In this conversation, Jason sits down with Dom Ruso, pastor of The 180 Church in Greater Montreal, to talk about the joys and challenges of church planting in one of the most secularized contexts in North America.Dom shares openly about his discernment journey, how God drew him and his wife back to Quebec despite initial resistance, and what it has looked like to build a church community from scratch in a region where many are spiritually open but institutionally skeptical.Jason and Dom explore themes that matter deeply to pastors today:Dom's honest wrestle with returning to Quebec, and the slow ways God confirmed the call to plant a church there.The unique dynamics of Quebec culture and what it means to preach the Bible in ways that connect with people who carry wounds from religion or who feel indifferent toward Christianity.How congregations can embody health and unity in a divided cultural landscape, and what Canada's regional differences can teach us about God's work across the country.Why it's not enough to “tell” people what the Bible says, but to invite them into its story, and how plot points of Scripture resonate with modern longings for justice, meaning, and identity.Why it matters to recover a distinct vision of pastoral calling, and how the overlap with modern leadership and coaching culture can blur what shepherding the people of God really means.Dom also talks about his new book, The Bible for a Shifting Secular Age, which brings together his pastoral experience and academic work to offer handles for understanding secularism and fresh ways of presenting Scripture today.Show Notes

In her talk at Living Well at the End of a World, Sarah Shortall examines the experiences of French Jesuit priests during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a period marked by anti-clericalism and exile, and how these crises led to a revolution in Catholic theology known as the Nouvelle Théologie. Forced out of France, the Jesuits found themselves on the island of Jersey, where they rethought the Church's role in public life within a modern, secular context, with key figures like Henri de Lubac and Gaston Fessard leading a “spiritual resistance" to fascism during World War II. Shortall draws parallels to our current moment of transition, suggesting we can learn from the French Jesuits' ability to adapt to modernity and maintain a critical distance from political entanglements.The Morningside Institute hosted a two-day conference on April 4–5, 2025. On its first day, the conference examined some of the radical changes that Western societies are undergoing. On the second day, we explored in greater detail historical examples of how communities have navigated periods of intense cultural change and even devastation.

Although the Catholic teaching on the Transcendentals, Truth, Beauty, Goodness, and Unity, does not officially include Simplicity, finding God in this ever increasingly secular world can be aided if we simplify our lives and humble ourselves.

In a world that has become more and more atheistic, agnostic, and secular, the awareness of God should be at the forefront of all evangelistic and missionary efforts. In this fourth episode of a 4 part series on the Catholic teaching of the Transcendentals, we discuss finding God through unity.

In this sermon titled "Give The World Her Song," Greg at Venice Presbyterian Church focuses on the deep connection between music and Christian faith. Speaking from the pulpit, he reflects on his last visit a year and a half ago and recent events like a severe weather-induced power outage at his home in Seattle. Greg mentions his new book collaboration, "As the Deer," with artist Greg Beecham. Using Psalm 137 as a foundation, Greg highlights the historical significance of song in worship, noting that Christianity uniquely emphasizes music compared to other religions. He shares a personal story from Thanksgiving 1996 about meeting Chris, connecting it to the importance of music in building relationships and understanding. Greg addresses the challenges modern Christian communities face, suggesting they view themselves as living in exile and adapt their message to resonate in a secular world, citing "Postcards from Babylon" by Brian Zahnd. He emphasizes the need to use cultural and spiritual references to communicate effectively today. A poignant anecdote demonstrates how music can foster connections in even the most challenging settings. Greg concludes with a call to action for Christians to live out their faith through love, acceptance, and song. He closes with the Quaker hymn "How Can I Keep from Singing," reinforcing the joy and necessity of sharing one's faith. In summary, Greg's sermon encourages Christians to use music as a vital expression of their faith, bringing light and hope to a world that often feels like exile.

In this episode of The Biblical Anarchy Podcast, host Jacob Winograd explores the concept of Christ as King and how Christians should view and engage with earthly governments. Delving into Romans 13, Jacob emphasizes a biblical understanding that respects authority while critically examining its limits. He argues against eisegesis (the act of reading personal ideas into the scripture), advocating instead for a thorough exegesis, or drawing out of the text's true meaning. Jacob underscores the importance of loyalty to Christ's kingdom above all, suggesting that Christians can support government structures only to the extent that they align with God's moral decrees.Jacob discusses historical examples, such as the apostles' defiance of Roman laws that contradicted God's commands, and emphasizes the importance of resisting unjust authorities when they overstep biblical boundaries. He urges Christians to focus on what the Bible genuinely teaches about human authority, encouraging a thoughtful approach that keeps faith at the center of political involvement. Throughout the episode, he stresses that while governments are instituted by God, they are fallible and must not be blindly obeyed when their actions conflict with scriptural principles.Full Shownotes Here: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-80-christ-is-king-navigating-loyalty-in-a-depraved-secular-world/The Biblical Anarchy Podcast is part of the Christians For Liberty Network, a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute.

In this powerful discussion, we delve into the sacred bonds of marriage and the importance of maintaining strong boundaries. While no specific scripture is directly quoted, the message strongly echoes the principles found in Ephesians 5:33, which calls husbands to love their wives and wives to respect their husbands. We explore how seemingly innocent interactions can potentially dishonor our spouses and compromise the sanctity of our marital covenant. The conversation challenges us to examine our own behavior, asking whether we're truly putting our spouse first in all situations. Are we, perhaps unknowingly, inviting temptation or disrespecting our partner through our actions? This message reminds us that building trust takes time and consistent effort, but it's crucial for a thriving, God-centered marriage. As believers, we're called to be different from the world, setting an example of faithfulness and mutual respect in our relationships. -- Have a question about relationships?
