Episode #196
In this episode, Ryan is joined by filmmaker Matthew Thayer for a discussion on Christian cultural engagement. They discuss how humanity has progressed precisely because of the principles of the Kingdom of God filtering into society. Without Christians engaging and leading in culture, humanity regresses and goes backwards. It's time for Christians to stand up and be the salt and light God has called them to be, instead of continuing to let the world set the stage. This episode will encourage you to take your place in the fight to advance the Kingdom of God on earth today.
