Just Common Sense | 170 | The News and The Good News

What happens when thousands of teenagers gather in the streets, violence erupts, and an entire generation appears increasingly disconnected from biblical truth? In this episode of Just Common Sense, Dr. Johnny Hunter is joined by evangelist Marjorie Williams for a frank conversation about youth violence, absent fathers, education, political influence, cultural division, spiritual deception, and the responsibility of the church.Using 2 Timothy 3 as a biblical foundation, they discuss the “perilous times” described by the apostle Paul and challenge churches to do more than simply observe what is happening. They call on pastors, parents, and believers to reach young people, establish strong Christian education, teach a biblical worldview, confront racial hatred, and proclaim repentance and salvation through Jesus Christ. The conversation also turns toward emerging technology, digital identification, artificial intelligence, and concerns surrounding the mark of the beast. Throughout the program, listeners are encouraged to test every claim carefully, remain grounded in Scripture, and practice spiritual discernment. The central challenge is unmistakable: If the church does not disciple the next generation, the culture will.

Just Common Sense | 168 | Beware of Favoritism

Dr. Johnny Hunter and Pat Hunter walk through Proverbs 11, James 2, and the headlines to call the Church back to fairness, mercy, and unwavering love for Israel — and for every soul who walks through the door. On this episode of Just Common Sense, Dr. Johnny Hunter and Pat Hunter open with a clear word to the Body of Christ: don't tune out the news — use discernment. From a nationwide blood pressure medication recall to Waymo robotaxi safety concerns, from a near-collision at Boston Logan to the curious case of the Obama Center being a "presidential center" without any presidential records, the Hunters walk listeners through the headlines that matter. But the heart of the episode lands on a Brooklyn coffee shop refusing service to Jewish Congressman Dan Goldman — and a New York mayor who refused to condemn it. From there, Pat and Dr. Johnny open Proverbs 11, James 2, Exodus 23, Leviticus 19, and Romans 8 to remind every believer that God hates dishonest scales and shows no partiality — and neither should we. A timely, Spirit-led call to mercy, justice, and standing with Israel.

Just Common Sense | 166 | A Legacy That Won't Be Silenced

Dr. Johnny Hunter, Pat Hunter, and Tahia welcome Rev. Dr. Hiram Crawford, Jr. and his wife Dr. Jeronna Crawford to celebrate a multigenerational legacy of bold pro-life, pro-family ministry rooted in Chicago and reaching across the nation. The Crawford family carries one of the most consequential legacies in the modern pro-life, pro-family movement. Rev. Hiram Crawford Sr. founded the Pro-Life, Pro-Family Coalition in 1985 — coining the very terms — and gathered pastors across the African American community to defend life, marriage, and Christian family values. Today, his son carries that mantle as president of the coalition, while his wife Dr. Jeronna shares remarkable stories from her years as a Chicago Public Schools principal where prayer, abstinence education, and Spirit-led leadership transformed an entire community. From confronting city hall to credit unions in 39 churches, this is a conversation about generational faithfulness — and a clear call to stand up for Jesus in our generation, too. Faithfulness is generational — and the Crawford family proves the gospel still passes from father, to son, to grandchildren who stand.
