#353 Cultural Chaos: Furries, Propaganda, NAR Scandals and the Woke Right, with Melissa Dougherty

Does your social feed feel like a theological and cultural food fight lately? Let's face it. It’s chaotic out there — and today we talk about basically all of it. I’m joined by my friend Melissa Dougherty for one of our big-picture, no-stone-unturned conversations about what’s blowing up online, what Christians are getting wrong, and how to stay grounded in truth when the noise gets loud.We cover everything from furry fandom (and what parents NEED to know), to conspiracy spirals, propaganda tactics, anti-intellectualism in the church, Bethel controversies, the rise of the woke right, immigration, and why critical thinking is not the enemy of faith. We also end on a high note with Melissa’s beautiful new Easter allegory for kids, The Day That Made the Way.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:SEVEN WEEKS COFFEETaste the Coffee that is Saving Lives.Save up to 25% with promo code 'ALISA' & get up to four FREE gifts this Christmas season: http://www.sevenweekscoffee.com/Use my code: ALISAA'DEL NATURAL COSMETICSElevate your skincare routine with A'del's toxin-free cosmetics. Experience the difference in quality and purity. Go to www.adelnaturalcosmetics.com for more information. Use my code: ALISA ALLIANCE FAMILY SERVICESAlliance Family Services is a Gospel-centered organization that relentlessly advocates forpreborn children, women, and families by providing exceptional reproductive healthcare, Biblical discipleship, and social support.Go to www.alliancefamilyservices.org for more information--------------------------------------------------------------------To Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/musicThere you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/To order “Live Your Truth": www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/To order “The Deconstruction of Christianity”: https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/Potential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.
