Tune in here to this Monday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!

Brett kicks off the program by talking about decency and the controversy surrounding the memorial for Charlie Kirk. He highlights how some in the media, including Don Lemon, reacted with anger toward those celebrating Kirk’s life. Brett notes that President Trump offered his own eulogy and stresses that people of faith have the right to honor Kirk in their own way without outside interference.

Later, Brett shifts his focus from politics to a deeper reflection on Christianity and its meaning in a skeptical age. He acknowledges how secular critics often portray the faith as oppressive, dogmatic, or outdated, yet he challenges that view by reframing Christianity not as control but as love expressed through sacrifice. To illustrate, he recounts the story of Maximilian Kolbe, the Catholic priest who offered his life in Auschwitz to save a stranger. For Brett, this act of defiant love captures the true essence of Christianity—a willingness to give rather than to dominate. He explains that the heart of the faith is not about winning arguments but about serving others, forgiving, and even suffering for another’s dignity. Brett concludes that in a world drowning in cynicism, Christianity’s radical ethic of self-giving love offers hope, meaning, and a vision of life stronger than death.
