    Katharine Hayhoe: Talking About Christian Climate Action Is a Gospel Issue
    Jan 8 2026
    From Pews to Planet: Faith-Based Steps to Better Creation Stewardship In this episode of the Good Faith Podcast, host Curtis Chang and guest Dr. Katherine Hayhoe—Chief Scientist at The Nature Conservancy and a committed evangelical Christian—explore why Christians and churches should care about climate change as a biblical "love your neighbor" issue rooted in justice for the poor and vulnerable. Hayhoe explains how political polarization and "solution aversion" fuel climate skepticism. She introduces the "Six Americas" framework and offers practical guidance for having hopeful, effective conversations that connect climate action to what people already care about. Dr. Hayhoe offers actionable next steps for individuals and congregations—like sharing solutions, starting church initiatives, and leading with hope instead of doom—so Christians can faithfully steward God's creation. 05:23 - Dr. Hayhoe's Faith Journey and Science 07:12 - Experiencing Creation's Vulnerability 09:17 - Is Climate Change a Justice Issue? 10:42 - Encountering Christian Climate Skepticism 18:06 - Christian Organizations and Climate Action 24:35 - Connecting Climate to Personal Values A 28:23 - Navigating Difficult Conversations 33:31 - What Are the "Six Americas" of Climate Attitudes? 43:02 - Scientific Evidence and Human Impact 48:15 - Focusing on Solutions, Not Just Science 50:03 - What Is One Action Step for the Unsure Christian? 53:00 - What Is One Action Step for the Committed Christian 55:00 - Are There Practical Church-Based Climate Actions?

  • Nancy French's Joyful Grandparenting Lessons & Living Like Tomorrow Isn't Guaranteed

    Nancy French's Joyful Grandparenting Lessons & Living Like Tomorrow Isn't Guaranteed
    Jan 1 2026

    How Do We Shape Future Generations Well?

    Nancy French returns to The Good Faith Podcast with host Curtis Chang for a heartfelt, funny, and surprisingly practical conversation about how grandparenting reshapes your view of hope, kids and screens, grief, and what's worth doing with the time you have—even is that just means "robbing a bank with a Barbie." This conversation isn't just for grandparents: it's for anyone mentoring, parenting, teaching, or influencing the next generation, with practical wisdom on choosing connection, naming loss honestly, and creating space for kids to grow "analog" and resilient. Nancy also explains why legacy and being remembered aren't the point—what matters is faithfully loving the people in front of you and passing on stability, courage, and hope that outlasts you.

A very inspirational message much needed in todays world. Worth a listen. Transition time with David rotating off but confident that Curtis and guests will be able to pass the baton.
