For us to be classifying and categorizing ourselves and breaking us up in races, this is all a scheme, if you will, that you know was broke down in this book, a scheme of nefarious characters in our history who really wanted to, you know, make sure that we saw ourselves, as you know, evolved creatures, not of god's creation, and really felt that we should be, that we were unequal.
What happens when you mix faith, history, and a deep dive into America's most pressing social issues? You get an eye-opening conversation between Channon Bailey and Kevin McGary, the President of Every Black Life Matters. In this episode, they tackle the tough questions: How did America get to its current state? What role does the church play in addressing racism, white supremacy, and Marxism? And what can each of us do to make a difference?
Kevin McGary doesn't hold back as he discusses the historical figures who have shaped modern ideologies—from Marx and Engels to Hitler and Mao—and how their legacies continue to impact us today. The conversation shifts to the roots of atheism, the rise of eugenics, and the troubling persistence of racism and sexism. They even touch on controversial topics like toxic masculinity and abortion.
Channon and Kevin also explore the threats posed by movements like Black Lives Matter, while defining what real racism looks like in today's society. Kevin answers Channon's burning question about whether the church should be involved in politics. Spoiler alert: He believes it should. They wrap up by discussing why Christians shouldn't feel guilty about historical injustices like slavery, urging listeners to focus on what can be done now.
One standout moment is Kevin's powerful statement: 'The condition of America is the report card of the church'. It's a call-to-action for Christians to engage more deeply in social issues and politics, emphasizing that civic engagement is crucial for meaningful change. If you're looking for a thought-provoking discussion that challenges conventional wisdom and offers practical steps for involvement, this episode is a must-listen.
