What should Christians believe about Israel, America, and the chaos in the Middle East?This conversation is a selected segment from a longer podcast with Chadd Wright of 3 of 7 Project, focused on Israel, America, and how Christians should respond. Watch the full episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loVDBiJAPBc&t=2158sThe question of Israel has become one of the most divisive topics in America—splitting conservatives, Christians, libertarians, families, churches, and political movements. But why does this small nation create such massive tension? Is the issue purely political, or is there something deeper happening beneath the surface?In this conversation, John Lovell joins the discussion to wrestle through the Israel question from a Christian worldview. They talk about Israel’s place in Scripture, Romans 11, the difference between political Zionism and spiritual Zionism, America’s role in foreign policy, the war in Iran, the danger of hatred, and what it means to love your enemies without being naive.This is not a simple conversation, and it is not a clean soundbite. It is a serious look at one of the hardest questions facing Christians and Americans today: How do we respond when the world demands we pick a side?Topics include:Israel and America, Christian response to Israel, Romans 11, spiritual warfare, Middle East conflict, Iran, America First foreign policy, political Zionism vs spiritual Zionism, Bible prophecy, conservative division, and how Christians should think about war, hatred, and national loyalty.Chapters0:00 Why Israel is such a difficult question1:31 The high stakes of the Israel debate2:11 Why this topic creates so much backlash2:48 Where do Christians stand on Israel?3:11 Revolutionary America sponsor break4:00 Why Israel is fracturing the right and the left5:16 Why Israel carries unusual spiritual weight6:16 What should Christians believe about Israel?8:16 Romans 11 and ethnic Israel10:45 Spiritual warfare and the Israel question13:15 Personal experiences in Israel and Palestinian areas16:57 Israel, prophecy, history, and survival19:44 The historical pattern of exile and return21:36 The New Testament answer: love your enemies22:56 Paul’s love for his people24:54 Rejecting hatred while telling the truth25:08 Political Zionism vs spiritual Zionism26:00 Does Israel have the right to defend itself?26:06 Israel, America, and foreign policy tension28:08 Who is really pulling the strings?29:39 How nations fight when survival is at stake31:07 Why this issue is fracturing families and movements32:40 Why the land still matters34:40 Is America being used in God’s plan?35:47 America’s role in God’s purposes37:29 Has America been given a reprieve?40:00 What should U.S. support for Israel look like?41:21 Iran, war, and American interests43:16 Why didn’t America confront Iran sooner?44:29 Can we trust the government’s case for war?45:09 Final thoughts with John Lovell46:48 John’s books, ministry, and where to follow himWarrior Poet WEBSITE - https://warriorpoetsociety.comTRAIN with us - https://warriorpoetsupplyco.com/train1/Books by John Lovell - https://johnlovell.comGET the WarPoet app! | Original shows, training, and much more. iPhone, Android, Amazon, Apple TV etc. https://www.watchwpsn.com Watch the Rally Point Show on the Warrior Poet appFOLLOW US: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/warriorpoetsociety Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/warriorpoetsociety/ X | https://x.com/johnlovell275(DISCLAIMER: This post may contain paid advertisements or affiliate links.

I posted a 60-second Instagram reel that absolutely exploded:“My wife is not in charge in my house. I am. She is my helper, I am not hers.” Millions and millions of views. Zero middle ground. People either cheered or wanted me canceled immediately. Today on the John Lovell Show I play the original viral clip, then break down the 3 major buckets of reactions it got: Feminist meltdown (“This is abusive, misogynistic, scary!”) “Christian” pushback (“You’re twisting scripture, headship doesn’t mean in charge!”) People who actually agreed… and the wives begging for this kind of marriageI read real comments, quote Ephesians 5, 1 Peter 3, Colossians 3, and 1 Timothy 2 word-for-word, and explain why my wife and I chose a fully counter-cultural, uncompromising biblical marriage — and why it’s the best decision we ever made.0:00 – Intro: The Viral Instagram Reel That Broke the Internet0:48 – Playing the Full Controversial Clip (“My wife is not in charge”)3:58 – Why We Chose a Fully Biblical Marriage (And How It Saved Us)4:17 – Beautiful Vision of Complementarian Roles (Men & Women Are Different… and That’s Good)5:12 – Response #1: The Feminist Meltdown & Fear of Male Authority9:51 – Response #2: “You’re Twisting Scripture!” – Breaking Down the Bible Verses11:28 – Ephesians 5 Explained: Wives Submit “As to the Lord”12:30 – 1 Peter 3: Sarah Called Abraham “Lord” – What That Actually Means14:30 – How Headship Works in Real Life (CEO/COO, Teacher/Headmaster Example)16:14 – Tiebreakers, Respect, and Why Willing Submission Unlocks Crazy Love17:48 – 1 Timothy 2 & Church Structure (This Isn’t About Women Being Silent Everywhere)20:45 – Headship vs. Being “In Charge” – Addressing the Egalitarian Pushback22:16 – The Trinity: Equal in Value, Different in Roles24:11 – Response #3: People Who Agree… and the Warning About Abusive “Christian” Men27:12 – Final Challenge: Worldly Marriage Is Failing – God’s Design Actually Works28:28 – Outro & Where Do YOU Land?
"Your worst sin is that you've destroyed and betrayed yourself for nothing." These were the words of Rodion Raskolnikov, the protagonist in Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment. Today John Lovell joins us in studio to unravel how this plays out in the life of modern day men; men who sabotage (often unwittingly) the success of their very own lives.
What if you could grow a productive garden in the middle of a drought — without constantly watering your beds?In this episode of The John Lovell Show, John sits down with Mike Herbert, a regenerative farming expert with 13 years of experience in soil development, organic farming, livestock, homesteading, and drought-proofing land. Mike has built a thriving family homestead using methods that seem almost impossible at first: hugelkultur beds, deep mulch, buried wood, swales, and water-retaining soil systems that help keep the ground moist even during dry conditions.John visited Mike’s property and was shocked by how much food his family was growing with far fewer inputs, less watering, and less dependence on the normal garden supply chain. From potatoes and ginger to livestock and family food production, Mike explains why many gardeners may be working harder than they need to — and how building soil the right way can make a homestead more resilient.If you are starting a garden, building a homestead, preparing for drought, or trying to become a better provider for your family, this conversation will challenge the way you think about food, soil, water, and self-reliance.In this episode:How Hügelkultur beds help retain moistureWhy buried wood can improve soil over timeHow swales slow down and capture water on your propertyWhy deep mulch can protect soil during droughtHow to grow food with fewer outside inputsWhat regenerative farming can teach modern homesteadersWhy food security starts at homeHow farming can build family culture, work ethic, and generational skillsMike Herbert is not a full-time farmer living apart from the real world — he is a builder, contractor, husband, father, and homesteader who has learned how to produce food while still living a full and busy life. That makes his approach especially helpful for families who want to grow more food, waste less water, and build practical resilience without turning their entire life upside down.Topics covered: drought proof garden, Hügelkultur beds, swales, regenerative farming, no water garden, homesteading, organic gardening, food security, soil building, deep mulch gardening, family farming, self-reliance, growing food in drought, sustainable gardening, water retention, permaculture, and how to feed your family in hard times.Watch the full episode and learn why John says he may have been gardening wrong for years.Chapters00:00 Historic Drought, No Water, Tons of Food01:06 Meet Mike Herbert01:55 Could You Feed Your Family If the Food Chain Failed?02:46 Why John Is Frustrated With Normal Gardening03:52 What Is Hügelkultur?04:52 Digging Trenches and Burying Wood05:39 The Underground Water Reservoir06:18 How to Build a Hügelkultur Bed07:41 Potatoes, Ginger, and Food Hiding in Plain Sight09:04 Why Nobody Is Promoting This Method09:30 Proof That Hügelkultur Works11:18 Building Black Soil With Mulch12:04 What Else Can You Grow This Way?13:16 Is Good Soil Just Bug Crap?13:29 How Plants Grow Through Thick Mulch15:19 Moist Soil Even in a Drought16:32 What Food Is Mike Growing?17:15 The 100-Year Drought17:51 How Swales Capture Water19:14 Using Contour to Drought-Proof the Land20:52 Why Ground Cover Matters21:25 Growing Food, Livestock, and Family Resilience22:35 Building Family Culture Through Farming25:00 Work Ethic, Ownership, and Raising Capable Kids26:21 Why Time With Your Kids Matters27:36 Better Than Life Insurance28:02 How to Be a Better Provider29:44 Building, Carrying, and Protecting Life31:09 Final Thoughts

John Lovell from Warrior Poet Society dives deep into the struggles of Gen Z men (ages 13-28) in today's world. After reaching out on X to understand their perspective—especially conservative and libertarian young guys—John shares his shocking realizations. From skyrocketing inflation, unaffordable housing, and a dating scene wrecked by hypergamy, online apps, and cultural divides where women lean woke and promiscuous while men turn conservative and religious.

What do you do when the political world feels corrupt, compromised, and almost impossible to trust? In this episode, Pastor Josh McPherson joins John Lovell for a fiery conversation about why so many men are fed up with politics, exhausted by bureaucracy, and tempted to check out completely. But Josh makes the case that walking away is exactly how the darkness wins. This isn’t a polite “go vote” conversation. It’s a call for Christian men to stop surrendering the public square, rebuild what has been broken, and recover the lost art of statesmanship. From corrupt institutions and government overreach to Washington State becoming a testing ground for destructive ideas, John and Josh dig into why the fight for faith, family, freedom, and the future of our children cannot be ignored. Pastor Josh also lays out the heart behind FreedomCon 2026: Rise of the Statesman, a gathering of Christian men at The Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington, built to call men out of apathy and into courage, action, worship, and statesmanship.
