Perception Is Not Reality. As culture becomes more fixated on feelings and perceptions rather than truth, it becomes more difficult to know if and when we should engage in culture wars.

Ep. 60 - Perception Is Not Reality

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.

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.
