This week on Kingdom Citizenship we dive deep into the word "radical" and its connection to faith. We explore its historical meaning and how it's been used throughout Christian history to vilify true Christians.

Many believers have been painted with the word "radical" in the pejorative sense. We can feel beat down, misunderstood, or offended by this labeling. However, the word is extremely positive. Dan Avery helps us "decode" the agenda behind the labelization often thrown around and he teaches us to "code switch." Listen through how to change the conversation from manipulation to feeling whole while getting back to primal truth.

History shows us a different kind of "radical Christian" – one who wasn't afraid to challenge the status quo and live according to their beliefs. We discuss the tension that arose when these "radical" Christians emerged, and how the established Church attempted to silence them.

Lastly we’re blessed to hear about Dan’s work as a biblical translator and his collaboration to write a modern day Bible with translations based on the original Greek and Hebrew.

This week we delve deep into the intriguing world of Dualism and its intersections with Anabaptist beliefs. We're joined by Chester Weaver, a passionate Anabaptist educator with a profound interest in Dualism. Journey with us as we uncover the historical roots of Dualism and its significance within Anabaptist ideology.

Discover why Dualism remains one of Chester's favorite topics and explore the pivotal role it played during the Reformation era. We discuss how dualism has infested what is thought of as church and corrupted the message of Christ and the ability to stand before a culture as a contrast to it. Chester Weaver shows how worldly ideas infiltrated the church early on and have continued to effect the church; even through the Reformation. If salvation does result in continued sanctifying in a person's life, where it plays into a group dynamic; such is the definition of a headtrip. This is NOT God's design. If we are going to stand in righteousness, prepare to be abused by all the people posing their religious ideals who are compromised. Headtrips do not deal with problems. They hide them and make you try and tolerate their problems.

Join us as we seek answers to the crucial question: How can we purge Dualism from our lives? Tune in for an enriching discussion filled with wisdom, historical context, and practical insights.
