Description

Welcome back, friends! Loads going on in the news, but so much we would want to discuss is in-flux, so we will wait for the dust to settle before we provide you with analysis next week. This week, it's all about a brand new concept: Political Therapeutic Deism. If you've heard of Moral Therapeutic Deism, it's a play on that terminology. We explain what this term means, what it doesn't mean, and how it might be a helpful frame in your day-to-day life, especially as you read the news, hear chatter at church, or discuss politics with a friend. If you're also concerned about Christian Nationalism, we discuss the connections in this episode.
If you want a deeper dive into our thoughts on Christian Nationalism, check out Episode 55.
