Summary
Dr. Owen Strachan and Ryan Helfenbein, the Executive Director of the Standing for Freedom Center, discuss the controversy surrounding the phrase 'Christ is King' and its association with anti-Semitism. They emphasize the importance of understanding the true meaning of Christ's kingship and how Christians should interact with those who may misuse or misrepresent this concept. They also highlight the significance of supporting the nation-state of Israel and opposing anti-Semitism.

| 0:00.0 | Is Christ King? And if Christ is King, what does that mean? And how do Christians who, I would say, rightly confess the kingship of Jesus, interact with people from the conservative |
| 0:22.0 | world or the anarcho-fascist world or any other world who may misunderstand what that means, |

| 0:34.0 | today. Welcome to Grace and Truth. My name is Owen Strand, and I will be your host. Please |
| 0:37.7 | subscribe to this podcast on all platforms. I am joined today by my dear friend, long-term friend, |
| 0:43.3 | Ryan Hellfenbine. He is the executive director of the Standing for Freedom Center at Liberty University. |
| 0:48.2 | He's also VP of Communications there. He's a serious dude. He's a serious man. He's a good man. He's got a real zest about him, but he loves the truth. He's got a very sharp mind. Ryan, welcome to Grace and Truth today. |

| 1:53.3 | periodical stories, that kind of thing, all of that. And then also the Standing for Freedom |
| 1:58.1 | Center, which is our public policy advocacy sort of think tank on |
