Truth Over Tribe: Christian Takes on Culture, News & Politics

Tired of the culture war? This is that podcast that’s too liberal for conservatives, too conservative for liberals. We seek to follow the lamb, not the donkey or elephant.

  1. How Builders Change Culture with Brent Beshore

    How Builders Change Culture with Brent Beshore

    “Create wealthy, autonomous consumption machines.” That’s been described as the end goal of the American dream. Sounds positive at face value. But is it biblical? This week’s episode continues our series of breaking down the six ways that Christians can impact culture as presented in our book, “Joyful Outsiders.” Today, we’re focusing on builders, or people who build institutions where we live our common life (think: business, healthcare, education, church, etc.). To illustrate, we’re talking to Brent Beshore, Founder and President of Permanent Equity, a private equity firm that operates much differently than its counterparts. Brent starts by detailing his own journey and how he went from an atheist to a Christian. He explains how he weaves his faith into business, resisting the urge to create a model that’s built on self-reliance. He points out the pitfalls of the American dream, describes his ultimate goal for his businesses, and shares where he allows Christian values to come into play in business settings. Plus, is it a sin to be rich? How can someone know if it’s God, or the allure of the American dream, that’s calling them to an opportunity? And what advice would he give to people who want to resist the temptation to build their own kingdoms? Listen now! Are you a builder too? Or maybe you’re an artist, protester, trainer, builder, advisor, or ambassador? Find out by taking our quick quiz now. "Joyful Outsiders" is available now!

    How Trainers Change Culture with Dirk Smith

    How can we change culture without being changed by culture? In our new book, “Joyful Outsiders,” we explore this question and share six ways that Christians are called to navigate and transform the world around them. In today’s episode, we’re focusing on the trainer, or someone who changes the world by discipling others, changing habits, and introducing people to the Bible and prayer. Dirk Smith, VP of Eastern European Mission, joins Patrick to provide one such example. Through EEM, Dirk is taking Bibles and Bible-based materials into 30+ countries in over 20 languages. Hear Dirk share a specific example from Ukraine, where he helped place Bibles in over three-fourths of their public schools and has seen measurable impacts on their society as a whole. Plus, what are some lessons that the Church needs to learn from trainers? What would he say to churches that are tempted to be fixated on politics over evangelism? Listen now!  Are you a trainer too? Or maybe you’re an artist, protester, builder, advisor, or ambassador? Find out by taking our quick quiz now: https://hubs.li/Q034ztC30 "Joyful Outsiders" is coming January 21, 2025.

To follow the example of Jesus and choose the path of the outsider? And to do so… joyfully? Listen now!  Preorder Joyful Outsiders now and be the first to receive it next week.

    How Ambassadors Change Culture with Patrick Cox

    Have you ever thought, “I want to get better at sharing my faith, but I don’t know where to start”? Then this episode is for you! In our new book, “Joyful Outsiders,” we break down six ways that Christians can change culture (without being changed by culture). On today’s episode, we’re focusing on ambassadors, those who find great joy in sharing the gospel with people who are far from God and seeing them come to faith in Jesus. Joining us to provide such an example is our friend, Patrick Cox. Patrick is the Chief Production Officer at Veterans United Home Loans in Columbia, Missouri. Today, Patrick shares some practical evangelism tips learned through years of sharing his faith through “Faith and Doubt” discussion groups at work. He explains the motivation behind his drive for evangelism, whether or not he ever feels intimidated by the process, and how he addresses people’s most intense questions and skepticisms. Plus, what are the most common doubts he encounters? Has he noticed a current shift in the public’s opinion on Christianity? How should Christians approach those who have experienced church hurt? Patrick ends by providing some practical guidelines for more effectively sharing your faith. Listen now! Are you an ambassador? Or maybe you're an advisor, trainer, artist, builder, or protester?

    6 Ways Christians Can Change Culture

    Christ against culture. Christ for culture. Christ transforming culture. Which approach is correct? Shouldn’t Christians have a one-size-fits-all, agreed upon set of principles for engaging with culture? The truth is that the Bible doesn’t give us one right answer. More like…six! On today’s episode, Keith and Patrick are previewing the six types of culture changers they lay out in their new book, Joyful Outsiders. They introduce each type: the trainer, the protester, the advisor, the artist, the ambassador, and the builder. The two share key insights for each, as well as biblical examples and temptations, or weak spots. They highlight the importance of unity and diverse churches that can make room for such different approaches to culture change. Plus, which type are you?

    You Can’t Say That in Church! with Brenna Blain

    Abuse. Molestation. Same-sex attraction. Mental health crises. What if our hardest questions, secret struggles, and biggest doubts aren’t meant to stay secrets but can lead us closer to God’s heart? Brenna Blain is a contemporary theologian and the author of “Can I Say That?” She joins Patrick on the pod today to share her own journey of wrestling with God at the intersection of faith and suffering. Providing an open look into her past, she invites listeners to be vulnerable themselves, citing how God has consistently met her in the tension of her most complex questions and toughest circumstances. She discusses the profound power of honesty and vulnerability and how not all stories conclude with a clean-cut “Amazing Grace” ending. We hope this episode leaves you feeling deeply challenged and connected to a God who isn’t afraid of your questions. Listen now! Our new book, Joyful Outsiders, is coming January 21, 2025.

    Why Trump Was Reelected: A Post-Election Postmortem

    As the dust begins to settle one month after the 2024 election, many have started to analyze what Donald Trump’s decisive victory says about the current state of the country. Today, Patrick and Keith are teaming up to break down a few of their favorite takes on it all, namely a piece from Ross Douthat of The New York Times. They discuss the resurgence of the anti-establishment movement, the death of mainstream media and the rise of “new media” sources, and the state of Liberalism in America. They break down what post-liberalism looks like on the left and the right and explain how radical outsiders are no longer outliers in their parties but prominent voices in each. They discuss how drastically the media landscape is changing and explain why 2024 is already being referred to as “The Podcast Election.” Plus, why does this hinge point in our culture matter for Christians?

  8. Walking Through Deconstruction with Ian Harber

    20/11/2024

    Walking Through Deconstruction with Ian Harber

    “Backslider.” A catch-all too often used to describe those within the faith who ask hard questions. But why doesn’t the church have a more positive category for its members who begin to question their faith? Is the solution really to just come up with the right answers and shut them down? Or is there something deeper happening? Today’s podcast guest, Ian Harber, speaks from personal experience. He shares his own process of deconstruction and reconstruction, which has taken more than ten years, and explores with Patrick what’s actually happening, both culturally and spiritually, when someone deconstructs their faith. He explains why apologetics has become the central focus of deconstruction but shares why Christians must shift conversations away from intellectual debates and instead to deeper issues. Plus, why is there so much deconstruction content available now? What would he say to churches that don’t have a healthy category for the deconstructors within their congregation? And is there deconstruction on the right, or is it limited to progressive theology? Listen now! Our new book, Joyful Outsiders, is coming January 21, 2025.
