Welcome to Rebuild. Here we explore the pillars that hold up the foundation of Christianity and western civilization. We examine where and how these pillars are crumbling, and we suggest ways that we can rebuild them. We release two episodes per week. The first is an interview with a guest who answers questions about a particular pillar of society. The second episode is a reaction to the interview where Michael and Bradley tease out implications and offer commentary.

111B - Subdue a sphere of influence by engaging politically and culturally (followup to Levi Minderhoud)

SUMMARY:

This is our follow-up discussion from our interview with Levi Minderhoud. We discuss the principle that we can expand the kingdom of God by declaring his truth (the law) and his gospel in our own small areas of influence. This can include school districts, libraries, and towns. It is loving and honors God when we advocate for his truth and standards. As we do this, we partially carry out the mandate to subdue the earth.

GUEST INFORMATION:

Levi Minderhoud joined the staff of the Association for Reformed Political Action (ARPA) Canada in June of 2019 as ARPA’s first British Columbia Manager. He is dedicated to raising the political activity and knowledge of Reformed Christians in British Columbia, bringing a Christian worldview to members of the British Columbia legislature, and developing public policy from a Christian perspective.
Prior to joining ARPA on a full-time basis, Levi already had political and policy experience elsewhere. He has a bachelor’s degree from Dordt University in political science, business, and economics and a Master’s of Public Policy degree from Simon Fraser University. He interned with a Member of Parliament (the late MP Mark Warawa) and within a federal department (Transport Canada). He also assisted in leading a local ARPA chapter (ARPA Fraser Valley East).
Levi and his wife Jillian currently live in Abbotsford, British Columbia.

OUTLINE OF OUR DISCUSSION

INTRO: What are we striving for? - avoid fatalism

Holy optimism
What is the right tone/approach?
Christians need to repent if they have embraced the sins that are common in culture, but then we need to move forward with confidence.
