The End of Negative World? What the Vibe Shift Means for Christians with Natasha Crain

The Great Awokening Podcast

In this episode, I sit down with Natasha Crain to talk about her new book, When Culture Hates You, and the growing hostility Christians have faced in recent years. But we also dig into something that’s changing—the vibe shift happening in our culture. For years, we’ve been living in the negative world, where Christianity has been increasingly marginalized. Now, there are signs that the pendulum is starting to swing back. We discuss why this shift is happening, what it means for Christians, and how believers should position themselves in a culture that may be more open to biblical truth than it has been in a long time. We also talk about the idea of the common good, the role of Christians in political discourse, and how to push back against the media’s framing of Christian nationalism. Natasha offers a thoughtful, strategic approach to cultural engagement—one that avoids both compromise and retreat. As we navigate this new moment, how should Christians engage? How do we capitalize on the opportunities this shift presents while remaining faithful to our mission? We unpack all of that and more in this episode. If you’ve sensed that something is changing and you want to understand how to respond, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
