We are live now on the Conversations That Matter podcast. I'm your host, John Harris. I hope you are all having a wonderful day. I have been traveling for over a week, which is one of the reasons I haven't been able to do as many podcasts. But here I am on a Saturday. I know many of you are out doing things and you'll probably listen to this next week. But I can already see people

coming into the stream. If you have any questions or comments or cries of outrage, you can feel

free to share those on Facebook, YouTube, or X, where I will see the comment as we stream.

There's a lot we can talk about today, and this episode has the potential to be either

very long or about an hour. And I'm going to try to keep it towards that hour, if I can.

We'll see how far we get, because there's a lot that we could talk about. I want to talk about,

obviously, post-election stuff, and there's so many different

directions we can go. I'm going to let some of the comments that come in actually help me decide

which direction would be prudent to go in. But I do have some things I want to play for you that

will steer this. So I have a few reactions to the election that I want to talk to you about,

one that people online have been talking about regarding Russell Moore, Curtis Chang,

and I think it's David French talking about the election and their reaction to it.

They recorded it the day after.

So in fact, I think one of the patrons at patreon.com forward slash worldview conversation,

if you want to be a supporter of this podcast, one of the patrons had asked me if there was

a reaction to from Russell Moore specifically to the election.

I said, I don't think there is actually.

I haven't seen anything on X or social media. No one sent anything to me. Well, this is, I guess,

the reaction is this particular podcast that was recorded. So, and then we're going to talk a little

bit about some Southern Baptist reactions to this. I'm finding something very interesting in the Southern Baptist camp that you can take as encouraging

or you can be cynical about and think that this is more of a self-preservation strategy.

I would love to be optimistic about this.
