0:00 0:00

Summary

Is Christian Nationalism Christian? We often hear it’s not. That Christian Nationalists are not true Christians. Tim Whitaker of the New Evangelicals and Andrew dive into this fallacy and a lot more. What’s up with Trump’s musings on getting into Heaven? Does Tim, a devout Christian, think Trump is going to Heaven? And, what’s it like to be part of one of those online viral debates you see clips of on social media.

Meet The Guest

Tim Whitaker

Growing up, Tim always felt at home in evangelical spaces – until years later, when his studying and questions caused him to no longer be welcomed at in his church community. Brokenhearted, but undeterred, Tim continued to pursue a deeper understanding of faith, history, theology and the evangelical church. The more he uncovers, the more he realizes the importance of advocating for the marginalized in the church, exploring the full depth and breadth of Christian faith traditions, and holding toxic churches and leaders accountable.
