Politics By Faith is back!
July 20, 2023

The long form is back! Thank you for your patience while the family settles into our new home.

Welcome to Politics by Faith brought to you by the Patriot Goal Group and Public Square app. Slater, where you been?

Sorry, it's been a long time. This move has been more stressful on the family and on me than I thought and it's wild. My wife and I, we like routines and moving cross country with four kids will change your routines quite a bit. It's amazing how many micro decisions on autopilot when you're in a routine you don't even think about. Like, where are the forks? Like, you just like, you know where the forks are. But then when you move, you don't know where anything is. So you make a billion decisions every day and it ends up being exhausting and it's hard to do much of anything. So I apologize that this full length podcast has been and if you missed the whole story, we had two medium sized moving trucks and on the way, one of them burned to the ground. So we lost probably three quarters of everything. So now it's like hey where are the forks? Oh I think we put them in that drawer and you open the drawer and there's no forks. Oh yeah we don't have any forks. I forgot. So now we got to go get forks. So it's just and everything else. So it's just been a lot. But that's no it's an excuse. I was gonna say that's not a good excuse. I think it's a pretty good excuse, actually. But we're back and we'll do the best we can here. Moving forward, doing these as much as we can. But I've committed to doing the daily one, the morning motivation. I think those are worth it. Well, it's all worth it, but I can do those in a good amount of time and hopefully we'll get back to these long-form ones once or twice a week as well. So thank you for your patience. Thank you for caring. All of these podcasts, by the way, we put on MikeSlater.Locals.com, so if you want to see them commercial-free, you go to MikeSlater.Locals.com, and I think more importantly, the transcript is available there as well. This episode, I want to talk about the soul for a couple reasons. Oh, so the reason we moved to Nashville is I got a new job. So I'm still hosting the show in San Diego. I've been doing it for 12 years. Keeping that job, which is amazing. The new job is I'm the host of the morning show on SiriusXM Patriot, Breitbart News Daily with Mike Slater. And it's been awesome. We've done it for two, three weeks now. And that's been pretty stressful too. It's been great, but you know, just getting routines and figuring everything out. You're nervous because you want to do a good job your first couple weeks. So it's been a lot, but we're starting to get a groove now and we've had some amazing guests. And just the other day we had a guy who's, Jocko Bullions is his name, who's dedicated his life to fighting against child sex trafficking and rescuing kids who are caught up in child sex trafficking. And this was inspired, we've talked to him a lot actually over the years, but specifically this week inspired by the movie Sound of Freedom. Have you seen it? This is the independent Christian movie. It cost fifteen million dollars to make and they've now made over a hundred million dollars and Disney passed on it and more people per screen are seeing this movie than Indiana Jones and all the other summer blockbusters and people are choosing to see a movie about child sex trafficking. That's unbelievable. That says a lot about where our country is too, I think in a good way. I think people are thirsting for the truth. I think people are thirsting for important things. I think people are thirsting for things that matter.

0:03:55
There's this whole idea like, oh, would people want to be entertained and numb out and veg out? You're like, yeah, maybe, but I think, I think people really want some gravitas. They want, they want some weightiness. They want things that matter. They want to be a part of something that matters, something bigger than themselves. So even the idea of watching a movie about the most horrific thing imaginable, people want to go see it. And it's good that people are aware of it. And we talked all about how the left is saying this is a phantom issue and it's a made-up QAnon conspiracy and it's not even a thing that happens. You're like, what are you kidding me? It is so bad the world we're living in, the culture we're living in. I read a headline and it said, former child sex trafficking advocate speaks out against Sound of Freedom. So I was like, oh, that's interesting. Why would a child sex trade advocate speak out against a movie about, you know, bringing awareness to the child sex... And I read the article and I was like, well, maybe, as we... The one critique we did talk about the movie is it kind of makes it seem as if child sex trafficking is a thing that happens in South America or Thailand and not in America, although it's a huge problem in America. So maybe that's that guy's concern, is it doesn't focus enough on American child sex trafficking. And I read the article, and the article doesn't make any sense. And I'm like, wait, what's going on? So I go back up to the headline, and the headline didn't say, former child sex trafficking advocate. The headline said, former pedophile advocate speaks out against Sound of Freedom. And I was like, pedophile? That's so bizarre, the idea of a pedophile advocate. My brain didn't compute it. And it was, like I read pedophile, and my brain said, oh, well, that's not it. That's not the word. It must mean child sex trafficking advocate. And then I put it in that box, and then moved forward as if that's what it said. And that's not what it said. It said, pedophile advocate. There's a pedophile advocate. That's a thing. And that's gonna be the ultimate thing, by the way. That's where they're ultimately going. That's the ultimate taboo. It's the ultimate thing left to be brought out of the shadows, into the light. Wait for that. So, in the light of all this, Sound of Freedom, and just a lot of the trans stuff and everything going on in our country, I wanna talk about the soul. I share this story all the time, but it was such a pivotal moment in my political journey. I feel like I just need to share it whenever I can and maybe it'll be meaningful to you too. It was a couple years back, maybe three years ago, when I was talking to one of the most acclaimed psychologists of today, he's got a million different books, Ivy League scholar, whole thing, and I asked him how this topic that we were talking about, how does this affect the soul?

0:06:52
How does it affect your soul? And he said, oh, we don't deal with the soul. We don't talk about the soul, but I can tell you how it affects the brain. Because the people in the modern world, you're just random chemicals and like random hormones that trigger at times that cause you to act certain ways that there is no soul, the word psychology, this guy's a psychologist, the word psychologist is Greek for study of the soul. Psyche, psych, soul, study of the soul. So the entire field of the study of the soul doesn't account for the soul. That's amazing. So I realized that the soul is what matters the most. If the modern world ignores the soul, then clearly that's the thing that matters the most. So what's really going on in this ignoring of the soul? It's a quote I came across recently. It's been attributed to C.S. Lewis and a bunch of other people, but it looks like the first reference is George MacDonald from 1892 over in England. He observed that there was, in his view, excessive mourning going on at funerals, a lot of wailing and such. And he said, this is no good. This is no good. This wailing and over too much sadness, it takes people away from the reality that your hope is in heaven. And this ties in perfectly, and I didn't mean to do this, but this ties in perfectly to the theme of the morning motivations this week. Luke 10, Jesus said to his disciples, "'Rejoice more than anything "'that your name is written in heaven.'" That is the greatest thing of all that you could ever possibly rejoice in, no matter what you ever do ever in life. That's the most important thing. And people are wailing at a funeral, and he's like, why? He said, never tell a child you have a soul. Teach him you are a soul. You have a body. He said, as we learn to think of things always in this order, that the body is but the temporary clothing of our soul, our views of death and the unbefittingness of customary mourning will approximate to those friends of earlier generations." We've got to act more like the people who came before us. But think about that. That's a paradigm shift. You don't have a soul. You are a soul. You aren't a body that has a soul, you are a soul that has a body. That's a totally different game. Now, there's some debate about this already, the importance of the body in the Christian world, right? It's the body's important. I'm not minimizing it to nothing, but the soul should come first. I think we can all agree that the soul has been neglected in our modern world. And we wonder why people are so depressed and empty and why kids are looking to fill this void with anything that they can grasp to as they're drowning in chaos, transgenderism just being one of those things. Let's lament here for a second, but before I do, let's celebrate. Let's take a moment to celebrate the Public Square app. As I am recording this today, this morning, the Public Square app, Michael Seifert, the founder, rang the bell on the New York Stock Exchange as they are now a publicly traded company. It's unbelievable. Well, it's totally believable. I'm so proud of him and what he was creating. I was at the launch, actually that was a couple years ago, it wasn't that long ago, two years ago maybe? And I was like, oh man, I hope this goes well. I really hope the Public Square app is successful. And it is just thriving. Donald Trump Jr. is one of the big investors now, and it's going amazing, and I'm so happy for him. So it's only gonna get better. Jump in now, totally free, the Public Square app, and you can connect with like-minded business owners. So if you wanna go get coffee, don't go get it from the Starbucks, go get it from the local coffee shop that shares your values. What are those values? Go to the Public Square website, publicsq.com, scroll down to the bottom, there's the five values that every business owner needs to attest to before they can be featured on the app and we can grow a parallel economy. You wanna know what it's like? It's like the movie. It's like the movie, Sound of Freedom. That was bailed on by all the major production houses, Disney and all the rest, and it was done independently by Angel Studios, people who do The Chosen, and look what a great, incredible success it is. Huge money maker. The last eight Disney movies have lost almost a billion dollars for Disney. That's unsustainable. This movie made 100 million. It's doing pretty good. So hopefully we can continue to grow these, our A, parallel economy, with people who have these values. It's really important. And the Public Square app are the people to do it. And they're building out this whole new platform to be like an Amazon of all this too, right? So it's not just a place where individual stores are, but you can buy through the app at all the stores. It's gonna be great. They have a huge future, but the present is fantastic. I've been using it for a long time now, and they're growing in exponential ways. So anyway, the Public Square app, be a part of it. It's truly a revolution. I don't say that lightly. That is a big deal how fast they're growing and I'm so happy to be just a tiny part of it. The Public Square app, publicsq.com and it's free in the app store. All right, let's lament about the unhappiness in this country, this lack of joy, this malaise. It's not an economic problem. We have more than ever. It's not a political problem. This clearly can't be solved with government. This is a problem is the problem with the soul. For the first time since they've been asking this question, let me pull it up here, make sure I got this right. They've been asking the question, are you, take it all together, how would you say things are these days? Would you say that you're very happy, pretty happy, or not too happy? And since the 70, 72, 1972, very happy's been mid-30s. And it went down to 18%. Not too happy, but about 10% and it jumped up to 25%. This is the first time ever since 1972. Through all types of economic problems and war and all types of things. This is the first time that there are more people who say they're not too happy than very happy. I don't like that. And it is because we continue to get more and more disconnected from our creator. We get more disconnected. I should say we ignore more our soul. We are starving our soul. If you think of a visual of our soul, if you could personify our soul, I don't know how you want to personify it, but I think of it as a frail, decrepit, ghastly man, just black and wretched and full of tar and just like crunched over and can barely move. That's the soul. We've just been not feeding it. And then we wonder why we're not happy. This morning on Breitbart News Daily, I was talking to the great Chris Rufo. He's got a new book out that you have to buy and This is a section from the book. Excuse me for reading it. He says the Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin Raised his glass to a group of artists assembled at the home of famed writer Maxim Gorky in 1932 the production of souls is More important than the production of tanks," he said, explaining that the communists desired not only to remake the world of politics and economics, but to reshape human nature according to the dictates of left-wing ideology. And so he continued, I raise my glass to you, writers, the engineers of the human soul. This concept, Chris says, the ruthless application of politics to the most intimate recesses of the human spirit would drive the communist regimes for the middle part of the 20th century. The Soviets had their artists, the Chinese had their propagandists, all were committed to the creation of the new man. Here's a little bit from Chris Rufo and I chatting this morning. Yeah, well I

mean they want to capture it, I mean because this is a, you know, Marxism was designed in many ways as a substitute for religion, something that would take over for religion, and so they needed to have a theory of the soul, they needed to have a theory of human nature, and their theory of human nature was that human nature could be changed through the conscious application of politics. And so they believed that they could mold human beings into something totally different with their ideology. I of course take the opposite position. I don't think that you can do that, and I think that as the Marxists have tried to do that in the 20th century, it was another disaster. But in some ways, if you look at it as conservatives, you have to in some ways respect the ambition of their project. Conservatives don't even talk about these things anymore. I think they're too embarrassed to speak about it, about the soul, about faith, about first principles, you know, first things, as the magazine is called, that you read. And I think we have to get back to that, because ultimately that's what people want, and I think especially young people, you know, they want to have those deepest questions answered. And if we don't even attempt to answer them, they're going to fall for all of the kind of, you know, ankle-deep answers, but at least they're getting something from the left. And so I think that the reason

0:17:21
I included that little anecdote was to show that, and also to show that, I mean, what is more horrible than engineering

0:17:15
and chipping away at somebody's soul. It's actually kind of a horrific image, even though they meant it as kind of a compliment.

0:17:23
The left knows what they're after. There's no question about that. They're after their soul, your soul. They're after the soul of your kids. They want to remake human nature. We know that can't be done. It's been tried before, many times before. There's nothing new under the sun, but you, no one can remake fallen human nature. We know the battle. This is the battle for, what Reagan called it, the soul of the nation. I'm more concerned about the soul of each person. The Marxist left is after your soul and after your children's soul. And part of the remaking of your soul is a remake of human nature is telling people that nothing is your fault. You're perfect. It's all their fault. We've talked a lot about stories on my shows this week. Marxism has a great story. The story is your problems in life are caused by that guy and that guy needs to be changed, forced to change, imprisoned, killed, whatever. Christianity has a harder story to tell. The story is your problems are caused by you and you need to change. But we can't forget the truth that the human condition is lost. We've all wandered astray, Isaiah 53 6. We are spiritually blind, 2nd Corinthians 4 4. We are sinful, broke the law of God, 1 John 1.8. We stand guilty before God, the righteous judge, Romans 5.12. We're enslaved by sin, John 8.34. We're morally ruined, Romans 7.18. We're dying physically and dead spiritually, 1 Peter 1.24. In our natural human nature, we do not willingly seek God or his will, Romans 3.10. And we're hostile to God, Romans 8 7. If that sounds really negative Nancy, it is, but the good news is while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. While everything I just said was true, Jesus died for us. Paul writes of human nature in Romans 11 21, he says, for if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will He spare you. Natural. Interesting. 1 Corinthians 15, 44, it is sown a natural body. It is raised a spiritual body. Natural. James 3, 15, the wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly. Natural. Demonic. There it is. Natural. 1 Corinthians 2, Paul uses again the word natural. It's someone who's in their original sinful state. Natural. That's human nature. Now the word natural in Greek, here's the definition. The principle of animal life. That which men have in common with the brutes. The sensuous nature with its subjection to appetite and passion. Not That's the natural state. Not good things. We need to rise above. I wanna play this clip here.

0:20:29
This is Tucker Carlson.

0:20:31
He hosted this forum on Friday with all the Republican candidates except for Trump. And this was just before the forum began talking with the guy who was running it. But leaving aside even elections, I think it's clearly a pivot point in history.

0:20:43
And I don't think the issues that we debate and really are in some ways distractions are the core issues at all. I mean it really there are forces unseen forces acting on people. It's funny in February I was like trying to think about what to do for Len. I'm not a particularly faithful or virtuous person but like you try to do something. I already quit smoking so like what's next? And I thought well I'm just gonna read the Bible and no I'm not gonna do a Bible study. I'm a Protestant, so I feel like I have a right to kind of read it myself. And I'm sorry, I feel that way. And so I've been reading it since February and I'm like about halfway done. And I haven't talked to anyone about it. And I haven't been just been myself reading it. And I have all kinds like the most interesting thing I think I've ever done. It's unbelievable. The amount of drama in those books that has been hidden for me as a regular churchgoer in the Episcopal Church. It's like, wait, why didn't you ever mention this? This is like unbelievable. What? But the two things I have come away with after reading the entire New Testament, and I'm up to Deuteronomy and the Old Testament, is that every person, with the exception of Jesus, every figure is like really flawed. Big time. Like flawed in a way where you'd be like I don't know if I could be friends with that person. You know what I mean? Abraham enters Egypt and he's like, oh it's my sister actually, take her. What? I'm saying to my wife who was a religion teacher, I was like why did anyone, what is that? And she's like maybe the point is that God takes people who are not perfect people, not only not perfect people, like they're so imperfect again, I don't think I could have dinner with them, and uses them for these grander purposes. That's the first thing I noticed. The second thing I notice is that people, while they have free will, of course, and they can make decisions and they live with the consequences of those decisions, they're not really in charge of the arc of history at all. They are being acted upon a lot. And I never really appreciated that because I'm American. And so I grew up with this feeling that we're the sum total of our choices. Well, that's not what I'm reading at all. People's choices matter. You need to do certain things and not do other things. On the other hand, you are not in charge. You are being acted upon by a world you can't see. And that, by the way, is consistent with my life experience. Like I've seen that. I've lived that. I'm 54. And so I feel like it's really important to approach politics with that in mind. Like a lot of these issues are symbols of this much larger battle.

0:23:20
We use a lot of good stuff there. I love that. It's amazing what happens when you open your Bible. Tucker says it's the most interesting thing I've ever done. Tucker's a reader. He reads all the time. But it's fascinating that the church he's been going to or goes to or his church tradition, they just don't. They don't read the Bible. That's true for I think most Christians today. They don't actually read the thing. Because if you read it, you won't be lukewarm about it. You can't. You'll either love it or you'll hate it. You can't be lukewarm. The only way you're lukewarm about the Bible is if you've never read it. But this point that God uses not perfect people, I've said that, I've heard that forever. I don't think that's right. It's not that the people are not perfect. Not perfect implies they're really, really, they're almost perfect. They're almost perfect, but they got this one thing, you know. So they're not quite perfect. I like the way Tucker did it. They're deeply flawed. They're profoundly deeply flawed. And that's way better because, well, why does God use flawed people? Because he gets the glory. Flawed people have to depend on him. They have no other choice. And God uses flawed people because he has no one else to choose from. We're all deeply flawed, so that's just the way that is. 2nd Chronicles 20 and Tucker will get to this if he keeps reading. King Jehoshaphat he cries out do or we do not know what to do but our eyes are upon you. Love that prayer. I don't know what to do but our eyes are upon you. Alistair Begg he made the point that what he was really saying is Lord we're just a bunch of pathetic losers. We are pathetic losers and if you don't help us, we're sunk. He said, that's not a bad mission statement for a church. We're just a bunch of pathetic losers and if God doesn't help us, we're sunk. It's not the worst name for a church either, the church of pathetic losers. But that's a healthy posture for our country. God, we're doing the best we can but we are sunk without you. That's the posture our founders had. That's the posture, posture of not only our founding fathers but our founding grandfathers. They would have proclamations calling for days of humiliation and prayer, a timeout of all earthly pursuits. Our founders did that routinely, not even for any obvious reason, but stop all earthly pursuits and pray, because we can do nothing on our own. That posture is deeply ingrained in our founding, and instead it's been turned into pride. We have pride months now. And then the second thing Taka talked about is this idea that you have to hold these two things together at the same time, that you have free will and you're not in charge.

0:25:51
That seems difficult, doesn't it?

0:25:53
You have free will and you're not in charge, how can that be? Let's talk about what's in your control.

0:25:57
Wait, hold on.

0:25:58
Control, I'm not in charge. Yeah, but you have free will. But I'm not in charge. But you're still called to do things. What's in your control? Jesus, I just heard this the other day, I think this is fascinating. Jesus at Mark 12 30. The first is the most important commandment. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, with all your strength. And you can't fake it. Jesus said in Matthew 15, eight, that these people honor me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. In vain do they worship me. So their lips are singing the hymns and the worship, and they're saying the right things, but you can still be far from Jesus because your heart is far from Jesus. But check this out. I heard this and I confirmed it with my very basic Greek knowledge. It says, love the Lord your God with all your heart, with soul, with mind, with strength. But if you go back to the Greek, the first Greek preposition is not with. The first Greek preposition is a different word. It's ek. All the other withs are en, ek means out of, it means out of or from. The other three prepositions mean with. So if you read it more specifically, more to the text, the commandment of Jesus in Luke 10 27 is you shall love the Lord your God out of or from or as as the spring that comes from out of all of your heart. Love the God with or out of your heart and with all your soul and with your strength and with your mind. Does that difference make sense? Like this all these other things come out of your heart. So what's in our control? Well there's some commandments in the Bible. First, some of the negatives. You're commanded to not be covetous, to not fear those who kill the body, to not feel anxious, to not give way to anger, to not lust, to not love money. These are things we're commanded to not do. And then on the other side, you're commanded to hope, to be to have brotherly affection, tenderheartedness, sympathy, desire for the word of God, joy, gladness, delight, these are all commands. Go back 30 seconds, listen to them again, pick one or two that you're gonna really focus on this week. We have to look at these things as commands because that's what they are. And when we do these things and pray, our soul will be nourished. We want a nourished soul. To go back to that visual of the decrepit, hunched over old man of a soul that's not fed. I want a soul that is vibrant and alive and thriving and when it's connected to the creator of it. So I'm grateful you're here. Thanks for, I hope the return of Politics by Faith. I know it wasn't as maybe specific on an issue as I like to be. I just felt called to talk about this general topic that is the soul. And you can apply it to many, many things. Look at our world around us. The next time you see people calling child sex trafficking a QAnon conspiracy theory, or trans children being mutilated, or whatever decrepit thing you see out there. Just think about the soul. And then ourselves, whenever we're feeling out. Really what I think you're feeling is disconnected. At least I am. So final thought, thing to meditate on first. Patriot, gold, group. first patriot gold group, the economy is still in bad shape. It was just about six weeks ago we raised the debt ceiling and in I think four weeks we spent a trillion, we didn't spend a trillion, the debt went up by a trillion. It's been more than that, the debt went up by a trillion in just a couple weeks.

0:30:21
Isn't that amazing?

0:30:23
Our debt is completely out of control. In 2010, our debt was 13 trillion, gold was $1,000 an ounce. In 2020, the debt was 23 trillion, gold was 1,500 an ounce. Today, the debt is 32 trillion, and gold is 2,000 an ounce. So now that we have a trillion dollars in interest payments annually, and another trillion on defense, and there's no sign of any of this slowing down, what do we think will happen to gold? Bloomberg said gold appears as a caged bull awaiting a catalyst. And I love this fact, people searching how to buy gold. So the idea of buying gold, like I'm in, how? I was shocked how simple it is. Go to Patriot Gold Group and buy from them and they mail it to you. One, eight at eight, 617-6122, FedEx, technically, but the FedEx man shows up and hands you gold. Like, what? That's unbelievable. Eight at eight, 617-6122. You can also talk about a no-fee-for-life IRA. Your IRA or 401k can be a physical gold and silver as well, so you can talk about that and also own physical gold and silver. Patriot Gold Group, consumer affairs, top rated gold IRA dealer, six years in a row and counting. Pretty awesome, 888-617-6122. How to buy gold, they're the best, patriotgoldgroup.com. So what do we think about tonight? What's our final thought to meditate on? Anything that distracts you from delighting in God, from building up your soul, get it out of your life.

0:32:05
Your soul needs so much more than we're feeding. 1 Peter 2 11, Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh which wage war against your soul. Mike Slater, dot locals, dot com.

Fox & Friends

We were on Fox & Friends talking about all of the train robberies in CA. It's so bad the train company says they may have to ride right THROUGH Los Angeles entirely and never slow down lol. What a joke this state it.

That link is a bit odd, I've attached a short video to get the gist.

In short, The rich get richer, the poor get the handouts and the middle class gets out of town.

This causes these progressive politicians to get even more entrenched.

We haven't hit rock bottom yet.

Boys to men, girls to women

How do you do it? Advice please!

Dean Abbott,
"Why contemporary relations between the sexes are so messed up. The problem starts with men because men lead, the masculine pursues and initiates, and problems always start at the level of leadership.

Most men aren't taught that a relationship with a woman means accepting responsibility. No one tells us that a woman represents not only pleasure, but obligation.
The fact that having a relationship with a woman means responsibility and obligation never enters many men's minds.

When these men enter into a relationship with a woman, they are overwhelmed by her needs, her feminine communication style, and her emotions.
Moreover, he unconsciously resents her for having needs at all since he has been conditioned to see her solely as a source of pleasure.
When her anger and disappointment over his irresponsibility gets intense enough, he splits in search of another woman.
He mistakenly believes the problem wasn't his attitude nor that it is a ...

Morning Motivation, April 21, 2023

I found a way to easily transcribe the podcasts, so I will post them here first before they go out to iTunes and the rest.

Good morning. Welcome to The Morning Motivation, brought to you by Public Square and Patriot Gold Group. I'm grateful you're here. I was reading a sermon by the great Puritan preacher John Owen in the mid-1600s. I'm so fascinated by this time period, 1600s, early 1700s. We focus a lot on our founding fathers. I think that the Tea Party movement and just conservatism in general has focused a lot on the founding fathers, and that's amazing, but I'm very fascinated by our founding grandfathers or great-grandfathers, the people who created the culture that our founding fathers were raised in.

0:00:44
Isn't that a fascinating era? We got like 1776, like that's great, I love it, I want to know more, I don't know nearly enough. But what about the 1720s? What was going on there? Or the late 1600s? What was going on in America at that time? And you know, we've all heard of the Puritans, but you ...

Inflation and ANGER

I am angry and frustrated. With our Rulers. For getting us in this terrible economy. It doesn't have to be this way.

How could they never learn from past mistakes! This is ANCIENT history, stop printing money...yet, after COVID, we never printed more. Amazing.

Please leave a 5-star review on Itunes. We have a ton of momentum, this is about to break through! Thank you!

Also, I haven't done any lives anywhere becauase we're hosting a daily TV show "Road to Misterms" on thefirsttv.com, and it's taken all of my extra time. And my wife is giving birth any day now, so...it's been a lot around here. But after the midterms, time will free up.

Politics by Faith: Parkland and the Death Penalty

I've gone back and forth on the death penalty many times over the years. I've recently come down on the other side.

Should the Parkland murderer have gotten the death penalty or life in prison?

Please leave a review on iTunes! We need to get to 1k :-)

Btw, we're getting the momentum we need, more downloads every day, THANK YOU!

Politics by Faith: Parkland and the Death Penalty

Is there any way we can help you take over some of the pod casts that Charlie Kirk -the country needs you and I need you. Thanks so much for your support and care. USA need you. How can I help?

This is spot on Mike! We have become dehumanized! You can not read a persons real needs on a screen nor text! A job or passion offers human interaction and I pray these stay at home on our tax dollars find that truth. We have lost our way… People need hugs and love and someone to listen. If we do not have that face to face interaction we will become nothing more than those who can not deal with lives issues.
Our politicians need to stop thinking about themselves and their agenda and think of the country as a whole. My suggestion today is go out and make someone’s life a little better than it is and not with money! And if it is only leave a space better than you found it -imagine if everyone left every place better than they found it. If you did one thing to make another human beings life better and told them you loved them. If we did this every day- what a great world we would have again! Time to get back to this countries MOTTO… if you do not know the counties motto it is ...

Good morning @MikeSlater and all my fellow Slater Crusaders! I've been following Mike for years and after having MANY one way conversations with the radio or podcast, have finally joined the community here on locals.com. I can't wait for the chance to share thoughts and ideas with you all. Thank you Mike for creating this place. I hope we can help inform each other about our world and support growing our relationship and faith in Jesus.

Charlie Kirk: Heaven Is Real
Politics By Faith, September 17, 2025

I came across this poem the other day, and it may be helpful to you in a time of grief. 

Welcome to Politics by Faith. Thanks for being here. This is the third time I've recorded, and I've never, I've never taken two takes on this podcast. This is the third time I've had to do a take here. I just recorded this episode reading a poem that I thought would be helpful to a lot of different people in a lot of different circumstances. Whether you've experienced a horrible loss in your life, I think about this from the perspective of Charlie's parents. 

I think about this from his wife's, his wife, his children's perspective one day, Charlie Kirk, of course. We have this memorial service coming up on Sunday, and I pray that it is beautiful. I pray that God speaks through everyone who is speaking there and that the people there who are speaking say what God wants them to say and what this country needs to hear. I pray it sparks a revival. I pray this Sunday is a beautiful event and good. Before we read this poem, I want to play this clip here of A man, Frank Turek. 

I didn't know this, but Frank Turek is the author of a book that someone gave me that early in my becoming a Christian called, I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist. It's my favorite apologetics book I ever read. It's the first one I ever read. And it's amazing. And I've given it to a lot of people. And it's amazing book. 

I don't have enough faith to be an atheist. And he was amazing friends with Charlie Kirk. He was actually standing right next to Charlie Kirk when he got shot. He was the man in the white hat who people are like, oh, he's making a hand signal to. No, this is Frank Turek. He's an amazing man and apologetics assist. 

And as you hear here, a wonderful father, like figure to Charlie Kirk. I want to play what he said first about Charlie's final moments and then go into this poem. 

Now, Here's what Erica wants me to relate on Sunday. This is going to be the hard part, but maybe also the comforting part. Charlie Kirk was literally like a son to me. I have three sons. He was like my fourth son. My three sons are a little bit older than Charlie. He was like my fourth son. 

So when he was hit, if your son got hit, what would you do? What would you do? I got in the car. Because if there was any way I could save him, I had to do something. I couldn't just take him. You guys got it. 

So I They got him into the side of the car. It was an SUV. It was the SUV we took over. And I'm on one side, and there's actually some video. There's somebody who's taking video of this. I'm on one side of the car, the right side, and they're getting Charlie in. 

So I run over to the other side, but the guy who was dragging him in is now blocking that entrance. So at that point, I run around to the back. I pop the top, the back gate open, and I jump in the back. The car lurches forward. Apparently, somebody jumped in the car. So the car lurches forward. 

So I almost fall out of the car. or the SUV. Then I grabbed the thing and close it. And there's five of us in the car now. Justin is driving. Dan is up front with the GPS. 

Rick has got him. Rick's on my left. And Brian is there. And I'm coming over the back seat. And Charlie's laid out in front, just right in front of me. And Charlie's so tall, we can't close the door. 

We drove four miles, I don't know, it's four something miles, all the way to the hospital with the door open. To this day, I don't know how Brian stayed in the car because we're just go, go, go. 

go, go. 

We're trying to stop the bleeding, you saw it. And I'm yelling, come on, Charlie, come on, come on. Meanwhile, my phone is still on. My son and daughter -in -law are hearing this whole thing. And his security team, again, Justin, Dan, Brian, and Rick, they love Charlie, but they're much cooler than I. I mean, they're just carrying out, they're calmly, but they're swiftly doing exactly what they were trained to do. 

Rick starts praying out loud. I'm praying out loud. We're yelling, come on, let's go, let's go, let's go. My son's hearing all this, and we're doing the best we can to navigate traffic. This is not a highway, we're on surface streets. And suddenly there's an ambulance coming toward us. 

And there was conversation in the car, should we stop? We're like, no, no, just keep going, just keep going. The doctor later said that was the right thing to do. Ambulance goes by us. We're still heading to the hospital trying to get there. At one point, somebody says, let's get there in one piece because we're just we're cutting through intersections. 

You know, we're just beeping the horn. This is not an emergency vehicle. There's no there's no lights. There's none of this. And I go, we've got to start CPR. So I try and start that. 

Now, he wasn't there. 

His eyes were fixed. He wasn't looking at me. He was looking past me right into eternity. He was with Jesus already. He was killed instantly and felt absolutely no pain. That's what I was told later. 

But of course, we had to try. By the way, there was just nothing, nothing any of us could do about it. We were giving him CPR, but nothing was happening. It wasn't like if we had better first aid or we had better medical facilities or we're faster to the hospital, we could have saved him. We couldn't. So if that's any comfort at all, Charlie didn't suffer. 

He was gone. He was with Jesus absent from the body present with the Lord. That's where he was. Now it is true. When we got to the hospital, And they started working on him right away. They did get a pulse back. 

And so Rick and I were just everyone's praying. We're just praying for a miracle. We had a we had a small sliver of hope. And the doctor later said that we got a pulse because Charlie was a very healthy man. But the shot was catastrophic. So 20 or 30 minutes later, the surgeon came out and said he was dead. 

Can't wait to hear what he's going to say on Sunday. Now I want to play this poem that I already recorded and it's about heaven. So I've recorded this poem and then right afterwards, my producer sent me this, that clip you just heard right there. And I was like, Oh, I got it. I got to put this in the beginning. So here is a poem about heaven. 

It's a poem by John Pierpont. He's a poet 150 years ago or so. It's called My Child. He says, I cannot make him dead. His fair sunshiny head is ever bounding round my study chair. He's always running around me. 

Yet, when my eyes now dim with tears, I turn to him. The vision vanishes. He's not there. I walk my parlor floor, and through the open door, I hear a footfall on the chamber stair. 

I hear him. 

I'm stepping towards the hall to give the boy a call, and then bethink me that he's not there. I tread the crowded street. A satcheled lad I meet, with the same beaming eyes and colored hair. And as he's running by, I follow him with my eye, scarcely believing that he's not there. I know, I know, his face is hid. Under the coffin lid. 

Closed are his eyes. Cold is his forehead fair. My hand that marble felt. O 'er it in prayer I knelt. Yet my heart whispers that he's not there. Quick pause, I'm halfway through. 

Nothing's really been said. I haven't heard anything said about Charlie Kirk's parents. So they're thinking that of their child. They have their emotions. This is from Erica's perspective, thinking of her children that now don't have a dad. And you've gone through heartache. 

This may be super relevant to your life right now as well and maybe what you need to hear. The poet says, I cannot make him dead when passing by the bed. So long watched over with parental care, my spirit and my eye seek it inquiringly before the thought comes that he is not there. When at the cool gray break of day from sleep I wake with my first breathing of the morning air, my soul up with joy to him who gave my boy then comes the sad thought that he is not there oh my goodness I don't know which of these is more heartbreaking when at the day's calm close before we seek repose I'm with his mother offering up our prayer whatever I may be saying I am in spirit praying for our boy's spirit though he's not there not there where then is he can we please have a turn in this poem not there where then is he The form I used to see was but the raiment that he used to wear. Clothes, they're just clothes. 

Raiment's just clothing. So the form, the thing that I see that I can't stop seeing running around, jump around me, climb up the stairs, whatever. The thing I can't not see, the thing I can't unsee is just clothes that he used to wear. The grave that now doth press upon that cast off dress is but his wardrobe locked. He is not there. He lives. 

In all the past he lives, in all my memories, nor to the last of seeing him again will I despair. In dreams I see him now, and on his angel brow I see it written, thou shalt see me there. Yes, we all live to God. Father, thy chastening rod, so help us, thine afflicted ones, help us to bear that in the spirit land, meeting at thy right hand, t 'will be our heaven to find that he is there. John Pierpont. my child, I can't wait to go to heaven one day too.

Charlie Kirk: Heaven Is Real
Politics By Faith, September 17, 2025

I came across this poem the other day, and it may be helpful to you in a time of grief. 

I'm adding a short little intro here to the normal intro we normally do. I'm about to read a poem here. It's way sadder. There's moments of it that are way sadder than I even thought. So I just want to give a little emotional warning before this episode. Just brace yourself, prepare yourself. 

There is a turn in the poem, so it ends up joyful, but in the beginning, it could be difficult. Okay, now to the regularly scheduled podcast. Welcome to Politics by Faith. Thank you for being here. This Sunday is the memorial service for Charlie Kirk. I pray it is a beautiful service and moving and Holy Spirit led and sparks a revival and that God speaks through everyone who is speaking there and what needs to be said is said and heard by the American people. 

I came across this poem two days ago. There's a lot of things in here that I think are relevant. It depends where your perspective is exactly, but I think it can help a lot of people in a lot of different ways. It's a poem by John Pierpont, who's a poet 150 years ago or so. It's called My Child. He says, I cannot make him dead. 

His fair sunshiny head is ever bounding round my study chair. He's always running around me. Yet when my eyes now dim with tears, I turn to him, the vision vanishes. He's not there.

Oh my goodness. I don't know which of these is more heartbreaking. When at the day's calm close, before we seek repose, I'm with his mother offering up our prayer. Whatever I may be saying, I am in spirit praying for our boy's spirit, though he's not there. 

" Not there. Where then is he? Can we please have a turn in this poem? Not there. Where then is he? The form I used to see was but the raiment that he used to wear.

Charlie Kirk: Should We Cancel Leftists?
Politics By Faith, September 16, 20, 2025

It's quite shocking how many people have celebrated the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and celebrated in vile ways. Should these people be fired from their jobs? 

 

A couple of Bible verses that have come to mind recently. 

Someone sent me this one, John 12, 24. Verily, verily, I say unto you, except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone, but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. John 12, 24, the line before that, it's Jesus talking about his death. He says, the hour has come that the son of man should be glorified. Let's read the rest of what Jesus said here. Him, my father will honor. 

" This line right here about he who loves his life will lose it and who hates his life in this world will keep it in eternal. Like that's, that's just so as good as it gets. Um, we are called to, we are sojourners and pilgrims. Our home is heaven, not this earth. Hebrews 11, talking about people in the old Testament. These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims. 

on the earth. 

You know, I've never lived through a martyr before. I've never seen, I've read about it, but I've never seen how one martyr can change millions of hearts. That in his death, people can buy Bibles for the first time, go to church for the first time, do all this, like, like they've, like, they've never done before. Like it's never happened. And I pray it's a revival. I pray it's just the beginning of a revival, a martyrdom where you can spread the gospel, spread the truth of the Bible, God's word so well in your life. 

Like, I mean, so as in like a certain amount of well, but then in your death, It's infinitely more. How amazing is that? And I'm certain that on Sunday during the memorial service, there's going to be a lot of accurate talk about Charlie Kirk being home. Never lived through a martyr. It's wonderful. I want to share another biblical illusion here. 

We talked on the show today about cancel culture and how there's a lot of people out there celebrating the death, the assassination of Charlie Kirk saying, you know, vile, like wicked, horrible stuff. Not even like he deserved it. That's bad enough, but just like, Oh, like he's dead. Oh yeah. It's awesome. 

Like, like, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa. 

Something is wrong with you. And. A lot of these people who are doing this are like teachers and nurses and professional class people, and they're being fired from their job. So the question is, should someone be fired? If you celebrate the death, the assassination of Charlie Cook, should you be fired for it? We talked about that for a good amount of time on the show today. 

The answer is yes, by the way. It's wholesale different from what the left did to conservatives for all these years. What the left did to conservatives, first of all, it was, they'd scour social media posts from decades ago to try to get something you said then that could be insulting or offensive now. They're like, oh man. The left did it to dead people. 

They canceled Dr. Seuss. They canceled Pepe Le Pew. They canceled Uncle Ben off the Rice Box. They canceled Aunt Jemima. I mean, they canceled fictional characters. That's how dedicated they were to just destruction. 

Then when Donald Trump won in 2016, and they've done this too with like Rush Limbaugh before, but in 2016, they tried to destroy every conservative group and media outlet that existed just for being, just for existing. Wouldn't say anything different. It was like they said something offensive in particular. It's just, oh, you're conservative, you're gone. And we don't do that. We're not doing that to the left. 

We're not saying, oh, you're a pro -choice, then you should be fired. It's, oh, you're celebrating the assassination of someone. This is a big problem. If you think that that's a big, big problem, And also, I don't trust you. I don't trust you anymore. As a teacher for shepherding the hearts and minds of kids, you're gone. 

You can't do that. You can't have that job anymore. Or if you're a nurse taking care of someone who might be a conservative, you're celebrating. I mean, you're supposed to be for life. You're celebrating someone getting shot in the neck because of their political beliefs. And I come in, I have the same political beliefs, and you're my nurse. 

This isn't going to work. This relationship isn't going to work. It's a high trust relationship, and by default, We assume it works, but I can't assume that anymore. You can't have that job. Actually, let me play this. This woman, she called in on the show today and had a really good story here. 

This is Becky. Becky is in Florida. Becky, how are you? 

Good, good. 

It's been a rough week, that's for sure. 

It has. 

So I am a nurse and not long before the election, I had a patient come in. She was having a textbook heart attack, happened to be a slow night. So I was able to spend time with her, you know, talk to her. We get her up to the cath lab to try and get a stent in. and she starts decompensating and I spent probably five minutes rubbing her head, talking to her about she said they were making hamburgers when this all happened, what was she going to have, what was her daughter's name and trying to say this without crying and I told her, we're going to put you to sleep until we can get this procedure done and she died and I was the last person to speak to her and that really hit me but what hit me And why it came back around was that she was wearing a Kamala Harris shirt, and I didn't care. And I have seen so many of my health care friends celebrating Charlie's death. 

And I think to myself, if I came in with a MAGA shirt or a Charlie shirt or a Trump shirt or whatever, even a God bless America shirt, are you going to treat me differently? Because it sure seems like it. And my job, I don't care what your political leanings are. I don't care if you're trans. I don't care if you're gay. I don't care. 

My job is to save your life. And I didn't care that that woman had a Kamala Harris shirt on, because you know what? She's still a human at the end of the day. And it just amazes me how many people have, you know, teachers, like you said, or nurses or doctors. Just your job is to save lives. not to celebrate death. 

And I don't know, it just, it just came back to me this week because I just, I didn't care. She was a human and I hope, and sorry to keep talking, but I didn't even want to be in that assignment that day. I tried to switch and talk about a God moment because I took the time to be with her as she died and give her memories that she will hopefully hold on to forever. 

If a nurse celebrates the assassination of Charlie Kirk, will they treat with as much love and care a conservative who is a fan of Charlie Kirk? One of the most powerful examples of what Becky told the story over there was the Tree of Life synagogue shooting. And the murderer there was then brought to a hospital nearby in Pittsburgh and was treated, cared for by doctors who go to that synagogue. This is who we are. And wicked people who reveal themselves, and I'm glad you are revealing yourself, actually. We have no more patience for this. 

We can't have it anymore. Now someone called into the show and said, uh, Oh, let me give you one more example. What the left is doing. They're talking about, Oh, what about Melissa Hortman? She was the Minnesota speaker of the house who was assassinated or killed, killed, assassinated in her house by this guy who went around to a couple of different politicians houses and tried to kill a bunch. Well, and they're like, Oh, where were you then? 

You know, where were you when this Democrat got, got killed? Not celebrating it. Let's start with that. Not jumping up and down, not saying you deserve it. So end of story. I don't even know what you're talking about. 

Like, what's, what's your point? You are celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Oh, what about Melissa Horthman? 

Okay. 

Like horrible. Like what do you want? I mean, I said it was horrible. I'm not celebrating it. Like you guys are. 

What do you like? 

What do you even bring that up for? Someone called in and talked about how it's good that people are speaking because it separates the chaff from the wheat. And I always liked this imagery in the Bible. Uh, you have wheat, that's the good stuff. And the outer layer of it is the chaff and it's got to be separated. So they would smash it on the ground. 

And the chaff would, because it's light, fly up in the air and float away and the wind would take it out. And the Bible often talks about separating the worthless chaff from the very valuable grains. Psalm 1, the wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. Let's drive the chaff away. Not just because of someone's political belief. No, no one's saying, Hey, if you don't, if you didn't subscribe to Charlie Kirk's Twitter page, then you need to be fired. 

You can disagree with everything he's ever said. Let's ask for some humanity. Here's the big. Wheat and chaff reference. This is Matthew 3 11, John the Baptist. He says, I baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 

His winnowing fork is in his hand and he will clear the threshing floor and gather his wheat into the barn. Chaff, he will burn with unquenchable fire. Don't be chaff. And in America right now, it's okay to have people separated. It's good to separate the wheat and the chaff. the chaff. 

I'll end with this that I read in my new book, Scripture Emblems and Allegories. This one is about the sun of truth. And it's an image of a mountain with a sun up in the air and two men, one walking towards the sun, one walking away from the sun. And I am going to quote all of it. It's two pages. Seeware, among the mountain heights, a long straight path stretches itself till it's lost in the distance beyond. 

The sun pours wide his rays of living light, illuminating the path and shedding luster all around. Two travelers are pursuing their different routes. One advances towards the sun. His shadow is behind him. His path is bright before him. As he proceeds, his shadow diminishes while his path grows brighter and brighter until directly overhead, The sun pours the full tide of its glory upon him and the whole of his shadow disappears. 

The other has turned his back upon the orb of day. See, he follows his own shadow. It darkens his pathway before him. Now he leaves the track. His shadow lengthens more and more. He wanders into sunken labyrinths and finally loses himself amidst the darkness of night. 

How many people have you talked about recently, whether it's the trans church shooter recently or the guy, the train in Charlotte who stabbed the woman in the neck or this is a murder of Charlie Kerr. There's so many, so many stories. Even ones that don't get as much headlines like carjackers in DC. It's like, whoa, you have lost yourself amidst the darkness of night. This emblem represents the moral world. The sun designates the sun of truth. 

The travelers denote first those who follow the light. Their path shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect day. Their souls become enlightened. vivified and purified. Darkness disappears and heavenly light shines on their souls forever. Secondly, it signifies those who turn their backs on the light and who, as they journey, wander farther and farther from his bright beams. 

Their path becomes darker and darker. Their shadow lengthens as they proceed until having forsaken altogether the way of truth. They lose themselves among the wilds of error and perish in the darkness of everlasting night. They perish in the darkness of everlasting night. Where shines the sun of truth? In the Holy Bible. 

The scriptures are a light to the weary traveler, illuminating all his goings, pointing out his proper path, and showing where the mountains of error lift up their desolating heads. This sun of truth shines on the traveler himself. It discovers, oh, this is so good. It discovers his ignorance, guilt. This is so important. The light doesn't illuminate how great I am. 

This book was written in the 1850s. They had it right there. It's not like, oh, the sun. I'm so glad the sun is shining on me. I'm awesome. I am great. No, the sun of truth discover, it causes the person to discover his ignorance, guilt, danger, helplessness, and at the same time, his immortality. 

Again, it shines and he beholds Calvary with all its weeping tragedies. It reveals to him now his wisdom, justification, sanctification, and redemption, where shines the son of truth and the person of Jesus Christ. He who wisely chooses, uses the light of the scriptures will be led to contemplate him who's the light of the world, the son of righteousness, the splendid glory of Jehovah, the way, the life, and the truth. The Christian, following the light of the glorious sun of truth, discovers ever -opening mines of richest knowledge, fountains of living waters rolled or treasures at his feet. Trees of life overhang his pathway and drop into his lap their golden stores till at length he beholds the opening gates to the new Jerusalem, where light and truth, their mystic powers combine and over the realms of love forever shine. The infidel," his last paragraph here, the infidel, turning his back upon the light, walks in the vain shadow of his own opinions. 

Oh, I got to read this on the radio, right? Don't people need to hear this too on the radio? Walk in the vain shadow of his own opinions. Me, I'm perfect. I know everything. I know what's right. 

Darker and yet more dark. I am God, says Satan. Darker and yet more dark the shadow grows. He waxes worse and worse. One truth after another is given up. One lie after another is embraced. 

Farther and farther he wanders from God and bliss.
