Was Christianity historically meant to shape entire cultures and societies — or was it only supposed to be a private, personal faith?
In this episode of the podcast, we sit down to examine the biblical, historical, and theological case for a Christianity that transforms nations, not just individuals. Starting with the Great Commission in Matthew 28, we trace the cultural mandate through Scripture, the early church, Christendom, and America’s founding.
We also address the major objections — Two Kingdom Theology, Dispensationalism, and the idea that “my kingdom is not of this world” means Christ has nothing to say about culture and government.
