Is it enough to champion biblical principles without knowing the God behind them? What happens when thousands of leaders—Christian and non-Christian alike—gather around biblical principles to reimagine the future of Western civilization? Today, Katherine Gallagher takes us behind the scenes of the rapidly growing Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (ARC) conference in London to find out. Founded by Jordan Peterson and others, ARC set itself up as an alternative to the World Economic Forum; ARC is tapping into a global hunger for truth, meaning, and renewal. But again, can principles alone bring lasting change without the Person behind them?

Main Topics

• Principles vs. Person – Exploring the tension between shared moral values and the need for spiritual transformation through Christ
• Jordan Peterson's emphasis on self-sacrificial servant leadership but lack of open faith in the Sustainer of these virtues
• Biblical principles work whether people acknowledge their divine source or not
• Sustainable transformation requires both good ideas and changed hearts

Cultural or civilizational transformation requires both biblical ideas and transformed hearts; as Katherine put it, "Truth is a person, not just principles."

The resurrection of Jesus isn't just a promise of life after death—it's the power to live as we were created to in the Garden. In this Easter conversation, we explore how Christ's victory over the grave restores not only our relationship with God, but also makes possible our original calling to steward creation, pursue justice, and do good in the world.

Too often, Christians see salvation as an escape from judgment rather than an invitation to meaningful participation in God's redemptive work. Let's remember that the Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead now lives in us and can help us live out God's design in every part of our lives, vocations, relationships, and communities.

Main Topics:

• The resurrection as restoration of our original purpose
• How the Holy Spirit empowers us to live out God's design
• Why this world—and what we do in it—deeply matters to God

Join us as we draw from Scripture and real-world examples to unpack what it means that Christ is reconciling all things to Himself and how your everyday actions can reflect the coming Kingdom. From conflict resolution to creativity, your life now carries eternal significance.

Cultural and political debates around DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) and climate change dominate headlines—but what deeper ideas are fueling these movements? Why did these ideas gain such traction, and how should Christians respond?

AI is here—it’s reshaping how we see ourselves and our place in the world. In this episode, we use a biblical lens to wrestle with big questions raised by AI. What worldviews are shaping its development? How might it impact our relationship with God, others, ourselves, and even creation?

AI brings both promise and concern—offering breakthroughs in almost every industry while also challenging creativity, work, and human connection. Rather than reacting with fear or blind optimism, let's explore together how to think critically about AI and its role in our lives. How can we approach this new reality with discernment and faith?

From the rise of AI to movements like Black Lives Matter, and whatever the next big issue will be, Christians face a world filled with compelling but deceptive narratives and trends. We believe this is a major weakness in the Church today—but it doesn't have to be. Christians must develop a comprehensive biblical worldview to navigate the pressing issues of our time with wisdom and conviction.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why we must look beyond surface-level branding to uncover deeper worldview assumptions
• The importance of examining a movement’s fruit and the beliefs of its founders
• The reality that good and evil run through every human heart—not between groups
• How modern ideologies often strip people of personal agency and responsibility
• The need for Christians to ask deeper questions about cultural norms and practices
• How cultural definitions of words often differ from biblical meanings
• Why critical thinking requires evaluating the worldview behind policies and movements
• The truth that the gospel is about more than personal salvation—it speaks to every area of life and culture
