What happens when pastors and politicians stay silent? The culture fills the void.

Summary In this podcast episode, Vince Miller and his son-in-law, Minnesota State Rep. Elliott Engen, discuss the dangers of silence in both the church and the political arena. They unpack how cultural drift on issues like gender ideology, abortion, and education has accelerated because believers have stayed quiet. Together, they call men and Christians everywhere to break the silence, speak truth with grace, and lead courageously in their families, churches, workplaces, and communities.

Reflection & Small Group Questions 1. Why do you think so many pastors and politicians have remained silent on cultural issues? 2. In your own life, where have you been tempted to stay silent instead of speaking truth? 3. Elliott mentioned toxic empathy—how do you see this playing out in today’s culture? 4. What practical steps can you take to articulate biblical truth with love in your workplace or home? 5. How does silence lead to complicity in both politics and faith? 6. What did you think about the phrase: “If you’re not doing politics, politics is doing you”? 7. What “small untruths” in your own life need to be confronted before tackling bigger cultural battles? 8. What hill are you personally willing to die on for your faith? 9. How can Christians model courage without being needlessly combative? 10. What does it mean for you to “live all in for Him who lived all in for you” in this cultural moment?
