It's amazing how Jesus still makes such impact. The ultimate "influencer" as long as it's about Jesus the man not, the Messiah. People say give us Christian values and ideas we live but not the Holy, Merciful, JustGod, that it all comes from. Then we wonder why such a shallow imitation of God's restoration plan leads to chaos and confusion. Love your work everyone, at Speak Life❤

Glen is so unreasonable reasonable. Very good 👍

Great discussion Glen. I loved Kid Rock’s example of Jesus being everywhere with forgiveness by sipping Bud Light beer. Keep it up Glen. Id like to see you do a discussion on Christian Nationalism (Douglas Wilson’s perspective). I guess you are wary of Christian Nationalism?

They have done a reaction to Wolfes version of Christian Nationalism, but not a Wilson view. On reformed mythologist, there is a video with Paul Blackham where he suggests something like a middle age view of Kingdom Nationalism that I don’t think he’s strongly advocating for but it’s fairly present.

Great episode Glen! Appreciate your analysis. Isn't it interesting that Jesus is showing up in the most unusual places?😊

That’s a great hair system you got there.

Ah, thank you. Added now. (And it's here: www.firstthings.com/article/2022/02/the-three-worlds-of-evangelicalism)

I vote Jesus for president takes me back to 2016 when my young nephews and niece were battling out whose parents voted for who. “who did your parents vote for?” asked the child of my very progressive nephew. “Jesus!” was the reply of the children of my conservative niece!

Kid Rock started life as a rapper and rocker. I have no idea what his country music career has been.

I hear rumors that rock got paid pretty decently to change his tune

I love Kid Rock's Christ centric theology, Jesus is everywhere, and if ever a v2.0.comes out, he (Kid Rock) needs to be included as character: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_War_(video_game)

If you buy the story that the USA bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki because they did the math on how many would die if the war in the pacific continued, and that they concluded the nukes would save many more lives, then that is a moral quandary that could support kid rocks strategy. After all- even after the first nuke Japan still didn’t surrender. Imagine how bad the alternative would have been.

Is the "older brother of wokeness" still faithfully working under the house of the father?

Nice video - although I am on the other side generally: I think that many secular people just wish we could see more harmony in the world, and "We need Jesus" is a good rubric to represent that in the West. Jesus was fine, but his historical legacy is now one of political control - through no fault of his - and, for me that has spoiled any sense of " the Joy of seeing Jesus in the beauty of the world" or whatever. Too much baggage, I'll take the Tao and leave the cultural exceptionalism to the monotheists and Confucians (Yes I paint/tar with a broad brush there... #notallmonotheists...but enough 😁). As for the brother comparisons, I think it risks over-simplifying, and suggesting that 'progress' is opposed to 'freedom' makes the metaphor work - but is that all there is to it? Always appreciate a considered and humane take though.

Extremism of any kind is toxic, and extremist people only hurt their own causes. I'm tired of people trying to force me to "pick a side", I choose God. A NDE when I was a child both changed me and ruined my life... I saw things, I was told things, and then taken back to my family. People are soooo obsessed with this shell we inhabit called our bodies. the secret is that God is a blind man, he sees us with his ears, and hears us with his heart. If you want to truly "see" someone, listen to their words and actions, then "hear" what they say with your heart. And yeah, I've always been a moderate, and tried to vote in the interests of all the people. But the conservatives in America have driven me away from religion, and the Liberals scare me because they are huge hypocrites, preaching reverse hatred as a cure for hate. It's gonna be while before I trust the church again. I have my own church, and there are trees there, and all the precious things God created. PS... I think the left is secretly trying to replace women, sometimes with men or AI, conservatives just want us to be invisible and subservien.

Of course Rogans changed, he's changed his whole political outlook. He's moved into his 'old man scared of death phase' which comes with lot of conservative nonsense.

​@DoorDashDiaries42 it doesn't seem like you could give any examples from this interview. If anyone is desperate, it's probably you.

Kid Rock has never been a country singer
