The Heidi St. John Podcast

In every generation, God raises up shepherds who are willing to speak the truth—even when it costs them. In this Shepherds in the Storm episode, I’m joined by my friend Pastor Phil Hopper, lead pastor of Abundant Life Church, to talk about why the church was never meant to be silent. We unpack the fear keeping pastors quiet, why today’s biggest issues are biblical—not political—and why courage in the pulpit matters more than ever. If you’re a pastor, church leader, or believer longing for clarity and conviction in a confusing culture, this conversation will encourage you.

For a long time, we trusted our public libraries to be safe, neutral places for families and kids. But that’s just not true anymore. In this episode, I talk honestly about how taxpayer-funded libraries have shifted from simply offering books to actively promoting ideology—and why so many parents feel dismissed or even silenced when they raise concerns. I’ll share how we got here, why the American Library Association matters, and what everyday moms and dads can actually do about it—from showing up locally to building better alternatives that protect kids and respect families.

We’re living in a moment where a teenager with a phone can shape theology faster than a pastor with a Bible—and the result is confusion, compromise, and a “feel-good” faith that can’t save. In this eye-opening conversation, Mike Winger joins me to expose what’s really driving digital discipleship, why “almost right” theology spreads so fast, and what parents, pastors, and leaders can do right now to anchor the next generation in Scripture—before the algorithm does.
