In the wake of the Charlie Kirk moment, everyday believers are stepping up online, at city halls, in men’s groups, and at home. This show exists to equip Christians with Clarity + Courage.
In this episode of Leadership on Purpose, we map 12 practical responses we’re seeing from Christians right now how to speak in the public square, organize locally, disciple the next generation, and push back on false narratives with high truth and high grace.
I’m joined by Timmy Bauer (author & entrepreneur) and Pastor Kenny Ortiz to unpack the cultural shifts we’re living through. We talk courage, conviction, and leadership and how to live your faith in the open when the costs are real.
Key Topics:
• Speaking up in the public square (online + in person) and why courage is contagious
• Local organization that actually changes things (school boards, councils, candidates)
• Discipleship in practice: youth mentorship, men’s groups, and high-bandwidth conversations
• What we’re for: supporting pro-family ministries and leading your family with vision
• Engaging false narratives with high truth & high grace (and why pastors must not go silent)
• Forming convictions: study history & civics, return to Scripture, and build a life of prayer
