Keeping the Main Thing the Main Thing

Keeping the Main Thing the Main Thing26 Aug54 min

Jacob returns after a long hiatus to discuss recent life changes, plans for a more regular release schedule, and a few previously recorded interviews that will be released soon. He also focuses on the tension between Christian faith, political action, and the use of power, reflecting on the costs of political engagement and arguing for a third way: Christians should rely on persuasion, service, and sacrifice rather than coercion. He also discusses the limits of state power, the dangers of political violence, and the importance of the church in caring for the poor, the elderly, and the vulnerable. He concludes by returning to the gospel as the answer to cultural decay, calling Christians to humility, neighbor-love, and a greater priority on the kingdom of God than political identity.
