Just Common Sense | 165 | Pastor Clenard Childress

You're a pro-murderer." — Pastor Clenard Childress On this stirring episode of Just Common Sense, Dr. Johnny Hunter and Pat Hunter welcome longtime friend, fellow soldier, and pro-life pioneer Pastor Clenard Childress, Jr. of New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, New Jersey — founder of LEARN Northeast Region and one of the most courageous voices for the sanctity of black life in America. Together they honor the late Elder Dr. Levon Yuille, recount the untold story behind the Kermit Gosnell trial press conference with Day Gardner, and unpack the political theater surrounding the Delaney Hall ICE facility in New Jersey. But the heart of this episode arrives when Pastor Childress delivers a prophetic word God has placed on him for clergy across America: there is no such thing as a pro-choice clergyman.

Anchored in Exodus 23 and Proverbs 24, the conversation calls every listener to the same holy boldness Dr. Yuille embodied: you cannot look the other way. The episode closes with headlines that show why his message matters now more than ever.

Just Common Sense | 163 | Be Courageous and Keep Standing

Dr. Johnny and Pat Hunter return with a rallying call for believers to gear up, stay engaged, and refuse to retreat from the cultural and spiritual battles of our day. Dr. Johnny Hunter and Pat Hunter are back behind the mic with a powerful exhortation for weary believers: keep standing. Drawing from Ephesians 6, Galatians 6:9, and the bold example of the Apostle Paul, they remind Christians that spiritual warfare is real — and retreat is not an option. Using Paul's unwavering journey to Jerusalem as the centerpiece, the Hunters illustrate what it looks like to count the cost, gear up in the armor of God, and press forward even when the road is hard. They also unpack current headlines — from CIA findings on COVID's origins, to a Virginia Supreme Court ruling on gerrymandering, to California's transgender athletics controversy, to Cuba's collapsing power grid — connecting each story to the urgent need for Christians to be informed, engaged, and courageous. This is a call to suit up, show up, and stand firm.
