Episode 13: Boycotting as a Christian: Strategies for Taking a Stand in a Cancel Culture

To boycott or not to boycott?

In a world filled with conflicting values and moral messages, how can Christians navigate the challenges of boycotts and cancel culture? Join us as we delve into the complexities of standing firm in our faith while facing pressure from society. But beware, the choices we make may have consequences that leave us questioning our convictions.

In this episode, you will be able to:

- Evaluate the hurdles Christians face while boycotting and navigating the rigid waves of cancel culture.

- Scrutinize the dichotomy between societal values and moral frameworks.

- Glean insights into the effects of wide-spread LGBTQ+ promotion on children and future generations.

- Comprehend the business implications for organizations wading into politically charged and controversial waters.

- Appreciate the necessity of conveying truth with grace and understanding on digital media.

Quotes from this episode:

"As Christians, our response to a world that tells us what to do and what to think should be to step up and be the light of the world."

"Navigating cancel culture and boycotting is challenging, but as Christians, we must seek guidance from the Bible and follow the example of Jesus."

"Instead of hating others' sin, let's focus on hating our own sin and pointing others to Jesus."
