Next Level Discipleship: Recent Episodes
Lori Morrow
Does your newsfeed stress you out? Are you getting a case of cultural whiplash just trying to keep up with constantly changing perspectives? And where does your faith fit into the equation? The Next Level Discipleship podcast urgently & thoughtfully equips the Jesus-loving woman to connect the dots between her faith and real life. By using blog articles, YouTube videos, podcasts, book recommendations and other resources, Lori helps you see into today's culture with Biblical Worldview eyes, so that you can grow your faith, find your voice, and maximize your impact for the Kingdom of God in an increasingly godless world.
I think the single most important thing you can do as a Jesus following woman today, is to become effective at reviving the Christian worldview among the secular people in your sphere of influence, because wokeness is actually a counterfeit gospel. Wokeness is calling for political revolution when what we really need is spiritual revival. And that’s where you come in. The world needs you & your redeemed voice now more than ever because the things you believe in have the ability to recreate the common ground we need. This episode is all about equipping you to become an agent of Revival by showing you what wokeness looks like on paper, why it can’t deliver on its promises of healing and unity across boundaries and the creation of a more just and fair society -- and why the Biblical worldview can.
Young people between the ages of 16-21 will be voting in their first presidential election in just 2 years, AND this age group is more secular than any age group before it, which is significant, because the secular worldview really can’t compare to the Christian worldview in terms of the kinds of politics it produces.
Particularly when it comes to the issue of rights. That’s the topic for today…how God-given rights are much better than government given rights. These need to be made aware of the differences between these two ways of looking at political rights, but they probably aren’t going to be wiling to go to church and let the pastor tell them.
So you’re going to have to do it.
We will talk about a Facebook comment made the day the Dobbs decision came down, and we will consult the Declaration of Independence to see what it has to say about our rights and where they came from.
Plus we will take a look at what happens when we attempt to view humanity as having something less than 'divine value' as Jordan Peterson calls it, and how that affects the way human rights are shaped.
Ultimately, its the Christian Worldview which bestows the highest respects to individual human life, and subsequently shapes human rights consistently with individual human value. When we replace the Christian Worldview with a secular one, we will have laid the groundwork for eroding the rights which are so desperately needed in a well-functioning society.
If you can help the young people in your life see this clearly, you will help contribute to slowing down the secular march we've been on, and to healing the political divide which flows from it.
If you are a Jesus-following woman who wants to be used by God to build a lifelong faith in the Next Generation (which is navigating the most faithless age in our nation's history) then this podcast is for you.
The Next Level Discipleship podcast is designed to compare & contrast the secular worldview against the Biblical worldview through the analysis of blogposts, YouTube videos, books, and other resources so that you can communicate the truth and goodness of the Biblical worldview to the children and young adults in your life that you care about most.
Statistics are telling us that the Next Generation is more secular than any age cohort before it. If we want to impact that generation for Christ, we need to be aware of 7 obstacles which will present themselves as we do the work God is asking us to do.
This episode equips you to have fruitful conversations by equipping you with the skills you need to recognize and overcome the biggest obstacles we face in bringing the Next Generation up in Christ.
