The Alisa Childers Podcast

What if the biggest threat behind today's alien obsession isn't extraterrestrial at all?

Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day has people asking questions about God, creation, and whether discovering intelligent life would shatter the Christian worldview. But would it?
In this episode, I review the film, respond to its biggest theological claims, explore what the Bible actually says about extraterrestrial life, and explain why the existence of aliens wouldn't undermine Christianity.

Then, former occultist Jac Marino joins me to share her chilling story of what she once believed were alien encounters, including abduction experiences, channeling, and supernatural phenomena. Today, she believes those experiences were real, but not extraterrestrial.

Could the modern fascination with UFOs and "the grays" be pointing to something far more spiritual? Join us as we separate biblical truth from speculation and examine one of today's most intriguing—and controversial—subjects.

Were Christians always pro-life, or is opposition to abortion a recent political invention? Did the Southern Baptist Convention prove that Christians were historically pro-choice?

In this episode, Alisa responds to claims made on The Joe Rogan Experience by Texas State Representative James Talarico, who argues that the Christian pro-life position has no historical foundation and that abortion and homosexuality only became central Christian concerns in recent decades.

Looking at Scripture, the earliest Christian writings, and the historical record, Alisa traces the consistent Christian witness from the first century onward. You'll discover how the early church confronted a culture where abortion, infanticide, and sexual immorality were widely accepted—and why Christians stood apart by affirming the dignity of every human being as made in the image of God.

Topics include:
Was the early church pro-life?
What did the Didache, Epistle of Barnabas, and early church fathers teach about abortion?
Was the Southern Baptist Convention historically pro-choice?
Why did early Christians challenge the sexual ethics of the Roman Empire?
Are Christians making abortion and sexuality the primary issues, or responding to the issues culture has made primary?

Whether you've heard these historical claims before or are encountering them for the first time, this episode examines what the earliest Christians actually believed—and why that history still matters today.

Truth. Love. Justice. Tolerance. Authenticity.

Everyone uses these words—but are we even talking about the same things?
In this Q&A episode, Alisa tackles one of the biggest challenges facing Christians today: the redefinition of language. From moral relativism to "love is love," from authenticity culture to social justice, discover how changing the meaning of words can completely reshape the way we think about God, morality, identity, and reality itself.

If you've ever been told you're "unloving" for holding a biblical view, or wondered why conversations about truth seem impossible, this episode will help you cut through the confusion and recover clear, biblical definitions.

What happens when popular Christian voices claim that hierarchy is the root cause of harm in marriage, sex, and the church?

In this episode, I listen through key clips from a recent Theology Gals interview with Sheila Wray Gregoire and offer a live, real-time response. I examine claims about complementarianism, egalitarianism, purity culture, deconstruction, women's well-being, marriage dynamics, and the future of the church.

Rather than simply telling you what to think, I hope to model the process of discernment...evaluating arguments, questioning assumptions, examining methodology, and comparing every claim to Scripture. Along the way, I highlight points of agreement, challenge what I believes are misrepresentations of complementarian theology, and explores how Christians can thoughtfully engage influential voices online.

Whether you're wrestling with questions about marriage, church leadership, deconstruction, or how to evaluate the content you consume, this episode offers a practical look at biblical discernment in action.

When YouTubers Jesse and Ashley Ridgeway announced that they had aborted their baby after receiving a prenatal Down syndrome diagnosis, the story sparked intense online debate. But what if the voices most needed in that conversation were the parents who received similar diagnoses—and chose life?

In this episode, Alisa is joined by two mothers whose children were diagnosed with chromosomal abnormalities before birth. Carli's son, Shep, has Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), and Mandi's daughter, Ellie, has Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome), a condition often described by medical professionals as "incompatible with life."

Together, they share their deeply personal journeys of receiving devastating prenatal diagnoses, navigating fear and uncertainty, confronting the messages they received from the medical community, and ultimately choosing to welcome their children into the world. They also respond to the Ridgeways' public statements and discuss the broader cultural implications of selective abortion based on disability.

This conversation explores suffering, trust in God, the value of every human life, and the unexpected joy that can emerge from circumstances many people are told to fear. Whether you're facing a difficult diagnosis, walking alongside someone who is, or simply seeking to think more deeply about these issues, this episode offers hope, perspective, and encouragement.
