The Heidi St. John Podcast

AI is changing everything—from how we work to how we relate to one another—but the Church was never called to hide. Today I’m joined by my friend Kary Oberbrunner for a timely conversation about faith, technology, entrepreneurship, and why safety can’t be our highest pursuit. We talk about artificial intimacy, raising discerning kids in a digital age, the cost of authentic leadership, and why bold faith has always required risk. This is a hope-filled reminder that God’s people are called to engage the culture with wisdom, courage, and truth.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

When a culture loses moral clarity, it doesn’t choose righteousness—it chooses chaos. From Venezuela to the streets of America, we’re watching people defend tyranny and reject truth. In this episode, I break down the spiritual roots of today’s outrage, the role of education and media, and why silence is no longer an option. God always preserves a remnant—and this is our moment to stand.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

Our culture is lying about identity—and the consequences are devastating. In this bold follow-up conversation, Walt Heyer exposes how trauma and ideology fuel confusion, and why real compassion means telling the truth and returning to God’s design. This is a hard conversation, but it’s one we can’t afford to ignore.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.
