“A Darkness Has Come Upon Our Nation”

“A Darkness Has Come Upon Our Nation”

Author: rseonline.org | Social Narratives & Christian Apologetics April 8, 2026 Duration: 43:29

Is there hope in our modern culture? Why are all these changes happening?

Joining us today is Andrew Stephenson, who is the director of CBR UK.

In this episode we discuss the darkness that has come upon Western nations, as votes are passing through governments which are shocking many Christians.

Recent examples of this are the assisted passing bill and ending life up to birth. These are both currently on the verge of being passed in the UK Parliament.

We also talk about:

- The False Paradigm of Left / Right Politics

- Has Society been on the decline since the Christian Gospel has been largely neglected?

- What the Bible says about defending the cause of the orphan and window

- What does God say about these issues?

- If this trajectory doesn’t change, do we risk judgment in our nations?

- How do we address these issues in a healthy way, without becoming a “dominionist” or trying to force others?
