Week 2: Politicized Church

September 22, 2021 • Mike White

Differences of opinion when it comes to politics, race, sexuality, and other hot-button topics threaten to pierce and divide the church; some would say they already have. This is not as God intended things to be. He constructed the church to be separate from the culture, yet welcoming. We’re set apart from culture, yet we welcome in newcomers and send them out to impact culture.

In Week 2 of Hot Topics, Mike examined how politics have affected the church and suggests how we should respond.

Week 1: Cancel Culture

September 15, 2021 • Mike White

In recent years, cancel culture has gained plenty of steam in public discourse. This form of ostracism occurs when someone is called out – often on social media – for speaking or acting in a questionable manner, and the public at large chooses to shun or discredit the person for a period of time, and possibly forever. Dozens of celebrities, athletes, and brands have been “canceled” recently, and the debate over whether cancel culture holds people accountable or censors free speech and casts unfair judgment is hotly debated. In Week 1 of Hot Topics, Mike White examined the positives and negatives of cancel culture.
