Episode 112 - TIM WHITAKER | New Evangelicals

Send us a text

Ever had a conversation so good, that you had to do it twice? Well, that's exactly what happened with this episode of the Christian AF Podcast featuring Tim Whitaker from The New Evangelicals. That's right, folks. We managed to forget to hit record the first time around (classic us), but trust us, this take is worth the wait.

In this episode, Jesse, Jen, and Evan dive deep with Tim into the chaotic world of modern evangelicalism. Tim shares his journey from growing up in a conservative evangelical environment to founding The New Evangelicals, a digital-first nonprofit that's shaking up the conversation around faith and politics. We explore the messy intersections of theology, social justice, and how the church is (or isn't) stepping up in today's world.

From discussing the problematic ties between faith and politics to the frustrations of church volunteerism, we cover it all—complete with some good ol' fashioned sarcasm, of course. Tim doesn’t shy away from calling out the absurdities within the church, all while sharing a vision for a better way forward.

So, grab your favorite drink (bonus points if it's blueberry coffee), sit back, and join us for a conversation that's as real as it gets. No punches pulled, just honest talk about faith in a complicated world.
