Where is the line between inclusion and endorsement?

In this episode of Uncommon Sense in Current Times, I break down the controversy surrounding the Nashville Predators' 11th Annual Pride Night—and the deeper cultural and spiritual questions it raises.

This isn't just about one event. It's about how culture shifts over time, how language shapes meaning and how Christians respond when values and public platforms collide.

We explore the difference between welcoming people and celebrating ideologies and why that distinction matters more than ever.

Is what we're hearing about Israel actually true?

In this episode of Uncommon Sense in Current Times, Daniel Cohen—journalist, Israeli resident, and Jewish follower of Jesus—joins me to unpack the growing gap between media narratives and on-the-ground reality in Israel.

From the "apartheid" accusation to the deeper theological questions surrounding Israel's role in history, this conversation cuts through noise and the misinformation from voices, like Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson, to get us back to truth.

We also explore why this issue isn't just political—it's deeply spiritual—and why Christians must move from passive opinions to informed, prepared boldness.
