My review of J.D. Greear's new book "Everyday Revolutionary."

J.D. Greear’s new book Everyday Revolutionary promises a bold path forward for Christians in culture, but is it really revolutionary or just Third-Way 2.0 with better marketing?

Jon Harris returns to Conversations That Matter to unpack Greear’s updated playbook: tougher rhetoric on Democrats than the 2010s versions, yet still heavy on non-partisan platitudes and light on hard stands over immigration, criminal justice, or gun control.

Why does Greear insist conservatives must publicly repent of the Right’s sins to maintain credibility?

We applaud the strong “theology of place” and exile framework… then watch it collapse into confusion: activism is supposedly secondary to the gospel, yet suddenly mandatory when the Bible “clearly” speaks as long as it doesn't alienate a particular political party.

From benching George Whitefield over slavery to walking the purple-city tightrope, Harris argues the book ultimately functions as reputation management rather than a call to costly faithfulness.

Is Everyday Revolutionary the renewal the church needs, or a sophisticated toolkit for evangelical shape-shifting? A candid, no-punches-pulled conversation that matters.

Jon talks about his latest substack article "The Neo-Evangelical Mirage: Relevance Strategies That Win Crowds and Lose the Church" where he opines about the dangers of neo-evangelical desire for influence and how this could translate into chasing Gen Z men to the determent of the church's greater health.

In this episode of Conversations That Matter, Jon explores the relationship between politics and morality for Christians.

He argues that while politics undeniably involves moral elements, it is not fundamentally a cosmic battle between good and evil. Instead, politics is about preserving and improving a specific way of life for one's family, community, and people.

Using sports as an analogy, Harris explains that games have rules and moral expectations, yet the goal is one team prevailing through local loyalty and ordered love, not universal ethics.

Christians can support opposing teams faithfully, just as political issues often require wisdom rather than binary moral judgments. Examples include debating condos versus scenic preservation, allying with feminists to protect girls' sports, taxing vices like marijuana to curb harm, or opposing alcohol bans to safeguard family heritage.

Harris stresses the art of the possible: forming limited partnerships with flawed individuals against greater threats, as on Flight 93, and even opposing morally superior foes if they endanger your home, as in historical wars where Christians fought on both sides.

God's moral law remains universal on core issues like abortion, but most political decisions hinge on context, identity, and stewardship. The aim is flourishing for those under your care morally, economically, and culturally. Harris rejects situational ethics while affirming situated wisdom in pursuing the best for your people.

I argue that in the culture war—amid Christianity’s collapse (only 18% of Zoomers remain deeply religious), the Left’s 2020 tyranny, and the Right’s self-destructive infighting (as Matt Walsh warns)—Christian conservatives may engage in limited co-belligerency with unlikely allies to defend our way of life, but only when three pillars remain intact: intention (preserving inherited order against existential threats, per Scruton, Abram’s pagan rescue of Lot in Genesis 14, and Nehemiah’s wall); identity (Schmitt’s friend/enemy distinction, rejecting liberalism’s failed pluralism and decisionism’s tyranny, favoring federalism); and integrity (unbreakable moral lines—Daniel’s refusal, Joseph’s flight, and Paradine’s rejection of witchcraft in “The Valley Was Still”). Any alliance that demands we compromise conscience, blur our distinctions, or induce sin is strictly forbidden—no exceptions.
