CrossPolitic Show
Hosted by Pastor Toby, Choc Knox, Waterboy · EN
CrossPolitic (Christ over politics) mixes the taboo formula of faith, culture, and politics to bring the clarity of the gospel into muddle America. We are a community of Christians who desire to see the Lordship of Christ in every corner of our culture, reigning over every politician, and changing every individual for our good and His glory. Our hosts are pastors, deacons, and filmmakers, who long to see our fallen and broken nation recognize Jesus as our redeemer. Our hosts have interviewed notable presidential candidates (such as Senator Ted Cruz and Dr. Ben Carson), written books, preach the Gospel, make films, and utilize every avenue possible to declare the gospel of our Lord to the whole world.

Transcribe →Why Gambling Is Gay
Apr 1400:28:32Tap to summarizeThe internet didn’t invent sin, but it did put it in your pocket. Porn and online gambling exploded together. Same covetousness. Same liturgy. Gambling is gay economics. Fruitless risk without work. Legalized covetousness and theft, packaged as entertainment. The house always wins. The system is hard‑wired to strip wealth from fools. Our fathers banned gaming houses, disciplined gamblers, and called it theft in public. We legalized it. Lotteries as “voluntary taxation.” Casinos as “jobs.” Sports betting in every game break. Bankruptcies. Broken marriages. Domestic violence. Addiction. Suicide. A slot machine in every pocket. A nation catechized into random luck instead of providence. Chance instead of covenant. Gambling is economic sodomy. It does not build homes. It does not strengthen families. It does not bless nations. It trains men to seek gain without work. Now the question is: How does a nation crawl out of such a deep pit?

Transcribe →How The SBC Got Played
Mar 1800:41:57Tap to summarizeJuly 23, 2019. Founders Ministry drops a documentary trailer that flashes a blurred silhouette for just over a second. Nine days later, three board members resign. Not over a scandal. Because they didn't want to be associated with questioning one woman. Four years later, court documents proved the questioning was right. An unlicensed investigation. A lead attorney wearing four hats simultaneously: advocate, editor, advisor, and opposing counsel. $1.05 million to her client. $13 million drained from the largest conservative Protestant denomination in America. This is a story about a five-phase playbook documented by economist Gary North in 1996 for taking over a conservative institution from the inside. With procedure. With moral pressure. With guilt. The SBC followed every step. Phase one: find the moral vulnerability they can't defend. Phase two: make institutional self-defense look like complicity. Phase three: force the procedural surrender. Phase four: use the surrendered weapons. Phase five: inherit everything. Harvard. Yale. Princeton Seminary. The PCUSA. Now the SBC. Same playbook. Every time. The question isn't whether it's coming for your institution. It is. The question is whether your men will stand.
