Famed Anti-Christian Dawkins Now Celebrating Christian Culture

Send us a textRecently, the famed atheist intellectual Richard Dawkins showed his cards when he called himself a cultural Christian. It’s fascinating to see someone as anti-Christian as Dawkins appreciating the culture that was built on Christian values. But can the culture he enjoys in the West actually be sustained within a secular and atheistic worldview? Further, for Christians who see the value of biblical principles and want to have an influence in society, will we rightly be considered, “Christian Nationalists?”View the transcript, leave comments, and check out recommended resources on the Episode Landing Page!Learn more about DNA’s free online Kingdomizer Training Program: Truth and Transformation.Disciple Nations Alliance Website

The Consequences of Killing God with John Stonestreet

Send us a textThe foundation of our society has shifted beneath our feet. Where there was once a firm base rooted in the Bible, we now find our culture in a moral freefall. Special guest John Stonestreet from the Colson Center reveals how subtle shifts have radically eroded people’s ability to find truth, identity, justice, and meaning. Believers have a responsibility to shape society in such a way that people know truth and can find meaning and justice. Today, prominent voices like Richard Dawkins are waking up to recognize the role of Christianity in creating a society that supports human dignity and freedom. It’s time that believers learn the same and take action.View the transcript, leave comments, and check out recommended resources on the Episode Landing Page!Learn more about DNA’s free online Kingdomizer Training Program: Truth and Transformation.Disciple Nations Alliance Website

Understanding the Times and Seasons by Darrow Miller

Send us a textThe men of Issachar are described in the Bible as having an understanding of their times and knowledge about what to do (1 Chronicles 12:32). This is no time to sit passively, expecting the Lord to accomplish His work apart from His people. Jesus is not only the Lamb of God; He is the Lion of Judah, the Victor, and the Dragon Slayer. We must not fear going into dark and hard places as His representatives. Ungodly cultures are breeding death and destruction, but we have a culture of life to share. Our times have shifted dramatically, and this important teaching from DNA’s co-founder, Darrow Miller, will help you think critically so that you can respond to the calling He has for you in these times.View the transcript, leave comments, and check out recommended resources on the Episode Landing Page!Disciple Nations Alliance Website

A Framework for a Life that Works with Katherine Gallagher

Send us a textMany Christians uncritically blend secular thinking with a Christian worldview. They syncretize the dominant worldview of their friends, family, and community with bits and pieces of a biblical worldview. Today's guest shares that this fragmented thinking creates real challenges, because only one worldview actually works. There's only one God, and He alone sets the standard for right and wrong, good and evil, right? Assuming you answered yes, then wouldn't the worldview God offers be the only worldview that comports with His world? Join us as we seek to continually align our daily thoughts and actions with the truth of Scripture. Don't miss this enlightening discussion with our good friend Katherine Gallager from GoStrategic, author of Worldview: A Handbook for Biblical Thinking and Lifestyle. This episode is not just another discussion; it's a call to understand and act upon the profound consequences of our beliefs.View the transcript, leave comments, and check out recommended resources on the Episode Landing Page!Disciple Nations Alliance Website

Revival+Reformation=Discipled Nations with Teo Hayashi

Send us a textIt seems there are more churches and Christians globally than ever before in history. Yet, society and culture seem to be crumbling around us. Where are these believers? Today's guest, Brazilian Pastor Teofilo Hayashi, argues that this lack of Christian impact is because we've seen souls stirred and saved, but not lives reformed. The Great Commission should affect the whole of societies and nations. How do we live this out? How do we move from revival to reformation? Practically, we need to start with the basics, bringing biblical principles back into the three most influential systems in a society: family, education, and local churches. This message is challenging, inspiring, and urgent. Join us as we get practical with Pastor Teo, exploring how each of us can start discipling the nations!View the transcript, leave comments, and check out recommended resources on the Episode Landing Page!Disciple Nations Alliance Website

Learning to Critique & Celebrate Foreign Cultures with George Oliveira

Send us a textWhen we cross cultural borders to serve others, it is essential for us to learn when to celebrate cultural diversity and when to critique it. This can be tricky! We may instinctively seek to align everything to our cultural norms–but doing so can dangerously lead to the erasure of beautifully unique and diverse elements of foreign culture that bring glory to God. At the same time, there are things within every culture that should be rightly critiqued. Long-time DNA friend, Pastor George Oliveira shares lessons learned as a cross-cultural pastor. He emphasizes the importance of transcending cultural divides with Christian love. He gives us a vision to authentically connect with diverse communities while celebrating our shared humanity under the teachings of Jesus.View the transcript, leave comments, and check out recommended resources on the Episode Landing Page!Disciple Nations Alliance Website
