Kingdom Come: How Dominion Theology Hijacked the American Pulpit

from Perspectives: Faith, Science, Politics & Life · host Shane E. Burkett

Send us Fan Mail In this searing episode of Perspectives, host Shane E. Burkett unpacks the growing fusion of Pentecostal dominion theology, prosperity gospel preaching, and American right-wing politics. With bold commentary, spoken word rhythm, and unapologetic analysis, Shane explores how charismatic movements have evolved from fringe revival tents into full-blown political machines—with prophets in pulpits and QR codes on altars.  At the center of this story is Paula White-Cain: televangelist, prosperity preacher, and former spiritual advisor to Donald Trump. Her sermon in a Miami megachurch wasn’t just revival—it was a declaration of theological conquest. Quoting scripture while pledging a $12,000 check on stage, White-Cain urged believers to “take over” society in the name of God’s Kingdom, blending faith, nationalism, and spiritual warfare into a political roadmap for 2024 and beyond.  This episode dives deep into: What Dominion Theology is—and how it twists Genesis 1:28 into a mandate for Christian rule.The Prosperity Gospel’s role in building political loyalty through financial obedience.The emergence of the New Apostolic Reformation and its global influence.How charismatic leaders like White-Cain use dreams, prophecy, and tongues to justify political control.Why this movement threatens religious freedom, democracy, and pluralism in the U.S. From mega-churches to the White House, Shane examines how faith is being used not to redeem, but to reign. It’s not just about votes—it’s about divine appointment. This isn’t salvation; it’s strategy. This isn’t revival; it’s realignment. With spoken word fire and sharp critique, Kingdom Come challenges listeners to look beyond the altar and ask: when prophecy becomes policy, who gets left behind? 🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or your favorite platform.
