Sam Shamoun, the Qur’an, and the Trinity—Did I Misstate His Views?
Did I misrepresent Sam Shamoun on the nature of the God of the Qur’an and the Trinity? In this in-depth response, I carefully walk through Sam’s claims, public behavior, and theology—while addressing whether my portrayal of his views was fair and accurate. Along the way, I explore the Catholic magisterium’s teaching on Islam, clarify the views of recent popes, and examine Sam’s recurring pattern of blocking, misrepresenting, and attacking others. I also respond to accusations of being divisive, set the record straight on William Albrecht, and reflect on how Catholics can thoughtfully engage tough questions about Islam, heresy, and interreligious dialogue.

Was the Promised Land Given to Israel on Condition of Obedience?
Was the Promised Land Given to Israel on Condition of Obedience? In this video, we dive into one of the most important questions in biblical theology: Were God’s promises about the land of Canaan unconditional, or did Israel have to obey the Law of Moses to keep it? We’ll look at the key biblical texts — from Genesis to Deuteronomy — to see what Scripture really says about the land promises. Plus, we’ll explore how the New Testament understands these passages. If you’ve ever wondered how God’s promises work in the Old Testament, this video is for you!

Nobody’s Talking About This in the Cruz & Tucker Israel Debate
Ted Cruz says supporting Israel is a biblical obligation — but what does that really mean? In this episode, we go beyond the talking points and ask the uncomfortable questions: What are the implications of basing U.S. foreign policy on biblical prophecy? How does this theological stance shape Cruz’s unwavering support for Israel? And what are the political consequences — both at home and abroad — of merging religious belief with state power? This isn’t just about Cruz. It’s about a deeper trend in American politics — where faith, nationalism, and geopolitics collide.
