The mandate calls on Christians to gain influence, or “take dominion,” over seven key areas of culture: religion, family, education, government, media, business and the arts.

Reminder to the fewer and fewer "Christians" that actually follow what Jesus taught: this "7 Mountains Mandate" is nonsense from people looking for power. Jesus didn't teach it, it's not in the Bible, it's bullshit.

Their policy on education, media, and the arts seems to be to stop doing it entirely.
