In this episode of Theology is Fun, Dr. Corey is joined by Venezuelan Pastor Jim Contreras for a timely conversation on how the church should respond when the world feels like it’s shaking.
With major headlines coming out of Venezuela, including the reported U.S. operation and detention of Nicolás Maduro, Pastor Jim shares a personal perspective from growing up in Venezuela under the Chávez/Maduro-era collapse: water shortages, power outages, food lines, fear, and how it impacted him.
But this episode isn’t political commentary; it’s a pastoral and biblical framework for Christians living through humanitarian and political unrest.
We talk about:
- Why the gospel must stay first in every season
- Why the gospel should be the stumbling block, not our opinions or tone
- How Christian conduct matters most when culture is tense
- How the gospel shapes relationships and unity even when we disagree
- Why our ultimate citizenship is in heaven, not any earthly nation
We close by praying for Venezuela, for families affected, and for churches to stay anchored in Christ with courage, gentleness, and endurance.
Scriptures referenced: John 3:16, Ephesians 2:17–18, Romans 13, Acts 5, 1 Peter 2–3, Hebrews 10
