Why is our culture obsessed with sex, race, and Israel? And what do these moral battles have in common?

In this episode, we unpack a powerful biblical lens that explains our modern obsession with virtue-signaling and moral outrage.

From pride flags to anti-racism campaigns to protests over Gaza, each movement taps into humanity’s desperate need to feel good...to be one of the “good guys.”

But Scripture reveals that this hunger for moral justification isn’t new; it began in the Garden of Eden.

Discover how the gospel uniquely answers our craving for moral virtue, without hypocrisy, pride, or destruction.
