What happened to the pastors who once led revolutions?

In this episode of Uncommon Sense in Current Times, I sit down with Dan Fisher—pastor, historian, and former Oklahoma legislator—to uncover the forgotten legacy of the Black Robed Regiment: courageous preachers who helped birth a nation. Dan challenges today’s clergy to stop hiding behind political correctness and reclaim their biblical role as moral leaders, truth-tellers, and defenders of liberty.

From the myths of church-state separation to the cowardice creeping into modern pulpits, this conversation pulls no punches. If you’ve ever wondered why so many churches stay silent on abortion, gender, tyranny, or truth—it’s time to wake up.

📌 Topics Covered:
✅ Who were the Black Robed Regiment—and why they still matter
✅ Why pastors won’t preach truth in today’s culture war
✅ The lie of “separation of church and state”
✅ How Romans 13 is misunderstood and misused
✅ Why America may have already lost its republic
✅ What brave pastors must do now to be relevant
✅ How to start preaching—and living—the whole counsel of God

Pastor Jeff Schreve—author of The Devil’s Newsroom and host of From His Heart Ministries—joins Uncommon Sense in Current Times to expose how Satan is spreading deception through media, culture, and even some churches.

Why are churches afraid to talk about the issues people struggle with most?

In this episode, Pastor Mike Novotny—author of Taboo and lead pastor at The Core Church—tackles the uncomfortable truth about why churches often avoid topics like pornography, suicide, abuse, and mental health. With vulnerability and biblical clarity, he explains how fear, shame, and “image management” have silenced the very conversations that could bring healing.

Novotny shares how the church can reclaim its voice by leading with humility, creating safe spaces for confession, and rooting every hard conversation in the identity we have in Christ—not just behavior modification. Whether you're a pastor, parent, or someone quietly struggling, this episode reminds you: Jesus is not afraid of your story.

• The 3 reasons churches avoid taboo topics

• How confession breaks shame and brings healing

• Why identity in Christ is the key to lasting change

• The gospel vs. legalism in the hardest conversations

• Real talk on pornography, depression, and trauma

• What healthy repentance looks like in everyday life
