Culture & Christianity: The Allen Jackson Podcast

Have we become so focused on what's wrong with America that we've forgotten what's right? As visitors from around the world celebrate the freedoms, opportunities, and abundance they find here, Pastor Allen Jackson encourages Christians to see our nation through a different lens. As America approaches its 250th anniversary, he reflects on the blessings we often overlook, the importance of cultivating gratitude, and several recent policy victories that align with a biblical worldview—from securing the border and protecting children to defending religious freedom and the sanctity of life. This episode is a call to thank God for His faithfulness, appreciate the courage of leaders willing to stand for biblical values, and use our own voices to help preserve the freedoms and principles that have made America such a remarkable nation.

What if your family’s greatest hardships could become part of God’s redemption story? In this special Father’s Day episode of Culture & Christianity, Pastor Allen Jackson sits down with his father, Dr. George Jackson, to reflect on the generations of faith, loss, sacrifice, and perseverance that shaped their family. No family story is perfect, but God’s faithfulness is greater than our brokenness. This conversation offers encouragement to honor those who have influenced your life and to trust that God can bring redemption through every generation.

What if the biggest thing standing between you and God’s plan is your own idea of how life should go? In this episode of Culture & Christianity, Allen Jackson shares a personal story about surrendering his own ambitions and learning to ask, “Lord, what would You have me do?” We explore the danger of asking God to bless our plans instead of trusting Him to lead us, and the freedom that comes when we fully surrender to His will. God’s purpose for your life may look different than you imagined—but His story is always greater.

What if the greatest battle facing the next generation is the battle for their imaginations? In this episode of Culture & Christianity, Pastor Allen Jackson sits down with storytellers Eric Newman and Candace Lee to discuss their new book, George Goodwin, Dragon Slayer, and why courage, imagination, and identity matter now more than ever. Together, they unpack the cultural defeatism affecting young people, the dangers of “safe spaces” without resilience, and why Christians must raise "dragon slayers" instead of passive spectators. This conversation is a powerful reminder that faith was never meant to shrink back in fear—it was meant to overcome.

A cultural and spiritual shift has taken place within the U.S. military over the last two decades. From the removal of faith-based resiliency programs to rising struggles with mental health, recruitment, and retention, former Force Recon Marine and a Department of Defense Contractor, Chad Robichaux, shares firsthand insight from inside the military community. Pastor Allen and Robichaux discuss a growing awareness within the armed forces that something essential has been missing—and a renewed pursuit of resilience that goes deeper than physical training and strength alone. What is taking place will directly impact the readiness, health, and stability of our soldiers, as well as the future of our nation.

If you’ve been wondering how Christians should respond in a culture filled with deception, this conversation is for you.

For years, Christians were told to keep their faith out of politics—but what if silence is exactly what’s costing us the culture?

What if one prayer could change the course of an entire family for generations? In this reflective episode, Pastor Allen Jackson shares the extraordinary story of his mother’s cancer diagnosis, the miracle that followed, and how one encounter with God transformed his family forever.

This conversation is a reminder that God still heals, still restores, and still changes lives today.

What if everything you’ve been told about America’s foundation is missing the most important piece? In this conversation, Pastor Allen Jackson sits down with David Barton and Tim Barton, founders of WallBuilders, to uncover the biblical principles that shaped our nation from the very beginning.

This episode challenges Christians to reengage—not just in the church, but in every sphere of influence, including government and education. If we want a different future, it may start by rediscovering the truth we’ve forgotten.

You’ve been given more authority than you realize—but most of us are using it far too small. In this episode, Pastor Allen Jackson challenges the way we think about spiritual authority, prayer, and influence, and why it was never meant to stop at personal comfort or convenience. He draws a sharp contrast between how power is often used in public life and how believers are called to use the authority of the Kingdom. This is a call to lift our eyes beyond ourselves and engage in what God is doing in the world. If faith is meant to make an impact, then the real question is: What are you doing with the authority you’ve been given?

What does it actually take to survive five missions in space—and what is the U.S. doing to win the new space race? Former NASA Space Shuttle Commander Robert “Hoot” Gibson shares firsthand insight from decades in the cockpit, including the risks, breakthroughs, and behind-the-scenes reality of America’s journey to the moon and beyond. He explains how space exploration has shaped modern life on Earth and why the next era of missions is so critical.

What happens when you die? In this episode of Culture and Christianity, Gabe Poirot shares the moment he died, encountered Jesus, and returned after 18 days in a coma. His story challenges the difference between knowing about Jesus and truly knowing Him—and what that means for how we live today. This conversation will stretch your understanding of eternity, deepen your love for Jesus, and invite you to a life of surrender to God and His ways.

This Holy Week, the question isn’t just what you believe—it’s where you stand. As we reflect on Easter, we’re reminded that faith was never meant to stay inside church walls or remain a private conviction. In this episode, Pastor Allen Jackson challenges us to choose belief over skepticism, step out of neutrality, and live our faith boldly in the world around us. God is moving—will you join Him?

What happens when faith is kept private in a world that’s anything but neutral?

The insights he shares in this episode can be found in his book Lead with Faith, offering practical encouragement to help you use your influence for God’s purposes.

We often come to faith expecting perks like peace, blessings, and protection. When the blessings slow down, we wonder what we did wrong. We treat our relationship with Jesus like a contract: “I’ll pray, give, obey, so that you’ll give me health, salvation, and success.” But what if friendship with Jesus is less about what we collect and more about what we offer? In this episode, Pastor Allen explores the incredible privilege of being Jesus' friend and how we can invest in a deeper relationship with our Savior.More Information:My Friend Jesus: https://store.allenjackson.com/category/offers/BK250907?source=25WEBI000 —It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.

Why does God allow suffering? Is it possible that the pain in your body or the anxiety in your mind is rooted in something spiritual? In this episode, clinical psychologist Dr. Henry Cloud, best-selling author of the Boundaries books, joins Pastor Allen Jackson to wrestle with the hard truth that not every prayer is answered the way we hope—and not every struggle has a clear cause or a simple solution. Together, they challenge the common tendency to compartmentalize our lives into spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental categories. Whether we struggle with anxiety, chronic illness, relational wounds, or deep grief, the lines between the spiritual and physical are far more intertwined than we often realize. This conversation invites us to consider a more integrated, biblical perspective on health and a deeper trust in God’s purpose for our lives.More Information:Why I Believe: A Psychologist's Thoughts on Suffering, Miracles, Science, and Faith: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/dr-henry-cloud/why-i-believe/9781546003410/?lens=worthy Boundaries: https://www.drcloud.com/books/boundaries Dr. Henry Cloud's Website: https://www.drcloud.com/about —It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.

Jesus warned that before His return, there would be wars and rumors of wars, famines, earthquakes, and widespread deception. He called these events "the beginning of birth pains." Pastor Allen asks the piercing question: Are we living in those very days now? In this episode, he opens with a look at a global shift that few in mainstream media will even acknowledge: peace breaking out in regions long plagued by hatred and violence. He highlights unlikely reconciliation efforts between bitter rivals such as Azerbaijan and Armenia, India and Pakistan, Egypt and Ethiopia, and more. With the world watching as Trump and Putin convene in Alaska, Pastor Allen reminds us that the real battle is not left versus right but truth versus deception. The question on the table is: What can we do?—It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture. It may feel like an impossible assignment, but there’s much we can do.

Is anti-Zionism simply antisemitism in disguise? In this episode, Pastor Allen and Israeli Pastor Samuel Smadja explore how anti-Zionism (often viewed as political or cultural) is deeply spiritual, and it mirrors something seen throughout history: a supernatural hatred for the Jewish people. The language may have changed, but the spirit behind it has not. The Jewish people are living evidence that God is who He says He is, and His Word is true. Scattered, persecuted, and regathered—Israel's survival is more than historical. It’s prophetic. The same spirit that hates the Jews also hates the Church, and we need to learn to recognize that spirit so we're prepared for what's ahead.—"Simple Man" by Charlie Daniels - UMPG License #262673It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.

In this episode, Pastor Allen confronts the silence surrounding one of the most chilling scandals of our time. The Epstein case wasn’t just about one man—it was a doorway into a network of wealth, power, and corruption that reaches into the highest levels of government, media, and global influence. He explores unsettling questions such as: Is there a connection between Epstein's client list and the State of Israel? What is Israel’s true significance—not just politically, but biblically, prophetically, and culturally? Why does this one nation remain at the center of so many global conflicts, conspiracies, and spiritual battles? Someone is working hard to keep the truth buried, but God's Word says, “There is nothing secret that will not be known and come to light” (Luke 8:17).__ "Simple Man" by Charlie Daniels - UMPG License #262673It’s up to us to bring God’s truth back into our culture.
