  • Nothing Left to Prove, So Much Left to Do with Larry Johnston
    May 29 2025
    The following interview is from 2017, when Hank Hanegraaff was joined by the eminently quotable Larry Johnston, a friend and colleague of over forty years, for a wide-ranging conversation certain to send you searching for a dictionary. Today, Larry is absent from the body, present with the Lord. We don’t know the date of our death, but apart from the return of the Lord, we know that day will come. Larry’s testimony will impact your life, and we hope that you will walk away with a greater perspective of eternity—“Only one life, ’twill soon be past; only what’s done for Christ will last.”

  • Stockholm Syndrome Christianity: Why America’s Christian Leaders Are Failing — and What We Can Do About It with John West
    May 1 2025
    What if American culture isn’t collapsing because of crusading secularists? What if it’s failing because many leading Christians identify more with secular elites than with their fellow believers? Dr. John West joins Hank Hanegraaff to discuss how he wrote Stockholm Syndrome Christianity as a warning to the body of Christ—a warning not to capitulate to the culture, but to transform the culture.To receive Stockholm Syndrome Christianity: Why America’s Christian Leaders Are Failing — and What We Can Do About It for your partnering gift, please click here

  • Priests of History: Stewarding the Past in an Ahistoric Age with Sarah Irving-Stonebraker
    Apr 10 2025
    How can Christians engage meaningfully with history?

    In an age underpinned by the idea that life is about self-invention and fulfilment, contemporary Western culture holds that the past has little to teach us. We live in an age that historian Sarah Irving-Stonebraker terms as the “Ahistoric Age,” in which we are profoundly disconnected from history.

    In the attempt to appear relevant, the church often embraces this ahistoric worldview by jettisoning the historic ideas and practices of Christian formation. But this has unintended consequences, leaving Christians unmoored from history and losing the ability to grapple with its ethical complexities.

    Sarah Irving-Stonebraker joins Hank Hanegraaff to discuss what it means to be a priest of history and why it matters more than ever for Christians to maintain this critical conversation with the past.

    • The myth of progress—the secularization of ideas and progress in history (14:55)
    • When did our modern ahistoric age begin? (18:30)
    • Reducing history to ideology is a mistake because history is nuanced and complex (23:55)
    • What is the purpose of a museum? The modern and political redefinition of what a museum is (27:30)

As a convert who was indoctrinated with the Protestant presentation of the gospel, albeit in a abusive cult, this presentation of the Orthodox tradition of the gospel is based on that which is laid out for us in holy scripture and apostolic tradition. I admit this realignment from that which is false to that which is true has been difficult and has raised many more questions, but I encourage everyone to start here and listen to this podcast.
