Former U.S. Senator and university president Ben Sasse faced a stage-four pancreatic cancer diagnosis in late 2025—a stark "death sentence" that forced him to confront mortality head-on. Instead of despair, he embraced family, faith, and resurrection hope, transforming his final days into a powerful testimony of purposeful living. Mike Slater, host of Politics By Faith, draws inspiration from Sasse's journey to show how facing death reorients priorities away from fleeting pursuits toward what lasts forever. Blending this real-life story with timeless wisdom literature from Scripture, the special reveals how an eternal mindset brings deeper joy, love, and faithfulness in Christ. This is part two of two.

Mike Slater confronts the spiritual dimensions of global Christian persecution, drawing from Ephesians 6:12 to expose how unseen "principalities and powers" manifest in earthly systems of oppression, authoritarian control, extremist ideologies, and societal rejection.

Scott Adams has passed away at the age of 68. He was one of the first cultural figures to support Donald Trump for president. The left hates him, of course. But more importantly for us, on his deathbed, he said, "I accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior". Is that enough to go to heaven?

The lights are up, the sales are relentless, and “Christmas” is everywhere—but is Jesus? In this special holiday episode, Mike Slater asks the question every serious Christian has to face: How do we celebrate the birth of the King when the culture has turned His day into a frenzy of consumerism, sentimentality, and mandatory cheer?

Practical, honest, and rooted in Scripture, this is Politics by Faith for the most wonderful—and most challenging—time of the year. This is part two of two.
