March 15, 2023 Rooted Conference: Clark Fobes, "Politics and God's Kingdom: Mediating in a Divided World and a Divided Home"
In this episode of the Rooted Conference podcast, Clark Fobes dives into church history to demonstrate that many of the political conflicts we see in our current day are replays of prior conflicts. The Church has always struggled to know its place in the public sphere. How should the church engage with culture: do we shape and influence and participate in culture, or do we separate and disengage? The questions are as old as the church itself.

March 02, 2023 Rooted Conference: Russel Moore, "Facing Your Fears Without Losing Your Soul - How the Gospel Equips Us for Our Crisis of Courage"
Teaching from the life of Elijah at the Rooted 2021 Conference, Dr. Russell Moore encourages youth ministers to find their courage in the way of weakness- the way of the Cross. While Elijah demonstrated God's great power on Mount Carmel, he must then learn the way of weakness in the wilderness. So, too, youth ministers and parents must be willing to appear weak, foolish, and irrelevant to a world that will not recognize the strength we have in Christ.

February 15, 2023 Rooted Conference: Anna Meade Harris: "This Anxious Age: Finding Rest For Your Family In the Promises of God"
In this recording from Rooted 2021, Anna Meade Harris talks about the connection between parental anxiety and our kids' anxiety. In order to break free of our own anxieties for our children, parents must go to God first. We repent of any idols and turn to Scripture to remind ourselves of God's goodness and sovereignty. As God begins to set us free of crippling worry and fear, parents become more available to help their children deal with anxiety.

January 04, 2023 Rooted Conference: Jason Williams, "Tribalism, Cancel Culture, and Social Justice"
Teaching from James 2, with an eye towards Jesus' prayer for unity in John 17, Jason Williams examines the effects of the sin of partiality on the body of Christ. He demonstrates how this sin of preferring certain people based on externals leads naturally into tribalism, which then leads to outright rejection. Williams shows us how the gospel leads instead to unity and mutual thriving.
