With a little over one week until the second annual Counteract USA Resolve to Stand Conference, Abigail breaks down the theme of this year's conference: becoming a Josiah generation.

Abigail discusses the parallels of the moment King Josiah faced alongside the moment we're in now as a nation and as believers in 2024.

The Resolve to Stand Conference is Sept. 13-14 in Rogers, AR, and will feature speakers like Allie Beth Stuckey, Victor Marx, AJ Hurley, pastors, politicians, Gen Z leaders, and more--all with the goal of encouraging and equipping believers to resolve to stand upon the truth of the Word of God, becoming a Josiah generation.

Tickets are still available at counteractusa.org! Use code RESOLVE20 for 20% off your tickets!

Before [Josiah] there was no king like him, who turned to the Lord with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his might…”

2 Kings 23:25a

In conclusion for our unexpectedly controversial "back to school" series, Abigail tells some stories from college that shaped and strengthened her faith.

"Have no fear of them, nor be troubled, but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,"

1 Peter 3:14b-15 ESV

In 2024, returning to the values and principles that built the United States of America might seem pretty radical.

In this episode, Grant discusses how traditional values are now considered a "threat to democracy," but those of us who love our country must be willing to speak up and advocate for those values, incrementally counteracting our current state of affairs--even if it means facing "mean" words or opposition.

Now that the 2024 Summer Olympics are over, Allison sits down to recap and react to some viral media moments from the past several weeks, pertaining to the games. Should certain sports be in the Olympics? Can subjective sports be graded/ranked objectively? Is the "fail" trend really depict failure?

Today on the Counteract Podcast, Abigail talks about this idea of just going to school, doing what the professor wants, "getting the grade," and getting out of there.

But as Christians, is this something we can really do? Or are we called to be bold witnesses for the gospel in all areas... even the classroom?

"For 'everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.' How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in Him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, 'How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!'"

Romans 10:13-15 ESV

Today, Grant breaks down the concept of multiculturalism: what it is, what it does, and how, despite common belief, it doesn't really work.

Note: Multiculturalism has less to do with individuals, and more to do with a sense (or lack thereof) of shared values and a national identity that are essential to the cohesion of a nation. As Christians, we love people of all backgrounds and beliefs, but ultimately, our desire is that they would come to believe in Jesus as Lord of their lives. The world would call that "ethnocentric," but we know that Jesus is the only way, truth, and life.
