In this episode of The Roys Report, Julie Roys investigates why the once seemingly united evangelical movement is splintering into sharply opposed factions.
The conversation centers on the high‑profile upheaval at Bethlehem Baptist Church, where John Piper’s successor, Jason Meyer, resigned, citing a rising “neo‑fundamentalism” in the church. Julie shares leaked emails and new evidence that expose deep tensions at Bethlehem over race, culture, and alleged abuse—tensions that mirror broader conflicts across American evangelicalism.
Guests Michael Graham and Skyler Flowers, pastors and coauthors of the influential article “The Six-Way Fracturing of Evangelicalism,” unpack the emerging camps within evangelicalism—such as white nationalists, “woke” Christians, and ex‑evangelicals—and explain what’s really driving these divides.
Together, they explore:
