Cloud of Witnesses Radio

Prepare to be challenged and inspired as we tackle the complex dance of faith within the arena of cultural conflicts. Our special guests, John, Priscilla, Robert, Jeremy, and Veronica shed light on how Orthodox teachings of love and forgiveness can be executed in a society often marked by an 'us versus them' mentality. We dissect the provocations within Tom MacDonald's "Facts" featuring the unlikely rapper Ben Shapiro—a music video that has stirred up significant debate by questioning progressive ideologies and giving voice to the silent majority.
Our panelists don't hold back as they weigh in on the effectiveness of Ben Shapiro's foray into rap and its potential to disrupt societal norms. We explore whether such media can serve as a modern-day 'holy fool,' awakening society through discomfort and prompting essential dialogue. This episode doesn't just observe the ripples from the outside; we immerse ourselves in the heart of the cultural wars and assess the role of Christians in these charged debates, contemplating how we might wield art and music as tools for reflection and challenge.
Finally, we confront the paradox of division within dialogue, pondering over how to maintain unity while standing firm in truth, a balancing act that Christ modeled exquisitely. In an age where cancel culture casts long shadows over the landscapes of forgiveness and understanding, we deliberate over our responsibility as Christians to navigate these treacherous waters. Will our discourse become a casualty to the cultural skirmishes or can we find a way to uphold truth while nurturing communion? Join us for a journey deep into the essence of faith, culture, and the art of conversation.

Thank you for journeying w/ the Saints with us!
