Culture & Christianity: The Allen Jackson Podcast

What happens when Christians choose to engage the culture instead of retreating from it? This special episode looks back at highlights from the 2025 Culture & Christianity Conference, featuring Pastor Allen Jackson, Rob McCoy, Brandon Tatum, Pastor Gary Hamrick, and Dr. Neil T. Anderson. Revisit some of the most powerful moments and thought-provoking messages from these speakers as they challenged Christians to stand firm and live out their faith in the culture. Watch the highlights from last year’s conference and hear the messages that continue to matter today.

"What does it look like to live out your faith boldly when the culture around you rejects biblical truth? In this special re-air of Culture & Christianity, Pastor Allen revisits his conversation with Charlie Kirk, a courageous young man who was willing to take his biblical worldview into the public square and engage anyone willing to have the conversation.

As we remember Charlie one year after his death, Pastor Allen reflects on Charlie’s courage and the importance of Christians refusing to retreat from the places God has called them. Our faith belongs in the public square—in our workplaces, schools, communities, churches, and every sphere of influence God gives us.

May this conversation remind us that we don't have to be belligerent or violent to be bold. We simply need the courage to say yes to God and faithfully carry the hope and truth of Jesus into our generation."

The spiritual world is real—and ignoring it doesn’t make us immune to its influence. In this episode of Culture & Christianity, Pastor Allen Jackson explores angels, demons, the Holy Spirit, spiritual warfare, and the unseen forces shaping our lives. He explains how to recognize the difference between conviction and condemnation and why practicing “spiritual hygiene” matters. Rather than living in fear, we’re called to know God’s Word, recognize His boundaries, and walk closely with the Holy Spirit.

The spiritual battle around us is real—but are Christians prepared to recognize it? Journalist and author Billy Hallowell joins Pastor Allen Jackson to discuss angels, demons, spiritual warfare, and why Christians have become hesitant to talk about the supernatural. They explore how secularism has influenced the Church, why believers must be grounded in Scripture and truth, and how we can seek God’s help when facing spiritual opposition. Plus, Billy shares what he learned while producing his documentary series Investigating the Supernatural: Angels and Demons.

What happens when an Israeli family watches America change and recognizes things they never thought they would see in the West? In this episode of Culture & Christianity, Pastor Allen sits down with Israeli residents and friends Adam and Gili Focht to discuss what it’s really like to live in Israel, the growing hostility toward Jews and Israel, and why Christians need to understand the spiritual significance of what is happening. They also talk about their journey to faith in Jesus, Israel’s military culture, and the changing attitudes toward Jewish believers in the Israeli Army. Their perspective offers an important reminder of why Christians must know the truth about Israel, stand with the Jewish people, and remain faithful to God’s Word.
