The first week of the second Trump administration has seen refugees cut off and January 6th criminals cut loose. Franklin Graham declared in his inauguration prayer that God himself had chosen the President. The MAGA faithful applauded this mix of Christian faith and politics, but when Bishop Budde asked the President to “show mercy” to frightened people during her homily at the National Cathedral, she was accused of everything from political activism to witchcraft. Phil has a theory about what these two religious leaders at the inauguration reveal about the state of American Christianity. Then Matthew Soerens from World Relief is back to discuss Trump’s immediate shut down of all refugee resettlement, including cutting all financial aid previously promised to refugees already in the U.S. What’s behind the President’s aggressive policy, and how can we practically help our neighbors abandoned by the government that brought them here? Also this week—reanimated squirrels and Skye wears a red hat.

Grace, Mercy, Repentance and Redemption have been an essential part of Evangelical theology for centuries.
To see leading U.S. White Evangelicals in the last couple of weeks abuse these concepts, is a great embarrassment ..................
With 80% of U.S. White Evangelicals voting for Trump.... it is just sad to see what has happened to to the Evangelical movement...
Thanks to the Holy Post folks for having the courage to speak clearly and biblically......
I think the word Phil's looking for to explain the great difference between sermon-on-the-mount Christians and "hierarchial" Christians is "CASTE" Christianity. Read "Caste: The Origins of our Discontents by Isael Wilkerson, Pulitzer Prize winner of "The Warmth of Other Suns". Hierarchial Christianity or Caste Christianity, is a perversion of the gospel that is utterly anathma. Because of Jesus, all are equal before God and come to the communion table as one family, no male, female, greek, jew, free or slave. Caste systems, however, divide the communion table with hatred, suspicion, slander and gossip. Caste utilizes ways people can retain power and keep the status quo by appealing to religion (God or the gods ordain authority of one gender over anothe…
Y'all know Steve Bezner... he's a white, evangelical, male pastor who sounds so much like Budde. I am grateful for him. Wish there were more of him.
Also, Kaitlyn, I now view the YT versions of these podcasts solely to watch your expressions ;)
As a history and government teacher - and I taught Georgia history for years- I completely agree with Phil about his observations about the created order v the marginalized. Unfortunately this hierarchical plantation views have made its way into some Christian views.
