    130. Christianity in a Collapsing Britain, with the Vexed Vicar

    Britain appears to be in the middle of a controlled collapse. Illegal migrants from non-Christian countries are escorted in and protected. Concerned British people are sidelined by law enforcement. The media may ignore it. The British government responsible for safeguarding the country may be okay with it. But what are Christians to think when they see this historically Christian nation being undermined? Joining the Christian Emergency Podcast to make sense of things is Chris Wickland, also known as the Vexed Vicar. Chris has had a front row seat to the troubles in Britain, and has raised his voice when many have not. Chris also addresses the recent killing of Ann Widdecombe, who may have been assassinated for being a conservative, Christian leader. Ann was also a persuasive speaker who willingly engaged younger audiences, similar to Charlie Kirk. Chris examines whether influential Christian leaders are being targeted across the West and how Christians should process such developments.

    Solzhenitsyn: A Russian Voice from the Past for Christians Today, with Ignat Solzhenitsyn (Encore)

    If you are a Christian and do not know the name Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, it is high time you change that. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn was a Russian Christian, author and survivor of the Soviet Union’s labor camps. He shocked the world through his writings, which exposed the horrors of the Communist camps. His works eviscerated lies and encouraged people to confront evil themselves. Solzhenitsyn’s voice remains relevant for Christians today, as believers take stock of their cultural surroundings. Many of the societal ills called out by Solzhenitsyn have resurfaced in recent years around the world. An authoritarian impulse charges the air. Restrictions are ratcheting up on civil and religious liberties. How should Christians respond? It is precisely these types of questions that Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s writings can help answer. To help introduce all of this to a new generation of Christians, Ignat Solzhenitsyn – Aleksandr’s son – joined the Christian Emergency Podcast in this encore episode. Ignat unpacked his father’s story and revealed why his great works – like One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich and The Gulag Archipelago – are worth reading even today. These insights have broad application for Christians preparing today for pressures tomorrow.  If this encore conversation was helpful for you, please share it with your friends.

    129. Stronger Biblical Businesses for a Stronger Biblical Church, with Daniel Matlach

    One of the most common problems facing the persecuted and suffering church involves the ability to find work. SomeChristians have been fired from their roles due to their Christian faith. Others have been blacklisted and prevented from holding jobs because they are Christians. The ability to work and earn an income is more critical than some may realize. If anti-Christian authorities can prevent believers from earning a livelihood, they cannot provide for their families. They cannot tithe to their local church. In time, the Christian witness can wilt and erode away. Consequently, the Christian Emergency Alliance strives to help find solutions for Christians to find novel ways they can circumvent these challenges. One way Christians can fend for themselves is by founding and running their own small businesses. Starting a successful business, however, is easier said than done. What are Christians to do? Joining the Christian Emergency Podcast is Daniel Matlach, the CEO of Inspiring Better Business (IBB). IBB strives totraining people to apply biblical principles to start and run businesses. They are active in various countries where poverty and suffering are endemic. Daniel shares from his experience, along with the experience of IBB’s founder Gary Shotton, have learned in both business and ministry. These insights can provide help and hope for many struggling to make ends meet.  If you find this episode helpful, please give us a positive rating and review wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.Also share this episode with a friend so they too can be blessed by these insights.

    Lessons from Africa: Missions, Education and Preparing the Next Generation, with Karen Elliott (Encore)

    Africa remains important for the Church. In the coming generations, the continent will be home for a huge swath of the world’s population. And while there are many challenges facing Africa, including poverty, militant Islam and instability – there are also many exciting things taking place. Karen Elliott of the Rafiki Foundation joined the Christian Emergency Podcast in this encore episode to share about some of those exciting developments, along with valuable context. She leans on her 30+ years of experience serving as a missionary and leading a missions organization in Africa, the Rafiki Foundation. Karen discusses how Rafiki has launched classical Christian schools in multiple African nations, to bless orphans and the poor with an education that allows them to think and serve faithfully.

    The Perspectives Course: A Missionary's Caution, with Josh Manley (Encore)

    For years, the Perspectives Course has been a go-to training option for Christians eager to learn about cross-cultural missions. Thousands have been blessed by the insight delivered through the course and its training text, Perspectives on the World Christian Movement. Pastors, missions committees, future missionaries and even regular Christians hoping to learn more about God’s heart for the peoples have benefitted. And while much of Perspectives is wonderful, you should be cautious about certain teachings embedded in the course. So warned Josh Manley, a pastor serving in the United Arab Emirates. Josh joined the Christian Emergency Podcast in this encore episode to highlight his concerns, particularly with Perspective’s favorable treatment of Church Planting Movements. Church Planting Movements, or CPM, sound amazing. But as Josh pointed out, CPM is a specific methodology that, when looked at closely, may have problems. Is CPM more biblical or pragmatic? What do Christians taking the Perspectives Course need to consider? Listen in and learn as Josh unpacks this important issue, which has already made a profound impact on missions and the Church.

    126. Christ or Collapse, with Dr. David Haskell

    What happens to cultures and societies when they depart from Christian standards and norms? Intuitively, we know thatrejecting Christianity leads to troubles, for individuals, churches and even countries. But does the evidence back this intuition? Joining the Christian Emergency Podcast to answer these questions and more is Dr. David Haskell. The Canadian sociologist serves as a tenured professor at Wilfrid Laurier University. As a biblical Christian, teaching on a public college campus in Canada has proven challenging. Over his years as an academic, he’s studied the sociological data and impact of cultures either embracing or abandoning Christian norms. The conclusions were clear and compelling. Cultures that follow Christian norms enjoy greater productivity, societal trust, lower crime, and a host of other benefits. The results were so stark, that Professor Haskell abandoned liberal Christianity and embraced a biblical faith. Dr. Haskell also addresses other important topics, including the impact of mass immigration, Bill C-9 (now known as the Combatting Hate Act since it was formally enacted into law), and the rash of church fires across Canada.
