McKay Coppins spent one year and $10,000 of The Atlantic’s money to find out the truth about sports betting.

Watch this conversation on YouTube.

Russell welcomes McKay Coppins to talk about his latest for The Atlantic, a deeply personal and unsettling experiment with online sports betting, which opened a window into the addictive architecture of modern gambling, and the quiet ways it can take hold of a life.

Together, they explore not just the mechanics of gambling, but its deeper implications: how it alters our attention, distorts our relationships, fuels anger and illusion, and increasingly reshapes everything from sports to politics to everyday life. Coppins–a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints–even remarks at the ways the experiment affected his prayer life.

If you’ve wondered how sports betting has become so popular, or why younger men are being held tightly by its grasp, you might find this episode enlightening. 

This is a conversation about more than just betting, it’s about desire, discipline, and the kinds of guardrails we don’t realize we need until they’re gone.

How should the church address infertility and childlessness?

Watch this episode on YouTube

In this special episode filmed as a livestream for Christianity Today subscribers, Russell Moore sits down with Karen Swallow Prior to talk about her recent CT Magazine article, “The Birds and the Bees, Babies and Me.” 

Drawing from her own experience, Prior reflects on the deeply personal nature of infertility—not just as a medical or social issue, but as a spiritual and communal one. But this conversation is not only about loss, it’s also about rethinking fruitfulness, calling, and blessing. 

In answering questions taken live from viewers, Prior points to the unexpected ways God shapes lives outside of cultural expectations, while Moore considers how churches can become places that recognize spiritual motherhood and fatherhood beyond biology. 

Along the way, they wrestle honestly with the tension of unanswered prayers, offering a vision of community that bears burdens together rather than explaining them away.
