  • How Advisors Change Culture with Jeremy Brown

    How Advisors Change Culture with Jeremy Brown
    Feb 19 2025
    So, a Christian and a secular film festival director walk into a bar. Actually, they’re the same person. How? That’s the crazy story we’re telling on today’s episode when we continue our series breaking down each of the six types of “Joyful Outsiders” God uses to engage with culture. Jeremy Brown, a Christian and former Executive Director of a progressive, non-Christian film festival, joins us to provide an example of the advisor, those who impact culture by influencing the influential. Advisors are “in the room where it all happens” and aren’t necessarily in charge, but influence people in power. Jeremy explains his backstory and how he got involved with the internationally recognized True/False Film Fest. Did this secular organization know much about his personal faith convictions? How did he help bridge the gap between the film fest and one of the festival’s sponsors, his own church? And how did he handle the controversy that ensued after a contradictory sermon at his church led to a dramatic partnership ending that drew national attention? What kind of advice would he offer to other advisors with a foot in both worlds? Listen now! Are you an advisor too? Or maybe you’re an artist, protester, trainer, builder, or ambassador?

  • The Cultural Vibes, They Are A-Shiftin’

    The Cultural Vibes, They Are A-Shiftin’
    Feb 12 2025
    Is it culturally acceptable to be a Christian again? Is it cool to be a conservative now? Is culture turning its back on the last ten progressive, anti-religious years? Consider today’s episode a vibe check on our current cultural moment. Everybody seems to be talking about a cultural vibe shift, but what does it mean? What’s changed? Keith and Patrick team up on today’s episode to break it down. They examine American vibe shifts of the past and provide a number of recent examples to prove a new cultural shift is here: Bible sales rising to an all-time high, Joe Rogan showcasing his spiritual openness, “Trump dances” trending in the NFL, tech billionaires proudly attending the inauguration, businesses shutting down DEI departments, Meta firing fact checkers, and more. But why is all of this happening? Did the progressive movement become a victim of its own success? And how should Christians react? Does this new cultural vibe shift present more opportunities for spreading the Gospel? Will a more shallow version of “cultural Christianity” begin to rise? Listen now!

  • Embrace the Cringe: What Comes After Postmodernism? with Paul Anleitner

    Embrace the Cringe: What Comes After Postmodernism? with Paul Anleitner
    Feb 5 2025
    “A period of cultural change is commencing.” That’s what Paul Anleitner recently posted on X. But what cultural vibe shift is he referencing? Have we come to the end of postmodernism? Paul joins Patrick on the pod today to discuss our new metamodernism moment. Paul is a writer, theologian of culture, podcast host, and pastor. He begins by explaining the progression from modernism to postmodernism, and how the 1990s ushered in a level of cynicism and suspicion that’s remained until just recently. He then explains how he’s observed a newer metamodern vibe shift: the exhaustion of cynicism, the failure of postmodernism, the myth of secular progressivism, and the crisis of meaning that’s led to a sincere desire for authenticity. Providing examples such as Creed and Ted Lasso, he explains why he believes our culture is ready to “embrace the cringe.” But what does a new metamodern era look like? And what opportunities does this metamodern moment open up for Christians? Listen now! "Joyful Outsiders" is available now! Learn more, read a sample chapter, and grab your own copy here.

Having raised my kids in the same era as this young woman, I remember the pressure on parents to keep your children from the world.
I was scared all the time. At 66, I relate to everything Ms. Billups said. I seemed like a frothing Democrat when I cheered and played Ray Charles' Georgia and Hit The Road Jack on Facebook the day after the election. I also share the POV that being pro life encompasses more than abortion; and I marched for George Floyd. as rich as this nation is, we should have good schools, healthcare, safe neighborhoods, and better elder care. The Catholics are better at this than the Protestants, just saying. I'm appalled at the militant pro-gun propagandists and the lack of concern for the earth.
I don't view these opinions as being a lefty at all. I view myself as a grateful steward and proponent of safety for everyone. I liked her very much.
