How Woke Are You, Mr. Heck?

A student recently asked me, "How woke are you, Mr. Heck?" My answer is simple: I’m not woke — because I’m a Christian. That’s not a judgment on who can follow Jesus, or a claim that people with “woke” views can’t be Christians. It’s a statement about worldviews. I think this is an important episode. We'll get into why wokeness functions like a competing religion, why it ultimately clashes with the gospel, and why Christianity tells a better story of identity, truth, and redemption.
