Number 1: Politics & Pluralism with Chuck Todd
We are two months away from the midterm elections, and with multiple clergy running for office, faith is playing a larger role. Are evangelicals souring on MAGA? Will the Democrats close the "God gap?" Skye is joined by former chief political analyst for NBC News and moderator of Meet the Press, Chuck Todd, to discuss the intersection of faith and politics. Their conversation also turns to their diverse religious upbringings, the role of public education, backlash against big tech, and how to repair our broken, corrupt political system. Once named "The Most Powerful Journalist in Washington" by GQ magazine, Todd now hosts The Chuck ToddCast, featuring in-depth interviews with political figures, experts, and thought leaders. 0:00 - Theme Song 0:26 - Empty Nesters 2:16 - Clergy Running as Democrats 16:06 - Inflection Point in Evangelicalism 27:36 - Importance of Pluralism 36:48 - This episode is available only for Holy Post Plus subscribers.

Number 2: French Friday: The Solution to Partisan Christianity
New data finds that almost half of Gen Z adults won't consider going to church because of Christians' support for Donald Trump. David French and Skye Jethani wonder what the research means for the majority of evangelical churches that avoid anything political, and why that may actually be part of the problem. They also discuss the rise of socialism on the political left and why JD Vance's recent memoir suggests socialism may be just as popular on the political right. Plus, what America can learn from the goodness of Dolly Parton. 0:00 - Theme Song 0:17 - Mourning Dolly Parton 9:23 - Is Polarization Keeping Gen Z Out of Church? 21:02 - Should the Church Be Political? 31:04 - The Rise of Socialists 50:21 - Can the Middle Hold Together? 1:04:32 - End Credits

Number 3: Kids & College with Ryan Burge
It's back to school and off to college season. Sociologists and master of "Graphs About Religion," Ryan Burge, is back with new data about which college majors are the most and least devoted to Christianity. He also has stats about declining birth rates even among religious groups, and why some kids raised with and without faith switch their beliefs as adults. 0:11 - Theme Song 2:17 - Religiosity Among Different College Majors 10:42 - Finance Bros are Major Church-Goers 20:14 - Deconstruction and College 27:32 - This episode is available only for Holy Post Plus subscribers.

Number 4: SkyeDive: Hypocrisy
Jesus raised Lazarus from the grave, but Lazarus was not transformed. He was still mortal, subject to the curse, and destined to die again. In other words, Lazarus was resuscitated; he was not truly resurrected. This message contrasts the difference between being rescued by God and being reborn, and asks whether we have accepted a lesser gospel of mere resuscitation when the life we are called to is one of transformation possible through the power of Christ's resurrection. 0:05 - Theme Song 0:20 - Intro 4:42 - John Newton's Resuscitation 10:00 - Two Tombs 14:01 - Jesus Came Back Different 18:52 - This episode is available only for Holy Post Plus subscribers.

Number 5: Drew's News: Spiritual Puberty, AI Sermons, Exorcisms, and Deconstruction
In perhaps the most faith-centric Drew's News yet, Drew Dyck brings us the rise of A.I. sermons, the rise of exorcisms, and the delayed rise of an airplane where a woman decided to evangelize to the unenthusiastic captive audience. Skye and Drew also speculate if the brief period of lucidity dementia patients experience shortly before death points to the existence of the human soul. And why does the church favor people going through "spiritual puberty?" All this and more on the new Drew's news! 0:00 - Theme Song 2:52 - Is Deconstruction a meaningless word now? 15:03 - Florida Evangelist Kicked Off Alaska Flight 27:12 - Terminal Lucidity 29:31 - This episode is available only for Holy Post Plus subscribers.
