Why does it feel like our culture is unraveling? Why do so many Christians feel discouraged, disengaged, or unsure how to respond? In this episode of Truth Changes Everything, Darrow Miller and Naomi Smith explore the deeper worldview battle shaping today's culture and explain why recovering a biblical worldview changes everything.

Together, they unpack the sacred-secular divide that has led many believers to separate faith from everyday life, work, politics, education, family, and culture. Pulling from their latest book, Occupy Till I Come: Equipping the Next Generation to Break the Sacred/Secular Divide and Disciple Nations at the Level of Culture, they explain what Scripture teaches about Christ's lordship over every sphere of life and why the Great Commission is about more than individual conversion—it is about discipling nations.

You'll discover why Jesus' victory on the cross gives Christians confidence instead of fear, how to faithfully engage culture without retreating, and what it practically means to "occupy till He comes" in your home, workplace, church, and community.

Whether you're wrestling with cultural decline, searching for purpose, or wanting to understand what it means to live out a biblical worldview in today's world, this conversation offers hope, clarity, and practical encouragement.

What happens when students step away from the constant noise of social media, academic pressure, and cultural confusion?

In this episode, Kasey Leander sits down with Dustin Jizmejian, Senior Director of Conferences and Events at Summit Ministries, to explore why immersive Christian experiences can have a lasting impact on a student's faith, worldview, and purpose.

Abortion is one of the defining moral issues of our time—but how well do we actually understand its history, science, and cultural impact?

In this episode of Truth Changes Everything, Dr. Jeff Myers sits down with Dr. John Ferrer, founder of the Abortion Museum, to explore the facts, history, and worldview questions surrounding abortion. Rather than relying on political slogans or cultural narratives, Dr. Ferrer explains why abortion deserves a museum and why understanding its history is essential for anyone seeking truth.

Together, they discuss:

• Why abortion deserves its own museum

• The history of abortion and its connection to eugenics and scientific racism

• What science reveals about pregnancy and human development

• Common myths and misconceptions surrounding abortion

• Why abortion is more than a political issue

• How Christians can speak about abortion with both conviction and compassion

• What the church can learn from the stories of women and families affected by abortion

Whether you are pro-life, pro-choice, or simply seeking to understand the issue more thoughtfully, this conversation offers historical context, scientific insight, and a deeper discussion about human dignity, personhood, and truth.
