The John-Henry Westen Show

Father Fyodor Lukyanov paints a dramatic picture of Russia’s spiritual transformation: once the heart of global atheism, now rising as a beacon of Christian renewal. In this stirring conversation, he argues that Christianity must remain the soul of the pro-life movement, warning that any attempt to secularize it will weaken its moral power. He casts Russia as a moral refuge from the West’s globalist elite, celebrating the country’s defense of family, unborn life, and national identity. Drawing on Marian prophecy, wartime miracles, and mass processions ignored by the mainstream media, Lukyanov calls this the dawn of a new Christian Orthodox Russia: one prepared, he believes, to lead a global spiritual awakening under Christ and the protection of the Virgin Mary.U.S. residents!

Once the first country to legalize abortion, Russia has undergone a sweeping moral transformation, slashing abortion rates from 5 million to under 500,000. In a candid interview from Moscow, Father Fyodor Lukyanov credits the Orthodox Church’s growing influence, and its alliance with state leaders for this pro-life shift. From mandatory heartbeat laws to regional abortion bans, Lukyanov describes a nation repenting of its past and embracing faith to heal its future. He warns, however, that the battle is also cultural: Russia is targeting what it calls destructive Western ideologies, like radical LGBT activism and surrogacy, as forms of “spiritual suicide.” By rejecting these trends and championing large families as national heroes, Lukyanov sees Russia not just surviving but being reborn through divine guidance and moral clarity.U.S. residents!

James Delingpole, a journalist and author known for his incisive commentary on culture and politics, engages in a thought-provoking discussion. He reveals how modern institutions suppress truth through 'satanic inversion,' critiquing everything from environmentalism to Darwinism. Delingpole correlates abortion with demonic influence, arguing it reflects a spiritual battle rather than a political one. He emphasizes the power of prayer and the importance of discernment as Christians face what might be a final confrontation, encouraging a return to Marian devotion.

Natalia Moskvitna, founder of Women for Life, shares how Russia’s dramatic turnaround, from 2.5 million abortions annually to under 500,000, was born out of personal resistance to Soviet-era abortion pressure. Her organization has since saved over 9,000 children, offering women financial, legal, and emotional support while pushing for protections against abortion coercion. Unlike Western pro-life movements often detached from religious roots, Russia’s revival is openly faith-based, bolstered by Orthodox Christian values and state initiatives that honor large families. For Natalia, abortion is not freedom, it’s psychological and spiritual bondage. Her vision of a culture that celebrates motherhood as national strength offers a challenge and inspiration to the pro-life movement worldwide.U.S. residents!

Citing COVID’s devastation, collapsing Western values, and hostility toward large families, they describe the warmth and reverence they found in Russian culture. From pro-family policies to public expressions of faith, they found hope, order, and purpose abroad. Their story touches on Fatima, natural law, and the deeper battle for children’s souls in a world unraveling.U.S. residents!

The fiercest battle today isn’t political, it’s spiritual. Demons aren’t metaphors but real enemies exploiting disorder, broken formation, and the collapse of traditional Catholic life. Instead of turning to the sacraments, fasting, and the authority structures within Church and family, many Catholics fall back on Protestant models of deliverance and emotionalism.The infiltration of Marxist, feminist, and secular ideas has weakened men, replaced fatherhood with performance, and left the domestic Church exposed. True spiritual warfare demands clarity, discipline, and a return to the sacramental and doctrinal weapons that have always been the Church’s arsenal.U.S. residents!

Commander John Sharpe joins John-Henry Westen for a frank look at how Catholic just war teaching collides with modern U.S. foreign policy. A decorated Navy officer, Sharpe recounts his own “cancellation before it was cool” after opposing the Iraq War, drawing on Aquinas, Vatican II, and Leo XIII to argue that America’s wars often fail the tests of just cause, last resort, and proportionality.He exposes how leaders exploit fear, like the infamous “mushroom cloud” threat, to bypass moral analysis, leaving soldiers, families, and nations scarred. The conversation ranges from the false logic of punishing nations for possible future crimes, to the bipartisan collapse of moral coherence that saw Pat Buchanan and Noam Chomsky aligned against Iraq. With ties to Versailles, the Balfour Declaration, and today’s Middle East turmoil, Sharpe urges Catholics to reject propaganda before another war is waged under false pretenses.U.S. residents!

Dr. Taylor Marshall joins John-Henry Westen to discuss his new book, Christian Patriot, and the controversy surrounding Pope Leo XIV’s early papacy. Marshall argues that modern conservatism has failed because it severed itself from Catholic political philosophy, insisting true renewal must be grounded in Augustine, Aquinas, and the Beatitudes. He outlines a vision of Christian patriotism that defends marriage, family, and moral order while reviving authentic teachings on just war and liberty. The discussion turns sharply to Pope Leo’s recent meeting with Fr. James Martin and approval of an LGBTQ+ pilgrimage, which Marshall calls “a punch to the gut” for faithful Catholics.Learn more about Christian Patriot, and the controversy surrounding Pope Leo XIV’s early papacy, and get the book here: https://amzn.to/46kTqqU.S. residents!
