The Hidden Shift: How Socialism Is Quietly Creeping into America’s Political Landscape

The increasing push for centralized, socialist-leaning policies in the U.S. is concerning, especially as we see historical parallels in countries where socialism led to economic collapse and loss of freedoms. Figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez openly advocate for socialism, while others introduce similar ideologies more subtly, risking the erosion of individual rights. Looking at past examples, from the USSR to Venezuela, we can see how these approaches often end in hardship, reminding voters to carefully consider the impact of such policies

The Eclipse of God

Date: September 5, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Dr. Erwin Lutzer MP3 | Order

There is an active attempt being made by our culture to redefine God, who he is and what he’s declared.  For example, how many times have we heard from politicians that a person can be religious and still be pro-choice or that we can be pro-LGBTQ and still honor God.  All of this points to the idea that rather than recognize that man is made in the image of God, we’re trying to make God in our image and to follow our way of thinking. 

In response, there’s a new book that’s been released called, The Eclipse of God by Dr. Erwin Lutzer, subtitled, “Our nation’s disastrous search for a more inclusive deity (and what we must do about it.)”  Dr. Lutzer notes that just as the moon obscures the sun’s light during an eclipse, today’s radical secularism has obscured the light of God. The solution, as the book communicates, is to help readers see that first and foremost the church must return to God.  We must renew our understanding of His sovereignty and holiness.  Dr. Lutzer reminds us that the culture war has come to us; we didn’t seek it, but win or lose, we must stand against it without losing our testimony for the gospel.

Dr. Erwin Lutzer is pastor Emeritus of The Moody Church where he served as the senior pastor for 36 years.  He is an award-winning author of many books including, We Will Not Be Silenced.  He’s the featured speaker on radio programs heard on more than 750 outlets worldwide.   

So as you listen to this broadcast, you’ll hear Dr. Lutzer discuss a number of points from various chapters.  One involves the 3 historic grave-diggers of God:

Karl Marx and his attempt to destroy God and raise up the state.  

Charles Darwin and his attack on God as Creator.

Sigmund Freud and the attack on God as law-giver.

Overall, here are the objectives of this book:

1.–To better understand the intellectual roots of this present darkness.

2.–To rejoice that God is sovereign and stands ready to give us the blessing of His presence, no matter our predicament.

3.–To remind us that only a repentant and submissive church can shine the light of the gospel with confidence and strength

Each chapter concludes with “The Lessons for Us,” “Our Declaration of Dependence” and “Action Steps.”

More InformationThe Eclipse of God is hot off the press, being released this very month of September, 2024.  It retails for $18.99, however, our VCY Bookstore is making this a book of the month and through September 30, 2024, our bookstore is offering this book at 51% off.  That’s just $9.29 plus any applicable tax and/or shipping.  It’s available online at vcy.com or by calling 1-888-722-4829.

For Such a Time As This

Date: September 4, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Sam Rohrer MP3 | Order

Sam Rohrer is the President of the American Pastors Network. He is a former member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives where he was Chair of the House Finance Committee. He is the speaker on Stand in the Gap Radio and Stand in the Gap Television.

As we observe what is happening in society today, we cannot help but conclude that lawlessness abounds. Just earlier today, there was a school shooting at Apalachee High School in north central Georgia which is about 40 miles northeast of Atlanta. At last report there were four killed and at least nine injured. The suspect is in custody.

Crime and violence are off the charts. Ritzy neighborhoods in California are falling prey to thievery. “Smash and grab” is now commonplace. Rape and violence are becoming everyday news. Many district attorneys are shirking their responsibilities and allowing violent criminals to walk. Car jackings go on without penalty. Then there is the impact of illegal immigration which is consuming neighborhoods and whole communities. Illegal drugs are sweeping across the nation. The morality of our nation is being attacked by the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion movement. Political animosity is at an all-time high.

There are many who want to throw up their arms in despair and say, “I give up.” “I’m done with this fight.” “I’m just going into the recesses and protection of my cocoon.” “It just doesn’t matter anymore.”

As we observe a society that is running amok, it’s critical to point out the role and responsibilities of believers today and know that God has us here for such a time as this.
