6 Ways Christians Can Change Culture
Christ against culture. Christ for culture. Christ transforming culture. Which approach is correct? Shouldn’t Christians have a one-size-fits-all, agreed upon set of principles for engaging with culture? The truth is that the Bible doesn’t give us one right answer. More like…six! On today’s episode, Keith and Patrick are previewing the six types of culture changers they lay out in their new book, Joyful Outsiders. They introduce each type: the trainer, the protester, the advisor, the artist, the ambassador, and the builder. The two share key insights for each, as well as biblical examples and temptations, or weak spots.

You Can’t Say That in Church! with Brenna Blain
Abuse. Molestation. Same-sex attraction. Mental health crises. What if our hardest questions, secret struggles, and biggest doubts aren’t meant to stay secrets but can lead us closer to God’s heart? Brenna Blain is a contemporary theologian and the author of “Can I Say That?” She joins Patrick on the pod today to share her own journey of wrestling with God at the intersection of faith and suffering. Providing an open look into her past, she invites listeners to be vulnerable themselves, citing how God has consistently met her in the tension of her most complex questions and toughest circumstances. She discusses the profound power of honesty and vulnerability and how not all stories conclude with a clean-cut “Amazing Grace” ending. We hope this episode leaves you feeling deeply challenged and connected to a God who isn’t afraid of your questions.

Why Trump Was Reelected: A Post-Election Postmortem
As the dust begins to settle one month after the 2024 election, many have started to analyze what Donald Trump’s decisive victory says about the current state of the country. Today, Patrick and Keith are teaming up to break down a few of their favorite takes on it all, namely a piece from Ross Douthat of The New York Times. They discuss the resurgence of the anti-establishment movement, the death of mainstream media and the rise of “new media” sources, and the state of Liberalism in America. They break down what post-liberalism looks like on the left and the right and explain how radical outsiders are no longer outliers in their parties but prominent voices in each. They discuss how drastically the media landscape is changing and explain why 2024 is already being referred to as “The Podcast Election.” Plus, why does this hinge point in our culture matter for Christians?
