What happens when the church avoids the most pressing medical and ethical issues of our time?
What happens when pastors fear backlash more than God?
And what happens when Christians unknowingly hand over their health, discernment, and bodily autonomy to the state… instead of Scripture?
Today's episode is the conversation most churches won't have, but desperately need. I'm sitting down with Pastor Jason Garwood, a bold, biblically-grounded voice breaking the silence on:
• vaccines
• medical mandates
• bodily autonomy
• the misuse of "love your neighbor"
• the church's fear-based compliance
• ...And more!
This is a rare conversation — a pastor willing to connect bioethics, discipleship, and the authority of Christ with what we put in our bodies, how we make medical decisions, and how easily the church has absorbed the culture's lies.
His insights will shake your assumptions, strengthen your faith, and call you back to a biblical worldview where God's sovereignty extends over everything, including your health.
