Culture Brief - Christian perspectives on the week's biggest news, sports & pop-culture stories
This week, we’re breaking down the headlines shaping our world. We start with Pride Month and explore how corporations are responding this year—what’s changed, what hasn’t, and why it matters. Then, we shift to unpacking Ukraine’s latest drone strike inside Russia and what it signals for the future of warfare. Finally, we lighten things up with a round of “Would You Rather” and a quick analysis of what’s going on with Elon Musk leaving DOGE and slamming Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill”. Plus, a quick preview of the NBA Finals, Stanley Cup Finals, and a return of a McDonald's favorite. Pull up a chair and join the conversation—we’re glad you’re here!
