    Try That In A Small Town

    This week we dive into the Country Music controversy surrounding Jason Aldean’s song “Try That In A Small Town”. We dive into the newest victim to Cancel Culture and talk about the double standards in the music industry. The argument made is not so much in defense of Mr. Aldean’s song, though as a conservative, I, Josh, don’t find anything wrong with it. But rather, the slippery slope we find ourselves as the left attacks our first amendment right to free speech, and the rights we have to protect ourselves from the insanity society has deemed acceptable. Though we may find ourselves anxious about where the world is headed, we can take solace in God’s promise of Salvation through His Son Jesus Christ.

    Revival

    Join us this week as we dive into a discussion about Revival, or Spiritual Renewal. What is it? Why is it needed? We will cover the recent outbreak of Revival ignited at Asbury College on February 8, 2023 as well as its predecessor Revival of February 3, 1970. Most importantly we will examine the state of the current church and its need for both Revival and Repentance as we fall back to our first love, Jesus Christ.
