Summary

After years of wrestling with identity, purpose, and personal trials, it became clear that God was writing a narrative for George Jackson (Pastor Allen's father) far beyond human understanding. While he was pursuing a career as a veterinarian, God’s voice grew louder, directing their family toward the church, people, and service. Time and time again, it was God who made a way—whether through miraculous healing, financial breakthrough, or the strength to endure personal loss and disappointment. This podcast contains not just a story—but an example of God's faithfulness and His power to transform an ordinary life into something extraordinary.

Welcome to culture and Christianity. You know the goal by now. How do we take our faith outside of a worship service and a church building and actually give expression to that in the midst of our culture? If you haven't noticed, there is a great need for that. The biblical worldview seems to be evaporating from the fabric that has held us together as a people.

0:22.9

If that process continues, we'll lose our freedom. We're already losing freedom of speech. We're

0:28.7

losing what we need in our educational systems. We've got to bring that biblical worldview back. Thus,

0:34.2

this podcast, Father's Day is just around the corner, and I had the privilege for this one of sitting down

0:40.3

with my dad.

0:41.3

My mom went to heaven last summer, so every time I get to have a visit with my dad, it seems

0:46.3

more precious to me than it ever has, and he was willing to let me ask him questions

0:52.3

about his journey.

0:53.3

I think you'll find it helpful, hopefully,

0:57.0

encouraging. But I think in the context of where we're living, it's a critical component.

1:03.0

One of the greatest needs right now I think we face is for godly men, godly husbands, and godly fathers.

1:10.0

And the voices coming at us make that extraordinarily confusing.

1:15.5

You know, the Tony Awards just recently taken place, and they celebrated someone who

1:20.4

received their award in drag, and there's a thunderous ovation.

1:26.1

It's confusing.

1:27.3

Riley Gaines, as we're doing this, is in the news, in the debate with an Olympic gymnast

1:33.5

over the appropriateness of Riley's attitudes towards transgender sports.

1:39.1

I mean, we have lost our balance.

1:40.7

It's like we are morally, we are dizzy and we are staggering. And it's because we have

1:47.6

taken our biblical worldview and put it away. You know, I've quoted it before, but Solzhenitsyn

1:53.6

several years ago now in a very public lecture series made the statement that the reason Russia came upon all of the hard time

and the millions of deaths that came as a result of communism and Lenin and Stalin, and those
