What does faithful political engagement look like for Christians today? In this episode of A Theology of Hustle, I sit down with Justin Giboney—attorney, ordained minister, and president of the AND Campaign—to talk about his new book Don’t Let Nobody Turn You Around.

Justin shares about the inspiration behind his latest work, how the Black Church’s public witness offers a corrective to both progressivism and conservatism, and why we must reclaim compassion and conviction in the public square.

We dive deep into the legacy of the civil rights generation, the dangers of culture-war thinking, and how followers of Jesus can pursue justice without losing biblical authority or love for our enemies.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The story behind the AND Campaign and its mission

  • Lessons from Justin’s grandmother and Mahalia Jackson’s generation

  • The unique witness of the Black Church in politics and culture

  • How ideology replaces theology in today’s culture wars

  • The call for Christians to reject vengeance and pursue redemption

  • What it means to hold both compassion and conviction
