John and Maria break down some trends in the news during BreakPoint This Week. They discuss how our response to the pandemic can cause us to despair as well as the importance of keeping our eyes on Christ and building our hope around a Christian worldview.

Maria then turns  to a question regarding the challenges in our thinking about childrearing, while John highlights two recent podcasts where the hosts shared concern about drooping birthrates and how that is impacting our culture.

All of these topics follow a quick tour through BreakPoint commentaries from this week where Maria asks John for greater insight on what he’s seeing going on in the culture.
