You know, pastors... Some of these guys are spending, you know, 20 to 40 hours a week sometimes preparing message series and things like this. And it sometimes makes it difficult for them to also, you know, read up on critical race theory and queer theory and understand, you know, issues of sovereign nations and these things.

And so I think we're able to fast forward some of that understanding and really help equip them with verbiage and language that they can take to the pulpit to answer these real questions that their people are facing and asking. I love it.

Yeah, you know, there's a thing within Christian theology called sphere sovereignty. And this is something I wrote about in my book, Woke Jesus. And I think it's a very... misunderstood or underrepresented aspect of the Christian faith. And I think a lot of pastors are ignorant to this. When you look at God as the creator, he established a world of order.

He took chaos and he brought order out of that. And this is one of the aspects of the mightiness of our God. And within that, we see authority given to kings and rulers over the nation. We see authority given to fathers and parents over their household and their children. We see authority given to elders over their churches.

And so whenever you have something that tries to usurp authority or the ones who are delegated authority, they have delegated authority over those areas, there's violations. We saw this during COVID when governors are telling churches that they can't sing. Their authority stopped at the church border.

The pastors and the elders, it was their job to dictate and decide what was going to be, you know, what happened within those churches. We have individual sovereignty over ourselves.

We when you know what we have here in America as a representative government, we have the we the people and we have a, you know, a president, the executive branch, and we have a right, I believe, a God given right to have strong, solid borders. And the porous nature that just allows people to come in and say, well, Jesus was an immigrant.

You know, this is a false idea that's propagated by the Christian left, you know, that Jesus was somehow an illegal immigrant in Egypt, despite the fact that was also under Roman rule. You know, there's no instance in Scripture that we see this. And so, look, as Christians, we want to love everybody.

But people coming to this nation for the specific purpose of destroying our way of life or doing things illegal, and if they're willing to come in and commit a crime illegally from the beginning, from their entry, how good of citizens are they going to be in this nation? We need to reform immigration.

We need to create ways for people to get in and for there to be a wise and warm welcome for people legally. But this idea that Christianity should support a porous southern border, this is, I think, a false doctrine, and it's just a propaganda of the left.
