Unashamed Truth

Thinking Biblically about Anti-Semitism


Listen Later

In this episode of the Unashamed Truth Podcast, Grant Castleberry is joined by cultural commentator and podcast host Will Spencer for a timely and necessary conversation on the resurgence of anti-Semitism, particularly within segments of the political right.

Will shares his remarkable testimony, from growing up in a Jewish home, to years immersed in New Age spirituality, to his conversion to Christ in 2020. Drawing on history, theology, and cultural analysis, he helps define what anti-Semitism actually is, distinguishing between ethnic hatred and what he calls “worldview anti-Semitism”—the belief that Jews are uniquely responsible for the moral, cultural, and economic decay of the West.

Together, Grant and Will discuss:
• The historical roots of modern anti-Semitic conspiracy theories
• Holocaust denial and why it persists
• The influence of online subcultures and radicalized media ecosystems
• How resentment, bitterness, and scapegoating take hold among young men
• The Israel–Gaza conflict and how Christians should think biblically and soberly about Israel
• Romans 9–11, evangelism to Jewish people, and the dangers of abandoning Christian charity and truth

This episode is both a warning and a pastoral exhortation. Christians are called to reject lies, resist bitterness, love truth, and remain anchored in Scripture—especially when cultural confusion and spiritual deception are on the rise.
