    Apr 16 2026

How do we respect the position of the presidency while still speaking up against this and other wrongs? Pastor Bob Castro continues to talk about how younger generations are thinking and processing the world around them. A lot is image and emotional driven content in the media. How do we help youth process what they've seen? How do we process what we've seen that is dark and blasphemous so it doesn't continue to affect us negatively?
