Dustin Messer, teacher of Theology and Worldview at Legacy Christian Academy, Senior Fellow of Theology and Culture at The Center for Cultural Leadership, and the Pastoral Associate at Christ Church (PCA) in Carolton, TX, joins us to discuss Rod Dreher's Benedict Option and how should the church engage culture.

In CrossPolitic news we cover women in the military and bible verses, Liberal Democratic leader in the UK Tim Farron steps down because it is getting hard for him to be a Christian and a political leader, and Governor Matt Bevin's call to prayer.
