Season 8 Episode 46
In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Dr. Joe Boot and Ezra Fellow Rev. Dr. Aaron Rock delve into the contemporary crises facing the Western family structure, focusing on marriage, masculinity, and the impact of feminism on society. They discuss the implications of abandoning biblical principles for family and male leadership, the resulting societal and economic challenges, and explore ways the church and Christian families can respond to these issues. They emphasize the importance of rediscovering a godly vision for manhood and family, the role of Christians in influencing culture through local politics, and addressing systemic issues to foster cultural reformation.
