The Heidi St. John Podcast

Join me for Part 2 in this series!

Tensions are running high in our nation and in our world right now. Last week on Instagram, I mentioned that I was praying for a peaceful transition of power between Adminstrations, and my new friend, Aaron Young, commented that we needed to do a better job actually talking with each other—black and white—so that we can have a better understanding of where each of us is coming from. I couldn't agree more, and so, I invited two friends of color on the show with me this week.

It's hard at times, but listening to each other is good. I hope you'll be blessed as Aaron, Dr. Lainna Callentine and myself talk openly and honestly about race, the culture, and what we have in common. Be encouraged! We are brothers and sisters in Christ!

Last week, I spoke about yet another Christian blogger who has publicly stepped away from the authority of Scripture. My admonishment was aimed at Christians who claim the name of Jesus while simultaneously living in a way that damages the message of the cross and is in direct violation to God’s clear instruction.  The backlash was appalling—but more than that, it was a reflection of where we are as a culture—and as the Church today.

We’ve lost our way—and God is saying, “Come back to Me!” We are called be be standard-bearers. We are called to speak the truth in love.  Listen in!
