TNMU #170: Confronting Cancel Culture with Alon Auguste (Part 1)

Aug 6, 2021

Cancel culture is a topic that is current and deserves to be addressed. Bringing back a familiar voice is a good way to do it. Alon Auguste joins us again to do what he always does—speak into current culture with a timely and timeless message. It’s almost a guarantee that you haven’t engaged with this topic in the way Alon does in this episode. Which is why no matter your understanding of this cultural issue, this episode is a must listen.

Expanded Notes:

• Cancel culture is exiling someone for their actions or statements, regardless of when it happened
• • The desire for justice is admirable, the method is flawed
  • It reduces people to their very worst moment
• Cancel culture is not a solution for utopia
• What we really need is Jesus and his kingdom
• The problems with cancel culture runs deeper than differences in political or economic structures; it’s about how we’re treating each other as fellow humans
• Teaching a better way starts by us (fathers) modeling it for our boys
• What if we taught our boys to see more, to see hope and build hope in those around them?
