Brave Nation

Join Asnat Cohen, a knowledgable citizen of Israel and tour guide to explain about Jewish culture and how it impacts the world today. We discuss what Jewish people think about Christians, what we have in common and where we differ concerning evangelism, the afterlife, economics, and global conflicts.  Asnat brings a new perspective to the phrase “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.” We discuss what people get wrong about privilege and how to fight against toxic tribalism.

In today’s talk, Leigh Sloan presents a compelling framework that encourages us to explore the dual roles (priests and kings) we hold as Christian leaders: the Staff or the Scepter mindsets. This concept is rooted in biblical references, particularly in 1 Peter and Revelation, where we see the idea of a royal priesthood. 

Leigh highlights the stories of Joseph and Daniel, who exemplified the kingly mindset. They improved their environments and brought value to those around them, even in challenging situations. This raises an important question: How can we transform our spheres of influence into places of goodness and prosperity? 

God cares about the real issues we face—economic, social, and even technological. As we navigate challenges, from AI to global injustices, we’re called to seek solutions, not just spiritual answers. Leigh urges us not to shy away from our power as believers. We have a responsibility to engage with the world and make a difference, whether through political action or community involvement. Every action, no matter how small, contributes to a greater good.

As we face the upcoming election season, remember that your vote is a powerful expression of your authority. Don’t succumb to hopelessness; instead, embrace your role as a solution bearer.
