Headlines: The Courage of Convictions in a Confusing World

Headlines: The Courage of Convictions in a Confusing World

Author: David Fiorazo September 2, 2026 Duration: 55:56
Today’s news cycle deserves some social/philosophical/matters-of-the-heart type ponderings. The reason for that is, we have all collectively paused what we were occupied with to pay attention to Lindsey Clancy, the blank-eyed premeditated murderer of 3 innocent children. And the jury is locked in what is likely a moral conversation. How can it not be? And in a nation/world that has forgotten God and thereby loosed its moral moorings, things are likely to get even more convoluted because there are no standards. People want to come to the aid and compassion of the murderer in this upside down world, but how did we get here? Time to talk about these things. We also talk about Iran, calling out false teachers without compromise, and natural disasters that are on the uptick. A full hour of varied and sundry takes on this crazy, chaotic world.

Tune in to Stand Up For The Truth Podcast with David Fiorazo for a frank conversation where faith meets the daily headlines.
