The Alisa Childers Podcast#281 Social and Emotional Learning: Coming to a School Near You, with Elizabeth UrbanowiczSocial and Emotional Learning is a widespread process that’s implemented in public schools, and in many Christian schools. It’s a positive-sounding phrase that describes a process that claims to help people develop healthy identities, manage their emotions, establish supportive relationships, and make responsible and caring decisions. That all sounds great, but in today’s episode, Elizabeth Urbanowicz joins the podcast to shine light on the dark side of this seemingly neutral tool that employs the categories of critical theory and ultimately undermine the truth of God’s Word.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is...2025-01-191h 02The Alisa Childers Podcast#280 New Thought: The Most Influential Heresy You've Never Heard Of, with Melissa DoughertyMelissa Dougherty joins the show to talk about how a widely practiced but little known movement called "New Thought" has influenced everything from the Word of Faith Movement to the Seeker Sensitive Movement to the Self-Help Industry to Progressive Christianity. Melissa spent years ascribing to various New Thought beliefs and practices such as positive affirmations, the power of positive thinking, manifesting, Christ consciousness, visualization, and believing that the vibrations and frequencies of your mind affect your reality. All the while she thought she was practicing Christianity. In today's episode, she lifts the lid off of what New Thought teaches...2025-01-121h 09The Alisa Childers PodcastThe Sabbatical Series: Lisa Gungor's Most Beautiful Thing: An Ode to RelativismDuring my Sabbatical, I wanted to post some short podcasts that only reached a limited number of people several years ago.

Words like "justice" have become weaponized and used to argue for abortion through the phrase "reproductive justice." Words like "authority" have been cast in a negative light, and words like "freedom," "truth," and "beauty" have all received modern makeovers that can leave us talking past each other. In today's podcast, Scott Allen highlights these key words and demonstrates their biblical understanding and then analyzes them in light of how they are now used in culture. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:2024-11-101h 04The Alisa Childers Podcast#273 How Progressives Exploit Christian Compassion, with Allie Beth StuckeyAllie Beth Stuckey joins the podcast to talk about how progressive Christians exploit Christian compassion in areas like race, sexuality, immigration, transgenderism, marriage, abortion, and social justice.

Progressive Christianity seeks to reframe Christianity by de-emphasizing personal salvation, biblical authority/innerancy, and by attempting to harmonize it with cultural sexual ethics. In the other hand, NAR emphasizes the miraculous and leans toward a prosperity gospel. How are both movements getting to their conclusions? Are they interpreting the Bible through the same erroneous lens? Join Alisa and Dr. Copan as they tackle this fascinating question. 2024-09-221h 04The Alisa Childers Podcast#264 God’s Goodness in the Midst of Sickness and Suffering, with Bec AndrewAlisa’s friend Bec Andrew joins the podcast to talk about her debilitating illness and chronic pain, and how God has used that in her life to lead her to better theology. ------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSSubscribe to any Good Ranchers box and you can choose a free add-on for the next 4 YEARS!Boneless Chicken Breasts or Angus Ground Beef or Applewood Smoked BaconOr Wild-Caught SalmonUse my code: ALISAGo to www...2024-09-151h 00The Alisa Childers Podcast#261 Book Claims to Teach Christians to Raise the Dead: A ReviewSeveral years ago, Andrew and Kalley Heiligenthal asked the members of their church, Bethel in Redding, California, to pray for resurrection after their two-year old daughter Olive died suddenly. The hashtag #wakeupolive was shared thousands of times on social media. After the unsuccessful attempt to raise Olive from the dead, many Christians began wondering what type of theology was really being taught at Bethel. “How to Raise the Dead” is a book by Bethel alum Tyler Johnson. The book claims that every Christian should be performing miracles, raising the dead, and achieving immortality.

One of these lies is the idea that Christians can identify themselves as LGBTQ, even if they don’t engage in sinful behavior.

On today’s podcast, Scott Klusendorf helps us understand the intellectual grounding for the pro-life convictions that most evangelicals hold. The debate turns on one key question: What is the unborn?
