From the Oxford Dictionary’s Word of the Year (“rage bait”) to Super Bowl halftime controversy, from Ten Commandments legislation to immigration theology, from Christian influencers to monetized faith — this episode wrestles with what it means to follow Jesus in a world driven by outrage, clicks, and cultural division.

Along the way, we explore:

• Why “rage bait” may define our digital ageWhether Bad Bunny is “un-American” (and what that even means)
• The performative spirituality behind posting the Ten Commandments in schools
• A theological showdown between Speaker Mike Johnson and Rev. Dr. William Barber III
• The tension Christian influencers face when monetization collides with compassion
• Paul’s call to kenosis — self-emptying — in a culture obsessed with self-securing

At its heart, this conversation asks: Are we pursuing faithfulness… or just managing anxiety? Are we building the Kingdom… or protecting our own?

It’s thoughtful. It’s honest. It’s occasionally sarcastic.
