290. TNE RECAPS: Kamala Harris is Black, Olympics 2024, & Project 2025 Explained

In this episode of the New Evangelicals Podcast, Tim and April discuss various topics, including the controversy surrounding the Olympic opening ceremony, Trump's remarks at the Believers Summit, and their experience visiting the Ark Encounter. They express frustration with the outrage over trivial matters and the lack of attention given to more important issues. They also highlight the need for Christians to represent Jesus well and focus on issues that truly matter. In this conversation, Tim and April discuss various topics, including the controversy surrounding the Believer's Summit, the problematic views of Doug Wilson, Trump's appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists convention, and the implications of Project 2025. They also touch on the absurd interpretations of the Olympic opening ceremony and announce their attendance at Theology Beer Camp. Takeaways The outrage over trivial matters distracts from more important issues that require attention. The focus on cultural controversies often stems from a weak and narcissistic form of evangelicalism. Jesus does not need defending; he needs people to represent him well. The interpretation of Trump's remarks at the Believers Summit can vary, but it is concerning to hear him suggest that Christians won't have to vote again. The outrage over the Olympic opening ceremony reflects a fear and discomfort with people living as their authentic selves. There is a need to prioritize issues such as genocide, poverty, hate, and greed over trivial controversies. The Believer's Summit sparked controversy due to the presence of controversial figures like Doug Wilson, whose views on sex and slavery are highly problematic. Trump's appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists convention was met with criticism, as he evaded direct questions and made insensitive remarks. Project 2025, a conservative playbook, continues to be a cause for concern, despite the director stepping down amid backlash from Trump. Tim and April will be attending Theology Beer Camp, an event that brings together theologians, podcasters, and individuals seeking a better way forward in their faith. Chapters 03:06 Traveling and the Ark Encounter 09:07 The Olympic Controversy 14:21 The Weakness of Evangelicalism 17:39 Interpreting Trump's Remarks 24:17 The Power of Words and Prioritizing Issues 40:02 Controversy Surrounding the Believer's Summit 41:25 Problematic Views of Doug Wilson 48:38 Trump's Appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists Convention 52:53 Implications of Project 2025 01:14:25 Absurd Interpretations of the Olympic Opening Ceremony 01:18:13 Announcement: Attendance at Theology Beer Camp ______________ REGISTER TO VOTE If you'd like to support our work, you can DONATE here!

228. The Surprising New Data on Christian Nationalism // Tim Whitaker

Summary In this episode, Tim delves into the PRRI data on Christian nationalism, highlighting the percentage of Americans who adhere to or reject Christian nationalist views. Tim explores the geographical breakdown of Christian nationalism support, its correlation with political affiliation, and the interpretation of Christian nationalism in the black community. Takeaways Christian nationalism is supported by approximately 30% of Americans, with 10% being adherents and 20% being sympathizers. Support for Christian nationalism is higher in Republican-leaning states and among white evangelical Protestants. Black Christian nationalists interpret the five statements used to measure Christian nationalist views differently, focusing on the fight for equity rather than taking over and using power to control others. Christian nationalism is correlated with support for Trump, far-right news sources, and apocalyptic views of political struggle. Engaging with adherents of Christian nationalism may be challenging, but there may be opportunities to persuade sympathizers.

273. TNE RECAPS: Gateway Church Covers Up the Truth

Summary The conversation discusses the technical difficulties faced before the recording and the humorous incidents that occurred. It then delves into the scandal surrounding Robert Morris and Gateway Church, where allegations of sexual abuse have been made against Morris. The conversation highlights the contradictory statements made by Gateway Church and the need for a thorough investigation. It also addresses the toxic culture within evangelical churches, the impact of purity culture, and the importance of holding leaders accountable. Cindy, the alleged victim, releases a statement expressing her disappointment in the church's response and calling for justice and reform. In this conversation, Tim and April discuss the hypocrisy and lack of accountability within certain religious circles, particularly in relation to the handling of sexual abuse allegations. They highlight the case of Robert Morris, a megachurch pastor who platformed Mark Driscoll, despite Driscoll's history of abusive behavior. They also criticize the selective outrage and silence of certain evangelical influencers, such as Meg Basham and Allie Stuckey, who condemn Morris but defend John MacArthur, despite his involvement in covering up child abuse within his own church. The conversation emphasizes the need for accountability and the dismantling of toxic systems within religious institutions. Takeaways Technical difficulties can occur before a recording, but it is important to persevere and find solutions. The scandal surrounding Robert Morris and Gateway Church highlights the need for thorough investigations and accountability within religious institutions. Toxic culture and purity culture within evangelical churches contribute to the protection of abusive leaders and the blaming of victims. Victims of abuse should be supported and encouraged to come forward, and justice and reform should be pursued. The statements made by Gateway Church and the alleged victim, Cindy, reveal the need for transparency and genuine repentance. There is a lack of accountability and hypocrisy within certain religious circles when it comes to handling sexual abuse allegations. Some religious leaders and influencers selectively condemn certain individuals while defending others, based on their theological alignment or personal biases. The focus should be on protecting victims and holding abusers accountable, rather than protecting the reputation of religious institutions. Toxic systems within religious institutions need to be dismantled in order to prioritize the well-being and safety of individuals. Accountability and transparency are essential in creating a healthy and safe environment within religious communities.
