Can you manifest the life you want just by believing hard enough? James and I dig into the viral manifestation trend, why so much of it has crept into the church, and why I’m grateful God doesn’t always give me what I want. Let Him write your story. He knows the best ones. Alliance Defending Freedom: https://JoinADF.com/Kirk Red Truck Men: https://redtruckmen.org Sign up for Kirk's newsletter: https://kirkcameron.beehiiv.com/subsc...

This Monday, let’s talk about the fear of making the wrong decision. The wrong job, the wrong move, the wrong relationship. I wrestled with that worry for decades until I discovered something that gave me real peace: God reroutes. When you miss an exit, your GPS doesn’t tell you the whole trip is ruined. It just says “rerouting.” From Romans 8:28 to the prodigal son to Paul shipwrecked on a beach, we’ll see that you can’t accidentally ruin God’s plan for your life. Your peace doesn’t come from making perfect choices. It comes from a Father who stays faithful even when you blow it. Stop asking God for the whole map. Ask Him for enough light to take the next faithful step.

Christa Pike tortured and murdered a 19-year-old girl in 1995. Last month, Tennessee tried to execute her, and she survived. Now the question is whether they get to try again. I want to go beyond the headlines and ask what God actually says about capital punishment, because forgiveness and justice aren’t enemies. Where do you stand? Tell me in the comments, and bring your Bible.

Why is Gen Z more politically extreme than ever? Is it what they believe, or what they’ve inherited? Today, we get into how the algorithm rewards attacking the other side, and why a generation that grew up through Covid and an economy they can’t get ahead in is reaching for radical solutions. But the fix isn’t your favorite influencer. It’s getting our hearts right before God and still loving the person on the other side of the aisle.

We’ve never been more connected, and we’ve never felt more alone. Why? I think C.S. Lewis put his finger on it decades ago: we want love without the risk. In this episode, I unpack what Lewis wrote in The Four Loves about the heart that’s locked away to keep it safe, and why the very thing we do to protect ourselves is making us lonelier. Jesus didn’t love from a safe distance. He moved toward us, all the way to the cross. And I’ll give you one simple action step to start pushing back against our black pill culture today.

Seven college men accused of assaulting one incapacitated young woman. A Snapchat message allegedly inviting more guys into the room. And I keep asking one question: where were the good men? Today I’m talking about the Cornell lawsuit, and the 1,000 pound elephant that the legal debate keeps walking past: the character of our men. We’ll look at Lot’s catastrophic failure in Genesis 19, Quasimodo crying “Sanctuary!”, and Jesus, the ultimate hero, who laid down His life for His bride. Then I’ll share an uncomfortable suspicion about why so many young men lack moral courage, and it starts with us dads, pastors, and grandfathers. Dads, if your son got that message, what would he do? And has he seen that kind of courage in you? Let’s get to work.

My son James picked today's topic: why is marriage becoming so unattractive to young people? In 1993, over half of Americans ages 25 to 29 were married. Today it's just 29%. We dig into the money pressure of homes costing four times a family's income, hookup culture, cohabitation going from 1 in 100 couples to 3 out of 4, divorce scars, and a culture that keeps young men from ever growing up. A lot of people think they can hack the system and get the benefits of marriage without the covenant. How's that working for us? God's design isn't a cage. It's the map home to blessing, protection, and real joy. And who you marry is one of the two biggest decisions you'll ever make, so choose carefully. Plus, James settles Kirk vs. Picard once and for all. (Kirk wins. Obviously.) Are you married, waiting, or wondering if it's even worth it? Tell me in the comments.

What if God never gives you the life you've been praying for? The marriage, the money, the healing, the happy family. Would He still be good to you? After 40 years of following Jesus, I've noticed something a lot of us Christians do without realizing it. We turn God into a delivery system, a kind of spiritual Amazon Prime. We follow Him, and He drops off the good life at our front door. But the Bible doesn't present God as the middleman to something better. He is the treasure. When Christ becomes your definition of the good life, you can enjoy His gifts without worshiping them, and when those gifts are taken away, your whole world doesn't have to collapse.

Millie Bobby Brown just adopted her second child, and when I heard the news, I smiled. Adoption wasn't plan B for our family either. It was plan A. Chelsea was adopted, four of our six kids were adopted, and today I'm sharing what that journey taught me about the heart of God. From Moses in the basket to Joseph raising Jesus as his own, adoption runs all through the Bible. And if you belong to Christ, it's your story too. God doesn't just forgive you from a distance. He brings you into His family, gives you His name, and invites you to call Him Father. Best Christmas Ever: https://secure.qgiv.com/event/kirkcam...

Why are millions of Americans taking a diabetes drug when they don't have diabetes? James picked this one for today's Dangerous Conversation, and roughly 1 in 9 adults are now on Ozempic or another GLP-1 just to lose weight. We dig into what these drugs actually do, and what happens when people stop. Most of the weight comes right back. Great for the drug companies, not so great for you. I also share how I've been eating for the last three years and why I think the real answer is eating the way God designed us to eat. Is Ozempic a miracle or a trap? Let me know in the comments.

Are you trying to impress everybody? Your looks, your success, your resume? That's exhausting, and it's the wrong audience. Samuel was impressed by tall, kingly Eliab, but God chose the overlooked shepherd boy David. God looks straight at the heart. When you learn what God values, it changes how you see yourself, your spouse, and your kids. And it frees you from chasing everybody else's applause. Let's talk about what really leaves an impression on God. Christian Healthcare Ministries: https://CHMinistries.org/Kirk Check Your Registration - https://tools.vote.online/embeds/chec...

Did the devil make you do it? Or was it your own heart? Spiritual warfare talk has been driving me a little crazy lately, so I've got a hot take. If Jesus crushed the serpent's head and holds ALL authority in heaven and on earth, how much does that leave for Satan? Christians sometimes talk like there's a demon behind every bush waiting to ruin date night. But Jesus said evil comes out of the human heart, and there's enough sin in there to scare a demon to death. So today I'm tackling the big questions. Can a Christian be possessed? What does D-Day have to do with Christ's victory over Satan? And why is studying the darkness one of the biggest mistakes the church makes? The answer isn't obsession with demons. It's saturation in the Word of God. Know the truth. Follow the King. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Is it ever okay for a Christian to lie? If a Nazi officer knocks on your door asking about the family hiding in your house, what do you say? James picked this one after a Christian book club insisted every lie is a sin, no exceptions. We dig into Rahab, the Hebrew midwives, Michal helping David escape, and what the ninth commandment actually says. This isn't a license to deceive for your own gain. That's always sin. But God's law was never meant to be a weapon in the hands of evildoers. Where do you land? Drop your thoughts in the comments and we may read them on a future Monday episode.

Have you ever prayed with everything in you, believed without a doubt, and then watched the answer go the other way? I've walked alongside people whose faith fell apart in that exact moment, and I think it's because we've been handed a definition of faith the Bible never actually gave us. In this episode we go straight to Scripture. To Abraham. To Mary at the foot of the cross. To three young men in front of a blazing furnace who said, "but even if he does not." True faith was never deciding what God should do and believing hard enough to make it happen. It's trusting who He is when you can't see what He's doing. Grab your Bible and pull up a chair. This one might change the way you pray.

Is AI actually making us smarter, or is it quietly making us dumber? That's the question I couldn't shake this week. We've handed our kids machines that answer every question instantly, and we call them smart for knowing how to use them. But if a computer remembers, calculates, writes, and thinks for you, what happens to your own mind? Are we outsourcing the very struggle God designed to grow wisdom in us? Here's the danger: AI doesn't just get things wrong. It gets them spectacularly wrong while sounding absolutely certain. And if you don't know the truth for yourself, you'll never catch it. In this episode I make the case that critical thinking just became a survival skill, then James joins me to react to some clips you won't want to miss, ending with one of the most powerful testimonies of a changed life I've ever heard. Test everything. Hold fast to what is good. And don't rely on a machine to do your thinking for you. To learn more about the sponsor of today’s show and what our family currently uses for…

Is Kathryn Krick a real apostle of God, or is she deceiving millions? That's the question my son James dropped in my lap, and I could not look away. He pulled together her whole story, from chasing an acting career in Hollywood to the viral "deliverance" videos casting out demons in front of hundreds of millions of views, and we sat down to work through all of it together. Here's what I keep coming back to. The hurting people in those videos are not the enemy. They're broken, they're searching, and someone is handing them a false hope wrapped up in the name of Jesus. That's the part that breaks my heart. So in this episode I walk you through the five-point discernment test I use to tell the real thing from a counterfeit, straight out of Scripture. Because false prophets are everywhere, and Jesus told us plainly that we would know them by their fruit.

If Jesus already did everything necessary to save you, why bother trying to be good anymore? Why fight sin so hard? Why forgive the person who hurt you? Why do the right thing when nobody's watching? Here's the beautiful answer. We don't obey God so that he will save us. We obey him because he already has. In this devotional I open up Romans 6, the Heidelberg Catechism, and the difference between Jesus dying for us and Jesus living for us, the perfect life you and I never could. Grace comes first, gratitude follows, and our good works are simply that gratitude made visible.

The Queen of country music is gone. Dolly Parton passed away at 80, and I couldn't let the week end without honoring her, because her life holds a lesson every artist and dreamer needs to hear. Most people know "I Will Always Love You" as a love song, but Dolly wrote it as a goodbye to the man who gave her one of her biggest breaks. When Elvis later came calling and his manager demanded half the publishing rights, she said no. It broke her heart, but she wouldn't surrender what God had given her, and years later Whitney Houston turned that same song into one of the greatest vocal performances in history. Dirt poor in the Smoky Mountains, nearly 60 years married to one man, faithful to the end. Her story is a powerful reminder to steward the gift He's placed in your hands. Rest in peace, Dolly. We will always love you.

Something strange is happening in America. I'm actually starting to agree with Bill Maher. Communism gave the world bread lines, gulags, and the deaths of millions, and yet it's becoming attractive to young people all over again. Before we roll our eyes and say these kids just don't know history, I want to ask a better question: why are they still reaching for it? In this episode I dig into what young people are really longing for, why the promises of socialism sound so compassionate, and why Christianity offers something far better than either greedy capitalism or government confiscation. Here's the heart of it: communism tries to build a better society by redistributing possessions, but God builds a better people by transforming hearts. Nobody has to seize a Christian's property to make him generous. I'll leave you with one action step to try with a young person in your life this week. Give it a listen, and God bless you.

If I'm honest with you, I don't want to die. I love this life. My wife, my kids, my work, that first cup of coffee and the sound of my rooster in the backyard. And yet I know there's a day on God's calendar with my name on it. Death has been on my heart lately. Losing people close to me has a way of bringing it into focus, and it drove me back to my Bible with a hard question: how should a Christian actually think about death? What I found may have been the thing I had wrong my whole life. Thanks for letting me share this one. Subscribe, and drop your question in the comments for a future show. God bless you.

When I heard that Hayden Panettiere died at just 36, it stopped me in my tracks. I grew up in that same world, and I watched too many of my own friends get crushed by it. Corey Haim. River Phoenix. Andrew Koenig, who played my best friend Boner on Growing Pains. Different people, different families, but the same devastating pattern. In this episode I want to talk about what I believe is really behind so many of these tragedies: the loss of childhood, and why protecting it may matter more than almost anything else.

Is college still worth it? That question would've sounded crazy to my parents and grandparents, who were all educators. And back in 1970, a degree really was the golden ticket. But the world has changed. This week James and I sit down for another dangerous conversation about the numbers that stopped us both cold, the lie young people are being sold, and why so many of the most successful folks never finished college.

What kind of body will you have in heaven? Will you eat, feel gravity, break a bone, or just float around like Casper the Friendly Ghost? In this devotional I turn to 1 Corinthians 15, where Paul answers with an acorn. You bury a little seed and up comes an oak tree, and that's you and the body God has waiting for you. This one belongs to the dust, but what's coming is an upgrade you can never lose. So don't cling to what God never meant to last forever. Take care of the body you've got, then get to work.

The WNBA may have just walked into one of the most spectacular ideological traps I have ever seen. Caitlin Clark brings unprecedented attention to women's basketball, and somehow she becomes the center of a culture war over race, privilege, and identity. Then her teammate Sophie Cunningham says the obvious thing out loud, and two former male NBA players, Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White, announce they're entering the 2027 draft as transgender women, so the league has to answer the question everybody's been dancing around. Here's my take: sometimes the most merciful thing you can do with a false idea is let it play itself out to its logical conclusion. You can rename reality and rewrite the rulebook, but when the whistle blows, reality gets the final possession, because truth belongs to God. So pull up a chair, grab your popcorn, and let's watch what happens next.

Right now, cameras you've probably never noticed are tracking where you go, who you see, and when you leave the house. They're called Flock cameras, and the promise is a reasonable one: they help police catch criminals and find missing children. And they do, but there is a far bigger conversation hidden behind that promise. The trouble is that these cameras are not only watching the bad guys. They are watching all of us. So the real question is not whether this technology can do good. It is what happens when we hand that kind of power to the government and simply trust them to use it well. James and I sit down to work through the tension between safety and freedom, and why the true problem was never the camera at all. It is the human heart.

A celebrity welcomes her first baby at 50, another at 54, and the message is loud and clear: it's never too late, you can have it all. But the headlines rarely mention the IVF, donor eggs, and surrogacy behind those stories. Today I want to talk about God's design for family and why postponing it "until the timing is right" is one of the oldest lies our culture tells young people. Children aren't accessories you add after the career and the bucket list. They're image bearers of God, and His timing has always been wiser than ours.

Taylor Swift just became the youngest person ever inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and honestly, it's a remarkable achievement. But it got me thinking about a warning from Jesus that ought to make all of us tremble: the difference between milestones and millstones. This isn't about pointing fingers at Taylor. It's about praying for her, and asking what God has entrusted to you and me. Grab your Bible and let's get into it.

What is respect, really? Something we deserve, something we can demand, or something we have to earn? James brought this one to the table, and it became one of my favorite talks we have had in a while. The old Hebrew unlocked it for me. Honor is something we are called to give every person because they bear God's image. Respect, the kind that means admiration for character, is earned. So how do you honor a parent, a boss, or a judge you disagree with and still hold healthy boundaries? We dig into the story of Job, Paul's charge to young Timothy, and how Jesus himself never demanded the respect he was owed. Got questions? Drop them in the comments, and we will read them on a Monday episode.

I just took my kids to see Christopher Nolan's Odyssey in IMAX, and it might be one of the biggest movies of the year and one of the biggest storytelling blunders of his career. Nolan didn't tell Homer's story. He stripped out the magic, swapped the heroes, and turned a tale about love and honor into one about guilt and shame. So this week I break down what he got wrong, and why I actually believe in gods, monsters, and an enchanted world, just not the way you'd expect. Because deep down, every one of us is on an epic journey home, and the Bible tells that story better than any movie ever could.

Should Christians eat meat, or go back to the Garden of Eden? Food has become a religion. Eat carnivore, you're wrecking your arteries. Go vegan, you're wrecking your hormones. So this week I ask a better question: was Eden's plant-based menu God's permanent plan, or just the start of the story? I dig into Genesis, Jesus, and Paul to show why the real question was never plant or animal.

We say "I love you" all the time, to friends, to family, to the people closest to us. But what do we actually mean when we say it? In this episode, James and I dig into one of the biggest, most-used, and most-misunderstood words there is. Is love a feeling you fall into and fall out of, or is it a choice you make even when you don't feel like it? We get into why the Bible calls love a verb instead of a feeling, and why staying quiet while someone you care about walks toward destruction isn't kindness, it's toxic empathy. In the end, it all comes back to the cross. Editing and production services provided by thepodcastupload.com Interested in sponsoring The Kirk Cameron Show?

Doctor Fauci was once treated like the very face of science, untouchable. Now his own diary notes are out, and I can't help but think of the man behind the curtain in The Wizard of Oz.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day might be the biggest Spider-Man movie in years, and it gave me a lot more than a fun night at the theater. Behind all the action (and a little personal pride, since my cousin Brett Pollock served as director of photography), I found three lessons hiding under the mask: you can't heal by living a double life, real strength comes from fixing your eyes on Christ's victory instead of your old failures, and the reformers were right that a believer is, at the very same time, righteous and still a sinner. Then I open up the mailbag and react to some of the wildest clips going around, from "you don't have to be a Christian to go to heaven" to a bizarre new spin on the woman at the well, plus some honest words on leadership, discipline, and why I'm so grateful for homeschool families.

What's the most important question you'll ever answer? It might not be the one you'd expect. In this episode, I dig into something I've wrestled with for decades: can you actually know, for certain, that you'd be welcomed into heaven if you died tonight? Not hope so. Not maybe. I walk through how Christians have fought over this for 2,000 years, from Calvin to Robert Bellarmine, and why the answer changes everything about how you rest at night. Here's the heart of it: your confidence was never meant to rest in the strength of your faith. It rests in the faithfulness of your Savior, the one who promised he'll never let you go. Then I open up the mailbag and take your questions: Does God ever reveal why he allows good people to suffer? Is it wrong to marry someone who doesn't share your faith? Why has reading my Bible started to feel like a chore instead of a joy? Do I have to listen to only Christian music?

What if the therapy language we hear every day is quietly training us to worship ourselves? In this episode I step into the space between pop psychology and biblical counseling and ask whether we can study the brain without surrendering the soul. We talk about why "your truth" makes a terrible savior, why "just pray harder" is lazy counsel, and how neuroscience is catching up to what Scripture has said all along about taking your thoughts captive and renewing your mind. I also share why Dr. Lee Warren's work on self-brain surgery has been so helpful to me.

In this episode I dig into the parable of the sower, one of the most ordinary stories Jesus ever told and one of the most searching. Four soils, one seed, and a question I couldn't shake all week: which one am I? I get into why Jesus said some people were not meant to understand, why the thorny soil is the one that hits closest to home for most of us today, and what it actually looks like to become the kind of soil that patiently produces fruit. If this encouraged you, subscribe and drop your question in the comments. I'd love to answer it in the next couple of weeks.

Have you ever blamed God without even realizing it? Not by shaking your fist at heaven, but by quietly thinking, "Lord, if you had just changed my circumstances, I wouldn't have done what I did." In this devotional I want to walk through what I've come to see as the most sophisticated form of self-deception, the final argument of a self-excusing heart. It's the same thing that happened back in the Garden of Eden, and it's something God has been exposing in my own life too. Here's the freeing part: if my biggest problem is my own heart and not everyone around me, that's actually great news, because changing hearts is exactly what God specializes in.

Today, I'm reacting to old videos of me from across the decades. Growing Pains, Fireproof, Left Behind, The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes, Star Struck, Touched by an Angel, and the banana that made Ray Comfort famous for all the wrong reasons. I get into the trick my acting coach used to make me cry on cue, the TV screen nobody on set could break, the Fireproof scene I shot with an actor I've still never met, and the guy from Santa Monica Pier we ran into two years later with a Bible in his hand. Some of it holds up. Some of it made me want to hide. All of it took me back. Which one do you remember? Tell me in the comments, and keep the faith.

When did men and women stop being partners and start being competitors? James and I got into it today, and honestly, this one hit close to home. Our culture keeps handing women a scorecard that was designed for men. Career, income, resume, achievement. Chase it hard enough and you will be happy. But James asked a question I have not stopped thinking about: what if that scorecard is measuring the wrong thing entirely? We talk about the differences God built into men and women, why those differences are not inequality, and what happens to a home when both people are fighting to be the same thing. Got questions? Leave them in the comments. We want to answer them on a Monday episode.

What if the "freedom" our culture is selling is actually a prison? Everywhere you look, the message is the same: live for yourself, follow your heart, answer to no one. So why is everyone more anxious, more addicted, and more alone than ever? In this morning devotional, I dig into what the Bible says real freedom looks like, and why God's boundaries are less like prison bars and more like railroad tracks.

Can a Christian sip a fine whiskey or light up a cigar and still honor God? I get into what the Bible actually says about alcohol, tobacco, and Christian liberty, from Jesus turning water into wine to Paul's warning about causing a brother to stumble.

If God is all-powerful, why couldn't He just forgive us and skip the cross? Kirk and James dig into one of the most important questions in the Christian faith: why Jesus actually had to die. They break down the tension between God's justice and His mercy, why sin demands a real penalty, and how the cross is the only place where both get satisfied without compromise. Along the way, James shares a gut-punch story about a father, a son, and a lake full of alligators that reframes what grace really costs. This one gets to the heart of the gospel.

Ever had someone hurt your feelings, only to realize later it might've been the most loving thing they could've done? Kirk unpacks the difference between wounds that destroy and wounds that save, drawing from Paul's letter to the Corinthians on why God sometimes uses hard truths and hard people to save us from ourselves. Plus, a mailbag full of real questions on kids and phones, giving to the homeless, and whether America is still a Christian nation.

This one's for every family navigating tablets, screen time, and real friendship at home. I talk about why kids need people more than pixels, what boredom used to teach us before Wi-Fi took over, and how the best defense against screen addiction isn't stricter rules, it's a richer, more connected life. Plus clips on Reagan's take on atheism, John Piper on true joy, and a wild new law in New York redefining "mother" and "father."

You were told to fear God. You were also told to love Him. And if you're honest, you never really understood how both could be true at the same time. Kirk sits down with his son James to unpack one of the most misunderstood commands in Scripture. James spent years brushing past the "fear God" stuff and leaning into the love, assuming the fear part was just... complicated. But the more he dug in, the more he realized he had it all wrong. They trace the difference between the fear of a slave dreading a tyrant and the fear a child has for a good and powerful father. One pushes you away. The other pulls you closer. That distinction changes everything. The man who fears God fears nothing else. The man who doesn't? He fears everything.

How did we actually get the Bible? Was it cooked up in a smoke filled room by bishops in black robes, or is the Da Vinci Code right that Constantine and the Council of Nicaea just slapped it together? I'm answering that question head on today, and the real story is so much more powerful than the conspiracy theories give it credit for. We're talking about why Ecclesiastes made the cut and the Book of Enoch didn't, why the Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Peter got left out (you have to hear what's actually in those, it's wild), and what the church's real role was in recognizing Scripture versus creating it. The Bible has survived emperors, skeptics, and a few too many cable specials trying to pair Jesus up with Mary Magdalene. It's still standing, and it always will.

UFC in the White House. A terror plot. A championship fight on the South Lawn. Kirk reacts to the wildest patriotic spectacle in recent memory and asks a question most of us don't want to sit with: what does it mean to go all in? On everything. Your marriage. Your kids. Your faith. Your work. Plus Kirk and James react to viral clips on gender ideology in classrooms, Steve Harvey's take on atheism, and the church pew hype man who won't stop saying amen.

Today, we dig into dating apps from every angle: the history, the numbers, the psychology behind swiping, and whether it's actually making anyone better at relationships. James shares a story about creating a fake cowboy profile for a buddy in Wyoming, explains why the whole thing just feels off to him, and we land on a take that might surprise you. Real connection isn't found in a grid of strangers. You still have to show up.

The tallest church in the world was just blessed by the Pope. So is it Babel, or is it worship? The Sagrada Familia took over 140 years to build. Its architect, Antoni Gaudi, intentionally kept it just below the height of a nearby hill because he believed human hands shouldn't reach higher than God's. That's not Babel. That's the opposite of Babel. And I think the Church desperately needs cathedral thinking.
