French Friday: The Solution to Partisan Christianity

from The SkyePod

New data finds that almost half of Gen Z adults won't consider going to church because of Christians' support for Donald Trump. David French and Skye Jethani wonder what the research means for the majority of evangelical churches that avoid anything political, and why that may actually be part of the problem. They also discuss the rise of socialism on the political left and why JD Vance's recent memoir suggests socialism may be just as popular on the political right. Plus, what America can learn from the goodness of Dolly Parton.   0:00 - Theme Song   0:17 - Mourning Dolly Parton   9:23 - Is Polarization Keeping Gen Z Out of Church?   21:02 - Should the Church Be Political?   31:04 - The Rise of Socialists   50:21 - Can the Middle Hold Together?   1:04:32 - End Credits
