The state suffers from a shortage of caregivers, and officials admit they “struggle with recruiting and retaining” people. During 2021, nearly 7,000 children were placed in out-of-home care. In the 2023 fiscal year, officials had to place hundreds of foster children in emergency housing—like unlicensed hotel rooms—4,570 times. Washington’s Department of Children, Youth, and Families established a new policy requiring foster parents to promise to promote the agency’s gender ideology to a hypothetical child or young person under their care. Caregivers Shane and Jennifer DeGross will not support this ideology and have filed a lawsuit to push back. They join us to discuss their case, along with their ADF counsel, Johannes Widmalm-Delphonse. We also look at a case in Finland, Title IX, a Soros DA goes down in Portland, and more!

In Full-Time: Work and the Meaning of Life, David Bahnsen makes the case that our understanding of work and its role in our lives is deeply flawed—we are unmoored from what he calls “created purpose.” He argues that the time has come to stop tiptoeing around the issues that matter, that separating one’s identity from what they do is demonstrably false, and that this era of alienation is for many a direct result of a low view of work. It is in work—effort, service, striving—of every kind that we discover our meaning and purpose; a significant and successful life is one rooted in full-time productivity and cultivation of God’s created world. David joins us for an intriguing conversation!
