Should Christians Speak up about Politics? with Natasha Crain

Natasha Crain joins the podcast to discuss her new book, "When Culture Hates You: Persevering for the Common Good as Christians in a Hostile Public Square." In this episode, we discuss the radical shift in culture since 2020 and how many Christians are now divided on how to engage with culture and politics. We cover topics such as social justice narratives, Christian nationalism, the biblical principles surrounding government, and moral issues such as abortion and gender ideology. Natasha also gives the church some fantastic advice on how to engage these difficult topics in an increasingly hostile public square.
