Why AI can reflect human creativity but will never have a soul. How idolatry sneaks in when we rely on AI more than God. Personal stories (like when our son was sick and we turned to AI first… before prayer). The Tower of Babel, the...

For nine straight years, my business grew consistently. More revenue. More traffic. More impact. Then, suddenly, everything started going backward. I had no clue what to do. I felt helpless.

Everyone’s Freaking Out About Tariffs—But Here’s the Side No One Talks About

Let’s be real—every headline out there is yelling about doom and gloom: “Trade war! Economic collapse! Inflation!”

But what if there’s another side?

In this episode, we zoom way out and unpack the other perspective. The one you’re not hearing. The one that doesn’t sell fear, but maybe offers… a little bit of hope?

We get into:

  • What tariffs actually are (yes, we break it down plain and simple)

  • Why reciprocal tariffs aren’t necessarily “bullying”

  • The surprising benefits most media outlets are ignoring

  • How this could affect YOU: jobs, taxes, prices, and your kids' future

  • And yes… we even touch on the real reason so many Americans are uncomfortable right now.

This isn’t about politics. This is about understanding the full picture—and getting equipped to respond with wisdom, peace, and practical steps.
