Washington Is the Left's Testing Ground! | John Lovell Show w/ Josh McPherson

About this episode

John Lovell and Pastor Josh McPherson discuss the challenges of trust in politics and the call for Christian men to engage in statesmanship.

What do you do when the political world feels corrupt, compromised, and almost impossible to trust? In this episode, Pastor Josh McPherson joins John Lovell for a fiery conversation about why so many men are fed up with politics, exhausted by bureaucracy, and tempted to check out completely. But Josh makes the case that walking away is exactly how the darkness wins. This isn’t a polite “go vote” conversation. It’s a call for Christian men to stop surrendering the public square, rebuild what has been broken, and recover the lost art of statesmanship. From corrupt institutions and government overreach to Washington State becoming a testing ground for destructive ideas, John and Josh dig into why the fight for faith, family, freedom, and the future of our children cannot be ignored. Pastor Josh also lays out the heart behind FreedomCon 2026: Rise of the Statesman, a gathering of Christian men at The Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington, built to call men out of apathy and into courage, action, worship, and statesmanship.
