The AC Podcast

It used to be that death was not an acceptable outcome of a medical procedure. Well, no more. The legal and social development in Canada in the last several years has opened the door to assisted suicide and euthanasia. When death is an acceptable outcome of a medical procedure, how does it impact both medical professionals and those who are on the receiving end of the needle? Andy and Steve invited Larry Worthen, the Executive Director for the Christian Medical and Dental Association in Canada, to discuss the legal and social aspect of this discussion.

Deception, an aspect of the Fall of Man, receives comparatively little attention, yet it has the potential to exercise one of the most far-reaching influences in our lives from social media posts to adverts on TV to financial investments, even to our relationships, down to what we believe about reality, the world, life, death, and God! Join Andy Steiger as he sits down with Author Lee N. Emerson to discuss his book "Deception!" and hat the Bible has to say about the subject in relation to our culture past and present.

"A house divided against itself, cannot stand." This has become the reality for the LGBTQ+ community as of late. So much so, that even leading activists are hesitant to comment on how dire of a situation they find themselves. It goes without saying that the logical disagreements on gender identity speak to the much deeper issues of our human identity. Join Andy, Troy and Wes as they discuss the logical implications this debate is having on our increasingly polarized world.

Recently, Andy returned from a trip to Romania. From the World Congress, to local churches, and even to a radio station, he had some wonderful opportunities to speak in various settings. Even as he was enjoying the company of an amazing people and appetizing food, Andy came back with many thoughts about the global Church. Join us for this week’s edition of AC Podcast as he shares his thoughts with the rest of the podcast team.

Do women and children have inherent human dignity? Almost all of us would readily say, “Yes, of course!” In fact, it would seem almost weird in our culture to even raise that question because the answer seems so obvious. Yet, it hasn’t always been this way, and, often human dignity was allotted selectively. Join Wes, Troy, and Steve on this week’s episode of AC Podcast, as they discuss universal human dignity, its justification, and what Roman brothels have to do with it.

“They judge you, they judge Christ, Godspeed to women’s rights.” Coming off the back of the overturning of the Roe V. Wade decision, Recording Artist and Pop Culture mogul Kendrick Lamar recites this polarizing message at the Glastonbury festival in England. If his mantra wasn’t enough, Kendrick, already dawning a crown of thorns, would then drip prop blood imitating Christ. Join Troy, Steve and Wes as they discuss Symbology in the arts and the importance of a gentle response in light of a sacrilegious displays in modern culture.

Conscience is a hot topic these days. Many people — especially certain medical professionals — are feeling the pressure of rapidly changing cultural values. What is conscience? Why is it important to allow room for people to act according to their conscience? Andy, Steve, Troy, and Wes sat down together to discuss these questions and more as Andy prepares for a big trip ahead.

There has often been a tendency to be rather comparative when it comes to sharing testimonies. While Christian culture often lends its attention to the most tragic of stories, it doesn't share it's scars.

Tune into this week's episode as we introduce Alanzo to the AC Podcast audience. Hear about how God radically changed Alanzo's life and what he's doing with the grace he's been given.
