About this listen

This episode warns Christians about the dangers of equating the church with political conservatism and rushing into public alliances with people or movements that contradict biblical teaching. Using 2 Corinthians 6:14–16, it expands the "unequally yoked" warning beyond marriage to cultural and political partnerships.

It examines how the pursuit of political victory can lead believers to tolerate or endorse blatant sin among allies, highlights recent examples of problematic public figures, and stresses the need for discernment and public calls to repentance rather than unquestioning support.

The episode concludes with a call to prioritize the proclamation of the gospel, engage the culture faithfully, demand laws that honor God, and ultimately trust God's sovereignty rather than placing hope in political expedients.
