CrossPolitic Show
Hosted by Pastor Toby, Choc Knox, Waterboy · EN
CrossPolitic (Christ over politics) mixes the taboo formula of faith, culture, and politics to bring the clarity of the gospel into muddle America. We are a community of Christians who desire to see the Lordship of Christ in every corner of our culture, reigning over every politician, and changing every individual for our good and His glory. Our hosts are pastors, deacons, and filmmakers, who long to see our fallen and broken nation recognize Jesus as our redeemer. Our hosts have interviewed notable presidential candidates (such as Senator Ted Cruz and Dr. Ben Carson), written books, preach the Gospel, make films, and utilize every avenue possible to declare the gospel of our Lord to the whole world.

Transcribe →Can a War Be HOLY?
1w ago00:45:30Tap to summarizeHoly Wars — Show Notes: Fight Laugh Feast Documentary In this Fight Laugh Feast documentary, CrossPolitic traces the inescapable question of holiness from Moses at the burning bush through the Great Awakenings, the Crusades, and into the present culture war — arguing that holiness is not private sentiment but public, world-transforming fire. Featuring historical and theological commentary from Joe Boot and others, the documentary confronts counterfeit holiness in both secular activism and charismatic revivalism, and calls Christians to fight a holy war with the weapons God has actually given them: his Word, his Spirit, and his people. Timestamps 0:00 — Intro — Moses, the burning bush, and the holy ground that launched a nation 0:43 — How we've privatized holiness — and who filled the public square when we did 1:53 — Holiness is inescapable: not whether, but which 3:06 — The First Great Awakening — Edwards, justification by faith, and national cohesion 4:14 — From holy ground to holy war: how the Great Awakening built the War for Independence 5:46 — The Second Great Awakening — emotionalism, manipulation, cults, and cultural chaos 9:25 — Activism fills the vacuum — and the turn toward natural law and raw political power 11:03 — Sponsor: Patriot Mobile 12:22 — What holiness actually is: the fiery presence of the triune God 14:36 — Creation, the Fall, sacrifice, and the way back into God's presence 18:44 — Golgotha — the curtain torn, the fire unleashed, we are holy ground 21:38 — Is actual war holy? Just war theory: Augustine, Aquinas, and the Reformers 23:24 — The Black-Robed Regiment, the lesser magistrate, and the War for Independence 27:43 — The Crusades — were they just wars? Separating the first, fourth, seventh, and eighth 31:20 — Counterfeit holiness: BLM as pilgrimage, anti-racism as penance, revivalism as emotional currency 34:20 — The question before this generation: Christ's finished holiness or substitutes that leave ash 34:45 — Fight Laugh Feast 2026: Holy Wars — speakers, theme, and why we're gathering 36:18 — We are that bush — holy war in family, church, and state until the earth is full of his glory 43:46 — Deus vult — God wills it. He always has. He is doing it. Fight Laugh Feast 2026: Holy Wars Join us October 1–3 in Franklin, Tennessee for the Fight Laugh Feast Conference.

3w ago00:32:22Tap to summarizeCrossPolitic One-on-One — Show Notes: Chris Stadler On this episode of CrossPolitic One-on-One, the Waterboy welcomes Chris Stadler, creative strategist, former University of Oregon instructor, and founder of chrisstadler.com, into the studio to talk about why most marketing fails to win hearts and minds — and how a disciplined, logical creative strategy process gives businesses, churches, and Christian institutions the tools to differentiate, build real meaning, and take the dominion mandate seriously in the marketplace. Chris breaks down his three-step process — positioning analysis, target audience recommendation, and the creative brief — and the Waterboy explains why your marketing department should be the biggest risk-taker in your company (and why your HR department might need to be fired).

Transcribe →Can Roman Catholicism Build Great Nations?
May 1500:34:29Tap to summarizeAn emperor stands barefoot in the snow for three days. Not a prisoner. Not a peasant. The ruler of Christendom, waiting for a bishop to open a door. That is not a medieval curiosity. That is a system. And that system had a logic. A bishop with no army teaches an emperor with every army how to repent. But watch what happens next. In 500 years, that prophetic voice becomes the hand that places the crown. The same weapon that stopped a massacre at Thessalonica is now the weapon that puts a king in the snow at Canossa. Same tool. Completely different purpose. By the High Middle Ages, Rome was not a voice outside the throne. Rome was the operating system of Western Civilization, and grace would either flow through her pipes or not flow at all. Then one monk reads his Bible. And here in 2026, some of the loudest voices on the right are telling you that the machine he dismantled is exactly what America needs now. That the Protestant experiment produced the chaos we are drowning in. That the only way home is across the Tiber. Is that true? And if it isn't, what actually built the freest nation in the history of man?

May 400:49:14Tap to summarizeOn this episode of CrossPolitic, Gabe welcomes Dr. Richard Eggleston and attorney Todd Richardson from Clarkston, Washington into the studio to talk about the ongoing legal battle over a doctor's First Amendment right to speak freely on COVID-19. They discuss why the Washington Medical Commission's attempt to silence a retired physician for writing opinion columns in a local newspaper has now landed at the doorstep of the United States Supreme Court with NBA Hall of Famer John Stockton as a co-plaintiff and the fundamental right of every American to hear the truth from their doctor hanging in the balance.
