"For many with conservative values, this change has not been positive. We are emotionally stressed, longing for the “good ol’ days” when life was simpler, more wholesome, less plastic, and happier. We want idyllic towns, kids playing outside, and French fries fried in beef tallow. In short, we feel and want “nostalgia.”  An audio reading of this article: https://truthscript.com/culture/a-biblical-case-for-nostalgia/For more content visit us: http://truthscript.com

"Discipline is definitely involved in “church discipline,” and it is not at all an unloving term. When we are unable to exhibit sufficient, godly self-discipline, then Scripture provides us with principles for disciplining one another in the body of Christ. Yet, another valid description of the process would be “biblical restoration,” because the heart of the church’s effort is to see a sinner restored to right standing with God and fellowship with the church body. "An audio reading of this article: https://truthscript.com/church/misunderstanding-church-discipline/For more content visit us: http://truthscript.com

"This is not an exhaustive list of potential pitfalls, but they are the main ones I can see crippling the movement should they ever take root.

Really though, it is not so much a new path but a return to the old path we left to our peril. "An audio reading of this article: https://truthscript.com/church/six-cautions-for-the-new-christian-right/For more articles visit us: http://truthscript.com

In this episode, we reflect on the end of Joe Biden's presidency and the transition to Donald Trump's return to power. The episode explores the profound impacts of Biden’s policies on American families, from vaccine mandates to the fentanyl crisis, and the relief many feel as Trump’s leadership promises a return to common-sense governance. We delve into the shifting dynamics in evangelical circles, where emotions have been weaponized to justify policies like illegal immigration, and discuss the importance of biblical justice in navigating these issues. As Christians, we explore the call to pursue power for the good of society and stand firm against cultural and moral decay. Join us in celebrating the reprieve from the chaos of the last administration, and prepare to take action as we look toward a future shaped by better principles and leadership.
