Laus Deo is a program which investigates and seeks healthy Christian thinking on all sorts of issues. Frequently the program will compare and contrast contemporary thinking with ancient Christian thinking. Sometimes the program will involve debate and disagreement as the guests hold distinctly different perspectives. Other times the program will be a discussion by experts or scholars in issues significant for Christian life. Sometimes a topic will be discussed simply because it is fascinating.

In keeping with the title, which means "Praise be unto God", the program exists to bring praise unto our Lord by provoking and assisting listeners to think in ways more conducive to our Lord’s purposes.
