Join Bill Bunkley for this Friday afternoon briefing from the studios in Tampa, Florida, as he explores the intersection of faith, current events, and culture. With oil prices easing and stock markets rallying on tentative positive developments from the Iranian conflict and the Strait of Hormuz, Bill discusses how President Trump's leadership is creating a brighter financial outlook, including ships unloading crude and natural gas in America.

He dives deep into the ongoing trial of the accused assassin of Charlie Kirk in Utah, arguing strongly for live cameras in the courtroom—drawing a biblical parallel between public sin and the need for public accountability, especially since the assassination was witnessed by thousands (and millions via live broadcast). Bill honors the wishes of Erica Kirk and emphasizes justice for this prominent national leader.

Other highlights include:
Growing anti-Israel sentiment in Congress and among younger Americans, with Bill affirming his strong support for Israel as a Christian Zionist grounded in Scripture.
A conversation with Jeff Johnston from Focus on the Family's Daily Citizen about two major Supreme Court victories: one protecting parental rights and teacher free speech in California transgender notification cases, and another striking down therapy bans for minors struggling with same-sex attraction or gender confusion in Colorado—huge wins for families, religious freedom, and free speech.
An in-depth interview with Dr. Ted Baehr of MovieGuide.org on what makes a successful film, the 150 criteria for great storytelling, character arcs, worldview, and why Christians represent a key audience for family-friendly and faith-based movies.
Updates on Florida politics: Gov. Ron DeSantis' push for an AI Bill of Rights, easier vaccine opt-outs for parents, congressional redistricting, and concerns over Republican gridlock ahead of midterms.
Invitation to the 33rd Annual National Day of Prayer Brunch in Tampa on May 7th with special guest Kelvin Cochran.
Plus, a reminder about Florida's strict new lawn watering rules and fire danger, and encouragement to try Rough Greens for healthier pets.

Throughout, Bill weaves in biblical principles on sin/confession, blessing Israel, parental authority, and cultural engagement. Call in at 877-943-9673 to share your thoughts on cameras in the Kirk trial or selling military assets to Israel. Tune in weekdays at 3 PM on Let's Talk Faith or catch the full show for thoughtful, faith-informed analysis of the day's biggest stories.
