Send us a textToday, I'm here with my good friend and fellow podcaster, Ken Fong. Every week, the two of us dig deep into the big conversations shaping our lives, our culture, and the soul of our nation. We come to you from different vantage points, different life experiences, but with a shared commitment to truth, curiosity, and connection.This week, we talk about something that's been quietly eroding the way we live together as Americans — the loss of a national audience. Remember when 34 million people tuned in to watch The Cosby Show? Today, Stephen Colbert barely pulls in 3 million viewers. We're living in silos now, fragmented into tribes, each consuming our own narrow stream of information. Entertainment. E pluribus unum — out of many, one — feels more like a historical slogan than a lived reality.We'll also tackle the ongoing culture wars: from attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion, to the rise of a “colorblind” narrative that erases cultural heritage, to the growing movement to merge church and state. Figures like Doug Wilson, Pete Hegseth, Russell Vought, and Charlie Kirk are openly advocating for a theocratic America — one where women are subordinate and “Christian nationalism” rules the land.And beyond politics, we're looking at the real impact of fear and division — from ICE raids in our neighborhoods to the suppression of voices that challenge the status quo.It's time to wake up. Join us in the conversation.SHOW NOTESSupport the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show.

How does understanding ancient, Jewish prayer transform the way we approach our own prayer life? In this thought-provoking discussion, the Voxology Podcast unpacks the profound communal and theological practices of Jewish prayer that shaped the teachings of Jesus and continue to challenge modern, individualistic approaches to Christianity. Join the hosts as they explore how prayer reflects our understanding of God, our faith, and the world around us, offering a deeper lens into themes of cruciformity, justice, and the role of the church in society. By examining the historical context of Jewish prayer practices, such as the Shema and the Amidah, the conversation dives into the rhythms of blessing, repentance, and trust that were central to the lives of early believers. Learn how these practices offer fresh insight into the Lord's Prayer and reshape how we navigate faith and cultural challenges today. Whether it's reimagining what it means to bless God or understanding prayer as a communal act of justice and restoration, this episode invites listeners into a richer theology of prayer that connects deeply with the teachings of Jesus. How does prayer influence your faith perspective? We encourage and would love discussion as we pursue these topics together. Feel free to email your thoughts, engage the conversation on Facebook and Instagram, and join us in exploring the intersection of faith, justice, and cultural engagement.

Episode Summary:  Is our mission today, as Christians living in America, to recover America as a Christian nation? As we process what happened in the last election and the storming of the Capitol since, Christians are divided. Eschewing passivity, many believers feel impelled to speak up on the social media to fight a movement rooted in ungodliness, which they see shaping our culture. They are appalled that younger Christian leaders either don't seem to see this happening or seem to lack the courage to speak up about it. Other believers are horrified at the views they hear expressed by Christians on social media, which exhibit a kind of “Christian Nationalism” and exhibit Christians to be combative towards those with whom they disagree, violating Christ's clear command, love your neighbor, not to mention, love your enemy. This episode continues our series Winning Spiritual Battles Because We Use Our Spiritual Weapons by examining how to encircle ourselves with the belt of God's truth, which must be the starting point for sharing that truth in the culture. Then we consider how to be persuasive as salt and light in the culture, and in particular the dangers of being right, but sharing truth in a HARMFUL, rather than a COMPELLING way For Further Prayerful Thought: Which aspect of fastening the belt of truth around ourselves stood out to you?Why is it important in today's word to surround our loved ones with truth?How does Jesus' teaching not to give holy things to dogs or throw our pearls before swine resonate with your experience? Are there times when you have thought that a person is not spiritually in a place to hear this truth?How do Paul and Barnabas follow this teaching from Jesus in Acts 13:44-49.

Today's Podcast is for the spiritually mature, because we'll be discussing a few subjects that many of us including me agree with in principle, but fall way short in practical application. Our two main topics today center around the now-approved plan by Israel for a military takeover of all of Gaza, and the wave of Christian Nationalism brought to use by the New Apostolic Reformation adherents that dominate the Trump administration. If you believe the Bible, both these things will end in bitter failure, there's a reason for that, and we're going to talk about it.“And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days.” Genesis 49:1 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, we are here on Day 1,971 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve, and the end times activity continues to pin the needle on the prophecy meter. In the Middle East, Israel is walking into a very unpopular takeover of all of Gaza condemned by Germany, Saudi Arabia and England among others. Even many Israelis in Israel are not happy with this new direction. Over in America, a different problem is taking shape, the ‘apostles' of the New Apostolic Reformation that make up the majority of the “Christians” in the Trump administration want to create a theocracy. Launched back in May with a blog post entitled ‘Mission To Babylon', a church has been planted in Washington, DC, that says they are ‘a Conservative, Reformed, & Evangelical church in D.C. We affirm the Apostles Creed, the Nicene Creed, the Definition of Chalcedon, and the Westminster Confession of Faith.' Calvinism, NAR and Evangelical all rolled into one, big, fat mess. Oh, boy, is that ever a recipe for Laodicean disaster. But into the breech we go on this edition of the Prophecy News Podcast!

He is the author of several books including the subject of today's interview: The Price of Freedom Denied: Religious Persecution and Conflict in the 21st Century (2011) co-authored with Brian Grim. In this book, Grim and Finke found that as religious freedoms are denied in a society, both by government and by social groups within a society, religious persecution increases. Given the quasi-establishments of evangelical Christianity developing throughout the land, it is important to be aware of the potential consequences of these church-state alliances.  The Association of Religion Data Archives (ARDA) - www.thearda.com.

In this episode of Thinking Christian, Dr. James Spencer and Nate dive into the recent Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) vote addressing Christian nationalism. They explore what makes Christian nationalism problematic from a biblical perspective, distinguishing it from both healthy political engagement and American civil religion. With examples ranging from Ten Commandments in classrooms to Doug Wilson’s patriotic theology, they challenge lazy uses of the term "Christian" and advocate for theological precision. The conversation closes with reflections on how believers can engage faithfully in politics without confusing the kingdom of God with the kingdoms of this world. Subscribe to Our YouTube Channel!

Send us a textPaul Matzko is a historian and senior program manager for AI and emerging technology at the Institute for Humane Studies at George Mason University. He is also an adjunct scholar at the Cato Institute and host of the Unintended Consequences podcast. Today, he joins me to discuss how Christian nationalism differs from citizen engagement with politics. Often Christian nationalists complain that they are simply living out their faith in the public square. However, Paul teases out the differences between policies which benefit the common good and those which are designed to benefit mainly or only Christians affiliated with the regime in power. This is part one of a two-part interview. Next week, I will have the conclusion where Paul talks about the bitter consequences of Christian nationalism and addresses the question: Has Christian nationalism ever worked?Topics today:What is Christian nationalism?Christian nationalism and the ideology of South African apartheidChristian nationalism and Geralf L. K. SmithBilly Sunday and the KlanMAGA as the modern America First movementChristian nationalism is a different faith than orthodox ChristianityChristian nationalism and public schoolsand much more...Music today is provided by Earl's Taco Shack, Jonus Fair, and Dustin Blatnik.Hosted and produced by Warren ThrockmortonArtwork by Sarah Eshelman

In this conversation, Joel Webbon and Stephen Wolfe explore the themes of Christian Nationalism as it relates to (and differs from) the theological implications of Israel's identity.They discuss the definition of a nation, the importance of language and culture, and the historical context of Israel in relation to Christian thought. The conversation examines the political implications of Jewish identity and the nature of nationhood, ultimately questioning the theological obligations of Christian nations towards Israel.Webbon and Wolfe further explore the complex interplay between theology, nationhood, and multiculturalism. They discuss the implications of special privileges granted to certain groups, particularly in the context of Jewish identity and intermarriage.

Luke posits that Christian Nationalism appears to be acting primarily as a counter-reformation to the efforts of faithful men and women seeking national repentance. Starting off today is a discussion around the theonomy and Christian reconstruction of the 70's being a donor base for Christian Nationalism, then an examination of several talks from Eric Conn and Stephen Wolfe!  

Have you ever thought about your religious beliefs and where they came from, and how they shaped you as a person? What if the "traditional values" you grew up thinking were totally normal are actually part of a much darker system of control hiding in plain sight? Today I'm bringing you Tia Levings, New York Times bestselling author of "A Well-Trained Wife," and her story is going to blow your damn mind about religious trauma, Christian fundamentalism, and how the tradwife movement connects to patriarchal ideologies that are literally shaping our politics right now. From a mainstream Southern Baptist upbringing to the quiverfull movement, Tia's journey reveals how Christian patriarchy operates as a "cult within a cult" - your neighbors next door who looked a little conservative but were living under a completely different set of rules where abuse wasn't just normalized, it was sanctified.I've been chasing Tia down for a year and a half because her analysis of what's happening in our country today traces directly back to these core fundamental beliefs that have been patiently infiltrating mainstream America for decades. If you're wondering what the hell is going on in America, Tia's story is the key to decoding those invisible threads and figuring out how we move forward instead of backwards.What You'll Learn in This Episode:How mainstream Christianity can funnel people toward higher-control fundamentalist beliefsThe shocking reality of "Christian domestic discipline" and wife spanking in fundamentalist homesWhy the quiverfull movement aims to win the culture war through population controlHow the "fundy baby voice" is used to keep women sounding childlike and non-threateningThe hypersexualization tactics hidden behind modesty teachings in Christian patriarchyHow to recognize when political figures are using patriarchal manipulation techniquesWhy joy and happiness are actually forms of resistance against fundamentalist controlPractical ways to resist authoritarianism without burning yourself outTia's courage to tell the whole truth about Christian fundamentalism - including the secrets they don't want exposed - is exactly what we need right now to understand the forces shaping our reality. Her journey from controlled tradwife to fearless voice exposing religious trauma provides invaluable context about where our country is headed and how we can resist. Are you ready to stop normalizing the things that shouldn't be normal and start reclaiming your joy as an act of rebellion?

Rep. James Talarico is a Christian fighting Christian nationalism in the Texas legislature. He's also an 8th generation Texans; a former middle school teacher; and a seminarian. He calls school voucher schemes “scams,” and “welfare for the rich,” while labeling Gov. Abbott “Robinhood in reverse.” He went viral for opposing the Ten Commandments bill on religious grounds and is now squaring up against the Christian nationalist billionaire pastors trying to take over Texas – and the United States. He spoke to Brad about reproductive rights, education, religious freedom, and how Texans are fighting back.

Send us a textThis segment includes a significant amount of a recent interview with historican and author Jemar Tisby. Although I interviewed Jemar in the spring, the content is incredibly timely and relevant now. In this discussion, we cover the Trump administration's war on due process, diversity programs, and foreign aid. A recurring theme is the grift, greed, and cruelty of the Trump administration's Christian nationalism. Jemar challenges listeners to speak the truth and act to preserve our freedoms.   From the segment: "To put it in Christian terms, White Christian nationalism is wrong on a lot of levels, but if you want to talk about a very basic level, it's a violation of the third commandment: thou shalt not take the Lord's name in vain. Which of course doesn't refer to to cussing or using bad words. It's fundamentally about not doing things in God's name that God would never condone."In response to the interview and recent events, I ask: Why is an administration which claims the US is a Christian nation known for its cruelty rather than compassion?"SHOW NOTES:Jemar Tisby's Substack: http://jemartisby.substack.comNon-violence training with the King Center, July 19, Noon-3pm (et): https://jemartisby.substack.com/p/train-in-nonviolence-with-the-kingThe Spirit of Justice: https://jemartisby.com/the-spirit-of-justice/Music provided by Earl's Taco Shack, Dustin Blatnik, and Jonus Fair.

What if the most politically influential Christian leaders in America aren't the ones you've heard of? In this eye-opening conversation, Dr. Matthew D. Taylor joins Dru Johnson to explain how the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) and related charismatic networks reshaped modern evangelicalism—and helped deliver the presidency to Donald Trump. Taylor, a scholar of religion and politics, traces how televangelists, prophets, and apostolic leaders operating outside denominational structures built a new Christian populist movement with real spiritual and political power. Far from being fringe actors, these leaders—like Paula White and Lance Wallnau—hold enormous sway through media networks and prophetic authority. Taylor explores how modern prophecy, celebrity culture, and populist theology have created a system resistant to critique, driven by revival language and unregulated influence. He explains why evangelical elites misjudged the NAR's reach and how their dismissal of these leaders as “hucksters” only deepened the divide. We are listener supported.

In this conversation, Joel Webbon and Dr. Stephen Wolfe specifically define Christian Nationalism, and reveal the intersection of theology and political philosophy, as well as the historical context provided by Aristotle.They also discuss the criticisms faced by proponents of Christian Nationalism, particularly regarding the claim that “Christian Nationalism lacks a sufficient use of Scripture and theological grounding.”Furthermore, Joel and Stephen explore the potentially negative effects of postmillennialism and theonomy on the Christian Nationalist movement.Lastly, the conversation also delves into the roles that both grace and nature play in shaping societal structures, and the significance of a Christian family in a broader cultural context.

Segment 1: • John MacArthur: There is no such thing as “Christian Nationalism.” • Jesus never tied political power to advancing His kingdom. • Christ came for hearts, not government control—He calls us to live transformed lives, not to seize nations. Segment 2: • Christians should care about politics, but can't force governments to obey Scripture. • Jesus' kingdom is not of this world—He didn't overthrow Rome. • Christian Nationalism often lacks clear biblical support despite quotes from theologians. Segment 3: • Jesus promised His spiritual kingdom would prevail against darkness, not political kingdoms. • We must align with what Scripture says, not postmillennial dreams of a theocracy. • Christians should engage politics wisely, but expect the world to get darker, not Christianized. Segment 4: • Seeking a “muscular Christianity”? Be careful it doesn't become vigilante Christianity. • When, if ever, should Christians resist or overthrow corrupt governments? • We must obey God over man—but Scripture limits when and how resistance is biblical. ___ Thanks for listening!

Segment 2: • Supreme Court rulings trending positively. Why now? • Unpacks the White House Faith Office's role and warns about NAR dominionism creeping into political movements. • Highlights the PCA's study on Christian Nationalism, emphasizing the need for clear confessional grounding in confusing times.

Skinner on human dignity vs. behavioral control. • Connects these classic debates to modern challenges like IVF's low success rates and ethical confusion in culture. • Stresses that Truth Unhindered remains the need of the hour in cultural engagement. Segment 4: • Switzerland news segues to U.S. stats: 2/3 of young adults leave church, prompting calls for “old school” church. • Todd warns against trendy “hipster church” models that fail to disciple deeply. • Reminds listeners: The early church grew because it was countercultural, not because it adapted to culture. ___ Thanks for listening!

In this episode of Faith for Normal People, Beau Underwood and Brian Kaylor join Pete and Jared to explore the history of how mainline Protestants have contributed to Christian nationalism in the United States. They explain how patriotic worship practices, uncritical support for the state, and assumptions about the nation's “Christian” identity have shaped the movement—and how churches today can begin to untangle faith from nationalism.
