The Evangelical Legacy of Slavery with Sean McGever 49:42

för 6 dagar sedan49:42

49:42

We all like to think of ourselves as good people, right? Had we been around “back then,” we would have opposed slavery, marched for women’s suffrage, and rescued Jews from the Holocaust. But can we be so sure? The reality is that many prominent Christians, including those considered to be the Founding Fathers of Evangelicalism, have had major blindspots, particularly concerning slavery. But does the context and timeline in which you grew up provide a credible excuse for your behavior? Today’s guest, Sean McGever, is a historian and the author of “Ownership: The Evangelical Legacy of Slavery in Edwards, Wesley, and Whitefield.” Hear him unpack how the cultural thinking of the 18th century impacted Christianity and whether or not we should take that into consideration, or cancel these men altogether. Plus, is it generally true that Christians led the eventual abolitionist movement? And what are some possible modern blind spots in our culture today? " Joyful Outsiders " is available now!

How does he cope with all he sees? Is his ministry really solving the root of the problem? Listen now! Are you a protester too?

How Advisors Change Culture with Jeremy Brown 59:28

So, a Christian and a secular film festival director walk into a bar. Actually, they’re the same person. How? That’s the crazy story we’re telling on today’s episode when we continue our series breaking down each of the six types of “Joyful Outsiders” God uses to engage with culture. Jeremy Brown, a Christian and former Executive Director of a progressive, non-Christian film festival, joins us to provide an example of the advisor, those who impact culture by influencing the influential. Advisors are “in the room where it all happens” and aren’t necessarily in charge, but influence people in power. Jeremy explains his backstory and how he got involved with the internationally recognized True/False Film Fest. Did this secular organization know much about his personal faith convictions? How did he help bridge the gap between the film fest and one of the festival’s sponsors, his own church? And how did he handle the controversy that ensued after a contradictory sermon at his church led to a dramatic partnership ending that drew national attention? What kind of advice would he offer to other advisors with a foot in both worlds? Listen now! Are you an advisor too? Or maybe you’re an artist, protester, trainer, builder, or ambassador?

The Cultural Vibes, They Are A-Shiftin’ 1:05:43

för 27 dagar sedan1:05:43

Is it culturally acceptable to be a Christian again? Is it cool to be a conservative now? Is culture turning its back on the last ten progressive, anti-religious years? Consider today’s episode a vibe check on our current cultural moment. Everybody seems to be talking about a cultural vibe shift, but what does it mean? What’s changed? Keith and Patrick team up on today’s episode to break it down. They examine American vibe shifts of the past and provide a number of recent examples to prove a new cultural shift is here: Bible sales rising to an all-time high, Joe Rogan showcasing his spiritual openness, “Trump dances” trending in the NFL, tech billionaires proudly attending the inauguration, businesses shutting down DEI departments, Meta firing fact checkers, and more. But why is all of this happening? Did the progressive movement become a victim of its own success? And how should Christians react? Does this new cultural vibe shift present more opportunities for spreading the Gospel? Will a more shallow version of “cultural Christianity” begin to rise? Listen now!

Embrace the Cringe: What Comes After Postmodernism? with Paul Anleitner 1:17:19

för 5 weeks sedan1:17:19

1:17:19

“A period of cultural change is commencing.” That’s what Paul Anleitner recently posted on X. But what cultural vibe shift is he referencing? Have we come to the end of postmodernism? Paul joins Patrick on the pod today to discuss our new metamodernism moment. Paul is a writer, theologian of culture, podcast host, and pastor. He begins by explaining the progression from modernism to postmodernism, and how the 1990s ushered in a level of cynicism and suspicion that’s remained until just recently. He then explains how he’s observed a newer metamodern vibe shift: the exhaustion of cynicism, the failure of postmodernism, the myth of secular progressivism, and the crisis of meaning that’s led to a sincere desire for authenticity. Providing examples such as Creed and Ted Lasso, he explains why he believes our culture is ready to “embrace the cringe.” But what does a new metamodern era look like? And what opportunities does this metamodern moment open up for Christians? Listen now! " Joyful Outsiders " is available now! Learn more, read a sample chapter, and grab your own copy here .

How Builders Change Culture with Brent Beshore 1:05:04

“Create wealthy, autonomous consumption machines.” That’s been described as the end goal of the American dream. Sounds positive at face value. But is it biblical? This week’s episode continues our series of breaking down the six ways that Christians can impact culture as presented in our book, “ Joyful Outsiders .” Today, we’re focusing on builders, or people who build institutions where we live our common life (think: business, healthcare, education, church, etc.). To illustrate, we’re talking to Brent Beshore, Founder and President of Permanent Equity, a private equity firm that operates much differently than its counterparts. Brent starts by detailing his own journey and how he went from an atheist to a Christian. He explains how he weaves his faith into business, resisting the urge to create a model that’s built on self-reliance. He points out the pitfalls of the American dream, describes his ultimate goal for his businesses, and shares where he allows Christian values to come into play in business settings. Plus, is it a sin to be rich? How can someone know if it’s God, or the allure of the American dream, that’s calling them to an opportunity? And what advice would he give to people who want to resist the temptation to build their own kingdoms? Listen now! Are you a builder too?

Have you ever thought, “I want to get better at sharing my faith, but I don’t know where to start”? Then this episode is for you! In our new book, “ Joyful Outsiders ,” we break down six ways that Christians can change culture (without being changed by culture).

Joining us to provide such an example is our friend, Patrick Cox. Patrick is the Chief Production Officer at Veterans United Home Loans in Columbia, Missouri. Today, Patrick shares some practical evangelism tips learned through years of sharing his faith through “Faith and Doubt” discussion groups at work. He explains the motivation behind his drive for evangelism, whether or not he ever feels intimidated by the process, and how he addresses people’s most intense questions and skepticisms. Plus, what are the most common doubts he encounters? Has he noticed a current shift in the public’s opinion on Christianity? How should Christians approach those who have experienced church hurt? Patrick ends by providing some practical guidelines for more effectively sharing your faith. Listen now! Are you an ambassador? Or maybe you're an advisor, trainer, artist, builder, or protester?

They introduce each type: the trainer, the protester, the advisor, the artist, the ambassador, and the builder. The two share key insights for each, as well as biblical examples and temptations, or weak spots.

Abuse. Molestation. Same-sex attraction. Mental health crises. What if our hardest questions, secret struggles, and biggest doubts aren’t meant to stay secrets but can lead us closer to God’s heart? Brenna Blain is a contemporary theologian and the author of “Can I Say That?” She joins Patrick on the pod today to share her own journey of wrestling with God at the intersection of faith and suffering. Providing an open look into her past, she invites listeners to be vulnerable themselves, citing how God has consistently met her in the tension of her most complex questions and toughest circumstances.

As the dust begins to settle one month after the 2024 election, many have started to analyze what Donald Trump’s decisive victory says about the current state of the country. Today, Patrick and Keith are teaming up to break down a few of their favorite takes on it all, namely a piece from Ross Douthat of The New York Times. They discuss the resurgence of the anti-establishment movement, the death of mainstream media and the rise of “new media” sources, and the state of Liberalism in America. They break down what post-liberalism looks like on the left and the right and explain how radical outsiders are no longer outliers in their parties but prominent voices in each. They discuss how drastically the media landscape is changing and explain why 2024 is already being referred to as “The Podcast Election.” Plus, why does this hinge point in our culture matter for Christians?

Walking Through Deconstruction with Ian Harber 54:11

för 16 weeks sedan54:11

“Backslider.” A catch-all too often used to describe those within the faith who ask hard questions. But why doesn’t the church have a more positive category for its members who begin to question their faith? Is the solution really to just come up with the right answers and shut them down? Or is there something deeper happening? Today’s podcast guest, Ian Harber , speaks from personal experience. He shares his own process of deconstruction and reconstruction, which has taken more than ten years, and explores with Patrick what’s actually happening, both culturally and spiritually, when someone deconstructs their faith. He explains why apologetics has become the central focus of deconstruction but shares why Christians must shift conversations away from intellectual debates and instead to deeper issues. Plus, why is there so much deconstruction content available now? What would he say to churches that don’t have a healthy category for the deconstructors within their congregation? And is there deconstruction on the right, or is it limited to progressive theology? Listen now! Our new book, Joyful Outsiders, is coming January 21, 2025.

Trading FOMO for JOMO: New Book, Joyful Outsiders, Coming Soon! 43:03

For many Christians, fitting into the current cultural moment just feels…hard! From 40 million people having left the church in the last 25 years to less than half of U.S. adults identifying as Protestants or church attendees, one thing is clear: Christians are outsiders. But is that such a bad thing? Should we fear missing out, or consider it a joy? On today’s episode, Keith and Patrick make a special announcement: They wrote another book! Coming in January 2025, Joyful Outsiders: 6 Ways to Follow Jesus in a Disorienting Culture will explore six unique ways that Christians can joyfully accept their calling to change culture without being changed by culture. Today, they explain the story behind writing this book and why they believe it will be a practical resource for “everyday Christians needing everyday answers to face everyday problems.” They break down the three ways Christians typically respond to a tense culture: combat, conform, or cloister. Then they present a more godly approach: Six unique types of outsiders that lend themselves to a person’s God-given strengths and abilities. Are you a trainer, protestor, builder, ambassador, artist, or advisor? We hope this sneak peek gives you a glimpse of the joy that’s possible when Christians embrace their role as outsiders.

In what might be the biggest comeback in American politics, Donald Trump was elected the 47th president of the United States this week, defeating Vice President Kamala Harris in a decisive victory. On today’s episode, we’re doing our best to break it down from a Christian perspective. First, Keith and Patrick share who they voted for, and whether or not the election results surprised them. They analyze some of the voter statistics, dissecting the demographic shifts in Trump’s favor and the realignment that seems to be happening in the Republican party. They compare the responses from right, left, and independent media sources, and discuss how fearmongering and hysteria seemed to backfire this election cycle. Plus, how should Christians on both sides proceed? What should the church’s rightful role in politics be? Whether you’re excited, disappointed, or just glad it’s all over, we hope this episode encourages you not to hitch your allegiance to a political party, but to God and his Word. Listen now!
