In this episode of the Faith Forward Podcast, Pastor Rob McCoy, Pastor Micah Stephens, and Garrett Backstrom dive into the viral incident involving Tarin Swain, a congregant who was barred from praying at a City Council meeting by the mayor, sparking a conversation about the role of faith in public spaces. The trio also tackles the misconceptions of the so-called Christian Left, unpacking how their interpretations stray from Christ’s true teachings. They emphasize the critical need for Christians to actively participate in the public square while underscoring that the ultimate calling for all believers—regardless of context—is to pursue sanctification and grow into the likeness of Christ.
