Along the way, Steve sits down with guests God is working through, highlights stories of transformation, explores what’s happening in the news through a Christian lens, and—yes—delivers a steady dose of dad jokes.

Serious about faith. Serious about fun. And serious about helping you live like Jesus where it matters most.

It’s a Fun Friday on The Steve Marston Show! Steve kicks off the program with a powerful story about Karen Whitsett and her decision to walk away from politics after realizing it was affecting her relationship with Christ. It sparks a deeper conversation about self-examination, spiritual maturity, and identifying the “idols” that can quietly pull us away from God.

Plus, plenty of Friday fun: a hilarious rundown of headlines from The Babylon Bee, listener questions about faith and everyday life, and a great conversation with Adam Holz from Focus on the Family about entertainment, the upcoming Academy Awards, and how families can navigate today’s media wisely.

It’s encouragement, culture, comedy, and practical faith—plus the Dad Joke of the Day and the best comedy clip on the internet.
