Christian politics with the gloves off.
CrossPolitic Show argues from a conservative Christian frame, moving quickly from jokes and conference-floor banter into hard claims about schools, churches, medicine, industry, and national politics. Its interviews favor conviction over neutrality, with guests pressed to connect practical fights to faith.

CrossPolitic Show works from a simple premise: public life belongs under Christian judgment. That conviction gives the program its edge. The show moves quickly, often beginning with greetings, travel stories, conference chatter, or sponsor-like updates before turning into a harder argument. Interviews are the main engine. A guest might be asked about nickel refining, teacher unions, campus antisemitism, medical AI, Iowa politics, or engagement with Muslims, but the conversation usually widens into questions of authority, courage, institutional capture, and Christian duty. The tone is not neutral. It is talky, partisan, and openly theological. The show is also more varied than a standard politics panel, because its version of politics includes supply chains, family formation, fitness, private business, education policy, denominational controversy, and missionary strategy. The Waterboy, Chalk Knox, and Pastor Toby appear as on-air voices in the excerpts, with a style built on interruptions, jokes, corrections, and quick affirmations. Guests are often presented through the work they are building or the conflict they are facing. Ryan Walters talks about the Teacher Freedom Alliance and pressure on public school teachers. Nathan Graville explains AI, blood work, and Jevity. Eyal Jacoby connects University of Pennsylvania campus politics to Israel, Hamas, and left-wing ideology. Shark and Pastor Greg speak about ChristUnderground.org and biblical engagement with Muslims. The SBC episodes are especially polemical, casting denominational legal battles and abuse-investigation fallout as warnings for conservative institutions. That gives the show a sermon-like pressure. It wants listeners to see compromise as spiritual danger, not merely bad strategy. The result is energetic, blunt, and often combative Christian commentary for people who want politics tied directly to doctrine, institutions, and daily obedience.
Made for: Best for conservative Christian listeners who want politics, institutions, business, health, and culture read through an explicitly biblical frame. It also fits audiences who prefer lively argument and direct moral stakes over balanced-panel restraint.
What sets it apart: The show does not separate church disputes, public education, medical technology, industry, and foreign conflict into different lanes. It folds them into one forceful worldview where policy arguments become questions of faithfulness, courage, and institutional integrity.
CrossPolitic (Christ over politics) mixes the taboo formula of faith, culture, and politics to bring the clarity of the gospel into muddle America. We are a community of Christians who desire to see the Lordship of Christ in every corner of our culture, reigning over every politician, and changing every individual for our good and His glory.

Our hosts have interviewed notable presidential candidates (such as Senator Ted Cruz and Dr. Ben Carson), written books, preach the Gospel, make films, and utilize every avenue possible to declare the gospel of our Lord to the who…
