The Christian Outlook - September 21, 2024

Charlie Kirk and Pastor Allen Jackson, author of Jesus, His Followers & Politics: This Is Our Time, discuss the reluctance of pastors to engage in cultural and political issues, contrasting it with past church involvement in public discourse. Jackson argues that churches must confront societal challenges with a biblical worldview.

Bill Bunkley and Christian apologist, Alex McFarland, discuss concerns over Colorado’s gender policies and the lack of parental involvement in schools, citing recent controversies in Jefferson County Public Schools. McFarland criticizes the push for progressive agendas in public institutions, warning that abandoning traditional values and parental rights leads to societal decline.

Eric Metaxas and Katy Faust, author of Pro-Child Politics: Why Every Cultural, Economic, and National Issue Is a Matter of Justice for Children, discuss why all policy decisions should prioritize children's rights, needs, and well-being. Faust argues that on issues like marriage, debt, and identity, children are being sacrificed for adult desires and calls for a societal shift to protect children's rights and well-being.
