My friend Abraham Hamilton joins me and we’re talking about the importance of standing firm on biblical principles and the difference between Christian liberty and gospel issues. We’re also focusing on the role of parents in preparing their children for the current cultural landscape and the theology of family and children in today's society. Parents are ambassadors for God and it is critical that we are raising counter-cultural warriors.

Today I’m joined by my friend Bryce Eddy. We’re talking about the importance of politics in the church and why it is imperative for Christians to engage in the political realm. We’re discussing the situation at the southern border and the need for masculinity in society and the role of men as protectors, but not without highlighting the importance of women defending traditional femininity. We’re here to encourage men, women, and pastors in particular to take their place and be active participants in the political conversation. It matters too much to sit on the bench!
