Truth be Told with Mike & Kelly Johnson

• Episode 69: Who We Are and How We Should Lead (in Washington and Around the World)

   As chaos ensues on Capitol Hill and in foreign affairs, and a war begins in Israel, Mike is working around the clock in Congress to help resolve the unprecedented crises that will quite literally determine the future of our nation—and the survival of freedom around the globe. At the center of it all is an open debate about who we are as conservatives and how we should lead. It made us think of a very important and timely conversation that Mike had last summer with one of the living legends of the movement, and we decided to share it again this week.    Everyone will benefit greatly from the priceless advice and perspective given here by Dr. Lee Edwards, the 90 year-old former Distinguished Fellow in Conservative Thought at The Heritage Foundation, a leading historian of American conservatism, and the author of more than 25 books, including biographies of Ronald Reagan, Barry Goldwater, William F. Buckley, Jr. and Edwin Meese III. NEXT WEEK: Mike and Kelly will share their personal insights and much more about the truly historic developments occuring as we speak.

• Episode 68: The Border is at a Breaking Point (and Congress is Close)

  In this episode, Mike briefly addresses the latest on the looming government shutdown, and the tumultous Merrick Garland hearing, and then discusses the historic breaking point in the border catastrophe.  As we are being overrun, Mike and Kelly present the answers that every Christian and freedom-loving American need to know and be able to simply explain:  Why is a secure border essential? Why is it morally correct to insist upon a wall that can't be breached? What does the Bible tell us about all this?   SHOW NOTES: The Border Crisis Reaches Historic Breaking Point (Fox News)  www.MikeandKellyJohnson.com Produced by Strong Wave Media, LLC © 2023 Mike and Kelly Johnson

• Episode 67: The Best News for Religious Freedom in 50 Years(!) and the Latest on the Capitol Hill Intrigue

  Mike begins this program with a brief summary of where things stand on the current controversies in Congress? Will we have a govenrment shutdown on September 30th? Will President Biden be impeached? He answers it all in his interview with Meet the Press. Then... did you know there's been a seismic shift in the restoration of our constitional guarantee to the free exercise of religion?  From the military, to our children’s schools, houses of worship, charities, businesses and the marketplace, our local veterans’ memorials and our neighborhoods, Americans have more religious freedom than we’ve had in 50 years. Today, we discuss this new reality and what it means for prayer in schools, Ten Commandments displays, and a myriad of other issues, with attorney Hiram Sasser, the Executive General Counsel of First Liberty Institute.

• Episode 66: How to Stand for Religious Freedom & Address the "Separation of Church and State"

  Recent events have inspired us to cover one of the most important–and most misunderstood–principles in American society today.    What place should religion have in the free marketplace of ideas? Does the so-called “separation of church and state” prevent a public official from sharing his religious viewpoints or factoring his beliefs into his daily decisions?  Do students in public schools still have any rights to religious expression? Are there simple rules of thumb that can help all of us to understand our rights, exercise them, and encourage others to do the same?   In this episode, Mike explains in simple terms what the law actually says and why it’s so important.  He also answers the most frequently asked questions about this subject in a thoughtful discussion with his special guest and son, Jack Johnson (a Christian student leader who is practicing these principles on his school campus).     SHOW NOTES: The Louisiana Student Rights Review (free download) "Separation of Church and State" explained (Mike's FB post) www.MikeandKellyJohnson.com Produced by Strong Wave Media, LLC © 2023 Mike and Kelly Johnson
