A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I look forward to every episode of Breakpoint. Super grateful for this ministry and the consistent take on culture with a biblical worldview. If anyone wants to go deeper, look into the Colson Fellows program!

John Stonestreet’s commentaries have really made me turn a corner in my faith and understanding of my role as a Christian citizen. He describes culture without sugarcoating it and the mix of philosophical and pragmatic ideas that he shares have helped me learn a lot about being critical of culture but also doing my part in redeeming it until Christ comes.

I've been a Breakpoint fan since first hearing Chuck's commentary on Christian radio. It continues to be a solid source for rightly evaluating this cultural moment.

PoncaFalls · Apr 2025

This podcast is my absolute favorite. As a Christian, wife, mom and millennial, I find myself from time to time lost in how to process all of the crazy this world has to offer. Thank you for applying Godly worldview to the onslaught of news and reminding me daily that our God is King who has not and will not relinquish control. Keep letting God use you all 💜
