not as abstract ideas, but as realities meant to transform how we live each day. Drawing from Scripture, history, and decades of pastoral experience, he reflects on anxiety, evil, grief, guilt, forgiveness, and the power of a living relationship with God.

The discussion also explores why Christ first appeared to ordinary people, how faith shapes personal responsibility, and why prayer, humility, and compassion remain essential in times of cultural and spiritual confusion. This episode offers encouragement for those struggling with loss or fear and provides a timeless reminder of the hope found in Christ.

Key topics include:

• The meaning of Advent and the symbolism of hope, peace, joy, and love
• Why Christ’s incarnation matters in today’s anxious world
• How faith helps confront fear, grief, guilt, and suffering
• The role of prayer and spiritual discipline in daily life
• What Christmas reveals about God’s love for all people

This special episode is both a Christmas reflection and a call to live out faith with courage, compassion, and humility.

As we enter the final week of Advent, Jenny Beth Martin welcomes Global Methodist Minister Joel Mooneyhan for a special For God and Country devotional focused on the theme of love.

In this episode, Reverend Mooneyhan reflects on the often-overlooked role of Joseph in the Christmas story and what his actions reveal about true, Christ-centered love. Together, Jenny Beth and Joel explore how biblical love goes far beyond emotion or sentiment—it is sacrificial, protective, and willing to give up dignity for the sake of others.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Why Joseph’s response to Mary’s pregnancy is a powerful example of godly love
• How Scripture defines agape love as patient, selfless, and enduring
• What it truly means to love your neighbor—and your enemy—in a divided world
• Why Christ’s love is not earned, deserved, or limited by our failures
• Encouragement for anyone struggling with worth, forgiveness, or reconciliation

This conversation reminds us that Christmas is not just a celebration of Christ’s birth, but a call to live out His love in our daily lives—loving others as He first loved us.

In this episode of The Jenny Beth Show, Jenny Beth Martin sits down with Chris Holton, Senior Analyst and Director of State Outreach at the Center for Security Policy, for a wide-ranging conversation on Sharia law, Islamist ideology, and the growing threat of “civilization jihad” facing the United States and the West.

Chris explains why understanding Islamic source texts is critical to understanding modern jihadist movements, breaking down the Islamic trilogy—the Quran, Hadith, and Sirah—and how they form the basis of Sharia. He outlines the distinction between violent jihad and political or “civilization” jihad, warning that non-violent efforts to impose Sharia through law, culture, and institutions often pose the greatest long-term danger to constitutional freedoms.

The discussion explores:

• How Sharia law differs fundamentally from the U.S. Constitution
• Why Europe serves as a warning for what happens when assimilation fails
• The role of the Muslim Brotherhood as the political wing of global jihad
• Iran’s influence on terrorist organizations and Islamist movements
• The radicalization of college campuses and the “red-green axis” between Marxists and Islamists
• Lessons from the October 7 Hamas attacks and the global reaction that followed
• What state and local law enforcement need to combat violent jihad
• Legislative tools, including “American Laws for American Courts” and Andy’s Law

Chris emphasizes that defending freedom is not passive and that preserving constitutional rights requires vigilance, education, and cultural engagement. This episode offers a sobering but essential look at the ideological and legal challenges confronting America—and what citizens can do to protect the republic.
