This week, we speak with Jeff Childers, attorney and author of the Coffee & Covid Substack. We discuss the legal routes he took in 2020 to gain the attention of the State of Florida and Gov. DeSantis, the transgender movement, and how he still can't get Christian leaders to speak publicly about why the Church is “essential.” Jeff Childers is an attorney located in Gainesville, Florida, where he lives with his wife and three boys. He has been actively involved since March 2020, providing truth, optimism, and hope as the author of the widely read international blog: www.coffeeandcovid.com. He is one of the nation's leading attorneys standing against unconstitutional mandates invading citizens' bodily and medical autonomy. Since the 2020 pandemic, Jeff has represented a variety of clients and cases covering many controversial topics. He has managed to get an appellate decision finding that mandatory masking was presumptively unconstitutional, and he also shut down the City of Gainesville's “vaccinate or terminate” policy as unconstitutional with a first-in-the-nation broad injunction against a vaccine mandate.

For years, émigrés from the former Soviet bloc have been telling Rod Dreher they see telltale signs of "soft" totalitarianism cropping up in America--something more Brave New World than Nineteen Eighty-Four. Identity politics are beginning to encroach on every aspect of life. Civil liberties are increasingly seen as a threat to "safety". Progressives marginalize conservative, traditional Christians, and other dissenters. Technology and consumerism hasten the possibility of a corporate surveillance state. And the pandemic, having put millions out of work, leaves our country especially vulnerable to demagogic manipulation. In Live Not By Lies, Dreher amplifies the alarm sounded by the brave men and women who fought totalitarianism. He explains how the totalitarianism facing us today is based less on overt violence and more on psychological manipulation. He tells the stories of modern-day dissidents--clergy, laity, martyrs, and confessors from the Soviet Union and the captive nations of Europe--who offer practical advice for how to identify and resist totalitarianism in our time. Following the model offered by a prophetic World War II-era pastor who prepared believers in his Eastern European to endure the coming of communism, Live Not By Lies teaches American Christians a method for resistance:   •  SEE: Acknowledge the reality of the situation.   •  JUDGE: Assess reality in the light of what we as Christians know to be true.   •  ACT: Take action to protect truth. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn famously said that one of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming totalitarianism can't happen in their country. Many American Christians are making that mistake today, sleepwalking through the erosion of our freedoms. Live Not By Lies will wake them and equip them for the long resistance.

In this series, we will take a deep dive into a book written by Rod Dreher called "Live Not By Lies." In it, Dreher interviews former Christian dissidents from the European former Communist states. What do they have to say about the state that the West find itself in? That is what we will be learning. In the last few episodes we have been focusing on the forces at work in our Western World that are driving the ascent of Marxism even as we see the descent of Christianity. In this episode we will conclude the role suffering plays in the lives of the dissident believer and give my concluding remarks.Here is the link to "Live Not By Lies" https://www.amazon.com/Live-Not-Lies-Christian-Dissidents/dp/B0892SPHYG/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Live+Not+by+Lies&qid=1626635286&sr=8-1

Episode 10 – Resistance ReadinessHave you ever wondered, after seeing a headline about a mandate-related confrontation (on an airplane or at a supermarket), how you would've acted in a similar situation?  Too often we dismiss the thought because we assume that it would “never happen to me.”  The prevalence of such impositions upon our liberties and the increasing lengths to which governments have proven willing to go, should put men on high alert. Chad conducts the sounds of alarm while Ben polishes the brass of his best prepper instinct.  The two walk through scenarios of gov't overreach and ask what the proper response ought to be.  At what point should the line be drawn and a stand taken?  Is a Christians' call to resistance merely “turning the other cheek”?  They draw conclusions and outline three guiding principles for men to be ready to resist tyranny.     SHOW NOTES:Video of ‘Non-compliant Traveler' (2 year old):  https://www.news.com.au/travel/travel-updates/incidents/outrage-as-maskless-toddler-with-asthma-kicked-off-american-airlines-flight/news-story/a9436bd9627198cfbb1b174861531000 United Airlines Flight 93, “Let's Roll” Reenactment:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7arO6mTs5W0 Short Video of St Maximilian Kolbe:   https://reallifecatholic.com/video/st-maximilian-kolbe/ Live Not By Lies, by Rod Dreher:   https://www.amazon.com/Live-Not-Lies-Christian-Dissidents/dp/0593087399

Everybody says that they have no choice but to conform... and to accept powerlessness. But that is a lie that gives all the other lies their malign force. The ordinary man may not be able to overturn the kingdom of lies, but he can at least say that he is not going to be its loyal subject. https://www.amazon.com/Live-Not-Lies-Christian-Dissidents/dp/0593087399 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/donavon-riley/support

Today's left-wing totalitarianism once again appeals to an internal hunger, specifically the hunger for a just society, one that vindicates and liberates the historical victims of oppression. It masquerades as kindness, demonizing dissenters and disfavored demographic groups to protect the feelings of "victims" in order to bring about "social justice."

Rod and Kale discuss Rod's upcoming trip to Italy to promote Live Not By Lies as well as a trip to San Galgano and the strange story that has been part of Rod's life for the last few years. They move on to discuss an impending hostage crisis in Afghanistan, and the deep resonances with the Iran situation when Rod was a kid. He wonders if we are moving into our own version of the "Chernenko Years." Chernenko is the image Rod uses of the teetering Gerontocratic mess of late Soviet decline. We too are run by a gerontocracy, and they discuss why have we been unable to cycle this generation through. They move on to discuss Kyeyune's essay "Farewell to Bourgeois Kings and the sad truth that our elites are no longer effective. What they are doing simply no longer works.    They move on to discuss the long-term effects of people being mediated through social media, and the growing rift between the real and the virtual. We are overwhelmed by complexity. What role do the pattern-watchers have in making sense of the madness? How does the truth get translated?   Mentioned in this episode:   Keyune's essay: https://tinkzorg.wordpress.com/2021/08/16/farewell-to-bourgeois-kings/ Carl Trueman: https://www.amazon.com/Rise-Triumph-Modern-Self-Individualism/dp/1433556332 The Big Short: https://www.amazon.com/Big-Short-Inside-Doomsday-Machine/dp/0393338827/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=the+big+short&qid=1629980900&s=books&sr=1-2 The Benedict Option: https://www.amazon.com/Benedict-Option-Strategy-Christians-Post-Christian/dp/0735213305/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=the+benedict+option&qid=1629980940&s=books&sr=1-1 Live Not By Lies: https://www.amazon.com/Live-Not-Lies-Christian-Dissidents/dp/0593087399/ref=pd_bxgy_1/139-4770705-8318864?pd_rd_w=8rsGn&pf_rd_p=c64372fa-c41c-422e-990d-9e034f73989b&pf_rd_r=JFA4X70W1MZANGGKQH72&pd_rd_r=a7db35fc-082c-42bc-96e7-880a2ef75684&pd_rd_wg=ext9X&pd_rd_i=0593087399&psc=1

"What, is heaven just another ghetto then?" Baldwin asks. With this episode, as with "His Stripes and Our Stripes," I don't at all intend to minimize suffering or support the continuing subordination of oppressed groups. Rather, my hope is that this podcast will help you to see that 1) nonviolence is not passive, but active, 2) living one's true self, like the perfect human Jesus Christ, is actually freeing, and 3) our call to Christian living is grounded in the hope of Jesus, not in circumstances, and therefore it is objective and permanent, not fickle and shifting: https://www.amazon.com/Live-Not-Lies-Christian-Dissidents/dp/0593087399/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1612546493&sr=8-1 Baucham sermon (I couldn't find the sermon link, but will have his quote at the bottom): My Post "Is the Gospel Enough?": https://www.dckreider.com/blog-theological-musings/is-the-gospel-enough Bearing Our Crosses: https://www.dckreider.com/blog-theological-musings/bearing-our-crosses The Heavenly Multitude: https://www.dckreider.com/blog-theological-musings/the-heavenly-multitude Economic Pornography and Pet Sins: https://www.dckreider.com/blog-theological-musings/economic-pornography-and-pet-sins Western Wealth Through the Bible's Eyes: https://www.dckreider.com/blog-theological-musings/western-wealth-through-the-bibles-eyes The Comfortable, White Evangelical: https://www.dckreider.com/blog-theological-musings/the-comfortable-white-evangelical CT Article: https://www.christianitytoday.com/edstetzer/2020/june/reflections-from-christian-scholar-on-social-justice-critic.html NT Wright The Day The Revolution Began: https://www.amazon.com/Day-Revolution-Began-Reconsidering-Crucifixion/dp/0062334395/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=The+Day+the+Revolution+Began&qid=1606930592&sr=8-1 One Orthodox thought on politics at 30 minute mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDuXFLJkDt0&feature=youtu.be Reading While Black: https://www.amazon.com/Reading-While-Black-American-Interpretation/dp/083085486X/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=reading+while+black&qid=1606930574&sr=8-1 Icons of Christ: https://www.amazon.com/Icons-Christ-Biblical-Systematic-Ordination/dp/1481313185/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=icons+of+christ&qid=1606930619&sr=8-1CRT Legislation Episode Voddie Baucham Quote: It is so disheartening to see so many pastors and Christians losetheir religion and exchange it for Social Justice.  Pastors marchingwith protestors who are members of BLM and marching with Christiansfor Social Justice.  But then again, it is not that surprising when weunderstand that the Bible warns us that many will be seduced by falseteaching and godless ideologies.  The Bible is no longer the standardfor many Christians. Social Justice is now the new standard.Christians and pastors are marching and protesting the murder ofGeorge Floyd hand in hand with god-haters?  Christians and Pastors,who have Bibles are doing this.  Why?  Do they really care aboutjustice?   Or have they bought into the false narrative that is beingpushed by Social Justice Warriors who place people into groups of theoppressors and the oppressed?The Social Justice Movement's answer for sin is redistribution ofpower and wealth.  That is why you hear Christian's like Lecrae whosuggest that the solution to sin is the redistribution of power. If weget more black people into positions of power then we can stop racism.Lacrae has just abandoned Biblical Christianity and adopted SocialJustice as the answer for sin.  But Lecrae is not the only one doingthis.  Countless Christians and Pastors are teaching that the answerto racism is redistribution of power. By the way there is not suchthing as racism.  The Bible calls it for what it is, hatred. Justiceis never accomplished by the redistribution of power.  Black peoplehave extremely wicked hearts.  So to replace a white person withextremely wicked hearts with black person who has the same extremelywicked heart will not fix the sin problem.  The same goes for Asiansand Hispanics and all human beings.  Humans have extremely wickedhearts,The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: whocan know it? (Jeremiah 17:9)The answer to injustice, murder, crime, etc., is not rioting,protesting, redistribution of power and wealth, or anything else thatsinful man can come up with.  God provided the answer in the Personand work of Jesus Christ.  The Gospel is the cure for sin.  Did theApostle Paul call for protests when Nero persecuted and oppressed theminority culture of the Roman Empire which happened to be Christians?Did the Christians protest the unjust murder of Peter and Paul?  Orthe thousands of other Christians who were murdered by Rome?  But whathappened when persecution came to them?  They went out preaching theGospel.  Paul even preached to prison guards who were converted.But we live in a different society than that of the Roman Empire.  Sowe can and should fight for more just laws and practices.  And as ofthis very day, I am personally unaware of any unjust laws on the booksthat are targeting minorities.  Why? Because Christians in the pastchallenged those unjust laws and put an end to them.  President Trumprecently signed a prison reform act to correct some of the problemswith our penal system.  And there is nothing wrong with fighting forLaw Enforcement reform acts that might address some issues as well.But, if you think that is going to stop racism, police brutality,violence, and injustice you are greatly mistaken.  More cops will killunarmed black and white men, more blacks will murder other blacks,more whites will murder other whites, more children will be sold intosex trafficking, more women will be raped, more husbands will beattheir wives, and yes, even more wives will physically abuse theirhusbands, more men and women will commit sexual sin, and a higherpercentage of black babies will continue to be murdered in the womb.Many pastors and Christians have lost their way. They are jumping onthe Social Justice bandwagon without and regard as to what the goal ofSocial Justice really is.  It is seeking to address sins andgrievances through a godless, anti-God, anti-Biblical worldview.  AndChristian Denominations and Organizations like T4G, TGC, ERLC, SBC,9Marks, and SBTS are jumping on this bandwagon and leading manypastors and churches astray.The Gospel is of First Importance.  But sadly, those who use this astheir slogan, have traded it in for Social Justice. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Proverbs 18:17Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly. Proverbs 14:29The fruit of the Spirit is...self-control - Galatians 5:22 8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things Philippians 4:8Specific to Gossip and LiesYou shall not spread a false report. You shall not join hands with a wicked man to be a malicious witness. Exodus 23:1There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers. Proverbs 6:16-19With his mouth the godless man would destroy his neighbor, but by knowledge the righteous are delivered. Proverbs 11:9A dishonest man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends. Proverbs 16:28Whoever goes about slandering reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with a simple babbler. Proverbs 20:19Titus 3:1-10 - 1Remind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work, 2 to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people.3 For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another. 4 But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.8 The saying is trustworthy, and I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works. These things are excellent and profitable for people. 9 But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, dissensions, and quarrels about the law, for they are unprofitable and worthless. 10 As for a person who stirs up division, after warning him once and then twice, have nothing more to do with him, 11 knowing that such a person is warped and sinful; he is self-condemned.Links ReferencedSection 230 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996.
