Podcasts about white too long

Donald Trump has enjoyed strong support from white Evangelical Christians since his first run for the presidency. But recently, he has made a specific brand of Christianity a centerpiece of his campaign. He repeatedly casts himself as a messiah figure, even comparing his legal troubles to the persecution of Christ. He regularly ends his rallies with prayer. And last week he started hocking a version of the Bible that also includes copies of the founding documents of the United States. “Trump is now wrapping his candidacy around this idea of White Christian Nationalism,” says Robert P. Jones, president and founder of the Public Religion Research Institute, or PRRI. He is also author of two books about the relationship between race and religion in the United States, “The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy,” as well as “White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity.” Jones joins Diane on this week's episode of On My Mind to talk about what's behind the attempts to build The Church of Trump, and why he sees it as a dangerous development for the country.

This month we are joined by Robert P Jones, President and Founder of Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) and the New York Times Best Selling author of several books, including: The End of White Christian America and White Too Long. Most recently, you might have heard the hubbub about his latest book,The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy and the Path to a Shared American Future. We invited Robby to speak with us today, because Robert's work with PRRI, coupled with his outstanding work as an historian and the homework he has done as a southern white man has the power to help understand our current moment and point the way forward toward the Beloved Community.

In this very special episode of Soul of the Nation, we revisit our conversation with Robert P. Jones, from July 2020.Robert P. Jones, CEO and founder of the Public Religion Research Institute and the author of White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity, speaks with Rev. Jim Wallis about how white American Christianity and white supremacy collaborate throughout our nation's history. Jones says, "[Racism is] very, very deep in [white Christian] theology and it's going to take more than a couple of potlucks with the African American church down the street. It's going to take a serious reconsideration of evangelical theology top to bottom. I liken it to something like a bone marrow transplant. It's so deep that you basically have to kill the immune system and bring someone close to death in order to finally bring them to health. I think that's the situation we're in after hundreds of years of this being built into the very DNA of white Christian identity in this country."See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Note: there is a leveling discrepancy between the intro comments and the interview, which begins around the 10:30 mark. There's been two major shootings in the last two weeks. I try to piece together some thoughts, and combine a couple things from recent essays, in the intro to this re-released episode with Robert Jones. I guess it's best to just listen. Essays I adapt for the intro: Let the circle be broken. Live Free and Die. The interview is part of season 1 of Powers & Principalities, which is about white evangelicalism & Christian nationalism. Interview description: My guest is Robert Jones, founder and CEO of PRRI (The Public Religion Research Institute), and author of the recent book White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity (Amazon, Bookshop). In this discussion, we talk about how his book reveals the ways white American Christianity's history of white supremacy pervades all denominations - white evangelicals, mainline Protestants, and white Catholics. We discuss the "restricted moral vision" of white Christians, the findings of the Racism Index, and much more. Boilerplate: Exvangelical is a production of The Post-Evangelical Post, LLC.

Robert P. Jones discusses the ways his research has led to a shocking conclusion: “If you take your average white American, and you add Christian identity, they move up the racism index, not down.” And such a confession, he says, is a necessary starting point before there can be any reconciliation.

Data from the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) has found that white Christians—including mainline Protestants, Catholics, and evangelicals—are the most racist religious group in America, Robert P. Jones, the CEO of PRRI, says this isn't a bug within white American Christianity, but a feature. He discusses his new book “White Too Long” about the lingering legacy of white supremacy in the church. Also this week, apologist Josh McDowell joins those saying CRT is the greatest threat facing the church, but does his argument contradict itself?

*Please note: due to technical difficulties, the podcast and video audio begin 12 min 5 sec into the worship service. “Wait, is that in the Bible? I'm pretty sure I've never heard that story before!” These words may be akin to what ran through your head when you heard this passage from Ezra. I know something akin to that ran through mine when I first remember hearing it in seminary. Not in Sunday school. Or youth group. Or even in college. Even though I had read through the Bible all the way through before I got to seminary, it was then that I really understood what is happening in this passage here at the end of Ezra. In case you don't know or remember the context, Ezra is one of the leaders of the people of God following the Babylonian Exile. The Israelites are allowed to return, in order to rebuild. The books of Ezra and Nehemiah tell the story of this rebuild, including construction of the wall around the Temple, and rebuilding of the social structure around the Torah. Ezra was a priest, and in many ways, a hero to God's people from this period. After years of Exile, a tenuous return, and shaky rebuild, it looks like they will be united under Ezra and the other leaders of their day. And then Shecaniah shows up. We don't know much about Shecaniah, besides this event, but his words here have tremendous effect on the community of faith, and on generations who have come since. His argument is basically this: 1. God wants us to follow the Torah (which is the main point of the book of Ezra), 2. the Torah says that you should have no other gods before me, 3. some of our men have married women from other faiths and cultures and races, 4. therefore, the only way to be faithful to God is to send these women and the children from these marriages back to their homes and most likely to their deaths on the way there, alone and unprotected in the wilderness 5. thus impressing God with our purity. Huh. OK, then. Biblical scholar Johanna Bos suggests that Shecaniah demonstrates what she calls “creative exegesis.” [Exegesis is just a fancy word for Bible study and life application.] In other words, the Torah does not say that men who have married wives from other faiths and cultures and races must divorce them and send them back to their homes (and probably to their deaths). Shecaniah reads into scripture something that seems to come more from his own cultural presuppositions and bigotry and racism. In fact, Bos suggests, Shecaniah completely misquotes the Torah, which actually suggests on more than one occasion that the community of faith must care for and protect “the stranger,” those from outside the community who come seeking refuge in their midst. In Hebrew, the word is gar and is sometimes translated as guest or sojourner. Even though these women seem to be precisely the stranger that God commands care for, Shecaniah uses a different word—nokree—putting them in a different category and thus suggesting that the Torah's command for care no longer applies. Shecaniah dehumanizes these women and places them in the category of God's enemies. And the priest Ezra and the officials go along with it, and enact Shecaniah's suggestion. According to Bos, this creative exegesis comes not from the pages of Scripture, but from a much closer culprit: fear. She writes, “Fear looks for a scapegoat. The officials and Ezra locate a scapegoat in the group of women who have been taken into marriage by the Jews.” Because they are afraid of the other and of God and God's retribution, these women and children are sacrificed, sending hundreds of them to their deaths. What do we do with this story? Unsurprisingly, this story of exclusion and violence has led to practices of exclusion and violence. A few weeks ago, we had a conversation in the Two-Way about how Christians have used the Bible to denounce multiracial marriages. They asked what part of the Bible folks have used to attack those marriages…and this passage from Ezra is one of them. Likewise, this passage has been used to defend exclusion and violence based on race in multiple times and contexts. If the people of God could do this, based on one's race and culture, then why can't we do the same? Robert P. Jones writes in his book White Too Long that this is actually a common practice of many Christians and many churches in the United States. He delineates 400 years of white supremacy in this county, much of it originated by Christians, supported by churches, and defended by Scripture. Lynchings. Jim Crow laws. State brutality. Redlining. Discrimination based on skin color or simply on names perceived to be of a certain race. Cultural oppression through symbols and statues. Violence against those in multiracial marriages and against their children. Even the very institution of slavery itself. Defended by Scripture. Each of these examples of “creative exegesis,” based on some theological conception of “purity,” Jones says. We must keep ourselves pure. Holy. Blameless before God. Which, in the U.S. in the last 400 years, means “white.” “If the people of God could enact this exclusion and violence, based on one's race and culture, then why can't we do the same?” Jones recognizes and writes that in our country, racism is not just something that Black people have to deal with. That indigenous people have to deal with. That Latino and Latina people have to deal with. That racial and religious minorities have to deal with. He writes that racism and white supremacy are a disease that white people must deal with. A theological virus that has eaten us from the inside for 400 years. A spiritual sickness that we must find a way to diagnose, and eradicate, and immunize ourselves from. Jones writes that our very souls might depend on it: “The question today is whether we white Christians will also awaken to see what has happened to us, and to grasp once and for all how white supremacy has robbed us of our own heritage and of our ability to be in right relationships with our fellow citizens, with ourselves, and even with God. Reckoning with white supremacy, for us, is now an unavoidable moral choice.” Period. End of book. Mic dropped. What do we do with this story? Did you notice the very end of the passage that I read? I sure didn't, not even when I was awakened to the reality of this passage in seminary. Let me read it again, in case you missed it like I did: Only Jonathan son of Asahel and Jahzeiah son of Tikvah opposed this, and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levites supported them. Jonathan. Jahzeiah. Meshullam. Shabbathai. One verse for all of them combined. We know nothing about them, except the recording that they were in opposition to this practice. We don't know why they opposed it. Maybe they wanted the expulsion of these wives to happen more quickly or maybe they didn't even want to allow them to live until they made it into the wilderness. But what if they heard the argument of Shekeniah, and the acquiescence to that argument by Ezra, and the vigor with which the people of God cheered the decision? And what if these four men said, “this is not right. This ‘creative exegesis' is not Torah. This is not the God I know.” What if they looked these women in the eye and saw a guest, a stranger, a sojourner in need of protection? What if they saw these children, crying in fear, and watched the gleam in the eye of the men sending them away, and said “we cannot be silent.” What if they saw what was happening and believed that the only way they could act in accordance with their faith was to resist. To stand against the exclusion and violence and scapegoating and fear that was encouraged on that day. What if they used their power and their privilege—all four as men with a voice in the assembly, and two of them from the powerful family of the Levitical priests—to speak up and speak out. Jonathan. Jahzeiah. Meshullam. Shabbathai. Members of the resistance. The task of reading the historic Scriptures of God and applying them in current context is a difficult one. Shecaniah and Ezra and the leaders here thought that they were being faithful. They thought that they were protecting the ways of God. They thought they were defending purity. They believed that family and tradition and culture as they knew it must be safeguarded at all costs, against those on the outside. But there is another way. In this passage, it appears that there is another voice. Members of the resistance chose inclusivity. Chose love of neighbor and stranger and enemy and other. Regardless of race. Regardless of difference. They chose a different way. And a few hundred years later there lived another member of the resistance. Around him were those who felt the need to protect the ways of God, to defend purity, to safeguard family and tradition and culture as they knew it. But this member of the resistance picked up the Torah and chose inclusivity. Chose love of neighbor and stranger and enemy and other. Looked at the poor and vulnerable and lonely and hurting and said, “these are my mother…these are my brothers…all those who do the will of God is my brother and sister and mother.” Jesus chose the way of resistance. Jesus stood up to those who would send out the “other” into the cold rain of exclusion. He picked up the children. He cared for the women. He rejected the rejection of those in power and authority, and said “we cannot be silent.” Stephen D. Jones—no relation—some of you will know is the pastor at First Baptist Church of Kansas City, Missouri and co-pastor with Dezo. Steve has written a novel on the life of Galusha Anderson. Galusha Anderson was a pastor in St. Louis, at Second Baptist Church in the city, and served during the Civil War. Anderson served in a divided country, in a divided city, in a divided congregation. St. Louis was a border city between North and South, and those in his neighborhood and church sent sons to fight and die against each other on opposite sides of the war. The safe thing for Galusha to do would have been to avoid the topic of slavery, which in fact he did for some time. But finally, his reading of the Gospel and of the times meant he could no longer stay silent. In the face of the violence of slavery, he preached a sermon that explained how slavery and white supremacy and the Gospel could not be concurrent, and that this practice must not be allowed to continue. Galusha Anderson joined the resistance. But it did not come without a price. Confederate sympathizers left the church immediately, never returning to the congregation. His life was often threatened. The church was attacked during a worship service. Newspapers denounced him in print. He was literally at the top of a hit list created by Confederate sympathizers. His courage came with a price, but it was one that he was willing to pay. Today, we remember Second Baptist and Galusha Anderson as heroes of the faith, who chose Gospel love over supremacy and hatred. I conclude this morning from Steve's novel, written from the perspective of a pastor in crisis. Perhaps they can be words to inspire and challenge us today: “What was boiling within me was the gospel truth, as I knew it. It was of a Savior who lifted people from bondage. It was a God who created all of us equal, no matter the color of our skin. It was of a gospel that proclaimed freedom, upon which our nation was founded and the truth of which was boldly proclaimed in our nation's founding documents. And it was a failure of our nation to live up to our own ideals—slavery and its continued practice being chief among our sins….In my deepest heart, I want to believe that it was gospel truth itself that I could no longer contain…to not speak out was wrong and to maintain the peace at the cost of the gospel truth was wrong.” Jonathan. Jahzeiah. Meshullam. Shabbathai. Jesus. Galusha Anderson. Members of the resistance, all. May we follow in their footsteps today.

Robert P. Jones talks to us about his book "White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity."  

“We know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him. For the death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God. So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its passions.” (Romans 6:9–12 ESV) Happy Easter from the Substance! The tomb is empty, Jesus has defeated death and his kingdom is coming. In this dawning reality, the false anthropology of White Supremacy must be understood and turned from to align with the Biblical view of humanity. Joining us for this topic is Daniel Hill pastor of River City Community Church in Chicago, who has written two books on the spiritual battle against White Supremacy, White Awake and White Lies, and has a passion for helping churches understand the influence of this pervasive and harmful ideology.

We have had this interview on the books since August, but talking to him after the election turned out to be even better as we were able to discuss polls and how we understand the white church in the political landscape. I hope you will pick up the book, but in the meantime, enjoy this conversation.

On today's episode, Ryan and Colton dive into the history of Black and White Church. Why are our churches so segregated? Why do we have a black church and a white church? Did this happen naturally or was there things that made this happen?    As always, you can follow us on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/bnwchurch/ .

This week The Substance welcomes Robert P. Jones to the show. Robert is the CEO and Founder of the Public Religion Research Institute, he holds an MDiv and a PhD in religion, and is the author of the recent, critically acclaimed “White Too Long.” White Too Long is combination of American history, survey data from PRRI, and the author's own personal story. Join us as we dive in to some difficult but necessary topics such as: how our sin affects our theology, the evils in the American Church's history that caused Robert to write many portions of the book through tears, and how many Christians use the defense of calling something “liberal” or “political” as a means of avoiding genuine reflection on the merits of a viewpoint or argument. And a huge THANK YOU to Robby's team and the folks at Simon & Schuster for providing some giveaway copies of White Too Long. Details for the giveaway can be found on our Instagram.

So in this fourth installment of the fall podcast series on "Be the Church," Rev. Sara WG & Rev. Dr. Christian Collins Winn explore our Faith & Justice reading White Too Long by Robert P. Jones and offer some reflections about what the text might invite of and from us as we seek to Be the Church. You can pick up your copy of the book at Church and then join us on Tuesday, October 10th at 6:30 pm via Zoom ID: 541-870-2251 for a conversation and discussion about the book and some deeper reflections on how we can continue to Be the Church in our time.

My guest this week is Robert Jones, founder and CEO of PRRI (The Public Religion Research Institute), and author of the recent book White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity (Amazon, Bookshop). In this discussion, we talk about how his book reveals the ways white American Christianity's history of white supremacy pervades all denominations - white evangelicals, mainline Protestants, and white Catholics. We discuss the "restricted moral vision" of white Christians, the findings of the Racism Index, and much more.

White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity by Robert P. Jones PRRI.org Drawing on history, public opinion surveys, and personal experience, Robert P. Jones delivers a provocative examination of the unholy relationship between American Christianity and white supremacy, and issues an urgent call for white Christians to reckon with this legacy for the sake of themselves […] The post The Chris Voss Show Podcast – White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity by Robert P. Jones appeared first on Chris Voss Official Website.

Doug Pagitt sits down with Robert P. Jones to talk about his new book, “White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity.”   Jones is the CEO and Founder of PRRI (Public Religion Research Institute) and a leading scholar and commentator on religion, culture and politics. His book, “The End of White Christian America,” won the 2019 Grawemeyer Award in Religion. He also writes a column for The Atlantic online on politics and culture and is frequently featured in major national media such as MSNBC, CNN, NPR, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and others.

Robert P. Jones, CEO and founder of the Public Religion Research Institute and the author of White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity, speaks with Rev. Jim Wallis about how white American Christianity and white supremacy collaborate throughout our nation's history. Jones says, "[Racism is] very, very deep in [white Christian] theology and it's going to take more than a couple of potlucks with the African American church down the street. It's going to take a serious reconsideration of evangelical theology top to bottom. I liken it to something like a bone marrow transplant. It's so deep that you basically have to kill the immune system and bring someone close to death in order to finally bring them to health. I think that's the situation we're in after hundreds of years of this being built into the very DNA of white Christian identity in this country."
