🎧 Show Summary
In this episode of The Weekly Watch, Dave Jenkins addresses one of the most vital issues facing the Church today: biblical orthodoxy in a shifting cultural landscape.
We’re living in a time when truth is questioned, redefined, and often discarded. So how can Christians hold fast to biblical truth when everything around them seems to be changing?
Dave walks through the foundations of orthodoxy, exposes cultural and theological challenges, and offers practical guidance for standing firm in truth—personally, in the church, and in everyday life.
If you’ve been struggling to navigate this cultural moment with clarity, grace, and conviction—this episode is for you.
