The church in America today generally communicates with the culture in one of two ways. Either we preach the gospel without regard to the cultural and personal context, or we simply react defensively to the symptomatic cultural ills. Therefore, God often comes across as largely irrelevant to the everyday life of the average American. Consequently, the culture ends up regarding us, along with God, as out of touch or, even worse, dangerous. In light of this, if the Bible is true, and God really exists, we must conclude we have failed to effectively communicate God to our culture. Our hope is that through this podcast we can all learn to use the symptomatic felt issues within our culture as springboards to address what underlies the cultural mindset in which we live and breathe, our view of God. What we believe to be true about God will determine how we live and relate to those around us .
This podcast was created specifically for the listener who ardently desires to bring about wholesale change within the American cultural mindset. It is designed with the listener who wishes to help frame the message that could ultimately allow us to win the war, not just individual battles. It is designed for the listener who wants to put the cornerstone, God himself, back into his proper place as the foundation upon which the American social and moral experience can be erected once again. It’s time to return to the basics, but in a relevant and understandable manner. We will only win the war for the soul of America by making God the central issue within the culture. There is no longer any other way to win. Our hope is that this weekly podcast conversation will help us to frame the “God” issue in a way that our fellow Americans can more readily understand and except. We trust that our conversation will help us collectively to recapture the soul of America so we may become the nation that is a shining light on a hill. That was the dream of our forefathers, and it is our dream as well. Our prayer is that we may understand our times and know what to do. Thanks for tuning in to the “God is the Issue” podcast .

Governor goes from Crazy to Dangerous --- Especially if you’re black!
This is Brad Bright and the GITI podcast where we show how God is the issue in every issue.
We can trace all our human problems to a broken view of God.
And that’s why we say that the problem in America today is not
that there it too much darkness, The problem is there is not enough
light.
Today we are talking about what the Gov. of New Mexico did and said last week.
Politicians often say crazy things, but New Mexico Gov. Lujan Grisham
recently crossed the line, from crazy to dangerous!
Honestly, I don’t think she even realizes the implications of what she said
and the devastating cultural implications.
But by the end of this podcast, you will,
and you will know what you can do!
What’s the solution?
YOU are the solution.
Only YOU can bring God back
into the conversation in your home,
your neighborhood, and your community.
The choice is simple.
The choice is yours.
You can start this coming Halloween by giving the children who knock on your door,
both what they want and what they need.
Give them a piece of candy
along with your favorite gospel tract for children.
If you don’t have a favorite, then go to BrightMedia.org
and order a pack of the 4Keys4Kids in English or
Cuatro LLaves Para Niños in Spanish.
Do it because you care about America.
Do it because you care about gun violence.
Do it because you care about children.
God is the issue—in every issue.

The One Good Thing About ChatGPT Twisting The Bible
With Brad Bright. Speaker & Author.
As always, Like & Subscribe if you have found this podcast
helpful.
A lot of Christians are reacting
again.
This time, because some folks are
using
ChatGPT to rewrite the Bible.
Now, of course, that’s not a good
thing…
However, I’m encouraged. Let me explain
why.
Oscar Wilde, who wrote The Picture
of Dorian Gray, said,
“Imitation is the
sincerest form of flattery”
Most of us have heard that quote,
and maybe even
uttered it.
However, that is not the complete quote.
Mr. Wilde’s full statement is a bit more—
shall we say, descriptive.
But I will circle back to that in a few moments.
First, let me say, that if Oscar Wilde was right,
then Christians
should feel very flattered.
So, if you are concerned about ChatGPT
twisting scriptures,
start viewing it as an opportunity to
engage the people around you in spiritual conversations
about what the Bible DOES say.
Not by LECTURING them with your finger
in the air,
but by graciously offering them something better.
However, unlike the federal government,
you can’t give away what you don’t own.
So, make sure you are daily and weekly,
equipping yourself to have those spiritual conversations,
by being in God’s Word.
God is the issue—in every issue.
So, let’s use ChatGPt
to go out and MAKE him the issue.

It's Only a Tiny Piece of Dog Poop ...
This is Brad Bright and the God is the Issue Podcast….
The problem in America today is
not that there is too much darkness,
The problem is there is not enough
light.
You see, we can trace all our
human problems
to a broken view of God.
That is why we always say, God is the issue—in every issue.
A friend gives you a bottle of
pure spring water.
As you are getting ready to drink
it they say,…..
How much dog poop is too much,
before you say you won’t drink it?
Remember, the problem in America
is not that there is too much darkness.
The problem is there is not enough light.
Together we can make a difference.
God is the issue—in every issue.

7:00 If someone PUBLICLY DEMEANED your SPOUSE,
how would that make you feel?

demean the name of Jesus?
10:28 How do you think God feels when
someone blasphemes his name?
12:09 When God’s people do not
honor God’s name, do you think he feels like pouring out his blessings on us?

THE BORDER, COMPASSION, AND JESUS
The problem in America is not that there is too much
darkness,
The problem is there is not enough light.
That is why God is the issue—in every issue.
Today I will be talking about the Border, Compassion and
Jesus.
I am going to talk about what’s going on at the border,
what it means to be compassionate on this issue, and what Jesus has to do with it.
The same Jesus who said,
“Blessed are the merciful
for they shall receive mercy,”
also said,
“Be as shrewd as snakes but
as innocent as doves.”
In other words, compassion
without wisdom is folly.
Many open-border folks accuse
build-the-wall
folks of lacking compassion.
But those who wish to throw the
border wide open lack wisdom.
0:50 I used to support an open border.
3:45 Jesus said, “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
06:17 The United States government is completely incapable of solving the underlying problem.
07:15 The primary symptom of the problem: “MORBIDA.”
12:01 I am reminded of William Wilberforce,

I’ve Blown It Too: Jesus, Politics, and the Gospel!
I’ve Blown It Too: Jesus, Politics, and the Gospel
Our country is tearing itself apart.
Even within the Church, there are
competing ideas about what we should do.
Today I want to talk about that.
Jesus gave all 3 commands.
You can’t follow Jesus
and embrace 2 his commands but ignore the 3rd.
You either do what he asked you to do, or you don’t.
Partial obedience is also partial disobedience.
We do this by making God’s heart our heart,
both for the hurting AND the lost.
Just like Jesus.
God is the issue—in every issue.

GOD is the Issue Podcast with Brad Bright
Can’t wait for the next one! Great insight. Motivating and hopeful. I guess I can make a difference… with a little more help!
this is a nope for me
Prime example of opinion over truth. And his voice is annoying.
