In this episode of Conversations That Matter, Jon delivers a clear, Scripture-grounded evaluation of the top news impacting Christians over the past two weeks.

He breaks down the big progressive wins in New York City, where Mayor Zohran Mamdani-endorsed candidates Brad Lander, Claire Valdez, and Darializa Avila Chevalier swept their Democratic congressional primaries — ousting establishment incumbents in a significant shift for the left.

Jon also explores how NAPARC churches are addressing issues of race and ethnicity, provides a recap of the recent PCA General Assembly, major Supreme Court wins for the Trump Administration, J.D. Hall’s interview with Tucker Carlson on Christian Zionism, standout moments from The Jeremy Boreing Show, and more.

The Southern Baptist Convention’s annual meeting is next week in Orlando, and this one actually feels different. Jon Harris gives a clear-eyed breakdown of the last decade of decline — from Great Commission Resurgence failures, social justice influence, CRT, female pastors, and massive spending on abuse investigations — and why conservatives finally have a real opportunity for renewal.

Topics covered:

• Why the SBC has been declining in membership, giving, and churches

• The problems with diversity initiatives and Resolution 9

• Willie Rice running for President — his public repentance and platform

• The Truth & Unity Amendment on female pastors

• Honest critique of several key resolutions (immigration, religious liberty, political violence, etc.)

If you’re a messenger or a concerned Southern Baptist, this is the year to show up and get involved.

In this episode, I break down the Rio Grande Presbytery’s trial of PCA pastor Zach Garris—how their case against him on slavery views backfired, resulting in a controversial “corrupt speech” conviction instead. A revealing look at judicial process, ideological tensions, and potential fallout in the PCA.

Jon Harris examines the top Christian Conservative news of the week: the PCA Rio Grande Presbytery’s vote to censure Zach Garris for unwholesome speech in online exchanges (while acquitting him on the slavery-related charge), the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church’s new report condemning Kinism and race realism, and McLean Bible Church’s loss in a Virginia appeals court case over a disputed 2021 elder election.
