    Post Woke America: Truth, Grace, and the Christian Response

    Neil Shenvi, a Christian apologist, shares how Christians can faithfully engage an increasingly post-Christian culture with both truth and compassion. Drawing from Scripture and his own experience as a former non-Christian graduate student at University of California, Berkeley, Shenvi explains how believers can build meaningful relationships, lovingly point people to Christ, and avoid falling into self-righteousness or fear. The conversation explores the rise of critical theory and “wokeness,” tracing their roots to Marxist ideas about oppression and power, and discussing how concepts like equity, inclusion, and lived experience have been redefined in modern culture. Shenvi and Daly also address difficult cultural topics including gender ideology, preferred pronouns, racial narratives, and truth versus “poetic truth,” with grace and truth, standing on biblical truth while demonstrating Christlike love, especially toward family members, coworkers, and others who may strongly disagree with their beliefs.   Get a copy of Neil's book, Post Woke: Asserting a Biblical Vision of Race, Gender, and Sexuality, for a gift of any amount.   Dr. Shelby Steele addresses racial division in America, examining the civil rights movement of the 1960s and comparing it to the campaign for social justice today.
