Drew Dyck on Just Show Up and the Power of Small Acts of Faithfulness
In this Filter episode, I talked with Drew Dyck about his new book, Just Show Up: How Small Acts of Faithfulness Change Everything. Dyck shares his insights on the power of persistence and the significance of everyday faithfulness, challenging the common belief that only big, bold moments matter. He emphasizes the importance of showing up for God, family, community, and oneself, and how these small acts of obedience to God accumulate into a life of meaning and impact. Dyck's candid reflections on his journey, coupled with inspiring stories of ordinary people saying yes to God, offer us a practical demonstration of the power of faithfulness in every area of life.
Drew Dyck is an editor at Moody Publishers and the former managing editor of Leadership Journal. He is the author of several books, including Your Future Self Will Thank You: Secrets to Self-Control from the Bible and Brain Science (Moody, 2019).

Neil Shenvi on Critical Dilemma and Responding to Social Justice Ideologies
I’m excited to present another episode featuring Neil Shenvi, co-author of Critical Dilemma. In this conversation, we unravel the complexities of contemporary critical theories like critical race theory and social justice ideology. Shenvi and co-author Pat Sawyer navigate the implications of these theories for society and the church, condemning racism while advocating for racial healing and unity. Their book balances the valid insights of critical theory with critical analysis, exposing its foundational flaws. Praised for its scholarly depth and accessibility, Critical Dilemma offers a nuanced understanding of these divisive theories. It provides a valuable resource for addressing societal challenges and engaging with illiberal progressive arguments.
Neil Shenvi has an A.B. in chemistry from Princeton and a Ph.D. in theoretical chemistry from the University of California, Berkeley. He was a research scientist at Yale University and Duke University and has published over thirty peer-reviewed scientific papers. In addition, his writings on critical theory have been published by the Journal of Christian Legal Thought, the Gospel Coalition, Eikon, Ratio Christi, and the Liberty University Law Review, among others. He is married and currently homeschools his four children.
