Balancing Faith and Reason: Embracing the Mystical

Today, we sit down with author Rod Dreher to discuss his new book, "Living in Wonder: Finding Mystery and Meaning in a Secular Age," and how Christians ought to respond to miraculous things in the modern day. We also talk about how and why young people are being drawn into the occult at an alarming rate and what this could mean for future evangelism. And we get Rod's take on JD Vance's stance on abortion and the upcoming election and the spiritual battles that come with it.
