Celebrity Culture and Youth Identity

Influencers, musicians, athletes, and actors shape beliefs and behavior. Many promote values that conflict with Scripture.

• • • Who influences your thinking the most right now?

When Fame Replaces Faith

Success, money, and recognition become idols. Even Christian influencers face pressure to compromise truth for popularity.

• • • Can someone follow Jesus and chase fame at the same time?

Spiritual Warfare in Plain Sight

Music, entertainment, and trends normalize sin. Spiritual battles often look harmless but slowly pull hearts away from God.

How do we enjoy culture without being shaped by it?

Rise in Persecution Awareness & U.S. Government Involvement

The U.S. government has brought attention to the plight of persecuted Christians in Nigeria at the United Nations — signaling growing international concern and possibilities for U.S. leadership or intervention.

This shift shows that religious-freedom issues might increasingly influence U.S. foreign policy and diplomatic engagement.

For American believers, this means there’s more opportunity — perhaps responsibility — to pray, support, and speak up for global Christians under pressure.

U.S. Military Action in Venezuela & the Christian Response

In early January 2026, the United States carried out major military operations in Venezuela, capturing President Nicolás Maduro and bringing him to New York to face legal charges. The situation has had ripple effects across politics, diplomacy, immigrant communities, and the global Church — especially among Venezuelan Christians in the U.S. who are ministering to anxious diaspora populations and praying for peace and justice.

How should Christians understand U.S. military intervention in another nation — especially one with a large Christian population — in light of Biblical teachings on justice, peace, sovereignty, and caring for the oppressed?

Global Crisis and Trauma

• Wars, school shootings, earthquakes, floods, and pandemics. Social media exposes us to tragedy 24/7, increasing fear and anxiety. Where Is God When Suffering Happens? God does not cause evil, but He remains present in pain. Suffering often reveals the brokenness of the world—not the absence of God.

• The Role of the Church

Showing up with compassion, prayer, resources, and hope. Being the hands and feet of Jesus in practical ways. How do tragedies affect your faith personally?

Modern Christian Persecution

• Christians in parts of the Middle East, Africa, and Asia are still being imprisoned or killed for their faith. In Western culture, persecution often looks like mockery, exclusion, censorship, or job loss rather than violence. Youth experience this through pressure to stay silent about faith online or in school.

• • • What does persecution look like for Christians our age today?

• Faith in Public Spaces

Students being told not to pray or reference God publicly. Athletes fined or criticized for praying or crediting God after games. Social media posts about faith often receive backlash.

When have you felt pressured to hide or soften your faith?

Faith in a Politically Divided World

• Elections, wars, and social issues dominate conversations. Christians often feel forced to “pick sides” rather than seek truth.

• • • How do we stay informed without becoming consumed?

• The Danger of Political Idolatry

When loyalty to a party outweighs loyalty to Christ. Defending leaders more passionately than defending biblical values. Can political passion distract us from the gospel?
