Is Selective Outrage the New Virtue Signal?
About this episode
If you think “exposing corruption” is the same as fixing it, this episode is going to challenge you.
Andrea Schwartz and Pastor Charles Roberts argue that the Epstein-file frenzy (and other headline “revelations”) can actually become a distraction—a way to feel morally awake while never returning to God’s standards. They walk through Ephesians 5:8–13 to show what “expose the works of darkness” really means: not just talking about evil, but judging it by God’s law and replacing it with obedient, fruitful alternatives.
Along the way they confront selective outrage (condemning trafficking while excusing prostitution, lamenting violence while tolerating abortion), explain why this rot isn’t new (ancient Rome looked shockingly similar), and warn that when a culture throws off biblical boundaries, the “unthinkable” doesn’t just appear—it progresses.
Their bottom line: pulling weeds is necessary, but if Christians never plant good seed—discipleship, Christian education, cultural obedience, and Great Commission-building—nothing changes. The answer isn’t despair or retreat; it’s rebuilding a God-honouring culture on purpose, for the long haul.
