Before conflicting trips, speaking engagments and life separated our dynamic podcast duo, we were two parts into a conversation about the social, cultural and political philosophy of conservatism as it pertains to the worldview and principles of Christianity. Now, finally both in the same room once again, Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters finish the conversation. Confused, go back and check out The Chain parts 1 and 2!

Nathan Winters and Pastor Galen are back in studio, speaking from the Christian viewpoint on the Bud Light debacle, local school library decisions, and ways people are finally pushing back as issues cross their personal line of "too far."

This episode was meant to be a primer for our Cheyenne Hills series, "Knowing God" based on the book by J. I. Packer, but our producer was at a conference last week so we're hoping better late than never! Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters are joined by that same producer in unpacking some of the bigger ideas in this theological opus, which has sold more than 1.5 million copies worldwide. Many of your favorite preachers of the late 20th and early 21st century likely have a copy of Packer's work somewhere on their shelf, but it's so epic in its breadth of subject matter, we hoped to tap into it a little to help prepare listeners for this series.

Who was the preacher you heard growing up who moved you and really got the Word to stick to your heart? Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters talk about their faith heroes, and remember Charles Stanley, who passed away on April 18, 2023.

The movie and book titled "Jesus Revolution" has gained a lot of positive feedback from the Christian community, and reminds us there are ways to speak to the parts of each generation who aren't getting the Gospel message. Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters ask the question, "Who are the 'hippies' of our generation, and how can we reach them where they're at?"

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The Word came to earth as flesh and blood to live the perfect, sinless life... but what does that mean? How do we wrap our heads around a being born of the Virgin Mary and the Holy Spirit, being both fully God and fully man? Nathan Winters joins Pastor Galen Huck "nerd out" and tackle this deep theological subject to help us all remember the enormity of what Easter really means to humankind. This podcast was originally recorded to air at the end of April, but we decided to frontload it for you to consider during this amazing week.

With our Easter series featuring some heavy subject matter, our staff got into some discussion about how we as humans deal with events or subjects that trigger responses we don't like, and how we can help ourselves deal with them. So with Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters both traveling, we got our staff counselor Dr. Richard Berry and producer Kasey Orr together to talk through how our buttons get pushed, and productive ways we can rewire them in a positive way. We mix the psychological with the theological in this two part series.

The book of James emphasizes the importance of confessing our shortcomings to one another, so it's no wonder many great revivals have been sparked by this same act of trust, love and fellowship. Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters continue their discussion of the spiritual battle in the unseen realm, and how James chapter 5 can be the key to standing stronger together through our faith.

Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters discuss the "unseen realm" and the importance of scriptural tools like Ephesians 6 in arming ourselves against the evils of the world we inhabit, and the humility required to properly utilize those tools.

To catch the sermons of our Shock Waves series, subscribe to our channel and check out all of our past podcasts and services!

Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters aren't the first to point out that those who fail to learn from their history are doomed to repeat it, but in this episode they discuss some of the ways our current culture and country are struggling in this area, and how we Christians should be combatting it.

Money and education have a complicated relationship on many levels. In elementary education, does money go to schools or follow the child? If we spend $300 billion to pay off college debt, will tuitions not just rise and create the next generation under the same debt waiting to be paid again? And in this complex feeding back and forth, where does the Christian world-view fit? Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters tackle these questions in this week's episode.

Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters discuss some of the heavy lifts Christians face when dealing with concepts popular culture seems to cling to without really "doing the math."

In the Bible as well as human culture and history, one can find patterns. Some of these patterns form cycles, and in today's episode Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters look deeper into what we learn from our history, and how we prepare as Christians to face the future.

If someone told you if you didn't accept their ideology, they'd take food away from your children, would that seem like bullying — if not downright criminal? Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters discuss actions being undertaken by the U.S. federal government and the responsibility of Christians — especially Christian public servants — to stand up and defend what is right.

As children, many of us succumbed to curiosity and took one of our toys apart to see how it worked. Without the right skills, however, we neither learned more about the toy, nor could we put it back together again. Critical deconstructionism can come across the same way. Of course, sometimes a child's only goal is to tear something apart. Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters discuss how these concepts show up in our modern culture, as well as their nefarious origins.

While the U.S. Supreme Court rolled out a number of landmark decisions protecting religious freedom, other agendas are being pushed forward using a new kind of bullying. It's called "cry shaming," a way of claiming victimhood and using this to push others into changing their behaviors or beliefs. Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters look at examples happening right here in Wyoming, and why they feel the momentum of SCOTUS decisions will help us level the playing field at least a little.

The U.S. Supreme Court has come under scrutiny for recent decisions, but this one concerning school funding in the Northeast isn't seeing as many headlines. A decision that can pave the way for independent Christian schools across the country. Want the scoop, listen to Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters in today's episode.

It's frustrating to have someone vehemently demand tolerance, when compliance is really all they'll accept. As Christians, we're called to stand for the Truth we've been given to steward, but to do so with love, mercy and open-heartedness. So what do we do when surrounded by the flags of those who would have us capitulate, or surrender entirely, our beliefs? Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters tackle a tough topic in the month of June.

How old is "old enough"? To vote, to drink alcohol, to join the army, or have permanent body-altering surgery? What about old enough to accept Christ? The age of majority, age of accountability, legal adulthood, all terms from different schools of thought and legal systems endeavoring to draw a clear line beyond which we can be considered capable not just of making decisions, but making wise decisions. Join Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters as they seek to answer this question from a Christian perspective next to a culture that can't seem to make up its mind.

Galen wanted to know what happens to politicians when they get into office and start waffling on issues? How do we as Christians gauge the people we're voting for and find those who will actually support legislation in line with the Christian world view? Luckily, Nathan Winters has experience seeing how the sausage is made, and offers insight. And there's a story about Davey Crockett, so there's no excuse for anyone of voting age to miss this episode.

Tragedy like that in Uvalde, Texas, is one of the more difficult things to see through a Christian lens, but when we do we see a different root of the problem than others might. Join Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters as they look at the escalating violence of our day. [NOTE: At the time of this recording, information was still coming out about the shooting.]

You might finally understand why people in our culture seem so angry, sad and lost when you get to know the philosophical path that lead to the modern — or rather post-modern — mindset. This same path has affected Christianity, with the Gospel being suppressed in parts hoping to make itself more "likeable." Join Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters in learning more about the ideas that might help us understand the lost culture in which we live.

On May 14, 2022, our podcast guest Nathan Winters gave a speech to the Men's Breakfast at Cheyenne Hills Church. We were so struck by his presentation, we asked him permission to share it with our podcast audience. We hope you find it as enlightening and inspirational as we did.

Science is the study of the way the natural world works, and Paul tell us God reveals himself through the world He created. So why do so many people think true science is at odds with Faith? When did the Truth both seek become different? It may have something to do with a culture that tells us we all have our own truth. Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters discuss the pursuit of the Truth, and how we as Christians have obstacles thrown at us disguised as modern science or wisdom. Also, you'll need to know this word: Perspicuity - plain to the understanding, especially because of clarity and precision of presentation (Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary)

The leak reported by Politico from the Supreme Court shook the country this week. What does it mean? What happens next? Why was it leaked? Did it do the damage presumably intended? Join Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters as they explore the implications of the reportedly leaked document, and how Wyoming is already prepared to deal with it.

Ecclesiastes tells us there is, indeed, "a time for war."(Ecc. 3:8) But what does that look like? When is war ethically or morally justified? Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters take on this challenging question facing Christians in the present world climate.

It's a common cultural idea that we each have our own truth. Truth specific to us as individuals based on how we feel. Christians immediately spot the error here, but sometimes it takes the rest of the world longer to figure it out. Like when a biological male claiming to be a female — according to their personal truth — suddenly starts swallowing up all the trophies in women's swimming. Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters talk about ways Christians can stand their ground, in love, next actual Truth, and counteract the hurtful stereotypes non-Christians have of us.

Pastor Galen returns from Florida, where he saw a hometown star exhibit some of the faith David talks about in Psalm 16. Nathan Winters joins Pastor Galen as they take a step away from politics and speak of the beauty of recognizing what God has given you, and the dangers of treating your relationship with Him as a transaction.

Two million Ukrainians have crossed over into Poland for refuge as Russia continues their attack. Meanwhile, some Christian pastors and priests stay behind to minister, and flight after flight of Ukrainian Jews flee to Israel.

Do you know what a pocket veto is? That's how a bill to secure equality in Wyoming girl's high school sports was thwarted. As we follow updates on bills moving through the Wyoming State Legislature that directly affect Christian life, we're reminded it's important to make changes in our own back yard, first. Many of us get up-in-arms in anger or dismay at the national news, while elections are held and laws are passed in our own state that directly affect the Christian lifestyle and the future of our families. Join us in todays episode as Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters walk through some of these important pieces of legislation and their fates.
