What if I told you that most modern Christians have completely missed one of God’s most foundational purposes for mankind? Not just missed it—forgotten it, ignored it, and in many cases, even denied it.

We’re not talking about something minor here. We’re talking about why God created the world in the first place, what He expects humanity to do with it, and—crucially—how He intends for us to do it.

Here’s the claim: God created nations—distinct peoples in distinct lands—for the express purpose of stewarding the earth. Nations are not an accident of history or a necessary evil in a fallen world. They are the fundamental unit of dominion. And yet, most churches today act as if nations are at best irrelevant—and at worst, idolatrous.

“Creation care”? That’s the buzzword today. But much of what goes under that banner is just baptized globalism and soft environmentalism. It’s stewardship without dominion. Guilt without glory. Conservation without cultivation. It replaces national duty with personal shame and trades biblical fruitfulness for bureaucratic minimalism.

Meanwhile, we live in an age when our greatest national achievements no longer bring glory to God, but glory to man. The Mayflower Compact was a covenant for Christ. The moon landing was a monument to mankind. Somewhere along the way, we stopped building towers for God and started building Babels for ourselves.

In this episode, we walk through a chapter from Michael’s new book—a deep dive into the Noahic Covenant, the dominion mandate, and the rise of nations—and then we bring it forward. What does this mean for us today? Why does it matter that God gave land to nations? And how should faithful Christians think about patriotism, dominion, and national identity in an age of globalist fog?
