S7E35 - Living Your Faith Out Loud: Consecration and Courage in the Face of Culture. With Ken Fish, Casey Harper & Joel Taylor

What does it take to live your faith out loud in a culture that resists it? Ken Fish and Joel Taylor sit down with Casey Harper—D.C. journalist, host of The Outstanding Podcast, managing editor for broadcast at The Washington Stand, and a speaker at the upcoming Luminosity conference (Nashville, Oct 1–3, 2026). Register: https://kingdomluminosity.org/From his vantage point between the White House and the Capitol, Casey shares his journey from small-town East Texas to the front lines of faith and public life. Together the three explore a recovered theology of persecution "for righteousness' sake," why a healthy faith must be able to stand even when the church is weak, the difference between partisanship and faithful engagement in the public square, and how personal consecration builds the fortitude to do the right thing under pressure. It all ties back to the conference theme—consecration and holiness—and Casey's striking word from Joel 3: "consecrate for war," a call to spiritual preparation, not violence.In this conversation:Casey's journey from East Texas to faith and public life in D.C.What makes living your faith "out loud" so challenging todayRecovering a theology of being "persecuted for righteousness' sake"Why a mature faith can stand alone—without abandoning communityPartisanship vs. politics in the public squareHow consecration builds inner fortitude"Consecrate for war" (Joel 3)—preparation for the days aheadThe example of Perpetua and the great cloud of witnessesHope for a generation looking for something realRegister for Luminosity📅 October 1–3, 2026 | Nashville Area (Bethel World Outreach Church)❤️‍🩹 Healing Service: September 30 at Franklin Vineyard🎟️ Register today: https://kingdomluminosity.org/Connect with Orbis Ministries🙏 Prayer: https://orbisprayer.org/❤️ Give: https://subsplash.com/orbisministries/giveGrow with Orbis📖 Read: On the Road with the Holy Spirit by Ken Fish🎓 Learn: Enroll in Orbis School of Ministry or contact Registrar Jo McKay at [email protected]💪 Train: Apply to serve on an upcoming overseas ministry trip.🤝 Connect: Join Ken's private Facebook discussion group, God Is Not a Theory.
