    How Should Christians Engage the Public Square in a Pluralistic World? | 9/27/25 | ATT#219
    Sep 27 2025
    Join us for a conversation exploring the intersection of Christianity, religious liberty, and the public square with Dr. Andrew T. Walker, professor of ethics and public theology at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. In this thought-provoking discussion, we tackle several pressing questions: How should Christians navigate religious pluralism in America’s constitutional republic? What does the Bible say about freedom of religion? And how do we address cultural challenges like the “Muslim problem” and Christian nationalism while preserving the American experiment? From the Founding Fathers’ vision to today’s Jesus-centered public discourse, this conversation offers biblical insights and practical wisdom for engaging in today’s complex cultural moment. Time stamps of key moments: 4:06 Introduction to guest's background and research focus. 7:25 Theological framework for religious liberty. 11:51 Founders' views on religion and the public square. 22:11 What do you think the Founding Fathers would think about recent "Jesus talk" in government? 37:04 How should we address the cultural challenges from Islam and pluralism? 50:32 Perspectives on Christian nationalism and its implications.

    Back-to-School Alert: How SEL and Mental Health Screenings Impact Your Kids | 8/16/25 | ATT #215
    Aug 16 2025
    Schools are changing fast—far beyond reading, writing, and arithmetic. Dive into a thought-provoking discussion on the challenges parents face in navigating today’s public school system, including the impact of Social Emotional Learning (SEL), the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) model, and controversial policies like California’s AB495 and Illinois’ mandatory mental health screenings for grades 3-12 starting in the 2027-28 school year. As Christian parents, we’re called to steward our children’s hearts and minds (Deut. 6:6–9; Prov. 1:8; Eph. 6:4). Learn how these initiatives, often tied to equity, critical theory, and data collection, may affect your child’s education and worldview, and explore practical ways to stay informed and protect parental rights. Our aim isn’t panic—it’s clarity, so you can make wise, prayerful decisions for your family.
