Just Common Sense | 176 | Fret Not

Should Christians avoid the news because it makes them anxious—or pay closer attention because truth matters?In this episode of Just Common Sense, Dr. Johnny Hunter begins with Proverbs 24 and its command not to “fret because of evildoers.” But biblical confidence, he argues, isn't an excuse for disengagement.From violent crime and new questions surrounding COVID-era decisions to immigration fraud, election procedures, and the growing influence of democratic socialism, Dr. Hunter examines troubling headlines through a biblical worldview. Along the way, he makes an equally challenging point for Christians: God doesn't call us to rejoice when our enemies fall, either.The Christian response to evil is neither fear nor celebration. It's confidence in God, discernment about what's happening, and the courage to act when action is required.If this helped you:Subscribe and share with a friend who needs hope today.To connect and learn more, visit learninc.orgListen to Just Common Sense on your favorite podcast app.
