What Bill C-9 Means for Christians

In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Pastor Nate Wright and Dr. Joe Boot revisit Canada’s Bill C-9, now moving toward becoming law, and explain why its implications extend far beyond Canada. They discuss the bill’s vague definition of “hatred,” the removal of religious protections, and the potential consequences for pastors, churches, Christian schools, and ministries seeking to remain faithful to Scripture.   Nate and Joe also consider how this legislation may affect preaching, church discipline, Christian education, institutional policies, and public witness. Rather than calling Christians to panic or retreat, they urge the church to prepare now with courage, clarity, and conviction—remaining faithful to Christ even when faithfulness becomes costly.
