Anatomy of the Church and State


Anatomy of the Church and State

Episode 25 with Jon Root

Embark on a deep dive with our guest, Jon Root, as we examine all things culture from a Christian perspective. We cover the controversies from The Chosen series and the rise of wokeness in sports and how it conflicts with our Christian beliefs, while offering practical suggestions on how Christians can navigate the complexity of it all.


Jon is a former San Jose Sharks and Santa Cruz Warriors in-arena host and digital reporter. Due to the over politicization of the sports industry and our society, he was called to join Turning Point USA as a contributor, hosting multiple shows there, including: Breakaway non-woke sports talk and conversation show and TPUSA LIVE, a political news and entertainment show. He’s now an independent faith, sports, and culture commentator.
