SHOW #15: Worldviews Matter

Worldview is everything. A Christian worldview should be shaped by the Word of God not by the fallen world around us. We increasingly have a Church that looks identical to the Culture.

SHOW #13: The War on Kids

There is an all-out War on Our Kids, bombarding them with “lies so clever they sound like the truth. (Eph 4:14)” As parents, we are the ones responsible for what fills our kids’ hearts and minds. We have to teach them before a broken world reaches them. We also discuss our ground-breaking book, PRO-LIFE KIDS!, and how we can never give up the battle for our children’s very lives. We can’t allow the world to shout a lie louder than we proclaim the Truth.

SHOW #12: The National Association for the Abortion of Colored People

In 2013, the nation’s oldest civil rights organization–the NAACP–sued The Radiance Foundation and Ryan Bomberger, personally, for (accurately) parodying their name. The National Association for the A̶d̶v̶a̶n̶c̶e̶m̶e̶n̶t̶ Abortion of Colored People lied in court documents that they are “neutral on abortion” when they passed a resolution supporting abortion, regularly partner with and fiercely defend Planned Parenthood, and publicly advocate FOR abortion. We reveal the shocking details of the surreal federal #freespeech lawsuit and how the radically pro-abortion NAACP is a prime example of civil rights gone wrong.

SHOW #11: That's So Eugenic!!!

What do Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood and July 4th have in common? Absolutely nothing. And that’s the point of this show.

SHOW #10: Dads Matter

Dads always matter. Nature is an extraordinary thing. It reveals to us how important every piece of the biological puzzle is to Life. Each gender, female and male, is significant and different and wondrous. But what happens when we pretend that they’re interchangeable or dispensable? The puzzle starts to fall apart leaving gaping holes. We see that in our modern society as the epidemic of fatherlessness has left behind massive voids. This powerful #FathersDay episode examines the impact of father absence and celebrates the beauty and importance of fatherhood.

SHOW #8: #BLACKLIVESMATTER AND WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW

Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X both fought for racial justice. Both had radically different approaches to how that could be achieved. MLK believed in non-violence. Malcolm X believed in violence “by any means necessary.” King promoted a Gospel-centered approach. Malcolm X promoted an unbiblical one. As Christians who are to seek the truth that sets us free, what IS the #BlackLivesMatter movement’s approach? There can be no justice without righteousness; they both form the foundation of God’s throne (Psalm 89:14). This show is a must-hear for every one who is called as an ambassador of Christ. Who are we representing?

SHOW #7: RACE, INJUSTICE AND A CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW

Race. It’s a made-up thing, and we’re not afraid to go there. We can’t shy away from having tough conversations, but we have to have the right starting point. There is no justice without truth, and the only Truth that is immutable is God’s Word. It illuminates how we fight the sin of racism…how we fight sin, period. This podcast shines a light on how our marriage was once considered illegal, a little American civil rights history, Ahmaud Arbery, LeBron James and Blamestream media. Get ready to dive in to some deep waters.

SHOW #6: ADOPTION, BIRTHMOMS AND TRANSFORMATION

We celebrate those who are #BirthmomStrong. As adoptive parents, we celebrate how adoption is a loving and transformative act that helps to restore what was broken. In this episode we share a powerful phone interview with our friend and Board member, Kristin DePola. She’s a birthmom who turned the unplanned into a loving plan. Learn more about The Radiance Foundation’s adoption advocacy at www.adoptedandloved.com. You can book a multimedia presentation on adoption for your conference, church, college or organization’s event at www.radiance.life/booking.

SHOW #5: EL CINCO DE RYO MOTHER'S DAY EDITION

This is a very special episode. May 5th–known around the world as El Cinco De Mayo–is El Cinco De Ryo in our house. It’s Ryan’s birthday! AND, this coming weekend is Mother’s Day! What better way to celebrate than to have Ryan’s mother–Andrea Bomberger–who raised 13 children (10 adopted) share her incredible journey. This is an exclusive interview with a mother of a multiracial family who navigated through the challenges of racism, disabilities, and disappointments. But her faith and love brought many moments of joy and triumph.

SHOW #4: HARVARD HATES HOMESCHOOLING

Harvard is holding an anti-homeschooling (anti-schoolchoice) summit in June. Harvard Law Professor and summit leader, Elizabeth Bartholet, believes children belong to the State and that parents have no natural rights to their children. She asserts that homeschoolers are religious extremists, misogynists and racists and that homeschooling should be banned. As an interracial homeschooling couple, we shred a bunch of Harvard’s Ivy League bogus claims (using things like facts) and provide powerful examples of and resources for #schoolchoice.

SHOW #3: FEAR IS A LIAR

Show #3 goes deep into the reason for the name of our nonprofit organization, The Radiance Foundation. It’s a story of desperation, transformation and redemption. Also, we expose the fake feminism of Planned Parenthood and contrast it with the truly empowering work of pregnancy centers and maternity homes. Don’t miss this powerful episode!

SHOW #2: I am the One Percent

Ryan and Bethany Bomberger talk about origin stories, including Ryan’s adoption into a diverse multiracial family of 15. His parents, Henry and Andrea Bomberger, weren’t on any kind of crusade; they just wanted to love the supposedly “unwanted.” Ryan also shares the song he wrote for his birthmom called “Meant to Be” and how the circumstances of our conception don’t change the condition of our worth. You won’t want to miss the first chapter of his fearless book, NOT EQUAL: CIVIL RIGHTS GONE WRONG (available on Amazon).

SHOW #1: Meet The Bombs

Ryan & Bethany Bomberger talk about God-sized dreams and how a passion for engaging a broken culture led to the creation of The Radiance Foundation. Ryan delivers his factivist commentary on Coronavirus, Chaos and Confusion. Also, we have fun talking to our kiddos (the Lil’ Bombs) about what the phrase “Life Has Purpose” means to them.
