How did Marxism take over once-Christian universities and help fuel the kind of radicalization that led to the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk? Frank sits down with Ratio Christi president Corey Miller to discuss his new book, ‘The Progressive Miseducation of America‘, an eye-opening look at how our universities have polluted the cultural landscape we live in today and turned into breeding grounds for ideological extremism. They tackle critical questions like:

  • How did Corey predict the current wave of anti-Christian hostility years before it erupted?
  • Why did Corey need legal representation before speaking at a college in Utah?
  • How has Marxism made its way into the Church?
  • What is the core idea behind Marxism and why is it so dangerous?
  • How is “hate speech” being weaponized to silence biblical truth?
  • What is the #1 predictor of poverty in the United States?
  • How should Christians and the Church respond to this cultural revolution?

We’re living in a time when the “free exchange of ideas” has been replaced by mobs, censorship, intimidation, and violence. The revolution that began on campus is now consuming the culture, and the church must respond before it’s too late! This discussion won’t be comfortable, but it’s crucial. Be sure to pre-order your copy of ‘The Progressive Miseducation of America‘ today!

Conspiracy theories are everywhere in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s tragic assassination—but how much of what you’ve heard is actually true? Was Tyler Robinson really acting alone? Could there have been a second shooter? And why is the FBI withholding details from the public?

This week on I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist, cold-case homicide detective J. Warner Wallace joins Frank to use his expertise in criminal investigations to tackle the biggest questions circulating online about Charlie’s death. Together, they’ll expose why conspiracies thrive, debunk false claims, and explore how real investigators approach cases like this with truth instead of speculation.

  • Why do conspiracy theories spread so quickly?
  • Is there any evidence of a second shooter?
  • Could Tyler Robinson’s Discord messages have been staged?
  • What role do autopsies play in homicide cases?
  • Why isn’t J. Warner Wallace convinced by these conspiracy theories?

As the world continues to process this tragedy and await justice, Frank and Jim will put some of these baseless speculations to rest and point listeners back to the ultimate hope found in Christ alone. If you’ve been wrestling with the rumors about the assassination and aren’t sure what to believe, tune in and hear the facts for yourself!

You would think that when hearts become open to the gospel, Christians would rejoice and get to work. Instead, progressive “Christians” are warning about conservative politics. In fact, some of them chose to use Charlie Kirk’s assassination and memorial service as an opportunity to discourage Christians from engaging in politics rather than encouraging them to share the Gospel!

Today, our friend Alisa Childers joins Frank to expose the subtle lies of this movement. Alisa and Frank tackle important and timely questions like:

  • What were Alisa’s biggest takeaways from Charlie’s memorial service?
  • What is the “Third Way” strategy progressives have been advancing for years, a strategy designed to confuse believers, infiltrate churches, and brand faithful Christians as “Christian Nationalists”?
  • How do you spot warning signs in your church?
  • Was Charlie’s memorial service a dangerous display of Christian Nationalism?
  • What’s the meaning behind the “I Am Charlie” movement?
  • How do we best help those with tender hearts who are starting to move closer to God?
  • What are the six lies of Progressive Christianity every Christian needs to recognize?
  • Why should Christians be engaged in politics instead of backing down?

You’ll see why standing for truth and even your local law enforcement matters more now than ever. Be sure to pre-order a copy of Alisa’s new Student Edition of ‘Another Gospel’, which includes discussion questions for young adults and stay tuned for upcoming guests like archaeologist Titus Kennedy, Rob McCoy (Charlie Kirk’s pastor), along with more details coming soon surrounding the security details of the tragic event that took place on 9/10/2025.

This week’s episode is the most difficult we’ve ever recorded. As an eyewitness to the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, Frank will share his firsthand account of those harrowing moments on 9/10/2025 as well as offer a tribute to Charlie’s life and legacy—a person who lived 24/7 for Jesus and courageously proclaimed truth while receiving threats against his life.

Charlie loved his wife Erika and their children deeply, encouraged his closest friends through Scripture, and adamantly worked to let those in the TPUSA family know that they were valued as he modeled great leadership. He was a man of action and integrity, an evangelist and apologist, generous and kind–especially to those who opposed him, and courageous in the face of a hostile culture. Frank will answer questions like:

    • How did Frank and Charlie become friends and why did Charlie work so hard to unite people?
    • How did Charlie combine courage and humility to influence millions of young people?
    • What were Frank’s last conversations with Charlie?
    • How should Christians respond to those who are celebrating the assassination?
    • Where do we go from here and how should Christians respond to this tragic event?

Listeners will also hear how Charlie’s family and team displayed incredible strength in the wake of tragedy, and how TPUSA will move forward stronger than ever. This is not just a tribute—it’s a call to action for Christians everywhere to carry forward Charlie’s legacy by boldly proclaiming the Gospel, ensuring his mission to reach the next generation for Christ does not end.

Frank speaks briefly on the horrific murder of his dear friend Charlie Kirk. He’ll say more in the coming days. But now Charlie would want you to hear from Pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, who like Charlie, takes a bold stand for Christ.

Jack shows how in his new book, ‘Called to Take a Bold Stand: Resilient and Effective Faith for a Godless Age’. With over 35 years of ministry experience, Jack shares why sanctification, active discipleship, and making the Gospel central are the keys to standing firm in a world that opposes the truth through persecution, cancel culture, and politics. Together, Frank and Jack tackle questions like:

  • Can Christians today impact the world like the early church?
  • How did Jack rally his local community to come together and stop a dangerous bill in California that put children at risk for human trafficking?
  • How does the Holy Spirit work through us today?
  • What’s the biggest problem associated with a feelings-based, experience-driven faith?
  • How do we hear from the Lord?
  • How has cancer been the most powerful evangelical tool in the Hibbs family?
  • Why does God use weak people to fulfill His purpose and plan?

Get ready to be inspired, equipped, and challenged to stand boldly for righteousness and embrace the Great Commission. If your goal is to “make Heaven crowded” be sure to pre-order your copy of ‘Called to Take a Bold Stand‘ today!

Everyone you love will die. Everything you build will crumble. Everything you say will be forgotten. Everything you do will come to nothing. You and your identity will die and vanish, UNLESS…the resurrection is true. Yes, if Jesus of Nazareth really did rise from the dead–GAME OVER–Christianity is true! But wait…isn’t a miracle like the resurrection a little too hard to believe for a rational person?

Join Frank during his recent talk at Grace Community Church in Sarasota, FL where he draws a striking parallel between the sinking of the Titanic and the resurrection of Jesus. You’ll learn why the Gospel accounts are not myths or legends, but credible eyewitness testimony that can stand up to scrutiny. Along the way, he answers pressing questions like:

  • How do we know miracles like the resurrection are even possible and why are they so rare?
  • What’s the greatest miracle in the Bible? (no, it’s not the resurrection!)
  • Why are some atheists beginning to admit the evidence for Christianity’s greatest miracle?
  • Do Bart Ehrman’s so-called “contradictions” in the Gospel accounts defeat Christianity?
  • What does the Titanic have to do with the afterlife and the resurrection of Jesus?
  • Why is it highly unlikely that the Jews invented the resurrection story?
  • How do we know Hell is real?

There is an afterlife and what you do here on earth DOES matter. Not only for today, but also for eternity. The question remains for all of us: are you going up or are you going down? The choice is yours, choose wisely!
