Exploring the political implications of a Jesus-centered theology.

    9. Insurrection, Christian Nationalism, and Where Do We Go from Here?

    9. Insurrection, Christian Nationalism, and Where Do We Go from Here?

    Christian Nationalism has revealed itself to be alive and strong over the past several years, perhaps no more than on January 6, 2021 when Jesus 2020 banners and crosses were on display at the insurrectionist storming of the Capitol. With a new President coming and Christian Nationalism on full display, how can disciples of King Jesus continue to be faithful over the next few years?  

    Mentioned in this podcast: 

    - Was Antifa at the Capitol on January 6?

    - What is Christian Realism? 

    - Trump's speech at the Save America Rally on January 6  

    - Restorative Faith

    Check out Asher's podcast, Unfeigned Christianity, where he has risky conversations that help make sense of the world.  

    or Titus' That Jesus Podcast where he and his co-host Dru explore what it means to be a radical apprentice of King Jesus.

    8. How Christians Should Participate in Politics: Matthew Milioni

    8. How Christians Should Participate in Politics: Matthew Milioni

    How do Christians pursue justice? Through politics? If not--if we're not going to run for office, put forward legislation, or even vote, how then do we participate in bringing the Kingdom of God to earth? In this episode, Christopher sits down with church-planter Matthew Milioni to talk about Kingdom Politics, justice, and his journey toward non-violence and Christo-Anarchism.

Flip dab Dab ,

Very interesting subject matter

I’m not an Anabaptist, but a Reformed Baptist and a Personalist. I don’t agree with the total pacifism, but the presentation of it in this series has seriously challenged my presuppositions, worldview, and general ethical maxims. I’ve certainly felt compelled to modify my views after listening.

I found this podcast while searching for personalist 3rd way economics, and though this doesn’t fit that criteria, I haven’t been disappointed at all. Excellent conversations, and interests topics.

(I would love to be involved in an episode if the group is looking for a guest)

Heureux disciple de Jésus ,

Jesus centric

A thoughtful discussion with Milioni. Invigorating. Kingdom mindset. Jesus centric.
