The Gritty Gospel with Christy Young

What EVERY Christian Parent Needs to Know About Public Schools

What every Christian parent needs to know about public school — and why what’s taught in the classroom today didn’t happen by accident.

In this episode of The Gritty Gospel, we pull back the curtain on the history, philosophy, and spiritual direction of America’s education system — and why followers of Jesus can’t afford to ignore it.

🔹 PART I: Where the System Came From We trace the roots of modern education — from the industrial revolution to the push for a standardized, state-controlled system.

🔹 PART II: Who Shaped It Meet the key thinkers and reformers who designed public schools to form citizens — not disciples — and how their worldview still shapes classrooms today.

🔹 PART III: How It Became Centralized Discover how government control and federal funding slowly replaced local, family-led influence — and what that means for parents of faith.

🔹 PART IV: As Believers, What Do We Do About It? This is where conviction meets action. How do we disciple our kids in a system that’s discipling them away from Christ?

👉 Whether you homeschool, send your kids to public school, or something in between — this episode will challenge you to think deeply, biblically, and courageously about your child’s education.

Culture Wants Feminine Boys & Masculine Girls - How We Fight Back

Culture Wants Feminine Boys & Masculine Girls — and most parents don’t even realize it’s happening. From cartoons and clothing lines to school lessons and social media trends, there is a clear agenda to make our boys softer and our girls harder — reversing the biblical design God gave them.

In this episode, we expose how culture is trying to flip gender roles and reshape our kids’ identity. But more importantly — we talk about how we fight back as Christian parents.

✅ How to raise strong, courageous boys without shaming their masculinity

✅ How to raise gentle, confident girls without pushing them into manhood

✅ What Scripture actually says about gender, identity, and calling

✅ Why your voice matters more than the world’s megaphone Parents — God trusted YOU with your children. Not the school system. Not Hollywood. Not TikTok. This is not a time to stay silent. It’s time to shape their worldview before culture does.

🔥 If you’re ready to:

👉 Protect your son from being softened

👉 Guard your daughter from being hardened

👉 Stand firm on God’s design for manhood & womanhood — then this episode is for you. 🎧

How Woke Ideology Seeks to Silence the Gospel

In today’s culture, the message of Jesus Christ is being censored, twisted, and redefined.

Woke ideology claims to champion truth and justice, but in reality it seeks to silence the gospel and redefine it, leaving kids spiritually adrift, seeking salvation in social activism rathe than in the shed blood of Christ.

In this video, we expose:

**How woke ideology contradicts Scripture

**Why the gospel is being silenced in culture and society

**The danger of counterfeit gospels and false ideologies

**How Christians can stand firm, speak truth, and share the real hope of Christ

If you’ve ever wondered why biblical truth feels under attack, or how to respond with both conviction and grace, this is for you.
