| 0:00.0 | All right, listen, guys, I get it. Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry |
| 0:04.6 | because you're spending your cash and your lives on raising young children in the fear and |
| 0:09.5 | admonition of the Lord. Praise God for you and that endeavor. However, algorithms are a thing. |
| 0:16.1 | Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing. And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and effectiveness of |
| 0:23.3 | this ministry that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments leaving us a five-star |
| 0:30.0 | review. Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share our podcast with a friend. |
| 0:36.4 | We hope you'll take the time to do so. Thank you so much. |
| 0:39.5 | God bless. Question from the Youngs. Do you believe that a family should be denied membership in the |

| 1:23.3 | neutrality is a myth that's that's what I've been doing this whole episode moral neutrality is myth religious neutrality is a myth. That's what I've been doing in this whole episode. Moral neutrality is |
| 1:27.8 | a myth. Religious neutrality is a myth. Worship neutrality is a myth. All right. So |
| 1:33.6 | public schools are state schools. It's it's pluralism. It's secularism. It's, and the biblical |
| 1:43.6 | word would be, it's polytheism. It's, |
| 1:45.5 | it's, it's, it's public atheism. It's, that, that's what it is. Um, and so your children are being |
| 1:50.1 | taught to hate the living God. And so, yes, as, as a father who's commanded to, uh, to train your |
| 1:56.1 | children up in the fear and admonition of the Lord, that chiefly, that's mothers and fathers, but chiefly falls on fathers. |
