Smiles, Songs and Scripture (Self Evident #15)
In this lighter issue of Self Evident, the girls answer a variety of questions from the listeners. Questions like what should guys know about girls, how much time should one spend in the Bible and (you guessed it) much more is discussed and answered to the best of their abilities.
Culture Proof (Self Evident #14)
Today we have a rather unique episode coming your way. Earlier this year, The Illinois Christian Home Educator’s (ICHE) conference took place in Bourbonnais, Illinois, and Jenna was given the opportunity to interview a husband-and-wife duo who define the term “power couple.” Will and Meeke Addison, hosts of Airing the Addisons, were those precise people at this year’s convention, and Jenna was able to speak with them on behalf of the Illinois Family Institute’s Spotlight podcast.
Culture proof is a term coined by the Addisons to describe what parents should want in their children. The culture creeps into homes and families with the intention of penetrating the hearts of the children, be it through social media, music, movies or books. “What is required of [parents] is that we make our kids impervious to the culture. We want our kids to be out in the culture, but we do not want a godless culture getting into them” states the couple fervently.
We’re delighted to share this conversation with you today on Self Evident, and we hope you enjoy!

Concerning Gun Control (Self Evident #12)
Hail and well met ladies and gents, Self Evident is back to converse about the issue of gun control, one of the evergreen hot topics of America.
“Gun control is not about gun control, strictly speaking. Gun control is people control. Gun control is not about the abolition of gun ownership. Gun control is about a rearrangement of the gun ownership—where the people below give them up, and the people above keep all of theirs.” ~Pastor Douglas Wilson

Biology with Biologists: A Bonus Episode (Self Evident #10)
“Truth is ever to be found in simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.” ~Isaac Newton
To conclude Pride month with pizazz, Self Evident presents this bonus episode of Jenna bombarding two biologists with questions pertaining to what is a woman. The culture today is determined to have every term that defines sex and biology clear as mud. But definitions, by definition, define things.
“They said to ask a biologist, so I asked two.” Jenna shrugged. James Zumhagen holds a degree in pre medicine biology from Governor’s State University, and Tommy Findysz is a high school science teacher at a local Christian school. Both address issues relating to gender, sexual orientation, the push for transitioning and if one needs to have a degree in order to to speak common sense.

The Cultural LGBTQ Push Pt. 1 (Self Evident #8)
You cannot escape seeing a rainbow everywhere you go in June. The celebration of sexual orientation is screamed from rooftops and bannered in stores. As Christians, what is our response to the rise in transitioning from male to female and vice versa? Why should we care?
Alyssa, Jenna, Kenna and Eliana address the brazen propaganda that grooms children, the root problems of gender dysphoria, Biblical solutions and the glorious purpose and definition of what is a woman.
Careers, Chivalry & the Christian Woman: On Feminism Part 2 (Self Evident #7)
Women were not kept at home in order to keep them narrow; on the contrary, they were kept at home in order to keep them broad. The world outside the home was one mass of narrowness, a maze of cramped paths, a madhouse of monomaniacs. It was only by partly limiting and protecting the woman that she was enabled to play at five or six professions and so come almost as near to God as the child when he plays at a hundred trades. But the woman’s professions, unlike the child’s, were all truly and almost terribly fruitful.” ~ G.K. Chesterton
Episode seven of Self Evident finds the girls wrapping up their discussion of feminism. The four females address the derogatory perspective of motherhood not being the ultimate career, share anecdotes of refusing chivalry, and point out tropes in our day and age which contradict the design of women.
Feminist Falsehoods in The Church: On Feminism Part 1 (Self Evident #6)
Women need to stop being so offended about being asked to submit to an equal. Christ did not consider it robbery to humble Himself and submit to an equal, and neither should we, because when we picture that submission we are picturing the most potent form of glory that there is. ~Bekah Merkle
This episode of Self Evident, the girls address some of the prevalent lies in evangelical circles when it comes to the role of women. Stay tuned for part two next week!
