Hymn #21 To Forgive


Listen Later

After a summer break, Coach is back sharing his concern of the polarization in American politics but tragically needed to change his example due to horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk. If "We the People" believe in Freedom of Speech, then no matter your political persuasion you should be denouncing what occurred, sadly there are many people who disliked Kirk in life who are trying to play the "yeah it was wrong, but" game.


Coach then questions the propriety of a curriculum focused on the negatives of US History and the progressive view that has made its way from academia into the K-12 classroom (sharing experiences with his own daughter's school district who Language Arts department has bought into the oppressed/oppressor view of Paulo Freire hook, line, and sinker) and discusses the Hitchcock film "The Rope" where students enact the philosophy of their beloved teacher with deadly results.

The hymn concludes with a discussion of how sin forms in our inability to control our desires and shares the solution that Charlie Kirk and he found, God's love demonstrated through Jesus Christ.


The song for this week is a little known Christian song from the 80's from one of Coach's favorite artists, Steve Taylor. Here is the song he discusses in the hymn.
