Finding Your Spine
In a time when courage feels increasingly rare, Finding Your Spine challenges the status quo. Hosted by Dr. Chase Spears, this weekly podcast explores how Christians—and even secular conservatives—can stand firm in their values amid the pressures of cancel culture. With insightful commentary and bold conversations, Dr. Spears examines the tradeoff many make between conscience and comfort, reminding listeners that true freedom requires the spine to defend it. Tune in each week for thought-provoking discussions that inspire moral courage in an age of compromise.
Finding Your Spine
Christian Camaraderie
Chase Spears hosts Dr. Joshua Bowman, Executive Director of The Ciceronian Society, to explore how Christian friendship fosters moral strength. They discuss oases—communities that combat isolation and nurture virtues like resolve, drawing from Hannah Arendt and C.S. Lewis. Bowman shares insights on faith, fatherhood, and the church’s role in cultural renewal.
