What if the religious right is religiously wrong? That's the question Paul Swearengin wrestles with in his new book, Joseph Comes to Town. This fictional tale considers how Jesus might have engaged people if he had come in our century, to the current political climate of the United States. A former pastor from a politically active marriage, Paul has a unique vantage point to wrestle with this important subject matter and has crafted an engaging story that will make you think about it yourself. He joins Wayne for a discussion about the current state of politics and how it reflects on evangelicals and the Gospel. They also discuss a Time article about how President Trump manipulates the fear of many Christians to solidfy their support. WARNING: If you don't enjoy honest political dialog, feel free to skip this one.
