It is a family's worst nightmare. Devout Catholic parents are fighting in court to regain custody of their 17-year-old daughter, Sophie, and stop Massachusetts authorities from medically transitioning her with high-dose testosterone. In December 2024, the Department of Children and Families (DCF) removed the then 15-year-old from her home because her parents, Joseph and Arlene Kutzko, would not recognize their daughter as a boy due to their faith—an identity change they allege staff at Algonquin Regional High School initiated in secret. Although physical abuse claims against Joseph were deemed unfounded, a permanent restraining order was issued against the family, and DCF cut off contact after the Kutzkos would not call Sophie by a male name or pronouns.
 
Appearing on the Lighthouse Faith podcast alongside attorney Vernadette Broyles, the devastated parents exposed how DCF has housed their daughter in a boys' dormitory, stripped away her Catholic faith by denying her Sunday Mass, and put her on birth control and psychiatric drugs. As the family fights DCF's court attempt to administer testosterone and demands a full psychological evaluation for Sophie, Broyles is pushing Congress to ensure no loving parent's refusal to transition a child is ever branded as "child abuse."Learn more about your ad choices.

In 1985, when Kamal Saleem arrived in the United States, he intended to conquer the West in the name of radical Islam. What Kamal didn't intend was that a tragic accident and a divine encounter with Christian medical professionals would permanently alter the course of his life. "The love and sacrificial giving of these men," says Kamal, caused him "to cry out to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, acknowledging his need for the Savior".
Kamal Saleem, founder of Koome Ministries, talks about his belief in "the One True and Living God," Jesus, and introduces his book, <a href="https://koomeministries.com/">Ishmael Redeemed: Called to the Kingdom</a>. The book explores how the biblical divide between Ishmael and Isaac correlates directly with the religious divides in today's culture. Kamal explains that his objective is "to unveil the beautiful truth of God’s original plans for the tribes of Ishmael (the Muslim people) and expose the ugly truth concerning the true agenda of radical Islam".

Ishmael Redeemed: Called to the Kingdom

"Sometimes God takes an appointed time, an appointed moment to intervene in your life." — Daniel FazzinaSome miracles happen instantly; others are slow brewed over time. God works in both ways and every way in between, displaying His divine interventions in our world. Christian author and journalist Daniel Fazzina has spent years documenting the Lord's miracles, so the world knows there is a God who deeply loves and cares for us. Fazzina suggests we shouldn't just look for a repeat of the parting of the Red Sea—we should look for everyday miracles closer to home.
On this episode of Lighthouse Faith, Fazzina discusses the audiobook release of <a href="https://ebooks.faithlife.com/product/42828/divine-intervention-50-true-stories-of-gods-miracles-today">Divine Intervention: 50 True Stories of God's Miracles Today</a> and his upcoming event, "<a href="https://events.artofheaven.com/event?id=3">Power of Testimony</a>," taking place on Long Island, NY, on September 12th. For Fazzina, finding miracles isn't the challenge. It's convincing people to open their minds to stories of unexplained healings, spiritual transformations, and even resurrection.

The Awe-Inspiring Miracles of God

Dr. Frank Turek holds many titles: he is a dynamic speaker, author, and notably, theological mentor to the late Charlie Kirk. In 2020, the Turning Point USA founder was full of passion for the Gospel, so he reached out to Dr. Turek after watching many of his videos on <a href="https://crossexamined.org/dr-frank-turek/">CrossExamined.org</a> and from there the two developed a deep earthly and spiritual bond.

Dr Gary Chapman: Mastering The 5 Love Languages

The president of the largest Christian broadcasters association is calling attention to a spiritual battle he believes is raging in our world today. We're all part of this battle whether or not we realize it or believe it. This battle is not being waged in tiny, dark corners, it is front and center: in our schools, in our halls of government, in our courts, and across our media.
On this episode of the Lighthouse Faith podcast, Troy Miller, President and CEO of the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB), shares his belief that we are in a global battle for the Judeo-Christian worldview. And just like the Bible warns, we are wrestling not against flesh and blood, "but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." (Ephesians 6:12 KJV)

True peace with Iran may not come from diplomacy, but from a spiritual transformation. On this episode of the Lighthouse Faith podcast, Dr. Hormoz Shariat, founder of Iran Alive Ministries, discusses the biblical prophecy that God will "set [His] throne in Elam," an area entirely within modern-day Iran. 
Dr. Shariat shares his profound personal journey: once a young student shouting "Death to America" during the Islamic Revolution, he later converted to Christianity while studying in the U.S. After his brother
was arrested and executed by the Iranian regime, Dr. Shariat channeled his grief and newfound faith into a lifelong mission to spread the Gospel to the Iranian people.

Unleash Jesus's Explosive Joy for an Extraordinary Life

As America celebrates its 250th year, Lauren takes a look back at a classic episode of the Lighthouse Faith podcast with prolific author and pastor, Robert J. Morgan.

In 2020, Pastor Morgan published the timeless book, <a href="https://www.robertjmorgan.com/100verses/">100 Bible Verses That Made America</a>, which serves as a powerful reminder that the Bible is woven in and through America's conception, birth, and journey. The history spans centuries, starting in the 1500s with the arrival of Spanish missionaries to the New World. Among them was Antonio de Montesinos, who boldly quoted Matthew 3:3 to those treating native inhabitants cruelly, asserting that they, too, were made in God’s image. Pastor Morgan also reminds us in the prologue that America’s first president, George Washington, kissed the sacred Scriptures at his inauguration. Between these two monumental moments are 98 more defining chapters in American history where the Bible was invoked as a source of strength, compassion, mercy, and light.
