Do you find yourself angry or anxious when watching or listening to the news? If that answer is YES...this is the podcast for YOU. 'Politics By Faith with Mike Slater' offers a very different analysis to the equation, drawing from faith and the founders for perspective instead of the warring opinions of pundits. Each episode begins with the top story of the day, then provides a historical and Biblical parallel, and finally a motivating truth to calm your soul. You’ll be amazed at what the Bible and our very own history have to say about where we are today...

Why listen

Politics By Faith with Mike Slater is for listeners who want conservative news commentary filtered through Christian scripture and American history instead of pundit outrage. Mike Slater opens with a current story, connects it to a biblical or historical parallel, and closes with a steadier takeaway. It works especially well for Christians who follow politics closely but want a calmer, more explicitly faith-shaped way to process the news.

You Won't Believe Why Two Gay Guys Wanted To Abort "Their" Baby

When we live in a culture of death, it's just a matter of time before we treat babies like a commodity to be bought, sold and slaughtered on a whim.

We have two terrible stories to show how far we've fallen and then one story that shows we still have hope.

Mike Slater sits down with Councilwoman Vickie Paladino to examine why so many believe these policies have made New York increasingly unaffordable. Pastor Douglas Wilson then joins to discuss communism's devastating legacy around the world, why it has long been viewed as incompatible with Christianity, and why ideas rooted in the ideology are gaining renewed attention in America.

Why "Young Washington" Is Spectacular And The New Moana Movie Flopped

"Young Washington" was spectacular! Go see it as soon as possible, and no, I wasn’t paid to say any of this. Bring everyone you know. No one could not love it.

Faith and Freedom Can NEVER Be Separated

You can’t remove the Bible from life and still claim to follow God—faith and scripture have always been inseparable in shaping belief and morality. For generations, ideas of God, liberty, and human purpose were deeply connected in the way America understood itself and its future. Mike Slater examines how the Founding Fathers consistently referenced scripture and how that worldview shaped the nation’s foundation.
