Identity Politics: Who Are You? 7/8 Rev. Dr. Katie Hays Who is the Spirit? Paul presents an unsettling (to us) duality between “flesh” and “Spirit” – a somewhat anachronistic, Hellenistic understanding of personhood. Maybe for us, his contrast would be better understood as “impulsive appetites” vs. “considered choices”? Or perhaps “self-pleasing” vs. “other-considering”? In any case, the “fruit of the Spirit” in 5:22-23 deserves our full attention. To tell us your thoughts on this sermon, click through to the web posting and leave us a comment.

Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and former member of Rush Limbaugh's “highly overrated staff,” takes over The Derek Hunter Podcast, diving into hot-and-spicy political debates and cultural issues: Constitutional Debates & Kentucky Politics: Analysis of Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear's calls for constitutional amendments, abolishing the Electoral College, and demanding “proof of life” for Sen. Mitch McConnell. Electoral College vs. Popular Vote: A breakdown of James Madison's original intent, the balance of power between low- and high-population states, and alternative systems like district-based electoral votes. Standards & Identity Politics: A commentary on institutional standards, identity-driven hiring, and the societal pressures around public accountability. Cambridge University's drive to tick a box by hiring Jason Arday ended, when he could no longer keep up the façade, in him taking his own life because he'd just never been equipped with the tools he needed in life.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – A man living after 30 years as a woman shares a journey of repentance, faith, and reconciliation, raising urgent questions about gender identity, children, parental rights, and cultural truth while arguing that compassion and honesty must stand together in a deeply divided American society today...

Identity Politics: Who Are You? 5/8 Rev. Dr. Katie Hays Who is Abraham? Here is the crux of Paul's argument: that long before there was a Torah (religious law), there was a promise made by God to Abraham. Abraham had no 10 Commandments, no temple, no Leviticus, etc. All he had was faith: trust that God would keep God's promises. And so, Paul says, that's the only thing “required” for Abraham's offspring, which includes non-Jews who trust God's promises. And this dissolves the hierarchies of belonging, through our baptism into this trust. To tell us your thoughts on this sermon, click through to the web posting and leave us a comment.

Identity Politics: Who Are You? 2/8 Rev. Tyler Araki Who is Joseph? From a favored child, to slavery, sexual objectification and assault, prisoner, forgotten, to finally the second most powerful person in Egypt. Joseph's life is a traumatic roller coaster, with incredible peaks, and horrid valleys. To put it another way, Joseph is a spiritual refugee. So many of us are like him in some way. And, like Joseph, we have still held on, still hope that God's love is real, for us, and worth it. And, we are also called to echo Joseph's life, not as one who only survives, but also works to help others, that is, build up the Kingdom of God. All that has happened to Joseph could make him hateful, vengeful, hostile, and cruel, understandably so. But none of that will help to create the world we want, the world that God wants. What if we can gather up all that we are learning in this shelter of each other, and all that has happened to us, so we might be changed into people who will live out mercy, justice, kindness, and love?

Identity Politics: Who Are You? 3/8 Rev. Dr. Katie Hays Who is Paul? Paul the Apostle had a violent, anti-Christian past. It was hard to overcome, and he might have asked for the approval of the OG apostles (i.e. the ones who knew Jesus). But he eschewed their credentialing and asserted his own identity as an apostle “through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead” (1:1). What does it take to have a strong enough sense of self that neither your past nor your peers define you?

Identity Politics: Who Are You? 4/8 Rev. Dr. Katie Hays Who is Cephas? “Cephas” is the Aramaic form of “Peter,” i.e. Jesus's most vocal and passionate disciple. Paul has caught Peter in blatant hypocrisy: keeping kosher when certain Jewish- Christian leaders are around, but freely noshing with Gentiles when they're not. Paul says you can't have it both ways.

On Friday, July 31st, we hosted Dr. Ginie Servant-Miklos for a Q&A about her book Pedagogies of Collapse: A Hopeful Education for the End of the World As We Know It. This was the conclusion of our Pedagogies of Collapse book club, where we met biweekly to discuss the book and its implication for education. Here is the full unedited Q&A.

Christopher Nolan's blockbuster adaptation of The Odyssey has become far more than a film. It's sparked fierce arguments about race, masculinity, Western civilisation, Christianity, leadership, and the culture wars.Geraldine Doogue and Hamish Macdonald are joined by Quillette founder Claire Lehmann to unpack why Nolan's retelling has generated such intense debate. From Elon Musk's criticism of the film to disputes over casting choices, they explore what today's political battles are revealing about how we interpret ancient stories.Is Nolan preserving a foundational text of the Western canon for a new generation, or reshaping it through modern values? And why has a 3,000-year-old myth suddenly become a flashpoint in 2026?Along the way, they debate whether Odysseus has been stripped of his complexity, whether the film reflects Christian ideas of guilt rather than ancient Greek values, and what the story may tell us about leadership, social cohesion, and fears of civilisational decline.Guests: Claire Lehmann, founder of QuilletteGet in touch:We'd love to hear from you!

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss a Democratic identity politics clash over the 2028 primary calendar, why Michele Tafoya is way ahead in Minnesota's GOP Senate primary, New Jersey registering noncitizens to vote, and an Arizona House race with a New York Jets twist.First, Jim and Greg watch identity politics turn inward as South Carolina and Nevada battle over the 2028 Democratic primary schedule. South Carolina Democratic chair Christale Spain warned that elevating Nevada tells Black voters they matter less than "brown voters." Greg notes identity politics always eats its own.Next, they cover good news in Minnesota, where friend of the show Michele Tafoya leads the Republican U.S. Senate primary with 41 percent. Jim and Greg praise her polished delivery and anti-fraud campaign ad, though they worry Mike Lindell's lead in the governor's primary could weigh down the ticket.Then, they dig into New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill admitting a Motor Vehicle Commission software error registered 6,600 noncitizens to vote and allowed roughly 400 illegal votes. Jim questions why officials hid the two-year-old glitch, while Greg argues voter registration should not be a casual DMV add-on.Finally, they highlight an Arizona toss-up congressional race featuring a New York Jets connection. Former NFL kicker Jay Feely won the GOP primary in the 1st Congressional District and will likely face Democrat Amish Shah, the team's former doctor. Jim and Greg note the winner could help determine control of the U.S. House.

YouTuber and commentator Amir Odom joins Riley Gaines for a wide-ranging conversation on identity politics, the modern LGBTQ movement, BLM, political homelessness, and what it means to speak freely in a culture that often demands ideological conformity. Amir shares his perspective as a Black gay man who describes himself as center-right and politically homeless, explaining why he believes many people are pressured into boxes based on race, sexuality, or political identity. Riley and Amir also discuss the backlash faced by people who dissent from progressive orthodoxy, parasocial relationships between creators and followers, why Amir keeps his personal life private, and his most controversial food take: cookies dipped in water.

Send us Fan MailIn this new episode of the Two Kens, Ken Fong and I explore a growing movement that claims white Americans have become an "unprotected class" in modern America. Sparked by the ideas of author and Claremont Institute fellow Jeremy Carl, whose book The Unprotected Class argues that anti-white discrimination is widespread, we examine the resurgence of white identity politics at a moment when DEI initiatives and anti-racism efforts are facing significant backlash.We discuss the concept of racism as a perceived zero-sum game—the belief that gains for minorities necessarily mean losses for the dominant culture—and how that narrative is shaping today's political landscape. Along the way, we ask a surprisingly complicated question: What does it mean to be "white" in America? We contrast the emerging politics of white grievance with Martin Luther King Jr.'s vision of a color-blind society and consider whether America's future lies in competing racial identities or in a renewed commitment to common dignity, solidarity, and the common good.SHOW NOTESSupport the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show.

They debate Trump's showmanship around his birthday and a ceasefire/peace deal they expect won't hold, citing Iran's improved position, unresolved issues, disrupted shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, and risks to oil prices. They then address Ukraine's drone attacks on Moscow and concerns about an escalating, lingering war.

Send Wilk a text with your feedback! (incoming msgs only - I can't reply) Kevin Dolan and Peter Calfee met at a Veterans Day luncheon in 2022 and spent three years writing Hijacked: Our Republic — a book built around one essential question: what does it take to keep what the founders built?In this conversation, Kevin and Peter walk through the six foundational pillars they believe hold a republic together — critical thinking, education, faith and values, history, political systems, and economics — and explain how each one has been quietly compromised. The word "hijacked" isn't hyperbole. It's a diagnosis.One exchange stands out: Kevin's explanation of why two people can look at the same set of facts, weigh them differently, and reach completely different conclusions — and why that's actually how it's supposed to work. The problem isn't disagreement. The problem is that we've stopped being interested in each other.If you want to understand the root causes behind the noise — and think seriously about what restoring the social contract actually requires — this episode is worth your time.

In this week's edition of The Weekly Wolfson on No Way, Jose!, host Jose Galison welcomes back journalist Matt Wolfson for a no-holds-barred discussion on the current state of the political left. Drawing from Matt's latest piece in the Libertarian Institute, “Empire with a Humanitarian Face: Democrats Rebrand,” the two explore how the Democratic Party is attempting a fresh rebrand while preserving its core power structures. They examine the establishment's well-honed tactics for bringing rising progressive stars back into line and analyze the deliberate shift away from overt “woke” aesthetics even as identity politics remains deeply embedded in the party's DNA.The conversation also highlights key figures such as Zohran Mamdani, Platner, and Gavin Newsom, while drawing clear parallels to past political campaigns and careers like those of Obama and Clinton—showing how the same patterns of messaging, co-option, and image management continue to repeat. As always, The Weekly Wolfson delivers sharp geopolitics and ethnopolitics analysis free of corporate media spin.

Show NotesIn this episode, Simon Western speaks with political theorist and author Professor Brad Evans about the collapse of traditional working-class politics and the growing sense of abandonment across post-industrial communities. Drawing on Brad's experiences growing up in the South Wales Valleys, the conversation explores how solidarity, class identity and community structures have been eroded by deindustrialisation, neoliberalism and the rise of precarious labour. They reflect on why many working-class communities no longer feel represented by progressive politics and why populist movements are gaining traction.Simon and Brad discuss the emotional and political consequences of precarity - from Brexit and nationalism to homelessness, resentment and the rise of the “precariat.” Rather than dismissing people drawn toward nationalist or populist politics, they ask what happens when communities lose dignity, voice and recognition. The conversation challenges simplistic binaries of left and right, arguing instead for deeper listening, political humility, and a renewed understanding of interdependence.The episode also turns toward possibility. Simon introduces ideas from his work on “precarious interdependence,” asking how we might learn to live creatively within uncertainty rather than retreat into fear, certainty, and division. They discuss the role of art, culture, dialogue, and political imagination in creating more humane futures - futures grounded not in nostalgia for the past, but in new forms of solidarity and shared becoming.Key Reflections Working-class communities have not simply lost jobs, but also the social bonds and identities that once gave meaning and solidarity. Populist movements gain power when people feel politically abandoned, unseen and culturally dismissed. Precarity can produce fear and division, but it can also open possibilities for new forms of creativity, mutuality and transformation. Nationalism often emerges in spaces where class consciousness and collective identity have collapsed. Real political dialogue begins when we stop demonising opponents and start listening to the conditions shaping their lives. Art and culture are not luxuries; they are essential for reimagining society and creating empathetic futures.

His work and commentary have featured across major global media including the BBC, CNN, The New York Times, The Guardian, and Newsweek.
Andy Root is back, and this time he's got a fertility god on the cover of his book — which, if you've been paying any attention to his work, is not actually a detour. Baal and the Gods of More is what happens when Andy takes the background hum of economic critique that's been running through all his previous books and turns it all the way up, then runs it through First and Second Kings, Hartmut Rosa's theory of dynamic stabilization, Robert Gordon's economic history of the American special century, and Luther's commentary on the Magnificat, and comes out the other side with something genuinely uncomfortable and genuinely useful. The argument in brief: the church's anxiety about decline is not primarily a spiritual problem or a missional problem. It is a fertility cult problem. We have, like the Israelites under the Omride dynasty, decided that Yahweh needs a little help from the gods of growth — and we've done it so thoroughly that we can barely tell the difference anymore between faithful ministry and escalatory capital accumulation. Andy doesn't spare himself, or Tripp, or the emerging church movement, or the academic publishing world, or anyone who has ever refreshed their social media numbers and felt something. The conversation got real fast and stayed there. And yes, there is a Counting Crows footnote. Also: Tripp and Andy are going back to Bonhoeffer's house in Berlin in summer 2027 — two different tracks, one for personal and vocational formation, one for the theology nerds who want to read Bonhoeffer intensely and argue about it in his actual house.

What shapes your identity more — your faith or your politics? In this episode, sociologist George Yancey explores how Americansengage in public life today and why that engagement often feels louder, sharper and more polarized than in previous decades. George Yancey, professor of sociology at Baylor University, distinguishes public engagement from political engagement, noting that evangelicals have long contributed to the common good through volunteering, giving, mentoring and building institutions, even if those efforts receive less attention than politics.Together, NAE President Walter Kim and George Yancey examine how recent cultural and political dynamics have amplified partisan voices and intensified the pressures shaping Christian public witness.They also point toward a better way forward: a kingdom-centered identity marked by humility, curiosityand a deeper sense of belonging in Christ. You‘ll hear: How today's tensions are less about “Christian nationalism” and more about identity politics on both the right and left;Why political tribalism is so powerful in this moment; and How the Church can offer deeper belonging and a more faithful witness. As polarization grows, this episode invites Christians to re-center their identity — and engage public life with truth, love and concern for every neighbor.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Georgetown Professor Joshua Mitchell explains why America remains a deeply Hebraic, covenantal nation — and why the current culture war is best understood as a distorted continuation of the Reformation.From the Plato-Aristotle divide to Luther's turn to history, from Tocqueville's warnings to the spiritual economy of stain and redemption, Mitchell offers a profound diagnosis of where American Christianity stands today.

Forgiveness is one of the hardest, but most crucial parts of the Christian life. In this episode with Amy Orr-Ewing, we talk about why forgiveness matters right now, especially in a culture shaped by outrage, cancellation, and competing visions of justice. Amy helps clarify the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, why real forgiveness doesn't minimize harm or remove consequences, and how the cross makes a way to take evil seriously while still offering grace. We also get into trauma, shame, enemy love, and what it looks like to practice forgiveness in our lives and communities without cheapening it.Dr. Amy Orr-Ewing is an international author, speaker and theologian who addresses the deep questions of our day with meaningful answers found in the Christian Faith. She is the author of multiple books including bestsellers ‘Where is God in All the Suffering?', ‘Why Trust the Bible?', ‘Mary's Voice', and her latest ‘Forgiveness Reclaiming its Power in a Culture of Outrage and Fear' releases in 2026.Over the last twenty five years, Amy has spoken in more than 40 countries as a public advocate for the Christian faith including public lectures and open forums on university campuses, and addressing Politicians and Parliamentarians in the UK Parliament and staffers on Capitol Hill, the Senate and the West Wing of The White House. Amy speaks at conferences, businesses, banks, and churches about how theology connects with the deepest questions of life.In 2023, Amy was awarded the Alphege Medal for Evangelism and Witness by the Archbishop of Canterbury. She holds a D Dphil (doctorate) from the University of Oxford and is Honorary Lecturer at the School of Divinity, University of Aberdeen, Distinguished Scholar at Wheaton College Illinois and Founder of Advocate Collective.

Julian Epstein, former Chief Counsel to the House Judiciary Committee, joins Brian Kilmeade to deliver a blistering critique of the current state of the Democratic Party. Epstein discusses why uniform opposition to the administration during a time of war is "existential" for Democrats and why the party's shift toward identity politics and the "Islamification" of its platform may be turning it into a permanent minority party.

Our society seems to be tearing itself apart. One potential culprit is identity politics. But what is identity politics? Sociologist Dr. George Yancey joins to talk about his new book "Identity Politics in the United States: An Exploration of Identity in Red, White, and Blue". He explains the movements' history, what's wrong with it, and what we can do instead.

Which is the bigger mess?
Trump has decidedly built a white supremacist army within the government. And this was always the risk when the Department of Homeland Security was created after 9-11. Influential people warned at the time that our norms would not protect us against someone who was determined to violate them using DHS. At the same time, white people are putting themselves on the line in a way that is reminiscent of the abolitionists. Plus, some often overlooked elements of the Civil Rights Movement, Jared Kushner's offensive and absurd vision for a “New Gaza,” and the destruction of a jewel of journalism that was CBS.Snag the hoodie that will bring you comfort for life, the American Giant Classic Full Zip.
