Psalm 59 doesn’t sanitize evil, and neither do we. We start with David’s plea, “Rescue me,” and connect it to the kind of headlines that leave families angry, heartsick, and on edge. Then we slow down and do what a biblical worldview demands: pray, read the text, and ask what obedience looks like when the world feels lawless.

From there we get specific about Christian marriage. We read Proverbs 31 and talk about why “noble character” is not a vibe, it’s a pattern of life shaped by the fear of the Lord. We challenge the way modern culture twists Scripture into permission slips for self-first priorities, and we point husbands and wives back to the steady work of serving God, honoring vows, and protecting kids. If you’re searching for practical Christian marriage advice, biblical gender roles, or what Proverbs 31 really means, you’ll hear a clear, unapologetic argument for ordered priorities.

We also walk through Luke 2 and highlight Mary and Joseph choosing God’s will over appearances, plus Simeon’s reminder that Jesus brings salvation for all people. The back half turns to leadership and national direction with Proverbs 11:14, a Medal of Honor account of service, and quotes from American presidents on the Bible’s influence on rights and law. We close with prayer for families, those who protect us, and a return to God at the center of American life.
