A Call to Cultivate: Working Towards a Biblical Vision for Engaging Culture | Owen Strachan

Episode Summary:The culture may feel like it's unraveling, but what if God's call isn't to panic, retreat, or attack, but to cultivate? In this thought-provoking conversation, theologian Owen Strachan joins us to discuss his new book, Call to Cultivate, and why Jeremiah 29 provides a compelling biblical blueprint for faithful Christian cultural engagement.Together, we explore how followers of Christ can engage today's culture without giving in to fear, political idolatry, or end-times obsession. Owen challenges believers to plant gardens, build strong families, disciple their communities, and pursue the long-term work of cultivating culture rather than simply reacting to it. Along the way, we also have several honest, iron-sharpening-iron moments of disagreement that push the conversation deeper and challenge us all to think more carefully.If you've felt anxious about the direction of our culture or wondered how Christians should respond to today's challenges, this conversation offers a biblical vision rooted in hope, faithfulness, and the lordship of Christ.If this episode encouraged you, be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs hope and a biblical vision for engaging today's world.Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)?
