A Time to Reconcile . . . and Happy Christmas!
BreakPoint's Weekly News Roundup from a Christian Worldview Perspective
12/18/20
John Stonestreet Shane Morris
John Stonestreet and Shane Morris talk about the turmoil of 2020 and how politics, the election, COVID, economic stress, and even face masks have caused division within families, the nation, and even the body of Christ. How do we reconcile with one another? After all, Jesus wasn’t merely suggesting we leave our “gift at the altar” and be reconciled with our brother. It was a command.
Also on today’s episode, two interesting reports: Pew Research shows that restrictions on religion across the globe are at an all-time high. Meanwhile, Gallup released a survey that show while Americans’ mental health ratings have “sunk to a new low,” on group of Americans is doing much better than others: frequent churchgoers.
They wrap up the episode with their Christmas movie recommendations. Listen in as Shane waxes theologically rhapsodic over “It’s a Wonderful Life,” while John weighs in on every movie version of “A Christmas Carol.”
