Summary

Now that President Trump is in the White House, change is coming at a rapid magnitude and speed as his policies upend DEI initiatives, transgenderism, the border crisis, and more. Instead of sitting back and watching the news unfold—or trusting in a politician to solve our problems—it's time for the Church to address the challenges we face in our nation with God's truth. In this episode, Pastor Allen discusses what we can learn from President Trump's first few weeks in office and calls the Church to rise to their assignment of being salt and light in our generation.

It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture. It may feel like an impossible assignment, but there’s much we can do. Join Pastor Allen Jackson as he discusses today’s issues from a biblical perspective.

Find thought-provoking insight from Pastor Allen and his guests, equipping you to lead with your faith in your home, your school, your community, and wherever God takes you.

0:00.0	Well, welcome back to culture and Christianity.
0:07.0	The goal of these podcasts really is to help us understand how to take our faith beyond the walls of the church, beyond just the safety of a Sunday school class or a small group or like-minded individuals,
0:21.6	how do we actually impact our culture with our Christianity?

0:29.6	You know, that's not easy.
0:32.6	I mean, for me, I have to admit, that's not easy.
0:34.6	I've been a Christ follower for a while and a professional Christian for more than a day.
0:40.1	And it takes some real attentiveness and thoughtfulness and prayerfulness to interpret what we see and hear in our culture from a biblical worldview.
0:50.2	So we hope this podcast is helping you with that.
0:52.5	And some of the guests that we have are really helping you understand how to do that with your faith and faith and to face the challenges that come with life.
1:01.6	Life is not neat or clean or orderly.
1:03.6	It's messed up most of the time.
1:04.9	And I've got to live our faith out in the midst of that mess.
1:08.2	And I don't think until we see the Lord or he returns that that's going to change
1:12.2	a great deal. So we want to try to add some momentum of that. Today, no guest. You're stuck with me.
1:19.8	But I've been looking forward to this. I just wanted to have a conversation with you a bit about
1:25.6	what we see going on.
1:28.0	I introduce this little paradigm way back in COVID.
1:30.0	It seems like a long time ago now, but encouraging everybody to watch, to listen, to think,
