Ep15: The Nationals Bias Against Christians, Justice for Detransitioners, and Colbert’s Spiritual Co
In this week’s episode of Christianly, we examine how sports, medicine, and entertainment are all becoming battlegrounds in a larger war over reality itself. First, we look at the recent Washington Nationals controversy and the growing hostility toward openly Christian athletes, like their own Trevor Williams, in professional sports. Then we take a deep dive into the important May 2026 DOJ settlement with Texas Children’s Hospital, what happens when medicine stops healing the body and starts waging war against it, and hope for detransitioners. Finally, we close with late-night talk show host Stephen Colbert’s bizarre comments about the afterlife on his penultimate show before his final broadcast and why modern celebrity spirituality always seems to drift away from the center of Christianity.

About Christianly: In a world drowning in noise, you are invited to rediscover what it means to think and live Christianly - not as passive observers but as discerning witnesses who interpret our age through the lens of God's eternal truth (1 Chronicles 12:32; Matthew 10:16). Christianly seeks to cultivate wisdom, patience, and spiritual maturity in an anxious age - to weigh the times carefully, anchor our hearts in Scripture, and engage culture with both courage and compassion, shaped by allegiance to Christ above all.
