    Should Christians Stay Silent? Pastor Raymond Chang on Faith, Justice & Today's Divided World

    In this episode of Take 1.5 Podcast, I sit down with Pastor Raymond Chang, president of the Asian American Christian Collaborative, pastor, writer, and ministry leader, to explore what Scripture says about living faithfully in politically and socially divided times.We talk about the difference between being political and being biblical, how Christians can engage difficult issues without losing compassion or conviction, why silence is not always neutrality, and what practical responsibility believers have toward their neighbors, especially those who are vulnerable. Rather than responding with fear, outrage, or avoidance, Raymond offers a thoughtful framework for pursuing truth, justice, humility, and hope.Whether you're wrestling with current events, feeling spiritually exhausted by the headlines, or wondering what faithful discipleship looks like today, this conversation offers biblical wisdom for navigating our world with courage, grace, and love.
