Hey folks, my name is Johnny Artivannis and this is Dialin. I want to thank those of you who continue to support Dialin Ministries and share these resources with your friends and family and church community. And I also want to particularly thank those of you who have already received my new book, Consider the Lilies Finding Perfect Peace in the Character of God. You know, for me it's been really encouraging to see those of you who have already been blessed

by the resource and obviously everything good within my book owes its origin to what is within

God's precious word.

And I have a favor to ask if you could help me.

It really does help with the visibility of the book and more people finding out about it if

one of which is entitled, We Will Not Be Silenced.

And one of the things that Dr. Lutzer is known for is his ability to biblically and intelligently look at the world in which we live

through a biblical worldview. Sometimes we may turn on the news and we see our culture is collapsing

around us. That didn't happen overnight. And in this episode, I sit down with him and I begin to just

ask him simply, how did we get here when you see our country and decay and when you see growing hostility towards the biblical Jesus Christ,

what are the philosophies and ideologies that have gotten us to where we are today?

Now, to be fair, some of the things he may say or the terms he uses or the people he references may be new or it

might feel like a lot of information but i would encourage you to dial in here no pun intended

so that you can begin to understand the various ideologies that have contributed to the world in
