“Challenge The Faith” is a relatively new podcast taking the young Christian landscape by storm, bringing voices from across the faith-based spectrum to the mainstream.

There is no denying that we are in the middle of a Great American Revival, largely driven by the huge number of young people finding their faith and professing it publicly and without shame. Many of these individuals come from non-traditional backgrounds. Some find Christ in their darkest moments, realizing that He and His Father will save our souls in a way that nothing on Earth ever will — or can.

Challenge The Faith is designed to bring all walks of life together under His word by tackling some of the “toughest questions and controversies of the Bible, the modern church for believers and non believers,” according to their YouTube page.

Growing Voices Of Christian Youth Culture

All too often, elder generations within the church are quick to turn young people away from faith. We ignore their story of salvation in favor of our own, pushing our exact belief structures and experiences instead of listening to those who will lead when we are gone.

Division is the worst kind of moral danger within the church, so the next time you hear a young person testify in a way that doesn’t align with your exact belief system, please listen. Learn from these young minds as they have been put here for a reason. Grow with young people, help them in unconditional ways, and do it with unconditional love.

Being deaf to new ideas, new revelations, makes you blind in your journey. All we ask today is that you act from this place of unconditional love, let down your ego, and know that God has a plan for each and every soul – and you are simply one of them, and you are not supposed to know why you are here. Not yet.

Keep Acting Local

Politicians you elect in your city, county, and state usually have a greater impact on your daily life than anyone in the federal government. During “off-years,” these local races send ripple effects throughout American communities. It is up to you to shape them.

It seems like every time we at Million Voices speak to lawmakers and their teams, they all tell us the same thing: if just 10 people in their district write letters about issues that matter to them, elected officials know they have a serious crisis on their hands. A thousand people could message that same lawmaker via email or social media, and it would mean nothing. But hand-written, or even printed and signed letters, will make your politicians take action (if they really care about your vote, that is).

Contacting your representatives should be easy, but there are myriad ways they can ignore your calls to action. That’s where we come in. 

Yes, Million Voices helps you with voter guides. Yes, we send letters from YOU directly to your elected officials because it’s the only way to guarantee they’ll listen to you. Yes, we publish data, articles, text messages, and help bridge the gap between education and civic action. But what do you want? Tell us today.

We want to make YOU the hero of our American story by giving you the tools you need to make a difference, from your local, state, all the way up to the federal level.

Join us in our mission to advocate for religious freedom, support fair and secure elections, and uphold the values that this great nation was built upon. Tell us what you want from the next four years, and we will fight to make it a reality … again!
