Thinking Biblically about Anti-Semitism

In this episode of the Unashamed Truth Podcast, Grant Castleberry is joined by cultural commentator and podcast host Will Spencer for a timely and necessary conversation on the resurgence of anti-Semitism, particularly within segments of the political right.Will shares his remarkable testimony, from growing up in a Jewish home, to years immersed in New Age spirituality, to his conversion to Christ in 2020. Drawing on history, theology, and cultural analysis, he helps define what anti-Semitism actually is, distinguishing between ethnic hatred and what he calls “worldview anti-Semitism”—the belief that Jews are uniquely responsible for the moral, cultural, and economic decay of the West.Together, Grant and Will discuss:• The historical roots of modern anti-Semitic conspiracy theories• Holocaust denial and why it persists• The influence of online subcultures and radicalized media ecosystems• How resentment, bitterness, and scapegoating take hold among young men• The Israel–Gaza conflict and how Christians should think biblically and soberly about Israel• Romans 9–11, evangelism to Jewish people, and the dangers of abandoning Christian charity and truthThis episode is both a warning and a pastoral exhortation. Christians are called to reject lies, resist bitterness, love truth, and remain anchored in Scripture—especially when cultural confusion and spiritual deception are on the rise.Books Mentioned in the Episode:"Black Sun: Aryan Cults, Esoteric Nazism, and the Politics of Identity"by Nicholas Goodrick-ClarkeA scholarly examination of neo-Nazi ideology, occult Nazism, and modern anti-Semitic movements."KL: A History of the Nazi Concentration Camps" by Nikolaus WachsmannA definitive historical account of the Nazi camp system, based on extensive archival research."Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland" by Christopher R.
