Preaching in a Post Truth World with Mike Glenn

Summary: In this episode, Mike Glenn and Dr. Michael Easley explore the challenges and opportunities facing pastors and believers today. They begin by addressing the deep regrets many carry—especially the regret of not living the life they truly desire—and how salvation is not just about eternity but aligning with Christ’s will to live fully now. Mike shares a powerful distinction between wishing and wanting, urging intentional action in marriage, ministry, and personal growth.  They discuss the pressure on young pastors to chase bigger platforms instead of faithfully serving their current communities, encouraging contentment and focus on growth where God places you. The conversation highlights the importance of accountability, not as judgment but as loving reminders of who God created us to be. They also emphasize the need for clear, accessible communication in preaching, bridging deep theology with everyday language. Finally, Dr. Easley challenges the misconception that following Jesus means weakness, pointing to Christ’s fierce strength in protecting His people and confronting evil. This engaging dialogue offers wisdom and encouragement for pastors and Christians seeking to grow in faith, courage, and purpose in a complex world. Takeaways: Wanting means taking intentional steps; wishing alone won’t bring change. Contentment grows by serving faithfully where God places you, not chasing bigger stages. Accountability is an act of love, calling us back to our true identity in Christ. Preaching must balance theological depth with clear, relatable communication. Jesus is strength, confronting evil and defending His people with power Links Mentioned: Preaching in a Post Truth World by Mike Glenn Watch the highlights and full version of this interview on our Youtube channel.
