Today we respond to Phil Vischer of VeggieTales. His podcast and co-hosts of The Holy Post Podcast critiqued and criticized (and mocked, but no worries) me and Alisa Childers statements about deconstruction. Cooper Stuff  unpacks their statements and finds some points of agreement but clearly disagree on much. Does the Holy Post belittle some things that ought not be belittled? We discuss sexual immorality, sanctification, the armor of God, the Leftward drift, and much more. There’s a lot of meat in todays episode. We hope you’re hungry.       ► Buy John’s new book, Awake & Alive to Truth: Finding Truth in the Chaos of a Relativistic World http://www.johnlcooper.com/awake   ► Subscribe to the podcast: www.johnlcooper.com  Apple: http://bit.ly/cooperstuff  Spotify: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffspotify  CastBox: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffcast   ► Connect with John L.

Cooperstuff Ep. 102 - A Candid Response To Phil Vischer Of VeggieTales

Cooper Stuff Podcast is an in depth look at what drives John Cooper (lead singer of Skillet); a commentary on culture from a traditional Biblical paradigm: 

Has modern culture stolen your world view?  With all the screaming voices, who do you trust?   How much have you been subversively influenced?  Cooper Stuff aims to point out subtle and not so subtle influences on culture with a traditional, Biblical world view/emphasis... while boiling complex issues down to simple language.

This week on Sword and Shield we discuss Paul’s exhortation not to be deluded by enticing or plausible arguments in Colossians 2:4. This is relevant to our current moment of deconstruction and the need for clear, biblical teaching. Paul wrestled and was “in conflict“ over his concern for people being deceived by lies. We should have the same love and care for others. ► Buy John’s new book, Wimpy, Weak, And Woke http://www.johnlcooper.com/wimpyweakwoke ► Subscribe to the podcast: www.johnlcooper.com  Apple: http://bit.ly/cooperstuff  Spotify: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffspotify  CastBox: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffcast ► Connect with John L.

S&S Ep. 8 - Deconstruction and Plausible Arguments

The Chief’s kicker, Harrison Butker sparked a major controversy when he gave the commencement speech at Benedictine college, where he promoted traditional family values and a biblical worldview. The meltdown and vitriol towards Butker in the media and from celebrities such as Pearl Jam’s Singer, Eddie Vedder has been frankly surprising. Today we discuss what Butker said; how his detractors have lied about his speech; and finally we play the viral clips from Eddie Vedder so you can decide who is being more honest, righteous, and reasonable. ► Buy John’s new book, Wimpy, Weak, And Woke http://www.johnlcooper.com/wimpyweakwoke https://a.co/d/j2JNRCV ► Subscribe to the podcast: www.johnlcooper.com  Apple: http://bit.ly/cooperstuff  Spotify: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffspotify  CastBox: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffcast ► Connect with John L.

Cooper Stuff Ep. 205 - Harrison Butker Sparks Uncontroversial Controversy

Today we discuss what “zeal for the lord” means. We read from Psalm 69 and discuss how David can be so confident that he has acted innocently and is being unjustly lied about and hated. This leads to the definition and at times, painful results of having zeal for God.  ► Buy John’s new book, Wimpy, Weak, And Woke http://www.johnlcooper.com/wimpyweakwoke ► Subscribe to the podcast: www.johnlcooper.com  Apple: http://bit.ly/cooperstuff  Spotify: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffspotify  CastBox: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffcast ► Connect with John L.

S&S Ep. 7 - Zeal for God Makes People Hate You

Last week the Biden administration memorialized “transgender visibility day” on the same day as Easter. The public mockery of Christianity is bad enough, but even worse is the silence of Christian leaders. But the worst is that some of those Christian leaders have reprimanded and even rebuked Christians for being upset or calling out President Biden. Today, we discuss two principles: rulers are obligated to obey God; and Church leaders need to wake up.  ► Buy John’s new book, Wimpy, Weak, And Woke http://www.johnlcooper.com/wimpyweakwoke https://a.co/d/j2JNRCV ► Subscribe to the podcast: www.johnlcooper.com  Apple: http://bit.ly/cooperstuff  Spotify: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffspotify  CastBox: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffcast ► Connect with John L.

Cooper Stuff Ep. 204 - Mocking Easter and the Blindness of the Church

Happy Easter, where we celebrate the most important event in history: the resurrection of Jesus Christ. I hope you enjoy this encouragement and reminder of why the resurrection matters. ► Buy John’s new book, Wimpy, Weak, And Woke http://www.johnlcooper.com/wimpyweakwoke https://a.co/d/j2JNRCV ► Subscribe to the podcast: www.johnlcooper.com  Apple: http://bit.ly/cooperstuff  Spotify: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffspotify  CastBox: http://bit.ly/cooperstuffcast ► Connect with John L.
