Thinking Out Loud

Why the Minneapolis ICE Shooting Is Dividing Christians So Deeply


Listen Later

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron offer a deep Christian theological analysis of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis involving Renee Nicole Good, examining the tragedy through the lenses of biblical anthropology, moral theology, and cultural analysis rather than partisan outrage. Drawing on thinkers like Augustine, Jonathan Haidt, René Girard, and Michael Polanyi, they explore how Christians should respond to politically charged current events, the tension between what is legal and what is moral, the danger of scapegoating and symbolic thinking, and why silence, prayer, and wisdom can sometimes be more faithful than instant commentary. This conversation is aimed at Christians seeking thoughtful, theologically grounded discussion of current events, Christian ethics, sanctity of life, authority, justice, and how to faithfully navigate polarized culture without surrendering compassion, truth, or hope.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.
