Podcasts about politics and religion

Today on Uncommon Sense, we're discussing the tragic state of the modern world.From the protests in Ireland to growing frustration across Western nations, many people feel as though their voices are no longer being heard by the institutions that claim to represent them. I'll share why I support the right of people to protest and why I believe the demonstrations in Ireland have resonated with so many people around the world.We'll also discuss what I see as a deeper spiritual crisis affecting modern society. Many of the political, cultural, and social problems we face today are symptoms of a broader moral and spiritual decline, one that cannot be solved through politics alone.In this episode:My thoughts on the protests in IrelandWhy so many citizens now feel disconnected from their governmentsThe growing divide between ordinary people and powerful institutionsThe role of faith, morality, and personal responsibility in rebuilding societyWhy I believe many of today's crises point to a deeper spiritual battleWhether you agree or disagree, this episode is an invitation to think critically about the direction of our culture, our governments, and our future.--https://www.youversion.com/bible-app

“We can survive. Can we thrive? That's a different question.” — Corey NathanRobert Mueller died last week. Educated at Princeton, this Vietnam veteran won a Purple Heart and then enjoyed decades of public service under presidents of both parties. But the current president celebrated Mueller's death. Such are the vagaries of American history.In contrast, Corey Nathan — host of the Talking Politics and Religion Without Killing Each Other podcast — isn't celebrating Robert Mueller's death. Nathan is from suburban northern Los Angeles County, very much at the heart of the (mythical?) American center. We discussed whether it's possible to have a civic conversation anymore. Like so many Americans, Nathan falls back on what he calls “data.” Apparently 85% of Americans are what a recent study calls the “exhausted majority.” They see themselves as anything but extreme. All they want to do is take the kids to soccer practice, enjoy their barbecue, and talk to the neighbour without the conversation degenerating into verbal war.Nathan's own story offers hope. He grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family whose roots go back eight hundred years to what is now Chernihiv in Ukraine. In his late twenties, he became a born-again Christian. His father seriously considered sitting Shiva for him — the mourning ritual for a dead family member. But he valued his relationship with his son more than his theological convictions. Twenty-five years later, the conversations are richer than ever. If an Orthodox Jewish father and his born-again Christian son can keep talking, maybe even the current American President could sit Shiva for Robert Mueller. Five Takeaways•       85% of Americans Are the Exhausted Majority: The Hidden Tribes study by More in Common found that only 6–7% on the right and 7–8% on the left are what we'd think of as extremes. The rest — 85% — are far more nuanced in their views. They want to go to the barbecue, take the kids to soccer practice, and have a conversation with the neighbour without it turning into a war. The conflict entrepreneurs on both sides have taken all the oxygen.•       Mueller Was Everything We Say We Want in Our Kids: Purple Heart. Ivy League education. Used his degrees for public service instead of money. Served under presidents of both parties. Stayed on at the FBI after 9/11 when the country needed him. And the current president said he was glad he died.•       ICE Came to the Neighbouring Church: Nathan's pastor had to have the conversation: if ICE comes, they're welcome to worship — but here are our legal obligations. A suburban mom was shot in her front seat two months ago. Is anything visibly wrong in the American suburbs? Today, at his house, no. But these things are happening all over the country.•       His Father Almost Sat Shiva for Him: Nathan grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family. In his late twenties, he became a born-again Christian. His father seriously considered performing the mourning ritual for a living son. But he valued the relationship with his child more than his theological convictions. Twenty-five years later, the conversations are richer than ever.•       We Can Survive. Can We Thrive? Nathan's family lived in what is now Chernihiv, Ukraine, for eight hundred years. One day to the next, nothing changed — until the Cossacks burned the houses and the Bolsheviks came. Democracy isn't perfect, but it's the system that lets us thrive, not just survive. About the GuestCorey Nathan is the host and producer of Talking Politics and Religion Without Killing Each Other, a top 1% podcast. He lives in northern Los Angeles County.References:•       Talking Politics and Religion Without Killing Each Other — Nathan's podcast.•       Episode 2849: How Stories Can Save Us — Colum McCann on Narrative Four, referenced in the conversation.•       Episode 2846: How to Be Agreeably Disagreeable — Julia Minson on disagreeing better.

Cody Alexander and Felix Johnson break down the "politics and religion" of defensive football by analyzing the technical "why" behind modern run fit structures. Learn how elite NFL defenses use even and odd spacing, gap-and-a-half techniques, and hybridized fronts to cancel gaps and combat modern spread offenses.—In this episode:Run fit structures are defined by the “politics and religion” of defensive football, acting as the foundational geometry that dictates roster construction and secondary coverage.Box spacing is categorized as “even” when there is an open B-gap bubble and “odd” when both B-gaps are closed by a defender.Modern spread offenses frequently “drain the box” by using perimeter threats like bubble screens or flat routes to pull defenders away, forcing a standard seven-man box to function as a six-man fit.Hybridized front techniques, such as the “lag nose” and “4i,” allow defenses to cancel gaps and squeeze vertical double teams while remaining in nickel personnel.Elite NFL defenses, including the Seahawks and Patriots, increasingly utilize “passive pressures” and “read stunts” to reset the line of scrimmage and eliminate gaps without overextending via traditional blitzes.—Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction: The Politics and Religion of Football02:01 - Defining the Box: 4-3 vs 3-4 Binary Terms04:14 - Even vs Odd Spacing Explained08:43 - Seven, Eight, and Nine-Man Spacing11:41 - How Spread Offenses Drain the Box19:53 - Interior Techniques: Lag, Shade, and G-Nose25:21 - The Rise of the 4i and Tight Fronts29:56 - Gap and a Half vs Jet Techniques34:02 - Lever-Spill-Lever vs Spill-Overlap Fits39:50 - Hybridizing Fronts: Bear, Penny, and Walk Looks44:33 - Why the NFL's Best Defenses Stunt the Most51:00 - Closing: Multiplicity and Purposeful Stunting—» Join Felix and Cody each Wednesday as we dive deep into the game we love!MatchQuarters is a reader-supported publication.

Treating politics like religion, and vice versa, is why so many of us keep getting frustrated and disappointed, and why our societies are becoming weaker.

Projection is one of the oldest psychological and psychic manipulation tactics — and it's the backbone of the Lack Matrix, a system built on the lie that there's not enough. In this episode of the Psychic Liberation Series, we explore how projection operates in the psyche, how it's weaponized in politics and religion, and why it's the core cult tactic that keeps humanity divided. When powerful systems “pick up the cause” of the oppressed, they often use moral manipulation — turning empathy into control, forcing guilt, and labeling dissent as evil. This inversion of empathy keeps us psychically trapped in the very hatred and fear we're trying to heal.You'll learn how projection: ✨ Functions psychologically as a defense mechanism and collectively as social control ✨ Fuels the Lack Matrix, the lie of scarcity and unworthiness ✨ Is used by politics and religion to control the moral narrative and colonize meaning ✨ Keeps Empaths and sensitive souls looping in guilt, fear, and false virtue ✨ Can be alchemized through radical self-honesty and sovereigntyThis message is for Empaths, Mystics, Healers, and Witchy Entrepreneurs who are waking up from psychic abuse and reclaiming their creative sovereignty.

You've been sold a lie: "Never talk about politics or religion." That wasn't a rule for civility; it was a demonic strategy to silence the Church. While believers prioritize politeness, evil shouts its gospel of godlessness from every rooftop, and our culture is collapsing under the weight of our silence.This episode is a declaration of war on the cowardly cliché that has muzzled Christians for a generation. We've mistaken being peaceful for being passive, but the Bible doesn't call us to be silent and light—it calls us to be salt and light.It's time to expose the lie, reclaim our voices, and bring Christ back into the conversations that shape eternity.Buckle up. We're shattering the silence."What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs." – Matthew 10:27Episode Highlights:06:14 - Silence isn't neutrality. It's denial. And denial comes with consequences. When you refuse to talk about God, you're not protecting peace, you're preserving darkness. When you refuse to talk about politics, you're not being humble. You're abandoning stewardship.11:53 - The reason politics and religion are off limits is because they shape everything else. If you can silence people about God and government, you can reshape morality, identity and freedom without resistance. That's not politeness, it's propaganda.30:04 - Too many believers treat obedience like a suggestion and approval like a commandment. But every time you choose to stay silent and fit in, you're bowing to a false God called acceptance. Obedience to God is always going to offend somebody who serves a different master.Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite

Religion has probably always been a part of politics, but, in modern America, it's often linked with how the Civil Rights movement was powered from the pulpit and pews and the conservative "Silent Majority" Evangelical Christian political movement that began in the 80s. There's an assumption that when preachers and other religious figures take public political positions these influence the flock. But, do they? The data suggest otherwise.Then, we're revisiting the national issue of loneliness to talk about some really interesting data sets that speak to it in very different ways.Finally, Lee brings it home with a crazy fun fact right out of the Flintstones.

Is America a nation Chosen by God? A New Jerusalem and Shining City on a Hill? What is the shape of Christian Nationalism today?Now 4 years past Jan 6, 2021 and anticipating the next term of presidential office, Yale professors Eliyahu Stern and Philip Gorski join Evan Rosa for a conversation about religion, politics, and the shape of Christian nationalism now.Together they discuss what religion really means in sociological and historical terms; the difference between religions of power and religions of law or morality; the American syncretism of pagan Christianity (perhaps captured in the Qnon Shaman with the horns and facepaint); the connection between nationalism and the desire to be a Chosen People; the supersessionism at the root of seeing the Christian conquest of America as a New Jerusalem; and how ordinary citizens come to adopt the tenets of Christian Nationalism.Eliyahu Stern is Professor of Modern Jewish Intellectual and Cultural History in the Departments of Religious Studies and History and his current project is entitled No Where Left to Go: Jews and the Global Right from 1977 to October 7.Philip Gorski is Frederick and Laura Goff Professor of Sociology at Yale University and is author of The Flag and the Cross: White Christian Nationalism and the Threat to American Democracy (with Samuel Perry) as well as American Covenant: A History of Civil Religion from the Puritans to the Present.Special thanks to our production assistant Zoë Halaban for pitching this conversation.About Eliyahu SternEliyahu Stern is Professor of Modern Jewish Intellectual and Cultural History in the Departments of Religious Studies and History.

In this episode Chris reconnects with friend of the show--Daniel Torridon of the Onion Unlimited podcast. We talk about U.S. politics in the new Trump era and the English perspective on it; we compare and contrast U.S. and U.K. political parties and platforms...and then pivot to our mutually favorite subject--Religion. Daniel discusses his journey from a repressive upbringing as a Jehovah's Witness, to his discovery of Pandeism and then his rapid subsequent descent through related systems such as Panentheism, Advaita Vedanta and philosophical Monism.

Jesus, Politics, and Religion by Matt Rawle

As we barrel toward America's 250th, one could argue that if we crack up before we get there (some bad days we'd take even odds), it'll have something to do with the complexity of being in charge of executing one of the founders' biggest ideas — that the church and the state were to be separate in this new nation of theirs. (It had been so much “easier” when the king told all us peasants what religion we were.) Our framers, for the first time in history, asserted that a citizenry had “natural rights” as human beings, given to them only by God, to follow (and be responsible for) our individual consciences — including the right to not believe at all. These rights could then not be taken by the government. Those dudes in tights, both Christian and Deist, had birthed a country where all sorts of religious belief would thrive. Turns out high principles about freedom for everyone all at the same time wouldn't be a piece of cake and after 250-ish years of disagreement, we're still haggling over those darn specifics — partly because we're masters of not seeing the log in our own eyes.

Some recent polling suggests that the number of those who identify with no religion has hit a ceiling, and it may even be declining. At the same time, a number of high-profile cultural influencers—even some formerly hostile to the faith—have either converted to Christianity or announced that they now identify as “cultural Christians.” Moreover, religion and politics, once considered verboten to mix, now seem to find themselves deeply intertwined. How do we assess these cultural and political developments from an evangelical perspective? Is it really the case that society is becoming more receptive to Christianity? Are all these developments positive for the Church, or should we take a more cautious approach to evaluating what all this means for the future?  A listener asks what he can share with non-Catholics to perhaps change their minds. 00:00 | Intro 01:32 | Bishop Barron's update on the diocesan pastoral center 02:24 | Tracing the decline of Christianity in the West 06:07 | Assessing the decline of “nones” today 09:59 | Men, women, and trends of religious disaffiliation 13:45 | Public conversions and the indispensability of Christianity in culture 18:46 | Christianity, moral principles, and the legal system 23:09 | Is there broader cultural significance for the National Eucharistic Revival? 24:26 | Hopeful signs for Christianity in conversation 27:54 | Is interest in a broad Christianity simply good? 28:59 | What we can learn from the African and Eastern Churches 30:42 | Listener question 33:00 | Join the Word on Fire Institute Links: Pew Research Data: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/01/24/has-the-rise-of-religious-nones-come-to-an-end-in-the-us/   Data on Women Leaving the Church: https://www.americansurveycenter.org/newsletter/young-women-are-leaving-church-in-unprecedented-numbers/   Washington Examiner: “Faith and flag: Trump allies push for deeply conservative second term”   Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/   NOTE: Do you like this podcast? Become a Word on Fire IGNITE member!

"Restoring the Remnant" is our sermon series through Micah. "Politics and Religion" is the third sermon in this series. Micah continues with his third oracle of impending judgement upon the nations of Israel and Judah. In some of his strongest language, Micah condemns both the political and religious leaders of God's people and promised there would be no escaping the destruction that was coming. If you made the decision to trust Jesus, or God challenged you in a specific way during this sermon, please let us know by contacting us at hello@newheightswv.com, so that we can celebrate and pray with you!

This Postmodern Realities episode is a conversation with JOURNAL author Anne Kennedy about her online article, which is part of her ongoing Column Series, Theological Trends ,  entitled “Blessings and Liberty: The Politics and Religion of David French”.  This particular article is also a Viewpoint article. Viewpoint articles address relevant contemporary issues in discernment and apologetics from a particular perspective that is usually not shared by all Christians, with the intended result that Christians' thinking on that issue will be stimulated and enhanced (whether or not people end up agreeing with the author's opinion). https://www.equip.org/articles/blessings-and-liberty-the-politics-and-religion-of-david-french/Editors' Note: Although the Christian Research Institute is a non-political, non-partisan organization, an intersection exists between politics, the public square, and a biblically grounded articulation and defense of the historic Christian faith. For more than 45 years, the CHRISTIAN RESEARCH JOURNAL has addressed a wide variety of issues within this intersection, especially concerning Christian ethics informed by Christian orthodoxy, including the sanctity of life (abortion, reproductive technologies, euthanasia), marriage, sexuality, LGBTQ matters, war, religious freedom, and other biblically relevant topics of our times. Anne Kennedy's insightful commentary on the writings and influence of the evangelical political commentator David French aligns well within the JOURNAL'S purview.Related podcasts and articles mentioned: Episode 394 Marketing An “Almost” Jesus—Evaluating The “He Gets Us” CampaignMarketing An “Almost” Jesus—Evaluating The “He Gets Us” CampaignAudio Version of Christian Research Journals Reads Episode 33 Marketing An “Almost” Jesus—Evaluating The “He Gets Us” CampaignOther recent articles and podcasts by this author:Episode 374 Did Pope Francis Authorize Priests to Bless Same-Sex Couples?Did Pope Francis Authorize Priests to Bless Same-Sex Couples?Episode 386 Can a Christian Attend a Gay Wedding?

Jason Whitlock's conference Roll Call 2.0 has invited Mormon Glenn Beck to speak. A lot of Christians are asking why Voddie Baucham and other Christians are speaking alongside a member of the LDS church when the event is supposed to be "honoring our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." Mormons online are coming to defend their faith and claim that Christians who would critique Mormonism aren't really believers. We also look at the ecumenical arm of the Chosen series and whether or not believers should be teaming up with Mormons for the Gospel. Are our LDS neighbors are our brothers in Christ?

We have been told that the two topics we should never discuss are politics and religion. But is that true? Of course not! Despite the fact that the loudest voices in society tell us to keep our thoughts and opinions to ourselves, we need to learn how to have meaningful, important discussions without hating those with whom we disagree. Today and The March or Die Show I have the privilege of interviewing Corey Nathan who is the host of the "Talkin' Politics and Religion" podcast about the best way to have important conversations. This interview was both practical and helpful and one that you can put to use today. Don't be afraid to have the hard conversations-just have them in a way that allows everyone involved to benefit.  To learn more about Corey Nathan find him at https://www.politicsandreligion.us/ or on socials @coreysnathan  Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

What do we make of religion and politics in today's ongoing culture war? In the words of Ben Shapiro, "Facts don't care about your feelings." But does the left-wing care about the facts? As the far left continues to lead primarily by feelings and emotions, many are shifting away from its current radical extremism and finding solidarity with conservatives. But can liberals and conservatives truly find common ground? In this highly anticipated interview, New York Times best-selling author, comedian, and TV personality Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report joins Frank to share his journey out of leftism and reveals why he's choosing to use his platform to champion and moderate civil, open conversations between people who have opposing worldviews. They address questions like: How did The Rubin Report get started? If Christianity were true, would Dave become a Christian? How is The Rubin Report different from other political shows? What do classical liberals believe? How has the Democratic Party become the party of government censorship, big tech censorship, and cancel culture? Although Dave identifies as gay, he doesn't agree with many of the LGBTQ political goals. Why not?   Not afraid to tackle hot-button social and political issues, The Rubin Report has been a safe space for dialogue, challenging viewers from all walks of life. This episode is sure to be a step in the right direction for unity among liberals and conservatives. PLEASE NOTE: Yes, we know that Dave Rubin is an openly gay man. CrossExamined.org does not always agree with and affirm all the held beliefs of our guests. Dave did not agree with everything Frank said when he was on The Rubin Report last month either. However, it is good to have dialogue and ask questions of non-Christian guests to see if they are open to Christ, as you will hear Frank do with Dave. We also welcome guests who can add value to specific topics on which we do agree. Despite our noted disagreements, Dave gets a lot right.
