"Real Faith for the Real World: From Normandy to Now—The Fight Between Good and Evil Is Far From Over"
Podcasts > Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow
Saturday, June 6, 2026
82 years ago on June 6, 1944, 160,000 Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy to fight pure evil. They didn't negotiate with it. They didn't look the other way. They stood against it at the cost of everything.
The battle between good and evil has not ended. It has just moved to different ground.
That same fight is playing out today.
Michigan State Representative Karen Whitsett stepped away from a successful political career because she could no longer reconcile her Christian faith with her party's platform. She didn't come out swinging. She stood her ground. And it cost her.
In this week’s show, host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow, wingman Christy Mendelow, and guest Jeff Egli use her story as a model—not a political one, but a Christian one. What does it actually look like to put your life in alignment with your faith? What does it look like to pull away from the mob, stand firm, and refuse to call evil good?
You don't have to be a politician to face that question. You face it every day.
Listen and find out what it looks like to stand firm when the fight between good and evil lands at your door.
