Christian Nationalism, Culture War, and Courage with Scott Bottoms

from The Heidi St. John Podcast · host Heidi St. John

Pastor and Colorado State Rep Scott Bottoms is running for Governor of Colorado, and he’s making the case for why Christians can’t sit out the political arena anymore. We talk about the pressure on pastors to stay silent, the “Christian nationalism” debate, and why policy is shaping the future of our kids in real time—from grooming and parental rights to trafficking and corruption. If you’ve been on the fence, this episode is a wake-up call: get off the bench and engage. Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.
