How did a thrice-married businessman with a history far removed from traditional evangelical ideals become an evangelical favorite?

I explore the cultural, societal, and theological factors that have contributed to this unique alliance. From the political goals of the religious right to the rise of Christian nationalism, we’ll uncover what drives this loyalty and what it says about the intersection of faith and politics in America today.

Additionally, I’m including exclusive clips from my interviews with Sarah McCammon, NPR Political Correspondent, and Adam Kinzinger, former U.S. Congressman, as they offer their insights on this dynamic and the broader implications for American society.

Sarah McCammon is a National Political Correspondent for NPR and co-host of the NPR Politics Podcast. Her work focuses on political, social and cultural divides in America, including abortion policy and the intersections of politics and religion. She's also a frequent guest host for NPR news programs.

She has covered several presidential elections, including the 2016 campaign, when she reported on the rise of the Trump movement, divisions within the Republican Party over its future, and the role of religion in those debates. McCammon's reporting has documented the growing political power of the religious right culminating with the overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022, efforts by abortion rights advocates to push back, and the rising tide of white Christian nationalism.

She's frequently called upon to cover breaking news events and national politics. Her work has won numerous awards, among them a 2023 Edward R. Murrow Award for her coverage of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision, a 2023 Wilbur Award for religion reporting, a Gracie Award in 2020 for her reporting on reproductive rights, and a National Press Club Journalism Award for team coverage of the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting in 2018.

McCammon is the author of The Exvangelicals: Loving, Living, and Leaving the White Evangelical Church, a 2024 book that is part memoir and part journalism, about the movement of people who grew up inside the powerful evangelical subculture and ultimately left in response to its increasing politicization.

She has appeared on numerous television programs including CNN's Inside Politics, MSNBC's All In with Chris Hayes, PBS Newshour, and CSPAN's Washington Journal.

Prior to joining NPR in 2015, she reported for NPR Member stations in Georgia, Iowa, and Nebraska. She began her career as newspaper reporter in the Chicago area.

McCammon grew up in Kansas City, Missouri and is a graduate of Trinity College in Deerfield, Illinois.

Nothing like a bit of satanic panic to kick off the new year.

Pastors like Mark Driscoll and Daniel White are labeling the musical Wicked as “demonic” and accusing it of corrupting young minds. But here’s the irony—Wicked is all about challenging fear, prejudice, and black-and-white thinking.

In this video, I dive into their critiques and why they completely miss the mark. As a former fundamentalist, Wicked struck a personal chord with me. Its themes of questioning authority and redefining good and evil mirror real-life struggles within high-control religious communities.

I also explore how Wicked invites us to think critically about the labels we place on others and the motives of those in power. Maybe that’s why some pastors feel so uncomfortable with it—it hits a little too close to home.

Join me as I unpack the controversy, reflect on Wicked’s deeper meaning, and share why this misunderstood musical deserves more credit than it gets from its critics!

In this powerful episode of the Preacher Boys Podcast, I sit down with Beth White, a survivor of a harrowing marriage defined by abuse, gaslighting, and spiritual manipulation. Beth courageously opens up about her ex-husband Justin White's shocking transformation after an ayahuasca trip, where he claimed he was no longer alive but instead inhabited by higher beings.

Beth says that, at times, Justin said he was God; other times, he denied God's existence entirely. He alternated between claiming to be Jesus, an angel of light, or something else altogether. This dangerous delusion culminated in a horrifying act: Justin drugged Beth and their young children in an attempt to bring them into his twisted spiritual visions.

Today, Justin calls himself "Justin Love" and claims to be a spiritual healer.

Beth shares the dark truth about their marriage and the abuse she endured in this gripping conversation. Her bravery in recounting these events sheds light on the devastating impact of spiritual abuse and manipulation.

This episode also revisits prior coverage of Fellowship Baptist Church in Michigan, including interviews with victims and former members, shedding light on a disturbing culture of abuse, cover-ups, and silencing.✖️✖️✖️

In this episode, Reah Bravo reflects on her time working for Charlie Rose, her decision to speak out about his sexual harassment, and the deeply ingrained cultural norms that allowed such behavior to persist. Reah shares her journey of self-discovery, exploring why she remained silent and complicit in the face of abuse, and how societal programming often conditions us to accept, or even enable, unacceptable behavior.

Through the lens of her experiences and her critically acclaimed book Complicit, Reah examines the larger systemic issues that perpetuate abuse in workplaces and beyond. This conversation delves into uncomfortable but essential questions about power dynamics, accountability, and the cultural forces that continue to enable misconduct.
