10 Words to Heal Our Broken World: Restoring the Meaning of Our Most Important Words — Scott Allen
If you want to change culture, you begin by changing language. The enemies of the gospel know this all too well. They’ve been cunningly at work redefining our most fundamental words, embedding them in our institutions and school curriculum, all to transform society to reflect their harmful, anti-Christian beliefs. As followers of Jesus Christ, how should we respond? By clearly knowing and defending the true biblical definitions of at least ten critical words: truth, human, sex, marriage, freedom, justice, authority, faith, beauty, and love. If we long to see a revival in the church and a reformation of culture, we must recover the true definition of these ten foundational words. Listen in as Dr. Jeff and Scott Allen, author of 10 Words to Heal Our Broken World: Restoring the Meaning of Our Most Important Words, discuss these fundamental words that are being challenged.

Understanding Gender, Intersex, & Sexuality — Alycia Wood
God has a unique design for men and women to flourish as embodied and sexual beings. To live within this design, to flow with the grain of reality, leads to a thriving life both individually and socially. But what happens when people and cultures start to tear down this design in favor of a subjective and relative view of identity? What does it look like when groups start to do what is right in their own eyes as opposed to the path the loving God has given us? Alycia Wood from Apologetics Inc. chats with Dr. Jeff about these important topics and how vital they are in today’s culture and for Generation Z.

Standing for Life in a Culture of Death — Scott Klusendorf (Rebroadcast)
What does it mean for Christ-followers to truly be pro-life? Is it merely about voting the right way or financially supporting our favorite candidate? Perhaps there is more to embodying the life-giving message of Jesus than meets the eyes. Scott Klusendoft and Dr. Jeff discuss this timely topic and more. Pro-life Christians, take heart: the pro-life message can compete in the marketplace of ideas if Christians properly understand and articulate that message. Too many Christians do not understand the essential truths of the pro-life position, making it difficult for them to articulate a biblical worldview on issues like abortion, cloning, and embryo research. Listen to this crucial conversation as you seek to live out your faith compellingly. For more resources from Summit Ministries, visit our Resource Library at www.Summit.org/Resources.
