Highest Power: Church + State

It’s rare to hear such a deep understanding of the theology and social dynamics at work in Christian Nationalism/Supremacism. The topics are timely and the perspective Rick brings is always well thought out, fair, and connected to the theology driving CNs. Excellent podcast.

Thanks for your interview with Sarah Bader. Unbelievably tragic that she had to explain a woman’s concerns will not be listened to, thus necessitating a man’s voice (Bell) though he is fraught with baggage. Even a discredited man (Bell) is listened to, respected, and applauded while a woman is ignored and physically shoved aside. Thank you for highlighting this disturbing phenomenon affecting real people in real time.

Here here, Rick! You say what needs to be said at a time when Christians have once again embraced the same old lie that God is not enough. If you want your faith challenging, listen up. If you’re willing to settle for a lesser truth, listen to something else.

Wow. I have followed Rick’s writings for a while now and was thrilled when this podcast came alive. Rick strives and does a great job reporting the facts and helping walk through everything from Christianity and politics to being a voice for victims of abuse. Rick is fair and at the same time doesn’t waiver from support of abuse victims when credible. From all the writings of abuse and misbehavior across the theological conservative spectrum to now the abuse that has surfaced from progressive ex/ new style of evangelicals. Great job Rick and I wish your podcast well.
