Episode notes

I think we often over blame social media thinking if we can just get Twitter to correct that darn algorithm, then everything will be okay. And that's not the case at all. I'm not a historian of American technology, but my understanding is that Twitter was in its infancy in 1861. We were perfectly capable of killing each other well before Twitter reached its full bloom. So we are separating in almost every way you can imagine. And when that happens, we are building a case against each other of radicalism and of grievance.

In front of a packed house at the National Press Club, Curtis Chang, original Good Faith co-host David French, and editor in chief of Christianity Today Russell Moore introduce the After Party project. The project seeks to heal the currently troubled relationship between Christians and politics. The conversation was hosted by Trinity Forum president Cherie Harder. In this wide ranging discussion, they talk about where we as Christians have gone wrong and how we can reform our political mindset with timeless Biblical truths.
