Show by Hannah Miles Pierrou

Is America facing a crisis of biblical illiteracy? And could a return to God's Word spark a new Christian revival? In this episode of the Upright Christian Parenting Podcast, host Hannah Pierrou welcomes Bunni Pounds, founder of Christians Engaged, author of Stepping Up to Lead: Rebuilding a Nation in the Footsteps of Nehemiah, and the visionary behind America Reads the Bible. As America celebrates its 250th anniversary, Bunni shares the remarkable story of bringing national leaders together at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., to read Scripture publicly from Genesis to Revelation. From powerful testimonies of renewed faith to the growing hunger for biblical truth, this conversation explores what it will take to bring the American church back to the Word of God. Hannah and Bunni discuss the dangers of cultural Christianity, the importance of daily Bible reading, and why parents must intentionally disciple their children in an increasingly distracted and disconnected world. In this episode, you'll discover: Why biblical illiteracy is a growing concern for the American church The story behind America Reads the Bible and its impact on families and national leaders What Ezra and Nehemiah teach us about spiritual revival and rebuilding a nation How Christians Engaged is encouraging believers to pray, vote, and engage in their communities Why authentic Christian faith matters more than religious routines How parents can raise biblically grounded children in a digital culture Why Gen Z and the next generation desperately need genuine relationships and discipleship How The Whole Bible Live initiative is helping families read through Scripture in 24 weeks Bunni also shares how her newest book, Stepping Up to Lead, challenges Christians to move beyond passive faith and become courageous leaders in their homes, churches, and communities. The message is simple: Before we can change our culture, we must return to God's Word.
