Faith, Fear, & Free Speech: What the Bible Says About Justice in 2025?

They took her in an unmarked SUV. No charges. No trial. Just a student with a message the government didn’t want broadcast. Rumeysa Ozturk’s detainment is more than one isolated case—it’s a warning flare in an America drifting toward silence, surveillance, and sanitized faith. This week, we unpack the dangerous rise of Project 2025, the gutting of DEI, and the weaponization of immigration law—all backed by voices claiming to speak for “Christian values.” But what does the Gospel actually call us to do? We also confront a question every church should be asking: If the Church isn’t standing up for justice today, why would young people show up for Sabbath School tomorrow? This episode doesn’t just expose injustice—it offers real strategies to reignite passion, relevance, and engagement among our youth. If your faith community is losing its voice—and its next generation—this is the episode you can’t afford to miss.
