Read MoreKeith Simon and Russell Moore discusses the shift in the pro-life movement, the challenges of the post-Christian right, controversy and change in his own life, the fracturing in the church, the loss of trust in the church, the importance of repentance and a credible Christian voice, the perception of Christian nationalism in politics, and the issue of easy believism and substantive faith. In this conversation, Russell Moore discusses the challenges facing the evangelical church in America and offers insights into how to address them. He emphasizes the need to reconnect with the core teachings of Christianity and to prioritize the gospel over cultural trends. Moore also highlights the importance of humility, dependence on the Holy Spirit, and a renewed focus on the Bible. He encourages Christians to learn from their critics and to seek God's guidance in navigating the complexities of the current cultural landscape. Ultimately, Moore envisions a healthier evangelical church that is marked by a deep love for Christ and a commitment to truth.
Takeaways
- The pro-life movement has experienced a shift from a broad-based movement focused on human dignity and vulnerability to a more partisan issue, which has led to a loss of support in both red and blue states.
- The post-Christian right has emerged as a result of cultural changes and the secularization of American society, leading to a reevaluation of traditional Christian values and the rise of controversial figures.
- Controversy and change are inevitable in the church, but it is important to maintain a credible Christian voice and model repentance in order to address issues such as sexual abuse, racism, and political extremism.

Trump’s RNC Tells Social Conservatives: “You’re Fired!”
If you watched the Republican National Convention, you noticed several things that seemed… out of place. A Hindu prayer. Hulk Hogan. And a platform that’s strayed from conventional conservative values, including traditional marriage and the sanctity of life. It’s clear: The “new” Republican party is here. And its “Trumpublican” values seem to have sidelined social conservatives. So, what do Christians do now that there is no pro-life party? Will they stand for truth over tribal alliances? Today, Keith and Patrick team up to discuss how Trump seems to have turned his back on the evangelicals who made him President. How will conservatives and Christians respond? Will they change their principles? Or, finally, choose truth over tribe?

Will Trump’s Assassination Attempt Finally Wake Us Up?
On July 13, 2024, former President Donald Trump was almost assassinated at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. While it’s not our place to weigh in on many aspects of this horrific attack, we do want to focus on the church: How should Christians respond? On today’s episode, Keith and Patrick issue a call for Christians to think carefully and clearly, put truth over tribe, and realize that our response can have the power to shape the future of the country. They examine how our political climate has led to this point, explaining how our recent political rhetoric has reveled in catastrophizing and how this has not been the norm of civil discourse over the past several decades. They break down how it’s possible to be so violently divided from the “other side” and how political violence, in general, is increasing in both parties. They end by providing practical steps that Christians should take in this moment. Will this assassination attempt be an inflection point? Will the tribalized church finally wake up?

You Don’t Deconstruct from Jesus with Brant Hansen
Life is hard. God is good. Let’s dance. That’s the mantra (and the book title) of today’s podcast guest, Brant Hansen. Brant is an award-winning author and radio show host whose life provides a tangible example of the joy often missing in Christianity today. But his joy doesn’t stem from ignorance or a life free of trauma. Hear him explain to Keith how even though he could have deconstructed his faith, he never could fathom deconstructing from Jesus himself. He uses his own “strange” experiences to illustrate Jesus’s model of Christian neighboring and radical generosity. He also touches on gender roles and a true, biblical vision for masculinity.
