Summary

The lead vocalist, bassist, and songwriter for a top Christian rock band is sounding the alarm about the "woke" ideology of critical race theory and transgender identity, insisting that Christians cannot afford to sit on the sidelines as this competing worldview takes over the culture. Skillet's John Cooper will release a new book this month on the topic entitled "Wimpy, Weak, and Woke." "The main premise of my entire book is that there is a revolution against America, to just tear America down," Cooper told The Daily Signal at the National Religious Broadcasters Convention. "Some of the Christian people just say, 'Well, you do have to admit there is systemic racism,' and I say to them, 'You don't understand. If you're saying we are structurally racist, we have to tear down the foundations.'" Enjoy the show! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.
