The Eric Metaxas Show

I spoke with @megbasham on the growing use of “power imbalance” narratives to redefine sin, agency, and accountability. She challenges the Marxist framings of victimhood, argue for moral clarity and personal responsibility, and warn that collapsing biblical categories ultimately harms both truth and genuine victims.Sponsors: Christian Solidarity International: http://csi-usa.org/metaxas/ Legal Help Center - Get Free Legal Help Today: http://legalhelpcenter.com Help Save Lives in Israel Today: http://savinglifeisrael.orgMyPillow — Save BIG with code ERIC: http://mypillow.com ten Boom Coffee— Save 10% with code ERIC: http://tenboom.coffeeSecure Your Future with a Gold IRA: http://metaxasgoldira.com

Today on the @EricMetaxasShow, I spoke with @LarryTaunton about the Venezuela operation story, why they frame it as America First, and how Venezuela, oil, and migration connect to China, Cuba, and U.S. leverage. They also get into the Monroe Doctrine idea, the @WorlEconomicF, and a discussion of Smartmatic, voting machines, and the 2020 election debate.

Rod Martin reacts to the Maduro extraction story and unpack what it means for Venezuela, cartels, oil, and American power. They connect the fallout to Cuba, Iran, China, Greenland, and the broader Trump doctrine, then pivot into the 2020 election debate, Smartmatic, and what they think comes next in the fight over election systems and the deep state.TODAY'S SPONSORS:Christian Solidarity International: https://csi-usa.org/metaxas/✡️ Help Save Lives in Israel TODAY: https://savinglifeisrael.org/LegalHelp CenterGet Free Legal Help Today: https://legalhelpcenter.com/MyPillow — Save BIG with code ERIC: https://mypillow.comten Boom Coffee— Save 10% with code ERIC: https://tenboom.coffee

Eric Metaxas sits down with Naomi Wolf to unpack the Socrates in the City gala, the crisis of Western civilization, and why the world they glimpsed that night is worth fighting for. Together they trace how cultural elites, media, and global institutions have undermined family, faith, and free speech for decades, and why ordinary people are finally waking up in America and Europe. From the sexual revolution and feminist debates to immigration, Islamism, antisemitism, and the breakdown of civil society, this is a sober but hopeful call to defend truth, beauty, and ordered liberty while there is still time.

Eric Metaxas welcomes Pastor Greg Laurie to talk about the viral moment when President Trump told a wedding crowd that Eric is the one who will get him into heaven and what that really means. The conversation turns to the powerful evangelistic crusade Greg just held at UVU in Utah, at the very place where Charlie Kirk was murdered, and how thousands responded to the gospel. Eric and Greg also address the shocking rise of antisemitism, the modern miracle of Israel, and why this moment feels like the last days. Along the way they talk about LDS friends in Utah, revival, bold evangelism, and what courage looks like for believers right now.Sponsors:MyPillow — Save BIG with code ERIC: https://www.mypillow.com/ten Boom Coffee— Save 10% with code ERIC: https://tenboom.coffee/Christian Solidarity International: https://csi-usa.org/metaxas/Legal Help Center - Get Free Legal Help Today: https://www.legalhelpcenter.com/Help Save Lives in Israel Today: https://www.savinglifeisrael.org/

I recently spoke with Dr. Carlos Campo CEO and President of Museum of the Bible on the new extraordinary Dead Sea Scrolls exhibit now on display in partnership with the Israel Antiquities Authority and Running Subway. The exhibition features biblical texts and scrolls from the community at Qumran, as well as hundreds of artifacts. The scrolls provide unique insights into the formation of the texts that make up our Bibles today.

Eric Metaxas begins the episode with Todd Chatman from Christian Solidarity International, who shares the stunning reality that slavery is still happening today in Sudan and explains how CSI has already freed more than 120,000 people. Todd describes how every $250 gift directly rescues an enslaved person and provides the essentials needed to start a new life. In the second half, John Zmirak joins Eric for a sobering look at America’s cultural decline and asks whether we are drifting toward a soft totalitarian state. Zmirak explains how ideology, propaganda, and weaponized compassion are reshaping society and why Christians must recover discernment before freedoms vanish. The episode connects global injustice with domestic cultural decay in one urgent conversation.

In this episode, Eric Metaxas reveals the surprising true story behind the Pilgrims and Squanto — a part of American history most people were never told. We talk about God’s providence, the first Thanksgiving, the role of faith in survival, and how the real story of Squanto has been erased from mainstream education. This conversation highlights why America’s origins are deeply connected to the Bible, Christianity, and divine intervention. If you care about truth, history, and the foundations of our nation, you don’t want to miss this.Sponsors:Christian Solidarity International: ⁠https://csi-usa.org/metaxas/MyPillow — Save BIG with code ERIC: https://www.mypillow.com/ten Boom Coffee— Save 10% with code ERIC: https://tenboom.coffee/Legal Help Center - Get Free Legal Help Today: https://www.legalhelpcenter.com/⏱️ TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro0:24 Thanksgiving And Christmas2:14 The Miracle Story Of Squanto10:53 Squanto Saves The Pilgrims18:14 Jerry Newcombe Joins21:08 God’s Hand In American Founding
