  • 615: Taylor Swift's Sacrilege & the Future of the Republican Party with Peter Wehner

    Swifties are celebrating the record-breaking release of two new albums, but some conservative Christians are not happy. They're accusing Taylor Swift of mocking Christianity and promoting witchcraft. Our resident Swiftie, Kaitlyn Schiess, explains the controversy. Then, former presidential speechwriter and contributor to The Atlantic, Pete Wehner, talks with Skye about the future of the Republican Party. Will the Trump spell ever break? Also this week—the end of America's monoculture, and how dumb were dinosaurs?

  • French Friday: Israel's Error and College Protests

    The war in Gaza has carried on for longer than expected, and David French is starting to see parallels between Israel and the US military in the Iraq War—he thinks Israel could learn from what went wrong in Iraq. Then, David and Skye discuss the student protests and how universities are handling them—what's civil disobedience and what's lawlessness when it comes to protest?

  • 614: The Rise of Raunchy Christians & Avoiding Civil War with Tracy McKenzie

    Previously puritanical evangelicals are increasingly embracing profanity and lewd content. A recent New York Times article explores possible explanations ranging from politics and the culture wars, to the internet and the decline of churches. Also, fewer people are reading books, and that's a challenge for Christian traditions rooted in literacy, education, and the Bible. How do we make disciples in a post-literate culture? Then, more people are comparing our divisive culture to America just before the Civil War. Are we heading toward a national divorce—or worse? Historian Tracy McKenzie is back to share lessons and warnings from 19th century America. Plus, new developments as the turducken turns.

  • 613: Driscoll, Dawkins, & Political Discipleship with Curtis Chang

    Atheist Richard Dawkins has said he doesn't believe one word of the Christian faith, but he now considers himself a "cultural Christian" and wants to defend the Christian values of his country against the influence of Islam and immigrants. Does this represent an alignment between the New Atheists and Christian Nationalists? Curtis Chang shares about "The After Party"—the new curriculum he's developed with David French and Russel Moore to help Christians focus on hope and humility rather than partisanship. Also this week, Mark Driscoll gets booted from a men's conference. And another infraction by a Florida man with a Bible.

  • 612: The Religious Vacuum, Politics, & the Powers with N.T. Wright

    This week we're discussing a series of articles exploring what we're gaining and losing as fewer Americans are committed to religion and attending church. Even some non-believers are beginning to worry that the decline in religion may not be good for society, but does it also represent a new opportunity for the message of Christianity? Then, N.T. Wright is back to discuss his new book with co-author Michael Bird, "Jesus and the Powers." While everyone knows mixing faith and politics can be dangerous, Wright says there's also a danger when we refuse to mix them. He talks to Skye about what the Bible says on matters of church and state, and why we should defend liberal democracy despite its many problems. Also this week: Is the sun alive? And a Florida man shares the Bible at Walgreens on Easter.

  • 611: Trump's Bible, Biden's Easter, and Climate Change for Christians with Katharine Hayhoe

    The newest Holy Post team member, Esau McCaulley, joins Phil and Skye to discuss two stories that caused outrage from both ends of the political spectrum during Holy Week. Trump is selling an American flag-wrapped Bible, and the Biden administration honored "Transgender Visibility Day" on Easter. And why are Catholic Charities being attacked for helping immigrants? Then Skye talks to atmospheric scientist Katharine Hayhoe about how her evangelical faith led her to become a climate scientist. She says combating global warming is part of our call to love our neighbors and care for the least of these. Plus, an "emerging behavior" on Twitch grabs Phil's attention.

  • French Friday: TikTok Ban & Who Should Hold the Reins of Social Media

    A recent bill to ban TikTok was passed in the House with bipartisan support. Skye talks with David French about the arguments for and against the bill, the likelihood of it passing the Senate, and why Trump claims China is America's biggest threat, and yet he still opposes the TikTok ban. Then, Skye and David break down two recent Supreme Court cases about social media content regulation. Should social media companies have complete control over what is posted on their platforms, and is it ok for the government to ask these companies to take down certain posts?

  • 610: Learning to Disagree Respectfully with John Inazu

    Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade almost two years ago, the debate about abortion has taken on new dimensions. Factions within the pro-life camp are now battling each other. Could they break apart the Religious Right? Then, Kaitlyn interviews professor of Law and Religion, John Inazu, about his new book, "Learning to Disagree." He says our differences don't have to become divisions, which is a timely message in an election year. Plus, is Indonesia hiding a secret island of Hobbits? And a new documentary asks if Jesus was a vegetarian?

    After a number of difficult years and dismal statistics, a new report from Barna says pastors are on the mend. Another book about "ex-vangelicals" has been released. Does it have anything new to add to the conversation? And a record number of Latinos in the U.S. are leaving Catholicism to become Pentecostal evangelicals. What does it mean for the future of the church? Then, Holy Post Media's CEO, Jon Houghton, joins Skye to discuss how he's leading the organization, why Christian media needs to change, and the new projects launching this year. Plus, Wrinkle the duck, Albert the alligator, and an "audacious scheme" with super sheep.

  • 608: Defining the Gospel & Who's a "Real" Christian with Matthew Bates

    Earlier this year, John MacArthur said that Martin Luther King Jr. was "a nonbeliever who misrepresented everything about Christ and the gospel." Last week, Justin Giboney responded with an article in CT explaining why MacArthur was wrong about MLK. This leads Phil, Kaitlyn, and Skye to ask when is it appropriate to define who is, and who is not, a true Christian, and what criteria should we use? Theologian Matthew Bates is back to discuss his new book, "Why the Gospel?" He defines six popular "malformed" gospels, and why bypassing the importance of Jesus' kingship is dangerous for the church. Also this week—A Christian musician from Ireland claims Taylor Swift is satanic, and beware of the bonnacon!
