Summary

Should America Be a “Christian Nation” Again? In this episode of LIVE FREE, Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, and Paul Cunningham dig into Acts 21 to unpack how God still speaks today and what it really means to obey even when the path ahead is costly. Learn the difference between Old and New Testament prophecy, how to test prophetic words against Scripture, and why spiritual discernment matters more than ever. They also continue the conversation on Christian nationalism and how believers can stand firm in truth without losing sight of grace. If you're wrestling with how faith fits into culture today, this one's for you. 👍 Like, Comment, & Subscribe for more life-changing podcasts! 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss an update! 📝 SHOW NOTES Subscribe now to receive the show notes directly in your inbox with each new episode.
