The Heidi St. John Podcast

Christians in Nigeria are facing horrific persecution, but even in the midst of suffering, God is at work. Judd Saul of Equipping the Persecuted joins me with an update on the believers his team is serving through emergency aid, village warning systems, and ongoing support for widows and their children. He shares powerful stories of forgiveness, Muslims coming to faith in Christ, and Christians who refuse to stop worshiping despite the danger. We’re also talking about practical ways you can help. You may feel overwhelmed by what’s happening, but you can make a difference.

What happens when standing up for women gets you thrown out of a women’s soccer game? Independent journalist and unDivided host Brandi Kruse joins me to share her account of being confronted by fans and forcibly removed from a Portland Thorns game while supporting women’s sports. We’re talking about free speech, protecting girls’ opportunities, and why we cannot let intimidation silence the truth. Plus, why Washington voters need to show up for girls’ sports and parental rights.

Parental rights, girls’ sports, and your paycheck are all on the line. But how much ground are we surrendering simply because people aren’t voting? Brian Heywood, founder of Let’s Go Washington, joins me to talk about the citizen initiatives challenging Olympia, the pressure keeping people quiet, and why Washington’s battles should matter to families everywhere. If you’re frustrated with the direction of your state, this conversation is your reminder that sitting out won’t change it.

Pornography is never harmless—and bringing it into your marriage comes at a cost. Joshua Broome joins me for part two of our conversation to expose the lies surrounding pornography, the exploitation behind the screen, and the damage it does to intimacy. We’re also talking about the conversations parents can’t afford to avoid and why freedom begins with bringing what’s hidden into the light. God’s design for marriage is worth protecting, and through Christ, there is hope for healing.

What happens when everything you thought would make you feel worthy leaves you more broken than before? Joshua Broome joins me to share how childhood rejection and a desperate search for approval led him into the pornography industry—and how Jesus changed everything. We’re talking honestly about the destruction behind the screen, the lies that keep people trapped in shame, and the freedom found in Christ. If you’ve ever wondered whether your past puts you beyond God’s reach, this conversation is for you.
