Culture & Christianity: The Allen Jackson Podcast

Should Christmas celebrations include Christmas trees and Santa Claus, or focus the solely on the nativity? In this podcast, Pastor Allen Jackson talks about how and why we celebrate Christmas, and what it looks like to bring Christmas joy to the people around us. The holiday season brings a tremendous amount of effort into our daily lives, but it’s also a time of the year when people are more open to hearing about Jesus. Will you be like the wise men, who were willing to follow God in a new direction, or will you be like the unwise, who chase tradition and the ways of the world? This podcast offers a refreshing perspective on Christmas and how God can use your life in a meaningful way during this sacred season.

On October 7th, 2023, innocent lives were targeted and destroyed in ways most could never imagine. In this episode, Pastor Allen Jackson and Lt. Col. Keith Isaacson, chief of security for the Eshkol region on Israel’s Gaza border, reveal the untold horrors and the chilling reality of what took place. Shockingly, some of the worst atrocities were not carried out by the Hamas terrorists, but by their own neighbors—Palestinian civilians. Isaacson shares firsthand accounts of the unimaginable violence that erupted within the communities and the greatest loss the Jews have experienced since the Holocaust. Learn how the same spirit of antisemitism and hatred that fueled these attacks is still at work today and what you can do to stand against it. — It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.

In this episode, Pastor Allen and his father, George Jackson, discuss the moments when God brought healing to their family and intervened in ways they could never have predicted.

Political unrest, moral confusion, and spiritual deception are increasing, leading many to ask if we are approaching the end of the age. In this episode, Pastor Allen Jackson examines the “birth pains” Jesus described and what they reveal about the times we are living in.

As America faces moral and cultural upheaval, the call for courageous faith has never been more clear. In this episode, Pastor Allen Jackson talks with Lt. Gen. (Ret.) William G. “Jerry” Boykin, a decorated Delta Force veteran and outspoken follower of Christ.

In this episode, Pastor Allen Jackson sits down with Alex Marlow, editor-in-chief of Breitbart News; Jason Whitlock, award-winning sports journalist and commentator; Sage Steele, former ESPN anchor; and Eric Metaxas, bestselling author and radio host.

Is Islam truly a religion of peace? What is the real history of Palestine? Are the Jewish people of today the same as those of the Bible?

When Christians tolerate immorality, it does not bring peace from conflict—it leads to cultural collapse. In this episode, Pastor Allen Jackson sits down with former police officer and the host of "The Officer Tatum Show," Brandon Tatum, to reflect on the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk and what it reveals about the spiritual battle unfolding in America. Their conversation moves from the weight of that loss to the broader cultural decay seen in moments like the Super Bowl halftime show, where artists like Bad Bunny headline performances that reflect anything but biblical values. Brandon shares his powerful personal testimony and how his eyes were opened to the spiritual forces shaping the headlines. Together, they wrestle with what it means to stand firm in a time of deep moral confusion and why believers must hold the line with courage and conviction. — It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.

Modern nutrition has strayed far from the wisdom found in God’s Word. In this eye-opening episode, Pastor Allen is joined by Jordan Rubin, New York Times bestselling author of The Maker’s Diet and a leading voice in biblical health. Together, they explore how returning to God’s original design for food is not just a path to better health, but a spiritual act of stewardship and obedience. From fad diets to food pyramids, we've been fed a steady stream of nutritional advice that often leads to sickness and disease.

We often come to faith expecting perks like peace, blessings, and protection. When the blessings slow down, we wonder what we did wrong. We treat our relationship with Jesus like a contract: “I’ll pray, give, obey, so that you’ll give me health, salvation, and success.” But what if friendship with Jesus is less about what we collect and more about what we offer? In this episode, Pastor Allen explores the incredible privilege of being Jesus' friend and how we can invest in a deeper relationship with our Savior.

Why does God allow suffering? Is it possible that the pain in your body or the anxiety in your mind is rooted in something spiritual? In this episode, clinical psychologist Dr. Henry Cloud, best-selling author of the Boundaries books, joins Pastor Allen Jackson to wrestle with the hard truth that not every prayer is answered the way we hope—and not every struggle has a clear cause or a simple solution. Together, they challenge the common tendency to compartmentalize our lives into spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental categories. Whether we struggle with anxiety, chronic illness, relational wounds, or deep grief, the lines between the spiritual and physical are far more intertwined than we often realize. This conversation invites us to consider a more integrated, biblical perspective on health and a deeper trust in God’s purpose for our lives.

Jesus warned that before His return, there would be wars and rumors of wars, famines, earthquakes, and widespread deception. He called these events "the beginning of birth pains." Pastor Allen asks the piercing question: Are we living in those very days now?

He highlights unlikely reconciliation efforts between bitter rivals such as Azerbaijan and Armenia, India and Pakistan, Egypt and Ethiopia, and more.

Is anti-Zionism simply antisemitism in disguise? In this episode, Pastor Allen and Israeli Pastor Samuel Smadja explore how anti-Zionism (often viewed as political or cultural) is deeply spiritual, and it mirrors something seen throughout history: a supernatural hatred for the Jewish people. The language may have changed, but the spirit behind it has not. The Jewish people are living evidence that God is who He says He is, and His Word is true. Scattered, persecuted, and regathered—Israel's survival is more than historical. It’s prophetic. The same spirit that hates the Jews also hates the Church, and we need to learn to recognize that spirit so we're prepared for what's ahead. — "Simple Man" by Charlie Daniels - UMPG License #262673 It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.

In this episode, Pastor Allen confronts the silence surrounding one of the most chilling scandals of our time. The Epstein case wasn’t just about one man—it was a doorway into a network of wealth, power, and corruption that reaches into the highest levels of government, media, and global influence. He explores unsettling questions such as: Is there a connection between Epstein's client list and the State of Israel? What is Israel’s true significance—not just politically, but biblically, prophetically, and culturally? Why does this one nation remain at the center of so many global conflicts, conspiracies, and spiritual battles?

What happens when you begin to read the Bible every day? Pastor Allen sat down with his good friend, Dave Embry, to discuss how daily Bible reading significantly altered his life. While it may seem like reading about the historic wars, battles, and personal conflicts in Scripture has no significance to how we live out our faith today, Embry explains how it increases your understanding of God and His purposes for you. “Jesus says, 'If my words abide in you, then you are my true disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.' What is the opposite of free? Bondage,” Embry explained. “Do we want to be in bondage? That gives me the incentive to want to be in the Word of God. How else can I get His words to abide in me if I'm not in His Word?" Is it possible to know God intimately if we do not know His Word? Does it matter if we read the Bible daily or sporadically? Why is reading the Word of God so important? In this podcast, you’ll discover the answers to these questions and how God brought healing, hope, and transformation to Dave Embry's life through one simple, daily practice: Bible reading.

Brad Arnold, the lead singer of the rock band 3 Doors Down, went from battling alcoholism to finding hope through rehab, prayer, and the guidance of legendary Country Musician Charlie Daniels. Brad opens up about how his faith began to play a central role in his life, especially during his concerts, where he chooses to boldly proclaim the message of Jesus' love to his audience. "I've always tried to make songs that help people through situations—to help them acknowledge that 'Jesus loves me.' That's the most powerful thing in the world, to know that Jesus loves you. I know that I have a very short window before people start shutting down, and people aren't at a rock show to be preached at, but I want to share that with them." Brad's story is one of grace, redemption, and hope, showing that no matter where you’ve been or what you’ve gone through, there’s always a chance to find joy and healing. __ It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.

Beginning a new year is the perfect time to reflect on how we can lead our lives with intentional faith. "I think we oftentimes imagine faith as a passive thing, and I don't accept that definition. I think faith has to be lived out. It has to be demonstrated to be real," Pastor Allen stated. In this podcast, Pastor Allen gives us 10 practical ways we can intentionally live out our faith in our homes, communities, workplaces, and beyond. Faith is not about worshiping with the right music, reading the right Bible version, or memorizing the right verses. It’s about making daily decisions that honor God and being obedient to His Word. Whether we're experiencing times of joy or struggle, cultivating an intentional faith will shape our behaviors, habits, and choices in every situation.
