“Our goal every day is to help you live in agreement with your unique divine design in all five aspects of your life: physical, intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual. It is my honor and joy to bring you insights from a biblical perspective.”
— Carrie Abbott
“Truth, delivered with grace” – that phrase is at the heart of The Carrie Abbott Show, and it is a privilege to be Strategic Partners with one of the premier voices for biblical and conservative values in our state and the nation. Carrie Abbott is our friend and ally, and we promote her radio show every day with new episodes posted on our Washington Defender app. On each episode, you’ll hear biblical wisdom, positive perspectives, and refreshing insights from Carrie and her guests – some of the nation’s foremost experts, authors, and leaders. As her motto perfectly says: The Carrie Abbott Show offers you “News, Views, and Values You Can Trust”.
Praising God-Centered Living
Broadcasting from The Salem Station in Seattle, the Carrie Abbott Show is a daily Christian radio program and podcast that approaches current events, relationships, family life, and public policy from a biblical worldview. More deeply, Carrie’s show is a testament to her passion for the truth that praises God-centered living. With more than 3,000 episodes, her show has received high praise from many leaders, including the late Dr. James C. Dobson, Founder of Focus on the Family (see picture).
Carrie’s program seeks to combine biblical teaching with practical information that listeners can apply to everyday life. Abbott describes the show’s broader purpose as helping people live in agreement with God’s design in five areas of life: physical, intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual. Rather than limiting the program to explicitly religious subjects, the show regularly connects Christian principles to contemporary cultural questions. This broad approach has allowed the program to address subjects ranging from marriage and parenting to education, politics, health, and sexuality. Such a combination makes it particularly relevant for listeners seeking a distinctly Christian perspective on the issues shaping contemporary society.
About Carrie
Carrie is a remarkable woman. The show’s website shares this profile:
With 35 years of teaching, Carrie is a tremendously popular national speaker, author, and radio show host. Her witty and fast-paced style, combined with her depth of knowledge, is one of many reasons she is considered a great communicator and leading expert on the topic of relationships and sexuality from a biblical perspective.
She has spoken to people across the nation, in venues as diverse as: state legislatures, churches, universities, youth events, medical associations, conferences, banquets, broadcast radio & TV, and she is featured in several video series.
In addition to being a talk-show host, Carrie is the Founder and President of The Legacy Institute, an education organization that also partners with FPIW. Her résumé includes being a contributing author of True Beauty, a study on Biblical femininity, and the author and teacher in The Biblical Blueprint for Sexual Integrity, a video series used nationwide and internationally.
Her website highlights these details: “Carrie attended a variety of colleges, including Northwest University in Kirkland, WA, Capernwray Bible School in Sweden and England, where she met her husband, Greg. They have been happily married for 42 years, have five children, sixteen grandchildren, and live in the Seattle area.”
Truth with Grace
One of the major highlights of The Carrie Abbott Show is its emphasis on strengthening marriages, families, and personal relationships. Episodes frequently address communication, parenting, marriage, sexual purity and integrity, the differences between men and women, and challenges facing families in modern culture. The program’s approach is explicitly Christian and pro-life, emphasizing the dignity and value of every human being as creatio imagio – created in the immortal image of God. Abbott attempts to present these convictions in an accessible and encouraging manner, describing her approach as delivering truth with grace.
Another distinguishing feature of the show is the wide variety of issues and guests it presents (see above). Please note the high caliber and trustworthy guests. It is truly impressive. Abbott regularly interviews authors, ministry leaders, educators, counselors, policy experts, and other specialists who bring additional knowledge and experience to the discussion. These top-tier guests know they will be treated with utmost respect by Carrie, who has a gift for fostering positive and warm conversations.
Topics can shift considerably from one episode to another, allowing listeners to hear discussions about spiritual growth, parenting, cultural trends, education, health, politics, pro-life issues, and public policy. Recent programming demonstrates this variety, including discussions about parenting principles, marriage communication, reading and screen use, sleep among young adults, and faith and family. This mixture gives the program a format that is both educational and topical. Here is a sample of some of the topics she covers:
The Carrie Abbott Show also has a significant broadcasting and podcast presence. Abbott has hosted daily radio programming since 2011, and the show’s archive now contains thousands of episodes.
