The Straight Truth Podcast: Christian truth in an increasingly secular world. Join Dr. Richard Caldwell, Dr. Josh Philpot, and their guests as they discuss news events, current affairs, and cultural issues from a Biblical point of view.
A weekly opinion show hosted by Dr. Richard Caldwell and Dr. Josh Philpot. Available as an audio podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, or as a video podcast on YouTube and Rumble. Episodes run about 10 minutes, and a new one releases every Thursday.
The topics we discuss are current events, matters that challenge traditional Christian values, and questions submitted by our audience. Dr. Caldwell, Dr. Philpot, and their guests answer them with Biblical truth from a Christian, conservative point of view — holding that the Holy Bible is the inspired, infallible, and inerrant Word of God, and the final authority for every question.
Perfect for anyone seeking to strengthen their faith, learn how to approach difficult topics from a Christian point of view, share their faith with unbelieving friends, weigh their own beliefs under the lens of Scripture, and interpret current news events from a Biblical perspective.
